Chapter 597: The True and the Fake Senior Shu


    When Ireturnedwith the ointment, I foundSenior Shuin Li Mazis room. His life-boundrat sat in a corner. It was looking at me with its twinkling eyes.


    WhenSenior Shusaw me, hewas fuming.You woke me up with your loud kick to the door!


    Then, he turned to help Li Mazi.


    Atthis moment, the life-bound rat crawled up to the bed and squeaked atSenior Shu.Senior Shuwas startled. His face paled in fright. He flusteredand screamed, Shoo this rat away!


    All right! My face darkened immediately. I nodded at him, then abruptlyshed with the Sirius Whip!


    This man wasntSenior Shu.Senior Shuhad always treatedhislife-bound rat even better thanhow he treatedhischildren. How could he be afraid of that fat-ass rat?


    The fakeSenior Shuscreeched. He turned into a green shadowand flewthrough the door.


    Everything had happened in justtheblink of an eye. When I got myself together, the green shadow hadalreadygone far enough. I gritted my teeth to chase after it, but I losttrackof itonthe porch.


    After gasping for my breath andcontrollingmy anger, I returned to the room. Surprisingly,Senior Shuwas there. He had already settled Li Mazi on the bed and was putting something intohismouth.


    Youbastard! EvenBuddhawould get angry after getting tricked again and again, let alone me, a hot-tempered, vigorous man! I couldnt stand it anymore. That thing had teased us twice! I aimed atSenior Shus napeand hit it hard!


    Senior Shuwasquickto grab the Sirius Whip. He pantedand fumed, Kiddo, what are you doing?!


    Wait, are you the realSenior Shu? I asked carefully.


    Little rascal, you dont even recognize your grandfather! What a fool you are! scoldedSenior Shu.


    I got the situation now. Ifthis man wasnt Senior Shu, he wouldnt have been able to grab the Sirius Whipwith his bare hands. Moreover, I noticed that his life-boundrat was sitting calmly on his shoulder.


    After Iconfirmedhis identity, I exhaled in relief. I told him what had happened.Senior Shugave me a slight nod and didnt say anything else; hecontinued to help Li Mazitakethe medicine. I then put the Securing Essence Ointment on the crown of his head.


    After everything was done, I was a little scaredand asked, Senior Shu, do you think its rted to the iron swallow?


    Senior Shufrowned. He thought for a while then nodded. His voice was low and worried. The three of us are here, but sheonly cameto the two of you. It means she isnt my match! I think well know soonenoughif its rted to the iron swallow.


    You mean, therewassomeone behind thisghost? I asked.


    Well know tomorrow. I need to sleep now.Senior Shuwaved at methenleft the room. I thought that thing wouldnt dare toe again. I checked around Li Mazis room, then returned to my room to sleep.


    Early the next morning, Li Mazi woke up. He looked much better thanst night.He gingerly asked, What happenedst night?


    After thinking about his X-rated scenest night, Iwanted to forget about it. However, as he had kept pestering me, I had to tell him the truth.


    Li Mazi took in a deep breath. In atremblingvoice, he said,Last night, I dreamt about Ru Xue and I doing, er, things.Didthat thingbewitchme?


    If that thing could impersonateSenior Shu, it wouldnt be a problem for it to transform into Ru Xues appearance to enchant Li Mazi.


    After confirming that he didnt betray Ru Xue, I wasntasangry as before. We went to wake upSenior Shuto have breakfast. Then, we drove to Feng Yuanzhengs neighborhood.


    It was a high-end neighborhood with good security. When the security guardsdiscoveredthat we didnt live there and saw thatno onehadeto pick us up at the entrance, they didnt allow us to enter the neighborhood. I had to call Feng Yuanzheng.


    Hello Mr. Feng, how is it going in your house?


    Dont mention it. Yan wont go out Feng Yuanzheng sounded reluctant. Yesterday, she sneaked out veryte at night. When she came back, shegrimaced, and her clothes were torn. It looked like shefoughtwith someone. Shesrestingin the bedroom andthrowing atantrum.


    Feng Yuanzheng sounded embarrassedas he continued, Could youe back another day?


    I didnt answer him but turned to tellSenior Shuthat Zhang Yan had gone outst night.


    Its getting more interestingSenior Shus eyes turned brighter. He took the phone from meand askedFeng Yuanzheng to watch Zhang Yan. Then, we returned to the hotel.


    Last night, someone hade to trouble us. From what Feng Yuanzheng had described, I had a feeling that Zhang Yan was behind this.


    Of course, we had to wait and see.


    When we arrived at the hotel, we saw the hotels managerpointingat the surveince screen. He was gesturing something. I craned my neck to see. On the screen, Zhang Yan was standing outside the window. She wassupporting herselfonthe balcony.


    The ce she was standingon wasLi Mazis balcony. Moreover, the times matched, too. It was enough to proveSenior Shus assumption.


    I wanted to take a closer look. However, the manager stopped mewith an unfriendlytone. Kid, you kicked the door openst night.Do youwant to check the cameraanddestroy the evidence?


    Emh I hesitated for a while, then remembered that I had kicked the door of the hotel to save Li Mazi. When we left this morning, the room service hadnte yet. I forgot this detail.


    I immediately gave the manager several thousand renminbi aspensation, then asked to see the surveince cameras. The managerchanged his attitude toward me. He showed me the scene where Zhang Yan appearedst night. My heart throbbed.


    On the screen, Zhang Yan looked around cautiously. Then, she slowly climbed on the water pipe and stopped at our floor. Seeing the scene, I dropped my jaw in awe. It wasnt enough to describe her by saying that her body was as light asaswallow. Zhang Yans name wasnt just in vain!


    She clung onto the pipe and stood on the outer block of the air conditioneras she assessedthe three rooms. Eventually, she skippedSenior Shus roomanddirectly jumpedinto my windowand hungin there. While doing so, she kept mumbling something


    Immediately, a green shadow floated up from her body. It swayed a few times in the airbefore turningtransparent. Then, it flew into the room through the window.


    A few minutester, the green shadowranaway. It was damaged because I was reading the Sacred Text of Daoism at that time.


    Zhang Yan wasnt satisfied. She rolled her eyes at my room, then turned to the balcony outside Li Mazis room.Usingthe same method, she sent the shadow to the room.


    The shadow hadnte back after a long time. Zhang Yan now wore a morbid smile. I knew it was when Li Mazi wasmaking loveon the bed. I shot him a despising nce.


    Li Maziworea wry smileas Irolled my eyes at him. Since I knew Zhang Yan was behind this, I didnt want to watch the video anymore. ButSenior Shusuddenly stopped meand askedme to continue watching.


    Zhang Yans face suddenly paled. Then, she sat downand gaspedfor her breath. It looked as if she had justengaged in afight. After a long time, she finally left.


    I had so many questionsonmymind.Why did Zhang Yan feel pain when I hit the green shadow in the room?


    Perhaps she hasmerged with thatspirit!


    I shared mythoughtswithSenior Shu.


    Senior Shublew on hismustache and smiled. Are you saying thatthespiritcontrolled her? Well, I think its the opposite.Shes the one controlling thespiritto kill us!


    Idroppedmy jaw. Although Id experienced howrudeZhang Yancould be,I couldnt believe thatshe wanted to kill us for real!
