"Brother Yan, why don't we call the police first? Have Officer Xia Zhi arrest Dong Xi and Zhou Mingyuan, and then issue an arrest warrant for Brother Wei!" Long Feicheng suggested.
Yan Shouyi nodded, "Let's do as you say. Go make the call."
Just as Long Feicheng was about to make the call, the female ghost suddenly blocked his path. Long Feicheng shivered and chuckled nervously, "Sister, don't worry, the bad people who killed you will soon get their retribution!"
"But... I'm not reconciled..."
The female ghost said with her head down, "With the power of Dong Ye's family, even if the matter is exposed, he'll at most serve ten to twenty years in prison... I'm not reconciled to letting him go just like that!"
Sensing that the female ghost's emotions were not quite right, Yan Shouyi stepped forward and said coldly,
"The mortal world has its own justice. I can help you get revenge on Dong Xi in other ways, but you absolutely cannot take revenge with your own hands. Otherwise, you won't be able to reincarnate, and you might even have to suffer punishment in hell!"
"Dong Ye killed me, what's wrong with me killing him? Why should I be punished? What kind of logic is that!" the female ghost asked angrily.
"When will the cycle of revenge ever end? Everything is destined. The grievances between you and Dong Ye didn't just start in this lifetime. But if you choose to seek revenge in a different way this lifetime, your grievances will be resolved. Otherwise, the cycle of reincarnation will just repeat itself!"
The female ghost calmed down. She seemed to understand Yan Shouyi's meaning. She gritted her teeth and asked, "Then how do you plan to get revenge on him?"
"I plan to..."
*Bang!!*
Before Yan Shouyi could finish speaking, the dormitory door was violently kicked open. A dark figure burst into the room, followed by a deafening gunshot!
*Boom!*
Sand and marbles rolled all over the floor, many of them splashing onto Yan Shouyi and Long Feicheng, causing them to wince in pain.
Long Feicheng, an old hand, immediately shouted, "He's holding a homemade cannon. Get down!"
The two quickly hid under the bed frame. The female ghost also quickly disappeared with the ghost infant. The intruder then fired two more shots fiercely.
After that, the dormitory fell silent.
Who was the person who suddenly broke in?
Why did he start shooting without asking any questions?!
Yan Shouyi and Long Feicheng were each pinned under the beds on opposite sides of the dormitory. It was so dark that they could barely see each other's faces.
Suddenly, Yan Shouyi felt something warm and liquid touch his hand.
It was blood!
Yan Shouyi managed to roll over to see the blind spot he couldn't see before. He saw Zhou Yuanming lying in a pool of blood. There was a large hole in his chest, and his heart was clearly severely damaged.
He opened his mouth and tried to reach out to grab Yan Shouyi, but soon, he succumbed to exhaustion and took his last breath.
The intruder's target was Zhou Mingyuan?
*Bang!*
Another shot rang out. The bed board in front of Yan Shouyi shattered, and marbles scattered across the floor.
"Come out!!"
The person's arrogant voice sounded, punctuated by the occasional banging on the bed frame.
*Bang!*
The bed board in front of Long Feicheng was also smashed!
"Come out for me!! I know you're in there!"
There were only six beds in the dormitory, and two of them had been smashed. The next shot the assailant fired would have a fifty-fifty chance of hitting either Yan Shouyi or Long Feicheng!
Suddenly, the female ghost appeared and lunged at the intruder, but as soon as she touched him, she was forcibly repelled by some force.
"Since I dared to come, I naturally know what's in this dormitory. How could I not have any precautions? Stop hiding and come out!"
The person shot through another bed board, getting closer and closer to Yan Shouyi and them.
Long Feicheng's face was extremely tense. He kept signaling Yan Shouyi with his eyes, urging him to think of a solution quickly.
Yan Shouyi thought of something and quickly rummaged through his satchel for a palm-sized wooden figurine.
He quickly chanted an incantation at the wooden figurine and then threw it towards the balcony.
The sound of the assailant's footsteps was already very, very close, stopping right above Yan Shouyi.
"Die for me!"
This was the moment!
The wooden figurine thrown by Yan Shouyi towards the balcony suddenly transformed into a human figure of the same size as Yan Shouyi!
The intruder was startled and instinctively raised his gun to attack. The marbles hit Yan Shouyi's figure, and the figure dissipated, leaving only a shattered wooden figurine!
"Little Long, get him!"
Yan Shouyi seized the opportunity, crawled out from under the bed, and swept his leg horizontally, kicking the assailant to the ground!
Long Feicheng also quickly climbed out, grabbed the wooden stick he was going to use to stab Zhou Mingyuan, and fiercely hit the assailant's arm.
The person screamed in pain and involuntarily loosened his grip on the gun.
Yan Shouyi kicked the gun away and then held his Zanpakuto to the assailant's neck, saying coldly, "Brother Wei, after all these years, you are the first person I have misjudged."
The person who had broken into the dormitory was indeed Brother Wei.
He had shed his usual flippant demeanor, his face was contorted, and his eyes were dark, looking as if he hadn't slept well for several nights.
For the past few days, he had been hiding in a corner of Shanghang Art School, because he knew clearly that after Principal Tang was arrested, he would be next.
What made Brother Wei even more uneasy was seeing Yan Shouyi and the others come out of the girls' dormitory unharmed that day.
He guessed that Yan Shouyi, like Zhou Mingyuan, was someone with abilities, so once Zhou Mingyuan was arrested, he would have no escape.
That's why he came to the dormitory tonight with his homemade cannon. Unexpectedly, he overheard Zhou Mingyuan betraying him.
So, he decided to go all out, broke into the dormitory, and intended to kill everyone!
His first target was, of course, Zhou Mingyuan!
Now Zhou Mingyuan was dead, but he had still fallen into Yan Shouyi's hands.
Brother Wei said resentfully, "Why couldn't you have just been a good security team captain? Why did you have to meddle in other people's business?"
"That's not something you need to worry about," Yan Shouyi said coldly.
Long Feicheng behind him suddenly cursed, "Damn it, Brother Yan, Zhou Mingyuan is dead!"
"I know," Yan Shouyi sighed. He had already discovered that Zhou Mingyuan had taken his last breath while hiding under the bed.
The troublesome part was that Chen Dawei's soul was still in Zhou Mingyuan's possession. Now that Zhou Mingyuan was dead, it would be even harder for him to find the soul.
Brother Wei suddenly sneered, "I know where Zhou Mingyuan's altar is."
"You know?"
Long Feicheng immediately rushed to Brother Wei, grabbed his collar, and asked, "Speak quickly, don't force me to hit you!"
"I'll tell you, but you have to agree to one condition," Brother Wei said coldly, "Let me go."
"Impossible."
Yan Shouyi shook his head and said, "You have more than one life on your hands. You've long been a fugitive. You've been waiting for this day for a long time, haven't you?"
Brother Wei was taken aback, not expecting Yan Shouyi to have seen through his past.
That's right, he had killed people many years ago.
Back in his hometown, he ran with petty hooligans, shot and killed two people, then fled to Rongcheng, forged his identity, and worked as a security guard at Shanghang Art School for so many years.
Because he had killed people, he was very low-key. Even when a piece of trash like Gao Junming defecated on his head, he would just smile and endure it.
But in private, Brother Wei was ruthless and greedy.
He was involved in the Huang Song buried body case and the girls' dormitory case.
He was even involved in Chen Dawei's soul being lured away. It was he who tricked Chen Dawei into going to the dormitory. He tried to trick Yan Shouyi and Long Feicheng in the same way, but unexpectedly, Yan Shouyi had abilities, and his wicked schemes failed.
Brother Wei snorted coldly and said, "If you don't let me go, I'll die before I tell you where Zhou Mingyuan's altar is. You'll never find Chen Dawei's soul!"
"You...!"
Long Feicheng choked with anger and punched Brother Wei, knocking him unconscious.
"This bastard's head is really tough!" Long Feicheng rubbed his fist and said resentfully, "Brother Yan, what should we do now?"
Yan Shouyi was not anxious. He said, "Call Officer Xia and have her clean up the mess. As for where Zhou Mingyuan's altar is, just ask him directly."
Long Feicheng was stunned, "But Zhou Mingyuan is already dead!"
"Only the body is dead, his soul is still here!"
After Yan Shouyi finished speaking, he shouted towards the outside of the door, "Stop hiding outside. Didn't you want to help? Your Lu Shan sect is quite skilled at summoning souls. This task is for you!"
