Chapter 216: Chapter 216: Confronting the Leader_1

Qin Sisi suddenly thought of sothing, imdiately asked Ye You for a Revealing Soul Pill, quickly walked to Ning Hao, and fed the pill into Ning Yue’s mouth.

Just as Ning Yue swallowed the Revealing Soul Pill, the bathroom door was pushed open, and three n carrying flashlights walked in.

The one leading was in his forties, wearing glasses, scholarly but with a stern expression. The two younger n following him included one wearing a tracksuit, who looked like a physical education teacher, and the other was the security guard who had attempted to stop Qin Sisi and her companions from entering the school.

Seeing that the bathroom light was on, the three n put down their flashlights, but didn’t turn them off.

The man in the lead, who appeared to be the boss, sternly surveyed Qin Sisi and her companions and asked harshly, "Who are you all? Why do you co into our school in the middle of the night?"

Before Qin Sisi and Ning Hao could speak, the security guard stepped forward, pointed at Ning Hao and said to the boss, "Director, it’s this man. He claid to be a policeman and forced his way in."

The leader, addressed as "Director," looked at Ning Hao and said, "Young man, impersonating a police officer is illegal."

Ning Hao replied with a serious tone, "I’m not pretending, I am a real police officer, I’m here to save soone."

The Director looked at the girl in Ning Hao’s arms and a flicker of confusion passed over his face. When he had first entered, he seed not to have noticed that this young man was also carrying soone!

When the Revealing Soul Pill was just swallowed, its effect hadn’t yet taken place – it took almost a minute for Ning Yue to return to her normal state.

Qin Sisi had been standing in front of Ning Hao all along, intentionally blocking the view of Ning Yue.

Now that the Revealing Soul Pill had fully taken effect, Ning Yue appeared as a normal girl, except for her lack of a heartbeat.

However, these n wouldn’t dare to check if Ning Yue had a heartbeat, even if they had the notion, they wouldn’t have the courage or the audacity.

The Director looked at Ning Yue’s delicate features and slender figure, and couldn’t help but think of his own daughter of a similar age, a feeling of pity rose in his heart.

The Director softened his tone and asked Ning Hao, "You say you’re a police officer, do you have an ID?"

Ning Hao replied, "Yes, I showed it to him when I entered."

As he spoke, Ning Hao pointed his chin at the security guard.

The Director looked at the security guard, who stuttered, "He... he only flashed it at , I... I didn’t see it clearly."

The Director turned back to Ning Hao and said, "Show it to

again."

Ning Hao replied confidently, "It’s in the inside pocket of my jacket. You can take it out yourself."

Seeing that Ning Hao’s hands were full holding the young girl, and considering his own status, the Director wasn’t willing to reach into Ning Hao’s pocket himself, so he signaled the security guard to do it instead.

The guard hesitated, then stepped forward, extending a trembling hand towards the inside pocket of Ning Hao’s jacket.

Qin Sisi looked at him curiously, wondering why he seed so frightened, as she and Ning Hao were obviously normal people.

In a short while, the security guard had taken an ID from inside Ning Hao’s jacket, handed it to the Director, and then quickly retreated behind him.

The Director examined it, and it was indeed a standard police ID; there was nothing wrong with it.

Just then, the PE teacher standing behind the Director spoke up in doubt, "Director, take a good look. Could it be a fake?"

The Director was taken aback, a hint of uncertainty flashed across his face, and he said slowly, "It does appear to be real. However..."

Unable to finish his words, the Director was full of doubts. Despite the valid ID, he remained wary of Ning Hao and Qin Sisi’s intrusion.

Ning Hao, sowhat annoyed, said, "I work at the Public Security Bureau of XX district. You can call now to verify."

The Director looked at Ning Hao, snapped the ID shut and said to him, "Alright young man, I believe you, but you need to tell us what you are here for in the school in the middle of the night."

Ning Hao also softened his tone and said, "As you can see, I’m here to save soone."

The Director looked at Ning Yue in Ning Hao’s arms and asked, "What’s wrong with this child?"

Ning Hao answered succinctly, "She’s my sister. She ca here looking for a friend and didn’t return. That’s why I ca to find her."

A sense of unease crossed the Director’s mind as he continued to ask, "Why did you think to look for her in this bathroom, in this building?"

Ning Hao frowned slightly, unable to respond to this question because the location was given by Qin Sisi.

Noticing Ning Hao’s silence, Qin Sisi quickly intervened saying, "This girl has a weak life chart and has experienced soul displacent before, and she is very sensible. She wouldn’t just disappear and make her family worry without reason, so we thought to look for her here."

At these words, the faces of the Director, the PE teacher, and the security guard all turned pale. They exchanged glances, seeming sowhat panicked.

However, the Director was an old hand in such matters and quickly regained his composure. He stared intensely at Qin Sisi and asked with deep implications, "Young lady, I don’t quite understand what you’re saying. What does her weak life chart have to do with you coming here?"

Qin Sisi looked at the apparently relaxed but nervous Director, smirked, and in a chillingly cold voice said, "Director, what happened in this bathroom, you certainly know better than we do. Why pretend to be ignorant when you’re clearly aware?"

The Director’s face changed instantly. He scanned the entire bathroom and then carefully asked, "Young lady, did you see anything strange while you were here?"

Qin Sisi thought for a mont, then asked, "Director, could you first tell

if a sanitation worker died here recently?"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the three n hardened in shock as they stared at Qin Sisi.

The Director stepped back in a panic, his face turning pale as he stuttered, "You... how do you know that?"

Ning Hao also looked at Qin Sisi in surprise; he hadn’t heard anything about this incident either.

Seeing their reactions, Qin Sisi knew she had guessed correctly.

The ghost had been present here for more than a day or two. There were bound to be clues, but to avoid causing mass hysteria, the school would definitely try to cover it up, most likely saying that the bathroom was out of order and cannot be used, keeping students away from here.

Moreover, when Qin Sisi was being levitated by Ye You’s silver sphere near the twelfth-floor window, she heard a few muttered words from the ghost about how this one slls much better than the last sanitation worker.

It could be inferred that before the ghost had tried to harm Ning Yue, it had already killed at least one person – a sanitation worker who had unwittingly fallen into its trap while cleaning.
