Ghost World Office

In the end, Tao Ye couldn't bear the weird atmosphere, stood up from the sofa, and said to Lu Yi:

"Go away, go back."

The two came out of the villa, passed through the gate of the world, and returned to the human world, without talking much along the way.

After coming out of the gate of the world, Tao Ye suddenly remembered that since the punishment was over, he could go to the Human World Office of City C to take Tao Yi's soul back.

Sitting at the table on the first floor of the noodle shop, Tao Ye turned on his phone and checked the ticket to City C.

Lao Xu is not busy at the moment, so he sat down on the seat next to Tao Ye, and asked with his head probed:

"Little Tao, how about I go with you?"

Tao Ye still remembered that someone had taken revenge on him for his 1 yuan reward, so he glanced sideways at Lao Xu, and dodged to the side angrily, with a strange air:

"Farewell, farewell, I'm afraid that someone will send my sister's soul to the ghost world for money."

Old Xu pursed his lips, and went to the back kitchen to check the ingredients in desperation.

Lu Yi came down from upstairs, holding a foldable silver cage in his hand, and said to Tao Ye:

"Let's go."

"What are you going for?" Tao Ye looked up from the phone, his eyes met Lu Yi, and he saw the cage in Lu Yi's hand.

This kind of cage is specially made, can be folded, is light in weight, and is generally used for the transportation of souls.

Lu Yi walked up to Tao Ye, and looked down at the ticket purchase interface on Tao Ye's phone: "I'll go to City C with you."

I don't know how Lao Xu's ears are so long, but he can hear what Lu Yi said in the back kitchen.He stuck out half his head from the dining window in a sour manner:

"When can I have this treatment?"

Tao Ye pissed off Old Xu angrily:

"It will be there when you spend 1 yuan."

Like a gopher's head in a gopher's hole, Lao Xu's head shrank back.

Lu Yi, standing aside, watched the two quarreling with great interest. Seeing that Lao Xu was defeated, he said to Tao Ye:

"Let's go."

Tao Ye wanted to refuse at first, because he didn't want to owe Lu Yi any favors.

But when he saw the big words [Second-class seats sold out today] on the ticket purchase interface, he still chose to be a favored salted fish and go with Lu Yi.

Just when the two were about to leave, Tao Ye's phone rang, and it was Cheng Qiangjun calling.

Picking up the phone, before he could speak, Cheng Qiangjun shouted excitedly on the other end of the phone:

"Brother, I got tickets for the e-sports competition! There are three tickets in total, do you want to go?"

"What game tickets?" Tao Ye didn't pay much attention to e-sports events and was at a loss.

Cheng Qiangjun quickly explained: "It's the ticket for this year's global finals. I got it after looking for several scalpers, and I specially used it to honor you."

Zhang Minghe and Cheng Qiangjun were together, booing on the other end of the phone:

"The annual e-sports event, this is a gift from the two of us to our adoptive father!"

Tao Ye is not very interested in e-sports, but it is not good to pour cold water on the two of them directly. After all, these two are his classmates who have a good relationship in school, so he asked:

"When? Where is the game?"

Cheng Qiangjun said, "Tomorrow night, at the e-sports sports center in City C."

Tao Ye was stunned. He felt that Cheng Qiangjun and Zhang Minghe had installed surveillance cameras on him.

Why are there two of them everywhere... Tao Ye has a headache.

Hearing that Tao Ye didn't speak, Cheng Qiangjun on the other end of the phone asked again: "Brother? Are you going? It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

The quality of Tao Ye's mobile phone is not good, like an old man's phone, even the volume of the earpiece is very loud.Lu Yi at the side heard this conversation and said to Tao Ye:

"Let them come together, just go to City C together."

Since Lu Yi had already said that, Tao Ye couldn't refuse. He was silent for two seconds, and said to the other end of the phone:

"You two come to the noodle shop at No. 10 Yanshi Lane within 44 minutes. My friend drove to City C, and I happened to pick you up."

"Friend? Is that the high-end friend who drove Cullinan?" Cheng Qiangjun asked excitedly.

Tao Ye rolled his eyes at the receiver of the mobile phone, hung up the phone with a snap, and turned to Lu Yi and said:

"I'll transfer the gas money and toll to you then."

Lu Yi smiled and did not refuse.

Cheng Qiangjun and Zhang Minghe arrived at the noodle shop soon, and the four of them set off for City C.

City C is not far from City S, fifty or sixty kilometers away.

Along the way, Zhang Minghe was flattering Lu Yi and Tao Ye wildly. At first, Lu Yi responded politely, chatting with Zhang Minghe, but in the end he couldn't stand Zhang Minghe's flattering attack, and simply turned on the music, pretending that he couldn't hear look.

After driving on the highway for more than an hour, the car drove into the urban area of ​​City C.

Lu Yi glanced at the navigation and asked Tao Ye, "Shall we go now?"

Tao Ye thought about it for a while, sooner rather than later, so he said:

"Now then."

The Human World Office in City C is a KTV, which thoroughly implements the policy of hiding in the city.

Therefore, Lu Yi did not shy away from Cheng Qiangjun and Zhang Minghe, and brought the three of them to the front of the KTV.

Lu Yi asked the front desk to open a private room for Tao Ye and others, let them play in it for a while, and then went to have an official social interaction with the director of the Human World Office in C City.

Sitting in the private room, Tao Ye rubbed the center of his brows worriedly while listening to Zhang Minghe's singing.

Am I not your adoptive father?Why speak up?Tao Ye didn't understand.

City C's Human World Office was very generous, offering a lot of fruit plates and drinks for the three of them to consume.Tao Ye is not very good at singing, so he can only eat the fruit plate and drinks on the side of the sofa.

Unsurprisingly, Tao Ye felt his bladder fill up bit by bit.

"I'm going to go to the toilet." Tao Ye got up from the sofa, greeted the two people who were happily ordering songs at the karaoke booth, and then went straight to the bathroom.

After solving the physical problem, Tao Ye returned to the box, only to find that there was only Zhang Minghe in the box, and Cheng Qiangjun had disappeared.

"Where's Cheng Qiangjun?" Tao Ye asked Zhang Minghe.

Zhang Minghe put down the microphone and looked around, only to find that Cheng Qiangjun was not there. He stroked his yellow hair with his hand and said:

"Hey, it was still there just now."

Tao Ye didn't care, he nestled back on the sofa, lazily turned on his phone, and sent Lu Yi a message:

[Are you done? 】

Lu Yi quickly sent a message:

[Immediately, I'll take Tao Yi's soul in a while. 】

Tao Ye always felt uneasy in his heart, but he couldn't tell why.He locked the phone screen, closed his eyes and meditated, trying to survive in the cracks of Zhang Minghe's deadly singing.

About a minute or two later, Cheng Qiangjun came back with two boxes of beer and said loudly to Tao Ye:

"Brother, what time?"

Tao Ye was not in the mood to drink, so he slammed his face like a cat, and categorically refused:

"If you don't drink, if you don't drink, I won't drink. Mom didn't come back."

While several people were talking, Lu Yi came in carrying a silver cage.

The cage has been propped open and is about the size of two large suitcases.Tao Ye could clearly see a white-haired little girl curled up on her side in the cage.

Cheng Qiangjun and Zhang Minghe couldn't see Tao Yi, and cast a questioning look at Lu Yi in bewilderment.

Lu Yi smiled at the puzzled two, and whispered to Tao Ye:

"It's all done, let's go."

Tao Ye got up from the sofa, walked to the edge of the cage, and looked down at Tao Yi's soul——

It should be that Lu Yi used the power of law to put her into a deep sleep. The white-haired girl curled up in the silver cage, her snow-white face was quiet and serene.

Tao Ye pursed his lips, turned around and said to Cheng Qiangjun and the others:

"Let's go, it's over."

After speaking, Tao Ye took the cage from Lu Yi, and carried Tao Yi's soul out of the box.

Zhang Minghe looked as if he hadn't sung enough, put the microphone in his hand on the table, and followed behind Tao Ye with a lot of enthusiasm.

After leaving the Human World Office in City C, Lu Yi planned to send the three of them to the hotel, and then drive back to City S by himself to send Tao Yi's soul back to her body.Tao Ye wanted to go back to City S with Lu Yi, but was rejected by Lu Yi:

"You promised me."

Tao Ye suddenly remembered that he had promised Lu Yi that he would never see Tao Yi again, so he could only resist the worries and anxiety in his heart and let Lu Yi take Tao Yi's soul back.

When they arrived at the hotel, Cheng Qiangjun and Zhang Minghe went back to the room to rest, while Tao Ye sent Lu Yi and Tao Yi to the parking lot.

In the hotel's underground parking lot, Lu Yi placed the cage containing Tao Yi's soul on the rear seat, and fixed the cage with a safety belt thoughtfully.

Tao Ye leaned against the side of the car door, watched Lu Yi's series of movements, and thanked Lu Yi with difficulty:

"Thank you."

Lu Yi was bending over to check whether the cage was fixed, when he heard Tao Ye's voice, he looked back at Tao Ye and smiled.

Looking at Lu Yi's slightly raised lips, Tao Ye shook his head.

I don't know when, he began to thank Lu Yi from the bottom of his heart for every contribution he made.

Even subconsciously, Tao Ye began to be willing to trust Lu Yi and accept Lu Yi's help.

Tao Ye suddenly remembered the first day he met Lu Yi, when Lu Yi invited him to barbecue, he ordered a hundred skewers without gratitude.

At that time, he seemed to be different from now.

"It's all done, you can go back." Lu Yi got out of the car, and the collar of his suit was a little crooked, which was caused when he leaned halfway into the back seat of the car just now.

Tao Ye's eyes fell on Lu Yi's collar involuntarily. He didn't have obsessive-compulsive disorder, but the crooked collar appeared on Lu Yi's body, which was more or less inconsistent.

"The collar is crooked." Tao Ye pointed Lu Yi's collar through the air with his fingers, reminding him.

The tenderness on Lu Yi's face suddenly stagnated, and he looked down at his collar, with an imperceptible gleam of smile on his face, and whispered to Tao Ye:

"Thank you."

Tao Ye raised his hand, scraped his forehead with his index knuckles, turned away, and stopped looking at Lu Yi.He bent down and leaned into the rear space of the car, reached into the cage, and touched Tao Yi's small face.

Tao Ye's fingers parted Tao Yi's snow-white forehead hair, revealing her smooth forehead.

The moment he saw Tao Yi's forehead, Tao Yi's heart beat suddenly, something was wrong, something was wrong with Tao Yi's soul!

"What's wrong?" Sensing Tao Ye's strangeness, Lu Yi asked with concern outside the car.

Tao Ye carefully checked Tao Yi's forehead again——

Tao Yi was naughty when he was a child. He once knocked over a hot water bottle and burned his forehead.So Tao Yi keeps bangs, in order to cover the scar on his forehead.

Although Tao Ye never thought the scar on Tao Yi's forehead was ugly, the little girl loves beauty and always refuses to show her forehead.

But now, the forehead of Tao Yi's soul is smooth, without any trace of scar.

For all souls, before entering the ghost world, the appearance of the soul and the appearance of the body are exactly the same.

Once there is a difference between the appearance of the soul and the body, it indicates that the soul has either been deformed or something is missing.

"There is something wrong with this soul." Tao Ye turned his head to look at Lu Yi, frowned and said in a deep voice.
