Chapter 363 - 365: Reporting to the Police
Unstoppable resentment seethed in Mo An’s heart. He couldn’t believe he’d been played by a mere girl.
He had searched the woods for what felt like an eternity, never imagining she was hiding beneath the coffin the entire time.
A wave of intense fury surged up from within him.
He wanted to chase after her, but Ming Yue was already far away. Besides, with his aversion to light, he wouldn’t get far even if he did give chase.
He could only watch her run away, his face twisted with resentment.
Ming Yue seized the opportunity, racing out as fast as she could.
Her heart was in her throat the entire way. She knew that *that* Mo An had possessed a living person’s body.
She was terrified he would climb out of the grave and come after her.
All she could do was run with all her might in the direction she had come from.
She ran faster and faster, as if she had an endless supply of energy, showing no trace of her usual physical weakness.
Faced with a life-or-death situation, she unleashed her full potential, single-mindedly charging forward.
She didn’t stop until she finally reached a road.
A young man on a motorcycle came speeding down the mountain road.
Seeing him, Ming Yue quickly flagged him down. It wasn’t that she hadn’t thought of calling the police.
She had gotten some of her signal back, but it was intermittent and terribly weak.
So she flagged down the flashy-looking young man speeding toward her on his motorcycle.
Ming Yue stuffed three hundred yuan into his hand.
"Take me to the police station!"
The flashy young man with purple hair glanced at Ming Yue’s filthy appearance. Then he looked back in the direction she had come from, a little surprised.
"Did you just run here from the graveyard?"
"Ah, yes! Please, I’m begging you, take me to the police station right now."
Ming Yue grabbed the young man and, without waiting for an answer, swung her leg over and sat on the motorcycle.
She had always been afraid of riding two-wheeled vehicles like this, but now she was filled with boundless courage.
She urged him again, "If you take me to the police station, I’ll give you another 200 yuan. Please!"
She was so terrified. The fear she had been suppressing was released in the instant she saw another living person.
With her usual caution, she would never have revealed that she was carrying a large sum of money in front of a stranger like him.
Fortunately, the young man didn’t seem to have any ill intentions. He just looked at her with a bit of confusion.
Then he nodded. "Alright, I’ll take you."
Only when she stepped into the brightly lit police station did Ming Yue finally allow herself to relax a little.
Never before had she felt the police were so approachable and reliable.
As soon as she relaxed, the pain in her body made itself known.
Her taut nerves finally gave way. She was so tired she was on the verge of passing out.
She gave the police a rough account of what had happened.
The police were a bit baffled. ’Superstition?’
’This story doesn’t seem very credible, does it?’
’Lured into a grave by her boyfriend, and something about possession... Isn’t this a plot from a TV show?’
Still, they took her statement.
The young man with purple hair who had brought her there walked back over, his curiosity piqued.
When he heard her say the man’s name was Mo An, his expression turned to one of surprise.
"Hey, you know my brother?"
"Your brother?"
Hearing this, Ming Yue scooted away in terror. She wanted nothing more to do with this family.
The police officer gave him a stern look.
"Anyone not involved can leave now."
The young man, getting the hint, pouted and muttered, "I was just gonna say, my brother Mo An has changed a lot lately. Don’t tell me he’s actually possessed by a ghost?"
Ming Yue clutched her phone tightly, not noticing the shock boiling over in the bullet comments.
[So a bunch of people noticed something was off with that guy!]
[Duh. When a family member changes that drastically, someone’s gonna notice.]
[Plus Mo An is so young. Having his body jacked by some old geezer who was already six feet under... of course there’d be huge, obvious differences.]
Ming Yue was trembling all over, still in a state of panic and unease.
She clutched her phone tightly. After she had given a rough statement, the police were also a little surprised, but they were more suspicious of her mental state.
Ming Yue could see the police were skeptical, but she didn’t want to get bogged down in these matters anymore.
She just wanted to go home, as fast as she possibly could.
So she simply said, "I might have some mental health issues. I can just contact my family to come pick me up. But I’m scared of going outside. Is it okay if I wait here at the police station?"
Ming Yue was terrified. She didn’t trust anyone at the moment, feeling that any random person on the street could be Mo An in disguise.
’What if I get taken away? I can’t even imagine the horror of waking up in that coffin again.’ It would be a devastating blow.
The police officer didn’t say much, just pointed to her feet and gestured.
"Go get yourself cleaned up first."
A kind female officer found a pair of shoes for her to put on.
After putting on the shoes, she put her earpiece back in and picked up her phone.
She looked at Su Nian on her phone screen, a sense of relief so profound it felt as if a lifetime had passed washing over her. With a sob in her voice, she said, "Master, thank you! SOB SOB SOB!"
