After reading the medical records, Jiang Chen left Number 1 aside for the moment and walked toward Numbers 6 and 5.
The two patients froze, then hurriedly shouted, "We're good people too! We're good people too!"
But then.
Shhk.
The scalpel plunged down mercilessly, sending blood spraying.
A cold smile curled Jiang Chen's lips. "Sorry, your bro Jiang only has so much kindness to spare. I've used up today's share."
Then he brutally killed the two ghosts.
He turned around, his gaze settling on No. 1 as he fell into thought.
Naturally, Jiang Chen hadn't spared him because his story was moving. In fact, people who became ghosts after death had all suffered terribly in life.
That wasn't what Jiang Chen was concerned about.
Through the medical records and No. 1's earlier behavior, which differed from that of the other ghosts in various ways, he had simply confirmed further that this was a ghost with a trace of humanity remaining.
Just like the female water ghost at Zheng Family Manor back then.
Ghosts like this had a very high chance of becoming a Netherworld Messenger's Companion Ghost.
Jiang Chen could still tell the difference between farming Ghost Qi once and being able to farm it every day in the future.
At the same time, after encountering one ghost after another with some humanity remaining, he had now also vaguely noticed something they shared.
"The female water ghost couldn't stop worrying about her companions from the same village. Su Qiao couldn't stop worrying about her older sister. Deep down, No. 1 still thinks about his daughter..."
"In other words, even as the intense suffering formed from obsession, resentment, and unwillingness erodes them, these ghosts still retain a ray of light in their hearts. That becomes their last remaining humanity."
