Synopsis
[Meng Shiyu x Sui Chi] An old object psychic who travels around various cities VS a young writer with a special physique that attracts ghosts When immortality meets reincarnation Sui Chi once thought he was getting a script with a beautiful, strong and miserable male protagonist. The mother who died young, the father who loved gambling and was homeless, the old house and he was an orphan. Until one ordinary evening, Sui Chi was dragging his tired body home. In the dim corridor, a beautiful woman stopped him. "Little handsome boy, you'd better not go home now." Sui Chi didn't know where he was, so he walked around the woman and stepped onto the dim stairs. The woman didn't stop him anymore. Sui Chi murmured in his mind as he crawled, thinking that the woman just recognized the wrong person. Until I saw that the door that was locked before going out was now wide open, and most of the door locks were removed and pitifully swayed in the wind. Sui Chi's heart:... No... Not true? A strong body pressed against his back, completely blocking all Sui Chi's escape routes. Sui Chi was forced to step through the door and completely formed a three-legged confrontation with the two waves of people in the room. Looking across the empty balcony, Sui Chi changed his mind. Oh no, it's like a four-legged mahjong table. The place where the wind chimes originally hung was now empty, leaving only the people floating in the air outside the window to say hello to him... Ghosts. Regardless of the fact that Sui Chi's home is on the seventh floor, the ghost with only half of his body is not even willing to appear in front of Sui Chi in full. For a moment, Sui Chi only hoped that this was retribution for his insomnia for a week in a row. But no matter how many times I closed my eyes and opened them again, it was the same scene, and the ghost even passed through the window. Sui Chi thought in his heart: This is called breaking into a private house, don't you know? Facts have proven that there is no lower limit for bad people. The nominally former adoptive father owed a lot of gambling debts, and finally thought of going to his ex-wife's house and selling the house with only his ex-wife's name on it. The moment he saw Sui Chi, he even had the idea of selling this cheap son together. His shamelessness has reached a level that even loan sharks can't stand. Sui Chi remained silent, Sui Chi sneered, and Sui Chi drew his sword in his heart. When he was at a loss, there was another noise at the door. The man I had just seen online was said to look exactly like the man from forty years ago. The handsome face with an angry face appeared at the door. Crouching on his shoulder was a hamster that thought he was a cat. Under his eyes were the same dark circles as his own. Probably because he could see ghosts, Sui Chi was not surprised by this. The man helped him deal with the mess and asked him if he wanted to go with him. Only then did Sui Chi realize that the existence of wind chimes could prevent him from seeing ghosts, but it would still take a long time to repair the wind chimes. Although the surprised man denied that he was overly familiar, Sui Chi agreed to become the man's special assistant and accompany him north until the wind chime was repaired. The man introduced himself as Meng Shiyu, and the woman at the top of the stairs was his colleague. The first time he watched Meng Shiyu work, Sui Chi was at a loss as to what to do and was bored. The job of a psychic seemed easy, but Sui Chi later learned that most of the jobs for which Meng Shiyu was required to perform were not easy, and often there was a bitter feeling of being re-employed across industries. The pipa that he often played at night in the ancient house; the evidence of the serious case that was burned to pieces and needed to be restored in the past, and the cost was beyond imagination; the second-hand keyboard that can control the game operation by itself; the traces of the missing brother who reported the case did not exist at all... When he accompanied Meng Shiyu to work for the second time, Sui Chi was worried along with him. As we all know, channeling is a two-way process, and what makes it difficult for everyone is that the souls extended by the memories carried by the items refuse to cooperate. I don't know what came to mind, but suddenly everyone present turned to look at Sui Chi, their eyes brightening. He learned that the person who wanted to lure the ghost out of the cave was his own Sui Chi: Huh? Me? (In disbelief) (innocent wink) ... When working with Meng Shiyu for the Nth time, Sui Chi stepped forward with confidence. "I'll go first, right?" A few minutes later, everyone saw Sui Chi racing against the evil spirit. "Run, run, a big one is coming." Because of his special physique that attracts ghosts, Sui Chi is always in his mind. There are people with ghosts, good and bad, who often like to find the fragile Sui Chi at night when human beings are most vulnerable. Meng Shiyu's colleagues are no exception. In other words, as people who are destined to deal with ghosts in name, they feel that they need Sui Chi more than Meng Shiyu. Fire and theft prevention colleagues, stopped and walked all the way north, stumbled and jumped, and finally arrived at the original destination. Sui Chi witnessed a complete stranger and his unheard-of career. He met many people, heard many stories, and gained many unique creative inspirations. "The memory of old things is thick. The north wind brought me to the earth to meet you again." Only then did Sui Chi realize that Meng Shiyu was only related to him and came only for him. At the end of the story, the repaired wind chimes once again made a crisp sound, and the lives of the two people have completely established an indelible intersection. The night he finally got a good night's sleep, Sui Chi listened to a long, long story before falling asleep. The story about him in every life and the unchanging Meng Shiyu. At the end of the story, Meng Shiyu's voice seems to have spanned a thousand years and is wrapped in a heavy tenderness. "Good night, I wish you and I a good night's sleep." Purpose: Self-salvation, growth, and positive kindness
