468 Corpse Field (2)

sappeared, a knock came from the safety passage behind me: "Open up, who's in there Are you dead"This voice sounds familiar... I hurriedly opened the door and took a look —The man outside was wearing...I couldn't help but glance back at the back door. On the doorframe there was a pair of black bells.

It wasn't a real door, more like an ornamental piece on the frame.

But that shape felt very familiar to me, similar to a pair of bells for warding off corpses and calming souls that I once returned to Long Xiaogē.

But what does black signify

I looked at my brother. He weighed the drink in his hand and asked the cashier, "Are you really not taking any money"

The little boy shrank back in fright and shook his head vigorously.

"Don't just give up, it's so strange..." My brother sneered and pulled me along as we continued to leave through the back door.

"That's it I asked, Lin Yanqin and Aunt Lin were still waiting not far away.

"Well, it's getting dark. I'll come back before closing time... How do you know there's a set closing time" my brother asked curiously.

I purse my lips: “Because this place is haunted, and the ghosts here are special. They seem to be floating around in this building, constantly increasing the number of dead people, but I don't feel an overwhelming presence of ghostly energy.”

"So the fact that we’re still around means that the marketplace probably has a rule that everyone has to close up and leave before dark, right"

My brother said he was going to stay and watch. Aunt Lin told my brother the password for the mall's emergency exit and urged him to do what he could.

"Little Brother Mu, if you get hurt because of this, Yan Qin will definitely blame me. So you should protect yourself and don't be reckless. At worst, I'll sell this business center at a low price. Losing a few billion won't matter. I'm already so stressed out, it's giving me wrinkles that billions can't buy back." Aunt Lin pouted and left with her driver first.

My brother looked at Aunt Lin's "majestic" back and twitched his lips: "I believe she didn't mean to show off her wealth. She really thinks that a few hundred million is not as important as the wrinkles on her face! It's the most lethal kind of invisible bragging!"

I chuckled softly. The Lin family truly were born with a silver spoon in their mouths. I looked at Lin Yanqin: "Yanqin, you don't have to come with us. My brother and I are going to interact with some ghosts later. You should go back first."

"Eh! I can't stay ! This is my first time getting this close! I never knew Auntie's business was like this. If I had known, I would have…" She trailed off, her voice getting quieter and quieter.

Because my brother was staring at her with narrowed eyes.

"What's up" my brother chuckled.

Lin Yanqin swallowed hard, not daring to say anything more.

"Don't mess around here. The ghosts here have all killed people. If you're here, my brother will definitely get distracted, and you don't want him to have an accident, do you"

Lin Yanqin nodded, glanced at my brother, and whispered, "Then I'll wait for you across the street, okay After you finish your business, I can give you a ride back home."

She looked at my brother with a hint of pleading in her eyes. She really wants to go on an adventure with him, doesn't she Too bad he won't let her.

My brother tilted his head and thought for a moment: “Alright, that square across the street, you wait in the car, don’t get out! If you listen…”

Lin Yanqin looked at him, waiting for his next words.

My brother smirked, "If you're a good girl, after I'm done with this little cutie here, we'll go on a date."

This is the first time I've been invited on a date!

Lin Yanqin's eyes widened, her sparkling gaze couldn't hide her excitement: "Good! Good! Deal! Hehe, I'll wait for you in the car! Be careful!"

She hurried away with the bodyguard, and I looked at my brother: "You're such a bully! Just one date invitation made Lin Yanqin so excited. How bad are you to her normally"

“You know nothing! This is called emotional intelligence! You understand the art of being a good wife, don't you!”

>

"Wife"

"......I guess so." My brother said gruffly.

"Alright, alright, it's not bad. I see hope... If you really never get married, Dad will have his hair turn white with worry..." I quickly shut myself up.

Everything should be done in moderation, and I must never embarrass my brother. Since this idea has taken root in his mind, it needs to be carefully nurtured and not ridiculed.

But Lin Yanqin is really amazing... Although she's innocent, she has high emotional intelligence, can endure things, and has a natural touch of pride. Plus, she's very devoted to my brother.

When they are together privately, they should get along well, or my brother wouldn't be paying her more and more attention.

This business plaza starts clearing out at 5:00 PM, and the security patrols half an hour later to make sure no one is left inside.

But even the security guards here had heard those rumors and were a little afraid, too scared to check every nook and cranny carefully.

My brother and I were hiding in a secluded stall in the restroom.

This dank and filthy place was most likely to attract ghosts, yet here we were, crammed into a cubicle, hiding from the security patrols.

"...This is the ladies' restroom."

"There's no other way. The security guards are all male, and they usually don't come in to check carefully. It's safer here." My brother was holding his phone... calling the pesticide dealer....

His calm demeanor was quite refined, yet in the gradually darkening bathroom, his phone would glimmer.

When the lights went out, he immediately switched off his phone and drew out his Spatial-Time Sword with a backhand, clutching a talisman in readiness.

This is strange... Before it was closed, this place was quiet, but bearable.

But once the door was shut and the lights turned off, it immediately became eerily quiet.

That hollow feeling of fear began to slowly creep into my skin, seeping into my heart... I got goosebumps.

This is a signal.

The most direct feeling of stagnant energy is skin irritation. Generally, going out in the sun can help a lot when this happens.

The ghostly aura now permeating the outside world is thick beyond our comprehension—where are these things hiding How can they conceal themselves so effectively during the day

Footsteps echoed down the corridor outside: "Captain, I think everyone's gone..."

The voice was a little shaky, it must be the security guard checking in.

A gruff man's voice said, "Check carefully... some... young couples... will hide in... such places... seeking... a thrill..."

This voice... is it a stutter I looked at my brother in confusion.

My brother made two hand gestures, meaning: no matter if the other party is human or ghost, come at me!

He handed me the electric baton and held a talisman, preparing to set up a barrier with it on the bathroom door to ward off evil spirits.

"Boom..." A dull thud sounded from outside.

Our movements came to a halt as a wave of chill swept across the floor with incredible speed.

A shiny bald head suddenly "squeezed" in from under the partition door!

My blood ran cold, this is a seasoned ghost!

Actually knows how to scare someone into a breakdown first!

"Look... really... there's one who came to my door, uh-huh—"tAnd he wouldn't even let me point, so he must be someone of high status.Those guards only followed to the platform and didn't go any further. This must be Mu Wanchen's personal territory.On the windo...
