Hearing that there was a ghost in the house, the "Jerboa" shuddered and felt that the courtyard behind him was gloomy.

"Did they really collide? What should I do now, Sangsang?" She was so nervous that she spoke incoherently, "Why don't I go back home now?"

Gu Zhisang shook his head and said, "Generally speaking, a ghost won't haunt a living person for no reason. You must have violated some taboo and accidentally provoked it to get close to you."

"It's useless to just run away from this situation. You must resolve the connection caused by this accident. Otherwise, if it's a fierce ghost, it will haunt you even if you leave this house or this city. Weaker ghosts will also linger here unwillingly. You can't give up this house, can you?"

The 'Jerboa' looked distressed.

What Gu Zhisang said touched her heart. Her parents worked hard all their life and spent all their savings to buy this house. They had no other residence.

Even if it was rented out, who would want a haunted house?

She asked, "Then how can I resolve the situation and send the one at home away?"

"That's easy." Gu Zhisang said dimly, "You didn't mean to offend it, and it didn't want to kill you. It probably just wanted to teach you a little lesson."

"If there is an incense shop nearby, you can go there to buy some paper objects such as incense, candles, paper money, gold ingots, etc., and prepare some offerings. Burn all the paper objects in the living room to express your apology and send away the ghost in the house."

Jumping Mouse quickly took out a pen and paper and wrote down everything he wanted to buy.

Gu Zhisang said: "This ritual needs to be performed for three consecutive days. After three days, the ghosts in your home can be sent away."

"Then I'll refund my ticket for tonight."

As Jerking Mouse said this, he canceled his train ticket back home on his mobile phone and sent a text message to his parents saying that he would not be returning home.

The two old people there were worried about her and called to ask about her.

After explaining, 'Jerking Mouse' hung up the phone and looked at the camera apologetically, "Sorry to take up some of your time."

"There seems to be a store across the street from our house that sells these things." She was a little confused and said, "When I buy them, how and where should I burn them? Do I need to say some words of apology or perform any rituals when burning them?"

Gu Zhisang in front of the camera frowned slightly, as if he was getting impatient and said:

"I have a shooting assignment this afternoon, so I can't wait for you here. If you really can't, go buy the things now, and I'll teach you how to cook."

'Jerking Mouse' quickly stood up with his phone in hand and walked towards the door.

"Okay, I'll go buy it now. Sangsang, thank you for your help!"

At this time, there were more than 4 million viewers in the live broadcast room. Seeing Gu Zhisang's cold attitude, some black fans and trolls took the opportunity to stir up trouble, saying sarcastically:

[I feel like Sangsang is acting weird today, and seems to be in a bad mood.]

[Tsk, this girl is really tactless. Can't she see that the big star is getting impatient? She keeps asking questions.]

[Can haters please stop taking advantage of the situation? This is extra time to answer questions. I've been live streaming for the whole morning, so isn't it normal to feel tired? ]

[I said that Gu Zhisang has been messing around with his character design. He can pretend for a while but not for the rest of his life. Isn't this just being a big shot and showing off to the audience? ]

When 'Jumping Mouse' walked out of the house, he saw some confusing comments and found that someone was taking advantage of his own affairs to stir up trouble.

She apologized and said guiltily: "It's true that I'm too troublesome. Sangsang has actually made it very clear what we need to buy. How about I quit the live broadcast first."

"No need." Gu Zhisang said.

"Then I'll run and buy it quickly."

The camera followed the footsteps of the "Jerboa". When she ran out of the community gate, Gu Zhisang suddenly called her.

The girl panted and picked up the phone, "What's wrong, Sangsang?"

Through the screen, Gu Zhisang saw that the "blood" on the "Jumping Mouse"'s face had faded a lot and was still slowly dissipating. She knew that her intervention had worked.

Gu Zhisang's expression eased and he said, "Don't go to the incense shop. Go to the nearest police station and call the police now."

'Jerboa' / Audience: ?

"Ah? Why?" The girl was confused and at a loss.

Is it possible to call the police to exorcise ghosts?

She was suspicious and asked.

Gu Zhisang's eyes were dark, and he curled the corners of his lips: "Of course you don't have to go to the police station to catch ghosts, but there has never been any ghost haunting your house from beginning to end."

In the astonished eyes of Jerking Mouse, she told the truth.

"The noises you heard, the objects being moved, and the injured cat were all caused by humans." Gu Zhisang said, "That 'ghost' is just a mentally twisted pervert."

Jerking Mouse was so frightened by this that he stammered for a long while, "Hidden, Tibetans? How is that possible... No, there's a pervert at my house..."

As she was talking, she suddenly realized something, her pupils shrank as she looked at the screen: "Sangsang, what you just said could not be...?"

Gu Zhisang did not deny it: "I just made up a cover to give you a chance to come out of the house and call the police."

"That person has been in your house the whole time. When you were communicating with me live, she should have been listening under your bed."

'Jerboa'/Audience:? ! !

[What the hell!! I got goosebumps. If that's the case, we were also on the mic with that pervert just now, but he didn't show up! ]

[This is really a crime scene reflected in reality. I was wondering why Sangsang was so strange just now. She was totally different from before. She was actually protecting the 'Jerboa'! ]

[Didn't the young lady say that sometimes she could hear some noises at the end of her bed at night? Could it be that the pervert is under her bed every night?! ]

[It's so scary, but a living person is hiding in the house, did the 'Jerboa' really not notice it at all? ]

[I suddenly thought of a very scary thing. If that pervert had been by the young lady's side, wouldn't he have heard that she was leaving by car this afternoon? If the young lady's comments were not seen by the anchor, and she didn't connect with the anchor and run out, then could she really leave her house tonight...? ]

[I thought it was a supernatural incident, but it was actually a criminal investigation. 】

[Help! I am alone at home now. I am so scared by the show that I dare not get out of bed! ]

【……】

Looking at the crazy refreshing barrage, Jerking Mouse's back was soaked with cold sweat.

Her legs were now weak and her face turned pale with fear.

Gu Zhisang comforted her and said, "Don't be afraid. That person must have believed my story and thought you were just walking around the incense shop. He didn't chase you. Go to the police station and report it. Once he's caught, you'll be safe."

But what she didn't tell the girl was that according to her original fate, her life would end in forty minutes.

The girl who was not connected to him via microphone would never know that there was a mentally twisted murderer lurking under her, just one layer of bed away from her.

When she was packing her luggage and preparing to leave the room, she would be hit on the back of the head with a hammer by the man, tortured to death and brutally dismembered.

Will become the victim of a homicide that shocked the city.

'Jerking Mouse' felt that Gu Zhisang's voice had a magical power that calmed her panic a little. She nodded repeatedly, and this time she didn't feel tired and ran to the nearby police station.

When she arrived at the police station, the female police officer who received her saw that she looked flustered and asked, "Hello, ma'am, how can I help you?"

'Jerboa': "I'm calling the police! There's someone in my house!"

When the police asked her about the details and how she discovered the matter, she told them everything about moving items around the house.

"My house is not big, only about 70 or 80 square meters. I never thought someone would hide in it, so I never called the police..."

'Jerking Mouse' is still frightened, and actually she also has an escapist mentality.

After all, she hadn't encountered any actual harm, nor had she noticed any other abnormalities, so she felt there was no need to call the police;

What if the police find nothing? It would be a wasted trip.

She was also afraid that calling the police would alert the neighbors, and it would be difficult to explain when they asked her about it.

The policewoman took it seriously and said, "I'll help you contact the police now. In fact, you should have called the police when you first noticed these abnormal conditions."

Gu Zhisang also contacted Zheng Ruyu online.

Zheng Ruyu notified the spirit group branch in the city where 'Jumping Mouse' was located and asked them to fully cooperate. Soon, several police officers went to 'Jumping Mouse's' home and brought detection tools.

When the group arrived downstairs in the community, they happened to run into a few familiar neighbors who were enjoying the cool air and chatting downstairs.

Seeing a group of policemen following the 'Jerboa', someone asked, "Nizi, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, ma'am. The police are just here to do a small investigation." 'Jumping Mouse' said vaguely.

The old lady didn't know whether she believed it or not, and fanned herself, "We watched this girl grow up, she is very well-behaved, she always helped us carry things when we are old and weak."

"By the way, the short guy downstairs asked me to thank you a few days ago. He said he was grateful for your help."

"Jerking Mouse" was a little embarrassed, said a few words to the old lady and then walked towards home.

When she saw the front door of her house, she felt timid and fearful, as if there was some ferocious beast inside and she would be eaten if she went in.

The female police officer behind her patted her shoulder and said, "Don't be nervous, we are with you."

After opening the door, the living room was completely silent, and it didn't look like anyone was there.

The police searched every corner but did not find any human figures. "Jumping Mouse" couldn't help but wonder if Gu Zhisang had made a mistake?

But the police officers in charge of the investigation soon made a discovery.

"There's a pinhole camera here, facing the bedroom door."

The camera was placed in the ornament on the shelf, silently watching the bedroom of "Jerboa" through the eyes of the ornament doll.

From this moment on, the comments in the live broadcast room were filled with exclamation marks.

In addition, the police also found three other cameras, one clamped behind the water pipe in the corner of the bathroom, and the other two were in the bedroom and the kitchen respectively.

Seeing these cameras, which were no bigger than the nail of a little finger, Jerboa's stomach churned and his face turned pale.

She felt sick when she thought about how long her privacy had been leaked and how every detail of her life in this house was exposed to others.

In addition, the police found two short hair strands under her bed and half of a palm print that the man accidentally left on the wooden board beside the bed when he left.

The hair can be tested, but it takes some time.

What puzzled the police officers was that the half palm print was very small, not even as big as the base of the policewoman's palm, and it looked like a child's hand.

The police officer said, "There is a little white frost residue in the teacup next to your bed. It should be some sleeping pills."

"Do you feel like there's anyone around you who might be a suspicious suspect?"

Jerking Mouse's mind went blank. "I don't know... My parents went back to their hometown more than a month ago. I don't have a boyfriend and I never bring anyone home."

At this moment, Gu Zhisang, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke, attracting everyone's attention.

Some bamboo stick cards had been placed on the table in front of her at some point, and each card had ancient Taoist characters engraved on it with a brush.

This is a bamboo sign she made some time ago, a kind of divination card.

In comparison, three-coin divination is only suitable for divination for oneself, while card divination has more choices and more detailed categories, and is suitable for divination for other people who are related to oneself.

Gu Zhisang said, "Grab those hairs and cameras in your hands, and then choose three bamboo cards."

At one point, some netizens said: [I am dying of laughter. This scene is so weird. If you tell fortunes in front of the police, won’t you be arrested for being a superstitious person? ]

After 'Jerking Mouse' chose the bamboo card, Gu Zhisang began to interpret it:

"This man wants to kill you. But he doesn't hate you. Instead, he has a deep, strange desire for you. He has a good impression of you."

"This person is someone close to you, someone close to you, not a stranger. You must have crossed paths before. He is not targeting you for no reason. He is not young anymore, probably in his forties. He has been in prison before... Well, he has killed someone before."

"He must have some kind of physical disability, or some disease that makes him unable to walk, which causes him to be extremely inferior and conceited, and his mind is distorted. He has only negative emotions in his heart, and exudes a disgusting smell like rotten garbage. But this person is very good at hiding it on the surface. He may be elegant, or he may be honest. You may even think he is a pretty good poor man."

After interpreting the message on the bamboo plaque, Gu Zhisang said, "Think carefully again, are there any people like this around you or people you often meet?"

'Jumping Mouse' thought for a long time, but couldn't think of such a person.

Suddenly a thought flashed through her mind, causing her expression to pause slightly.

She hesitated and said, "Among the people around me who have some health problems, there is only one neighbor..."

According to 'Jumping Mouse', the resident on the floor below her is a middle-aged man who moved in last year.

Although the man had wrinkles on his face and gray hair, he was only about one meter tall, a skinny dwarf, and a loner.

They had no interaction when they first moved in. It was one time in the elevator that the bag the neighbor was carrying broke and the contents were scattered all over the floor. Jerboa helped him pick up the things and even gave him his own canvas bag for him to use.

Because of this incident, they became familiar with each other upstairs and downstairs, and often greeted each other when they met.

In addition, this community sometimes holds activities to bring warmth to the elderly and disabled, and "Jumping Mouse" is a resident volunteer, who always brings food and oil from the downstairs neighbors to his door.

As for this person's past, she really didn't know.

The policewoman said: "Doesn't that half handprint look like a child's hand?"

So they decided to go downstairs and take a look.

As a result, I arrived at the man's door and knocked several times, but there was no response from inside.

"No one?"

Gu Zhisang frowned slightly and said, "No need to look for him, this person did it."

A wisp of deathly air emanated from this door. Through the lens and the screen, she could see the gray-black mist leaking out from the gap in the door.

Normally, the police cannot break into other people's homes without solid evidence and a search warrant, but this time with the support of the local ghost team, they still opened the door of the house.

As soon as they entered the door, everyone smelled a pungent smell of detergent, and it was obviously not a normal residence.

There was no one in the room, and after turning on the light, Tigger couldn't help shivering.

Because there are two rows of long shelves in the room, with many jars of medicinal wine and transparent breeding boxes, which are filled with snake and insect corpses soaked in **, and live lizards and spiders that are farmed. It's chilling to look at.

His kitchen was filled with a collection of exceptionally sharp knives and saws, of such variety that it was chilling to the touch.

The 'Jerboa' was clearly aware that he had walked on the edge of death.

If she hadn't been surrounded by so many police officers and connected to millions of netizens online, she would have probably broken down and cried out loud.

The police also found many photos of "jumping rats" on the bedroom wall of the dwarf middle-aged man, some of which were taken at home and some of which were taken secretly when he was doing volunteer work in the community;

There are also secretly filmed videos on the computer at home.

After seeing the man's handwriting, Gu Zhisang was able to deduct more detailed information about him and discovered that he had escaped.

He didn't suspect anything at first, but when he heard "Jumping Mouse" talking to some anchor on the microphone and saying there was a "ghost" in his house, he was quite nervous.

But when he heard Gu Zhisang say that the reason things in the house were moved was because they offended ghosts, the middle-aged dwarf relaxed and felt contempt in his heart.

He felt that Gu Zhisang was a charlatan, and after hearing that she had asked "Jumping Mouse" to cancel his ticket back home, he felt at ease to let "Jumping Mouse" go out.

But as the 'Jumping Mouse' was gone for a long time, he began to doubt;

He saw the police coming to the gate of the community from afar through the window, so he ran away.

At this point, all that was left was to capture the escaped dwarf.

After thanking Gu Zhisang, 'Jumping Mouse' left the microphone.

It was almost noon, and Gu Zhisang showed the Feng Shui and ornaments to several netizens who wanted to see the houses and graves. The morning's interactive live broadcast ended here.

When she got her phone, she saw that the morning show had become a hot topic again.

Among them, the "jumping mouse" incident directly jumped to the top of the hot search list.

Some people questioned the authenticity of the program and suspected that it was a script, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence that the suspect was under the girl's bed during Gu Zhisang's live broadcast.

However, since the police were present throughout the process, most netizens responded rationally.

Zheng Ruyu sent her the follow-up results of the incident.

Since there were surveillance cameras everywhere in the neighborhood, the dwarf was caught before he could run far.

According to local police investigation, the identity and name he used when living in this community were fake.

This man is already 47 years old. Just as Gu Zhisang calculated, he was imprisoned for intentional homicide when he was 19 years old. After reform and several reductions in sentence, he was released from prison just last year.

He killed a young woman from the same village.

The woman's family was an old friend of his. When he was a child and had not yet been diagnosed with dwarfism, the two families had arranged a marriage for him.

Later, when he reached adolescence, he was much shorter than his peers. After going to the hospital for a check-up, he found out that there were problems with his hormones and genes, and he would never grow very tall in his life.

The child marriage ended in nothing.

He had been bullied in the village since he was a child because of his short stature. He felt inferior and disgusted with the world. After his engagement was rejected, he felt that the family looked down on him and despised him for being sick, and he began to hate the girl as well.

Later, the girl started dating a boyfriend, but he brutally murdered her when they were discussing marriage, and he was sent to prison.

After he was released from prison, he became darker than when he was young, but he learned how to disguise himself and lived in a neighborhood where the people were simple and kind.

The reason why he targeted Jerking Mouse was that Jerking Mouse helped him in the elevator and gave him a kind smile.

He thought the girl was very kind, and he often spied on the "Jerboa" at that time.

In addition, the fact that 'Jerking Mouse' did not discriminate against him but often helped him made him think that the other party liked him and was interested in him.

He knew that the family would put the spare key under the carpet, so he secretly made a copy for himself. It was not until last month when the elders of "Jumping Mouse"'s family returned home that he found the opportunity.

The dwarf, relying on his short stature, often huddles in unexpected places, such as in cupboards, storage boxes, under beds... He also deliberately creates noises and feels very proud when he sees the "Jerboa" collapse.

The cat named Bubu often gets stressed because it noticed his presence. He thought the cat was really in the way, so he threw it out of the window.

When Jerking Mouse was so scared that he wanted to go back to his hometown for shelter, he heard the girl's mother's voice coming from the external audio:

"It would be nice for you to come back and live here for a while. You are already 25 and you have never had a boyfriend. If you come back, I can arrange a few blind dates for you."

Hearing about 'blind date', the dwarf was furious.

He had long regarded the 'Jerboa' as his own property. He instantly thought of the girl who broke off her childhood engagement more than 20 years ago, and the humiliation and strange looks from outsiders due to his height.

He felt that the 'Jerking Mouse' was no longer pure, so he wanted to keep the 'Jerking Mouse' forever, just like he had killed the girl he had married as a child.

After hearing the dwarf's motive for committing the crime, Gu Zhisang was speechless.

"He must be ill."

Zheng Ruyu sighed and said, "This man is indeed mentally ill. After this incident, they think he is still a dangerous person and should not be released. They should re-evaluate him. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be locked up again and there will be no chance for him to come out again."

"That girl suffered an unexpected disaster. I'm afraid she will be traumatized by the shock she received."

"It's lighter." Gu Zhisang said.

For such a scum, merely being tortured for life is too light a punishment.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Zhisang began to deduce the identity information of the woman who was killed by the dwarf man more than 20 years ago.

If the girl has not been reincarnated yet, she plans to open a convenient channel for the other party so that it can enter her dreams every night before reincarnation and seek revenge on the dwarf in her dreams.

Just as she was deducing in the lounge, a dark ghost door suddenly appeared in the room, and a chilling and gloomy aura filled the room.

Gu Zhisang:?

She turned her head and saw a ghost dressed in black and wearing an official hat, swaggering with a group of evil spirits with sullen faces. It was none other than Black Impermanence Fan Wujiu.

She stood up and bowed to Fan Wujiu, "I wonder why the ghost messenger asked me to pass through?"

Fan Wujiu said nonchalantly:

"You are quite capable as a mysterious master in the world of the living. You have captured a lot of evil ghosts for the underworld during this period. Those old guys in the Hades Palace are very satisfied."

Looking at Gu Zhisang's dark pupils, the pale and plump young man coughed and said, "It's just sometimes. You shouldn't meddle in other people's business. You just took advantage of the loopholes in the rules today. If you get to the bottom of it, you're violating the law."

Fan Wujiu was talking about the 'jumping mouse'.

If it weren't for Gu Zhisang, the girl would have become one of the ghosts following it.

But now the girl's fate line has changed, and changes have also occurred in the underworld's book of life and death;

Her life span was extended significantly.

However, Gu Zhisang was just a fortune teller, and the subsequent investigation and arrest were all intervened by the officials of the world of the living, so the power of rules prevented her from being affected by this cause and effect.

Before Gu Zhisang could reply, Fan Wujiu snorted and dragged a bunch of evil ghosts whose necks were strangled into the ghost gate.

Until the ghost gate disappeared, Gu Zhisang was a little confused.

Are all the underworld's evildoers so idle and kind?

——

After more than two hours of rest, the time came to 2.30 pm.

The team competition in the second half of the fifth episode officially began.
