Chapter 7
At half past six, Shen Chun took out her phone to check the news.
The car accident in the north of the city had already been reported. Because the scene was too gory, the photos had been pixelated. However, through some clues, Shen Chun still recognized that the person in the car accident wasn’t Fu Shi.
This person was quite smart. At least, he listened to her.
Shen Chun had just heaved a sigh of relief when she received a call from the hospital.
“Hello, Miss Shen!” The doctor sounded anxious. “Did you take your brother away?”
She expected an affirmative answer from Shen Chun, but she was disappointed.
“No, did something happen to my brother?”
“I’m sorry!” The doctor was so anxious that he was about to cry. “Shen Chi went missing. We’ve searched all the corners, but we haven’t found any trace of him.”
“How can this be?!” Shen Chun’s expression changed. “I’ll go over immediately.”
“Okay, okay.” Before hanging up, the doctor said hurriedly, “We’ll continue searching.”
Shen Chun changed her clothes, hailed a taxi, and immediately rushed to the hospital.
On the day Mr. and Mrs. Shen passed away, Shen Chi was hospitalized because of a sudden infection. Coupled with gastrointestinal problems, he had been staying in the hospital up until now. After occupying the original Host’s body, Shen Chun went to the hospital a few times, but Shen Chi was sleeping almost every time, so the two of them didn’t interact much.
She had planned to visit the little fellow again today and pick him up, but she didn’t expect him to disappear from the hospital.
When they arrived at the hospital, the doctor in charge of Shen Chi explained the situation to Shen Chun, “An hour ago, we brought Little Chi out to play with a ball. He took the initiative to go to the corner to pick up the ball. I felt that there was no danger, so I let him go, but he didn’t come back even after half an hour.”
“We checked the hospital’s surveillance footage and confirmed that he didn’t appear anywhere else, nor was he picked up by you or your uncle. It’s as if he disappeared from the face of the earth.”
The doctor couldn’t believe it, but that was the truth.
Shen Chun could only go to the place where Shen Chi had disappeared to investigate first. It was just an ordinary corner. There were no traps or hidden holes, but Shen Chun keenly sensed that a wisp of sinister energy had been left on the plant in the corner.
Evil spirits were causing trouble again.
Seeing Shen Chun’s serious expression, the doctor thought that she was angry and quickly explained, “Miss Shen, don’t worry. Our hospital will definitely find Little Chi.” With that, he muttered, “I don’t know what’s going on recently, but there have been more than ten missing children.”
“How many exactly?”
It took a few seconds for the doctor to realize what Shen Chun was asking. He replied, “There are eleven missing children.”
Shen Chi was the twelfth. Twelve children’s souls were enough to nourish the evil spirit. Today was the 15th, and the blood moon provided more power to the evil spirits.
At this moment, Shen Chi was probably doomed.
Shen Chun tried to calculate Shen Chi’s exact location, but the hexagram was covered by fog and couldn’t be seen clearly.
The evil spirit’s capabilities exceeded her expectations. Thinking of this, Shen Chun didn’t dare to delay things. She took out a compass from her backpack and bit her index finger. Then, she smeared the blood on the compass. This body was blood-related to Shen Chi. This couldn’t be changed by anything.
The compass was activated by an invisible red line and spun quickly. In the end, it pointed east.
After searching through the Host’s memories, Shen Chun remembered that it was a factory that had been abandoned because of ghosts. At first, the factory attracted countless ghostbusters, but after that group of people fell seriously ill, it became a haunted place that no one dared to go to.
If nothing else happened, Shen Chi was probably in the abandoned factory.
She found an excuse and said, “I remember a place he often goes to whenever he feels upset. I’ll go over and take a look first. I’ll have to trouble you to deal with things over here.”
“It’s no trouble,” the doctor said quickly. “It’s the least we can do.”
Shen Chun left in a hurry. When she walked out of the hospital, she bumped into a woman. The woman fell to the ground, but her eyes were fixed on Shen Chun.
“Head Nurse.” Someone had already come over to help the woman up, but the temperature on her body was so cold that she shivered. “Are you alright? Why are you so cold?”
The head nurse didn’t answer. She continued to stare at Shen Chun infatuatedly and her pupils dilated as she said in entrancement, “You smell so good.”
