Chapter 726: Evil Spirit, Swaying the Heart (1)
As they drove away from the school, their hearts sank a little. Feng Yuanlin said to Zhenbai’s wife that he would come back to the school tomorrow and try to make Princ.i.p.al w.a.n.g give the school time off.
It was just that they didn’t know when the evil spirits would attack. Princ.i.p.al w.a.n.g wouldn’t even give the school a week off, let alone longer. Of course, Feng Yuanlin could tell at a glance what kind of person the princ.i.p.al was. He said he was worried that the students’ grades would be affected, but he was also afraid that the school’s enrollment numbers would affect his promotion.
In addition, while someone had died in No. 5 Junior High, the news was kept under wraps. Even if some of it was leaked and there were some outside reports on it, it was clear that Princ.i.p.al w.a.n.g wanted to cover it up to avoid it having a wider impact on the school. It probably wouldn’t be easy to make this Princ.i.p.al w.a.n.g give the students a week off.
Feng Yuanlin really wouldn’t be at ease until this matter was resolved.
Since Feng Yuanlin was free, he simply followed Captain Chen and sent Chi Shuyan back to the apartment. Chi Shuyan went to the apartment to get a stack of high-grade intermediate Exorcism Talismans for them. There were more than 30 of them in this box, along with many high-grade elementary Guiding Lightning Talismans.
Chi Shuyan made up her mind to try intermediate Guiding Lightning Talismans when she had the time.
Feng Yuanlin was relieved to see these talismans.
After parting ways with Feng Yuanlin and Captain Chen, Chi Shuyan took a taxi to the Meng residence.
It was 2:30 pm, and Chen Meilin felt very uneasy being home alone. After thinking about it, she couldn’t help but go to her daughter’s room. Seeing that her daughter was unconscious and had no injuries on her stomach and body, Chen Meilin heaved a sigh of relief after confirming that the talisman from the Master was around her neck.
Chen Meilin was about to go out, when the door was suddenly pushed open. When she saw Father Meng come in, her face changed drastically and she almost screamed in fright. Even though Chen Meilin very much suspected that Father Meng was possessed by that evil spirit, she didn’t dare alert him at that moment. She suppressed the fear in her heart and deliberately asked, “Old Meng, why did you suddenly come back?”
“I came back to see how my daughter is doing,” Father Meng said as he looked affectionaly at Meng Shuyi on the bed and strode over.
This scared Chen Meilin witless. She already suspected that Old Meng was possessed, and was afraid that this “evil spirit” in front of her wouldn’t let her daughter off. Chen Meilin almost stopped him, but she was afraid of infuriating this evil spirit, and was also afraid that it would guess that she already knew the truth. She thought of how that Master would hurry over today.
Chen Meilin gritted her teeth and suppressed the fear in her heart. Seeing this “evil spirit” in front of her simply covering her daughter with a blanket, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Wait, a blanket?
Chen Meilin was sure that her daughter was wearing the talisman around her neck. Usually, this “evil spirit” wouldn’t even dare touch her daughter.
At that moment, Father Meng prodded at the talisman around Meng Shuyi’s neck with his hand and shook his head as he asked Chen Meilin, “Meilin, did you really buy these talismans from that Master Shuyan?” Without waiting for her to speak, Father Meng nodded and said, “It’s good to have these talismans. We can relax a little!”
Chen Meilin suspected that Father Meng had been possessed not only because she had seen him staring at her in the middle of the night, but also because she felt that Father Meng was always subtly trying to convince her not to carry talismans on her. There were a few times when she touched him while the talismans were on her, and he would uncharacteristically avoid her in a fl.u.s.ter, so she suspected that he was possessed.
But now, not only did he cover her daughter with a blanket, he also touched the talisman which Master Shuyan had given to her. Chen Meilin couldn’t help but feel a little lost.
Could it be that she had misunderstood, and Old Meng wasn’t possessed?
