"That's him." After a short silence, Li Hanmin nodded heavily, "I have been dreaming about Mr. Ji frequently in my dreams recently. Every time, he has half a wine bottle stuck in his chest, and his eyes are wide open with blood all over his body. He looked at me as if he was asking me why I didn’t save him.”
"But from your description, it seems that Mr. Ji's death actually has nothing to do with you. Of course, since the conflict between him and Mr. Li has reached the point of being irreconcilable, then even without that night, Mr. Li would have I will find an opportunity to kill Mr. Ji at other times." Su Ran comforted softly.
Li Hanmin sighed, "Well, although I understand this truth, I have never been able to get over this hurdle in my heart. I have always felt that Mr. Ji's death was because he drank with me that night, which put him in danger. .
In addition, during this period of time, I have been dreaming about the tragic scene when Mr. Ji was killed. I feel that Mr. Ji may also blame me for appearing so frequently. "
"Did Mr. Ji just appear in your dream? Did you say anything?" Su Ran asked.
After recalling it for a moment, Li Hanmin shook his head, "I don't think it exists in my mind."
Su Ran nodded, then looked beyond Li Hanmin to the wall behind him.
The translucent soul body they saw in the restaurant that day also followed them to this teahouse. At this time, it was standing by the wall, staring at Li Hanmin.
Su Ran frowned. If Li Hanmin said that he was just a witness, then Ji Zhong shouldn't have been pestering him, and his expression and eyes looked so unfriendly.
"Student Su, did you see something?"
Seeing Su Ran staring at the wall behind him, Li Hanmin felt a chill behind him, as if someone was staring at him. The more he thought about it, the less courage he had to look back, so he had to follow Su Ran first. Let’s explore the bottom.
Su Ran frowned at Ji Zhong. After Ji Zhong glanced at Li Hanmin's back again, he sighed and disappeared.
"No, I just thought of something, so I got distracted. I'm sorry." Su Ran thought for a while but still didn't tell Li Hanmin the truth directly. It wasn't the right time yet.
Hearing Su Ran's answer, Li Hanmin breathed a sigh of relief and looked back cautiously. There was nothing on the wall behind him, not even a single figure could be seen.
It seems that maybe my nerves have been too tense and I am easily suspicious.
"Classmate Su, how do you know... Mr. Ji's soul has been following me." Li Hanmin swallowed nervously. He wanted to know whether the two young people in front of him could really see ghosts. This matter things are crucial.
As if she knew what he was thinking, Su Ran simply shook her head: "I can't see it, but my friend can judge that there are things other than humans nearby by feeling the fluctuations of the surrounding magnetic field."
Li Hanmin nodded, a little disappointed, but continued to ask: "Then the room we are in now, is there any magnetic field fluctuation?"
Su Ran glanced at Zhang Ziqing, who was stunned at the landscape outside the railing, not paying attention to what the two were discussing.
"Not now, but during this period of class, I discovered that as soon as you leave the classroom after class, there will be a spirit following you. As for how long it has been following you, and where it has been, I don't know. .
So I was worried that you might have encountered some trouble, so I called this friend of mine to see if there was anything I could do to help you. "
Seeing that Li Hanmin didn't speak, Su Ran said with sincere eyes: "Professor Li, I really like your class, so I wanted to ask you if you have anything to hide from what you told us in the restaurant that day. , I need to know the truth before I can help you.”
Li Hanmin's expression was a little struggling, as if he was thinking about something, so that the boss lady came in and served tea without even reacting.
After about half an hour, Li Hanmin slumped down in his chair, as if he had made some important decision. His whole body suddenly looked a little older, and he slowly said: "I did hide it from you. Some things, Mr. Ji's death, actually have a lot to do with me."
Su Ran picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of the shop's signature Xinyang Maojian. The moment the tip of her tongue touched the tea, a hint of cold sweetness quickly spread throughout her body through her tongue, refreshing her heart and mind.
"After Mr. Ji issued the bidding announcement to the public, although Jiang University's status in the country has dropped slightly, it is still well-known, and the number of students on campus is also quite large. Whoever can contract the school restaurant of Jiang University will be It's a huge profit.
At that time, many catering companies came here. In addition to participating in the bidding through formal channels, there were also bosses of some catering companies who got in touch with the school leaders through introductions from acquaintances and benefits. They wanted to win over the restaurants. Franchise. The Lexiang I mentioned last time is one of the more prominent ones.
Because the chairman of Lexiang was the cousin-in-law of the then principal, Mr. Ji Zhongji. "
Su Ran was a little surprised, "You didn't say this last time. I thought Lexiang was just trying to bribe Mr. Ji."
Li Hanmin shook his head: "Mr. Ji is not the kind of person who is easily bribed with money. At that time, Mr. Ji was a famous economist in the country and had a high status in the academic world, especially in the business world. More than half of the business tycoons met him. You have to call me "teacher".
But Mr. Ji is a person who attaches great importance to friendship, especially family ties.
Mr. Ji's family situation is quite special. His parents divorced when he was a child, and his mother remarried and lived abroad. His father didn't want to take him with him, so he sent him to his uncle's house in the countryside.
Mr. Ji grew up in his uncle's house since he was a child. His uncle also has a daughter at home, and they are about the same age. In addition, Mr. Ji has a feeling of gratitude to his uncle, so he has a very good relationship with his cousin.
When Mr. Ji was eighteen years old, Mr. Ji ranked first in the province and was admitted to the Department of Finance at Tsinghua University.
But my uncle's family is a farmer in the countryside. Although the tuition fees at Tsinghua University were not very high at that time, it was still a huge sum of money for my uncle's family.
So Mr. Ji's uncle made a decision that Mr. Ji will remember for his whole life. He asked his daughter, who was currently in school, to give up her high school studies and go home to work in the farm. This way, one less child could go to school and one more child could work and earn money in the family. people. "
Su Ran was speechless and sighed sincerely: "Mr. Ji's uncle is really great."
Li Hanmin nodded: "Because of his studies, his cousin who was currently in school dropped out of school. This has always been a thorn in Mr. Ji's heart, so he has always felt guilty towards his cousin and looked for opportunities to compensate her. "
"So at this time, my cousin's husband came to him for help. If he talked about this matter, he would definitely not refuse." Su Ran understood why Ji Zhong chose to enjoy it despite everyone's objections.
