Quick Transmigration: Striving Every Day to Overcome Tribulation
Chapter 111 The Coward Gets Caught! (The End)
Hearing the crying, Ye Fangshu hurriedly turned around, looking at Zhao Xingzhu with reproach in her eyes. She never expected that she had just told Zhao Xingzhu not to scare the child, and such a scene would appear in the blink of an eye.
She rushed forward and quickly rescued Su Su from Zhao Xingzhu's arms.
Su Su, like a frightened little rabbit, clung tightly to Ye Fangshu's clothes, hiding behind her with only half her head showing, the flames flickering.
The pumpkin head stared intently at Zhao Xingzhu, as if looking at a heinous villain. Its brightly colored, somewhat heavy clothing, a vibrant tapestry of colors, combined with its large pumpkin head, somehow gave it a strangely cute appearance.
Zhao Xingzhu couldn't help but burst out laughing when she saw the pumpkin head's appearance.
This laugh was quite something. Su Su, who was already frightened, seemed to be even more terrified. Her small body began to tremble, and she tried to shrink herself into a ball, just like a ghost that had cowered in fear.
Ye Fangshu touched the timid Su Su, trying to comfort her.
However, Jiang Fanye, who was always worried about his mother, did not let this coward get away with it. He rushed forward, grabbed Zhao Xingzhu, and shouted, "It was you, you little devil, who scared my mother and is even giving off a ghostly aura."
His eyes burned with fury, and he longed to teach the coward a lesson.
The coward was dangling in mid-air, held up by Jiang Fanye, its small body looking so helpless.
It frantically covered its pumpkin head tightly with both hands, trying to roll itself into a round ball, as if that would keep the fear at bay.
From its once empty pumpkin mouth came soft whimpering sounds, which echoed in the quiet and somewhat eerie atmosphere. It sounded pitiful, like a bullied child crying out.
Jiang Fanye frowned, his eyebrows almost scrunched up together. He impatiently patted the coward's bottom a few times and said irritably, "Stop crying. Your crying sounds like a ghost's wail. If you keep crying, I'll eat you up..."
Suddenly, an astonishing scene unfolded: the coward's body snapped in two, the half belonging to his feet detaching from his buttocks.
Half of his foot went limp and he fell to the ground, scattering the candy from his pocket all over the floor.
The dull sound made the three of them stare at the things on the ground, scanning the colorful candies, their eyes unconsciously shifting towards Su Su.
"Aaaaaah, waaaaah!"
Upon seeing this, the coward burst into tears, his cries even more piercing than before, echoing throughout the entire space.
Everyone present was shocked by this sudden turn of events, and they looked at each other in disbelief. The place seemed to have instantly transformed into a horrifying murder scene.
Jiang Fanye was also quite frightened by this sudden situation. He subconsciously squeezed the coward tightly, almost crushing the coward's fragile bones.
Ye Fangshu was the first to come to her senses. She quickly reached out and gently patted Jiang Fanye's hand, while Wen Sheng shouted, "Let go of him right away!"
As she spoke, she quickly took the pumpkin head from Jiang Fanye's hand, gently comforting the coward, and said softly, "Okay, don't cry. Let Uncle help you catch it, it'll definitely be okay, I'll help you hit Uncle."
The coward, who had been sobbing in Ye Fangshu's arms, gradually calmed down when it heard Ye Fangshu's words. It turned its head curiously, as if secretly peeking at Jiang Fanye, and the flames of its passion burned even brighter.
Seeing this, Ye Fangshu patted Jiang Fanye's shoulder several more times.
Little Pumpkin Qiqi, who was hiding nearby, saw her owner split in two and heard Su Su crying. She felt sorry for Su Su and thought that Su Su had been wronged.
Completely forgetting that Su Su had to stick to her persona, she hurriedly flew out and crashed into Jiang Fanye.
A pumpkin the size of a palm, accompanied by the words, "Master, let me help you!"
As the captain of the first squad of the Heretic Disposal Bureau, Jiang Fanye was still alert and capable, and caught the little pumpkin in one go.
"Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected surprise!"
Jiang Fanye tossed the little pumpkin up and down, and the little pumpkin made a series of "ouch-ouch" sounds.
The coward, who had been pieced together by Zhao Xingzhu, ran over to snatch it back, wanting to reclaim his little pumpkin.
"That's mine, give it back to me, give it back to me."
Jiang Fanye, who originally wanted to tease the little devil, saw Ye Fangshu's glare and paused. Caught off guard, the little pumpkin was snatched away by the coward.
"Oh dear!" Jiang Fanye pretended to be somewhat regretful.
The coward Su Su was very happy, gave a soft hum, and hid behind Ye Fangshu.
Ghosts rely on the power of others.
The coward pointed at Zhao Xingzhu and Jiang Fanye, his spirits high, and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Trick or treat! Give us candy now!"
The sound seemed to cast a spell on the air, causing it to freeze for a moment.
"Hahaha! This is so much fun, little devil. Are all the ghosts and monsters on Halloween this interesting?" Zhao Xingzhu couldn't help but burst into laughter.
He had just looked at Pumpkin Head and Ye Fangshu's clothes and still had some doubts about Su Su's identity.
But when Su Su shouted the classic line, "Trick or treat," Zhao Xingzhu instantly felt that the taste was right.
It's a Western ghost, specifically a ghost that comes out on Halloween to scare people and trick them into giving you candy.
I've heard that these kinds of ghosts only come out on Halloween. They usually bury themselves in the ground like treasures and never show themselves. But on Halloween, they come out right on time, even more punctual than an alarm clock.
Zhao Xingzhu has been so busy lately that she completely forgot that tonight is Halloween.
Moreover, Halloween is in China
He thought the Western monsters had all been eliminated in the previous exorcisms, but he never expected that there would still be such a coward left.
These kinds of ghosts aren't actually that harmful. If they don't get any candy, they'll pretend to scare people and then leave to find the next person to ask for candy.
However, the faint ghostly aura emanating from them requires those who encounter them to bask in the sun for several days to dispel it.
"Awooo!" The coward looked at Zhao Xingzhu, who had woken him up, and was so angry that his pumpkin head started to smoke. He looked both funny and cute.
"Hahahaha! Even if you're angry, you'll be steaming!" Zhao Xingzhu laughed so hard he almost fell over, his eyes narrowing into slits. While laughing, he frantically rummaged through his pockets, looking like he was searching for some rare treasure. Finally, his fingers touched something small and hard deep in his pocket. He pulled it out and saw it was a piece of candy.
He crouched down and waved the candy in front of the coward. The candy wrapper reflected iridescent colors in the moonlight, making it quite beautiful. "Here you go! If I give it to you, you can't cause any more trouble, okay?" Zhao Xingzhu said softly, his voice tinged with affection.
The timid girl stared wide-eyed at the candy in his hand, her little fingers twitching as if she wanted to take it but hesitated. Her round eyes were full of confusion as she thought: How does the male lead have candy? Did he use some kind of mystical illusion? Is there something strange about this candy?
"Take it! Really. I saved a little girl today, and she gave it to me." Zhao Xingzhu explained calmly, as if she could see through the coward's thoughts.
His lips curled up slightly, revealing a warm smile, trying to lower the coward's guard.
Su Su hesitated for a moment, but finally took the candy in her hand. At this moment, Ye Fangshu hugged her and coaxed her gently.
"After tonight, the ghosts and monsters of Halloween will crawl back into the ground!"
Originally, Jiang Fanye wanted to take the coward away immediately, but seeing how much Ye Fangshu adored the coward, he and Zhao Xingzhu played and chatted with them.
The night was like a piece of black silk, growing deeper and deeper. Ye Fangshu felt a little tired and needed to rest, so she handed Su Su over to the two of them.
And Su Su, somehow ended up in Zhao Xingzhu's arms.
Jiang Fanye originally wanted to hug her, but this petty coward kept shaking her head and refused to be hugged by him.
The flames in her pumpkin head flickered, as if to say: "You rascal, I don't want you to hug me. Humph, I only like handsome young men! Only handsome young men make me adorable, and they even give me candy."
Jiang Fanye smiled helplessly, picked up the little pumpkin Qiqi, and walked side by side with Zhao Xingzhu, who was holding Su Su. The moonlight shone on them, casting long shadows.
"Mission accomplished—"
