The Female Cannon Fodder With Boundless Merits-Chapter 246 - 250: The Ancient Mansion Haunted (19)

What kind of shenanigans is this.

If time weren’t pressing, everyone really felt like looking up and bursting into laughter. Are you guys not clowns invited by monkeys?

The anciently dressed beauty, known as Mrs. Qing, seemed to have malice brimming in her ghostly eyes to the point of overflowing.

"It seems you did your homework."

Su Li: "You bet."

"You all, come over here." Su Li, seemingly oblivious to the chilling malevolence emanating from Mrs. Qing and Lady Mo, the two female ghosts, beckoned to a few of the male ghosts among them.

"Xu Shaofeng, Lin Xi, Guan Zhixing, Liang Bingzhao... Your families have already reported you as missing. Now that you have been found, come out and stand aside to make a statement, and you also need to identify the murderers."

Fang Zheng, hearing Su Li rattle off, widened his eyes and couldn’t help but say, "Are you kidding me?"

The murderers here were ghosts. Did she actually expect the ghosts to submit to the law?

Mrs. Qing was already seething with laughter at Su Li’s disregard, to the point where her beautiful facade could no longer be maintained, revealing a mummified appearance dry as old bark—nothing near as attractive as the mummy Su Li first encountered.

This made Su Li even more displeased, and she barked, "Change back."

Mrs. Qing, about to make a move, stalled.

"I said change back. So ugly—don’t you know to tidy up before meeting guests?"

Like her daughter, Lady Mo, what Mrs. Qing cared about the most in life was her beauty, even in death she couldn’t escape vanity.

Being called ugly to her face was unbearable. She was about to rage like thunder, and the brightly lit room suddenly filled with darkness visible to the naked eye. It was Mrs. Qing’s hair, enveloping the entire space, trapping them as if inside a black cocoon.

Lin Mianmian shook and glared resentfully at Su Li, "It’s all her fault. Why provoke these two female ghosts?"

Upon hearing this, Shu Yifei swung her fists, ready to walk over to Lin Mianmian, "Do you want a beating? Shut up, bitch."

Lin Mianmian shrank back in fright, lowering her eyes, not daring to say more.

"Resisting arrest. Take them in."

The officers following behind drew their toy guns and aimed at the rampaging female ghosts as soon as Su Li finished speaking.

If they ignored the scene they were currently facing, they would find it laughable.

Pointing toy guns at female ghosts—was it a real-life CS match?

But before they could scatter their ridiculous notions, something that truly tested their beliefs occurred.

A volley of shots from the toy guns struck the female ghosts and actually inflicted damage.

Bullets from the Biological Gun formed a big net, leaving Mrs. Qing and Lady Mo screaming with nowhere to escape.

As their ghost bodies turned as thin as paper, they hastily raised their hands to beg for mercy.

Seeing this, Jing Hao stepped forward, snapping what looked like an ordinary handcuff onto the wrists of Mrs. Qing and Lady Mo.

The two female ghosts visibly reverted to their pre-death appearance, their bodies covered in blood, necks nearly severed by a cut leaving only a sliver of flesh connected.

This was their truest form.

With Mrs. Qing and Lady Mo’s control gone, clarity returned to the eyes of the previously manipulated male ghosts. Those called by Su Li obediently stood aside, cooperating with the police to give their statements.

According to them, all the men, except for a few who had escaped, were here, while all the women had been killed by Lady Mo, their souls devoured.

With the danger of the place lifted, Gu Shi and the others relaxed considerably.

Fang Zheng finally understood. The government had something to be confident about.

His eyes sparkled as he looked at the Biological Guns in the hands of Jing Hao and others, licked his dry lips, and couldn’t suppress the excitement in his voice, "What, what is that?"

Shu Yifei looked at him as if he were an idiot, "Are you blind? It’s a gun."

At this moment, he no longer showed the previous arrogance towards Jing Hao; he put on a sheepish face, circling around him.

Gu Shi was also in a daze, "Is it, over?"

He had thought he would die here.

It wasn’t until now that he seemed to realize Su Li was no longer the person he remembered.

The relief from a narrow escape from death made Gu Shi feel somewhat grateful to Su Li.

He hesitated for a moment, planning to walk over to thank her, but Lin Mianmian tightly grabbed his arm, preventing him from moving.

Gu Shi asked in confusion, "Mianmian, what’s wrong?"

Lin Mianmian had tearful eyes, said nothing, just shook her head, but also didn’t allow Gu Shi to move.

Even though Su Li had saved them, Lin Mianmian still couldn’t muster any fondness for this most beautiful woman.

Without the constant feeling of life-threatening urgency, some matters couldn’t be easily let go.

"Mr. Gu, how do you account for using my disciple as a shield?"

Cheng Zaili’s chilling words suddenly resounded, causing the relaxed moods of Gu Shi and Lin Mianmian to tense up again.

Gu Shi also felt guilty. After all, his actions indeed had harmed others, but he did not regret it.

If it hadn’t been for that girl, Mianmian would have been the one in peril.

Cheng Zaili clearly saw Gu Shi’s lack of remorse and was even more infuriated.

Gu Shi said, "After we leave, I will cover all the medical expenses your disciples need, and how about I build another Daoist Temple for your sect?"

Cheng Zaili said with a dark face, "No need, the female ghost originally attacked Lin Mianmian. My disciple just suffered in her stead. Whatever pain my disciple endured, just let her experience it as well."

Lin Mianmian, unable to believe it, shed tears, "How can you be so vicious... Gu Shi didn’t mean it, he just wanted to protect me."

"Who made her so unlucky to just stand beside.... Gu Shi is already willing to compensate you, what more do you want?"

Lin Mianmian’s words completely infuriated Cheng Zaili; he slapped her fair face with a swing of his hand.

"I don’t want much, but I just want to teach you a lesson. Such a young girl, yet so craftily wicked."

Just when everyone thought the danger had passed, a gusty wind suddenly started blowing outside.

Mrs. Qing and Lady Mo, who had been docile just a moment ago, suddenly started to struggle, their faces filled with panic and dread.

"Sister is coming, she’s coming..."

The two female ghosts wanted to run, but the handcuffs, made of some unknown material, restrained their powers, leaving them as helpless as ordinary people, unable even to burrow into the ground.

"Quickly release us, we’re going to die, we will die..."

Shu Yifei couldn’t stand the noisy sound waves besieging her ears. She bellowed at Mrs. Qing and Lady Mo, "Shut up, you two are already dead beyond dead, how do you want to die again?"

After yelling, Shu Yifei felt clear-headed and delighted, brimming with joy.

She had actually shouted at two Evil Ghosts; that was enough to make her proud for a whole year.
