夜色老司机极品盛宴

Chapter 86 - Comfort

"You… knew?" Yi Bing was shocked. However, he\'s even more terrified. If Huo Ling knew all along his friends actually don\'t like him and instead hates him to death...

"Mn." Huo Ling nodded as he looked at Ye Ting escorted by the police officers inside the interrogation room.

"How?" Yi Bing quietly asked.

Huo Ling took a deep breath before he spoke. "I bought our drinks and was about to go inside when I heard my name was mentioned." he said. "I was about to laugh, saying that they\'re thinking of me when…" he lowered his head.. "They really do think of me. Just different from what I\'m thinking." He bitterly smiled and looked at Ye Ting. They hate him. They\'re just putting it up with him. How annoying must he has been to them? He thought, his tears threatening to fall from his eyes.

Yi Bing decided not to speak more to not aggravate Huo Ling\'s emotions.

"I\'ll cut right to the chase." Gu Xingfeng said as he looked at Ye Ting. "I already know you all hate Huo Ling, thus you have a motive to kill him." He said.

"What?! I don\'t hate him!" Ye Ting denied as he wildly shook his head.

"For a rich second generation who only play all day, you sure have great grades." Gu Xingfeng said as he looked at Ye Ting\'s report card.

Ye Ting grinned as he laid on his back and crossed his arms. "That\'s what you call a genius – " he shamelessly said.

"A genius in copying the work of others. Yes, indeed you\'re a genius." Gu Xingfeng cut him off as he placed his fingers on his chin and he nodded while looking at Ye Ting\'s report card.

Ye Ting\'s eyes widened and he rose from his seat. "That\'s slander!" he said and pointed at Gu Xingfeng. "You\'re just a mere police officer. Be careful or I\'ll sue you!" he told him.

"For a police officer to be sued, that\'s a shame indeed." Gu Xingfeng placed his hands on his chin.

Ye Ting grinned in triumph as he mockingly looked at Gu Xingfeng. However, Gu Xingfeng crushed his expectations.

"But, there\'s nothing to sue against me, since I am telling the truth." He looked at Ye Ting who gaped at him in shock. "As part of the legal procedure, to conclude an answer, I have the right to have your professors cooperate with us to conduct an examination for you." He told him.

"WHA - !" Ye Ting stared at Gu Xingfeng in horror. The audacity - ! He gritted his teeth in anger.

"So, what will it be?" Gu Xingfeng said as he waved Ye Ting\'s report card. "What do you know about Huo Ling, what\'s your relationship with him, and how much do you know about his death?" he successively asked.

"T-that\'s – " Ye Ting said as his face had gone pale. He looked away.

"Aia~ it seems like I had professor Xie\'s number saved on my phone last time. I wonder if I\'d give him a call - ?" Gu Xingfeng said as he took out his phone.

"NO!" Ye Ting said and tried to reach for Gu Xingfeng\'s phone, which Gu Xingfeng immediately moved away. Professor Xie Ling is the most hated but also most terrifying teacher in their school.

"Young master Ye. This is assault." Gu Xingfeng frowned at him as he moved back from Ye Ting, acting as if he was assaulted.

"No! No! Don\'t sue me!" Ye Ting said as he cowered back on his seat. "I – I know something!" he told him.

Gu Xingfeng pressed back the smile on his lips. "Really? Tell me about it." He said.

Stable World, S City.

Gu Xingfeng moved his head away to avoid the hanging chimes in the doorway when he reached the lobby. Then, he walked inside and saw the solemn atmosphere of the Supernatural Department.

"Chief Gu. Welcome." The woman at the front desk greeted politely and led him inside.

Gu Xingfeng silently nodded and put away his folding umbrella. He suddenly felt better, that heavy feeling on his body had disappeared when he entered the building. This place has a good feng shui. He thought and comfortably sighed.

"We\'re here." The woman said and opened the door for him after she knocked thrice. On the door says it\'s the director\'s office.

"Thank you." Gu Xingfeng nodded at her before he went inside. He was greeted by a spacious room with only a few cabinets on the side and a table in the middle. In front of the table is a chair for the guest. "Young master Hao." He called when he saw Hao Baiyun was sitting on his swivel chair, his back is on him.

"That\'s \'director Hao\' for you." Hao Baiyun said, his voice nasally. "Why did you come?" he asked as he turned to him. "You also caught a cold." He looked at Gu Xingfeng who\'s also wearing a mask like him.

Gu Xingfeng chuckled as he sat on the chair. "It\'s business, of course." He answered. He\'s talking about what happened last night. Both of them met and were investigating something.

"Ah. Right. I forgot – " Hao Baiyun frowned as he held his head that suddenly ached.

Gu Xingfeng\'s expression changed and he rose from his seat. He took Hao Baiyun\'s hand off his forehead and replaced it with his other hand to touch Hao Baiyun\'s forehead that was very warm. "You\'re burning up!" he said and glared at Hao Baiyun who suddenly coughed. "Can\'t you properly take care of yourself?" he said as he walked towards him and pulled him up off his seat.

Hao Baiyun\'s body is originally weak, and so to suddenly stand is currently out of his ability because he currently has a cold. Thus, he almost fell back on his chair. Fortunately, Gu Xingfeng caught him by placing his hand behind him and pulled him towards his body. Feeling the warmth from Gu Xingfeng\'s body, Hao Baiyun comfortably groaned and closed his eyes, his cheek was pressed against Gu Xingfeng\'s chest.

Seeing Hao Baiyun looking sleepy like a white cat in his arms, Gu Xingfeng placed Hao Baiyun\'s head on his chest to make his position comfortable. "Where is Fei Xuli and the others?" he asked when he noticed that the Supernatural Department is empty when he passed by the officers earlier. "That front desk officer doesn\'t know you have a cold?" he added.

"Xuli and the others… I sent them to do some tasks regarding last night…" Hao Baiyun lazily answered as he snuggled against Gu Xingfeng\'s chest like a spoiled cat. "As for your other question… you know better." He told him.

Gu Xingfeng almost forgot. Hao Baiyun isn\'t someone to tell others of his pain. He\'d rather endure it by himself than rely on other people. Then, what about now? He thought as he stared at Hao Baiyun\'s face when he had fallen asleep while standing. "You\'re such a talent." He helplessly smiled as he carried him and walked to the secret door beside the cabinet. He motioned his face for the iris recognition, then watched as the door opened. He came in, carrying the sleeping Hao Baiyun in his arms.

The door silently closed behind them. "Gu Xingfeng…" Hao Baiyun called when Gu Xingfeng gently placed him on the bed.

"Hm?" Gu Xingfeng answered.

"I had a dream." Hao Baiyun said.

"What is it?" Gu Xingfeng asked.

"You made me cry." Hao Baiyun answered, his voice sounds like he was wronged.

Gu Xingfeng almost laughed on the spot had he not held himself back. "I\'ll never make you cry." He told him, his voice soft as he smiled while he stared at Hao Baiyun\'s face who has his eyes closed.

"I know. That\'s why, I\'m glad it is just a dream." Hao Baiyun said. "If it was real…" his voice trailed off as he finally fallen asleep.

Gu Xingfeng raised his hand and gently caressed Hao Baiyun\'s flushed cheeks because of his fever. "I\'d rather endure the pain, than hurt you." He whispered. "Have a sweet dream… Ah Bai." He told him as he left to find a towel and warm water.

Hao Baiyun heard Gu Xingfeng\'s voice, then he smiled. His body relaxed and he had a nice dream after that.

Afterlife Department, director\'s office.

"This can make us detect where they\'ll appear?" Gu Shi said as he looked at the angel Lolita doll.

"Rude! She\'s not \'this\'. She\'s \'she\'!" Sha Jiu frowned at Gu Shi. "Yes. My Anji will tell us where the Soul Eaters will next appear." He said. "It\'s the problem with the space. There\'s a tear in our space, thus they appear. Maybe it\'s because our world had opened to the other worlds." He explained.

"But, aren\'t they already here before?" Gu Shi asked.

"Are you sure they really came from our world?" Sha Jiu asked back.

Gu Shi fell silent. "How many more can you make of this… her?" he corrected.

Sha Jiu\'s eyes sparkled. "More babies… Hai Ba and I will make more of them! Just give us a number." He excitedly said.

Gu Shi\'s expression turned awkward and he looked at Hai Ba behind him. Why do I feel like I\'m a father asking for his daughter to give him grandchildren? He sighed. "I\'ll tell San Di to round up the senior grim reapers, and to pair them with the junior grim reapers." He said.

"Okay!"
