Chapter 375 Believe
In all the time she had known her now, she had never called her by her name, and she didn't know if she could ever call her by the name she had called her when she was a child.
However, the two words "Situ" were too strange, as if they had wiped out all the time they had known each other. But what could they do? There was no way for them to go back to the past.
"You stop!"
Bai Lingshan was just walking forward and didn't pay attention to Situ Xidie's mood at the moment. When she was about to walk in front of her, she forced Situ Xidie to shout to stop.
Looking at Situ Xidie's red eyes, Bai Lingshan truly felt the rejection towards her.
Just like that, time passed by minute by minute, and Bai Lingshan could only stand there, staring at her quietly.
Until countless people passed by her and the lanterns on the eaves of the street went out and lit up again, Situ Xidie's gaze, which had been fixed on her, finally moved away.
"I don't know why I came to see you..." Situ Xidie suddenly said.
She said this with a feeling of despair. Her voice was a little hoarse, and there was some resentment in her eyes, "But there is something that has been lingering in my mind and it makes me very uncomfortable. Brother Haoze said that he saw you... I came here just to figure out this matter..."
Bai Lingshan paused, wanting to say something but chose to shut her mouth.
Situ Xidie said calmly, "That day, I searched your house and found out that you were really her... I was very happy at that time... but also very scared. Happy... because we finally met again... scared because cousin Nie went there for your Book of Featherfall."
At that time, she thought that as long as she could rush to the scene as soon as possible, no one would be in trouble. "But when I rushed there, I saw that the person lying on the ground, already a cold body, was my cousin! Sister Xiaoyin... can you tell me why this happened?"
Situ Xidie's words, which were filled with a sense of despair, and the name "Sister Xiaoyin" that she had always missed, made her thoughts so stiff that she forgot to breathe.
Seeing this, Situ Xidie laughed at herself, then lowered her head and stopped looking at her.
"My cousin is dead, and you are standing here peacefully. Anyone would think the same..."
no……
Bai Lingshan began to object in her heart. She opened her mouth but did not have the courage to refute.
"Let me ask you! Did you kill Nie Zetian and the others?"
Situ Xidie's question made her startled. Although she knew that she would not believe the truth if she told it, she still didn't want any misunderstanding between them.
"No."
Her tone was firm, but her voice was a little low because she lacked confidence. Situ Xidie's eyes shrank and her expression changed after hearing this.
"Fool!"
A hysterical word "idiot" woke her up, and her eyes were full of shock.
"Are you stupid? You won't explain if I don't ask you!"
She hadn't yet reacted to this change, so she was completely confused after hearing these words.
Situ Xi continued to cry, "I know everything! If I hadn't hidden in the corner of the family meeting room and listened to them talking about the cause of my cousin's death, I don't know what they would have done to you!"
The cause of death that made them brain dead in an instant was simply beyond human control. They regarded Bai Lingshan as the murderer only because she was easier to deal with than that person.
"Why do you think I came here? To seek revenge on you?! Situ..."
From the moment she heard Bai Lingshan calling her last name, she knew that she was not believed by her, so she was very sad and even regretted coming here to say goodbye to her.
Yes, she was going back to Modao City, because Nie Zetian's death was related to the Book of Feather Fall, so her family had to ensure her safety. Situ Xidie lowered her head, wiped the tears from her eyes with her hands, and stopped crying: "I admit that I told my family about you on the day my cousin got into trouble, but..."
However, after she thought about it seriously, she ran back and told those people that she wanted to examine the cause of death.
Once the autopsy results come out, Bai Lingshan will be out of danger, but she is too weak. She has no ability to fight back against the scheming countermeasures of her family and the monster hunting team.
Therefore, she could only find Bai Lingshan before leaving, say goodbye to her properly, and ask her to be extra careful in the future.
Situ Xidie took a step forward and sobbed, "How could I not believe you? You are the sister Xiaoyin whom I want to see day and night... I just blame myself for being a child of the Situ family and not being able to intervene to stop them... Besides, I have to go back, and in the future... I may never come to this Tianxiang City again."
At this time, Situ Xidie took out a lavender jade necklace from her pocket. The jade, which was the size of a one-yuan coin, had a purple rope tied to it, and a butterfly with its wings spread was engraved on the front.
She handed the necklace to her and said, "I asked my family to teach me this after I went home that year. Although it is just an ordinary ornament, I carved many of them before choosing this one. I have been wearing it to remind myself that I will give it to you one day in the future so that you will not forget me."
Suddenly, Situ Xidie's hand holding the jade necklace trembled. When Bai Lingshan came to her senses, the jade necklace was already in her hand. The jade was very cold, but the butterfly was very beautiful. Bai Lingshan held it tightly and took it back in front of her.
Situ Xidie took a step back and adjusted her emotions.
"Then... I'm leaving... I've only received one Guiding Spell here, and it was taken away by the demon hunters."
"……Um."
Bai Lingshan didn't know how to face their farewell and could only watch her walk away step by step.
West Village
Bai Lingshan walked in dejectedly. She knew that she didn't need to look up when she went to her exclusive dining chair. However, who would have thought that someone here saw her idea and stood in front of her seat in advance.
I thought such a big obstacle would make her look up, but what happened? She didn’t even notice it after it was put up.
However, it is unlikely that Bai Lingshan will bump into someone else. Generally speaking, this kind of situation is...
"Ah, sorry sorry."
Bai Lingshan pushed the obstacle away and then quickly apologized.
Yu Hongye hesitated to speak and shook his head, saying "I admire you".
"I'm such a big person, can't you really see me?"
This is outrageous.
He really didn't believe that she couldn't see it.
Bai Lingshan looked embarrassed and sat at the table on the other side.
"I'm here on a mission. Seeing how you look like, how about we do it another day?"
Bai Lingshan was startled, "What are you going to do?"
Yu Hongye snorted and sat opposite her.
"What is the mission of the holder of the Book of Featherfall? Have you forgotten?"
Seeing Bai Lingshan come to her senses, Yu Hongye continued, "Eat first, we'll talk later."
