Hearing Zhang Feng's question, Lin Rui looked up at him and said:

"From my observation, this woman seems to have been dead for a long time, but..."

"Why is her skin and flesh still so soft, and there are no signs of decay, not even rigor mortis? Everything appears so perfect, as if she's still alive."

Indeed.

After all, Lin Rui is a forensic expert!

Of course, she's very familiar with corpses.

Normally, when a person dies and is exposed to air, the body quickly becomes stiff and cold.

Not long after, livor mortis will appear.

Over time, a series of changes such as rigor mortis and decay will occur.

But this body in front of her doesn't have any of that.

Besides being cold, there are no other changes.

This completely defies Lin Rui's scientific understanding.

However, in front of Zhang Feng, what kind of science can you talk about?

So, after stating her point of view, Lin Rui directly asked Zhang Feng:

"Did you do this?"

"Emm...."

Zhang Feng slightly pursed his lips, then said:

"I can only say that... I was involved halfway."

"You were involved halfway?" Hearing this, Lin Rui's curiosity erupted instantly:

"So there are other people involved?"

"Could it be someone like you? Zhang Feng the Great Mage?!"

Damn, Zhang Feng the Great Mage...

What kind of title is that?

Lin Rui, when did you become like Hu Huixin?

"No...."

Zhang Feng spread his hands helplessly at Lin Rui and said:

"The other half involved is her herself."

As he spoke, he pointed to Ma Xiaotong's body lying on the table.

"Her?!"

Lin Rui exaggeratedly looked at the body on the table, then said in shock:

"Could it be? She wasn't your sister before her death, but your junior sister?! You both are great mages?!"

Damn, junior sister...

Damn, you both are great mages...

"Too lazy to explain to you, you wouldn't understand even if I did! Just wait patiently!"

Zhang Feng had to admit, Lin Rui's imagination was not much smaller than Hu Huixin's.

How could Ma Xiaotong possibly be his junior sister? If she were, she definitely wouldn't be dead.

Ma Xiaotong's body can be preserved for a long time, freezing is only one aspect.

The main thing is that Ma Xiaotong, as a ghost, began cultivating.

She turned into a powerful vengeful ghost.

She can use her cultivation to nourish her body with yin energy, preserving it indefinitely.

But after all, she only has yin energy, so under certain conditions, her body still needs to be frozen.

This is also why Zhang Feng said he was involved halfway.

With his help, Ma Xiaotong's body can completely free itself from freezing.

He just needs to occasionally imbue Ma Xiaotong with energy from his body.

But he didn't expect that Ma Xiaotong's need for energy infusion would require him to perform such an operation.

Hiss——

Thinking about it now, Zhang Feng couldn't help but shiver.

Seeing Zhang Feng was too lazy to explain to her, Lin Rui stopped digging for answers.

After all, she knew the secrets Zhang Feng held. If he really explained everything to her, it would still be unclear.

At this moment, she was still examining Ma Xiaotong on the table.

However, the expression on her face had changed, and her tone was the same, as she smacked her lips directly:

"Tsk tsk tsk..."

"What's up with you now?" Zhang Feng looked at Lin Rui strangely.

Lin Rui looked up at Zhang Feng and said softly:

"This girl is really too beautiful, isn't she?"

"Now I think I know why you're carrying this female ghost around."

After saying that, Lin Rui circled around Ma Xiaotong's body on the table.

She came to the back of the table, standing with her back to Ma Xiaotong's body, hands on hips, looking at Zhang Feng, her eyes filled with jealousy, and directly spoke:

"Don't you owe me an explanation?!"

"An explanation?"

Zhang Feng was completely confused, looking at Lin Rui:

"What do you want me to explain?"

Lin Rui bit her lip softly, her eyes showing a hint of grievance:

"I know you, a young man, often can't control yourself...."

Zhang Feng paused, what does it mean I often can't control myself?

What did I do?!

Lin Rui's voice continued:

"But... aren't I a woman? Isn't Hu Huixin a woman? And if worst comes to worst, there's still Shen Xing'Er!!"

"You ignore us three delicate beauties and go for a female ghost?!"

"Zhang Feng, Zhang Feng! You're really playing it big!!"

"What on earth?!"

Listening to Lin Rui's questioning, Zhang Feng's voice cracked!

What do you mean, you three delicate beauties?

What do you mean I go for a female ghost?!

What do you mean I can't control myself?!

Oh my god!

What you just said about not being able to control yourself actually refers to this?!

Zhang Feng was completely stiff, his eyes already reached an extreme level of awkwardness.

What on earth happened to Lin Rui?

He seemed to recall Shen Xing'Er in Rain City before.

Back then, wasn't Shen Xing'Er's first reaction to seeing Ma Xiaotong was that he didn't want to run a red light with her?

Then she went to find a special lady friend?

What's going on?

Even though it's true that he and Ma Xiaotong had some...

But let's not talk about the facts.

Why are all these women wanting me to go find them?

Especially with Lin Rui speaking so bluntly?

What do you mean by playing?

How can you say something so bad about yourself?

He looked at Lin Rui and didn't know what to say for a long time, finally forcing out a stiff sentence:

"Do you even hear what you're saying?"

"Of course I know what I'm saying!" Lin Rui said confidently:

"Do you know what you're doing?!"

Lin Rui seemed to be standing on some moral high ground as she looked at Zhang Feng!

She even stepped forward, jealousy-laden, and said to Zhang Feng:

"Am I not beautiful?"

"Am I not as good as this female corpse?"

"Or do you just like the cold feeling? I could buy some ice cubes!"

Three enormous exclamation points appeared above Zhang Feng's head!

What the hell kind of talk is this?!

You and Ma Xiaotong are a perfect match!

Ma Xiaotong wants to heat water while you're thinking of buying ice cubes?!

Zhang Feng was almost ready to rip the exclamation points from his head, use them as a baseball bat, and slam Lin Rui right on the forehead!

Has this woman lost her mind?

What's wrong with her head?!

"Female ghost..." Lin Rui's voice continued:

"How could you fall for a female ghost? Where does this female ghost...."

But just when the jealousy-laden words arrived, Lin Rui's voice abruptly stopped.

Her face quickly turned rigid.

Because at that moment.

A chilly breeze blew from behind Lin Rui.

And the surrounding temperature instantly dropped to the point where you could see your breath!

"Gulp~"

Lin Rui swallowed hard.

The hands that were confidently placed on her hips now trembled and fell to her sides.

Her face turned a bit pale.

Her neck quivered slightly, unable to turn around, she could only stare wide-eyed at Zhang Feng, her voice tremblingly whispering:

"Is... is she... is she back?"

Before Zhang Feng could answer Lin Rui.

A hollow voice came from behind Lin Rui:

"Sister, are you looking for me?"

"Ah——"

Lin Rui's terrified scream was truly brain-popping!
