Top Grade Immortal Emperor in the Flower City Chapter 703 712: Ghosts! (9 more!)

So, here I am, about to transform into Sherlock Hols to investigate this case, and I've got this tag-along. What's up with that?

More importantly, even Ye Ling wasn't sure what the situation was inside the factory. What if a female ghost really did jump out? Wouldn't that scare Zhang Qian to death?

"I won't leave. I'll follow you wherever you go. Otherwise, you'd be abandoning . You want Leopard to break my legs, don't you?"

"Just let follow you. I can give massages, rember how good I was when I massaged you today?"

Ye Ling sighed, turned around, and said seriously, "Zhang Qian, right? I'm telling you, I'm going to catch ghosts. If sothing happens to you because you're following , that would be the end of it."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Qian got extrely excited, "Really? That's so thrilling! I don't care, I want to go too. If you dare not let , I'll scream harassnt."

Hearing this, Ye Ling thought, not this trick again! Damn it, you can follow, but if you get scared to death, it's your own fault.

Seeing Ye Ling's reaction, Zhang Qian chuckled, delighted with herself. Now that she had her way, she hung onto Ye Ling's arm even tighter.

Ye Ling felt a surge of heat through her nose from the pressure and turned to Zhang Qian with a fierce tone, "Hey, could you please show a little restraint? If you keep teasing like this, I'll drag you to an abandoned spot and have my way with you!"

"Bring it on, let's hurt each other."

Zhang Qian chuckled again, nearly causing Ye Ling to spit out a mouthful of blood. Big sis, can you please behave? You're a woman, for heaven's sake. Why do you act tougher than a guy?

By this ti, they had arrived at the entrance of the Hua i factory area. It was already around half-past ten at night.

When they got to the gate, they saw the security guard leisurely watching a small black-and-white TV, completely ignoring their arrival.

Ye Ling sighed at the lack of discipline and then led Zhang Qian straight into the factory area.

Inside, the factory was silent. The Hua i factory area was quite far from the residential area. The factory was sowhat lively, thanks to the night shift workers, but the residential area was dead quiet.

Even the lights were dim. Suddenly, a cold gust of wind blew by, causing Zhang Qian to shiver and quickly wrap her arms around herself.

"I need to use the restroom, wait here for . Otherwise, when I catch you again, I'll cling to you even more," she said.

With those words, Zhang Qian ran off, leaving Ye Ling alone to wander aimlessly, waiting for her return.

She was like a piece of sticking plaster; if she really got attached, he wouldn't be able to shake her off.

But after waiting for more than twenty minutes, Zhang Qian still hadn't returned, and Ye Ling began to feel puzzled. Hey, what's going on? This woman couldn't actually have been taken by a ghost, could she?

Checking his watch, it was now past eleven o'clock. At this ti of night, it was awkward; if there were ghosts, they might also be considering whether this was a fitting ti to show up.

At that mont, a little chubby guy with glasses wearing a blue uniform and clutching a bag of instant noodles humd a tune as he walked past.

Ye Ling approached him with a smile, planning to inquire about the general situation, "Hey buddy, can I ask you sothing?"

The chubby guy looked at Ye Ling and mysteriously grinned, "Heh heh, you're a reporter, aren't you? Let tell you. You're the third group that's co to our factory for interviews today."

"But our factory manager has made it clear; regarding the dead, no one can speak of it. Otherwise, we could lose our jobs."

"But now it's late at night, and no one knows. I'll give you face since you've been waiting here for quite a while. Who calls the 'Little Zhuge Liang'? I know about the heavens above and the earth below."

This so-called 'Little Zhuge Liang' seed to be a chatty person who actually took the initiative to talk, which left Ye Ling dumbfounded. However, this was just fine, saving him the trouble of asking.

"Um, I just wanted to ask about the death incidents everyone's talking about. What exactly happened?"

Ye Ling asked with a slight smile, and the chubby man nodded, "Good question you've got there. It's only been a few days, and six or seven people have died. Can you imagine?"

"Let tell you, all these people died in strange ways, none of them normal. It's just a sha. We don't know how they died."

The chubby man curled his lips and said, "Now, a lot of our factory's night shift security guards have resigned. So have seen a ghost in white clothes."

"That ghost, with long hair and a white dress, walked with a swaying motion. Scared people to death, it did."

As the chubby man was speaking, he suddenly widened his eyes, opened his mouth wide, and, trembling, pointed behind Ye Ling, "Heavens... Heavens above, a ghost, a ghost!"

Whoosh, the chubby man ran off in a puff of smoke. Ye Ling was montarily stunned. What? Did it really show up?

He turned and glared fiercely, but then Ye Ling burst out laughing. What ghost? It was just Zhang Qian. Hadn't he said that with her disguise, she would scare people half to death?

"Hey, did you fall into a latrine? It's been almost half an hour. Where did you go make-up?"

Ye Ling was very dissatisfied. His ti was precious, and there she was, seemingly touring around.

"What are you rushing for? My legs went numb from squatting. Otherwise, why would I be hopping around when I walk?"

Zhang Qian replied, also dissatisfied. Ye Ling waved his hand, and the two began to stroll around. Ye Ling mainly wanted to see if there truly was an aura of death here.

Such an aura would suggest a strong possibility of ghosts, but after an hour of wandering, not a single human figure—let alone a ghost or deathly aura—was seen.

"Could it be that the ghost is on holiday today? Playing 'Fight the Landlord' at ho?"

Ye Ling said, depressed, while Zhang Qian was quite frightened, her body trembling, "That umm, Ye Ling, let's go back, huh? It's really scary in the middle of the night."

Ye Ling waved his hand, "I told you so, but you insisted on following. If you want to leave, then go, you scaredy-cat."

"Who are you calling scared? I'll stick it out to the end today. I don't believe how scary this female ghost can really be."

Zhang Qian had just finished speaking when Ye Ling saw a worker with sleepy eyes heading towards the dormitory. He hurriedly called out, "Hey brother, wait a second."

The man turned around, and instantly his eyes bulged. Seeing Zhang Qian still hopping around with numb legs, he shouted, "Oh my goodness, a ghost!"

"What? A ghost? Ah!"

Suddenly, Zhang Qian let out a piercing scream that shattered the silence. The guy frightened by Zhang Qian stumbled and fell to the ground, then scrambled up and vanished like a lunatic.

"I can't even with you. Tell , what's the point of wearing such clothes at night? I can't even do my job now."
