She talked a lot in one breath, and then I realized that this was the 32nd floor of a building. No wonder it looked so familiar. -- --

After listening to her story quietly, I asked, "What I really don't understand is: you're a ghost. How did you appear at the train station under the sun that day? And why did you sit at the window on the 32nd floor? Do these 32 floors hold a deep meaning for you?"

Zhang Shaoqi's expression had returned to calm. He said, "I had just returned from visiting my mother in my hometown when I happened to meet you, uncle. At that time, I wasn't quite sure I was dead, so I acted just like a normal person... It wasn't until today when you pushed me down from the building that I remembered I had died a year ago and turned into a ghost. As for this 32nd floor, I don't know why, but it seems like something is guiding me, so I believe that this floor must contain what I want. My body? Or Dad?"

I asked with my imagination running wild: "I remember Liao Zhiyuan said that you and Zhang Longming are brother and sister, and you two have been orphans since childhood, so how can you be both father and mother..." I was a little confused.

Zhang Shaoqi explained, "Didn't you tell me before? Liao Zhiyuan has been setting a trap for you from the beginning. You have been misled by Liao Zhiyuan from the beginning. Zhang Longming is my brother, that's right. Our mother died a long time ago, and Dad brought us away from our hometown to this city. Just when Dad took over the construction of this building, a major accident happened and Dad passed away. We searched for a long time but couldn't find Dad's body. The workers continued to build on my father's body. In the end, I was disheartened and jumped off the building just when this building was completed..."

So that’s how it is!

That guy Liao Zhiyuan has been talking nonsense to me from the beginning. Most of the information he input into my head was fake... Damn it.

"So, you've been wandering this floor looking for your body and your dad all these days?" I asked.

Zhang Shaoqi nodded.

"When Zhang Longming and I first came to this building to investigate, the elevator passed the 32nd floor and suddenly the elevator door opened. Were you behind this?" I continued to ask.

Zhang Shaoqi still nodded: "I did it on purpose. I didn't want anyone to come to the 32nd floor. I was afraid they would destroy my last glimmer of hope, so I scared them."

I was sweating profusely. You know how scared I was! The elevator was clearly heading to the 36th floor, and suddenly the light on the 32nd floor came on. You know, the light inside the elevator only comes on when someone inside presses the button. If someone presses it from outside, you can't see it from inside. It was just Zhang Longming and I at the time, and neither of us pressed the button, so someone else must have pressed the button for the 32nd floor.

In other words, there was a "ghost" at that time.

The scary thing is that I can’t even see the existence of this “ghost”!

Finally, Zhang Shaoqi told me that it was because she possessed the uncanny ability to teleport and move instantly! Whenever a stranger entering the building for the first time took the elevator, she would remotely control the buttons to scare them into stopping on the 32nd floor. And I just experienced this ability to teleport. I had fallen from the 60th floor, but Zhang Shaoqi pulled me up and brought me directly into the building.

Su Xiaoniu also explained that ghosts generally possess these terrifying abilities, but the chances of becoming a ghost after death are extremely small. Many people, like Zhang Longming, become little ghosts after death. However, Liao Zhiyuan and Zhang Shaoqi are different. Liao Zhiyuan is an earthbound spirit. As long as he's within the confines of the building, he's invincible and unstoppable. Zhang Shaoqi is a ghost, capable of unleashing her terrifying abilities at any time and in any location. However, within the building, she's no match for Liao Zhiyuan. Ghosts, however, have another advantage: they can coexist with corpses.

In other words, if the corpse remains in the world, even if you disperse the ghost, it will reappear the next day. It's like an indestructible cockroach. You can only eliminate the ghost once and for all by destroying the corpse and then dispersing it.

This is also the reason why Liao Zhiyuan was anxious to find Zhang Shaoqi's body.

However, Zhang Shaoqi herself did not know where her body was, so how could we know? However, what Zhang Shaoqi said just now seemed to reveal that her body might be on the 32nd floor, but we did not know where it was.

I told her to go into the room that had never been opened. There were piles of corpses there, and maybe her body was among them.

Zhang Shaoqi agreed and followed me to the door of the room. Just as she was about to go in, Liao Zhiyuan's sinister laugh suddenly came from inside: "You finally came... But it's too late. Regardless of whether Zhang Shaoqi's body is inside, I've burned them all..."

Crash! A huge fire erupted in the entire room, and the stench of rotting flesh and thick smoke drifted out.

I covered my nose and retreated with Zhang Shaoqi. Liao Zhiyuan rushed out of the dark room with a wicked smile on his face. "Come on, and die obediently! Hahaha!"

Wild laughter filled the entire corridor.

Zhang Shaoqi was no match for Liao Zhiyuan. I had her hide behind me while I quickly pulled out the yellow paper and launched the Samadhi Fire Talisman at him. There was a sharp sound of clothes being torn. Looking closely, I saw that Liao Zhiyuan had simply flung his hand to deflect my Samadhi Fire Talisman. The Samadhi Fire brushed past his sleeve, scorching a corner of his clothing.
