Chapter 87: An Unexpected Setting

“David, I’m here.”

Chen Zhao already saw David who was sitting in the lobby of the hospital. David immediately walked to him.

“Chen, you’re finally here.”

“Can you describe to me the situation in detail?”

David told Chen Zhao the entire story. “That’s about all.”

“Since that female spiritualist knows about it, she should have a solution. Moreover… I’m only an amateur and can’t be compared to a professional one.”

“Is it?” David was somewhat hesitant.

After all, he had seen Chen Zhao display his skill of communicating with souls for himself.

On the other hand, although the professional spiritualist Ms. Sienna had worked with the police a few times, nobody had seen her actually do anything. Therefore, David was unsure if Sienna was really that powerful.

“I’ll stay in the hospital tonight,” Chen Zhao said.

Since Chen Zhao had already started helping, he might as well do it until the end.

He was not paid for this, but he could not sleep at home unworried, knowing that a girl’s life was at stake.

“I haven’t told the girl’s father about it. Do you think we should inform him?”

“How do we inform him? Tell him that his daughter is about to be attacked by evil spirits?”

“Err… So do we not do anything?”

“That female spiritualist is already there, no? Clearly, she can’t just go near the girl without talking to her father.”

“Then what do we do now?”

“Sit here and rest.”

“Here? Not the ward?”

“No. I’ll know if evil spirits are here.”

However, David could not sit still. He kept anxiously walking in circles before Chen Zhao.

“David, don’t you have something to do in the station? If you have anything, you can leave first. You can’t help here anyway.”

“It’s okay. Actually I’m on leave.”

“Alright, but can you sit down? You’re disturbing me.”

“Chen, aren’t you nervous? Oh right, you must have experienced such situations many times. Are evil spirits very scary?”

Actually it’s my first time too…

As for evil spirits, Chen Zhao had seen many of them in Blackie’s place.

Having seen so many evil spirits, Chen Zhao was already used to it.

Just then, Chen Zhao’s old acquaintance, Faur, came.

“Mr. Chen, we meet again.” Faur strolled towards the pair. Her white coat could not cover her unique temperament and proud look at all.

Chen Zhao noticed that she had always been looking at him as if she was superior.

Hence, Chen Zhao had always disliked Faur.

“Dr. Faur, how may I help you?”

“You know that pets are not allowed into the hospital.”

“Oh… Are you chasing me out?”

“No. As long as you wish, Chantilly Hospital always welcomes you.”

“I’m honored by your words.”

“Mr. Chen, why are you here? Is there a patient who requires your treatment?”

Although Faur had only encountered Chen Zhao a few times, she could still roughly tell that Chen Zhao was unwilling to expose his medical skills.

Thus, she felt that she should get close to him step by step instead of proposing an unreasonable request hastily.

She should at least become Chen Zhao’s friend first and not let him dislike her.

“I have somnambulism and accidentally sleep-walked to the hospital,” Chen Zhao said.

“…” Faur’s smile was somewhat cold. “Mr. Chen, don’t you think your joke is a little too cold?”

“Is it? Ha…”

Subconsciously, Chen Zhao disliked Faur and was unwilling to interact with her.

“Is he your friend? I remember he’s a police.” Faur glanced at David.

David was energized at once. “Hi, I’m David.”

Faur was very beautiful, and beautiful women could always attract the eyes and admiration of men.

David was a straight man, so he obviously liked beautiful women.

Faur had everything a man would hope for: beauty, intelligence, sexiness, and independence.

“Hi, it’s the second time we’ve met.” Faur had a faint smile on her face, but she still looked distant.

“Can I have your number? We can meet when you’re free.”

“Sorry, I still have work to do. Bye.”

Faur left the pair. Chen Zhao petted David’s shoulder. “Great. It’s a really effective method to chase her away.”

“Ha…”

It was already past one in the morning. Suddenly, Chen Zhao stood up.

David could feel his heart skip a beat. “Are they here?”

“No. That’s all for tonight.”

“Why?”

“She’ll be safe after one.”

Just then, a woman walked out from the elevator in the lobby.

“Huh? David, why are you here?”

“Ms. Sienna, this is the spiritualist I’ve told you about.”

“Him?”

Chen Zhao saw the same arrogant look Faur had in Sienna’s eyes.

“Eastern, are you the amateur spiritualist?”

“Yes.”

“Leave this place. It’s not something you can help with,” Sienna said.

“Err… Okay. Bye.” Chen Zhao walked a few steps away before turning around again. “Oh yeah. Take this.”

David looked at the keys in his hand in puzzlement. “What’s this?”

“It’s for the basement in my house. If you need help, I’m not around, and you can’t contact me, you can hide in my basement.”

“Huh? Basement?”

“I should leave now.” This time, Chen Zhao really left.

“Ms. Sienna, how could you treat Chen like this? He’s here to help.”

“Help?” Sienna sneered. “He has no idea what he’s about to face.”

“I believe in him.”

“Your trust is useless. That Eastern can’t help us.”

“How can you be so certain?”

“He’s a man.”

“So what?”

“In the Middle Ages, churches used to hunt down witches, who were actually women like me. We can communicate with souls and were viewed as evil beings. A minority of men can also communicate with souls, and they’re called wizards, but they’re not nearly as powerful as witches. In thousands of years of development, four classes formed among the witches: Toxicology, Deathspeaking, Spiritology, and Divination. Also, wizards are servants of witches. Do you get it now? Wizards and Witches are different in both their positions and abilities.”

“Wait… Is it really good to have such a setting all of a sudden?”

“Don’t confuse movies with reality. It’s not a magical world. We only have a bit more abilities than normal people. It’s not as complicated as you think.”

“Then is there an evil organization, or a madman wanting to destroy the world?”

Sienna rolled her eyes. “In fact, witches like me don’t only cooperate with the police, but also with the government sometimes. Of course, there isn’t any evil organization, let alone a madman who wants to destroy the world. We also can’t destroy the world.”

“Then what class of witch are you?”

“I’m both a deathspeaker and a spiritualist. Double class. It’s like taking a subject in college. As long as you have time, you can learn other disciplines.”

“Can you protect that girl by yourself?”

“I don’t know. The girl has already awakened. Furthermore, I’ve never seen anyone as talented as her. I’m afraid that she’ll attract countless evil spirits. I’m also unsure how bad the situation will be then.”

“In this case, isn’t it better to have one more helper?”

“You mean one more burden? I suggest you don’t get yourself involved too. Both you and he are of little help to me.”
