TSM Chapter 38

“Hello, this is Good Health Sunny Nursing Home.”

“No…no, how could that be? Our nursing home is very strict with its management.” The voice on the phone trembled slightly, somewhat hesitant…

“Oh? If it’s convenient, I’ll go to the nursing home later to verify the situation.”

Zuǒ Yú’s lips curled into a cold smile. He had found them…

“They’re all…resting in their rooms.”

Zuǒ Yú raised his eyebrows. Resting in their rooms at midday instead of eating? Did they think he was a fool?

Recalling the images from the surveillance footage, and because of the strange woman appearing near the elderly people, he guessed that since the target was the elderly, and their organization had few members, those few isolated elderly people wouldn’t satisfy their appetite. That was when he thought of places like nursing homes.

Images of white robes flashed in his mind. He quickly searched for places nearby where people would wear such clothing. After all, they couldn’t have taken the elderly people from the nursing home too far. The first choice that came to mind, which shockingly appeared on the screen, was the church—Holy Hall Teachings.

In less than two minutes, the door was quickly opened. As expected, the monks who were luring the elderly into joining the church were standing there. Having obtained the answer he wanted, he began to formulate a plan…

He drove straight to Southern Imperial Half Court, downloaded detailed information about Holy Hall Teachings. The Holy Hall Teachings prayed for good health and longevity, children’s good fortune and career success, and a family free from disease and disaster, with family harmony. The conditions for becoming a monk were as follows:

3. Women who have elders, wives, and children in their families, the Holy Hall Teachings give them a complete family.

Zuǒ Yú couldn’t help but sneer. Such an obvious scam, such clumsy methods, did they think anyone would fall for it? Indeed, the desires in people’s hearts cannot be underestimated.

Four monks dressed in white robes slowly opened the door. “Hello, sir, is there anything we can help you with?”

“I… want to become… a monk.”

Yǐn Yuè was speechless. They were quite cautious…

“Hello.” Yǐn Yuè was respectful, his face slightly pale and weak, because he had deliberately applied a lot of white powder to his face and lips before coming, appearing as delicate.

“May I ask why you want to join us?”

“To tell you the truth, I’ve been having a lot of bad luck recently. I feel guilty in my heart, often plagued by nightmares, and exhausted. I’ve even had suicidal thoughts.”

“How did you learn about the Holy Hall Teachings?”

“I live nearby. I’ve visited the temples in this area, but they haven’t had any soothing effect. Then I saw the conditions for becoming a monk on the internet, and I didn’t expect it to be so suitable for me, like a dream paradise tailored for me. So I came directly.”

Yǐn Yuè finally followed him through the gate. The mist swirled, giving a ethereal feeling. The air had a faint earthy smell, forming a sharp contrast with the outside, truly creating a feeling of entering a fairyland.

“Hello, Father Tán. You can call me Yǐn Yuè.”

“Father Tán flatters me.”

The two of them then engaged in some polite conversation before getting to the main topic.

Yǐn Yuè pretended to be very hesitant, stammering for a long time before speaking. “Well… a few days ago, I was invited to participate in an adoption ceremony, but I didn’t expect it to be a scam. There were eight other people who went with me, and they disappeared from the rooms one after another. Afterwards, it was discovered that it was all the organizer’s conspiracy. He wanted to kill us. In the end, it even caused an explosion. Only I and another person survived by chance. Now I dream of that scene every day. It’s really unbearable, it’s too painful, I’d rather have died there with them!”

Yǐn Yuè acted very painfully, holding his head and sobbing, constantly pounding his head with his hands, looking truly dejected.
