Aoba Office

Through Chen Xiaoqiu, I contacted Chen Yihan, and after further checking, I heard news that made my chest feel tight.

The police investigated and searched the entire community, but they could not find Zhang Xin, the tenant of 402, who is Gui Yu himself.

There were four corpses found in Room 402. Except for Tiantian and Qi Bai, the other two corpses were in the living room and entrance. I saw two white lines outlining the shape of the fallen body.

No ghost whispers.

Did Ye Qing take Guiyu away?

But I dreamed about ghost whispering, ghost whispering should be dead...

When did he die?

It happened three days ago. It's been three full days now.

Moreover, even if Ye Qing wanted to use Ghost Whisper, given his current situation and Ghost Whisper's situation, it would be impossible for him to keep Ghost Whisper alive and use his abilities.

I left the room and walked downstairs when I suddenly thought: Even if Guiyu dies, it doesn't mean everything is over. It is possible for Ghost Whisper to turn into a ghost after death and still be able to use his abilities.

Ghost Whisper...maybe still imprisoned by Ye Qing somewhere.

I couldn't restrain my suspicion, nor could I restrain my inner resistance to Ye Qing's approach.

I try to think on the bright side.

Ye Qing has a long-term job and endless food, and his power should be further improved. This is a good thing. At least we don't have to worry about Ye Qing losing control. Ye Qing is still bearing the side effects of his ability for me and others. The stronger he is, the better it is for us.

Even so, there was no way to stop the heartache immediately.

On the way back, I thought of new questions.

Ye Qing ate the ghosts that escaped from Guiyu's body, so what about the people who were killed by those ghosts at that time? Have the ghosts they turned into been cleaned up by Ye Qing?

Qi Bai's ghost also contacted Shouzi. She was not eaten by Ye Qing.

Did Ye Qing intentionally let her go and give me a chance to resurrect her, or was there something wrong in the process?

That dream just now...

I started racking my brain to remember.

The dream just now was really not clear enough. There was only a dim moonlight shining through the door in the dark room. The moonlight didn't come directly in, it was the moonlight in the living room.

I basically couldn't see anything.

The Yin Qi I felt at that time was only Ye Qing's.

When did the police investigate that community and take away the body?

I turned on my phone and sent another message to Chen Xiaoqiu, asking about the matter again.

Chen Xiaoqiu responded quickly this time.

It happened at two or three o'clock in the afternoon. I saw this time through the dream of possessing Qi Bai. The police received the call at 4:23. The police who responded were only concerned about neighborhood disputes and family disputes. What the caller said was that some people were making noise, some people were calling for help, and some people were seen running outside. The person who called the police didn't live in the same building as Gui Yu, and he didn't see which building the person who ran out came from.

Guiyu's house was not the first scene the police arrived at.

The first murder scene they discovered was another building next door. That was Ling Yi's alarm call. The owner of the house directly said that it was haunted and that the ghost had killed his wife. By the time the police arrived, the owner of the house had also been killed. Both husband and wife died of traumatic injuries. The case was treated as a tragedy caused by domestic violence.

Then came the third call to police.

Only then did the authorities realize that this was a supernatural event. More people in the community saw ghosts and ran away in fear.

In the end, the police sealed off the community and explained the incident as a chemical gas leak, which caused residents to hallucinate and led to several tragedies.

"Twelve corpses were found." Chen Xiaoqiu gave me a specific number.

Looking at it this way, Ye Qing's movement speed is quite fast, but there are still fish that slip through the net.

Maybe it was Grandma Enna who delayed Ye Qing's actions.

And Qi Bai probably escaped at that time.

"I just received news. The bodies of Qi Bai's parents were found." Chen Xiaoqiu immediately gave me the new news.

I was stunned.

"Both of them died in their own homes. They were dismembered. Preliminary judgment is that they were dismembered before death."

I shuddered and suddenly thought of the scene I saw in Side Effects.

In that scene, it was the thin man who was dismembered!

My heart beat faster and I had a bad feeling. Maybe I'm overthinking. The thin man was currently with Aoba's people. They are all staying together...

I still called the thin man.

When the call was connected, the thin man spoke in a natural tone.

I didn’t dare to talk about the death of Qi Bai’s parents for a while.

Qi Bai died, Qi Bai turned into a ghost, and Qi Bai's parents were dismembered alive... The thin man could accept the first two bad news, and he could still think optimistically that Qi Bai was not that kind of evil ghost, and that my ability could bring him back to life. Qi Bai. But when he hears the last bad news, will he still feel like this?

I'm worried that the thin man will lose control of his emotions, and I'm even more worried that his loss of control will affect his abilities. In that case, it would be even more troublesome.

I could only hang up the phone perfunctorily and secretly send a message to Wu Ling to remind her of this incident.

Wu Ling seemed to have known this for a long time. It is possible that Nangong Yao has been monitoring this information.

Her calmness put me at ease a little.

"...You should also be prepared." Wu Ling finally sent me this message.

"What?" I asked nervously.

"We can't guarantee that everything will go wrong. Especially Mr. Tan, who trusts Qi Bai very much. If she attacks directly, we can deal with it easily. But if she creates some illusions, makes some disguises, and deliberately acts, Mr. Tan will This is an unstable factor, and it is very likely to kill yourself." Wu Ling sent a message, and then she wrote, "I can understand that you are not going to tell Mr. Tan this, depending on his situation. He may not believe it either, so you have to be prepared.”

This is worse news than the death of Qi Bai's parents.

Wu Ling's inference cannot be said to be wrong. The possibility of this inference is too high.

With Shouzi's character, even if he knew that Qi Bai might become an evil spirit, he would still want to give it a try. Try to communicate with Qi Bai, try to make Qi Bai regain his sense...

This cannot be said to be wrong.

Putting myself in my shoes, if my parents and sister became such ghosts, I would also want to save them.

Even when Ye Qing lost control before, we didn't even think of killing Ye Qing immediately.

Of course, lack of strength and being unable to kill Ye Qing was also a problem.

I sighed and could only reply that Wu Ling knew it.

Are you ready...

How to prepare?

Is it to resurrect the thin man, or to change the past?

I don't know how far reality will go. The so-called preparation is at best psychological preparation.

I thought about it, and I got back home by car.

That night, I didn't have any more dreams.

When I got up in the morning and was about to change clothes, I received a call from Wu Ling.

My heart skipped a beat, I pressed answer and heard Wu Ling's serious voice.

"Lynch, Mr. Tan is missing."
