Start with a ghost full of skills

Xiao Chen didn't feel much when walking up the stairs, but when they arrived at the door of the safe passage on the 28th floor, Xiao Chen suddenly felt a gust of coldness rushing towards him.

This cold air is divided into two parts, one part is natural cold air, that is to say, this layer has a sense of darkness without sunlight, accompanied by the cold wind mixed with the smell of old documents, which makes them very uncomfortable. Comfortable.

The second part is the most critical. This cold breath feels more like the "cold air" that Xiao Chen has seen several times before. For example, when the Ghost House was besieged by men in black, they once Trying to break in with these cold breaths.

Xiao Chen immediately became alert, and asked Sister Hong, "Is there a bodyguard for Mr. Wang in this place?"

"Probably not." Sister Hong shook her head and said, "Boss Wang doesn't work here. In fact, he rarely comes here throughout the year."

"Really? Then where is he usually?" Xiao Chen asked.

"No one knows." Sister Hong continued to shake her head: "I used to know his whereabouts quite well, but now I can't grasp it."

"So he might still be there, right?" Xiao Chen said with a frown.

"This possibility cannot be ruled out." Sister Hong said, "But the possibility is very small."

At this time, Lu Xiaoxi suddenly said "Oh", then pointed to the door and said, "Why is there a sign here?"

It was only then that Xiao Chen noticed that there was indeed a weird wooden sign in the central area of ​​the entrance gate of the safe passage, that is, between the two cracks.

Xiao Chen frowned and looked carefully at the sign, and immediately understood where the chill just now came from!
It's from this brand!

Following Xiao Chen's gaze, a faint coldness gradually appeared on the sign.

Whether it is size or shape, this brand is exactly the same as the puzzle mechanism that he and Chen Meng saw in the pharmaceutical company's level 4 area before!

"Can you see the streamer on this sign?" Xiao Chen asked immediately.

"What streamer?" Sister Hong and Lu Xiaoxi asked at the same time.

That means you can't see it... Xiao Chen hastily warned the two of them not to touch this door.

It seems that there is also a mechanism here, which means that the 28th floor is definitely not as simple as just an archive room.

Xiao Chen first approached the door, looked in through the upper glass, and found that it was pitch black inside, but Xiao Chen now has a certain night vision ability, so he can still see some obvious muddy footprints on the ground.

Normally, this headquarters building is often cleaned by cleaning staff. It is very abnormal for such muddy footprints to appear here, and Xiao Chen found that these footprints seemed to have dried up.

"Call Chen Meng quickly!" Xiao Chen ordered Lu Xiaoxi.

Although Lu Xiaoxi was puzzled, he didn't dare to ask more questions, and quickly dialed the number Xiao Chen gave.

That's right, Xiao Chen knew that there would be puzzles on this sign soon.

Sure enough, the moment the phone was connected, the first puzzle appeared on the sign: no cheating in the exam.

Chen Meng gave the answer almost instantly: true score.

Next, just like last time, several math puzzles appeared on the sign one after another. After being solved by Chen Meng one by one, the streamer on the sign disappeared.

It should be mentioned here that Sister Hong and Lu Xiaoxi, who are living beings, not only cannot see the streamer on the sign, but also cannot see the puzzle displayed on the sign.

Xiao Chen felt a little strange. He didn't understand why these puzzles were all related to mathematics. Could it be the same as the situation in pharmaceutical companies?There's a ghost teacher who teaches arithmetic, so there's one here too?Or... is this the same ghost?

After Xiao Chen waited for the streamer on the sign to disappear completely, he tried to push the door.

The door was not locked, it opened directly, and at the same time, it was time for Xiao Chen's appearance.

He shook the wind chime quickly to show his existence, and then he heard Sister Hong say, "Why is this place so strange...it's different from my previous memory."

Before the words fell, Xiao Chen felt a little hot on his body.

He thought it was his singing crystal doll that had a fever, and was wondering why there were Qianqian's energy memories here, when he heard Lu Xiaoxi say in surprise, "Hey? Boss? Why are you out again?"

Xiao Chen was stunned, and hurriedly lowered his head to look at himself, and sure enough, he found that his body appeared again at some point!No sign of translucency whatsoever.

Sister Hong also stared at Xiao Chen and said, "We can all see you now, why don't you try to say something?"

Xiao Chen immediately coughed.

Sister Hong nodded: "There should be some kind of device here that can make ghosts appear."

Xiao Chen was taken aback, and hurriedly scanned around, and soon found the problem.

At first glance, there is nothing on the walls here, but after careful observation, it can be found that all the walls are covered with the kind of reflective panels that Xiao Chen saw in the pharmaceutical company before.

Of course, there is no light to reflect here, but there are bursts of cold air flowing on the surface of these reflectors.

Since the light was too dim, Sister Hong and Lu Xiaoxi naturally couldn't see anything, Xiao Chen told them to stay where they were, and then tentatively continued to move forward for a certain distance.

This floor is divided into countless areas by corridors and partitions. Judging from the layout, it does look like an archive room, and Xiao Chen found that there are indeed quite a few file cabinets in the doors of many rooms. I can see some files.

Xiao Chen walked for a while in this way, not to find anything, but just to see if he would trigger some kind of alarm because of the reflector when he was acting here.

But no, it seems that these reflectors can only make Xiao Chen visible, as long as no one else around sees it, then he doesn't have to worry about being exposed.

In addition, the reflective panels of the pharmaceutical company did not seem to be in operation at that time. After all, those panels did not have these energy streamers, so Xiao Chen was not revealed when he was in the pharmaceutical company.

This saves trouble, after all, he already hoped that he could maintain communication with Sister Hong, which happened to suit Xiao Chen's wishes.

Soon Xiao Chen returned to Sister Hong and Lu Xiaoxi, only to find that they both had a flashlight in their hands, and it was the kind of flashlight that could cause harm to ghosts, including himself.

"Be careful." Xiao Chen warned Lu Xiaoxi, "This is a special flashlight. The light from this thing is harmful to me. Don't shine on me."

"Understood, boss!" Lu Xiaoxi nodded immediately.

"You really came prepared." Then Xiao Chen looked at Sister Hong and said, "Did Yue Ling give you these?"

"I took it from her room." Sister Hong smiled, "She won't mind."

Xiao Chenxin said that it was hard to say that Yue Lingjie didn't mind, but he did, because it was clear that Sister Hong had tricked Xiao Chen here.

"Since you asked me for help, why didn't you tell me the truth in advance?" Xiao Chen said suspiciously, "Don't you trust me?"

Miss Hong tilted her head: "In all fairness, if you were in my position, would you easily believe in a ghost that you have never seen before?"

Xiao Chen frowned: "Of course I won't, but since you don't trust me, why ask me for help?"

"Because I have no other choice." Hong Jie said.

"Then can you trust me now?" Xiao Chen said, "What's going on with your lover?"

Sister Hong bit her lip, then said softly, "I suspect...he might be dead."

This answer not only surprised Xiao Chen, but Lu Xiaoxi who was next to him almost howled.

Xiao Chen hurriedly gagged Lu Xiaoxi before he could speak, and then Lu Xiaoxi faltered and said: "So he is also a ghost?"

"It's not sure yet." Sister Hong said with a frown.

"Then who were you contacting just now?" Xiao Chen continued to ask.

"It's a friend of mine here." Sister Hong said, "But she can't determine the exact location now, we can only find it on this floor by ourselves."

No wonder Miss Hong's explanation of the phone call was so far-fetched... It turned out to be nonsense.

At this time, Xiao Chen looked at his system and found that there were no more tasks.

That's right, after all, even the initial main task has not been completed yet.

At this time, Sister Hong also found muddy footprints on the ground, and she took a flashlight to shine on them.

Although Xiao Chen has a certain night vision ability, but with the help of a flashlight, he can see more clearly.

Only then did he realize that the footprints seemed to be very small.

Another kid?
Xiao Chen was a little surprised, how could there be children here?

Xiao Chen is now increasingly suspicious of whether there are "elementary schools" or even "kindergartens" on this floor similar to those in pharmaceutical companies.

"The size of the footprints is wrong, so it's probably not the person I'm looking for." Sister Hong said, and her tone quickly became suspicious: "What is this kid doing here with his muddy footprints?"

At this time, Lu Xiaoxi bent down and touched the footprints and said, "It's done..."

But he quickly said "hey" in surprise: "No...it seems like I didn't do it again!"

When Lu Xiaoxi stood up and put his hands in front of Xiao Chen's eyes, Xiao Chen realized that Lu Xiaoxi's fingers were actually stained with blood!

Xiao Chen hurriedly looked at the footprints on the ground again, only to realize that the mud footprints just now had turned into blood footprints!

Lu Xiaoxi's eyes immediately widened, as if they were about to burst: "Boss...boss...there is a ghost here!"

Xiao Chen scolded him and said: "You are afraid of a fart! Forgot? I am also a ghost!"

But even though Xiao Chen said that, he was actually a little panicked.

On the contrary, Sister Hong was the calmest one. I saw that she had already taken out the previous energy detector at this time.

After opening it, Xiao Chen discovered that there was actually a light spot representing energy beside the three of them!
