The Exorcist

Chapter 4: 2Gu Bar

Xiaoxia woke up in shock.

It's a nightmare again to torment her!

She was sweating all over and wanted to lift the quilt and get out of bed to get a thirsty glass of water. But she didn't dare to leave the bed, at least the warmth made her feel safe. The fluorescent meter on the bedside table indicated that the time was 2:40. The dim light of the hands and the ticking sound made people feel as if something was approaching the bed.

This made Xiao Xia more deeply buried in the bed, and finally her whole body retracted, removing her heartbeat and hearing nothing.

She shouldn't be greedy for cheap and rent this shady little house without sunlight. It used to be that nothing prevented her from sleeping peacefully after taking this case recently. Maybe she should get married or find a boyfriend to live with so she won't be so scared. Although it was just a nightmare, the real feeling was not something that a coward like her could bear.

How about ten thousand miles? But they are too familiar with it, thinking about lying on a bed with such a person, it feels embarrassing to get goose bumps. No way, no way to change another person. How about-Ruan Zhan?

Ruan Zhan's name shocked Xiao Xia and even passed the fright of nightmares.

Why do you think of him? She had only met this person a few hours ago and had a bad impression. Is it because you have only seen it, so you have residual consciousness? It must be so!

But is he really psychic?

Wan Li would not lie to her, but she really didn't realize that he had this ability. Her intuition has always been correct and there is no reason to go wrong this time. But what if it's wrong? What if he is really psychic? Then he can help her!

Why didn't you find it and didn't say a word to him!

I always get into trouble like this and give up halfway. If you talk to Ruan Zhan, he can help her if he can be psychic. It's better than having nowhere to ask for help after a nightmare.

It was true that she could no longer burn incense and worship the Buddha. She had already done it, but the Buddha must be very busy so she couldn't take care of her. She has to think of other ways or she will have a nervous breakdown. She will probably hang up without waiting for the case to be over or the director comes back and transfers the case.

Otherwise, I will find Wanli tomorrow to see if it is a psychological problem. If it doesn't work, try again with Ruan Zhan. Although it's not very reliable, at any rate-a dead horse should be a living horse doctor!

Xiaoxia didn't find Wanli the next day. This even made her think that he was avoiding her, but then remembered that every Tuesday is the day when Wanli fulfills his duty as a guest professor. So she had no choice but to go to the night return bar by herself.

When she arrived, she saw Ruan Zhan opening the store door only at two o'clock in the afternoon. His skin is healthy, wheat-colored, and not pale as a nocturnal animal.

"Can I go in now?" Xiao Xia asked, standing three meters away from Ruan Zhan.

"I just opened the door and it hasn't officially opened yet-but-okay." Ruan Zhan frowned invisibly in a please gesture. He recognized this woman as a stranger who came last night, but why didn't she say a word to him yesterday but came back so early today? I hope she didn't come to pester him or make trouble.

Xiaoxia walked into the bar and was empty because there was no one. And because the glass in this shop is all kind of art glass, the afternoon sun can't even illuminate it. The entire space inside is dark and faint. There is a huge gossip-shaped decoration made of transparent tubes on the facing wall. She didn't see that last night, probably because of the light, but now it's dark and can see clearly.

Ruan Zhan took a long time to follow up, but Xiao Xia didn't feel nervous by staying alone in a closed empty space as usual, and her heart was frustrating, which made her think that maybe her judgment yesterday was too sloppy.

"Where's your buddy?"

"They are work-study college students, if you find them after four in the afternoon."

"No, I won't look for them. But you guys seem to close in the middle of the night. Will it affect their studies?" Xiao Xia suddenly stopped. I have already walked to the bar and went there to find a seat and sit down. "My surname is Yue Yue Xiaoxia, a lawyer from Changkong Law Firm."

Ruan Zhan was taken aback for a moment. "I'm not in trouble, am I?"

"No, it's not like that." Xiaoxia hurriedly shook her head. "That's just my career. I have nothing to do with my career. I am - I am - I have something to do with you. Is it okay?"

"Of course. But what do you want to drink first, Miss Yue?"

"What do you usually drink at this time?"

"It's a little bit early now, most people drink coffee."

"I don't like coffee bitter! Give me soda orange flavor or mineral water will do."

Ruan Zhan didn't speak but smiled and then handed her a glass of orange soda. This woman has the taste of a child easy to deal with.

"What can you do with me?" he asked.

"Um-do you know Wanli? He said you are good friends so-so he asked me to come to you." Xiao Xia hesitated to make a request to a stranger. It's all because Wanli's weird refusal to accompany her makes her have to face these embarrassments alone, and now she has no choice but to speak out. "I have trouble saying that you have the ‘ability’ to help me."

When Ruan Zhan heard Wanli's name, he knew that something was wrong and he was in big trouble!

Wan Li and his friends were the only people in the world who knew his secrets for many years, but they never revealed anything about him. But this time, even though Wan Li knows better than anyone how much he dislikes mentioning his ‘ability’ and even more dislikes using it, why should he hit someone to seek his help? This female lawyer named Yue Xiaoxia is someone in Wanli who can make him betray the oath? Or something unsolvable happened to her? What does this have to do with the weak Yang Huo on her body?

"I'm very happy to be able to help Miss Yue, I'm afraid that I am powerless." Ruan Zhan had countless thoughts in his heart, but he still had a harmless look on his face. "Why don't you tell me if there is any trouble? Not for help."

Xiao Xia hesitated for a moment and then told Ruan Zhan the inexplicable nightmares, weird hallucinations and feelings she had had since taking over the case. She looked at his face expecting a hint of information, but his face was expressionless and his eyes were like a deep black pool, as if anything you throw in would disappear without a trace without leaving a trace.

"Did I hit the evil?" she asked.

"Fight against evil?" Ruan Zhan smiled in disbelief. "Ms. Yue is a lawyer. She should be calm and logical and won't believe these nonsense, right? In my opinion, it might be too much pressure and accepting some passive psychological cues. I'm not a professional psychologist like Wan Li, but I think you should not think too much and stay away from this and relax."

"It would be great if I could, but I can't let it go now."

"Then-I'm afraid I can't do anything." Ruan Zhan said in a regretful tone. "You are a friend of Wanli, that is, my friend. I wish I could contribute a little bit, but I really can't."

"You don't want to help me!" Xiao Xia blurted out.

"No, no, I'm very willing, I hope I can! But-I don't know how Wanli told you, he is probably too exaggerated. I usually just read some books on Feng Shui, Zhou Yi, and other pure hobbies. Special abilities, don’t listen to him talking nonsense."

"Can't you really help?"

"I'm sorry. UU reading www.uukanshu.com"

"Please help me!" Xiaoxia begged. In fact, with her impatient temper, she should have turned her head and left. What's more, the more she talked to him, the more intuitively she felt that what Wanli said was right, he must have something to do, but he just refused to help. She shouldn't say a word with this kind of unloving person, but the so-called ‘the situation is better than ever’, she has to keep a low voice.

"sorry."

Seeing him still pretending to be innocent, Xiao Xia knew that it was useless to say anything.

"Well, when I haven't been here. Goodbye." She walked out angrily and deliberately didn't give Ruan Zhan soda money. I wanted to know that drinking his most expensive bottle of wine could compensate for his mental loss and material loss. This kind of person is really unwilling to think about it without letting him go.

Ruan Zhan watched Xiao Xia leave without any guilt in his heart. This young lady provoked the evil, and it was all her luck. What did her do with him? The first rule of his life is to just ignore anyone's nostalgia and take care of himself quietly.

As for Wanli, the **** who betrayed his friend, he ignored him. Believe that he himself will send it to the door to explain.
