Chapter 219 - 220: That’s Him
The female ghost’s eyes turned red with rage, but before she could even get angry, a series of slaps rained down on her.
She truly regretted it now.
’If I’d known it would turn out like this, I should have just cried and told my sad story. Maybe she would have even helped me get revenge or something.’
And now she’d been beaten up for nothing.
Only after beating her until she went limp did Su Nian pick her up, ready to toss her out.
"No, no, no! I was wrong, I was wrong! I won’t go dark anymore, please help me. I’m a victim too!"
Su Nian looked at the female ghost and spoke with a faint smile.
"Are you going to pull that ’going dark’ crap again or not!?"
"No, no more! I was wrong, I was wrong!"
’As a ghost, I don’t even have a physical body. Who would have thought this woman could still give me such a sound thrashing?’
[See? I told you. What a complete chump.]
[She really didn’t deserve that beating!]
[Why would you randomly decide to ’go dark’ and provoke her? See, now you got your ass beat!]
"Tell me your story. What’s your grievance?"
Su Nian didn’t press the issue. The female ghost wasn’t inherently evil; it was just that she had died a violent death and then come into contact with a phone tainted by other ghost energy, which amplified her resentment.
That’s why she had become like that. But now, after a good beating from Su Nian, she was back to normal.
"My name is Bai Youyou. My mom passed away three years ago. Even though we didn’t have a good relationship, I still wanted to go back for her. But I couldn’t find a ride, and I was too anxious to wait for the bus, so I paid a high price to hire this unlicensed taxi!"
"But I never expected that animal would try to get handsy with me. I fought back too hard and injured him, so he choked me to death."
"Afterward, he threw my head into the river and chopped off my limbs. It hurt so, so much. And because my body isn’t whole, I haven’t even been able to reincarnate all these years. I just got so angry... my mindset shifted for a bit."
A stream of bloody tears flowed from Bai Youyou’s eyes.
[How pitiful...]
[Honestly, the fact she endured for so many years before going dark makes her seem pretty kind in my book.]
[I honestly feel the same way. It’s just so tragic. If it were me, I’d take it out on anyone I could get my hands on!]
Su Nian furrowed her brow, pinching her fingers together in a quick calculation.
"Let’s go. I’ll reassemble your body first, then send you on your way."
[Why do you have to reassemble the body to send her away?!]
[Yeah, I thought someone as amazing as the streamer could just send her directly to be reincarnated!]
Su Nian shook her head, taking the rare step of explaining to the live comments.
"Those who commit suicide and those with dismembered bodies have a very difficult time reincarnating. The former need to find a replacement, while the latter need to find their complete physical body."
"And many of those with dismembered bodies were harmed by villains. The souls of these victims are imprisoned where the head is. They can’t leave at all unless someone helps reassemble the corpse. Otherwise, they have no way to reincarnate."
[Looking at it that way, this girl is so pitiful!]
[And did you guys even listen? She was on her way to her mother’s funeral! She wanted to see her one last time!]
[That monster really deserves to die!]
Su Nian picked up Bai Youyou’s spirit form and drove to the riverbank.
She needed to find the head first. Fortunately, Bai Youyou knew where it was, so it didn’t take much effort.
But just then, a harsh, coarse male voice rang out.
"Damn it, these cops are on my tail! They actually tracked me down. I better move the body back, run it through a meat grinder, and dump it down the sewer!"
Before Su Nian could even react, Bai Youyou, beside her, was already frantic.
"That’s the one who hurt me! That’s him!"
