Yang Jian was stunned when he saw the photo on his phone.

Although he couldn’t see the face of the person in the security uniform, there was only one other person in the entire mall besides him who wore a security uniform… Liu Qiang.

There were only two security guards in the mall, Yang Jian and Liu Qiang.

It was impossible for Yang Jian to be the ghost, so Liu Qiang’s identity was beyond doubt.

He was… the ghost.

Yang Jian recalled the first time he entered the mall and smelled a strong odor of decay. He saw Liu Qiang walking out of the darkness and greeting him, saying he had just come back from the restroom.

If Liu Qiang really went to the restroom, how could he have missed Jiang Yan hiding there?

It all seemed to add up.

Yang Jian frowned deeply, “This is impossible. If Liu Qiang is the ghost, why wasn’t I attacked when I was with him in the dormitory? I met the conditions to be attacked by the ghost…”

Although the possibility of Liu Qiang being the ghost was high, there were still doubts.

Guessing was useless. He had to investigate further.

With his current knowledge and understanding of the ghost, he had enough confidence to deal with it.

“So, is the ghost gone? Are you okay now?” Jiang Yan asked nervously.

“It’s okay. The ghost is gone. You’re safe for now,” Yang Jian replied.

“Can you not press against me… and your thing is poking me,” Jiang Yan said, almost leaning against the door.

“It’s okay. It’s just a ham sausage. By the way, are you still hungry? Do you want to eat?” Yang Jian asked.

“At this time? Shouldn’t we talk about it after we get out?” Jiang Yan said.

“Forget it if you don’t want it. I don’t want to give it to you anyway,” Yang Jian said.

Jiang Yan hesitated for a moment and then said, “Well… but can you be quick? Don’t take too long.”

“You’re really talkative.”

Yang Jian turned on his flashlight and illuminated the surroundings. He took out a ham sausage from his pocket and gave it to Jiang Yan.

“Take it. I bought it for breakfast this morning. It cost three yuan. It’s cheap, but you’re really amazing. There are ghosts here, and you’re still thinking about the ham sausage in my pocket.”

Jiang Yan looked at the sausage in her hand and was stunned. It was really a ham sausage…

“You can eat it slowly. I’m going out now.”

Yang Jian opened the door and walked out with his flashlight.

He looked around and saw nothing. It was quiet and peaceful.

But when he shone his light on the doors of the adjacent rooms, he was stunned.

The door of the previous room seemed to have been shattered by the ghost, but now… it was intact.Yes, the door of the single room was tightly closed, without any signs of damage, which was completely inconsistent with science.

“Encountering ghosts is not a scientific thing in the first place.”

Yang Jian withdrew his gaze and stopped dwelling on the ghost’s abilities.

“Where are you going? There are ghosts outside. Why don’t you stay here with me until dawn?”

Jiang Yan cautiously walked out, with disheveled hair, tattered clothes, and holding a sausage in her hand.

“I still have things to do. I finally figured out some things about that ghost. Of course, I have to go find trouble with him. Besides, the reason I came here was to make money. If Mr. Tang dies, won’t this trip be in vain? He is offering a reward of one million outside to solve the haunted incident in the mall, and I came for that.”

Saying that, he walked out of the toilet with a flashlight.

Jiang Yan hurriedly followed: “You’re leaving, what about me?”

“Sister, I’m not your parent or your nanny. How do I know what you should do? Why don’t you just stay in the toilet? I’ll come and notify you when it’s over, and then you can leave.” Yang Jian turned around and looked at her.

“No, that won’t do. What if the ghost comes while I’m in the toilet? And do you have a way to deal with that ghost?” Jiang Yan said.

Yang Jian replied, “I can barely deal with it.”

“Then can you protect me?” Jiang Yan pleaded.

“Why should I protect you when I don’t even know you? Saving a damsel in distress is what heroes do, and heroes usually die young, so I don’t want to be a hero. I just want to do my own thing.” Yang Jian arrived on the first floor of the mall and looked around.

Jiang Yan followed, holding onto Yang Jian’s arm and said, “Then I’ll be your girlfriend. That should work, right?”

“You’re not only thinking too highly of yourself but also naive. You don’t even know my name, and you want to be my girlfriend? When we go out, who will recognize who? You just want me to risk my life for you, don’t you?” Yang Jian looked at her.

“I’m serious. I won’t regret it.” Jiang Yan said.

“I don’t trust you, and being your girlfriend won’t do me any good. It will only cause me trouble, and I might even end up dead. I’ve had experiences with unreliable teammates.” Yang Jian continued to search for something with his flashlight.

“No, I’m smart. I won’t cause you any trouble. Please trust me.” Jiang Yan said.

She was on the verge of collapse. She was an accountant in the company, a white-collar worker, and she looked good. Although she wasn’t tall, she had slender legs and a large chest. She had many pursuers in her daily life. But now, she was chasing after a small security guard.

But even so, Jiang Yan still had to cling to this small security guard because she knew that only he could protect her.

“I found it.” Yang Jian’s flashlight quickly shone on something.

A human head.

A rotten, stinky human head.

This human head belonged to… Wei Xiaohong.From before until now, it has always been here without moving.

“Jiang Yan saw the ghost, which was Wei Xiaohong. The ghost I filmed before was Liu Qiang… she has no reason to lie, and I couldn’t have filmed it wrong. The only possibility is that this ghost can change its identity. Whether it’s Wei Xiaohong, Liu Qiang, or even that Li Jie, or other employees.”

“Everyone could be the ghost.” Yang Jian furrowed his brows deeply.

“No, we should consider Tang Boss, Manager Li, and Master Luo, who have been here for so long.”

“To truly find out who the ghost is, we just need to go to one place.”

“The surveillance room.”

Everything that has happened these few days must have been captured by the surveillance. As long as we retrieve the footage in the surveillance room, everything will be clear.

“Jiang Yan, do you know where the surveillance room is?” Yang Jian asked.

“It’s on the fifth floor,” Jiang Yan replied.

“Take me there, and I promise you’ll leave here alive.”

“Really?” Jiang Yan was surprised.

“Yes, but the condition is that you must listen to me. You must do what I say. If you run around in fear and get yourself killed, I won’t take responsibility,” Yang Jian said seriously.

“I promise to listen to you,” Jiang Yan immediately pledged.

“I hope you can keep your promise, not for me, but for yourself. Let’s go… to the fifth floor.”

He looked up.

Although the upper floor was dimly lit, there was still some light, and it was much better than downstairs.

But there was no movement upstairs.

He didn’t know how Tang Boss, Master Luo, and that ghost-tamer Yan Li were doing.

Maybe they had escaped, or maybe they were already dead…

But he had to go and see. If they were really dead, he would have no reason to stay here any longer.
