Chapter 2 — Reading Fortune Telling Under the Bridge, I Was Arrested by My Ex-Boyfriend and Taken to the Police Station
The female ghost saw that I didn't pay attention to her, so she turned back to Luc Thoi Xuyen's side, looked at him with bright eyes, flying around while dreamily saying:
“This police uniform is truly a forbidden style, it would be great if I could have children with him... Oh no, his positive energy is so strong, if I were reincarnated as his daughter, I would definitely be rich for the rest of my life!”
When I heard that, I couldn't hold it in any longer and burst out laughing. Truly a ghost with strange thinking.
“What are you laughing at?” Luc Thoi Xuyen's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, "Giang Tri, be serious! This is the police station!"
I tried not to laugh, pointed behind his back, and seriously made up a story:
"Officer Luc, the girl behind you said she wants to reincarnate as your daughter. Are you thinking about getting married first?"
The police officer next to him was stunned, dropping the pen he was holding in his hand. Luc Thoi Xuyen's face immediately turned purple like a pig's liver. He turned around, his back was empty and there was nothing. He thought I was joking and was so angry that blue veins appeared on his forehead:
“Giang Tri!”
Just as he was about to explode, the female demon suddenly stretched out her hand, intending to pierce him. My face changed, almost instinctively, I jumped up from the chair and pulled Luc Thoi Xuyen towards me.
“Don't make trouble!”
I shouted this sentence straight into the space in front of me. Luc Thoi Xuyen was suddenly pulled by me, lost his momentum and rushed into me, the familiar cold smell of him mixed with the smell of cigarettes enveloped me. We both stopped, standing still, stunned. As for the female devil wearing a red dress, she was knocked back by a weak stream of spiritual energy emanating from me, screamed loudly, turned into blue smoke, and snuck out through the door. The interrogation room fell into a dead silence. Luc Thoi Xuyen looked at me, his eyes extremely confused. He slowly stood up straight, distanced himself from me, his voice low and hoarse:
“I…”
At this moment, he suddenly pulled out the gun from his side, aimed straight at the space behind me, and shouted loudly:
“This is my wife, do you dare to enter?!”

I was completely stunned. Can he… see? No, that's not right. If he had seen it, he wouldn't have reacted like that. He just relied on a policeman's intuition to sense that there was something dangerous behind me. Or you could say… you're protecting me. The policeman taking notes next to him, Tran Vu, was also scared to the point of being stunned. He stammered and said:
"Team... Team Luc, what are you doing? There's no one over there..."
Luc Thoi Xuyen didn't pay attention to him, still holding the gun, his black eyes staring at the direction I had just been scared of, as if there really was an invisible enemy standing there. It took a while for him to slowly lower the gun and put it back in its holster. He turned around and looked at me deeply. Those eyes carried exploration, suspicion, and a certain emotion that I couldn't understand.
"Just came here today, you go home first. But the phone must always be on 24/7, it's called being present."
His voice had returned to its usual calmness.
“Huh? You can go home already?” I couldn't believe my ears.
“Go away.” He waved his hand, looking tired.
I felt as if I had received a general amnesty, rushing out of the interrogation room as if there was a ghost chasing me behind me. As soon as I got out into the hallway, I immediately saw the female devil in a red dress cowering close to the wall, trembling. She saw me, like a mouse saw a cat, immediately want to run away.
“Stop!” I shouted softly.
She stood frozen in place, not daring to move. I cornered her in the corner of the stairs, lowered my voice and asked:
"Who are you? What is your relationship with the dead person? Do you know the killer?"
The female devil's name is Luu Le Le, the lover of the dead man - Vuong Cuong. The guy wearing gold-rimmed glasses named Trieu Minh is her college classmate and has secretly loved her for many years. Vuong Cuong is an abuser who not only beat Luu Le Le but also cheated her of all her money. Luu Le Le desperately came to Trieu Minh to cry, but in a moment of anger, Trieu Minh accidentally killed Vuong Cuong.
"I don't want him to kill anyone... I just want to scare him..." Luu Le Le cried as she spoke, her whole body gradually becoming blurry.
“So why did he appear under the bridge?”
"I lied to him that I was waiting there, in fact Trieu Minh invited Vuong Cuong to come. I didn't expect it to turn out like this..."
When I heard this, my head wanted to explode - just like a bloody tragedy.
“So why are you following that sister?”
“I want to tell her the truth, but I can't, and she can't see me.”
“Why did you threaten Luc Th… to scare the police?”
Mentioning Luc Thoi Xuyen, Luu Le Le's ghostly face turned red:
"I didn't scare him, I just... thought he was so handsome..."
I'm too lazy to listen to her nonsense:
"Now the person is dead, the murderer has been caught, you can rest assured and be reincarnated."
Who would have thought Luu Le Le would shake her head:
"No. It's because of me that Trieu Minh killed someone. I can't let him suffer alone! I want to confess!"
I almost burst out laughing because I was angry:
"Sister, you are a ghost, how can you turn yourself in? Go to the police station and declare that you used the intention to kill someone?"
"I don't care! I want to be with him!" She said as she tried to fly towards the interrogation room.
I quickly grabbed her wrist, it was so cold it was numbing.
"If you leave, you'll only cause more trouble. You're a ghost now, the laws of the earthly world can't control you." I sighed, "Listen to me, tell me everything you know, I'll go to the police."
“Will they believe it?”
“Believe it or not is their business, say it or not is mine.” I looked at her, "You just need to tell me: Where is Trieu Minh hiding the murder weapon?"
Luu Le Le hesitated for a moment then nodded:
“Hidden… in the lotus pond in our university complex.”
I had grasped the key information and turned around to look for Luc Thoi Xuyen. Just taking two steps, he bumped into a solid chest. It's Luc Thoi Xuyen. I don't know when he was standing behind me, looking at me with unfathomable eyes.
“Who are you talking to?”
