Chapter 009: The Vengeful Spirit in Red (08)

The murderer, in an attempt to evade responsibility, speaks ambiguously and evasively, avoiding extreme measures, and we are unable to extract any key information; meanwhile, the victim waits eagerly for you to listen to her and save her

The moment he understood Xie Chi's meaning, he felt as if his worldview was on the verge of collapse

Xie Chi's gaze lingered for a moment

Xie Chi neatly folded the paper depicting the female ghost and tucked it into his shirt pocket, then stood up and said, "I will go nearby to ask passersby about the situation of this company"

Yan Jing couldn't help but exclaim, "What the hell? This is just too unbelievable! What kind of probability is this?"

In the afternoon, the female boss came by, and Xie Chi borrowed some money from her to pay off the numerous debts he had accumulated from various places the previous day

Xie Chi took out a lighter, ignited the candle purchased during the day, and walked over, illuminated by the flickering, dim candlelight, before sitting down on the sofa opposite Yan Jing

The moment the question was asked, he already had an answer in his heart

Yan Jingdao: "It's nothing serious, probably just a case of heatiness. After all, in horror films, during such hot weather, it could also be due to overindulgence or something like that. It's not that easy to get sick..."

A qualified PET1.0 will not spontaneously fall ill and cause any trouble for its owner; this is something that has been encoded in its genetic sequence since its inception, thus it is impossible for there to be any internal issues with its body

Are you the female ghost in the elevator

When he opened his eyes again, Xie Chi's pupils slightly constricted

Xie Chi gathered all the dice in the palm of his hand and gently said under the candlelight: "Are you here?"

Yan Jing was completely stunned, feeling that his mind was not functioning properly: "Brother Xie, if you don't ask the female boss, who else can you ask?"

Xie Chi searched for this company on the computer last night

The old man looked utterly bewildered

This time the response is still ... ... `` Yes ''

Yan Jing finally realized something and swallowed hard: "Sir, if I understand you correctly, the female boss was in her twenties when she arrived, and having stayed here for twenty years, she must be over forty now..."

Yan Jing stared wide-eyed: "The party involved? What does that mean? Are you referring to the female boss?"

Yan Jing could not see, he could only hear Xie Chi muttering to himself. Finally unable to contain his curiosity, he opened his yin-yang eyes, and the expression on his face instantly froze, nearly screaming out loud

The fifth floor was suddenly engulfed in a heavy darkness.

Moreover, Yan Jing hesitated to speak, saying, "Why do I feel that you prefer to be close to ghosts rather than to people? They are ghosts! Cold-blooded killers! Asking the female boss may be difficult, but it is certainly much safer than asking a ghost..."

Indeed, it is possible. Xie Chiwei curled the corner of his mouth and gathered all the dice back.

Indeed

Xie Chi calmly inquired, once again casting all the dice.

fifty

Xie Chi paused slightly in his steps, turning his head to give him a faint smile

The other dice are scattered on the edge of the table, and only three dice remain nearby, with the letters on them combining to form ... ... "Yes"

Do not make wild guesses; it might just be a simple case of a nosebleed

"There is really no need." Xie Chi chuckled lightly, "I prefer those who are taller than me, with a well-proportioned figure, a cooler personality, and sharp, defined features."

Xie Chi sat down on a chair to one side, and Yan Jing hurriedly approached: "Brother Xie, don't act recklessly, that's a ghost! How can you ensure that you uncover the truth without her killing you?"

She is present

The old man was just about to continue speaking when Xie Chi interjected, "Sir, how old do you think she was when she first arrived twenty years ago?"

In a murder case, there is a murderer, and of course, there is also..." Xie Chi smiled intriguingly, "the victim."

After negotiating for a while, the elderly man in a tank top completely opened up: "You know that young-looking female boss? She is from out of town, and nobody here knows her at all. I remember it was almost twenty years ago when she and her husband suddenly came here to buy land and build a big building. At that time, we thought she must have lost her mind to come to this remote place to start a company. And guess what happened next?"

Xie Chi got straight to the point: "Was it the female boss who killed you?" - "Yes"

Is the ghost infant your child? - Yes

It can only be the work of a horror film—due to certain plot requirements, he, as an actor, had a nosebleed

His silhouette as he walked into the building was exceptionally graceful and elegant

Xie Chi slightly nodded to express his gratitude and walked back with Yan Jing

Xie Chi seems to be deep in thought

Having chatted for a while, Xie Chidao was just about to head back when the old man suddenly grabbed him and warmly said, "Young man, you are really handsome, and you have a good temperament. Are you married? I can introduce someone to you! My second aunt's daughter..."

Xie Chi stared at this word for a while and smiled

If the female boss really killed the pregnant ghost, as a victim, I think. " Xie Chi paused for a moment and chuckled, "The female ghost would be very welcoming of us asking her to help, she would tell us what happened back then.

The female boss got married nearly twenty years ago and has a husband, yet she clearly looks to be in her early thirties. It is impossible for her to have gotten married at the age of eleven or twelve

Xie Chi had not said anything yet, but Yan Jing was already shaking his head repeatedly: "No, no! The app stated that one cannot attack a female boss who is pregnant!"

Xie Chi is speechless: "... ... Who said I was going to attack her?"

Xie Chi kindly reminded: "You just mentioned her company"

"Please refrain from speaking for a while," said Xie Chi as he took out from his pocket a set of dice he had engraved with letters. There were a total of 26 dice, each engraved with a letter from A to Z, with no repetitions.

The old man couldn't help but mutter behind his back: "This must be a man, right?"

There must be at least twenty of them! This is what I want to talk about next. That boss is simply... what is that word again? Oh right, reverse aging! When she first arrived, she was dark and plump, very stocky. But in less than a year, she transformed completely, looking young and radiant, even more beautiful than many female celebrities on television

Is it because of the curse? I saw him staring blankly at his index finger.

Xie Chi helplessly touched Yan Jing's head and said, "I didn't say I wanted to ask the female boss"

Yan Jing's expression was hard to describe: "Brother Xie, your ideal type..."

Xie Chi subtly furrowed his brows

Yan Jing followed Xie Chi back to the building: "Brother Xie, what should we do now? It seems that we can't get any information about the secrets from eighteen years ago by asking others..."

The old man was stunned

Yan Jing was stunned for two seconds: "What the hell! Brother Xie, are you going to ask a ghost?"

At exactly 10:00 PM, all the actors began their work for the next day. Having learned from Zhang Lan's lesson, they each returned to their respective floors to get to work, striving to finish early so they could gather together.

This kind of flag is clearly about to break, it is likely that there is a real illness, a visit to the hospital will provide a precise diagnosis

Xie Chi was too lazy to explain further: "You will know tonight."

Strange yet adorable

LIFT. lift, elevator

He asked this question, gently closing his eyes, and threw a handful of dice onto the table

Oh right! I just remembered, her luck is really good. At the beginning, when she started her company, she was quite troubled by the lack of funds. As a result, she casually bought a lottery ticket and won the grand prize, oh my goodness

The old man scratched his head and said, "Where was I just speaking?"

At this moment, the fifth floor

Beauty and youth? Prosperity and good fortune? Could this be the effect of sorcery?

It is still possible even at fifty! That is why I previously told my partner that it is quite miraculous for someone of her age to still be able to conceive

Xie Chi remained silent. After pulling down the curtain of the last window on the fifth floor, with a "thud," he turned off all the lights on the fifth floor

Xie Chi pondered for a few seconds and decided to set this matter aside for the time being, as it was not the focus at the moment; he needed to quickly investigate the events from eighteen years ago

Xie Chi lit a cigarette, took a puff, and casually said: "If others cannot ask, then just ask the person involved..."

Yan Jing was rendered speechless by the truth.

Zhongtu Xiechi went to buy twenty-six dice and a candle

The two individuals exited the company building, and just then, someone was jogging along the road. Xie Chi went over to stop them

Yan Jing sat on the sofa, puzzled, and asked: "Xie Ge, why did you pull down the curtains?"

All the conjectures were confirmed in that moment—the female ghost was killed by the female boss, and the child in her womb was cut out, becoming the ghostly infant that wanders in the building

There is no other information besides this

Although located in a remote area, this is indeed a well-capitalized publicly listed company. In recent years, the company has been thriving and developing at an astonishing pace. In addition to running this company, the female owner has also invested in many other industries, reaping substantial profits.

Yan Jing's thirst for knowledge is like a parched land seeking rain

"Xie Ge?" Yan Jing also realized that the atmosphere was somewhat off and tentatively called out.

Xie Chi helplessly said: "I am not foolish enough to run into the elevator to ask."

What is he trying to do

The ghostly infant stated that he died eighteen years ago, while this company was established just nineteen years ago. At the time of the infant's death, the company building should not have been completed yet

The little blind child has such a thick nerve that even a slight anomaly during filming could lead to serious consequences

The female ghost's corpse is at the bottom of the elevator, which is why she is trapped in the elevator and can only kill people within it

We would like to help you, are you willing to communicate with me?

Yan Jing was perplexed: "How can you extract information from her if you don't confront her? After all, it's a matter of murder. Just asking her, how could she possibly admit to it? If I had killed someone, I wouldn't admit it either, unless you tied me up and threatened me. But the app also stated that we shouldn't attack the female boss..."

Xie Chi fell silent for a few seconds and slowly said: "Where is your corpse..."

The old man felt a bit disappointed, yet he was quite fond of Xie Chi. He encouraged, "Young man, don't be in a hurry to refuse. Think it over again. My second aunt's daughter has a good figure and a pretty face, petite and delicate, with a lively personality. She will definitely get along well with you..."

Xie Chi's temples twitched twice, and he smiled as he said: "No need."

Could it be because of the curse

The familiar female ghost, with her hand, was manipulating the dice, arranging the appropriate letters to present the information that Xie Chi needed.
