"Miss Zeng Rou, are you alright?"
This is a familiar boy, a little soft, a little gentle, and very magnetic.
The moment you hear his voice, you seem to see a handsome, well-mannered young man with eyes full of concern.
Zeng Rou was already used to this kind of voice, but this more natural timbre still reminded her of something—
Ah, it's the police officer who received her when she went to the police station to report the crime!
"Thank goodness, it's you! It's so good that it's you!" Zeng Rou breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, no matter who called, as long as it wasn't that eerie and terrifying voice, she found the other person's voice as melodious and pleasant as heavenly music.
On the next flight of stairs above Zeng Rou, Fang Zong's expression suddenly turned strange.
"You know clone-type spells?" Fang Zong turned his head and looked at Li Muyun, whose hands were covered with various talismans.
The person who received Zeng Rou was Li Muyun, not a real police officer. However, Zeng Rou said that it was Li Muyun who called her. He had very sensitive ears and could hear that the voice on Zeng Rou's phone was Li Muyun's.
Li Muyun's face turned ashen; being impersonated made him feel extremely offended.
He was running around doing all sorts of things for Fang Zong, but who was Fang Zong? A thug in a suit! The number one young talent in the Eastern Kingdom! A peerless powerhouse who had just been nominated by Elder Wang to be the number one on the Eastern Kingdom's Tiger List!
Moreover, there are rumors that Old Wang has already designated Fang Zong as his successor within the Ghost Killing Team!
What does this mean?
Even if it's Wang Lao's godson, Wang Zhian, who has worked diligently for twenty years and made countless contributions, he is only temporarily designated as the next leader of the Ghost Killing Team in charge of external affairs.
The internal successor remains silent, while the leader in charge of external affairs wields considerable power.
But if the internal successor speaks up, the leader in charge of external affairs is a complete scoundrel!
Perhaps before long, Fang Zong will have military power in his hands and the world at his command!
"That damned ghost dares to impersonate me! I am, after all, the president of the Alchemist Association!"
Li Muyun gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know what tricks the ghost is playing, but I feel that it is intensifying Zeng Rou's fear. Lord Thug, should I humbly take action?"
"You are no match for the Yinshan Ghost King."
Fang Zong shook his head with a smile, tugged at Hu Batian's tail, and told Hu Batian to hide the two of them and the cat.
Hu Batian was quite capable; his ability to conceal himself alone was enough to make Hu Batian envious, and he had even considered it—
If that damn cat keeps being so sarcastic, once he's able to touch a monster, I'll pluck his fur!
Downstairs, Zeng Rou relaxed considerably. As she walked down with the two police officers, she said, "Thank you for your concern, officers. Also... notify the Ghost Killing Team! Your two men said this is not a case they can handle!"
"Huh? Miss Zeng Rou, what are you saying?"
The person on the other end of the phone exclaimed in surprise, "I didn't send anyone to your place! This afternoon, I was planning to lead a team myself. These kinds of cyberbullying cases are very serious. I brought quite a few people to go there, but then I suddenly received your call saying everything was fine, it was all a misunderstanding. Wait, you..."
With a 'click,' the call was abruptly disconnected.
Zeng Rou didn't know why the call suddenly dropped. Perhaps it was because they were at the bottom of the building and the signal was bad, or perhaps the police officer had an accident, like burning his mouth while drinking water.
She couldn't care less about anything else; a fear as cold as an iceberg gripped her heart, and tears streamed down her face.
She stood still, unable to move, and the 'policeman' walking in front of her also stopped, without turning around to look at her.
Zeng Rou slowly turned her stiff neck backward, then suddenly let out a strange scream and fell to the ground...
The policeman behind her, whom she thought was her savior, had an unusual bluish-gray face that looked particularly ferocious. The two 'policemen' took a step and floated in front of Zeng Rou, chuckling strangely.
"You're not police officers! Who are you?!"
Zeng Rou cried out as if she were about to cry.
The fear spread deeper, but within it, a sense of mockery and frustration brought forth a surge of anger, giving Zeng Rou strength.
She suddenly stood up, her figure as swift as lightning, and darted down the stairs.
escape!
escape!
escape!
Zeng Rou had only one thought in her mind, completely unaware that her speed far exceeded her previous limit by more than ten times.
The two 'police officers' were not in a hurry to give chase. They exchanged a glance, gave each other a strange smile, and then started laughing, which grew louder and louder.
"Miss Zeng Rou, we've come to pick you up."
"If the King of Hell wants you to die at midnight, who dares to keep you alive until dawn? Miss Zeng Rou, don't resist."
“Miss Zeng Rou, no, I should say Fairy Qingxia... The two intertwined wicks before the ancient Buddha, your identity is sufficient.”
"Please accept your confession of life and death. You have only thirty seconds left to live."
"Thirty, twenty-nine, twenty-eight..."
The two 'police officers' started counting, and Zeng Rou recognized their voices as the phone calls she had heard at night.
But there was no time to worry about that; we had to escape!
Zeng Rou kept flipping down the stairs, one step at a time, crossing more than ten floors in five seconds, but downstairs was still the same staircase, with constant twists and turns, an unchanging staircase!
She suddenly stopped and looked at the floor number—
Eighteen floors!
The eighteenth floor!
She started from the sixth floor and ran down, not knowing how many floors she ran, but ended up on the eighteenth floor.
She thought of the eighteen levels of hell.
