CHAPTER

CHAPTER 101 - POLICE CALL

It should be. I was in a hurry to take you away, so I didn't care too much about it. The Sorrowful Demon answered Tongtong's question.

Can you take me again?

To the hospital? The Sorrowful Demon asked.

Uh-huh, yeah! I'm going back for my watch and my clothes. " Tongtong hurriedly said.

Forget it, it's not like it's anything precious. If it's gone, then it's gone. I'll buy you something new.

Just as the Sorrowful Demon was about to leave, Tongtong was still in hot pursuit. She quickly said, Don't go yet!

What's wrong? The Sorrowful Demon looked at Tongtong.

That watch is very important to me, it was given to me by Sister Xiaobai, I can't lose it, if not she will be angry when I go back. So can you take me there?

I reckon the items are already treated like garbage, so it's better not to look for them. Buy another one. The Sorrowful Demon persisted in speaking as if she could not see Tongtong's anxiousness.

That definitely won't do! Tongtong looked at the Sorrowful Demon, Why is it that sometimes you listen to me so much, and sometimes you don't listen at all! What if my watch is still there?

Yes. The Sorrowful Demon's anger could no longer be concealed, but he still insisted on hiding it, not letting it be revealed. It became extremely obvious, "It's just a watch, what does it matter to you? Humans these days have already used their cellphones to communicate with each other.

I want a watch!

Tongtong angrily patted her blanket with both hands, looking like she was about to lose her mind, Bring me there!

The Sorrowful Demon could not help but look at Tongtong fiercely, Why do you not dare to speak the truth? Go find it? Why are you looking for that? Like I said, it's just a watch. It's not just looking at time, I can give you something better. Why do you want me to point it out? Don't think I don't know what you're thinking."

…

Tongtong was shocked by the Sorrowful Demon's current appearance. Hearing its words, Tongtong was stunned.

Obviously, it already knew.

But how did it know?

I... I don't understand what you're saying. Tongtong immediately lowered her head, she did not dare meet the Sorrowful Demon's gaze, and felt extremely guilty.

You don't understand? Are you still lying to me? I didn't want to say it, but you forced me to say it. Do you think I don't know anything just because I'm not human?

I have lived in this world for many years longer than Chen Shaoyan. What haven't I seen? What treachery, what hypocrisy, I've seen too much, and you still want to act in front of me? I just don't want to expose you.

In one breath, the Sorrowful Demon said so much to Tongtong, and it was extremely ear piercing to her ears. Some of the words were so profound that she couldn't understand them, but she knew that the Sorrowful Demon's words made her feel very uncomfortable, and caused her to experience awkwardness at such a young age.

The room was silent for a long time.

After a while, the sound of Tongtong sniffing came up. She blew her nose with a tissue, and then said with a trembling voice, I don't want it, just …

It was only now that she completely understood that the Sorrowful Demon wouldn't just indulge her in everything. At the very least, it would be so patient that it might even make a move against her.

In order to live, in order to return to Chen Shaoyan's side, she had to be sensible, or else she might not even be able to return.

Alright, I'll go get you something to eat.

The Sorrowful Demon glanced at Tongtong, and then immediately left, turning into its original form and disappearing in the blink of an eye.

As for Tongtong, after the Sorrowful Demon left, he heaved a sigh of relief. It was very obvious just now that the Sorrowful Demon was very angry.

It didn't even care if it cried.

Tongtong realized this and suddenly felt that the chances of him being able to return to Chen Shaoyan's side through the Sorrowful Demon basically did not exist, because the Sorrowful Demon did not seem to want her to go back at all.

If that was the case, Tongtong might have to change her next target. After all, without her phone, he needed to make Chen Shaoyan take the initiative to look for her, or go near the Contract Bookstore to play, so that she could meet his.

But before that, Tongtong had to make the Sorrowful Demon lower its guard. Otherwise, it would not be able to let Tongtong have his way.

After thinking about it, Tongtong leaned against the bed and looked at the television, quickly immersing herself in the animated drama.

Not knowing how much time had passed, Tongtong felt like peeing, so she left her room to find a bathroom. In the bathroom, she found that everything the previous owner of the house was still there, including the clothes that she had not washed in the basin.

You didn't bring anything when you left?

Tongtong felt that it was a little strange, but she did not think too much about it.

After washing her hands, she went back to the bed, covered herself with the blanket and continued watching cartoons, waiting for the Sorrowful Demon to come back.

Chen Shaoyan did not find Tongtong, and returned to his Contract Bookstore. One night had passed, and even though it was daybreak, he did not close the door, and was still waiting for Tongtong's call.

Since he could fight once, then so could the second time.

With that thought in mind, Chen Shaoyan continued to sit in the bookstore, calming himself down.

When he suddenly received a call from Tongtong, hearing her voice and not finding it, his heart would inevitably be in turmoil, but just thinking about it would be useless.

When it was close to noon, Contract Bookstore welcomed a police car, and without saying a word, the people on board got off and walked towards the interior of Contract Bookstore.

After Chen Shaoyan who was reading initially noticed this, he stopped looking through the books. At the same time, he raised his head and looked towards the police officers.

Hello, we are from the City of Y police station. Wang Rui said as he took out his ID from his police uniform.

Yes. Chen Shaoyan expressed that he understood.

Are you the owner of the bookstore, Chen Shaoyan?

Chen Shaoyan nodded, Mn, it's me.

What about your daughter Chen Tongtong? Wang Rui went up and asked immediately.

Chen Shaoyan and Wang Rui's sharp eyes met, they were calm and collected, without any other emotion, She's gone missing, no one knows where he is, just say whatever you have to say.

Oh, it's like this. Yesterday, we received a call to the police at W Town. The hospital's nurse reported that a little boy carried a little girl with a bleeding head there. After bringing the girl into the operation room, the boy went missing. He was unable to contact his family and asked us to help him contact them.

When Chen Shaoyan heard this, he seemed to understand something, Mn, I understand. How much does the treatment cost?"

Wang Rui stared intently at Chen Shaoyan and asked, You don't have any questions?

Didn't I ask how much it would cost?

Hearing that, Wang Rui exchanged glances with the person behind him, then said: We must definitely give the money, but we rushed here from the Y City for something else.

What is it?

You should know that there was a huge street massacre in your neighborhood the day before yesterday, right? Wang Rui stared at Chen Shaoyan.

Oh, I heard about that. When Chen Shaoyan heard this, his expression did not change, and he leaned on the chair.

CHAPTER 102 - CROSS-CITY SURVEY

Wang Rui looked at Chen Shaoyan who was leaning on the chair, his eyes sharp, Then do you know who did it?

Got it. Chen Shaoyan replied.

Wang Rui was slightly surprised when he heard it, as he did not seem to expect Chen Shaoyan's reply to be so direct and decisive.

Then please come with us to the local police station! We need you to cooperate with the investigation.

Chen Shaoyan looked at him, Can you ask here? I'm not a suspect, why would I go to the police?

But you are related to the suspect, so it is not convenient to ask about it here. Why don't you follow us to the police station and have a good talk? We won't make things difficult for you, you just need to cooperate. Wang Rui said.

What if I don't cooperate? Chen Shaoyan looked at him.

Sorry, if we don't cooperate, we can only take measures to get you to cooperate. But if you can do it well, then do it well. Why do you insist on making things difficult, don't you think?"

Chen Shaoyan looked at Wang Rui, and lightly tapped his finger on the table, If you want to ask, just ask here, if not ask, then leave. This is my place. If someone were to make a move and suffer first, there are still two things that I have to say."

Hearing that, the police officer beside Wang Rui immediately looked angry, as though he was going to attack.

Don't. Wang Rui extended his hand to stop the policeman behind him. That man stared at Chen Shaoyan with unfriendly eyes, and when faced with Wang Rui's obstruction, he could only shout out, Captain!

Wang Rui looked at him, I'll take care of it.

Wang Rui tried his best to be calm as he said to Chen Shaoyan, "The rules are set by the people. Since you are not satisfied with this rule, then I will respect you.

Chen Shaoyan didn't pay attention to Wang Rui as he took out a paper cup and poured a cup of water for himself.

However, reason told them that they absolutely could not act rashly. After all, they had seen the footage of Chen Shaoyan earlier, and had wanted to wait until the end of the matter to see if it would have any late effects. However, they did not receive any more information.

Furthermore, he could not find any information, all the posts that were posted on the topic of Chen Shaoyan were all deleted, and some true information was even spread around in the police force.

There were still a lot of truthful answers to all of these things, so Wang Rui had to take them seriously. He had to be on guard against Chen Shaoyan, because he needed to be careful when sailing on a ship for ten thousand years.

Can you come out and sit? Everyone, let's sit together. Otherwise, it would be inconvenient for us to talk to you from behind this counter.

The policeman that was stopped by Wang Rui just now spoke out to Chen Shaoyan, and after Chen Shaoyan heard it, he looked at him with a smile that was not a smile.

Other than the policeman, everyone else was confused. Wang Rui also had a face of doubt, they could not tell what the meaning of this action was, and in the next moment, Chen Shaoyan straightforwardly replied to the police officer's suggestion.

You think you can subdue me if I go out?

Hearing that, the policeman panicked, as he had been seen through by Chen Shaoyan. He did not know what to say anymore, and threw a pleading look at Wang Rui.

Wang Rui on the other hand, had a calm expression as he said to Chen Shaoyan, "I think you're mistaken, that's not what he meant. He also didn't mean it for long, and he just graduated from school.

Chen Shaoyan didn't say a word, and only looked at Wang Rui.

The two of them looked at each other for a few seconds, but Wang Rui did not move his gaze away, while Chen Shaoyan simply smiled and shifted his gaze away.

Whatever you say.

Wang Rui pretended not to understand Chen Shaoyan's ridicule, and said: I also think that you need to come out, this is your basic respect to us, I said I won't do it, I definitely won't.

I've already said it before. If we were to make a move, it would be hard to say who would be the first to suffer. Even though he said those words, Chen Shaoyan still walked out from the counter, and then sat down in a row beside the bookshelves.

Soon after, the other policemen sat down as well.

This time, the one asking the question was not Wang Rui, but the more impulsive policeman. He looked at Chen Shaoyan and said, Since you know that your daughter is missing, why don't you look for her?

I did, but the clues on the way were cut off.

When Chen Shaoyan replied, the other policeman that did not say anything began to write.

Where did you find it?

Your city. Chen Shaoyan replied.

How did you know she was in Y City?

It's not convenient to reveal. Chen Shaoyan's expression was calm.

The police officer who asked the question immediately turned to Chen Shaoyan when he heard it, "Don't hide anything from me. If this happens, we will help you find your daughter, Chen Tongtong.

Chen Shaoyan chuckled, I didn't say that I would rely on you two, did I? A task given by the higher ups is a mission given by the higher ups. It's useless to beat around the bush here, just say whatever you want to say."

Seeing Chen Shaoyan's attitude, the police officer who asked the question looked at Wang Rui, who hesitated before replying, It's fine, just ask as many questions as you can.

Receiving Wang Rui's order, the police officer who asked the question paused, then asked Chen Shaoyan, Then can you give a brief summary of how your daughter went missing?

When I went to pick her up from school, she had already been taken away. Chen Shaoyan replied.

The police officer who asked the question quickly asked, Did you see the school monitor? Who took her? Do you know him?

I didn't see it on the monitor. I know who it is.

What's your name? The three policemen stared at Chen Shaoyan's face, waiting for his answer. Chen Shaoyan, on the other hand, raised his head to scan their faces in succession, and said, It doesn't have a name. If it doesn't like you, it will end its life in a tragic way as soon as possible. For the sake of your lives, it is recommended that you skip this question.

Besides, it's useless for you to know.

Without waiting for the policeman to ask, Wang Rui immediately asked, Was it cultivator who took your daughter away?

Chen Shaoyan was a little surprised, You even know of cultivator?

When the other two policemen were confused, Wang Rui said, Mhm. If there are too many cases, it's inevitable that we will meet each other."

Chen Shaoyan chuckled, But you guessed wrong. That kind of existence is not something that the cultivator can compare to.

A peculiar expression flashed across Wang Rui's face, as though he wanted to say something, but in the next moment he recovered.

Immediately, the police continued to ask, Then why did it bring Chen Tongtong away, do you know?

Not really. Chen Shaoyan replied.

Aren't you in a hurry?

The police officer who asked the question looked at Chen Shaoyan's disinterested appearance and felt that there was a huge difference in attitude between him and someone else's missing daughter. He did not seem to be nervous at all.

I'm not in a hurry, what does it have to do with your investigation? I won't answer your personal question, so I'll have to ask. Anyhow, I don't have to hide my person. "

The policemen looked at each other in dismay. If there was someone with this attitude in the past, they would have done it already. However, the person they faced today was different, so they had to endure it.

CHAPTER 103 - THINKING METHOD

I'm back.

The Sorrowful Demon appeared in front of Tongtong's bed. It carried a lot of things and placed them all on the bed.

Wah! What is this!? "

Seeing that, Tongtong immediately climbed onto the blanket and flipped it over. She found a lot of snacks, clothes, shoes and underwear, they all looked like they were for her.

Are these all for me?

The Sorrowful Demon looked at Tongtong, Otherwise, can you still give it to me?

Ugh … Thank you. " Tongtong said, she then took out his clothes and separated them from the food.

Suddenly, Tongtong discovered something.

This is …

Tongtong looked at the item in her hand. She could clearly see that the time inside the transparent box was still passing, one second, two seconds, three seconds, slowly increasing.

Didn't you just ask for a watch? I brought it to you. It may not be the same as yours, but it all depends on the time.

Tongtong looked at Sorrowful Demon in a daze. She did not know what to say, wasn't it angry just now?

Didn't you get angry and say a lot of nasty things?

Why are you still …

Are you hungry now? Eat these, and I'll take you out to play after you've recovered. You can go anywhere you want." Sorrowful Demon opened the bag that contained snacks, poured out all of the Jelly Lollipop Corn Intestines and piled them all on the bed.

Tongtong felt that the Sorrowful Demon was treating him so well, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, Thank you, I made you angry before …. You don't mind now?"

What's there to mind? Sorrowful Demon sat on the side of the bed and took her watch from Tongtong. Then, she quickly opened the package and said to Tongtong, Give me your hand.

Tongtong did as she was told, the Sorrowful Demon placed the watch on Tongtong's wrist, then said, Are you satisfied? I thought you should like this, so I brought it.

Satisfied, satisfied, very satisfied. Tongtong smiled as she replied the Sorrowful Demon. Then, as if she suddenly thought of something, she quickly asked, Did you steal this from me again?

What else can you do?

Tongtong looked at the Sorrowful Demon and frowned, But that's not right! Others have also worked hard to earn money to support their families. If you do this, they will probably be sad …"

It's fine if you're happy, but why do you care about others? It's none of your business.

But when you do things, you have to consider the feelings of others. You have to think for others, otherwise, you won't be a good person.

The Sorrowful Demon showed an indifferent attitude. It had never cared about other people's feelings, it had been sad and sad ever since it was born. From the moment it had opened its mind, it knew that its existence brought about suffering to humanity, and even more so, it did not have any kind intentions.

You are still young, so you don't understand many things. What you know is what others have taught you. On the surface, those people are good people. They say that they are righteous, but in reality, what they do is the opposite of what they say.

Tongtong said with a sad face, Why do you say that? You know different from what I know.

Seeing Tongtong's disappointed look, the Sorrowful Demon said, "Don't think too much into it. Your main goal right now was to recuperate from your injuries.

But I don't agree with what you're saying.

I'll prove it to you when you're better. Humans are evil and vicious, but you didn't see it. I can take you to see it and let you understand what I'm talking about.

Tongtong nodded, Alright then.

Yes. The Sorrowful Demon passed the food to Tongtong, and upon seeing her look at the food, her expression immediately changed, becoming more and more happy.

Delicious, delicious.

The Sorrowful Demon looked at Tongtong who had a face full of satisfaction, and did not say a word.

You don't eat? Tongtong asked the Sorrowful Demon.

The Sorrowful Demon shook its head, I won't, you eat.

Why aren't you eating?

I don't need to eat.

Ah? Then aren't you hungry? Tongtong had a face full of curiosity.

I'm different from humans. I rely on sucking on the pessimism of humans to cultivate, not eating. The Sorrowful Demon answered.

Oh, well then. Tongtong nodded.

After a while, the Sorrowful Demon's gaze was no longer on Tongtong. Seeing that the Sorrowful Demon was attracted to the television set, Tongtong heaved a sigh of relief, and started to think about what to do.

She did not know Chen Shaoyan's number, but Sorrowful Demon only bought her an ordinary watch, it did not have the ability to call, so Tongtong could only wait until her injuries were healed and when the Sorrowful Demon took her out to play, she could contact Chen Shaoyan.

However, during this period, Tongtong had already made other plans. She had decided to pull herself together and not think about going back home everyday, and since she had already cut off all contact with Chen Shaoyan, she could not let him come over directly. Thus, she could only make the Sorrowful Demon no longer guard against her going back to Chen Shaoyan's side.

Then, according to what Chen Shaoyan had said before, Tongtong was prepared to change the way Sorrowful Demon thought. She would let him know the good of humans and not let him only see the bad side of humans.

Looking at the Sorrowful Demon turning into a boy's back, Tongtong secretly made up her mind. She had to complete father's mission!

Thank you for your cooperation.

Before Wang Rui left, he said that as he reached out his hand for Chen Shaoyan to shake hands. However, Chen Shaoyan did not reach out his hand.

Sorry for the trouble.

It's our duty. Although Wang Rui did not get a handshake from Chen Shaoyan, he felt quite satisfied after hearing his emotionless expression of gratitude.

Such a strange person, yet he still knew to say thank you.

The police car drove away from the police station, Chen Shaoyan walked out of the bookstore and watched the police car.

According to his style of doing things, not to mention taking notes with them, he would be forgiving if they were allowed to stay in the bookstore for ten minutes. The reason he made an exception was because he saw a video of a Sorrowful Demon carrying Tongtong into the hospital.

At least from this point, telling the police some information was not completely useless. After all, they were everywhere and when the time came, they might really be able to find Tongtong.

Furthermore, Chen Shaoyan was actually not very worried about Tongtong's current situation, because he knew that the injury on Tongtong's head was immediately taken away by the Sorrowful Demon after being sewn. This meant that the Sorrowful Demon still cared about Tongtong a lot, otherwise, it wouldn't have brought Tongtong into the hospital in such a rush.

It was true that it could not save others, but regarding Tongtong, Chen Shaoyan believed that it would not do anything harmful.

Because of what?

Chen Shaoyan couldn't explain it either.

This was like an unforgivable scoundrel who killed many people and looked down on no one. However, he had a gentle side to him. He would not allow anyone to harm the things that he cared about, including himself.

And Tongtong, was precisely the person it cared about.

CHAPTER 104 - CULTIVATION OF SORROWFUL DEMONS

So thirsty …

Just as she was sleeping, Tongtong blurted out those words. The lamp immediately lit up, and the Sorrowful Demon also transformed into a human. It turned on the bottle of water and helped Tongtong up from the bed.

In the midst of half a dream, Tongtong drank a few mouthfuls of water, then fell back asleep satisfied, while the light was turned off again.

The room was quiet, as if nothing had happened.

Tongtong changed back into her original form.

Every time it transformed into a human, there would be a price to pay. All the energy that came from the Sorrowful Demon was accumulated from absorbing the grief of humans, and every time it transformed into a human, it would cost a lot of sadness.

Afraid that Tongtong was afraid of her body, the Sorrowful Demon would always appear in front of Tongtong as a boy who was slightly older than her. When she fell asleep, the Sorrowful Demon would transform back into its original form and stand guard by her side.

To Tongtong, Sorrowful Demon may be scary, but to Sorrowful Demon, Tongtong was extremely important. This kind of important foundation, the Sorrowful Demon did not know where or when it came to.

He vaguely remembered that when he first saw Tongtong, the Sorrowful Demon felt that something very important had appeared. It felt a sense of intimacy from the origin.

This feeling could not be expressed or understood.

Raindrops fell from the window, and after a while they turned to water and began to blur the view.

It was starting to rain outside.

The Sorrowful Demon looked at the window, then turned and looked at the village on the balcony, which had no windows to block its view.

Tongtong had fallen asleep and was about to cultivate.

The Sorrowful Demon's eyes started to shine in the dark night. It rushed into the rain and arrived in front of the house of the first target. This house was made of ordinary brick and tile and contained an old man in his seventies and a nine year old child.

The boy was clever and filial.

But both parents had died, leaving only one grandmother.

The two of them were mutually dependent. The old man in his seventies didn't know how many more days he could keep his grandson company or whether he could get married. However, she was trying her best to not get sick and spend money on him.

The Sorrowful Demon looked at the old man. It was raining harder outside, and the wind was blowing through the half-closed window of the house, as if he felt a chill. The old man opened his eyes and pulled on his blanket, quickly covering his grandson.

Such a broken family, yet they all revealed a hint of warmth. It was the power of kinship.

Seeing that the window was open, Grandma got out of bed, put on a coat, went to the window with her slippers, and firmly closed the window. Then she walked back to the bed.

The Sorrowful Demon stared at the old man, and at that moment, he made his move. The old man fell down, and his head smashed into the ground, after a loud sound, he did not make any other sound.

The boy immediately woke up. He looked at the dark room in confusion. It was raining heavily outside, but when he saw that there was no one under the bed, he immediately sensed something and shouted, Grandma? Grandma, where are you? "

He hurriedly got down from the bed and stepped on the warm liquid and squatted down to touch his grandma's body. The boy was startled and quickly shouted, but there was no response. The room was still terrifyingly quiet. He quickly turned on the light, but it was all too late.

He had stopped breathing.

The boy pushed his grandmother's body a few times, but found no response. He pushed open the door and ran out. He didn't even have time to put on his shoes before he started screaming for help.

Stepping on the rainwater, the boy ran to the neighbor's house next door and crazily knocked on the door, screaming at the top of his lungs.

When the Sorrowful Demon saw this scene, it returned to Tongtong's room satisfied. Seeing that she was still sleeping, it heaved a sigh of relief and closed the curtain, the sound of rain quieting down.

There were many grievances between heaven and earth, but before they gathered together, the Sorrowful Demon would have to absorb them one by one. However, the most extreme sorrow was often the best, which was to absorb them at the most painful times.

Therefore, the Sorrowful Demon was not in a rush to go to the scene. While Tongtong was still sleeping, the Sorrowful Demon decided to go to other places to take a look and absorb the grief between heaven and earth.

So the Sorrowful Demon left the place.

In the blink of an eye, it was almost daybreak.

The crying echoed through the sky. The rain had stopped, and the boy's house was covered in mud. Someone had gone inside to take a look, and someone had stepped on a lot of dirt.

Everyone had a heavy expression, and many of their eyes were red. They couldn't bear to see the boy crying in pain.

What should we do in the future?

Ai, it's Heaven's will.

It's already like this. Heavens, why didn't you open your eyes? Why did you continue torturing this pitiful child!

Everyone kept talking, until finally, a woman couldn't help but cry along with the boy. She knelt beside the bed and sobbed, Aunt, you're so heartless! You haven't even gotten into university yet, and you haven't even enjoyed yourself. And you said you wanted to see which good girl would marry Xiao Qiang! Why did he leave just like that … Heavens …

When Tongtong woke up, she heard a faint sound of weeping. She put on her clothes and got off the bed, then followed the direction of the crying to the balcony.

Looking at the crowd not far away, accompanied by the sound of crying, Tongtong was suspicious, not knowing what had happened.

Just as Tongtong was curious, she suddenly saw the Sorrowful Demon's figure, floating in the air. It looked like it was enjoying itself, which made Tongtong very curious.

Bang! Boom! * Bam!

Xiu-li, wake up quickly. Xiao Qiang's grandma is leaving! Beautiful! Beautiful! Bang, bang, bang …"

Suddenly, a hurried knocking sound came from outside the door. Tongtong jumped in shock, just as she subconsciously retreated, wanting to return to her room. No one knew when, but the people outside the door had moved to a position where they could see the tall building.

When he saw Tongtong on the third floor's balcony, that person was stunned for a moment before shouting loudly, Who are you? Where's Xiu-Li?"

Tongtong stood in place, she did not know who Xiu-li was, she only knew that this was not her home, and her original master had disappeared to who knows where.

Recalling what the Sorrowful Demon had told him, Tongtong replied loudly to the person outside, It seems that she has moved away!

Move away? When did this happen? Where do we move to?"

The person outside had an expression of disbelief, as if he couldn't accept this answer.

I don't know either! Tongtong shouted as she replied her.

Then come and open the door, I'll go in and take a look! When the man spoke again, Tongtong hesitated, and did not dare to open the door.

I wasn't lying when I said I moved away. Why did you come in? I live here now, I don't even know you! Tongtong still felt a little guilty, she really didn't dare to open the door.

If you don't come out, I'll call the police! I'm her cousin, how come I didn't know she moved? Hurry up and open the door!

CHAPTER 105 - NOT ACCEPTABLE TONGTONG

Seeing that the person was knocking on the door again, Tongtong was so scared that she did not know what to do, and stood on the balcony, at a loss of what to do.

The Sorrowful Demon in the distance seemed to have sensed something as it glanced in Tongtong's direction and immediately rushed over.

Tongtong turned around and ran back into the room. She hid under the blanket and did not dare to come out.

What happened?

The Sorrowful Demon transformed into a boy and stood in front of the bed.

Tongtong stuck her head out from under the blanket, looked at the tightly shut door in panic, and said to the Sorrowful Demon, The person outside wanted to come in, but she said that she wouldn't move the people away, and told me to go out and open the door for her. If she wants to come in, what should I do?

It's fine. Don't be afraid, I'll take care of it. Just as it was about to leave, Tongtong suddenly grabbed its hand. The Sorrowful Demon was startled for a moment, then looked back.

Tongtong blushed, looking nervous: Can you tell me where the whole family went? Didn't you say they moved? But the person outside said he doesn't have one.

The Sorrowful Demon looked at Tongtong and hesitated for a moment. Then, it said, I didn't say that they had moved away.

Not moved? Tongtong opened her eyes wide, and instantly became flustered, But didn't you say you arranged for them to live elsewhere? Isn't that the same as moving away?

That was something I didn't want to explain too clearly, so I just said it casually. However, you don't need to know where they went. You just stay here obediently, I'll go and help you deal with the people outside.

The Sorrowful Demon looked at Tongtong's hand and signalled for her to let go. However, Tongtong did not have any reaction, and only continued, Wait, I'll ask you one more question. Don't lie to me, are you going to … Kill them all?

The Sorrowful Demon did not answer.

Isn't it? Why aren't you talking?"

Yes, I did kill them. The Sorrowful Demon sat on the side of the bed, looking at Tongtong, "But they deserve to die, that boy injured you, causing you to bleed a lot, he should have died a long time ago. I was only killing them while I was at it, and I also need to find a place for you to stay.

Tongtong stared at the Sorrowful Demon blankly, Coincidentally? It just so happens that you can kill them, and then we can live here …"

That's right? You shouldn't have any thoughts on your mind. Since I've avenged you and solved your living problem, wouldn't killing two birds with one stone? " The Sorrowful Demon looked at Tongtong, and said each word clearly.

Tongtong suddenly pushed the Sorrowful Demon away! Go away! The person outside seems to have already left. Go take a look and see if she'll come back again.

When the Sorrowful Demon saw this, it did not say a word. She knew that Tongtong was in a bad mood and could not accept it, so it did not cause her any trouble.

Alright, I'll go take a look.

There was an excuse, of course, which was good.

The Sorrowful Demon left and the room became quiet.

Tongtong squatted under the blanket and listened to the crying outside.

She didn't know why those people were crying, but she had a feeling that it had something to do with the Sorrowful Demon. It was because it was just there and if it wasn't related to it, it definitely wouldn't have gone.

Therefore, this was most likely caused by the Sorrowful Demon.

How many people had it killed in the past few days?

I can't calculate it.

This subverted everything Tongtong knew.

She could only wait for the chance, but Tongtong did not want to sit still and wait for her to die. If she wanted to go out, she wanted to see what the Sorrowful Demon was doing, or else she would feel like a thief.

Living in someone else's house, this family still dying because of him, Tongtong blamed herself even more when she thought about it.

The Sorrowful Demon returned after a while. There did not seem to be any movement outside the door, but from afar, sounds of crying could still be heard. Tongtong got out from under the blanket and the Sorrowful Demon pushed the door open and entered.

It's okay, don't be afraid.

What did you do to her? Tongtong looked at the Sorrowful Demon.

The Sorrowful Demon coughed lightly, not really willing to answer this question, but Tongtong kept staring at it, her gaze burning hot, waiting for an answer. The Sorrowful Demon could only open her mouth, Only the dead do not make noise.

Indeed!

Tongtong's expression became excited, she grabbed onto her blanket tightly, her face flushed red as she shouted towards the Sorrowful Demon, Why are you killing people again! Why did you kill again!

You're too bad … Sob, sob …

Tongtong could not control her anger and used her hands to pat the blanket, as though she was about to collapse.

Another person had died because of him!

Wuwuwu, wuwuwu …

What do you want?!

Why don't you just kill me too?

When the Sorrowful Demon saw Tongtong acting as if she had gone mad, and sunk into endless self-blame and pain, the Sorrowful Demon remained silent at the side.

Why aren't you saying anything? Tongtong stared at the Sorrowful Demon and asked it. Her heart was unable to calm down, her chest was moving up and down, and Tongtong was obviously disgusted.

You're not in a good mood, I don't want to anger you. The Sorrowful Demon softly said, her expression slightly downcast.

Tongtong covered her face with the blanket and cried. She really could not accept the Sorrowful Demon killing people again and again.

Killing people is not cutting grass!

I don't want to stay here anymore, it's too uncomfortable! I want to go out and see! I want to get out! Take me with you!

It was too depressing to stay here all this time …

She felt like she was going crazy.

Your wound is not healed yet. You can't run around.

It's not like my leg is injured! Wu wu wu … I just want to go out for a walk. I feel like if I stay here, I'll go crazy. Tongtong looked at Sorrowful Demon with a pleading look, tears welling up on her face.

Take me away from here, will you?

The Sorrowful Demon nodded, Alright.

After saying that, the Sorrowful Demon helped Tongtong put on her jacket and shoes. Then, it turned into a gust of wind and wrapped Tongtong up, before leaving the place and flying towards the sky.

Tongtong opened her eyes in the air and saw the source of the cries she had been hearing. It seemed that there were a lot of people gathered there, and they all looked very sad.

Lifting her head, Tongtong saw the rain falling from the sky, but when it touched the light curtain beside him, it slipped away. Her clothes didn't even touch a drop of water, this time she didn't faint, but instead opened her eyes wide and looked at the houses below.

Where are we going? Tongtong asked the Sorrowful Demon.

Didn't you want to see the mountain? I'll take you up the mountain.

No, take me somewhere else! Tongtong sat on the Sorrowful Demon's body and used her hands to pat the light screen. She discovered that the light screen was like glass and that her hands could not pass through it, forming a protective barrier around it.

Aren't you afraid of being this tall? The Sorrowful Demon asked.

Tongtong saw that the scenery below was getting smaller and smaller, and that she was also getting taller and taller. She was nervous to the point that her entire body was stiff and motionless, but after hearing the Sorrowful Demon's words, she could only say, To play with you, you have to get used to it.

The Sorrowful Demon remained silent and did not speak.

CHAPTER 106 - WATCH TRAINING

Wow, look over there!

Tongtong arrived above the forest and was extremely surprised to see that the forest had naturally taken the shape of a dog.

It looks like a dog!

The Sorrowful Demon answered, Yes.

Wow, and there, look at that bird! That bird is so big! Tongtong pointed to the eagles soaring in the sky, and stood up excitedly, patting the light screen with her hand.

Do you want it? You want me to get it for you.

Tongtong quickly shook her head, I don't want it, I don't want it. It's so good to fly in the air, why should I harm it?

Fine. The Sorrowful Demon could only give up.

Tongtong noticed that the Sorrowful Demon seemed a little unhappy, and immediately asked, When you were first in the sky, were you just as curious as me?

I'm not curious.

Why? Didn't you also not see it before?

I'm not curious about anything. The Sorrowful Demon answered.

That's amazing.

After Tongtong heard this, she did not know what to say anymore, but the reason she came out was not only to relax, her goal was to prevent the Sorrowful Demon from harming others again.

The reason why Chen Shaoyan allowed it to do so was simply because it would only listen to Tongtong's words. It wouldn't conflict with Tongtong getting close to it, and using Tongtong's thoughts, it could purify the Sorrowful Demon's heart and change his mind. Only a child's heart was pure, dealing with Sorrowful Demon couldn't be any better.

If it could not persevere, then it would no longer be powerful, and Chen Shaoyan could take the chance to subdue it.

The Sorrowful Demon brought Tongtong wandering for a day, went to many places, and the heavy rain had already gradually stopped. The Sorrowful Demon brought Tongtong to a valley, where the bird cries never stopped.

After placing Tongtong beside the stream, the Sorrowful Demon turned back into a little boy and appeared in front of Tongtong.

There are so many fish here. Look, that fish is colorful. Wow … Tongtong lied on top of the rock and looked into the water, dumbstruck, extremely excited, she reached out her hand to stir the water surface, the fish swarm immediately ran in fright, and the water surface reflected Tongtong's face.

Do you want it? I'll catch one for you.

Tongtong thought for a while, then shook her head, I think it's better not to.

Why?

They live in the water. If the fish leave the water, they will die. Tongtong turned her head and looked at the Sorrowful Demon seriously, This is what teacher told me, I remember it all.

What does the life or death of others have to do with you? Humans are all fake. In reality, they are extremely cruel. It's just that you don't know about them. Sorrowful Demon frowned as she said.

Why do you always say that humans are bad? Tongtong looked at the Sorrowful Demon with curiosity.

It's not good to begin with.

Tongtong stood on the rock and stared at the Sorrowful Demon that was a bit taller than her. Father told me that you would create a tragedy and destroy everything that's beautiful, so why did you do that?

Because I hate it.

Why do you hate beautiful things?

The Sorrowful Demon looked away from Tongtong, It's because I see tragedy that makes me happy. Humans are evil, they are cruel, jealous, and they are good at disguising themselves.

But I'm not like that!

You are the complete opposite of them, but you can't do this. If you don't kill them, they will kill you. "

What you said is so scary … Tongtong could not help but shrink her neck, But no one wants to kill me.

You haven't offended them yet.

Tongtong expressed her dissatisfaction, Then let me ask you, isn't the aunt who gave me the clothes good? But you still killed her, and that brother.

They hurt you, they deserve to die.

Then... Then can you stop killing people from now on?" Tongtong looked at the Sorrowful Demon in anticipation.

The Sorrowful Demon and Tongtong's eyes met, and they shook their heads, No, I rely on sadness to cultivate. If I don't kill people, I will not receive sorrow, and condensing a cultivation level will not protect you.

When Tongtong heard this, her face was filled with disappointment. But they didn't offend you, so you still have to continue killing …

What do you mean by offended? Due to the fact that I am powerful, they are unable to offend me. When I become weak, the one who will die will not be them.

Tongtong seemed to not understand, she thought for a moment, then said, I think you're a little pessimistic! They can't see you, so what's there to be afraid of if you're a little weaker?

I am a demon condensed from the sadness of humans. I was created by humans. Don't I know what they look like? The Sorrowful Demon seemed to no longer have any patience after being questioned by Tongtong. He said, In short, you must understand one thing, I will not harm you, never.

Why didn't you harm me?

No reason. After saying that, the Sorrowful Demon pulled Tongtong off the stone and walked towards the valley. They stepped onto the uneven ground and headed up the mountain.

Let's go to the mountain. Don't you want to go?

Tongtong followed behind the Sorrowful Demon, step by step, carefully walking, afraid that she would fall down.

After staying in the valley for a while, the Sorrowful Demon helped Tongtong catch a wild rabbit. After playing for a while, Tongtong still was not able to bring the wild rabbit back.

Little Bunnies, I'm leaving.

The Sorrowful Demon took Tongtong and flew into the air. Tongtong waved at the rabbit who was looking up at Tongtong from the ground, then left.

Didn't you say that you normally rely on the sadness of sucking up humans to cultivate? Then when you're training, can I have a look?

That's not something to look at.

I want to see it. Tongtong sat cross-legged on the Sorrowful Demon's body, looking up at the night sky, her tone carrying the tone of a spoiled child.

If you see it, you can't yell.

Un, no way! Tongtong quickly agreed.

I can't cry either.

Fine, I won't cry! Tongtong agreed once again.

After hearing Tongtong's words, the Sorrowful Demon hesitated for a moment, then turned around as if it had a goal. It went to a bright city in the distance, and said to Tongtong while flying, I need to cultivate in a place where there are humans, because sadness is one of human emotions.

Oh, oh! Tongtong nodded.

The Sorrowful Demon brought Tongtong to City Y, lowering the altitude they were flying at, shuttling between the tall buildings of the city.

The place where most of the sadness is gathered is in the hospital. Because it is easier for humans to die there, relatively speaking, it is easier for people to feel grief and pain.

Then, he transformed into a boy and said to Tongtong, Don't move from here. Wait for me in a while, I'll be back after drinking.

Don't abandon me, can you bring me along?

Tongtong pulled at the Sorrowful Demon's arm and asked it.

With your words … The Sorrowful Demon hesitated for a moment, but after seeing Tongtong's pleading eyes, it agreed, Fine then, in order to prevent others from seeing you running around and taking you away, I better hide you.

CHAPTER 107 - OPERATING ROOM PATIENT

Originally, she came here to cultivate, but since Tongtong also wanted to follow along, the Sorrowful Demon was worried about her appearing and running around, hence it was the only way to make her invisible, this way it would be much more at ease.

The only side effect of doing so was that the Sorrowful Demon would only gather grief this time. It was probably similar to the power that was used to hide on Tongtong's body.

They canceled each other out, making it equivalent to not training.

But as long as Tongtong is willing, it doesn't matter.

The Sorrowful Demon blew a breath towards Tongtong, and a ball of light enveloped Tongtong's entire body, enveloping her entire person.

Humans can't see you now.

Really? Tongtong was in disbelief.

Of course, take a look for yourself.

Tongtong lowered her head and looked at her body. She realised that there was no difference compared to before, and just as she was about to continue asking, she suddenly realised that she could no longer see her own body.

He couldn't see his own hands either.

Wah … This is too amazing! "

The Sorrowful Demon laughed, Let's go.

Alright! Tongtong immediately nodded, the Sorrowful Demon turned back into its original form and dragged her to the corridor on the second floor of the hospital.

People were walking about in the corridor, upon seeing someone walk over, Tongtong subconsciously dodged, but was stopped by the Sorrowful Demon, following that, the patient and his family passed through Tongtong, who did not feel a thing.

And Tongtong, either.

Awesome! Tongtong was extremely excited.

As soon as these words came out, it caused a man who had just walked past to be stunned for a moment. Looking at the air behind him, he didn't notice any children, but the cheers of a child just now, where did it come from?

With a strange expression on his face, he scratched his head and left the place.

Seeing his reaction, Tongtong was so scared that she did not dare say anything, covering her mouth as she waited for him to leave.

Can they hear me? Tongtong leaned on the wall and asked the Sorrowful Demon quietly.

Mm, they can't see your body, but they can hear the sound of you walking and talking, but they can't see me because you're human and I'm not. The Sorrowful Demon explained to Tongtong before pulling her forward, passing by all the treatment rooms.

Let's go to the operating room first.

Alright. Tongtong replied softly. Her footsteps became a lot lighter, as she sneakily followed the Sorrowful Demon.

After a while, they arrived at the entrance of the operation room.

Tongtong suddenly remembered something, she grabbed the Sorrowful Demon's arm and asked, My watch, didn't you say it's at the hospital?

It's not this hospital, the one you're taking is another one. This is the big hospital in the city. The Sorrowful Demon explained.

Alright then. Tongtong could only give up.

Although he did not want to pursue the matter about the watch anymore, but since he was already here, he still wanted to try and see if he could find another one.

If there isn't one, there isn't one …

Sigh …

Tongtong sighed inwardly and returned to reality.

The operation room was undergoing surgery, and a few anxious family and friends were standing on both sides of the door. Some were sitting, some were standing, and some had ugly expressions on their faces.

It was a pregnant woman who was hurt.

Ah? Pregnant women? Tongtong was surprised when she heard the Sorrowful Demon, Is she giving birth to a baby now?"

No, she was in a car accident.

Oh, oh … Tongtong quickly nodded.

Come, let's go to the operating room. The Sorrowful Demon held Tongtong's hand, walked past the center of the family members, then passed through the door of the operation room, and directly entered inside.

This woman is out of danger. The Sorrowful Demon muttered as it looked at the doctor and nurse, as if they were relieved of a heavy burden.

Oh, oh, that's good! Tongtong hurriedly whispered.

The Sorrowful Demon did not say anything, and immediately let go of Tongtong's hand. It walked to the front of the table and blew at the woman's stomach.

Immediately, it returned to Tongtong's side, its expression normal, Alright, let's go.

Ah? Have you finished cultivating? " Tongtong hurriedly asked.

Not yet. I'm ready.

Tongtong was confused, she did not understand what the Sorrowful Demon meant, but immediately after, Tongtong heard a scream. She subconsciously turned her head to look, only to see the masked nurse anxiously watching the scene under the light, Big Blood! Quickly, bleed profusely!"

The operating room that was originally relaxed suddenly tensed up. Everyone surrounded the wound again. The wound that had stopped for some reason suddenly cracked open again. It was even bigger than when they first arrived at the hospital. Blood flowed profusely from the wound.

Stop looking, let's go. The Sorrowful Demon grabbed Tongtong's hand and brought her out of the operation room, then came to the door.

The family members didn't know what was going on, but when they heard the scream, they immediately felt that something was wrong. The nurse who just came out to retrieve her things said that nothing was wrong.

The door to the operation room was suddenly opened. As soon as the nurse came out with the stuff, the door at the back was opened. The family members didn't even have time to see what happened inside.

How is it?

What just happened?

Say something!

How is my daughter? Did you get out of danger?

The nurse was blocked by her family in front of the operating room. She rushed out of the encirclement, Don't ask me, I don't know either. I have to go get something, how are you going to stop me? Who's responsible for delaying the operation?

Hearing this, the family members could only give way, but through the nurse's expression, they could faintly feel that something was wrong.

Will there be any problems?

Why do I feel like something isn't right?

Aiyo, my god … Heavens, you have to protect my daughter. When we get back, I'll kowtow every day and burn incense for you. You can't let anything happen to her …

When Tongtong saw this scene, she looked at Sorrowful Demon s thoughtfully. Seeing that Sorrowful Demon's face was expressionless, without the slightest reaction, she asked, That person, why does he seem to be in trouble all of a sudden?

Yes. The Sorrowful Demon nodded.

Did you do it? Tongtong stared at the Sorrowful Demon, and did not deliberately lower her voice anymore. She was basically certain that it was the Sorrowful Demon who did it, but she wanted to hear the Sorrowful Demon admit it.

As the family members were too noisy, they overshadowed Tongtong's voice, so no one was able to hear her words.

You are here to see how I cultivate, so you should only need to watch. Don't ask so many questions, there are some things that are better left unlearned by you. The Sorrowful Demon spoke out.

You'll admit it if you don't answer, won't you?

Yes, I did it. This is the way I train. To create tragedy. To kill. This is me. The Sorrowful Demon did not want to hide the truth from Tongtong, so she answered honestly.

Tongtong quietened down. She was not as excited as before when she heard that the Sorrowful Demon had killed someone who knocked on the door. She asked again, "Then there was someone crying in the village this morning.

Yes.

You did it?

Yes. The Sorrowful Demon answered.

CHAPTER 108 - CALM DOWN FOR A MOMENT

Unexpectedly, Tongtong was very calm this time.

She did not shout, nor did she make a fuss.

Tongtong looked at the Sorrowful Demon and did not say a word.

The nurse who had rushed out to retrieve her things came back carrying a plate with a towel, blood transfusion bag, scalpel and the like. When she walked past the Sorrowful Demon, she fell down without any warning and the items were scattered all over the ground.

She looked flustered as she blurted out, I'm finished, I'm finished. These things are all dirty, I have to take them back …

When the patient's family saw this scene, they hurriedly ran over to help the nurse pick up her things. At the same time, they were venting their anger, How can the people inside wait for you if you delay it!

She knew that if she were to fall, she would not be able to pick it up again. Therefore, she did
