Arc 5 – Deadly Thief
Chapter 91

In the Guangde Tea House, Ling Hua’an used bull tears to let Ma Donghai see Ma Xiaohan’s ghost and told him that Ma Xiaohan died in vain.

“It’s hard to say whether it’s medical malpractice. You need to apply for a forensic autopsy to examine the cause of death further, but I’m sure Ma Xiaohan didn’t die normally.”

“But since Hanhan was admitted to the hospital, we have been guarding almost his every step. He was only a seven or eight-year-old child. Who would murder him? I really don’t understand.”
Looking at Ma Xiaohan in front of him, it was clear he was right before him, but he couldn’t even hug him. Ma Donghai felt even more sad.

“Mr. Ma, Xiaohan is indeed just a child and will not have any grudges against people, but he is still your son in addition to himself. Perhaps you unintentionally made a grudge against someone. It’s not impossible for him to take revenge on Xiaohan.” Ling Hua’an paused and said, “Of course, this is all just speculation. For what exactly is going on, we need the help of the police to investigate it. To avoid those bad guys destroying the evidence left on the body, Mr. Ma would better apply for an autopsy as soon as possible.”

Ma Xiaohan looked at Ma Donghai and said, “Dad, Uncle Ling said that when the truth is revealed, I can go to reincarnation and start over again. I will have a healthy body and not have to take so much medicine. Dad, I want to be a healthy person.”

Other children’s dreams are to become ‘scientists’ and ‘teachers’, but Ma Xiaohan’s dream is just to become a healthy person, which makes no one listening to it feel good.

Tears filled Ma Donghai’s eyes again, and he said, “Okay, okay. Dad will help you fulfill your wish!”

Ma Xiaohan reached out to wipe Ma Donghai’s tears, but his fingers passed through Ma Donghai’s face. He hurriedly withdrew his hand, put it behind his back, and said, “Thank you, Dad. Don’t cry, Dad.”

Ma Donghai reached out to wipe his tears, looked at Ling Hua’an, and said, “Mr. Ling, thank you for helping us. I’ll go to the hospital, then to the police station. Whoever it is, I’ll find the murderer who killed Hanhan.”
“You don’t need to thank me. Xiaohan and I made an agreement before. This is what I should do… Mr. Ma, it’s not too late, before anything happens, you’d better hurry.”

Ma Donghai looked at Ma Xiaohan with some reluctance and said, “Mr. Ling, can I still see Han Han in the future?”

“Xiaohan will be with me until he is reincarnated. Mr. Ma, if you want to see him, you can come and find me.”  Ling Hua’an paused for a pause and said, “Mr. Ma, planting good causes gets good results. Planting evil causes gets evil results. This is the cycle of karma. Revenge is unforgiving. If you do something wrong, make up for it in time. Don’t make a big mistake, or you will incur retribution.”

Ma Donghai stared blankly at Ling Hua’an. Felt a little more in awe of him and said, “Thank you, Mr. Ling, for reminding me. I will do more good deeds in the future to accumulate blessings for my family.”

Ma Donghai didn’t stay any longer. He left Guangde Tea House and went straight to the city hospital opposite the street.

Just as Ma Donghai went out, Jiang Chengyan pushed the door and walked in, saying, “Hua’an, leave the rest to me. I’ll send you back to rest.”
Ling Hua’an didn’t try to be tough again. He has indeed reached his limit now. The location of the wound hurts badly, even a cold sweat appears on his forehead.
When he got home, Jiang Chengyan helped him to bed and ordered him not to go anywhere except to the bathroom. Ling Hua’an was forcing himself today, knowing he was wrong, so he obediently lay down.

Jiang Chengyan turned around and went to the kitchen to make lunch. Ma Xiaohan blinked his big eyes at Ling Hua’an and said enviously, “I envy you, having such a good friend.”

Ling Hua’an smiled and said, “I will put you in the bell. You can’t come out except when you are on duty, understand?”

“Bell? What bell? How do I get in?” Ma Xiaohan’s face was filled with curiosity.
Ling Hua’an took out a bell from the bedside table drawer, recited a silent incantation, and the next second, Ma Xiaohan disappeared from sight and was put into the bell.

“Hey, where am I? Am I in that little bell? How did you do it?”

Ling Hua’an ignored Ma Xiaohan’s successive questions, lightly clicked the bell, and the room became quiet. He squeezed his eyebrows and closed his eyes to rest.

Jiang Chengyan cooked two bowls of tomato and egg noodles brought them to the bedroom and found that Ling Hua’an had fallen asleep. He hesitated momentarily, thinking of Ling Hua’an’s stomach problems, and decided to wake him up.
Jiang Chengyan reached out and touched Ling Huaan’s pale face and called him in distress, “Hua’an, wake up. Eat something before going to sleep.”

Ling Hua’an opened his eyes wearily. Although it was still dark before him, he could feel the warmth of the people around him. He stretched his arms around Jiang Chengyan’s neck and said, “Captain Jiang, I want to kiss.”
Hearing Ling Hua’an’s rare coquettish tone, Jiang Chengyan was stunned for a moment, the corner of his mouth couldn’t help rising, and it was for the first time he kissed Ling Hua’an’s lips without blushing.

After a long time, the two pulled apart. Feeling Jiang Chengyan’s enthusiasm, Ling Hua’an couldn’t help but laugh lightly and said, “Captain Jiang is so responsive. Aren’t you afraid of being seen by Ma Xiaohan?”
Jiang Chengyan sniffed, his body stiffened, subconsciously looked around, and said in a dangerous tone, “Hua’an, you better tell me that there are only two of us in this bedroom.”

“If not, what will Captain Jiang do to me?” The smile in Ling Hua’an’s eyes gradually deepened.
Jiang Chengyan threatened viciously, “If there is a third person in this room, I will stay in the guest room for the next month.”

Ling Hua’an replied in cockiness, “staying in the guest room is fine, but you must be with me. Otherwise, Captain Jiang is not allowed to go anywhere!”

“Why are you so domineering!” Jiang Chengyan said so, but he felt sweetness inside his heart.

“I am. And it’s not the first day Captain Jiang knew about it.” Ling Hua’an replied.
“Wake up and hurry up to eat your noodles, or it will get soggy shortly.” Jiang Chengyan had long known that there was no one else in the room. Otherwise, he wouldn’t put his hand under his clothes. So what he said was to cooperate with Ling Hua’an. The unique love affair between them.

“Ow, my chest hurts. I can’t lift my hands up, so I can only trouble Captain Jiang to feed me.” Ling Hua’an, who has just embraced Jiang Chengyan to take advantage, instantly became weak.

Seeing this, Jiang Chengyan couldn’t help laughing. This Ling Hua’an’s appearance was too rare. Jiang Chengyan had to admit that he really liked it very much but cooperated by pretending to have a reluctant response and said, “Okay, I’ll feed you.”

Ling Hua’an laughed and said, “Captain Jiang,  your acting skills need to be improved, ah, I don’t need to look at it all to feel too fake.”

“As if you are a good actor. Okay, let’s eat now.”

The two couldn’t help but laugh aloud together. This warm feeling made them covet each other and made their unhappy moment more vivid.

***

On March 17, 3021, Ling Hua’an had just finished his breakfast when Zhang Mian knocked on the door of his room. Ling Hua’an tidied up and went with Zhang Mian’s help. Half an hour later, he arrived at the gate of Yan’s Hotel.
Standing downstairs, he looked up. Ling Hua’an frowned, looking at the Traces of resentment spreading throughout the hotel. He looked at Zhang Mian beside him and said, “Please ask everyone in the hotel out.”

Zhang Mian was stunned momentarily and then said in difficulty, “Mr. Ling, although the hotel’s business is sluggish, there are still guests. If you ask them out like this, I’m afraid it will damage the hotel’s reputation.”

“If the people inside don’t leave, they will die in less than two days. Whether you do it or not,  it’s your choice.” Ling Hua’an didn’t have time to explain to Zhang Mian and said the consequences directly. He believed Zhang Mian knew what to do.

Seeing Ling Hua’an’s solemn expression, Zhang Mian began to waver and said, “Okay, I will do as Mr. Ling wants.”
“Go ahead. The sooner, the better. I’ll wait for you in the car.”

“Okay, I’ll send Mr. Ling back to the car.”
After sending Ling Hua’an back to the car, Zhang Mian called Yan Yu again. After all, the impact of such a big event was not small. He was only a little assistant and still had to ask the boss for instructions.

Yan Yu replied, “do as Mr. Ling said. No need to ask for my instruction.”
After the boss gave the words, Zhang Mian no longer had any worries. He organized an invitation for the guests very fast for them to leave the hotel.

An hour later, Zhang Mian returned to the car, looked at Ling Hua’an, and said, “Mr. Ling, I have asked all the guests out to the grounds of inviting them to the banquet. But the banquet will end at three o’clock in the afternoon. We must resolve the matter in the hotel as soon as possible.”
Ling Hua’an asked, “Is there anyone else in the hotel?”

“There shouldn’t be anyone. I’ve instructed all the staff to leave the hotel.”
Ling Hua’an pushed open the car door and got out, saying, “Wait here, don’t go in.”

“But President Yan…”

Ling Hua’an interrupted Zhang Mian and said, “There is no room for negotiation in what I said.”

Zhang Mian was stunned, staring blankly at Ling Hua’an’s back. He was in a daze momentarily, as if one of them was a high-ranking emperor and the other was like a courtier crawling down.

Ling Hua’an took out the bell, chanted the incantation silently to release Ma Xiaohan, and said, “Xiaohan, from now on, you will be my eyes. Don’t be afraid no matter what you see. I am here.”

Ma Xiaohan looked in the direction of the hotel. An ominous feeling came over him. He cowered a bit, walked to Ling Hua’an’s side, and said, “Uncle, there seems to be something terrifying in this building.”
“Don’t worry, with me around, and they can’t hurt you.”

Under Ma Xiaohan’s guidance, Ling Hua’an entered the hotel door smoothly. The moment they entered, the door slammed shut and locked with a clatter.

“There are… there are ghosts.” Ma Xiaohan hid behind Ling Hua’an in fear.

Seeing this, Ling Hua’an laughed and said, “You’re also a ghost. What’s there to be afraid of?”
“Huh, yeah, I’m a ghost too.” Ma Xiaohan walked out from Ling Hua’an’s back again.

Suddenly, a ‘creaking’ sound rang out, like a rat trying to gnaw the floor, and then there was another ‘crunching’ sound like a rusted machine, which seemed highly terrifying in a tranquil environment.
“Uncle …… uncle, what is this sound? Why is it so scary?”

Ling Hua’an ignored Ma Xiaohan and looked in the direction of the voice. A long-haired female ghost in a bright red dress slowly approached them in a twisted posture. It was the sound of her joints twisting.

“Uncle…Uncle, she…she, she, she crawled over!”

The female ghost’s movements were languid, her twisted limbs crawling little by little on the ground, her blood-red eyes staring straight at them, and a strange sound from her throat seemed to be strangled. It is particularly terrifying in this hotel full of grievances.
