Exorcist's Self-Cultivation

Chapter 405: 403, that devil…

Inside the psychological counseling clinic.

A bundle of paper was stuffed at the hands of the Antique Clock, perfectly jamming them.

And then it eerily began to burn, turning into flying ash.

The hands continued to move.

Du Wei looked down at the crumpled Envelope in his hand, where another piece of paper had appeared.

He had just stuffed that piece of paper into it.

And now, he could feel the Envelope was engulfed in a profound fear.

It was pleading for mercy.

But Du Wei was merciless, “If you ever suggest I kill Matthew, the shadow, the Antique Clock again, I’ll be the first to kill you.”

This time the Envelope was truly terrified.

After the paper emerged, the text on it was intermittent.

[The Envelope… the Envelope’s baseness is insignificant before you.]

Even at this point, it was still capable of such flattery…

Du Wei couldn’t be bothered with the Envelope anymore.

After putting it away, he took out his cell phone.

He was now thinking about Ryan.

Previously in a dream, Ryan had called him.

Although he didn’t know how it was done, the two indeed communicated in the dream.

But now, with Freddy occupying Du Wei’s dreams, he had lost the right to dream.

Du Wei was also unable to contact Ryan again.

Yet that strange phone number was still in his cell phone.

On the phone screen, a string of numbers was displayed.

Looking at this scene, Du Wei spoke with an odd tone, “Last time I tried calling, but after the call connected it seemed to be an Evil Spirit on the other end, and it has not come to my house to this date.”

“I don’t know if this Evil Spirit has anything to do with Ryan.”

…

At this very moment.

In the autopsy room within the dream.

Freddy was enduring the day-to-day harassment and verbal abuse from Ryan’s phone calls.

Even if it felt accustomed to it.

Every time the phone rang, Freddy would still break down.

It simply couldn’t be hung up.

And the phone couldn’t be destroyed.

“I, Freddy, am supposed to be the one who toys with nightmares, so why am I being tormented by two bastards in a dream!!!!”

“I want to die, really, I’ve had enough!”

“Is there any kind Exorcist out there to put me out of my misery?”

Freddy wept bitterly.

The demon’s dream was just too terrifying, outside the autopsy room was the Demon Nun, though going out could mean relief, it was impossible to even leave!

Forget about the door, there wasn’t even a window.

“Devil Du Wei, I pray to you, grant me a quick end!”

Freddy pleaded earnestly.

But responding to him was a cell phone floating in the autopsy room.

The voice coming from the speaker was Ryan’s relentless chatter, “Oh, you’re calling the director a devil again, you’re done for, Freddy. I was just planning to curse you until dawn in the dream, but it seems I won’t be waking up from this dream anytime soon.”

Freddy said in agony, “Ryan Hamel, you can’t treat me like this, you’re my mother’s man, I’m your son, even though I’m not your own flesh and blood, you don’t need to torment me.”

Ryan snorted disdainfully, “What does Ryan Hamel have to do with me, Ryan?”

“Don’t think that just because you call me ‘Daddy,’ you can claim a relationship with me. You have no direct evidence that you are my son,” he said.

“Unless you take a paternity test with me.”

Freddy cried out in despair, “I’ve told you I’m not your biological child, you are my stepfather, and now I’m dead, I don’t even have a body, how can I take a paternity test with you?”

Perhaps it was Ryan’s tormenting that had gone on for too long.

Freddy’s mental state had also begun to get strangely unstable.

It denied Ryan’s point on the grounds that it had no body, so no paternity test could exist.

However, even if it did have a body, there was no blood relation between it and Ryan.

At this time.

Ryan suddenly said on the other end of the phone, “Wait a second… hold on for a moment, I’ve got another call, I’ll come back and curse you out later.”

With that, the call was abruptly hung up.

Freddy’s expression became blank, then turned into ecstasy.

“Hahaha, I can finally have some peace and quiet,” he said.

But no sooner had he finished speaking than he couldn’t help but burst into tears again, “Ryan, please don’t call me anymore, I can’t take it, I’m begging you… I’m kneeling and kowtowing to you.”

…

On the other side, at the psychological counseling clinic.

Du Wei’s expression was somewhat grim.

He had already dialed that unknown phone number.

But just as it connected, it suddenly jumped back to the dialing screen.

As if it had been intercepted.

“What’s going on?”

Du Wei was confused. If it were a normal call being intercepted, it might make sense, but the phone number he was dialing was different from any real-world number.

In theory, it shouldn’t exist.

How could it possibly be intercepted?

However, just then.

The call connected.

Ryan’s excited voice immediately came through, “That’s great, Director, you finally called me. I’ve been calling you in my dreams every day, but some idiot named Freddy stole your phone, and it even calls me ‘Daddy.’ Isn’t that crazy?”

“I, Ryan, am your most outstanding subordinate. My life will be dedicated to medicine. How could I possibly have a girlfriend or children?”

“I think that Freddy wants me to be overjoyed to become a dad, damn it, that’s too much!”

Having not communicated with the Director for several days, Ryan’s words were a bit rambling and incessant.

But Du Wei felt a sense of familiarity, in a sense, Ryan was the most trouble-free among the people he knew.

So.

He said to Ryan, “Don’t worry about that Freddy. It might be mistaking you for Ryan Hamel, but you don’t need to do anything to it, because right now, it’s dreaming for me.”

Ryan made an ‘Oh’ sound and said, “I got it; this is the latest psychiatric treatment plan, right? Damn it, I was almost fooled by Freddy; it’s actually a lunatic.”

Du Wei, somewhat helplessly, said, “You could see it that way. By the way, how have you been doing at the Dusk Bell? Has anyone been bullying you?”

Ryan immediately complained, “Director, I’m having such a hard time at the Dusk Bell. The heartless warden here is a pauper; he didn’t give me a year-end bonus, but I’ve already got a plan. In a few days, I’ll off the warden, and then, Director, you can come over as the warden, and I’ll be up for a promotion and raise.”

At the mention of promotion and raise, Ryan became excited.

His tone grew very emotional.

Meanwhile, Du Wei’s eyelids twitched as he hastily instructed, “Cool down, I already know who that warden is. His name is Matthew, he’s a hunter who’s lived for hundreds of years, you’re no match for him.”

Ryan was startled, “There’s such a thing?!”

Du Wei said sternly, “Stay put at the Dusk Bell and don’t get involved in its affairs. Once I finish up with my things here, I’ll come and bring you back.”

Ryan said just as seriously, “You can count on me, Director!”
