The First Gospel Chapter 13 Finale
"Although it may sound strange to say this, the young master had a very miserable childhood."
As he spoke, the butler handed Wang Lu an old photo.
In the photo, the sickly boy was standing alone in the courtyard of a villa, his forced smile looking a little creepy.
The boy was not ugly, but he always made Wang Lu feel uncomfortable.
"Mr. Jin was always busy with work in his early years and might not come home more than a few times a month. His wife was always keen on going on vacation, so the young master spent most of his childhood alone. In addition, his congenital loss of taste made him extremely disgusted with food. Mr. Jin invited the best nutritionist in City X to help him grow up healthily."
"You said he had a vehement aversion to food?"
Wang Lu was very surprised.
The young man who was almost as fat as a mountain of flesh that I saw when I entered the room was definitely not the same person that the housekeeper was talking about, right?
It may not even be a species anymore.
"It's hard to believe, right? When the young master first regained his sense of taste, he only ate a little more than the average person. No one took it seriously at the time, but later, we found that the young master's appetite was growing faster and faster. During this period, he seemed unable to stop eating. The doctors we invited in couldn't find any problems, so Mr. Jin thought of asking you for help."
"Are there any other unusual situations?"
"There is one thing I am not sure about. A week ago, a servant said she saw the young master's eyes were bloodshot and he was looking for food in the refrigerator like a devil. She told the lady about this, but she flew into a rage and scolded her and fired her."
"Well, I roughly understand it."
"Master Wang, do you have any ideas?"
"Your young master must be possessed by a starving ghost."
"Starving ghost?"
"Yes. They are the souls of people who died of starvation. They will place their obsession with food on the host. If they are not dealt with quickly, their appetite will only grow stronger until the day when their body can no longer bear it."
Wang Lu spoke eloquently, fully demonstrating his profound knowledge as an exorcist expert.
But in fact, he had no idea what he was talking about.
He was a latecomer and had never encountered similar incidents in the past. However, people must have heard of the description of being possessed by a starving ghost. Wang Lu took this as inspiration and made up a whole set of rhetoric.
This is……
Lv5 level serious nonsense!
The housekeeper's words made Wang Lu more resolute in his original idea - as expected, this matter had touched upon his blind spot in knowledge. He would just dance a little and imitate the ritual and then retreat at the speed of light.
However, the next second, Wang Lu's thoughts were interrupted by a low roar from downstairs.
"No! Wait here, I'll go down and take a look. Don't come over here without permission. If I don't come up within ten minutes, find a way to get down through the window and ask the security guard for help!"
After leaving these words, Wang Lu ran in the direction he came from without looking back.
With Gu Yun sitting downstairs, it shouldn't be that easy...
Wait a moment!
Wang Lu suddenly clenched his fists.
To be honest, he didn't seem to understand Gu Yun. Although he had indeed defeated an evil spirit with his bare hands at the subway station, there might be monsters in this world that were much stronger than that evil spirit...
If it really doesn't work, why not make a strategic retreat first?
Then, he suddenly stopped and stood there in a daze.
Wang Lu had anticipated countless possibilities, but he never thought that Gu Yun would stand side by side with the little fat boy so closely.
"Hey, next up is the finale!"
The little fat boy excitedly looked at the chef who pushed the cart into the villa and let out a low growl like a wild beast.
"This is the top-quality steak that was flown in this morning. I guarantee that this is definitely the best quality beef you have ever eaten!"
"If that's the case, then there's nothing we can do."
Gu Yun crossed his arms over his chest and looked at the neatly arranged steaks on the cart with an appraising look.
"I want to see what's so special about this steak."
"What on earth are you doing here?!"
Wang Lu, unable to bear it any longer, threw a flying kick, but Gu Yun dodged it easily.
When he went downstairs, he was still worried about Gu Yun's safety, afraid that he had been attacked by a monster.
The most infuriating thing was that while he was investigating seriously upstairs, Gu Yun was already about to eat.
"Oh, Master Wang, let's try it together. You can't get such good beef anywhere else."
The fat boy invited enthusiastically.
"I think you guys don't understand the current situation at all."
Wang Lu glanced indifferently at the steak on the cart, walked towards the dining table aggressively, pulled out a chair, and sat down.
"I'll be honest with you... just eat one piece!"
The cart contains ingredients that can only be found in high-end restaurants. There should be nothing wrong with just eating a piece before leaving, right?
"Why is it so noisy?"
The voice came from the stairs.
Gu Yun looked in the direction of the voice and saw a woman in silk pajamas rubbing her eyes.
She went downstairs in a daze, and when she groped her way to the table, she was startled by the two uninvited guests, Gu Yun and Wang Lu.
"Who are you?"
"We are the bounty..."
"We are the fitness coaches hired by Mr. Jin!"
While interrupting, Wang Lu glared at Gu Yun.
It was obvious that this person was Mrs. Jin mentioned by the housekeeper before. She definitely didn't want two exorcism experts to appear in her home.
"Oh? It's you guys. You came pretty fast."
Mrs. Jin yawned and then touched the little fat boy's head.
" Don't worry about your old-fashioned dad. Why bother to keep fit? If you want to eat anything besides steak, just tell mom and I'll buy it for you."
"hot pot."
"Okay, I'll invite the hot pot chef to my house tonight."
After that, she glanced at Gu Yun and Wang Lu, "What are you doing? You want to eat with us? Really, just stay until the afternoon and leave. I will pay you as usual."
"Haha, sorry, Mrs. Jin."
Wang Lu nodded and stood up, pulling the reluctant Gu Yun aside.
Since the hostess of this house has spoken, they can't just sit there and be shameless. Besides, as a fitness coach, it is indeed a bit strange to eat and drink for free in someone else's house.
After a while, the chef finished the preparations.
"Excuse me, how would you like your steak done?"
He asked respectfully .
The fat man didn't answer him immediately. From the moment the chef came in, his eyes were fixed on the steaks on the dining cart as if he was possessed.
He seemed to have heard nothing of the conversation between Mrs. Jin and the other two.
"Give it to me, just give it to me."
After an unknown amount of time, the little fat boy finally spoke.
The chef was also confused by his sudden words. Chinese people generally like their steaks cooked well-done, and not many people even try medium-rare. But if he understood correctly, this person... just ordered a rare steak?
"I said, just give me the steak."
" How can ? Raw meat is unhygienic and will make you sick!"
Mrs. Jin seemed to be frightened by her son as well. She was stunned for a long while before she spoke out to stop him.
"That's good, give it to me now!"
The little fat boy grinned and saliva flowed down the corners of his mouth.
"Don't be so willful. Eating raw steak will upset your stomach..."
Mrs. Jin put her right hand on her son's shoulder angrily, but this time, the little fat boy moved.
He opened his eyes wide, turned his head stiffly, and a few bloodshot lines appeared on the whites of his eyes.
Then, she bit the hand on his shoulder hard.
