Chapter 28 This is Him
"careful!"
Gu Yuan exclaimed, even though he couldn't control his body, he still shouted subconsciously.
Ji Yunzhou sighed: "He's really courting his own death."
He didn't even move, just glanced at the black mist.
The black fog seemed to be trapped in an invisible cage, frozen in mid-air, twisting madly but unable to move forward at all.
With a "puff" sound.
The human-shaped black mist was eaten away bit by bit by the flames of the talisman paper.
It emitted a shrill scream that made the dormitory windows buzz.
Lu Yi and Ji Chen covered their ears with bitter expressions.
"It's so noisy."
Ji Yunzhou frowned and pointed his finger, and the shrieking sound stopped abruptly.
The black fog in the air has been completely purified, leaving no trace, as if it had never existed.
"That's settled."
"Gu Yuan" said in a nonchalant tone, brushing off the non-existent dust: "There is another one."
When Lu Yi heard this, his heart tightened and his eyes immediately turned to the tightly closed wooden door of the dormitory.
Under the crack of the door, the cold and gloomy aura still lingered.
The ghost that was just eliminated was not Senior Mo Lin...
That only means that the one who is still wandering outside the door is the real Morin.
"A mere earthbound spirit is not even worthy of filling the gaps between my teeth."
Ji Yunzhou sneered, the contempt in his tone almost overflowing: "It's just a snap of the fingers."
He didn't even raise his hand, just moved his mind slightly.
The next second, a translucent, pale figure was dragged into the dormitory!
It was Maureen's ghost!
At this moment, an invisible hand grabbed the ghost's neck tightly and lifted it off the ground.
It struggled, and its negative energy scattered everywhere, but it was unable to shake the absolute suppression of power.
The soul is rapidly weakening.
"etc!"
Gu Yuan shouted anxiously in his sea of consciousness:
"He seems to... have something to say? He doesn't look like a pure evil spirit!"
Ji Yunzhou paused.
Finally, he made an impatient "tsk".
The invisible hand suddenly loosened.
Maureen's ghost fell to the ground. Although it had no real weight as a spirit, it curled up there, its soul flickering, appearing extremely weak and... sad.
It raised its head, its pupilless white eyes focused on Gu Yuan with difficulty, and it squeezed out broken syllables with all its strength:
"sorry……"
In the corner, Ji Chen was completely frightened and grabbed Lu Yi's arm tightly.
Gu Yuan's temperament suddenly changed. He killed the evil ghost with a wave of his hand, and now he grabbed another ghost like a chicken.
The amount of information was so huge that it overwhelmed his worldview.
"What on earth is going on?" He asked in a trembling voice, relying on his last bit of courage.
Ji Yunzhou controlled Gu Yuan's body, glanced at him lazily, and said lightly:
"It's your senior Mo Lin who jumped off the building. The reason it's been haunting you guys isn't because it has any ill intentions towards you, it's purely because of you guys."
He glanced at Li Yang and Ji Chen. "It has weak yang energy, a pure mind, and a bit of... 'conspicuous' physique. It hopes you can notice it and help it fulfill its wish and clear its name."
The ghost of Morin, curled up on the ground, nodded, and his white eyes seemed to reveal pleading and recognition.
"B-But how can we help?"
Jichen asked in shock, his brain still unable to process the information: "We are just ordinary students!"
"Why not just ask it directly what it needs?"
This time it was Gu Yuan who took back control of his body, and his voice returned to its usual tone, but with a hint of fatigue and solemnity.
He looked at the weakened ghost on the ground and sighed, "Its obsession is so deep that it's almost become one with this building. I guess... we're probably not the first people to be haunted by it. It's just that the people before us either didn't notice it, were scared away, or... simply didn't have the ability to care."
In his sea of consciousness, Ji Yunzhou let out another dissatisfied "tsk".
trouble.
There was a brief silence in the dormitory.
It turns out that this horrific experience was not an unprovoked disaster. Behind it was actually a wrongful murder and a ghost's desperate plea for help for years.
"So... what should we do now?"
Lu Yi asked, relaxing his tense muscles slightly.
Since the ghost wasn't harboring purely malicious intent, it seemed much less threatening.
Gu Yuan looked at the ghost of Mo Lin, which was gradually re-forming on the ground, and said in a firm tone:
"Take us to find evidence. If those rumors and what you experienced are true..."
He paused, his voice sinking: "That Zhang Yifei must pay the price he deserves."
The three words "Zhang Yifei" were like a key, instantly triggering the deepest pain and hatred in Morin's ghost!
The yin energy that had calmed down a bit suddenly erupted, and a bone-chilling chill swept through the entire dormitory. The lights flickered wildly again, and even a thin layer of white frost condensed on the walls.
It let out a low, bestial whimper, which was filled with immense resentment and unwillingness.
Then, it turned and floated straight towards the closed dormitory door.
This time, it is no longer a threat, but a guide.
Before penetrating the door panel, its figure paused for a moment, turned slightly towards Gu Yuan, lowered its translucent head slightly, made a bow-like gesture, and then completely passed through the door.
"Wait! It, it ran away!" Jichen shouted in shock.
"rest assured."
Gu Yuan soothed him, pointing to his solar plexus: "It was... uh, 'him' who marked it. It can't run far. I can sense its direction and emotions."
He said, taking the initiative to walk towards the door.
"Wait, you're just going out like this?"
Lu Yi hurriedly stopped him, his face full of worry: "It may not be safe outside, and you just..."
He hesitated to speak, obviously filled with doubts and shock at Gu Yuan's completely different behavior and those unimaginable methods.
Gu Yuan stopped, took a deep breath, and decided to confess part of the story.
Use a reason that is most understandable to ordinary people:
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
He pointed to his head. "Actually... I have some mental... well, minor issues. The 'powerful me' you just saw can be considered my alter ego. He has a bad temper, but... with him around, we're actually safer."
Lu Yi widened his eyes and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end it just turned into an extremely complicated look.
Gu Yuan said no more, opened the dormitory door, and stepped into the dim and ominous darkness of the corridor.
Lu Yi has begun to doubt him, so it would be better for him to explain it frankly to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Lu Yi and Ji Chen looked at each other, and at the same time looked at Li Yang who was lying unconscious on the ground.
Suddenly I felt that staying in the dormitory was not a safe option.
The lights in the corridor flickered, and the air was filled with stale dust and a faint smell of blood.
Ji Yunzhou Dinghao controlled Gu Yuan's body.
He walked leisurely, as if he was not tracking a group of evil spirits in a haunted dormitory building, but taking a walk in his own backyard.
"Can you be serious?"
Gu Yuan complained in his mind: "This is my body. If I break it, I won't be able to replace it!"
"Don't worry, I'm here, your body won't be damaged."
Ji Yunzhou answered nonchalantly, his eyes following the traces of marks in the air that only he could see.
Morin's ghost was floating not far ahead, sometimes condensing into shape, sometimes dispersing like smoke, guiding the direction.
It finally stopped in front of a door and hovered there.
"Room 414."
Ji Yunzhou read out the door number: "It seems this is the dormitory where Mo Lin lived before he died."
Maureen spun excitedly in front of the door, seemingly eager to get in but unable to penetrate the door panel.
There was a talisman on the door, emitting faint energy fluctuations.
"Oh? That's interesting."
Ji Yunzhou looked at the spell with interest:
"A talisman to ward off evil spirits and suppress spirits. It's a high-end product. It seems someone doesn't want Mo Lin's affairs to be thoroughly investigated."
He reached out and easily tore off the talisman, which turned to ashes at his fingertips.
"You think you can stop me with this little trick?"
The door opened in response, as if it had been waiting for someone to actually want to enter.
Room 414 was in a mess, obviously no one had lived there for many years.
Dust covered everything, and the air was filled with the smell of mold and some indescribable smell of corruption.
After entering the room, Maureen went straight to the old desk in the corner and lingered in front of one of the drawers.
Ji Yunzhou walked over and easily opened the locked drawer.
In addition to some ordinary stationery and old books, there was also a notebook that looked very old.
"Diary?" Gu Yuan guessed.
