Has the Female Lead Turned Villainous Today? [Quick Transmigration] 83

Chapter 083: World Four [5]

Hearing Ling Yilin’s “little snack” address, Meng Jiuge reacted in a moment and understood the other party’s meaning.

In front of a ghost, she was just like Ling Yilin’s address, a delicious little snack, the kind that could be eaten to become stronger without pain.

However, Meng Jiuge was not too scared in her heart. She made this posture mostly to please this person who was deliberately teasing her.

Her master had said that some great demons had strange tempers. Anyway, just remember not to play tricks in front of the other party and just go along with their wishes. Her little life was more important than her face.

Ling Yilin wanted to scare her, so she had to show a scared posture to satisfy her.

“Are we companions? Aren’t you my accompanying staff?” Ling Yilin chuckled softly, it was unknown if she had seen through Meng Jiuge’s disguise.

“I remember that the responsibility of a staff member is to assist me in completing the mission and to help me answer some questions, right?” Ling Yilin asked, her eyes slightly narrowed as she looked at the almost unlit corridor.

It was almost eleven-thirty now. Besides the public laundry room and the toilet, the other lights in the corridor had been turned off in response to the call to save electricity. After all, school hadn’t started yet. There was no need to turn on all the lights for a few students who were staying in the school.

“Does senior have any questions to ask me?” Meng Jiuge said, her body very honestly continuing to stick to Ling Yilin without letting go.

What’s that saying? It’s better to be safe than sorry. What if there was not just that ‘pen fairy’ in this dormitory building, but also other great ghosts or great demons? Her little life would really be over.

Meng Jiuge had not forgotten the scene she had seen before. Besides that ‘pen fairy’, there was also a force of unknown origin, which was estimated to be below Ling Yilin, but above the ‘pen fairy’.

“What do you think we should do next?” Ling Yilin asked.

“Huh?” Meng Jiuge was stunned for a moment. Wasn’t this the question she was going to ask Ling Yilin at the beginning? How did she throw the topic back to her?

“Since senior has let that ‘pen fairy’ go, you must have a way to deal with her. You can just do as you think, senior,” Meng Jiuge said skillfully.

Ling Yilin laughed again, but this time with a hint of contempt and casualness. “Okay, then I’ll do as I think.”

As her voice fell, Ling Yilin casually grabbed, and the female ghost who had been hiding at the end of the corridor was thus caught in Ling Yilin’s hand, and then was encircled in a small circle of less than half a meter.

The female ghost looked to be in her twenties. Besides her pale face and semi-transparent body, she looked quite like a student, and her eyes still had a clear look that had not been beaten by society.

Before the female ghost could react, an unknown creature with yellow-brown glowing eyes pounced at Ling Yilin, looking as if it wanted to save the female ghost.

If the person who had restrained the female ghost was Meng Jiuge, she would most likely not be able to block this little thing’s pounce. But the one who had controlled the female ghost was Ling Yilin. With a single glance, she made the pouncing thing lose its ability to move and could only lie on the beige tiles.

Whimper whimper—

The creature lying on the ground let out a whimper. With the light from the top of the stairs, Meng Jiuge, who had been startled, saw the little thing’s appearance clearly.

A small red fox, looking about the same size as the stray cats on campus, was clearly a little cub that had not yet grown up.

“Senior, is this the one who took the pen fairy away just now?” Meng Jiuge blinked her eyes, her head turning quickly.

“What do you think?” Ling Yilin casually threw the question back, her gaze falling on the female ghost who was being held by her, and she asked.

“You have no killing intent on you. Why didn’t you go and be reincarnated, but became a local spirit?”

A hint of confusion flashed in the female ghost’s eyes, and then enlightenment. “So I’m a local spirit. No wonder I can’t go far every time. I can’t even go out and take a look!”

“Are you the ‘pen fairy’ that 403 invited?” Meng Jiuge asked. The enemy had been subdued, so she didn’t seem to have anything to be afraid of.

As if! The biggest danger was right beside her! While Meng Jiuge was complaining in her heart, she continued to stick to Ling Yilin to ensure her own sense of security.

“Oh, you mean 403? I felt a little bit of the summoning power and went over to join the fun,” the female ghost honestly told her experience.

The pen fairy ceremony was actually another form of a spirit-summoning array. The ghosts who were near the ceremony and were not very powerful were easily attracted away without realizing it, and were forced to become ‘pen fairies’ to answer those people’s questions.

“I was originally planning to tell them the truth, but at that time, the little magician came over to declare her sovereignty, which caused the ceremony to be forcibly interrupted. I was left in the dormitory because of some rules.”

The female ghost said truthfully, “I was a little bored in the dormitory alone, so I messed with the things they had on display. I thought I had restored them, but my memory seems to be not very good, so I scared them.”

“I didn’t mean to. The control of the ceremony on me weakened after three days. I haven’t been back since I left. But they held another ceremony just now, which made me have to go over,” the female ghost added.

“Little magician? Are there other cultivators involved?” Meng Jiuge grasped the key point.

An awkward, speechless expression appeared on the female ghost’s face, and her gaze looked at the little fox who was whimpering on the ground. “Isn’t there a Daji among the foxes? Daji is a character I like to use very much in a certain game, so I used the corresponding professional title to call it.”

Meng Jiuge: …

Very logical. It seemed that she had grasped the wrong point.

“May I ask for your name?” Meng Jiuge quickly adjusted her state.

“Name?” The expression on the female ghost’s face turned into confusion again. “I’m probably surnamed Sun, but what’s my name? I don’t remember. I can’t remember.”

Meng Jiuge’s eyelid twitched. She thought of the information she had found on the forum and the forum before.

“Do you still remember how you died?” Meng Jiuge continued to ask.

The female ghost showed a look of trying hard to think, but her thinking failed. She could only shake her head. “I don’t know. I don’t remember. But I seem to be a student of this school, and I died here.”

Meng Jiuge nodded slowly. “Then do you still remember your major? Are you…”

“Wuwu— wuwu—” The little fox lying on the ground began to struggle, constantly making noises, as if it wanted to use this to attract Meng Jiuge’s attention.

Meng Jiuge did indeed notice the little fox’s strangeness, but she didn’t pay too much attention to the little fox and continued to ask. “I’ve seen a piece of news. At A University five years ago, a student surnamed Sun from the accounting department committed suicide by taking an overdose of sleeping pills because of a broken heart.”

“Accounting major? Committed suicide because of a broken heart?” The female ghost muttered to herself. As she kept repeating the keywords, the yin qi on her body slowly solidified again, and the expression on her face also gradually became ferocious.

The suppressed little fox’s whimpering became even louder, and tears even appeared in its eyes, making it cry with anxiety.

“After a person dies, they usually have to enter the underworld to be reincarnated. Those who still remain in the human world are usually people with an obsession. If a ghost with an obsession sees blood and kills, they might become a fierce ghost.”

Ling Yilin spoke up. “You’re pointing out her obsession at this time. Are you trying to force her to kill and then have her become a fierce ghost?”

Meng Jiuge was stunned for a moment and shook her head frantically. “I didn’t. I just wanted to confirm her identity. I didn’t think of this. I’m sorry.”

“There are also taboos in the pen fairy game. You can’t ask the pen fairy how she died. You should have realized this problem earlier,” Ling Yilin said, reaching out to pat Meng Jiuge’s head.

“Senior is right to teach me a lesson. I’ve noted it down. I won’t make the same mistake next time,” Meng Jiuge knelt down in a second and looked at the female ghost’s location with a worried look. “Senior, what should I do now?”

“It’s very simple. As long as you are strong enough,” Ling Yilin said. As her voice fell, the pressure of a strong person was instantly released.

Meng Jiuge instantly felt a sense of being unable to breathe, but fortunately, her reaction was fast enough. She boldly hugged Ling Yilin’s body, so she did not go weak at the knees and kneel down.

The little fox, which was already lying on the ground, could not even whimper. It could only be forced to become a small red biscuit and completely lay flat on the tiles.

Asking about the cause of a ghost’s death did indeed have a probability of making the other party enter a berserk state, but when she sensed that her life was threatened, the female ghost’s red eyes instantly returned to their normal color, and the condensed yin qi also began to dissipate.

It was obvious that a berserk ghost also had reason. She knew what to do to keep her little life.

“As long as you are strong enough, you can ask any question you want. It doesn’t matter if it’s taboo or not,” Ling Yilin said, slowly withdrawing her pressure.

Ling Yilin said, “Little snack, quick, let go of me and continue to ask the questions you want to ask.”

Meng·Little Snack·Jiuge did not dare to refute and could only let go with a sheepish look. “Thank you for your guidance, senior. I’ve noted it down.”

After maintaining a distance of about twenty centimeters from Ling Yilin, Meng Jiuge cleared her throat and continued to ask.

Meng Jiuge had done her homework. Seeing that the female ghost was very sober, she took out her phone and read out the hot post from that year.

As the female ghost listened, her eyes began to turn red again, but with Ling Yilin there, she still maintained her reason.

“Nonsense! These unscrupulous media are all talking nonsense! I didn’t commit suicide, I was killed! I remember it all! I was murdered by Li Feng!” the female ghost said with great anger.

The female ghost’s original name was Sun Xue. She was just an ordinary student who had been admitted to A University. Her ordinariness was reflected in her ordinary family, ordinary appearance, and ordinary emotional and intellectual quotients.

However, Sun Xue was a very competitive person. She planned to get a certified public accountant’s certificate during her time in school and then graduate with a double certificate.

Due to her competitive nature, Sun Xue not only won the national scholarship in the end, but also got a recommendation for postgraduate study at her own school.

“Aren’t those news media all saying that I liked the student union president at that time? They don’t use their heads to think. The president at that time was a mixed-blood beauty. There were many people in the school who liked her for her looks. I just casually said it,” Sun Xue’s face was full of resentment and anger.

“Why did Li Feng… make a move on you?” Meng Jiuge asked, holding a notebook in her hand and writing down the information that Sun Xue had revealed.

“Li Feng is my classmate. To outsiders, he can be considered my suitor. But I know in my heart that he was just jealous that I had gotten a scholarship and a recommendation for postgraduate study,” a clear look of disdain appeared in Sun Xue’s eyes.

“He failed in his pursuit of me, and his academic performance was not as good as mine, so he could only spread rumors that I was in love with him but couldn’t get him, saying that I worked so hard to be worthy of him, and describing me as a crazy person.”

“I’m really speechless. How could I possibly work hard for a man? I was working hard for my starting annual salary after graduation! I was so desperate for money! And that dog man actually smeared me like that!”

Sun Xue said indignantly, wanting to vent her anger with words. But after her peripheral vision caught the impatient expression on Ling Yilin’s face, her long speech turned into a concise long story short.

“At a class cadre gathering, I was forced to drink a few glasses of wine by him, and I looked like I was drunk. But I suspect that he had put something in my glass, which was why I got drunk so quickly.”

“He crushed half a bottle of sleeping pills and directly poured them into my stomach. After that, I lost consciousness. By the time I woke up again, only the little magician was by my side,” Sun Xue said with an honest face.

The little magician was a little animal that Sun Xue had fed when she was in school. After a while, the two of them became familiar.

After Sun Xue had been drugged, she was thrown by Li Feng near a small grove in the school, and was just happened to be discovered by the little magician.

But at that time, the little magician had just opened its spiritual wisdom and didn’t know how to use its abilities very well. In a muddle, it bound itself to Sun Xue, causing her soul to remain in the human world and become a local spirit.

“If that’s the case, why was your state so strange when 403 asked about the whereabouts of the kittens?” Meng Jiuge asked with a questioning attitude.

People are good and bad. The same principle applies to ghosts that are transformed from people.

A sheepish expression appeared on Sun Xue’s face. “Um, I can’t leave the school, and there are very few people staying in the school during the summer vacation. I can’t go to classes to pass the time, so I can only feed the cats. The little magician doesn’t like me doing this, so it drove the few cats to a place outside the school that I can’t go to.”

“…” Meng Jiuge fell into silence again. Had she been overthinking? She had thought that those few cats had been taken away by a bad person and had been used as a sacrifice to complete some kind of ritual.

“Senior, the matter of the pen fairy seems to have been cleared up. It was just a misunderstanding and a coincidence,” Meng Jiuge closed her notebook and looked at Ling Yilin. “What do you think we should do next, senior?”

“Since you’ve already figured out the truth, then this one ghost and one demon are useless. The ghost will be sent to the underworld. As for the little fox, I’ll just throw it to her own kind. They don’t mind raising a cub,” Ling Yilin said.

“Wuwu— wuwu—” The little fox cried out again. Paired with her watery eyes, she looked quite pitiful.

At least for Meng Jiuge, this prospective university student, she couldn’t quite stand the little fox’s coquetry.

“Senior, before a ghost is sent into reincarnation, shouldn’t their obsession be dispelled? Sun Xue was killed by Li Feng, which can be considered an unjust death. It is reasonable and right that we should not let a murderer go unpunished,” Meng Jiuge said.

Ling Yilin glanced at Meng Jiuge lightly. “Is that so? Do you think I should listen to you?”

“Senior, I am the accompanying assistant. This is just a solution I am providing to you as a member of the Administration for your reference,” Meng Jiuge did not dare to accept this sentence.

She was no match for Ling Yilin in any aspect. She did not have the guts to have the other party listen to her.

“What’s in it for me?” Ling Yilin asked, inexplicably wanting to make things difficult for Meng Jiuge and see her show a troubled look.

“Senior, this is your first mission. If the completion rate is high, the Administration’s attention on you will also be a little less, and they might even open up more missions for you to take on.”

“In terms of efficiency, the contribution points you can get from solving an A-level mission are much higher than a C-level one. By doing this, you might be able to accumulate more contribution points in a shorter period of time and successfully exchange for the things you want, senior.”

Meng Jiuge’s mind was still very clear. She knew to find reasons from Ling Yilin’s needs to persuade her, instead of talking about some grand principles with her.

Ling Yilin did not speak, but looked at Meng Jiuge with great interest. Only after seeing her a little stressed did she slowly withdraw her gaze.

“This should be very troublesome, right? Five years is enough for all the evidence to disappear. You’re not going to take Sun Xue’s ghost back and have her report the case herself, are you?” Ling Yilin asked.

Meng Jiuge first nodded and then shook her head. “An ordinary police officer will not believe in these ghosts and gods, but the people in our Administration all believe, and we are also a proper unit. We can totally submit the materials to the procuratorate and have the procuratorate sue Li Feng and restore the truth of the matter.”

Meng Jiuge said and looked at Sun Xue, who was still locked in a small circle. “You also don’t want the success and efforts you have achieved to be evaluated by those people as working hard for love, right?”

“Of course! I was so desperate for myself!” the female ghost’s answer was without a moment’s hesitation.

“Wuwu~” The little fox lying on the ground also chimed in.

After one person, one ghost, and one demon had reached a consensus, they all looked at Ling Yilin in unison, waiting for her to nod in agreement.

Ling Yilin’s eyelid twitched. She suddenly had a feeling that she was the big villain.

No, she wasn’t a good person in the first place. Wasn’t it very normal to do some bad things?

“Senior, the words I said, are they a little bit reasonable?” Meng Jiuge reached out and gestured, showing a look of admiration.

Meng Jiuge blinked her eyes and began to put a high hat on Ling Yilin. “I know that you were deliberately testing me just now, senior. I’ve noted down your teaching. I will think twice before I act in the future and will definitely not embarrass you!

“Senior, can you give me a chance to perform? I will definitely perform well this time and will not embarrass you,” Meng Jiuge said and extended a hand, gently pulling at the corner of Ling Yilin’s clothes.

“Wuwu~~” The little fox, who couldn’t speak, continued to cry out.

Ling Yilin: …

She always felt that she had been inexplicably manipulated. Although she was not a good person, she was not a person with a particularly, particularly bad personality. Especially after meeting Meng Jiuge’s admiring and pleading gaze, some words just couldn’t be said.

“Three days. Can you handle the matter well?” Ling Yilin said, finally relenting.

“Don’t worry, senior. I will handle the matter beautifully and will not fail to live up to your life-saving grace!” Meng Jiuge said, unable to resist giving Ling Yilin a hug.

Ling Yilin hummed in acknowledgment and casually waved her hand. “I’ve lifted the restriction. You can handle the rest. I’m leaving.”

As her voice fell, Ling Yilin disappeared in a flash.

About three minutes later, Ling Yilin appeared in the luxurious room of a hotel and took out the phalanx that had been on her neck.

It was suddenly cold before, and now it was suddenly hot. Could it be that the phalanx was about to mutate?

But there was no soul or aura attached to this phalanx. It simply did not meet the basic principle of mutation.

Ling Yilin’s thoughts were a little chaotic. Her right hand was tightly holding the phalanx. She always felt that she had forgotten something very important. Veins also appeared on her forehead, and the power in her body suddenly became disobedient and began to riot.

【Master, your aura is fluctuating. If it goes on for a long time, it will attract the attention of the world consciousness. Do you want to leave this small world first and sort out the power in your body?】 Xiao Qi popped up to remind her.

“No need. It’s just a normal fluctuation,” Ling Yilin slowly let out a breath. The complicated emotions from before were thrown to the back of her mind, and her reason returned to its original position.

Letting go of her tightly clenched hand, the jade-like phalanx reappeared in Ling Yilin’s sight, making her can’t help but frown slightly.

“Xiao Qi, do you remember the origin of this phalanx?” Ling Yilin asked.

【Master, I only know that you brought this out from the last world. Your memory was erased by yourself. As a bonded weapon, my memory has also disappeared.】

“What do you think, under what circumstances would I keep a person’s phalanx?” Ling Yilin continued to ask.

Xiao Qi was silent for a moment. 【Master, according to common sense, only the phalanx of a loved one would be kept.】

【Of course, it’s also possible that this phalanx is not simple. It looks ordinary, but it is a very important object left by a certain great power, containing a very powerful force.】

【There is another possibility. This phalanx can play a very important role for you at a certain special time.】

Ling Yilin hummed in acknowledgment, placed the phalanx in front of her nose, and sniffed the scent on it.

There was no scent. If she had to say, the phalanx was only stained with her own scent.

The phalanx of a loved one. This possibility was the first to be ruled out by Ling Yilin. If it was really a loved one, Ling Yilin felt that she would definitely let the other party live well, instead of existing by her side in the form of a phalanx.

As for the second possibility, it also didn’t seem very reliable. This phalanx was just an ordinary person’s phalanx. Ling Yilin couldn’t see anything special about it.

As for the third…

Ling Yilin frowned. An idea popped out of her head.

She would absolutely not keep a useless thing by her side, and she had even added so many arrays on it to protect this phalanx.

To play a very important role for her at a certain special time…

Could it be that this phalanx was a very special existence for the guardian? When she was fighting, if she threw it out, she could make the guardian make a mistake?

With a bunch of wrong processes, Ling Yilin had, by a strange combination of circumstances, deduced half of the correct result. This phalanx could really make the guardian make a mistake.
