Love Scene: Evidence Not Allowed to Become Sentient

Yu Yao is a detective who firmly believes in materialism, and she trusts supernatural things the least.

Yet, ever since she was little, she could hear strange things.

At the crime scene...

Chapter 41

The flashlight swept across the entire silent and dark underground warehouse. The man stood quietly without moving, as if trying to observe all the sounds in the underground warehouse.

The two people in the cabinet also held their breath and looked out through the narrow gap without moving.

Judging from his figure, he was probably a man. The cold light reflected on his profile. He looked to be around forty or fifty years old. He was staring silently at the dust on the ground, and his eyes followed the traces slowly towards the cabinet.

The two people in the closet froze, listening to the footsteps outside slowly approaching them.

Bai Fang slowly reached out for the cabinet door. As soon as she was discovered by the other party, she would give priority to knocking him out and escaping. In short, she had to take Yu Yao and the recorder upstairs first.

The man stood in front of the cabinet with a flashlight in his hand. However, because the cabinet was mostly blocked by other equipment and was not easily noticed, he did not notice the cabinet immediately. Instead, he shone the flashlight around and searched.

But there is only one place to hide here, and it is only a matter of time before we are discovered.

Bai Fang tensed up and was ready to go out at any time.

The light swept across the cabinet, then suddenly turned back and fell on the cabinet. The man outside had already noticed the cabinet. He took two steps forward and reached out to try to open the cabinet door. As the hand slowly stretched out, Bai Fang inside was also prepared.

But just when the hand was about to touch the cabinet, there was a sudden sound from the elevator. Almost at the same time, Yu Yao felt a damp chill rapidly spreading throughout the entire space, and a bad premonition came to her mind.

From the sound, I could tell the elevator was slowly going up.

This means that there are people coming down from above.

The man outside also noticed this, shifted his attention away from the cabinet, and then slowly walked towards the elevator.

The other party left the cabinet. The sound of footsteps and the elevator covered the sound. Yu Yao gently touched the cabinet, lowered her voice to the lowest point, and asked, "What is he doing now?"

The objects that heard the noise immediately informed Yu Yao of the situation outside. "He's standing next to the elevator, holding something against the wall. He seems to be preparing to attack anyone who comes out of the elevator."

Sneak attack?

Yu Yao thought about it.

As soon as they arrived to check, someone came to check vigilantly. This shows that this person attaches great importance to this area and has been keeping a close watch on it. Most of the people who can come here are probably related to the female ghost in Yelai River. Since they found out that someone was going to come down to check their secrets, why not just wipe out the people who fell down?

But at this time, there will be other people coming here. Aren’t they their own people?

If not...

The feeling of cold and dampness in the entire space became stronger and stronger, and even carried with it a fierce hatred that filled the entire space. Even the equipment around them became inexplicably quiet, and no one dared to speak.

The people here had just finished reporting the situation when the elevator door opened with a ding.

Yu Yao was a little nervous and swallowed. She was really afraid that it was Liang Yubai and the others who came.

But after the elevator door opened, no sound of anyone coming was heard, but instead a slight groan from the man was heard.

"Well...it is true..." There was a burst of doubtful voices from the objects outside, and everyone was whispering in a low voice.

"That...that thing...it's a doll, right?"

"The doll can't possibly move. Inside it..."

"It must be... the person who died here at that time."

The noises of the objects became lower and lower, as if they were suppressed by something, and finally became very quiet, not daring to make any sound at all.

A chill crept up Yu Yao's spine. This familiar, heart-pounding feeling of fear undoubtedly came from the female ghost in Yelai River.

Is it really Liang Yubai?

Yu Yao paused and quickly got out of the cabinet. Turning back, she saw that the elevator door was open. The light from the elevator slanted out, illuminating the area around the entrance and exit. She saw the doll Liang Yubai had bought standing at the elevator door, tightly grasping the man's throat with one hand and pressing him against the wall. Liang Yubai was nowhere to be seen in the elevator behind her.

"Wait a minute! Wait a minute!" Yu Yao hurried over and tried to pull the puppet's hand away, but the other's arm did not move at all.

"Get out of the way!" A low, hoarse voice emanated from the puppet's body, filled with hatred. "I felt it. I felt him coming right away."

"That's the guy! That's him!!" The ghost girl's voice rang out in great resentment from the puppet. "I felt it the moment he came down. He's one of the people who killed me!"

"I know, I know." Yu Yao nodded, pulling at her arm, "But you can't kill him here, it will cause a lot of trouble."

"Of course he will get his retribution, but if you kill him here, it will cause trouble for us. One life will be lost, and no one involved in this matter will escape. You are a ghost, you can just kill him and run away, but we who helped you find him will be responsible for this life!" Yu Yao tried hard to explain, but the puppet had no intention of letting go. It stared at the man, and was already overwhelmed by resentment.

The man who was strangled turned blue in the face. He kept struggling while grabbing her hand, but couldn't break free.

"Yu Yao, get out of the way!" Bai Fang picked up a small amusement facility from the abandoned amusement equipment and threw it towards the doll. With a clang, the doll was instantly knocked to the ground, and the man also fell to the ground.

After all, the moving body is still a puppet. Once the carrier is destroyed, it will immediately become unable to move.

"I have been looking for him for decades!! I have been looking for them for decades!! I want revenge!! I want to kill them!" The resentful voice of the female ghost floated in the silent and dark underground warehouse. It was so resentful that it made people shudder. Nothing in the underground dared to make a sound.

"I know, I know." The damaged doll still had the seal left by Liang Yubai on it. She couldn't get out of it immediately, but she was obviously struggling with resentment. Yu Yao tried hard to reason with her before she came out.

"Think about our situation. We are helping you solve the problem. If you kill him right here, you will never find the others."

But it turned out that it was useless to reason with a ghost that had lost its mind. The resentment and hatred that had been in Yelai River for decades burst out in an instant, and there was almost no possibility of dialogue.

"Don't stay down here for now. Leave once you get something useful." Bai Fang reminded, picked up the unconscious man, pulled Yu Yao, and dragged the broken doll into the elevator.

"Contact Liang Yubai. This female ghost came here alone. Liang Yubai wouldn't let her come here alone. Most likely something happened."

Yu Yao suddenly woke up and immediately took out her cell phone to contact Liang Yubai.

"No one answered." Yu Yao glanced at Bai Fang with her phone, then looked at the tattered doll on the ground. She felt like she was about to burst out of this body. "What should I do? If she moves like this, it will scare the people outside, right?"

Bai Fang thought silently for a moment, "Either find Liang Yubai first, or leave her here and take the man away."

"Her target is this man."

Yu Yao was silent, then raised her head, "But she will come after me, right?"

Bai Fang lowered his eyes and glanced at the broken doll shaking on the ground. "Then throw her into the Yelai River. She can't leave there."

Yu Yao nodded. This was the only way.

As soon as the elevator door opened, Bai Fang carried the man out of the warehouse, and Yu Yao dragged the broken doll behind him and walked towards Yelai River.

Along the way, the two of them attracted a lot of attention. One was carrying a man, and the other was dragging a puppet. When they arrived at Yelai River, even the staff were frightened by them and froze there. It took them a long time to react before they caught up with them, shouting, "Wait, what are you two doing? You haven't bought your tickets yet?"

Just as he finished speaking, he saw Yu Yao grabbing the doll and throwing her into the Yelai River with a splash.

"No... why are you throwing things into the lake?! What are you two doing! Guard! Guard!!" The staff member was a little scared and started yelling for people to come. Before he could shout twice, Bai Fang blocked his way.

"Do you know this person?" Bai Fang put the man he was carrying down and brought him in front of him.

"Isn't this the headmaster?! How could this happen?! Oh my God, call an ambulance, his face is all blue and purple." The staff screamed and hurriedly made a phone call. Several people dragged the man to the hospital. In the chaos, no one had time to care about Yu Yao and Bai Fang.

Yu Yao stood by the Yelai River and looked down, staring at the rippling water for a while. She did not see any ripples in the Yelai River, nor did she feel the breath of the female ghost.

The man was taken away by ambulance, but she was still very uneasy. The female ghost was silent and there was no news from Liang Yubai, so she went down to an underground warehouse, and the situation suddenly changed.

"We still can't contact Liang Yubai?" Bai Fang came over and asked.

Yu Yao nodded and glanced at her phone. "Liang Yubai always has a lot of bodyguards around her. She doesn't get into accidents that easily. I guess something special happened."

"Let's go back and check the recorder first." Bai Fang glanced at the calm lake. "I don't know where Liang Yubai has gone. Even if we report the crime, we have to wait 24 hours. In the meantime, let's deal with the ghost girl first."

"Okay." Yu Yao nodded, turned around and followed Bai Fang back. She had to go back and check the contents of the recorder first.

As she walked, she felt an itch in the palm of her hand, as if something was stuck on it. She opened her palm and saw that it was a heart-shaped sticker, the logo of the amusement park.

She turned over her hand and found that hers was still stuck.

"Does that recorder use batteries or a charging port?" Bai Fang turned around and asked.

"Oh... let me see." Yu Yao came back to her senses, took out the recorder from her pocket, and looked at it carefully. "It looks like a battery."

"Okay, buy some batteries on your way back, and then come to my place."

"Okay!" Yu Yao nodded, took the sticker off her hand and put it in her pocket, and left Yelai River with Bai Fang.

Probably because it was daytime, the female ghost couldn't wander around outside once she left the doll's body. Even if she wanted to do something, she had to wait until night. During this period, Yu Yao had to find a way to deal with the female ghost, otherwise, if she went crazy, no one would be able to stop her.

On the way back, the two bought the same model of batteries and then went to Bai Fang's house.

As soon as he entered the house, Bai Fang rummaged through the clothes, picked up Yu Yao and threw her into the bathroom.

The two men were looking for a recorder in the dust of the underground warehouse. They rolled around on the ground and were covered in dirt. On their way back, the two men attracted a lot of attention with their dusty faces.

"Wash yourself. I left your clothes outside." Bai Fang reminded outside the bathroom.

"Okay." Yu Yao responded, jumping twice on the spot, and then falling to the ground in dust.

Bai Fang turned around and went to the living room to wipe the dust off the recorder. At the same time, he turned on the computer and tried to check the information about the manager of Yelai River Park. Judging from the female ghost's reaction, the management of Yelai River was probably related to her death.
