Chapter 280: Chapter 280: Garage Ghost_1

"Boss, why do I feel a chill down my spine? There’s nothing weird around here, right?" Zong Wangyue’s acting wasn’t bad; he hunched his neck, his voice trembling as he spoke.

"Seems, seems like there’s something, something behind us."

Man, I really couldn’t tell—Jin Qi’s acting skills are top-notch too. I fought the urge to give them a thumbs-up and, feigning calmness, said with a smile, "Nonsense, it’s broad daylight. What could possibly be out here?"

"Let’s just hurry up and go. This place has a heavy aura of gloom."

Zong Wangyue turned and walked away swiftly, followed closely by Jin Qi.

"Cowards."

I mocked with a laugh and was just about to leave when I suddenly asked Zong Wangyue, "Zongzi, where did you put my notebook?"

Turning around, Zong Wangyue saw my gaze drift toward the front passenger seat and immediately understood, saying, "I think I put it in the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat."

I nodded, walked over to the passenger side, opened the door, and bent down to open the built-in glove compartment.

I casually grabbed the handle and swung the door of the glove compartment open. When I looked down into the box, I was horrified to find a human head inside!

"Holy shit!"

An exclamation of shock!

As I was startled, the head lunged at me with a bite!

"Bang!"

Before the head could even fly out of the glove compartment, I slammed the door shut fiercely!

"Oof!"

My ears, sharp as a dog’s, distinctly heard a woman’s cry of pain coming from inside the glove compartment.

Suppressing the urge to laugh, I quickly closed the car door and jogged over to where Zong Wangyue and Jin Qi were.

"Boss, that scream of yours was so soulful. Did you see a ghost or something?"

"Ghost my ass! Brother just got dazzled for a moment and saw things wrong, that’s all."

"So you too can see things wrong, Boss. That’s a rarity indeed."

The three of us walked toward the nearby elevator, laughing and talking. Meanwhile, in the corner behind me, a white figure with disheveled black hair slowly floated past...

"Ding."

The elevator door opened, and the three of us entered.

"Brother Zongzi, which floor?" Jin Qi turned to ask Zong Wangyue.

"Twelfth floor."

Jin Qi pressed the button for the twelfth floor, followed by the one to close the elevator doors.

Usually, the elevator doors would close within three to five seconds. However, strangely, the doors just wouldn’t close.

"Hey, why won’t the door close?"

I asked Jin Qi.

"I’ve already pressed it." Saying this, Jin Qi pressed the close button several more times with force. Although the button lit up, the door still didn’t shut.

"Let me try."

While speaking, you pressed the "close door" button once.

Ah, the door moved.

However, just as the door was about to close, it suddenly opened again!

At the same time, the elevator’s light began to flicker eerily.

"What, what’s going on?" Zong Wangyue panicked.

"It must be an elevator malfunction; we should take another one."

You had barely finished speaking and were about to leave when the elevator doors suddenly closed, the lights returned to normal, and the elevator slowly began to ascend.

Jin Qi and Zong Wangyue turned to look at you, both smiling at the same time.

Actually, the situation before you was quite amusing—at least, it was for the three of you. If it had been anyone else, they probably would have been scared half to death.

Because at that moment, the elevator stopped again—on the fourth floor!

Zong Wangyue could no longer hold back and turning to you, he said, "Boss, this girl looks way too frightening. I can’t stand to look at her anymore. Please, do us a favor and get rid of her."

The biggest difference between you and others was your ability to see certain things that others couldn’t, such as the female ghost standing at the elevator’s doorway.

The female ghost wore a white dress, her hair was disheveled, her eye sockets were deeply sunken, her eye rims were black, and in this cold winter, she was dressed thinly and barefooted, her feet not touching the ground.

After hearing Zong Wangyue’s words, the expression on the female ghost’s face clearly changed; she couldn’t help but turn to look at Zong Wangyue, apparently taking his words to heart.

Meanwhile, Zong Wangyue was staring directly at her with a mocking smile on his face, "I mean, sister, the three of us brothers don’t seem to have any feuds with you, right? Don’t ghosts talk about karma? Your death wasn’t a consequence of our actions, so why trouble us for no reason? Are you perhaps an evil spirit? Oh no, what should we do? We’ve actually been entangled by an evil spirit. No, no, this won’t do; I must send a few deeply touching, heart-piercing messages to my goddess before I die. Hmm, what should I say? I should tell my goddess that the first time I saw her, I fell inexplicably, hopelessly, and irretrievably in love with her. In this life, I have no fate with her, so I only pray to sow more bodhi seeds in front of Buddha, to earn a few glances in the next life..."

"Stop!"

The female ghost interrupted with a shout, silencing the incessantly babbling Zong Wangyue.

"What, I’m still brainstorming here; let me finish before you kill me."

"You can see me?" The female ghost appeared somewhat astonished; it was the first time she had encountered someone who could see a ghost and still talk so much nonsense.

"Nonsense, not just me, but also this charming guy next to me who is loved by all and makes flowers bloom, as well as this handsome, dashing, and suave guy—they can all see you."

You suddenly realized that when it came to talking nonsense, Zong Wangyue and Yang Kai were cut from the same cloth; they were well-matched in that respect.

"You, you all..." The female ghost couldn’t help but drift backward, looking at the three of you with a surprised expression, "If you can see me, then why aren’t you afraid or trembling?"

Zong Wangyue crossed his arms and looked at the female ghost with a judging gaze, "Actually, sister, there’s really nothing about you that we find frightening. Let’s start with your face; although it’s quite unsightly, it’s nowhere near as scary as the zombies in American films. And as for your figure, it’s not bad, you’ve got a C-cup bust which is pretty good, but your butt is a bit flat, probably from sitting too long at work or as a homebody, which makes it appear somewhat slack."

"You..."

The female ghost was immediately infuriated by Zong Wangyue’s remarks, her complexion turning even more menacing.

Zong Wangyue was indeed a rare breed among the living, actually daring to tease a female ghost.

"Ah, now that’s a better expression; that’s more like a ghost."

"I’ll kill you!"

Upon saying this, the female ghost lunged straight at Zong Wangyue!

Zong Wangyue just smiled, watching as the female ghost rushed towards him, without any intention of moving. However, when the ghost’s seemingly ferocious tusks got about thirty centimeters away from Zong Wangyue, they stopped.

"Bite me, why won’t you bite?"

"Who, who exactly are you?"
