Qin Hai patted Zeng Rou's hand, signalling for her to calm down. Then he looked at Shang Qiushan and Xia Mengxin, "You guys also think that a ghost has come?"
It was unknown if it was because of the dim light, but Shang Qiushan's face was also a little pale. He looked at Xia Mengxin beside him and gave a hollow laugh, "How is that possible? It's definitely human. I've grown up, but I've never heard of a real ghost."
Xia Meng Xin remained silent.
Qin Hai said, "I also think it's human. Other than the four of us in this building, there must be other people, and they are also on the 22nd floor. Would you like to come up with me and have a look? "
Shang Qiushan was stunned, but Xia Meng Xin calmly replied, "I'm willing!"
"Me too!" Shang Qiushan hurriedly expressed his stance, afraid that he would be looked down upon by Xia Meng Xin.
Qin Hai looked at the elevator, which was still on the 22nd floor, "Okay, we will split up. Qiushan, Miss Xia and you will take the elevator to the 23rd floor. Zeng Rou and I will climb up the stairs and try our best to block the person above, what do you think?"
Xia Mengxin said, "I have no objections!"
Shang Qiushan also shook his head, "I have no objections either."
Qin Hai patted Shang Qiushan on the shoulder. "Relax, relax. "Remember, you are a man. If you are in an emergency, protect Miss Xia. Do you understand?"
Shang Qiushan glanced at Xia Mengxin and said, "Relax, Big Brother. Even if I have to put my life on the line, I will still protect Miss Xia."
Qin Hai nodded and helped press the button for the elevator. Another elevator quickly arrived at the fifteenth floor. After Shang Qiushan and Xia Mengxin entered, they quickly took them straight to the twenty-third floor.
Qin Hai and Zeng Rou also rushed to a nearby corridor and headed upstairs.
"Did you arrange this on purpose so that you could help that kid pick up girls?" As she went upstairs, she asked with a smile.
Qin Hai laughed. "You have some ideas about this. That's all I can do to help him. Whether or not I can seize the opportunity will depend on that kid's ability!"
Zeng Rou rolled her eyes at him. "Do you really think you're a saint in love? Other than constantly picking up girls, you're also helping others. You really can't afford to be idle!"
Qin Hai smacked her on the butt and laughed, "Stop talking nonsense and increase your speed. If they really meet up with this situation, that kid might suffer."
While Qin Hai and the others were rapidly climbing towards the 22nd floor, the elevator carrying Shang Qiushan and Xia Mengxin had already reached the 23rd floor. As the elevator door opened with a "ding" sound, Shang Qiushan stuck his head out and anxiously looked outside, then turned around and said to Xia Mengxin in a low voice, "There's no one outside, let's go out."
Xia Mengxin nodded slightly and followed Shang Qiushan out of the elevator.
The corridor to the 23rd floor was also empty. Shang Qiushan tiptoed a few steps to the door of a few houses to listen for activity, then shook his head at Xia Meng Xin, indicating that there was no one inside, then pointed to the corridor.
The two of them quietly walked into the corridor and quickly reached the 22nd floor.
Because their movements were very light and did not trigger the sound control in the corridor, it was still pitch-black in the corridor.
While he was hesitating, Shang Qiushan's left hand, which was placed in front of him, suddenly touched something hard. He raised his head and saw a black shadow standing in front of him, and in the darkness, there were actually two eyes staring straight at him.
Bang!
After the scream, there was a dull thud as Shang Qiushan's head suddenly hit the wall heavily and then slid down to the ground while sticking close to the wall.
Because the call had triggered the sound switch, the corridor instantly became bright, but Xia Meng Xin, who was following behind Shang Qiushan, only saw Shang Qiushan slide down to the ground, while the corridor was empty. There was nothing but the two of them.
Xia Meng Xin was shocked and rushed forward to support Shang Qiushan. Just as she shouted out a few words, Qin Hai and Zeng Rou rushed out from the staircase.
"What happened?" When Qin Hai saw that Shang Qiushan had fainted, he immediately started to eat. He rushed over to check on Shang Qiushan's condition.
Xia Meng Xin said, "I don't know what's going on either. I just followed behind him, but he suddenly shouted loudly and then fainted."
After Qin Hai's inspection, Shang Qiushan's problem was not too serious. It was just a headbutt, and he would be fine after a few tugs and tugs.
Not long after, under Qin Hai's treatment, Shang Qiushan finally regained consciousness.
After the brat saw Qin Hai's face, he grabbed his clothes excitedly and shouted, "Ghost, there's really a ghost! I just saw it!"
"What does a ghost look like?" Qin Hai asked.
"It was very dark just now. I couldn't see its appearance clearly, but it was very tall, taller than me by a head. Its body was very cold, very hard, like a stone!" Shang Qiushan recalled as he spoke, his hand gesturing at the ghost's height and figure.
Zeng Rou was so scared that her face turned pale, and her body started to tremble. On the other hand, Xia Meng Xin was still as calm as ever.
Qin Hai asked Xia Meng Xin, "You didn't see anything?"
Xia Meng Xin carefully recalled, then shook her head and said, "I didn't see anything."
Shang Qiushan was stunned, then his face couldn't help but reveal a look of intense fear. "Could it be …" Could it be that this ghost is here specifically to look for me? "
Qin Hai walked around in a circle in the corridor. The floor covered in white tiles was as clean as a mirror. Nothing was left behind, nor were there any footprints.
Soon after, he arrived at the door closest to the place where Shang Qiushan had fainted earlier.
Looking through the peephole on the anti-theft door, it was pitch black inside. There was not a single light, and even through the door, no one could hear anything. When he reached the other door on the other side, he saw the same thing.
"Let's go upstairs and take a look." Qin Hai suddenly turned around and said to Zeng Rou and the others before quickly bringing Zeng Rou, Monk Qiushan, and the others into the stairwell.
Zeng Rou was a bit confused and asked, "You think that ghost just went to the 23rd floor?"
"It's possible. We'll know if we go up and take a look."
Everyone was centered around Qin Hai, so there was no doubt about his decision. However, just as they were about to exit the stairwell and reach the 23rd floor, Qin Hai suddenly said, "I almost forgot, there's a window in the corridor that hasn't been checked. Let's go down and take a look."
As long as they followed Qin Hai to the 22nd floor, when Zeng Rou and the others checked the only ventilation window in the corridor, Qin Hai's eyes were focused on the ground. Then, a smile appeared on his face.
Unknowingly, a layer of white powder similar to flour had appeared on the ground, and a line of footprints could clearly be seen in the middle of the white powder.
