I remembered the time outside the hospital when he read my fortune, and I gave him a hundred dollars.
It turned out that Little Curly Hair saved my life just to repay that debt.
"Then let me give you some more money. Can you help me with something?"
Little Curly Hair shook his head. "I won't get myself into trouble again, and you shouldn't come looking for me."
I sighed; Little Curly Hair had already walked away.
Watching his back, I chased after him.
"Little Curly Hair, wait for me!"
Little Curly Hair didn't turn around or stop.
"Little Curly Hair, I'm begging you, please help me!"
Little Curly Hair remained silent, so I stepped in front of him.
"You should hurry up and go. It's so hot today; what if you get heatstroke?"
Little Curly Hair pushed his sunglasses up. "You're really strange. Everyone else asks me for fortune-telling, but you're the only one asking me to leave quickly."
"Please help me, or I might really die!"
"I'm sorry, I can't help you."
I lowered my head, feeling a thousand regrets in my heart.
Little Curly Hair walked past me this time, and I didn’t chase after him.
Forget it; it's better to rely on myself than on others. I should go to He Ren Hospital and check things out myself.
After making up my mind, I first went to see my father at the hospital, communicated with the doctor about his condition, and gave a bonus to the nurse before leaving with a sense of relief.
After leaving the hospital, I scanned a shared bicycle and rode towards He Ren Hospital in the west of the city.
When I arrived near He Ren Hospital, I parked the bike and found a lounge chair to lie down on.
He Ren Hospital is a psychiatric hospital, and ordinary people cannot enter.
So I planned to wait here, hoping to find an opportunity to get inside.
As I lay on the chair, drowsiness soon overtook me.
But this time, that chilling feeling disappeared.
I thought it must be the protective talisman at work, which made me feel much more at ease.
In a daze, I actually fell asleep.
I don't know how long it was before a ringtone woke me up.
"Hello, is this Mr. Song?"
"Yes, what’s the matter?"
"I’m the delivery person; someone ordered a cup of milk tea for you."
I frowned; I hadn’t ordered any milk tea recently.
"Are you sure you have the right person? I didn’t order any milk tea."
"You can check your phone; the order is about to arrive."
Sure enough, my phone showed that a milk tea order had been accepted.
"Mr. Song, this cup of milk tea is for you. Do you need me to deliver it now?"
"Wait a moment!"
After hanging up the phone, I quickly opened the food delivery app and searched for the order number.
The order indeed had my address and phone number listed.
Who ordered the milk tea for me?
I thought carefully but found no answer.
That left only one option: to ask the delivery person.
"Hello, I'm still waiting for your reply."
"I'm not home right now. You wait at my doorstep, and I'll give you a thousand yuan if you cancel the other orders and just wait for me to come back."
"Okay, no problem."
The delivery person agreed, and I hurriedly rode my bike home.
This delivery person was likely my only lead to uncovering the mastermind behind this; I couldn't let this opportunity slip away.
I rode as fast as I could, but there was no signal on my phone.
I couldn't send any messages on WeChat either.
I've encountered another live ghost!
