C16 Samet's

The Holy Infant was taken away … Then wouldn't he be unable to burn the incense? If he didn't burn the incense, what would the result be? It was really hard to imagine.

He said on the phone that the police wanted him to go to the station and make a statement. Let's not talk about it, just stay in touch.

Then he hung up.

I immediately called Samit and told him about Steamed Bun's situation.

Samit stayed silent for a while and told me that it would be best to end this matter here, and not interfere any further.

I asked him why? He's my friend's brother.

Samit said, no matter who it is, firstly, in my many years of being a Holy Infant, there has never been a situation like this. Secondly, through your translations, I felt that this brat's words were smooth talking, and I don't know if any of it were true or false, I guessed that he must have done something bad, if not he would have ended up like this, so I advise you to stop with this matter, and you can't do anything about it, the Holy Infant is a god, do you want to go against the strength of the Holy Infant? A man's desires are limitless and he is greedy. While he is enjoying wealth and glory, he is unwilling to give up. He does not know what it means to have something to gain. It would be strange if such a person did not get into trouble.

I keep having the feeling that Samit has some hidden meaning, when I ask him, did you see through it?

Instead of answering, he said, It's getting late, I'm going to bed.

After hanging up the phone, I thought to myself, what Samit said made sense, and I could feel that Steamed Bun was being a little glib. He might not have said anything fake, but at least he did something and chose to hide from me, and only said a part of it.

Since it's like this, then I'll listen to Samit. It's better to avoid trouble and delete Steamed Bun's phone number, which is then set to reject all calls from strangers.

The next morning, after finishing reciting the sutra, my aunt and I washed Second Uncle's body. Just as we were about to wipe his arms, Second Uncle suddenly moved his fingers.

I was ecstatic and hurriedly asked my aunt, my Second Uncle's hand had just moved, did you see that?

Aunt was stunned for a moment and said she didn't see it.

When I looked again, Second Uncle had already returned to normal, there wasn't even a trace of movement.

Did I just hallucinate? I was a little disappointed.

At this time, Samit sent me a message, he said that the shop is a bit busy, if I finish reciting, he would come over to help him, and even left an address.

I asked my aunt, where is this place? Aunty looked and said, "Not far from our house, turn left, walk out of the villa complex and walk for 15 minutes. When you see another villa complex, just follow the numbers on the door."

I replied, but immediately remembered that the first time I met Samit was in an extremely dilapidated slum. It was dirty and smelly, why did it become a villa complex now?

Later on, he was right. His shop was located in the villa area, so he definitely had to look decent. Otherwise, how could he attract customers! After all, he only had to take care of his own residence for a while.

Thus, according to the address on the text message and the direction that my aunt told me, I quickly found Samit's shop.

To be honest, I have known Samit for so long, but this is the first time I have come to his shop, so I can't help but feel a little nervous in my heart.

After finding the number, just as I was about to knock, Samit opened the door and let me in.

His shop was divided into two floors. The first floor had an expensive sofa, a dining table, an extra large desk, and a boss's chair.

I had thought that the people doing this kind of evil business would be like the zombie Taoist Lin Zhengying in the country, with garlic, Eight Trigrams Mirror and the like lying all over the place. I never thought that Samit's office was so modern, and looking at this high class sofa, the customers who came to ask for Holy Infant s help must be rich masters.

I asked Samit, what can I do for you?

He said it was nothing important, so he just wanted you to help him clean up. Recently, he had been too tired. His waist and back were aching, so he didn't have the strength to move anymore.

I said yes, that's not a problem, leave it to me.

Samit said, don't be anxious, since you are already here, don't you want to take a look at the Holy Infant's charm?

I struggled with it for a moment, then decided to look.

Samit said that it was on the second floor.

He led me up the stairs to the second floor.

The layout of the rooms on the second floor of his house was the same as the one on the Second Uncle's House. They all belonged to this kind of "Chinese apartment", with one room after the other.

He led me to the door of the first room, which was closed and with a strange totem painted on it. It looked a little like the cut-paper window in our country, with a few words written beside it in Hindi.

I asked him what it was.

He said that this was a Spirit Suppressing Mirror to prevent the Holy Infant from running out. The words beside meant that all the White Infant in this room were White Infant.

Then he took out his mask and put it on me. He said the room was so stinky that he didn't wear a mask to prick his nose.

When he opened the door, there was a faint smell of formalin in the room, and I thought I could smell it in a mask, let alone remove it.

After entering the house, it was pitch black, and he couldn't even see his own fingers in front of him.

Samit spoke a sentence in Hindi, but I didn't understand it.

Then he turned on the lights in the house.

He had thought that the sudden appearance of the light would be very dazzling, but on the contrary, the light would be very dim. Under the pink light, the brightness would probably only be able to clearly see the other party's face.

Samit said that Holy Infant liked this kind of light. It was not dazzling, and had color and gentleness.

Turning my head, I saw a shrine behind me. There were five bottles, each containing a baby the size of a palm. They were all snow-white, without a single blemish.

Each of the five bottles had a piece of paper stuck to them.

In front of each bottle, there was a small stone tablet filled with words. I think this should be the birth record of the Holy Infant.

Then, I saw Samit clasp his hands together and bow towards the bottle, I followed his example and clasped them together.

After we finished worshiping him, I asked him why were there many different types of Holy Infant. What did this White Infant mean?

Samit said that the White Infant s are infants who have internal defects, such as kidney failure or congenital heart disease. After the baby is finished with the medicine, they would become completely white, and the main effect would be to protect their children's safety. Some parents who have lost their children, would choose to let us become the White Infant if their children died due to this congenital disease.

He said that the note on the bottle was also used to suppress spirits and to identify names. It was like having a Chinese zombie with a symbol on his forehead.

I laugh out loud. Sure, I didn't expect you to study our Chinese zombies.

Samit smiled, and did not say anymore, as he led me to the next room. He said that the Black Infant were placed here, and that it was the kind that would be used for your friends.
