Quick Transmigration: Saving The Crazy Villainess 367 Mo Chou 5

Unfortunately, even though the police did move, only a few men directly related to the killing of the two college students got apprehended and jailed. The others could not be arrested due to a lack of evidence, and because the villagers knew how to look honest and nice and arouse the sympathy of the masses, the police force did not make things difficult for them.

So just like that, not even five evildoers had been trialed. The most unacceptable fact for the surviving students was how those men were only sentenced to twenty years in prison and five years of community service. Only twenty freaking years! Even though two lives were lost and one was severely traumatized due to the abuse she went through! How could they accept that?!

No! They wouldn't settle for that. Everyone from that place was a criminal. Those who raised their hunting weapons, those who just stood there watching instead of helping, all of them were guilty and should be judged by the law!

With this in mind, the group did their best to appeal for extension and if possible, a more thorough investigation of everyone in the village.

Every survivor was aggrieved and poured all their energy into the lawsuit.

However, the male lead, who had the biggest backing, suddenly backed out halfway, much to the disappointment of his friends. The reason, a terrible female ghost from the forest followed them to take revenge against Zhao Ai.

Jiang Li paused for a while as he was left speechless by the male lead's action. 'How the hell did dealing with a spirit conflict with the case? His sister was almost ruined. If he's busy, is it that hard to leave the job to the professionals of his family.'

Anyway, Fan Zheng did shift his focus on this vengeful spirit. It was because it tried to kill Zhao Ai numerous times which was unacceptable to him since the female lead had already become an irreplaceable existence in his heart. Distracted and annoyed, Fan Zheng killed the spirit with the help of a senior monk.

That poor female spirit... She was quite spiteful, though undeniably, she was also pitiful. She was just a pitiful one abused, killed, and then disposed of at a cliff by the village head. It was wrong of her to channel her anger to an innocent girl, but what else could she do? Because the culprit was still alive and free so hatred blinded her and corrupted her soul which was not a wonder given what she went through. 

But yeah, the vengeful spirit died, her resentment not solved.

Zhao Ai was saved and the affection between her and Fan Zheng grew. Later, he went back to supporting his friends, providing them money and resources and even pulling up witnesses against the villagers from who-knows-where. Finally, a decision was passed down and all males, regardless of age, as long as they took part in that inhumane custom, were taken away to be imprisoned.

Although the members of the group found it lacking, it was already quite good.

For a while in this ghost romance story, romance took place, with the two lovers showering everyone with dog food.

When university classes resumed, Fan Zheng enrolled the girl in the same school, albeit she would be in senior high school. Fan Zheng was having some problems with his friends and family, but the romance between the leads was on the right track anyway.

There was a rare moment of peace.

Sadly, life was a wheel that constantly turned, and the plot was simply almighty. The latter was uncompromising in preserving its title as the most disgusting script-writer ever.

The real villainess eventually made an appearance to drag everything into chaos. A girl with unmatched beauty and grace born from a very rich family, a transferee to the male lead's department. She was the reincarnation of a female witch killed by the villagers twenty-five years ago. Her name was Gu Mochou.

In the previous life, she was a devoted person searching for a rare flower in the mountains before falling down a cliff and getting found by the villagers. In this life, she was from a powerful family, the heiress of a family with billions as net worth, who couldn't extricate herself from the past.

For the same reason why the female ghost antagonized the female lead, Gu Mochou also started to give troubles to Zhao Ai. She even successfully made Fan Zheng fall for her through a love Gu although the man still woke up months later due to Zhao Ai's relentless efforts. It was worth noting the female lead was truly too tenacious to be able to pester a brainwashed male lead to remember her while surviving the traps and hexes the villainess laid out for her.

So in the end, how did Gu Mochou die with resentment?

Did Fan Zheng, out of uncontrollable anger, summon everyone in Maoshan Mountain for help?

"Weird."

Jiang Li knitted his brow shortly after. The two questions, especially the first, flashed across his mind several times.

Just as he said, it was truly weird. For some reason, he couldn't see what happened next to Gu Mochou after the male lead got rid of the gu implanted in his heart.

The memories suddenly stopped there and no matter how many times Jiang Li replayed them, there was no change in the last image.

He was not even sure if this girl had passed away. But if Gu Mochou did not die of extreme resentment, how the hell did he, Jiang Li, get pulled into this world?

"System, what's going on?" he couldn't help but comment. He was naturally unhappy. And also confused. He subconsciously stood up and floated towards the direction of the village.

"Are you being glitchy again?" he asked again. 

He was feeling alert, ceaselessly bombarding the system with inquiries.

When no answer came, he suddenly had a hunch that something happened to the system. This was the first time he encountered an incomplete plot after all…So what was the difference this time? The reincarnator? Or his ghost soul-client?

No more clues at hand, he could only review the scenes in his head and speculate.

A minute after, he got nothing, and he also had no way of confirming whether the system was playing dead to escape from criticisms, or had gone somewhere.  

'Maybe the original owner of his ghostly body knows something.' Jiang Li eased his expression and closed his eyes.

Playing in his vision now was his soul-client's memories. Unfortunately, after going through everything, while he had enough information about his identity, he found no connection to the missing part of the plot.

He continued to float forward, frowning. It took him some time to decide to give up thinking so hard about it. 'Come what may and think about it again once I determine the real problem.'

Now he only planned to see the devil's den with his own two eyes and confirm something from the spirits outside the village.
