Chapter 966 Is Coming

"You should also be careful at night." Jiang Cheng reminded: "Everything currently is just speculation and has not been confirmed. There may be other variables."

Knowing that Jiang Cheng had shouldered the disaster for himself this time, Huai Yi trembled with his lips and didn't say a word for a long time. Although Jiang Cheng comforted him and said that he was fine, who could be sure about the mission? No matter how strong Jiang Cheng was, Just a human being, not a god.

Ever since he got on the bus, his door has been tightly suppressed. Judging from the previous missions, the guys in Jiangcheng Gate didn't show up just because they wanted to.

Jiang Cheng patted Huai Yi on the shoulder and pretended to be relaxed as he watched Fatty and Huai Yi walk into their respective rooms. Then he turned around, took a deep breath, and stepped into the room that originally belonged to Huai Yi.

The layout of the entire room on the second floor was similar. Jiang Cheng took a brief look around and found nothing special except for the old wall clock hanging in front of the wardrobe.

In an inconspicuous corner, Jiang Cheng dug out a torn bag and found several burned white candles inside.

1:55, this is most likely the time when the ghost comes to see him.

There is a large vertical pendulum clock placed at the entrance of the lobby on the first floor of the building. The pendulum clock is still working. Their mobile phone time is adjusted according to the time of the pendulum clock. The pendulum clock just struck the time when they entered, and the sound was startling. The fat man jumped.

It was still early, so Jiang Cheng took out his mobile phone and confirmed a few details that needed attention with Fatty Huaiyi. In the WeChat group with only the three of them, Huaiyi kept expressing his gratitude to Jiang Cheng, bombarding him with voice arrays, his voice choked with sobs. The words were sincere, but Jiang Cheng later got tired of hearing them and asked him to stop talking and be practical, and to go through the transfer procedures for the villa after he left.

Huaiyi immediately stopped talking.

The fat man shot him several times, but the latter kept pretending to be dead.

Jiang Cheng placed the candles separately, but did not light them. He was worried that the candles would not last until that time. As usual, he spread a quilt or something on the ground, sat on it, and then began a long wait.

The process of waiting for the ghost to appear is even more difficult than facing the ghost.

The night was quiet, and Jiang Cheng took the opportunity to put together the clues in this mission and think about it. He took out the book he found in the library, which recorded the tragedy that happened at the Dacorosa Manor.

Judging from the current situation, the ones who killed Mu Wanming and Jiang Zhao were the witches who died tragically in the manor. Their resentment could not be eliminated and turned into resentful spirits.

But from the victims' family members, they made a new discovery. There is an extremely terrifying existence in the manor, so terrifying that as long as it is not allowed, all the souls wandering in the manor will not be able to leave.

What exactly is this existence, and what is its relationship with those dead witches?

Jiang Cheng fell into thinking. As his peripheral vision glanced across the pages of the book, his eyes focused on the only illustration. It was a man hanging alone on a crooked tree, surrounded by a circle of beatings. Man with torch.

In Zhang's narrative, this man was the original owner of the manor. Because he was hiding a witch, he was caught by the angry people and hanged alive from a tree in the manor.

Jiang Cheng was confused at that time, why he only saw the hanged owner of the manor, but not the witches. Where did they go?

It's a pity that there are no more clues at the moment. Jiang Cheng closed the book and frowned slightly. Various clues were intertwined, making his mind very confusing.

Later, he simply didn't want to go that far. The most important thing before him was how to survive tonight. He was at least 80% sure that the ghost would come to him tonight.

Just around 1:55.

However, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but look around. He was still not sure which ghost it was.

Judging from the known clues, the ghost who killed Mu Wanming was a female ghost with big hands, and the one who killed Jiang Zhao was a female ghost wearing a black skirt. Similar ghosts are recorded in books, and The experiences of the wealthy businessman's wife and his daughter were the same.

Jiangcheng knew both of these ghosts to some extent, but what worried Jiangcheng the most was the ghost that the wealthy businessman encountered.

There is no specific information about the ghost yet. Jiang Cheng only knows that it has the characteristics of knocking on the door, and the knocking on the door can only be heard by the person who was killed, not even the wife sleeping next to the wealthy businessman.

It was late at night. Jiang Cheng calculated the time, lit the arranged candles, and turned on all the lights in the room. Only then did he feel more at ease. But just when he turned around and wanted to go back to the mat to rest for a while, his feet suddenly slipped. , just fell on it, and the touch of the soft cotton made him lose consciousness instantly.

"Hmm"

He woke up in a daze, and shivered violently the moment he opened his eyes. Why did he fall asleep, he was unconscious, but fortunately the lights and candles in the room were on.

He did not appear in the situation Mu Wanming said.

He subconsciously took out his cell phone to check the time, but what caught his eye was a missed call from Huaiyi. The time was one minute ago, and now it was 1:56, with the words just skipping.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Cheng was shocked and quickly replied.

If no one helps, Huaiyi meets the ghost in this mission alone, and Jiang Cheng's fate is completely foreseeable.

If the ghost chooses to attack Huaiyi, then Jiang Cheng will definitely save him, but the current situation is that Jiang Cheng cannot judge whether this is a real attack or a ghost conspiracy.

About a few seconds later, Huaiyi sent a message, "That ghost is here to find me." These few words made Jiang Cheng frown. He could almost imagine the fear Huaiyi was facing at this moment.

Huai Yi only pointed out the situation and did not ask Jiang Cheng to save him. "The ghost is near me now. I can feel him. Don't come. His target may not only be me, but also you all." Huai Yi was very nervous and there were typos in the words he typed.

"Don't be afraid, tell me more details." Jiang Cheng quickly replied.

"It's the knocking ghost!" Huai Yi replied: "I fell asleep unconsciously just now, and then I was awakened by a sound. There was a knock on the door outside. It was a very strange knock, one after another, very slow, but very heavy."

"I didn't dare to move at all, but after a while, the knock changed, the location changed, and it actually sounded in my room!"

"It came in!"

"It's standing behind my door, knocking on my door."

"But I can't see it, I can't see anything, there's nothing behind the door!" Huai Yi's words were messy at this moment, and even basic sentence punctuation became a problem.

"Where are the candles I asked you to arrange?" Jiang Cheng asked hurriedly.

"Out, all the candles are out." Huai Yi continued to send messages, "and the lights are out too. There is only a little light coming in from the window in my room now."
