Chapter Eighty-Eight: A Thick Fog of Ghosts



He only felt someone tug at him from behind, and then he was standing two meters away.

"Giggle giggle..."

"Sister, wouldn't it be better if we split it up? I want his head, and you take his heart."

"No! He's mine! Die!" Li Zhiyi attacked the female ghost, and the two began to fight.

The speed was so fast that Jiang Yu was dazzled and couldn't see how it was done. He only felt a dark shadow floating around above his head.

At that moment, he completely believed that ghosts existed in the world; it wasn't just a rumor, it was real. Finally, the imposter female ghost was killed and vanished without a trace.

The battle was finally over, and Li Zhiyi returned to stand beside Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu subconsciously looked down at her feet and saw that she had a shadow.

"What was that just now?"

“Just a kid, nothing special. Let’s go find Xiao Zhang,” Li Zhiyi said to Jiang Yu.

"You found Xiao Zhang? Where is Xiao Zhang?"

"He's on the 24th floor, let's hurry up, he must be scared by himself," Li Zhi urged Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu was a little puzzled. She had finally found Xiao Zhang, so why didn't Xiao Zhang come down with her? Why did he insist on waiting for everyone to go upstairs to find him? The elevator here had been broken and out of service for a long time, and climbing these twenty-odd floors wasn't easy.

Jiang Yu looked at Li Zhiyi, who didn't speak but continued walking upstairs. He then noticed that her gold hairpin was missing and asked, "Zhiyi, where is your gold hairpin?"

"Yeah, it's lost. Never mind it, let's go."

Jiang Yu didn't ask any more questions and silently followed Li Zhiyi upstairs. After finally reaching the twenty-fourth floor, although Jiang Yu was in good physical condition, he was still a little out of breath after climbing so many floors.

Li Zhiyi pushed open the door to a room, and Jiang Yu followed him in, but Xiao Zhang wasn't there: "Where's Xiao Zhang? Isn't he in this room?"

"Okay, sit down first, I'll go call him out."

Jiang Yu was even more puzzled. "Which room is Xiao Zhang in? Let's go together."

"No need! I'll go myself." Li Zhiyi turned and glanced at Jiang Yu, his gaze somewhat cold, his tone firm.

Jiang Yu felt that something was off about her. Was she in a bad mood? "Zhiyi, are you unhappy?" Because she had never spoken to him like this before.

"No, wait here." Li Zhiyi turned and left the room, leaving Jiang Yu alone inside.

About two minutes later, Xiao Zhang came over and started crying as soon as he saw Jiang Yu: "Captain, you finally found me! This place was so scary, it really frightened me to death."

"Okay, everything's alright now, let's go downstairs."

"Captain, I'm scared."

"It's alright, wasn't I with you? Where's Miss Li?" How come Xiao Zhang came out but Li Zhizhi is nowhere to be seen? That's strange.

At this moment, Li Zhiyi came out and said, "Let's go downstairs."

Li Zhiyi walked ahead, but when they reached the corner of the stairs, Jiang Yu noticed something was wrong. The flashlight in his hand emitted a faint yellow light, which shone directly onto the floor. Following this faint light, he realized that the corridor was different from when he first arrived; it seemed to be a bottomless black hole ahead.

He'd walked through this building several times today, but he'd never seen this corridor before.

Where is this?

"Hey boss, isn't this the twenty-third floor? Why are you dizzy?" Xiao Zhang said.

Jiang Yu said decisively, "No, this floor isn't like this. The walls aren't red at all. Where is this?" He had just walked past it and couldn't possibly be mistaken.

At this moment, Jiang Yu smelled a bloody odor, like the smell of fresh blood. He immediately became alert and distanced himself from the two.

Xiao Zhang glanced at Li Zhizhi, then turned to Jiang Yu and smiled, "Captain, you must be terrified. It's always been like this here. If you don't believe me, ask Miss Li."

Jiang Yu turned his gaze to Li Zhiyi, and finally realized something was wrong. "You're not Li Zhiyi, so who are you?"

"Jiang Yu, I am Li Zhiyi."

Jiang Yu trusted his intuition. Judging from everything that had just happened, he was being misled by a ghost. If the first Li was fake, then the second one might also be fake.

Li Zhizhi said angrily, "Are you doubting me?"

No matter what she said, Jiang Yu refused to go near her. Instead, he prepared to defend himself or run away. Although he knew that this female ghost was very powerful, he could not sit idly by and wait to die!

At this moment, Xiao Zhang also changed his demeanor and said impatiently, "Boss, I told you this guy isn't easy to fool. Let's just use force."

"Shut up! If we don't catch him today, we'll both be punished."

Xiao Zhang was furious. In an instant, his face changed color, and a bluish-gray face appeared in front of Jiang Yu. His eyes were sunken into their sockets, and he looked like a dead man with panda eyes.

The fake Li Zhiyi reached out to grab Jiang Yu, but Jiang Yu dodged by bending over and took out a pistol. This pistol had killed several desperate criminals and was considered to carry a menacing aura!

The female ghost paused for a moment when she saw his pistol. She was very fast and quickly moved behind Jiang Yu, intending to hit him on the back of the head. Jiang Yu rolled on the ground and dodged. At this moment, Xiao Zhang also walked towards him, obviously wanting to join the fight.

"Jiang Yu".

Li Zhi called to him from behind, but he dared not turn around because he was unsure whether it was a person or a ghost behind him. He moved to stand in the corner so that he would not be afraid of being attacked from behind by a ghost.

In an instant, a cold wind suddenly arose, making the windows rattle loudly. The wind grew stronger and stronger, until Jiang Yu couldn't even open his eyes.

Clearly, the two ghosts hadn't expected Li Zhiyi to find them so quickly. Knowing they couldn't win, they turned to run away.

Li Zhi threw out a talisman, which flew faster than the two wandering ghosts, landing directly on one of them. "Ah! It hurts so much!" the male ghost cried out in pain.

The female ghost's magic was clearly stronger than his, and she broke free from the talisman's restraints, engaging in a fierce battle with Li Zhiyi. Li Zhiyi chanted incantations, and talismans flew wildly in the sky, many of which clung to the female ghost's body, causing smoke to billow from her.

The fake Xiao Zhang was lying on the ground, devoid of any ghostly aura, and finally turned into a wisp of white smoke, vanishing into nothingness.

Li Zhi grabbed the female ghost with his bare hands, gripped her chin tightly, and angrily said, "You think you can impersonate me? You're courting death." With that, he flung the female ghost to the ground.
