I released the Holly Wood Tube, and then a shadow knelt on the ground. Unfortunately, since Ayaka couldn't hear what the ghost was saying, I had to mimic the ghost's words syllable by syllable, and then let Ayaka translate.
Despite my pronunciation being off, Ayaka was still able to understand me.
I asked the ghost for the reason behind its presence, and I continued to imitate its speech while Ayaka translated.
Ayaka translated: "I am a subway worker here. When this place was being constructed for the subway station, over two hundred people were killed, but no one cared. We have been buried beneath the mountain ever since..."
In summary, translating everything the ghost said was quite a complex process. Although I didn't fully grasp the significance of it all, seeing Ayaka and Osaka's expressions made it clear that this was a serious matter.
Finally, after clarifying the basic details, I understood the beginning and end of the situation. It turned out that Suigetsuyama was intended to be a subway station connecting Tokyo to Bairan Mountain. If it were a straight line, it could pass through Suigetsuyama.
The construction company for this segment was the well-known Fuhai Engineering Company in Japan. This company had government backing, and securing this project meant they would earn a substantial profit.
While surveying the area around Suigetsuyama, Fuhai Engineering suddenly discovered a natural cave beneath it. This discovery thrilled the boss of Fuhai Engineering because having a natural cave meant they could save millions of yen on excavation costs.
At that time, Fuhai decided to use this large cave as a platform and excavate on both sides, creating a scenic effect. However, engineers warned that the cave's structure was unstable and needed reinforcement. But the excitement over this discovery overshadowed any concerns about engineering advice. Without waiting for approval, they secretly hired a group of workers from outside and began constructing the Suigetsuyama platform beneath the cave.
Then, disaster struck—the cave collapsed, burying over two hundred people underneath. The boss of Fuhai Engineering was terrified; not only would he have to pay significant compensation, but this incident could also lead to political turmoil. So he used his influence to suppress the matter.
As a result, the subway line no longer passed directly through Suigetsuyama but instead took a detour around it, extending towards Bairan Mountain via another route.
The bodies of over two hundred people remained buried below, with no one caring until their resentment erupted and they became vengeful spirits, leading to several fatalities.
As for this particular ghost, when the collapse occurred, he had been slacking off and sleeping. When he woke up, he found himself as a spirit. Due to insufficient resentment, he did not become a vengeful spirit but merely a ghost who was manipulated by those vengeful spirits.
Although the situation wasn't overly complicated, my inability to understand Japanese and being the only one who could hear the ghost's words made the entire translation process quite lengthy. It wasn't until dawn began to break that we finally clarified everything!
Osaka's expression was grim as he spoke with Yoshikura Mibu. Previously, he had always looked down on her, but now it was clear that he needed something from her.
Ayaka stood beside me, stretching her arms toward the rising sun and embracing it. "It feels so wonderful to see the sun for the first time," she said.
I watched Ayaka as she stretched, finding her quite attractive, and I playfully gave her a light slap on the backside.
Ayaka jumped in surprise and shot me a glare before bursting into laughter. "Song Fei, do you realize what you've gotten yourself into?"
"Huh?" I looked at Ayaka in confusion. "It's not that serious, is it? I just slapped your butt; I'm not going to get executed for that."
"You pervert!" Ayaka rolled her eyes at me. "That's not what I meant! I'm talking about what happened earlier at Shuiyue Mountain Subway Station. Do you know who got involved?"
I shook my head at Ayaka's words. "What does that have to do with me? Even if it involves Prime Minister Abe, it's not my business."
Ayaka pouted and laughed again, nodding. "You actually guessed right. Do you know why Fuhai Engineering Company has been so bold in covering this up? It's because the company's boss is backed by the Minister of Finance. Our Minister of Finance and Abe are really close; their wives are twin sisters! Rumor has it they often end up in bed together only to realize they've swapped wives."
"..." I stared at Ayaka, speechless. "Are you really going to be this crude? Are you trying to convey something to me?"
"Not at all! I'm just stating facts! Anyway, this situation has blown up. Just think about it—Osaka is currently discussing with Yoshikura Mibu how to expose today's events and give justice to those two hundred workers while ensuring Fuhai Engineering Company faces consequences," Ayaka explained.
I couldn't be bothered with all that; what mattered more to me was that I had completed this case. As we had previously agreed, Osaka was supposed to hand over Yang Nianguo to me.
Osaka kept his word and handed Yang Nianguo over to us, facilitating the paperwork for several officers so they could take Yang Nianguo back to China for trial.
With Gao Zhi's help, we managed to track down the sorcerer who created the Sunny Doll and successfully dealt with the ghostly entity.
After eliminating the ghostly presence, Gao Zhi took us around Japan for a couple of days, and of course, Ayaka accompanied us. Taking advantage of this opportunity, I also had a good chance to connect with Ayaka.
Regarding the Tokyo Subway case, Osaka and Yoshikura Mibu uploaded a video online, causing quite a stir, but it was quickly suppressed by the Japanese authorities. Osaka lost his job, and Yoshikura Mibu had her press credentials revoked; however, neither of them seemed to regret their actions at all.
After returning to China from Japan, I soon dozed off on the plane. There had been too many events during my trip to Japan, and I had inadvertently become involved in some high-level political struggles.
Anyway, I estimated that Japan was about to hold a major election soon, and Abe would definitely be stepping down. Of course, I couldn't let this concern me.
Once back in the country, I took the High-Speed Rail straight back to Donghai City. Only Lin Fan had returned home to recuperate.
When I arrived at the café, Chi Xiang was sitting at the counter, chatting with Zhang Yuru about nothing in particular.
I immediately understood that he was trying to flirt with Zhang Yuru, but honestly, I didn’t think he stood a chance.
“Hey! You two, did you do anything bad while I was gone?” I joked.
“What the hell! Fei Ge, you’re back!” Chi Xiang jumped up and lunged toward me.
I dodged his embrace and walked over to hug Zhang Yuru instead.
Zhang Yuru couldn’t stop smiling while Chi Xiang muttered curses at me for being a jerk.
After some playful banter, I briefly recounted my trip to Japan.
Chi Xiang patted my shoulder and said, “Fei Ge, you must be exhausted from your trip to Japan. And you definitely went looking for some actresses along the way, right?”
I chuckled, “None of your business.”
Chi Xiang pouted and then said, “Tonight I’ll treat you to something good. You have to tell me all about it, okay?” His eyes sparkled with eager anticipation.
I said, "Tonight, I can't. I have to go find Liu Yiyi for a nice meal."
"You're such a jerk!" Chi Xiang and Zhang Yuru chimed in simultaneously.
I waved my hand dismissively and took a moment to rest on the sofa. Although I was happy to be back, there was a lingering heaviness in my heart because I knew that it wouldn't be long before I had to leave this place. Whether I could return was uncertain.
Tonight, I would have to tell Liu Yiyi about this.
My relationship, which hadn't even begun yet, was already destined to end. How frustrating.
In the evening, I called Liu Yiyi to invite her out for dinner. She readily agreed and asked me to pick her up from her dorm.
I drove over and waited at the dormitory building of Liu Yiyi's company.
Before long, Liu Yiyi appeared, dressed in a t-shirt and extremely short denim shorts, wearing flip-flops as she got into the car.
Seeing her outfit made me want to laugh and cry at the same time. "Liu Zong, are you trying to go back to your student girl style?"
Liu Yiyi chuckled and placed her bag in front of her. "I thought I'd dress down so you wouldn't feel pressured. This way, it matches your status."
"Hey! Are you looking down on me? I'm part of the car-owning crowd now!" I exclaimed while patting the car.
We both laughed.
I had initially planned to take Liu Yiyi to a fancy restaurant for a luxurious meal, but seeing her outfit made me reconsider. Instead, I took her to a restaurant called Listening Rain Pavilion, not far from the school. It wasn't upscale, but the environment was nice. The food wasn't particularly great, but the romantic atmosphere made it a favorite spot for young couples.
We got out of the car and headed into the restaurant.
I smiled, looking at Liu Yiyi, whose smile was as radiant as a flower, but inside, my heart was becoming increasingly painful.
"Song Fei, what's wrong? You seem a bit strange tonight," Liu Yiyi said, gazing at me.
I swallowed hard. I decided I should tell Liu Yiyi as soon as possible. "Yiyi, I... I need to tell you something."
"What is it?" Liu Yiyi asked, her beautiful big eyes scanning me.
I bit my lip, about to speak when suddenly the lights in the restaurant flickered a few times. Then, a chilling aura rushed in and surrounded us.
I froze for a moment before running over to Liu Yiyi and hugging her tightly.
"What are you doing, Song Fei? It's just an unstable power supply; why are you so nervous?" Liu Yiyi laughed.
Just as I was about to respond, there was a loud bang from afar as the glass door exploded open, and several people walked in.
