There in the living room, the figure of a child appeared.
As moonlight entered through the window, it was vaguely visible that it was a little girl.
Dressed in a plaid shirt with a large pink bow around her neck and a floral skirt, her outfit was quite fashionable.
Sure enough, she was the same little girl Huang Xiaolong and Chu Tingting had encountered while waiting for the elevator.
“Ah !” The little girl looked extremely startled upon seeing Huang Xiaolong and immediately turned to run.
“Little friend, don’t be afraid, brother won’t hurt you. Don’t run,” Huang Xiaolong spoke softly.
In his voice, there was a warmth that seemed like sunlight breaking through dense clouds, triggering an overwhelming sense of trust in the listener.
“Brother ?will… will you really not hurt me? Will you not flay me? Skin flaying truly hurts a lot, it’s killing me…” the little girl muttered timidly but didn’t seem intent on running any longer.
“Don’t worry, brother won’t flay your skin. Moreover, brother will send the person who harmed you… to the underworld, condemn them to endure agonizing torture for 800 years, reincarnate into pigs for 18 cycles of life and get butchered…” Huang Xiaolong spoke in a loud voice. His face adopted an extremely majestic look, as though he commanded everything and everyone, an image strikingly different from his usual self.
After speaking, Huang Xiaolong resumed his usual demeanor.
“Brother, what is the Underworld of Muscle Stripping?” The little girl, seeming to have let her guard down around Huang Xiaolong, slowly approached the couch.
Upon closer examination, her entire face had been flayed, revealing raw, bloody flesh interspersed with an array of green blood vessels. Moreover, the skin on her exposed arm and thigh had been entirely removed.
Despite the horrifying appearance, one couldn’t help but feel overwhelming compassion for her.
Although it was the ghost of the little girl, her current appearance was likely reflective of her state just before her death.
Such a cruel death!
The murderer is a horrid pervert who deserves to be condemned by everyone!
Huang Xiaolong, after calming his rage, patted the space next to him and said with a smile, “Come sit next to brother. The Underworld of Muscle Stripping is a place where the souls of the wicked are tied to iron carts, their muscles pulled out to serve as ropes for dragging the carts. The malicious souls are whipped and constantly crying out in pain… Now, little friend, can you tell me who hurt you? Who flayed your skin?”
Just as Huang Xiaolong finished, the sound of cautious footsteps could be heard from the bedroom.
“Beautiful teacher, are you awake? The little friend has come home. Why don’t you come and see? But don’t turn on the light,” Huang Xiaolong called out with a smile toward the bedroom.
“Oh…” Chu Tingting, wearing a pair of slippers, emerged slowly.
“Beautiful teacher, don’t be afraid, this little friend has basically no intention of harming anyone. Moreover, she’s quite pitiful,” Huang Xiaolong said.
“I know… I heard you talking to her earlier…” Chu Tingting approached the sofa, looking at the seated little girl.
A flash of fear swept over her jet-black eyes, quickly replaced by an angry condemn, “So cruel! The murderer is a pervert for skinning her like this… doesn’t the murderer have their own children?”
No sooner had she finished speaking than tears welled up in Chu Tingting’s eyes.
“Hello big sister, every night when you go to sleep, I come to chat with you. I really like chatting with you,” the little girl responded with a bell-like laugh.
“Um ?Little friend, you… you’ve frightened big sister quite a bit.” Chu Tingting reciprocated with friendly laughter, showing no signs of reproach.
“Little friend, you should stop going to this sister to chat… In addition, brother will have you reincarnated so you can start life anew. How about this… in your next life, brother will have you born into a billionaire family! So that you can become a wealthy, pretty girl? How does that sound?” Huang Xiaolong suddenly had an idea!
Chairman Qiu!
The Chairman Qiu he’d encountered at the Imperial Hotel!
As a real-estate giant of Binhai with billions worth of assets and no offspring!
Huang Xiaolong had also promised to give Chairman Qiu the ability to procreate!
Since this little girl suffered such a tragic end, he might as well have her reborn in Chairman Qiu’s family in her next life!
Having a daughter in his old age, Chairman Qiu would surely cherish her!
And with Chairman Qiu’s immense wealth, she would be born with a golden spoon in her mouth!
Huang Xiaolong had made up his mind.
“Really, Huang, you… can you really have the little friend reincarnated into a good family?” Chu Tingting asked, a skeptical look on her face. Ace in the hole, you’re meddling in reincarnation now?
“Indeed, I can have the little friend reincarnated into a family and grow up to be a rich and aloof, arrogant CEO,” Huang Xiaolong chuckled. “I’ve already found her a good family. Her next life will undoubtedly be very happy. Beautiful teacher, you don’t need to worry about this. I’ll handle it all easily.”
“Um… alright then.” Chu Tingting obviously wasn’t going to believe Huang Xiaolong, just assuming he was comforting the little friend.
“Thank you big brother, you’re so nice…” the little girl started laughing. “Big brother, this sister is also a good person. You two should be together.”
“HAHAHA ” Upon hearing this, Huang Xiaolong burst out laughing.
Chu Tingting, however, blushed and said, “You’re just a little child but you have quite complicated thoughts…”
“Alright, little friend, who killed you? Tell it to brother,” Huang Xiaolong asked again.
“Um… it was a very bad old man… I didn’t know him at all… One day after school, he came to pick me up, he bought me delicious food and drinks… I drank the beverage the bad old man bought me and then I fell asleep. When I woke up, he was skinning me, it hurt so much… it killed me, I told the old man, ‘please, don’t skin me anymore, it hurts so much’ but the old man paid no heed to me… Then, I saw him using my skin to make a doll … then later the sister bought me home…” The little girl narrated the entire chronology of her murder.
Huang Xiaolong could almost certainly assert that the owner of “Zhou’s” was the one who committed this dreadful act.
Moreover, there were definitely more victims than just this girl!
In Huang Xiaolong’s view, the owner of Zhou’s was undoubtedly going to die!
After listening to the little girl’s recount, the kind-hearted Chu Tingting couldn’t help but cry.
“Come, little friend, let brother put you into this first—” Huang Xiaolong took out the soul containment tube, “After some time, brother will help you reincarnate. In your next life, live happily.”
“Okay.” The little girl agreed after some innocent deliberation and then turned to Chu Tingting and said, “Sister, I have to go now. But I will really miss you… How about after I reincarnate and be human again, I come back to see you, and play with you, okay sister?”
“Yes!” Chu Tingting nodded vehemently, “Little friend, if there really is such a day, sister will be your godmother!”
