Sweet Wife in My Arms

Chapter 661: A Female Ghost Instead of A Human

“Comrade police, brother police, I really did not commit any crime,” Huang Mao kept begging for mercy, and appeared to be good-for-nothing as his tears and snot kept streaming down his face.

“Keep your mouth shut,” Lei Qingyi interrupted Huang Mao. “So annoying.”

Huang Mao covered his mouth immediately and dared not simply talk anymore.

“I’ll ask you one question. You are only allowed to speak the truth, do you understand?”

Huang Mao nodded at once. He got the message already. He will speak frankly, he will definitely speak frankly.

“Do not give me any fake information, otherwise I’m going to break your neck,” Lei Qingyi threathened him fiercely.

Huang Mao nodded again, he would not dare lie even a word now.

Lei Qingyi lifted Huang Mao and tossed him onto a chair beside him. He was irritated as he needed to squat.

“Tell me, last night did you see a pretty looking woman with long hair, walking alone barefoot?”

Huang Mao quickly shook his head.

“Talk.” Lei Qingyi did not want to see facial expressions. He wanted to listen instead of having to look.

Huang Mao quickly moved his hand away and asked carefully, “Police comrade, actually do you want me to talk or not, I thought you asked me to shut up just now?”

Lei Qingyi squeezed his eyes shut and breathed in deeply, afraid that he would lose his temper and beat this man to death right then and there. He had seen stupid people before, but had not seen one with such stupidity in so long. He suddenly realized that there was no one on earth who could be the dumbest; people were only dumber and dumber.

Huang Mao possibly realized that Lei Qingyi’s current mood was not that good, so he dared not speak more and quickly shook both of his hands, “Brother police, we really did not commit any crime this time. Although we had done so in the past, but last night we really didn’t do anything. The rain was too heavy, only ghosts would go out on the street.”

“How about before the rain?” Lei Qingyi grinded his teeth forcefully.

“Before the rain.” Huang Mao shook his head again.

“Comrade police, I did not do any bad things before the rain as well. We were just wandering on the streets and we did not see anyone walking alone too.”

“Really?” Lei Qingyi still doubted Huang Mao’s words.

“It’s true.” Huang Mao moved his fingers above his head and raised four of them, “Comrade police, we really did not come across any woman who was alone, especially someone with long hair, barefoot and pretty looking. If I lied about any of that, I would never be able to get out of here forever.”

Lei Qingyi was a bit disappointed, but he felt fortunate at the same time.

Although he was disappointed for not getting any information about Yan Huan, he was fine as long as Yan Huan did not experience such a matter or was harmed in such a way.

As Lei Qingyi was about to leave, he heard Huang Mao mumbling to himself.

“Comrade police, we, we did not meet any long-haired woman, but we saw a female ghost.”

Lei Qingyi retreated his leg which was almost out the door. He then turned around and squinted his eyes, “Repeat what you said, a female ghost?”

“Yes, a female ghost.” When Huang Mao mentioned the female ghost, he was still scared and almost in tears.

“We saw a female ghost last night, a real one.”

“What did she look like?” Lei Qingyi took one step forward, lifted Huang Mao and made him stand on the chair to avoid the pain in his neck for looking downward like looking at a child.

As Huang Mao stood on the chair, he was almost as tall as Lu Yi so he got braver. But of course, he was also eager to tell someone about the ghost.

“Police comrade, let me tell you, we really saw a ghost, a female ghost. Her face was very pale and her hair was this long,” he even moved his hand to show the length. “She wasn’t wearing any shoes. She was bare-footed, but her legs were not walking. She was floating instead, and she probably died in the hospital, so she was still wearing the hospital gown. We followed her, but guess where we were led to? We were led to the cemetery, the one nearby the Sea River. She actually went there, you wouldn’t know but I was so scared that I pissed my pants…”

He was about to add a few more sentences to the story, but suddenly there was a gust of wind blowing across his face. He touched his face feeling confused, why is there suddenly wind blowing in here?

He did not overthink and took a few steps forward, then there was a loud thump. He fell from the chair and once again his face landed on the ground first.

He lifted his face and his nose was bleeding again.

“Mummy, I want my mummy, I need to find my mummy…”

By then, Lei Qingyi was already in his car, with both of his hands gripping the steering wheel tightly.

He already knew, he knew where Yan Huan went. It was Lu Yi’s grave, it must be Lu Yi’s grave.

It was still raining, but he drove extremely fast. Because in his heart, he was getting more and more worried. He wanted to drive even faster, only if he could drive faster than that.

His car went straight into Sea City’s cemetery grounds. He went out of his car and without an umbrella, strode toward Lu Yi’s grave. A few seconds later, he started running as he felt that walking was too slow.

His feet landed heavily on the puddles of rainwater and they splashed. In the air, the splashes separated into water droplets again with a swish.

Listening to this sound, it was unexpectedly good.

What sound was this?

What exactly was this sound, was it the sound of splashing water?

No, it was the sound of a broken heart.

It was also the most sorrowful sound in the world.

When Lei Qingyi reached his destination, with his first glance, he saw the woman who was already wet by the rain, but was still hugging Lu Yi’s grave. How long had she been here, was she here for the entire night?

He walked over, squatted down and carefully laid his hand onto the forehead of the woman who was as wet as a fish.

It was very hot, she was having a fever.

He held her up immediately, but Yan Huan’s hands were still clinging tight to the gravestone, as if she would never let go of it even if she was dead. Lei Qingyi tried to loosen up a little, took off his jacket and covered Yan Huan with it. He then used more strength to pull her hands away from the tombstone, only to see that her fingernails were broken and there was a scar on her forehead, though the blood was already washed away by the rain. Was she really trying to get herself killed?

Only then he managed to hold her up, but before he left, he turned his head around.

“Lu Yi, if you are still seeing this, please let her live. I know you will, you gave her hope to live, so I know you would not bear to see her die too.”

“You know what, this time, I do believe. I believe that somehow you are still here with us, protecting her. If those people had not mistakenly took Yan Huan as a ghost, I can’t imagine what could have happened to her.”

This time she is fine, luckily.

“Don’t you worry, I’ll take good care of her.”
