CHAPTER 329: CHAPTER 329: CAUGHT THE GHOST

Xuan Shiliu glanced at Jing Mengmeng, who looked terrified, and said coldly, "Ghosts don’t appear for no reason. Think about what you’ve done and when you first noticed this ghost."

Everyone sat down, and Jing Mengmeng recalled, "It was two days ago, around noon. I was napping when I suddenly felt a chill..."

"Then I woke up from the cold, and when I opened my eyes, I vaguely saw someone standing in front of the bed. It gave me quite a fright!

When I looked again, no one was there."

Hugging her arms, Jing Mengmeng continued, "And since then, no matter what I do, I always feel like someone is watching me.

But this is my own home, with Nanny Wang cooking downstairs, and I’m the only one upstairs. There’s definitely no one else..."

"That night, as soon as I closed my eyes to sleep, that feeling of being watched came over me again!"

"Later, I slept with the lights on, and just as I fell asleep, I felt someone touching my leg and moving upwards..."

Jing Mengmeng trembled as she recounted the events of the past two days.

Jiang Ran stared at Jing Mengmeng, "Did you do anything two days ago?"

Jing Mengmeng shook her head, "No, I just went out with friends and then came back..."

Seeing that Jing Mengmeng couldn’t think of anything, Lin Xiaoyan glanced at Lin Feng. Lin Feng caught her look and asked Jing Mengmeng again, "Have you seen Gao Ze and Jiang Rui in the past two days?"

Jing Mengmeng paused and looked at Lin Feng, "Yes, I have."

"What about those two? What happened?" Jing Mengmeng asked.

Lin Feng: "When did you see Gao Ze?"

Jing Mengmeng looked at Lin Xiaoyan, "I only met Gao Ze once, the day when I met Mr. Lin."

Lin Feng nodded, "What about Jiang Rui?"

"Jiang Rui... we went to a bar together two days ago..." Jing Mengmeng frowned, thinking about Jiang Rui’s behavior when they were at the bar.

"Jiang Rui invited a lot of people. There were more than twenty of us. Jiang Rui rented the place. Master, could Jiang Rui be the problem?" Jing Mengmeng asked urgently.

Lin Feng looked at Jing Mengmeng, "Think carefully again. What did you do at the bar? What did Jiang Rui say to you? Explain once more in detail."

Jing Mengmeng immediately recounted everything that happened that day.

Jiang Ran and the others kept silent, just listening on the side.

Lin Xiaoyan recalled the scenes she "saw" last time, the people on the cruise ship in those scenes...

After Jing Mengmeng finished speaking, she asked,

"Were those people at the bar that day the same ones preparing to board the cruise?"

Jing Mengmeng paused and nodded, "Yes! But that day, a few couldn’t come due to some matters."

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng glanced at Lin Xiaoyan and said, "Who suggested you take a cruise for a sea trip?"

Jing Mengmeng replied stiffly, "Jiang... Jiang Rui!"

Jing Mengmeng wasn’t stupid; she sensed that Jiang Rui was up to something when Lin Feng kept mentioning him.

"Did Jiang Rui intend to harm us?!"

Lin Feng watched Jing Mengmeng, ignoring her words, "Write down the names of those preparing to board the cruise."

Seeing she got no answer, Jing Mengmeng patiently wrote down the list.

After she finished, Lin Feng took a photo of it and sent it to the group’s investigation department.

Someone immediately replied in the group, "Received."

Then, Lin Feng looked at Jing Mengmeng, "Now go upstairs and sleep."

Jing Mengmeng: !!

"I... can I sleep? What if the ghost returns... what then?"

Xuan Shiliu rolled his eyes, "What to do? We’re here, so tell me, what do you think?"

Jing Mengmeng paused, realizing they wanted her to act as bait to lure the ghost out!

Though frustrated, considering her situation with these specialists around, she dared not voice any complaints. She needed their help to capture the ghost!

Jing Mengmeng reluctantly went upstairs. Climbing step by step, she glanced back at those in the living room, "You... make sure to save me!"

Lin Feng: "Don’t worry, Miss Jing, once that ghost comes, we have ways to handle it!"

Hearing his assurance, Jing Mengmeng felt courageous.

She bit her lip and quickly returned to her room, lay down, closed her eyes, and tried to sleep.

Having not slept well for so long, she fell asleep instantly despite her fear.

Downstairs, Xuan Shiliu and his team performed a Qi Concealment Technique, suppressing their presence.

Lin Xiaoyan glanced at them, raised her brow, and fumbled through her bag, pulling out two talisman papers, giving one to Nan Xi and keeping one for herself.

Xuan Shiliu noticed them and immediately recognized the talisman papers as Xuan Wu’s, raising his thumb in admiration for Lin Xiaoyan.

Originally, he planned to perform the technique for Lin Xiaoyan and Nan Xi, but now it wasn’t necessary.

"It’s here!"

Jiang Ran whispered.

Everyone immediately looked upstairs, and Lin Xiaoyan and Nan Xi stepped back, leaving this matter to the experts.

"Go!"

Lin Feng whispered, and the four of them rushed upstairs.

When they reached Jing Mengmeng’s door, Xuan Shiliu stood guarding, readying a technique to prevent the ghost’s escape.

The others rushed inside.

They entered to find a decaying ghost lying atop Jing Mengmeng.

Startled by their entrance, the ghost tried to flee.

"Where do you think you’re going!" Jiang Ran immediately brandished his weapon to subdue it.

Lin Feng and Li Chao also drew their weapons...

Lin Xiaoyan and Nan Xi huddled together on the downstairs sofa with someone else nearby.

It was Nanny Wang from Jing Mengmeng’s family, frequently glancing upstairs.

Hearing all the noise above, she dared not venture up.

Half an hour later, a clap of thunder startled the three, causing them to jump.

Then silence settled over the house.

Nan Xi stood up, took a few steps toward the stairs, listening for sounds above.

Lin Xiaoyan also stood, "There’s no more noise, is it over?"

Just after she spoke, Xuan Shiliu descended the stairs.

Lin Xiaoyan: "Sixteen, did you capture the ghost?"

Sixteen: "We caught it!"

On hearing this, all three in the living room sighed in relief.

Xuan Shiliu looked at Lin Xiaoyan, "Sister Yan, could you come upstairs for a moment?"

Though puzzled, Lin Xiaoyan swiftly headed upstairs, with Nan Xi following close behind.

Upon reaching the top, they saw Lin Feng and the others securing a humanoid shape and dragging it along.

Seeing them approach, they quickly said, "Xiao Lin, could you help tidy things for Miss Jing while we handle some questioning downstairs!"

Lin Xiaoyan nodded, "Alright."

As Lin Xiaoyan and Nan Xi entered Jing Mengmeng’s room, they were shocked by the scene.

Except for Jing Mengmeng’s bed, the rest of the room was a mess.

Lin Xiaoyan and Nan Xi exchanged glances, realizing how fierce the confrontation must have been!
