◎Hospital+Clues+New Live Broadcast◎

I just sent Song Wenqing away and gained 15 merit points, which just paid off the merit points I owed.

She has been a little tired these days, and she must be more fully prepared when facing a mission suspected to be from the K organization, so she plans to go to the former site of Renhe Hospital again tomorrow.

So she sent a message in the group.

[Jiang Chuxu]: I plan to go there tomorrow. Can we create a temporary group to discuss the time?

Soon, a new group called "TD-088 Assault Team" was set up, with her, Lin Hezhao, Liu Lanzhen and Xu Zhaojin as its members.

[Lin Hezhao]: I just got off the plane. It will be late at night when I get to the city. How about tomorrow?

[Liu Lanzhen]: +1. I have some finishing work to do, so I have to take the high-speed train tomorrow morning at the earliest.

[Xu Zhaojin]: Okay, let’s meet at the entrance of Renhe Hospital at 10 o’clock tomorrow morning.

【Jiang Chuxu】：1

As soon as they agreed on the time, Ding Yucheng sent a link. This time Jiang Chuxu was already very proficient.

She quickly clicked in to check the mission information.

The detailed information of the mission includes the floor plan of the abandoned Renhe Hospital, historical information, as well as the oral record provided by the adventure anchor "Midnight Soul King" and clips of the live broadcast at that time.

The hospital was built in the 1970s and has been abandoned for almost twenty years.

The anchor claimed that they encountered a strange low temperature area in the corridor on the third floor of the old inpatient department. At that time, everyone in the team could feel the temperature drop suddenly, and the things they had placed aside inexplicably appeared in another place.

They also used flashlights to see a blurry shadow passing by quickly, which scared them so much that they immediately interrupted the live broadcast.

At the end of the document were a few photos of the scene provided by the anchor, showing a dim corridor, peeling wall paint, and a few overturned broken chairs. There was nothing particularly unusual.

Jiang Chuxu finished scanning quickly and had a general idea in her mind. She didn't stay any longer, put away her phone and took Xiao Hei home.

She needs to concentrate tomorrow, so Jiang Chuxu doesn't plan to do a live broadcast for the time being. She plans to have a good rest for the day.

Her rest lasted until nine o'clock the next morning. There was still an hour left before the agreed time. She did not delay and immediately took a taxi to Qinghe Road in Chengdong District after packing her things.

The abandoned Renhe Hospital stands alone on the edge of an old city area awaiting demolition. Its rusty iron gate is ajar and the entrance is overgrown with weeds.

From the outside, this is a standard haunted house. The strange thing is that this hospital building is not surrounded by too much evil spirits, which can be said to be within the normal range.

But this doesn't make sense at all, especially in an abandoned hospital.

As we all know, the hospital is the place where yin and yang meet. Even if the hospital has been abandoned, the yin energy that was previously condensed will not disappear inexplicably.

Someone must be doing this on purpose. If nothing goes wrong, it must be the work of the K organization.

Jiang Chuxu observed the hospital building before noticing two women and one man standing not far away.

Before she could move, the three people came over. The woman walking in front looked very capable and had sharp eyes. She should be Xu Zhaojin.

Jiang Chuxu couldn't tell who was who among the remaining two people. They were both very lively in the group, but now they seemed to be quieter than the other.

"Jiang Chuxu?" Her voice was crisp and a little gravelly.

Jiang Chuxu nodded: "Xu Zhaojin?"

"It's me." Xu Zhaojin also nodded as a confirmation.

She turned sideways and introduced the other two: "Lin Hezhao, Liu Lanzhen."

Lin Hezhao was wearing a sports jacket and grinned, revealing his white teeth. "Good morning."

Liu Lanzhen, wearing a light-colored sweatshirt and looking a little shy, whispered, "Hello."

These two guys are totally different from the way they joke around in the group.

Jiang Chuxu simply responded: "Hello."

"Have you read all the information?" Xu Zhaojin didn't waste any words and went straight to the point.

"The low-temperature area and the items the anchor mentioned are located in the corridor on the third floor. During the day, when the Yang energy is strong, those ghosts may not appear, but traces may still be there. Let's check the entire corridor first, focusing on the third floor."

"Okay." Jiang Chuxu had no objection, and Xiao Hei changed his position and lay on her shoulder.

The wall paint of the main building of the hospital has fallen off severely, revealing the gray-black bricks underneath.

The door lock had been broken for a long time and was only half-closed. When pushed, it made a sharp "creaking" sound that could be heard from far away in the open environment.

As soon as you walk into the building, you can smell a strange odor. Sunlight slants in from the broken windows, and dust is flying in the beam of light.

The corridor was very long, with dark clinic doors on both sides, and waste paper, broken glass and some garbage that could not be recognized from its original state scattered on the ground.

"Wow, a standard horror movie set." Lin Hezhao shook his head.

"It's weird how clean it is." Xu Zhaojin whispered, frowning slightly.

Jiang Chuxu also nodded and said, "Just now when I was outside, I noticed that the Yin energy was very weak. I didn't expect that it would be even weaker after coming in."

The four people have different approaches. Jiang Chuxu can directly see the Yin energy, but the other three rely on feeling.

At this moment, Liu Lanzhen suddenly asked curiously, "I've watched your live broadcast. Is the world you see the same as in the live broadcast, dark and hazy?"

Jiang Chuxu thought for a moment before saying, "It was like this for the first one or two years, but later it became controllable."

"I'm so envious." Lin Hezhao couldn't help but sigh. It would be great if he could also see the existence of ghosts directly.

Although Xu Zhaojin and Liu Lanzhen didn't say anything, it could be seen from their eyes that they also wanted to see the evil spirits and ghosts.

But they also know that these abilities are innate, rare to have one, and even fewer to possess and enter the industry.

Moreover, people with this ability are easily haunted by ghosts. If they cannot enter the industry, just seeing ghosts every day can scare them half to death.

The few of them did not discuss this topic too much. They just looked at Jiang Chuxu tacitly when they walked into a room, as if asking "Is there a ghost in this room?"

I don’t know if it was because they were cleaned too thoroughly, but all the clinics on the first floor don’t have any ghosts, let alone much negative energy.

Liu Lanzhen also began to mutter: "Something is wrong."

No ghost could understand. Perhaps it was not the ghost's active time yet, or these ghosts were somewhere else during the day, but this was the first time in all the missions they had done that there was no yin energy.

Going up the stairs to the second floor, it was even more dilapidated than the first floor. Some parts of the ceiling had collapsed, revealing dark holes.

Rusty iron beds were scattered in the corridor. After checking several wards and nurses' stations, the situation remained the same. The yin energy was so weak that it seemed as if it had been forcibly drawn away by some force.

"The focus is on the third floor." Xu Zhaojin pointed to the stairs going up.

When I stepped onto the staircase leading to the third floor, a faint chill permeated me, like the cold air leaking out when the refrigerator door was just opened. It was very faint, but more obvious than downstairs.

"This is it." Xu Zhaojin stopped at the stairs and glanced at the entrance to the corridor on the third floor.

The chill was a little more noticeable here, but it was fleeting.

The corridor on the third floor was even messier than the one downstairs, with several worn wooden chairs overturned on the ground.

In addition to the garbage on the ground, there were also several irregular drag marks, but they were very shallow, as if something had been moved, but it was covered with dust and could not be seen clearly.

"Traces of something being moved?" Lin Hezhao squatted down. "It looks like it was scratched by a chair leg."

Liu Lanzhen walked cautiously to the middle of the corridor, where the lingering chill was most noticeable.

She didn't take out the compass, but instead calmly sensed the Yin energy in the air. Her brows furrowed tighter and tighter, "The remaining Yin energy here is very strange, not like normal Yin energy."

Liu Lan was really not sure how to describe this feeling. This yin energy was like a low-quality industrial product.

Jiang Chuxu didn't say anything, his eyes fell on a half-open window at the end of the corridor. The window frame was severely rusted and the glass was long gone.

She walked over and looked out the window at the deserted inpatient department overgrown with weeds behind the main hospital building.

There was a thick layer of dust on the windowsill, but there was a small area near the inner edge where the dust had been rubbed off, leaving a small circular indentation.

"K Organization?" Xu Zhaojin also followed and raised his eyebrows when he saw the traces.

"Maybe, he was very cautious and didn't leave any fingerprints or anything else." Jiang Chuxu didn't touch the mark, but took out his mobile phone and took a few photos.

Just then, there was a sudden noise from downstairs, mixed with excited shouts and footsteps.

"Family, have you seen this? This is the legendary haunted Renhe Hospital! Last time, the Ghost King encountered an evil spirit in the third-floor corridor here at midnight. Today, Brother Tietou will lead you to brave the dragon's den and the tiger's cave!"

A loud male voice came through the loudspeaker, and the sound echoed in the empty building.

Soon after, several figures emerged from the stairs. The leader was a young man with dyed yellow hair. He was holding a selfie stick with a fill light and talking into his phone.

Following behind were two people carrying small cameras and lighting.

"Oh my god! Is there anyone here?" The yellow-haired anchor Tietou Ge saw the group of four in the corridor. He was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes lit up.

"Oh my god, fellow enthusiasts! Are you here to explore the spirit world too? Which platform are you on? Let's live stream together? It'll double the popularity!"

He stared at Jiang Chuxu, feeling as if he had seen him somewhere before, but the lighting here was not very good, and Jiang Chuxu was standing with his back to the light, so he didn't recognize him.

Tietou brother came over enthusiastically with a selfie stick in hand, and the camera almost hit several people in the face.

Xu Zhaojin frowned, took a half step back, and said coldly, "Unrelated personnel, get out."

"Hey! How can you talk like that! Is this place owned by your family?" Tietou Ge was unhappy, stiffening his neck. "It's a public place, and you can explore it but I can't? Brothers, isn't that right? Give out the gifts! Let's show some people who is the best ghost hunter!"

The cameraman behind him also joined in the commotion, and the bright lights were dazzling.

Lin Hezhao took a step forward, a smile on his face, but his tone was unquestionable: "Brother, this is really not possible. This place is dangerous. We are professionally inspecting and assessing building safety. We have found some hidden dangers and are dealing with them. No unauthorized entry, please understand."

"Building safety?" Tietou looked at them suspiciously. "Who are you trying to fool? Checking for safety hazards with a cat?"

He pointed at Xiao Hei on Jiang Chuxu's shoulder, and Xiao Hei glanced at him lazily.

"Special occupations." Jiang Chuxu said concisely.

She ignored Tietou Ge and decisively took out her cell phone and sent a message to Lu Changan.

[Jiang Chuxu]: A celebrity anchor and his team broke into the Renhe Hospital on Qinghe Road. We would like to ask the local police to handle this matter. The reason is: they broke into the dangerous building to be demolished, which poses a safety risk.

[Lu Changan]: Okay, I'll ask the police in their jurisdiction to go over there.

Tietou Ge was still yelling, "Stop bluffing! I think you're just afraid I'll steal your traffic! I'm telling you, I'm going to do this live broadcast today! Family, let's rush in and see if it's a human or a ghost."

He was holding a selfie stick and was about to squeeze into the back of the corridor.

At this time, Liu Lanzhen suddenly picked up the mobile phone, and the volume was neither loud nor soft, just loud enough for the other party to hear.

"Hello, is this 110? Someone's illegally trespassing at the former Renhe Hospital site on Qinghe Road and refusing to leave the dangerous building awaiting demolition. Yes, three of them, armed with equipment, and quite noisy..."

Tietou Ge and his team's expressions changed instantly. Live streaming is most afraid of getting in trouble with the police and having your account blocked.

"Fuck! Are you really calling the police? Okay, you're so cruel!" Tietou cursed, trying to save face in front of the camera, "My family saw it, there's something fishy going on. They must have done it themselves and are afraid we'll find out! Let's retreat today, and Tietou will come back alone another day to reveal the truth to you. It's absolutely true, so follow us and don't get lost!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked downstairs with his team in a dejected manner, their footsteps thumping away as they ran away.

The corridor instantly returned to silence.

"Very efficient." Xu Zhaojin glanced at Liu Lanzhen.

Liu Lanzhen smiled sheepishly: "It's fake, just to scare you, as long as it works."

But within a few minutes, sirens suddenly sounded downstairs, followed by the police's shouts.

After about ten minutes, the sirens faded away.

Liu Lan was really stunned. She didn’t call the police, so why did the police come? Did the police notice the live broadcast?

"I called the police." Jiang Chuxu shook his cell phone.

"Well done, the irrelevant personnel have left, let's move on."

Jiang Chuxu and the others refocused their attention on those traces.

They spent nearly two hours carefully screening the entire building, especially the third floor.

But apart from the lingering feeling of unusually low temperature, the drag marks on the ground and the vague indentation on the windowsill, they did not find any more obvious clues.

The people from K organization were obviously very professional and cleaned very well.

"It seems that's all for the daytime." Lin Hezhao stretched his neck, "We have to wait until the main person comes out for a walk in the evening."

"Find a place to rest and come back at night."

Unable to find any useful information, the four of them had no choice but to leave the hospital building and find a small noodle restaurant that was still open on the corner opposite the hospital to have lunch. They also discussed their plan and took turns to rest and recharge their energy.

Time passes quickly while waiting.

The sky gradually darkened, the city lights came on, and the abandoned Renhe Hospital was completely hidden in the thick night, looking even more creepy than during the day.

As soon as it got dark, the four of them stood in front of the hospital gate again.

The few of them had just discussed it. Jiang Chuxu and Liu Lanzhen would go in to investigate, while Lin Hezhao and Xu Zhaojin would stay outside and keep an eye on the situation to prevent any reinforcements or ordinary people from accidentally entering.

Jiang Chuxu and Liu Lanzhen put their communicators in their pockets, and they pushed open the heavy iron door again and stepped into the dark hospital.

Xiao Hei squatted on Jiang Chuxu's shoulder, his eyes glowing faintly in the darkness.

The hospital was eerily silent at night, the air seemed frozen, with only the sounds of their own footsteps and breathing.

The chill that was almost imperceptible during the day became clear at this moment. When I stepped onto the stairs leading to the third floor, the coldness suddenly became more severe, as if I had stepped into another cold world.

"The temperature is dropping very quickly." Liu Lanzhen whispered, her voice a little tense.

The compass needle in her hand began to tremble slightly, and finally pointed deep into the corridor.

The two stepped onto the corridor on the third floor. The area swept by the flashlight beam looked no different from that during the day.

But the temperature was indeed continuing to drop, and the exhaled breath turned into white mist.

In the silence, there seemed to be some invisible pressure gathering.

Suddenly, a crisp "clang" sound came from deep in the corridor, as if something fell to the ground.

The two of them immediately focused their flashlights there, only to see that a folding chair that had been lying on the ground at the end of the corridor had stood up on its own at some point, with its back facing them, casting a twisted, elongated shadow on the ground.

Then, the chair seemed to be pushed by an invisible hand. The legs of the chair rubbed against the dusty concrete floor, making a teeth-grinding sound. The chair slid towards them at an extremely slow speed.

"The object is moving..." Liu Lanzhen tightened her grip on the instrument, and the pointer began to jump even more violently.

Jiang Chuxu didn't show any expression, but Xiao Hei on his shoulder pricked up his ears and shook the tip of his tail slightly.

"It's moved by a ghost." Jiang Chuxu took something out of his pocket and handed it to Liu Lanzhen.

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Liu Lanzhen felt a flash in front of her eyes after she picked it up. When she looked at the chair again, there were three ghosts standing behind the chair, and several of them were staring at them!

Liu Lanzhen didn't bother to observe the ghosts. She lowered her head and stared at the paper in her hand with shock on her face. If she remembered correctly, wasn't this a pack of paper they just bought at the supermarket?

Before she could say anything, Jiang Chuxu suddenly patted her shoulder, finally bringing her attention back to the ghosts not far away.

Several ghosts pushed the chair and slid about three or four meters, then suddenly stopped.

The corridor fell into deathly silence again, only the biting cold was getting stronger and stronger, almost freezing people to death.

Just when Liu Lanzhen breathed a sigh of relief, thinking it was just a little trick.

"Ahhhh! Ghost! Help!"

A terrified scream, accompanied by messy and heavy footsteps, suddenly exploded from the direction of the stairs downstairs.

The sound was particularly harsh in the extremely quiet environment, and it scared Liu Lanzhen so much that her hands shook and she almost dropped the flashlight.

Jiang Chuxu recognized the voice of the Iron-Headed Man from this morning. He hadn't left? He had even sneaked back alone?!

Footsteps rushed frantically towards the third floor. He cried incoherently, "Don't chase me, get out of the way, something is chasing me, help! Police comrades! Are you still there?! Mommy, Daddy!"

The next second, Tietou Ge rushed up to the third floor, his face covered with snot and tears, his coat was torn, and the selfie stick in his hand had been thrown away somewhere long ago.

He was like a cannonball out of control, his eyes filled with extreme fear, and he rushed towards where Jiang Chuxu and Liu Lanzhen were standing.

Liu Lanzhen subconsciously wanted to dodge, but Jiang Chuxu stood there without moving.

Just when Tietou was about to bump into her, Jiang Chuxu stretched out a hand and pressed it firmly on his shoulder.

Jiang Chuxu's palm was icy cold, which instantly made Tietou Ge, who was running wildly, feel like he was falling into an ice cave. His whole body suddenly stiffened and he almost fainted on the spot.

He looked up in horror and met Jiang Chuxu's emotionless eyes. He shuddered again with fear, his legs went weak and he wanted to kneel down.

He recognized that this was the "professional team" from this morning, and he instantly felt relieved. It was good to have someone there.

"There's a ghost chasing me!" Brother Tietou pointed at the dark stairs, his voice trembling and out of tune.

"It's white, floating, and has no legs! It's trying to catch me!"

Jiang Chuxu ignored him and looked over his shoulder at the thick darkness at the stairs.

Liu Lanzhen also nervously swept the flashlight over there.

In the shadow at the corner of the stairs, a twisted white figure was floating there silently.

The ghost had no facial features, but its limbs were clearly visible. It was swaying slightly, as if staring at them.

Brother Tietou followed Jiang Chuxu's gaze and turned around to see the ghost. He was frightened and screamed again.

Jiang Chuxu was speechless. She suddenly said, "Do you know why you can see ghosts?"

Tietouge didn't react for a moment and asked subconsciously: "Why?"

"Because you're dying."

Liu Lanzhen almost laughed out loud, but Jiang Chuxu didn't think she was joking, just a little serious.

After all, if you can inexplicably see ghosts as an adult, then there must be a lot of negative energy around you, and you are more likely to be haunted by ghosts. If you don’t find a professional to solve the problem as soon as possible, won’t you be dead soon?

Jiang Chuxu's words "Because you are dying" were like a basin of ice water poured on Tietou Ge's head, freezing the last bit of his energy.

He rolled his eyes, made a "ugh" sound in his throat, and then completely collapsed like a fish out of water, unable to move.

"...You're also here to broadcast live?" Jiang Chuxu was shocked. Generally speaking, shouldn't people who broadcast live from haunted places have strong mental qualities?

Liu Lanzhen speculated: "Maybe it's because they didn't think there were real ghosts and thought it was someone pretending to be a ghost. They didn't expect to actually encounter a ghost today."

Perhaps dissatisfied with Jiang Chuxu and Liu Lanzhen for ignoring them, the ghosts in front and behind all began to approach.

This lineup would be considered a small BOSS in a horror movie.

Jiang Chuxu didn't say anything, but just took a step forward. Xiao Hei on his shoulder barked a few times, his voice was loud and a little sharp.

“Meow meow——”

The movements of those pushing the chairs froze instantly, and they remained in various funny pushing postures, with confusion written all over their faces as if to ask "Who am I and where am I?"

The ghost at the stairs seemed to feel threatened, and the negative energy in its body surged violently. It let out a sharp howl and then pounced towards the two of them.

It was very fast and appeared in front of the two of them almost instantly.

"Be careful!" Liu Lanzhen exclaimed, and the compass needle in her hand spun wildly.

Jiang Chuxu didn't even raise his eyelids, Xiao Hei jumped directly onto the white shadow ghost. Xiao Hei was able to touch ghosts, and this collision directly pressed the white shadow ghost to the ground.

To be precise, it was not completely on the ground. It seemed to be hanging by Xiao Hei's claws, suspended a few centimeters above the ground.

The negative energy on the white shadow ghost weakened a lot in an instant, as if it had suffered a serious blow.

It paused for a moment, as if it didn't react. When it felt the pain in its body, it screamed again, its voice full of pain and incredible fear.

Liu Lan was stunned, her mouth opened so wide that an egg could be stuffed in.

Is this enough to suppress it? Then why are they so troublesome and using all kinds of tricks all the time?

No wonder Jiang Chuxu was hired directly without a probation period. He just casually demonstrated some of his abilities during the emotional live broadcast.

She looked at Jiang Chuxu, then turned to look at the listless ghost and the little black thing on the ghost. Her worldview was shocked like never before.

The world of the big boss is indeed something that mortals like her cannot understand.

"Be quiet." Jiang Chuxu looked at the white ghost and spoke in a flat tone.

She walked forward, ignoring the immobilized chair ghosts, and squatted next to the white shadow ghost.

She stretched out her finger, ready to read the ghost's remaining memory fragments as usual. Perhaps those contents could help her find the base of the K organization or change its direction.

Just as her fingertips were about to touch the white shadow ghost, something strange happened.

The white shadow ghost and the push chair ghost next to it seemed as if their self-destruct buttons had been pressed, and the negative energy on their bodies suddenly exploded.

"Not good!" Liu Lanzhen subconsciously protected her head and face.

Jiang Chuxu stood in front of Liu Lanzhen's body, and Xiao Hei quickly moved and jumped into Jiang Chuxu's arms. Xiao Hei's pupils were fixed on the exploding Yin Qi, and he kept snoring from his mouth.

These evil energies automatically avoided Jiang Chuxu and Xiao Hei in her arms, as well as Liu Lanzhen who was blocked and Tietou Ge who was lying behind Liu Lanzhen.

When the negative energy completely dissipated, the corridor became empty in an instant.

The ghosts completely disappeared, as if everything that had just happened was just an illusion.

Liu Lanzhen was still in shock, her heart still pounding wildly: "Disappeared? Self-destructed?"

Jiang Chuxu's eyes turned cold: "It should be a remote removal, K's work."

At that moment, she felt the breath of other evil spirits, which must be a more powerful evil spirit taking action.

Jiang Chuxu's tone was a little unhappy. He had finally found some clues, but he didn't expect them to be so alert.

"Like cockroaches, once they're exposed, they destroy themselves, leaving no trace behind."

This made it impossible for her to start investigating anything. These ghosts didn't even have clear faces, so it was difficult to find out their identities.

However, these ghosts were not very powerful, and she suspected that they were semi-finished products.

"Half-successful?" Liu Lanzhen finally realized what was happening, still feeling a lingering fear. "Wouldn't a completely successful one be even scarier?"

Jiang Chuxu had no interest in guessing: "Maybe, it's all blown up anyway."

She looked around, her flashlight carefully scanning every corner.

"Look again to see if there are any fish that have slipped through the net, or anything that those people left behind."

The two of them carefully searched the corridor on the third floor again, even looking at the circular indentation on the windowsill several times, and even let Xiao Hei sniff around.

The result was naturally nothing. The K organization's ability to clean up the battlefield was an industry benchmark and was incredibly professional.

"It's so clean that even mice that come in have to leave with tears in their eyes." Liu Lanzhen sighed helplessly.

"Let's go." Jiang Chuxu glanced at Tietou brother lying on the ground like a dead pig, "Drag this guy out, don't keep him here."

Liu Lanzhen resigned herself to her fate and she and Jiang Chuxu each lifted one of Tietou Ge's arms and dragged him downstairs like a sack.

Tietou Ge's feet left two long marks on the ground, and combined with his occasional sobbing in a coma, the scene was very funny.

When I walked outside, the cool night breeze instantly blew away the strange smell in the hospital.

Xu Zhaojin and Lin Hezhao came forward immediately.

But both of them looked unhappy, especially Xu Zhaojin, who had a frown on his face and seemed very angry.

"Is it resolved inside?" Xu Zhaojin glanced at Tietou Ge who was dragged out, and his gaze immediately returned to Jiang Chuxu's face.

"Well, a few ghosts. I don't know what means those people used to make them all scared to death, leaving no trace." Jiang Chuxu said as he threw Brother Tietou to the ground.

"What about you? How are things going?"

Xu Zhaojin's face turned even uglier. Not only did this Tietou brother get in from nowhere, but the people from K just now also showed up, but they couldn't stop him at all.

Lin Hezhao rushed to speak, his tone annoyed: "Something happened outside just now. Not long after you went in, three men in black suits suddenly rushed out from nearby. They were sneaking around and carrying a box. We just rushed over..."

Xu Zhaojin took over, his voice filled with suppressed anger and a hint of fear.

"In the end, seven or eight evil spirits appeared out of nowhere! They were all old ghosts wearing hospital gowns, full of resentment, very powerful, and very fast. It was obvious that they were specially trained. He Zhao and I were entangled."

"Yes!" Lin Hezhao waved his arms, looking aggrieved.

"Those old ghosts were like chicken blood, rushing up recklessly, their claws were so sharp that they even knocked Sister Xu's detector away. By the time we finally got rid of those ghosts, the three men in black suits had already run away!"

He stamped his feet in anger: "Diverting the tiger away from the mountain, making a feint to the east and attacking in the west, these people are really good at it!"

Jiang Chuxu didn't show any surprise after hearing this. He just said "Oh" and commented, "Quite quick reaction, very agile runner, worthy of being a professional ditch rat."

Her calm reaction made Xu Zhaojin and Lin Hezhao choke.

Xu Zhaojin took a deep breath and said, "I'm sorry, we were careless and didn't stop them."

Jiang Chuxu waved his hand nonchalantly: "It's normal that we can't stop them. They have already prepared a backup plan. If you don't lose any limbs, it will be considered a success."

As she spoke, her eyes swept over Xu Zhaojin's slightly messy hair and Lin Hezhao's torn jacket, and she added, "Can torn clothes be reimbursed?"

Lin Hezhao: “…”

Is this a reimbursement thing?!

This is dignity! The dignity of the great master Lin!

Xu Zhaojin's mouth twitched as he pulled out his phone. "I'll first report the situation to Old Wu and request support from the trace investigation department. No matter how cleanly they leave, as long as they've been there, they'll always leave some clues."

"Okay." Jiang Chuxu had no objection. She walked to a relatively clean cement block nearby and sat down. Xiao Hei jumped down and licked his paws gracefully at her feet.

[Xu Zhaojin]: TD-088 on-site briefing: Several modified ghosts were encountered on the third floor. Their faces were blurred and their strength was below average. They appear to be semi-finished artifacts of the K Organization. The ghosts were forcibly eliminated remotely, leaving no residue. Three targets in black suits were encountered on the periphery. They released a disturbing ghost and escaped. The scene has been destroyed; a professional trace inspection is recommended. Additionally, a live streamer fainted; the police have been notified and taken away.

Not long after the message was sent, there was a reply in the group.

[Dispatcher - Old Wu]: Got it, thank you for your hard work! The trace detection and signal tracking teams are on their way! The target's signature and the ghost's signature have been recorded. Stay safe!

[Liu Lanzhen]: Sister Jiang was so cool in there just now. She stood in front of me when those evil spirits exploded.

[Liu Lanzhen]: You don’t understand the feeling at that moment at all, she was glowing!

After Liu Lanzhen sent this message, she said to Lin Hezhao next to her, "Our department has really got a big shot. You didn't know it just now, but Sister Jiang gave me a pack of paper, and then I could see those ghosts."

Lin Hezhao: I'm tired of saying the word "envy".

Jiang Chuxu didn't pay attention to the whispers of the people around her. Anyway, she left the trace inspection to professionals and was too lazy to worry about it.

What she was more concerned about now was what the K organization was doing here. What use were those faceless ghosts to K? And what were those black suits holding?

Not long after, several black vans without any markings stopped quietly near the hospital, and a group of people in plain clothes but with capable movements and carrying various sophisticated instruments got out of the vans.

The middle-aged woman in the lead communicated with Xu Zhaojin and then ordered her men to act separately.

One team headed straight for the third floor of the hospital, while the other team quickly dispersed and headed in the direction where the three men in black suits were escaping, with frighteningly high efficiency.

Jiang Chuxu and others, as the first eyewitnesses at the scene, took the initiative to stay and cooperate.

As time passed, Brother Tietou was taken away by the police officer who rushed over.

Lin Hezhao was still feeling sorry for his jacket, while Liu Lanzhen and Xu Zhaojin were compiling the report on this mission.

Only Jiang Chuxu and Xiao Hei were the most leisurely, one eating candy and the other taking a nap.

About two hours later, the person in charge of the trace inspection came over with a tablet in her hand, her expression serious but with a hint of excitement.

"We didn't find many clues at the scene, but we did find something from the live broadcast replays of several anchors who had been here before. We increased the background sound and can barely hear the voices talking."

As she spoke, she clicked on the audio, and the first voice that appeared was a male voice.

"Clearance complete, data transmitted back to Chaoxue, cargo inspected, stable, ready for transfer."

Then a female voice came.

"Well, hurry up. The power of the amulet is almost exhausted. It can't suppress those defective products for too long. Don't mess it up like last time."

Male voice: "I see. Is the amulet I chose this time effective? The master said..."

Then the sound of electric current gradually increased, and only a few words could be vaguely heard: blessing, backlash, and be careful.

The sound stopped abruptly.

"A Buddha amulet?"

They looked at each other and instantly understood the main source of power of this organization.

Jiang Chuxu thought of the Buddha amulet he had dug up in the hotel before. It seemed that this force was deeply involved with the outside world.

The clues have come to an end for the time being, and what remains is the screening work of finding a needle in a haystack. Although Jiang Chuxu and others are holding back their efforts, they also know that there is no rush.

Jiang Chuxu stood up, patted the dust off his pants, and then said, "Let's go back to sleep and get enough rest before they show up again."

Perhaps because she had expended too much energy in the hospital, Jiang Chuxu didn't wake up until after ten o'clock the next day. Xiao Hei had already been lying beside her pillow, meowing when he saw her wake up.

Jiang Chuxu didn't care about anything else. He first prepared some cat food for Xiao Hei and then washed up.

She took the time to check her live streaming platform account. She hadn't live streamed for a day, and many people were urging her to continue.

Jiang Chuxu just felt that she had rested enough, so she started the live broadcast as usual.

[Good morning, anchor. I missed you so much after not seeing you for a day.]

[Can the anchor connect today?]

[Please connect! My dog has been barking at the air lately]

Jiang Chuxu ignored the barrage of comments and directly clicked on an ID that was waiting in line: "I'm panicking at midnight, are you there?"

Midnight Panic seemed to have been waiting to connect to him. As soon as Jiang Chuxu said his name, he sent a connection request.

The camera switched on, and a young man in his twenties appeared in the camera. He had messy hair, sunken eyes, and a face as pale as paper.

He held a laptop tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force, and his eyes were filled with extreme fear.

"Host... Host, help me!" His voice was hoarse and trembling. "I seem to be in big trouble!"

[This brother's face is uglier than a ghost]

[Feeling anxious at midnight? This ID is perfect for the occasion]

What's the matter? Let's hear what's the big trouble.

"Don't be impatient, take your time."

Midnight swallowed nervously and tried to organize his words: "My name is Chen Ming. A month ago, I accidentally clicked on a horror forum. There were some horror stories and supernatural photos in it, but there was one post that was very special. It was teaching people how to see ghosts..."
