Chapter 24

In the municipal library, the reading area is full of people, and everyone is immersed in the world of books.

Occasionally, one or two people chatted in a low voice.

"Have you heard? The library is said to be haunted."

"real or fake?"

"I don't know, some people said that they saw a book suspended in the air, and there was no one there, but the book turned pages by itself..."

"Oh, it's scary~"

The administrator walked through the rows of bookshelves, sorting out the books that had been taken out and turned over two pages but had not been put back.

Walking to the bookshelf about pharmacological knowledge, the gray-haired old man couldn't help shaking his head. Several books were stuffed away, and the good pages were even folded if they didn't restore them.

"I really don't cherish books..." The old man arranged the books according to the number, flattened the pages, and put them back one by one.

While it was lying there, a certain tome of a brick book was accidentally placed too far in, and the book on the opposite side was pushed to the ground by him.Pat, clack.Needless to say, the old man also knew that the books on the opposite side must have been scattered all over the place.

"Alas..." One thing is still done, but more work has been added. The old man sighed secretly, he is old and useless.

Just as he was depressed, the book that had fallen on the ground had already been picked up.

Through the gaps in the bookshelves, the old man can see a pair of fair and beautiful hands patting the dust off the books, carefully sorting the pages and putting them back in place.

"Thank you, it was a great help." The elderly administrator thanked gratefully.

"You're welcome." The man's tone was gentle, and his voice was clear and pleasant.

After tidying up the bookshelves here, the old man planned to thank the kind person in person.When I walked to the bookcase opposite, it was empty and there was no one there.

"Strange..." He made sure he didn't hear footsteps leaving.This is a dead end, and if you want to leave, you have to go through the aisle behind him.In such a short period of time, I didn't see anyone passing by...

Are the rumors of this time true?Is it really haunted here?The old man felt a chill down his spine.

After thinking about it, it's not right, how can there be a ghost in the library every day?Take ten thousand steps back, there is really a ghost here, don't hurt people, don't take your life, read a book peacefully, the danger factor of this ghost is not high.

The old man pondered for a while, then turned around slowly, pushed the cart and left.

After the person left, Heizi confidently showed his hand, and continued to study the parts he hadn't finished before.He didn't know that he was classified as a "safe and harmless ghost", his brows were furrowed, and his icy blue eyes were full of lingering worries.



Akashi fell ill again.

In Heizi's memory, after the age of five, that person would suffer from a serious illness every year.It was just a small cold at first, but after a night's sleep, it suddenly deteriorated into a high fever of 39 degrees, and then the high fever lasted for many days, and even reached the point of dehydration several times.

Doctors came in wave after wave, and no matter how blood tests were done, they couldn't tell the reason.

Same this time.Akashi's family's private doctor came over, took hundreds of milliliters of blood, and did a round of various tests, but the result was still "Young master's indicators are normal, and the cause of the high fever cannot be found."

Akashi looked weak in his illness, with a sickly pallor in his cheeks.In a coma, he seemed extremely unsteady and was shaking all the time.He even bit his lip hard, his teeth pierced the flesh and blood oozes out.

Every night, Heizi quietly materialized while no one was around, resting his head on his lap, and wiped his sweat over and over again.

"Go away... don't use that face..." Akashi repeated the same words in a coma, his handsome face was twisted in pain, and he was overwhelmed by repeated nightmares.

Kuroko took care of Akashi all night, helping him change his clothes and towels.

The person in his arms was hot all over, his red hair drooped messily on his forehead, and his weak breath seemed to be cut off at any moment.

There must be something I can do for you.

Kuroko lowered his eyes and kissed Akashi's hot lips.



During the day, Akashi was served by servants, so Kuroko went to the library to look through materials.The private doctors of the Akashi family are all experienced and excellent doctors, and many of them have worked in national general hospitals.Heizi didn't expect to be able to cure even the illness that they were helpless with his three-legged cat's self-study knowledge.

What he cares about is the fact that Akashi is haunted by nightmares.

If he could find a way to make that person sleep peacefully without dreams, and the coma would not be so painful, he would be willing to let him go through fire and water.

"Somber-promoting medicinal materials... Ah, there are."

Heizi read each word carefully, and printed all the recipes in his mind.The medicine is three-point poisonous, and he is a layman, so Heizi didn't look at the formulas with strong medicinal properties, but only wrote down some mild and conditioning herbs.

After memorizing it three times and confirming that he had memorized it, Heizi put the book away and floated through the wall to the road.His destination is the largest and most complete medicine store in the city, where he can find all the things he needs in one go.

In my impression, the medicine shop is at the corner of Sanjie Street away from the library. I don’t know if it’s changed now... Heizi followed his memory and drifted there. His empty body easily passed through the blocking wall, and he arrived there not long after. destination.

"It hasn't changed much." Heizi couldn't help sighing, and drifted to the shelf where the medicinal materials were stored familiarly.He had worked here for a period of time before his death and was quite familiar with everything.It has been more than ten years since his death in a car accident. Many buildings have been demolished and moved, and there are very few buildings that remain unchanged.

Cen Ling, Zhixin, Nuo'an... Heizi silently recited the names of the medicinal materials, and recalled the proportions in grams required for each medicinal material.The medicinal materials here have been air-dried and look dark.Heizi skillfully took out the required amount, ground it into powder and packed it.

After everything was taken care of, Heizi stopped suddenly.

How to pay?

Heizi was confused.It's definitely not okay to just walk away without paying the bill, but if you pay...God knows if his salary card is still there? !I guess it has been cancelled...

Heizi was struggling, when a voice came from outside the Kumen, with a flustered tone.

"Earthquake warning, everyone hurry up and evacuate!"

"But Director, there are still medicinal materials drying on the roof, should we take them back?"

"What if the earthquake is more serious than the warning? Don't make fun of your life!"

"But those medicines are expensive..."

"No, but! Evacuation is the most important thing now, and we will recycle after the earthquake subsides."

The sound of footsteps went away, and Heizi slowly floated out of the pharmacy. After a little thought, he floated directly through the ceiling to the rooftop.

Some medicinal materials are still stained with dew when they are first delivered, which is not easy to preserve.The staff of the pharmacy will spread them flat on the roof to dry before putting them into storage.

Sure enough, there were a lot of medicinal herbs on the roof. Heizi held the charm in his arms, and the Yin Qi swirled and gathered around him, causing ripples in circles.In the center of the vortex, a person with blue hair and blue eyes slowly appeared, and the hem of the kimono swayed slightly in the wind.Heizi rolled up his sleeves, stacked the herbs with a faint fragrance, and put them in a box beside him.

Taking something without paying for it is really not in line with his three views.

With no means of payment, he could only do what he could to help them.

Heizi quickly put away a box and sealed the box.Just as he was about to continue working, he suddenly felt something strange.

It was as if someone was watching him, watching his every move.

That kind of feeling is very rare. Heizi was a person with low sense of presence before he was alive. After death, he turned into a wandering spirit. No one can see him except Akashi. It has been a long time since he felt this kind of feeling-the feeling of being locked in by others' eyes.

At the other end of the rooftop, I saw a person.

The man was dressed in white, with silver-white hair and dark gray eyes that were calm.The eyes of the two met in the air, Heizi nodded politely at him, but was secretly surprised.

He thought his sense of existence was low enough, but that person was even worse than him.

The silver-haired man said slowly, "You..."

His voice was quickly drowned in a chaotic cacophony.

earthquake? !

The shaking of the ground was very uncomfortable, and Heizi frowned.The medicinal materials at hand slipped to one side under the influence of the trembling ground, and Heizi hurriedly used his body to protect them.

A figure appeared beside him, it was the mysterious silver-haired man.

From the corner of his eyes, Heizi saw the man squatting down to help him protect the medicine at the other end, and said gratefully, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." The man's voice was clear and cold, just like his expression, indifferent as if it couldn't stir up any waves.

The first wave of the earthquake subsided a bit, and Heizi hastened his movements to pack the second box of medicinal materials.With the help of the silver-haired man, the four boxes on the roof were fully packed before the next wave of earthquakes began.

"It's really helpful, you should go to the refuge as soon as possible." After taking care of the precious medicinal materials, Heizi said.He is already a person who has died once, and he is not afraid of earthquakes, but the other party is different.

Ordinary people are in danger in this situation.

The person on the opposite side looked at him fixedly, "I don't need to take refuge."

Heizi widened his eyes.Before he could digest the meaning behind this sentence, a black shadow suddenly enveloped them.The silver-haired man pushed Heizi back and shielded him behind him without a trace, his expression suddenly turned cold.

In the palm of the man's hand, Yin Qi began to gather at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally condensed into the shape of a sword.

"Let's stop talking about it, let's deal with Li Gui first."

This was the first time Heizi saw Li Gui.

The opponent has a huge body, a dark face without facial features, only a huge mouth.Dark green mucus dripped from the bright red tip of the tongue, and when it turned towards Heizi and the silver-haired man, the tongue writhed like a snake, looking very happy.

There is no doubt that Heizi and the others are a delicious meal in the hearts of this ghost.

"Dai Qianxun." Suddenly, the silver-haired man said, "My name."

"My name is Hei Zi Zhe Ye." As soon as he finished speaking, Li Gui rushed over impatiently.Different from its funny chubby figure, Li Gui's movements are quite flexible.Before Heizi could react, he was caught by Dai Qianxun's armpit and jumped backwards.

"You are now the bait." Dai said succinctly, and Heizi nodded, returning to a state of nothingness and slowly floating in the air.The black ghost quickly came to his side, its snake-like tongue wrapped around Heizi's calf, and slid all the way up.

Heizi closed his eyes.Feeling something greasy slipping onto his thigh, he couldn't help feeling sick.

"Broken." Yin Qi gathered into the shape of a sword, and accurately pierced Li Gui's eyebrows. The thing let out a miserable scream, struggled and rolled in the air, and slowly dissipated into a cloud of white mist.

"...Thank you." Heizi said weakly.The experience just now was far beyond his imagination. He never thought that he, who had died once, would still have this feeling that his life was hanging by a thread.

"You're welcome. Originally, this ghost came after me." Dai Qianxun's face was still calm, he stared at the place where the ghost disappeared, his eyes flashed with some unknown emotion.

"You guys know each other?" Heizi couldn't help asking, seeing that Dai's eyes seemed a little sad.

"Well, we used to be friends, when he was still sane. We wandered around the world for a long time, maybe more than 100 years, I don't remember." Dai stroked Heizi's cheek, her palms were cold, "You look very similar to him. Like, blue hair, small stature, fair skin."

"He fell in love with a human and agreed to be together forever. I persuaded him, but he refused. After two years, that human got married and had a baby." Dai closed her eyes. "On the day the child was born, the yin energy in his body soared, and it didn't take long for him to become like this."

Heizi lowered his eyes, his slender eyelashes trembling like cicada wings.If it wasn't for Akashi, he probably also...

"It is said that ghosts who fall in love with human beings have only two fates—become a ghost, or be scattered." Dai looked at Heizi with unclear meaning in her eyes.

"Heizi Tetsuya, which one will your ending be?"
