Chapter 427 - The Furious Zhu Shengnan

Panda Novel

Zhu Shengnan raised her head as there was some confusion on her face, this confusion lasted for a while. The same expression also appeared on the faces of the malicious spirit girls around her.

Zhu Shengnan tried raising her hand, but she failed. That sister, she couldn’t sense it anymore. She had completely disappeared, leaving no trace in this world.

“Why?…” Zhu Shengnan muttered to herself. She didn’t understand.

“Why… just… give up?”

Zhu Shengnan looked around at the sisters standing beside her. These sisters couldn’t answer her, she was too young. She couldn’t give them an answer either. The person who wanted to find a solution to the problem seemed to be a way to solve the problem.

But this wasn’t what Zhu Shengnan wanted. Except she didn’t know exactly what she wanted. It was hard to get a child of her age to think about too many complicated things. Zhu Shengnan turned around and began to walk out.

She walked faster and faster, her figure appearing to glide across. Like a flash of light. One moment she was here, the next moment she was 100 meters away. At this moment, she was like a ghost in the night. She seemed to have been affected by her emotions, the spirits of the surrounding malicious ghosts also suddenly became depressed.

However, Zhu Shengnan did not think of it. They also did not seem to think of it. They knew that they did not think of it, but they still thought about it. However, no one raised any objections. They seemed to be too immersed in their thoughts. Zhu Shengnan didn’t seem to notice that… the distance between the malicious spirit girls and her… began to slowly pull apart.

The originally tight team suddenly became loose. The team… wasn’t as easy to lead as it was at the beginning. However, Zhu Shengnan continued to think. Her parents and her grandmother appeared in her mind. Except the more she thought about them, the more clueless she became. The more she thought about it, the more confused and frustrated she became.

Suddenly… she raised her head, she saw that the girl who was the furthest away from her was already dozens of meters away. She didn’t say anything and didn’t think that there was anything wrong with it. She was more willing for everyone to find their parents and stop following her. She did not have any intention of restraining these ghosts from the beginning to the end.

She hoped that they would disperse and scatter into the city. However, they were still very timid and still instinctively attached to her. This made Zhu Shengnan very distressed. Fortunately… this attachment was slowly being diluted, it was only a matter of time before everyone completely dispersed. Zhu Shengnan pointed at a closed breakfast shop in front of them.

“Sister, go ahead but remember… When you’re done, come back”

“We… we’ll all be waiting for you.”

A girl broke away from the line and walked towards the breakfast shop, disappearing into the rolling shutter door. Everyone looked in the direction she disappeared, at the breakfast shop. They were like children with a strong thirst for knowledge, they were waiting for the real answer to appear.

Under the street lamps, rows of girls stood there in a mess. All the street lamps in the vicinity began to flicker… In the breakfast diner business, it was quite profitable if the location and the items were good. However, this business was very torturous.

Usually, they would have to get up at around three o’clock in the morning and go to the store to start preparing. At four or five o’clock, they would have to open for business and work until almost noon. In a real sense, this was hard money.

Although it was still the first half of the night, a man, a woman, and a child had already fallen asleep together in a room on the second floor of the breakfast store. They had to get up and start work in the second half of the night, and this sleep was especially important.

The girl walked up step by step. She phased directly through the door and entered the room. On the mat on the floor, three people slept. Her father, her mother, and her brother. She just stood there, looking at all three of them. Especially her little brother.

“My little brother is… really ugly, with a harelip. Just ugly… really ugly.”

“If I were still alive… If my parents hadn’t aborted me, would I have been much prettier than my little brother?”

“After all, even though my mother’s skin has become rough, I can still see that she was a beautiful woman when she was young.”

The girl squatted down, her eyes were full of resentment. Her face was also full of vengeful anger. Except she did not make a move, she just watched silently.

“Daddy was thin, too thin. Was it very hard to open a breakfast shop every day?”

Her mother’s skin was also very bad. Her mother was not big, but she was so haggard.

“They worked so hard, it must be for their little son, right?”

“All that hard work, was it worth it for them?”

“They… loved their children very much, my little brother… looks happy.”

“Drip… drip… drip… drip…”

Drops of tears fell from the corner of her eyes. After they hit the ground, they made a crisp sound and then disappeared. Treating her younger brother’s harelip should have cost a lot of money, the surgery fee should have been very expensive. Her parents should also be working hard to earn money for this. Except… The girl’s brows furrowed as she thought to herself,

“It wouldn’t cost much if she had given birth to me, even if she didn’t send me to school and let me help out in the shop when I grew up.”

“Hence, why?… Why did you immediately decide to abort me when you found out that I was a girl?”

“Why was little brother so important? So important that you can completely disregard me.”

“Why! Why!”

The girl reached her hand out and grabbed her brother’s neck. A dark green fingermark appeared on the little boy’s neck. Her brother’s breathing began to become difficult. He had not woken up as he could not wake up.

“Why did you despise me in the beginning?”

“Why are you willing to give up everything for your son now?”

“Choosing to have a boy first and not a girl, is it so important?!

“Why?”

“This is why!”

“I want you to love your son, I want you to abandon me… I want the three of you to be happy!”

But from the bottom of her heart, the strength in her hands was slowly weakening even though she was angry. It made her uncontrollably weak. The girl let go of her hands and her brother’s breathing finally returned to normal, as if he had just had a nightmare. The girl knelt on the edge of the mat, beside her was her family.

She was finally back, but there was no place for her in this house. She didn’t even leave any traces in the house. Slowly, the girl laid down on the edge of the mat. She had originally wanted to find an answer. Except now, she suddenly realized what the answer was. It didn’t mean anything.

She turned her head and saw her father sleeping beside her. She then looked at her mother, who was sleeping on the other side of her. She smiled. She lowered her head and looked at her brother, who was sleeping soundly beside her. Her smile became brighter.

“Dad… mom… brother… our family… we sleep together…”

“Little brother… you have to be good… daddy and mommy… like you…”

The girl closed her eyes as her figure slowly began to disappear, it was like a wisp of green smoke. She didn’t know where her soul went, so she simply vanished.

On the road, Zhu Shengnan… who had been looking up at the balcony on the second floor, grabbed her head and squatted down.

“Ahhhhhh!!!”

Zhu Shengnan began to scream, ear-piercing screams echoed in the street in the middle of the night.

“Why!”

“Why!”

“It shouldn’t be like this, it shouldn’t be like this!”

The image of her parents and her grandmother’s tragic death kept appearing in her mind.

“Why didn’t you kill them?”

“Why didn’t you take revenge?”

“Why did you willingly let yourself disappear?”

“Why did you get your freedom so easily?!”

“You… are you stupid?!!”Or… am I stupid?”

Zhu Shengnan looked at her hands in disbelief. There were many strands of her hair that she had just torn off. She stood up, raised her head, and looked at the girls beside her.

“Don’t go one by one…” Zhu Shengnan’s voice was cold.

“Let’s go to the next place together, okay?”

Nearly a hundred girls nodded at the same time. Their eyes, infected by Zhu Shengnan… turned red.

“Let’s go in together!”

“Go… punish them!”

“Okay?!”

The girls continued to nod, like marionettes. In the simple world view of children, she also wanted to have what other children had. Seeing what other children did, she also wanted to do it.

These girls were Zhu Shengnan’s friends. Hence, Zhu Shengnan began to panic when she found that they returned to their homes one by one, but didn’t do anything. Instead, they took the initiative to resolve their obsession.

“Why… Why was it only me who let those uncles kill her parents and grandmother, why didn’t you?”

“Could it be that I’m different from you?

“Impossible, it shouldn’t be!”

“We are the same… We are sisters, aren’t we?”

There was no reasoning, no right, and no wrong. This is the innocence of a child and her worldview. Zhu Shengnan’s face began to twist, she did not allow the next girl to meet her family alone. This time, if any of the girls wanted to go, Zhu Shengnan would go with them!

She would kill the younger brother, parents, and all the relatives and elders of the next sister’s family. She would kill them all!

“We are friends, we should be the same!”

“Kill them!”

Zhu Shengnan clenched her fists and all the girls clenched their fists together, with such intent in killing. It was awe-inspiring…
