The Exorcist

Wanli called at night.

"I didn't find you when I went back to the clinic in the afternoon, and I didn't dare to call you because of your busy case." He said, "How is today?"

"It's not like that."

"Why are you so weak, you didn't sleep well last night?"

"Well." In fact, she has been very tired these days, but because she is afraid of having nightmares again, she is a little worried about sleeping with chuang every day. Now she is considering whether to stop sleeping at all.

"Have you - went to find Ruan Zhan?" Wan Li asked tentatively, "You won't forget, my psychic friend!"

"How can you have a friend who can be psychic?! I have seen a friend who is very ill-mannered." As soon as Ruan Zhan was mentioned, a nameless fire appeared in Xiao Xia from nowhere, and immediately changed from a half-dead state to almost violent thunder. .

"Looks like you've already found him."

"twice!"

"Does that mean he doesn't promise to help you?"

"You still let me go, knowing the result? Are you embarrassing me on purpose?"

"Hey, be reasonable. I said earlier that he was afraid of trouble and would probably disagree. But I didn't expect you to be angry. He has always had a good reputation among women."

"That's because those women didn't have eyes, but I did. In fact, I asked others for help, and the help is a matter of love, not a duty, and it's not entirely out of your face. I have nothing to complain about. , people are not obliged to help me. But I am angry with his demeanor. With such a good-looking, friendly smile on his face, he actually refuses everything and is indifferent to everything. What looks like a gentle Prince Charming is actually evil Gorgeous witch! There is no affection, no love, no conscience!" Xiao Xia was furious, although she also knew that asking for help was to be humble and the result was unknown, but when she thought of Ruan Zhan's face, she became angry, and she didn't know why. .

"It's good to be angry, it's good to be angry, and you can pass on other bad emotions."

"Million miles!"

"Okay, okay, don't be angry. Tomorrow—no, I can't get away tomorrow. The day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, I'll go find him with you. This kid is too disrespectful to me, and I don't even look at him. Who is it? Lawyer Yue asked him to do a little favor, doesn't he look down on him!"

"I dont go!"

"Why don't you go. The more he is afraid of trouble, the more annoying him! Then he will be killed!" Wan Li said following Xiao Xia's words. He knew that Xiao Xia's temper was very childish, and it was better to arouse her revenge and competitiveness than to comfort her. He still wasn't sure whether Xiao Xia's recent endless nightmare was a psychological problem or an evil one, so he had to find out what the truth was anyway.

Sure enough, Xiao Xia acquiesced.

"Actually, then, you can't blame him too much." Wan Li helped Ruan Zhan again, "Everyone's temperament is different, Ruan Zhan is a person who is not very easy to understand, even if it is me, I can't fully understand it. I understand him. However, I didn't expect you to see through his disguise all at once, it's amazing!"

"Che, don't you see who I am?"

"Yeah, keen intuition is your greatest strength. You should choose to walk with me. It's a pity to be a lawyer."

"Anything else to praise, say it in one breath."

"It can't be finished in one night! Let's talk about Ruan Zhan. You are not interested in knowing why we are friends, and why do I say he can be psychic?"

"I'm not interested." Xiao Xia was angry, but she was so curious.

"Then listen to it as a bedtime story. He and I have been friends for many years, we've actually known each other since the age of seven, and it's been twenty-four years now. He's not his father's biological son, he was killed when he was five years old. His father picked it up and later adopted him. I don't know if he remembers anything before the age of five, but he never said it anyway. His adoptive father used to be a Taoist priest. , so he had to return to the secular world, and later lived in our town. His father was very accomplished in ancient literature and miscellaneous studies, and even his name was taken from ancient books. "

"Don't talk nonsense, there's nothing esoteric about his name except that it feels a little weird."

"I don't know, his name comes from "Book of Jin - Ruan Zhan meets a ghost". I heard that this ancient Ruan Zhan was a ghost-free person. Later, he met a person who argued with him about it, and debated to the last one. The man lost, but he told Ruan Zhan that he was a ghost and turned away. Ruan Zhan fell ill in surprise and later died. I don't know why his father named him this name, it may be a metaphor that he was born with a certain This kind of ability is not necessarily certain, just like you were born in Xia Xia, you are called Xiao Xia, my parents want me to have a long journey, so I am called Wanli."

"How do you know that he has 'that' ability." It was late at night, and Xiao Xia didn't dare to say the word 'ghost', but this was the most curious thing about the relationship between Wan Li and Ruan Zhan.

"I didn't know him until I met him when I was seven years old. That year, something strange happened in our school, and then I had some supernatural events when I was in college, but I can't tell you for the time being, you are in an unstable state of mind now and you will be frightened. Yes, I'll talk to you later when I get a chance. Anyway, trust me, he can really see things we can't see, and he can drive them away."

"Aren't you afraid? Are you still friends with him?"

"Afraid! Why not! But I'm too curious to overcome my fear. After all, our fate is really not shallow. We were in the same class from elementary school to junior high school, and in middle school, male and female classes were divided into the same table. In high school After our family went to Chongqing, we still communicated with him who stayed in our hometown. Later, he didn't reply to me very much. I thought we were separated. Who would have thought that I would meet him again when I was in college in Beijing, and it was still the same department. ."

"He also studies psychology?" Xiao Xia was surprised. No wonder he was so good at disguising, but that couldn't escape her Yue Xiaoxia's eyes.

"Yeah. But he was gone after graduation. Later, when I came to work in this city, I didn't expect to meet him again. At that time, he opened that bar, and I don't know why he didn't pursue his profession. But you see , going around, we will always meet, we are destined to be friends by nature, and we can't run away."

"It sounds like you've been chasing him." Xiao Xia sarcastically.

"Eh? It's really like that. He is very passive about feelings. I don't think we have known each other for too long. I am a good and understanding person, and it is difficult for us to become friends."

"I think that's because you became friends at a very young age."

"Yes, that's the key factor. Children, no matter how ostracized the outside world may be, are always easy to make friends with each other. If I had only known him when he was an adult, he would probably have treated me as you say - kind and gentle in appearance, In fact, it rejects people for thousands of miles.”

"Speaking of which, it's all your fault. Knowing his personality, he still refuses to accompany me." Thinking of Ruan Zhan's polite and firm refusal, Xiao Xia couldn't help feeling that her self-esteem was hurt.

"You don't understand this." Wan Li felt Xiao Xia's unwillingness, and hurriedly expressed his thoughts, "Anyway, if I wanted to help you, I betrayed him, because I promised not to tell him about him. I will be angry with me for betraying my promise, so it will be bad for me to go out. When he calms down a little, I will have a better chance of appearing."

"But can he really help me?"

"You don't need to be suspicious, you don't need to be suspicious. I don't know if anyone is better than him, but I only know him, so that's the only thing I can help you with. Don't think about it, get a good night's sleep, and we'll find him the day after tomorrow. Whether you have dates or not, give it a try. Okay, I'm going to hang up, good night."

"Good night."

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Xia began to worry again. Still sleeping? It would be a nightmare, and she couldn't stand being frightened again and again. don't sleep? She has to go to work tomorrow, and now she is heavy and uncomfortable.

never mind! Let it go!
