Chapter 57 Ghost Cube, New Chapter (Bonus Chapter, Please Vote!)
"Ghost Cube?"

Chen Miao stared at the silver cube, wondering what Chen Guokun meant.

"The Ghost Cube is something developed by the Administration Bureau to deal with ghosts and spirits. You can think of it as something similar to a talisman."

"Its usage is very simple: once it touches a ghost, it will suck the ghost into the Ghost Cube."

"This thing in my hand, no vengeful ghost can escape it."

Chen Miao stared at the cube with a look of astonishment.

Is this thing similar to a spirit-suppressing talisman?

No, it seems even more convenient than a spirit-suppressing talisman.

The spirit-suppressing talisman needs to be activated, but this thing doesn't. If you wear it as an accessory, wouldn't you just run into a ghost and end the fight?
"For me?"

Chen Miao looked at Chen Guokun and asked.

"It would be difficult for me to get this myself, so I can only lend it to you. With it, at least you won't get into any trouble."

"This thing can only trap one vengeful ghost at a time. Once it is destroyed by external forces, the vengeful ghost will reappear. And for some reason, the reappearing vengeful ghost will fall into a certain degree of madness and attack its surroundings indiscriminately."

"Of course, as long as you don't put it under your feet and step on it hard, it won't break from ordinary bumps and knocks."

Chen Miao didn't refuse and took it directly.

With an extra layer of insurance, he would naturally feel more at ease.

"Row."

Seeing that Chen Miao agreed, Chen Guokun nodded.

"It's getting late. Let's go to the cemetery before it gets dark."

"cemetery?"

Chen Miao was surprised.

“Yes,” Chen Guokun said. “Our current hypothesis is that after Yue Na died, she was trapped by a feng shui formation, and then broke free.”

"If that's the case, if we find the feng shui arrangement, will we be able to find Yue Na's true form?"

"Now that we've found the source, we can solve the problem at its root, and we won't have to keep watch over those three people at night anymore."

"And where is that feng shui formation most likely to be located?"

Chen Miao blurted it out.

"grave!"

……

Two hours later, Chen Miao and the other two stood in the cemetery outside Longtang Town.

Before them stood Yue Na's tombstone.

The grave was found, but Chen Miao couldn't sense any yin energy.

If we go back another twenty or thirty years, the yin energy in the cemetery should have been quite high.

Nowadays, people are basically cremated after they die. Even if the corpse was originally a ghost, it will end its short ghost life in the crematorium after being cremated.

If there are ghosts in Yue Na's grave, then the yin energy must be stronger than that of other graves.

Neither Chen Miao nor Tong Yu, who was testing with the equipment, could find any difference between Yue Na's grave and other people's graves.

Furthermore, the graves in the cemetery are basically arranged in order, one after another.

Aside from the different inscription on the tombstone, Yue Na's grave was no different from the other graves.

While there are some theories about the feng shui of the cemetery, it's definitely impossible for it to harbor ghosts.

Therefore, the feng shui arrangement is not here, nor is Yue Na's true form here.

"It seems we'll have to proceed as planned tonight."

Chen Guokun shook his head.

"Let's go have a meal together, and then we can approach our targets separately."

At this point, Chen Guokun seemed to remember something.

He took a document from Tong Yu and handed it to Chen Miao.

"Take this. If the target you're protecting doesn't trust you, show her your identification. This identification is on file at the police station. If she calls, she'll be recognized as a police officer, which will make things easier for you."

Chen Miao nodded and accepted it.

When the three of them returned to Longtang Town, it was already 4:30 pm.

After the meal, the three of them went their separate ways.

……

The person Chen Miao wants to protect is that lawyer, Wang Yating.

When assigning goals, they assigned a priority to each of the three people.

The operations staff member was the highest-ranking, followed by the store manager, and finally the lawyer.

After all, the lawyer was just drafting the contract according to the requirements; she wrote whatever the cosmetic surgery center asked for.

Furthermore, the lawyer was not the exclusive lawyer for the cosmetic surgery center. In addition to serving the center, the lawyer had his own firm and took on other jobs.

The lawyer himself may have long forgotten the specific contents of the contract he had drafted.

So in the end, the lawyer was assigned to Chen Miao.

This can be considered as Chen Guokun taking care of Chen Miao.

Chen Miao quickly found the law firm.

The law firm is small, consisting of a lobby, a meeting room, and an office. That's all there is to it. In the entire firm, there is only one female lawyer at her workstation in the lobby.

Upon seeing Chen Miao, the female lawyer approached.

"Sir, is there something you need?"

The lawyer asked.

"Hmm, I'm looking for someone. Is Wang Yating here?"

Chen Miao glanced at the name tag on the other person's chest that read 'Intern Lawyer Xiao Xiao', and then asked.

"Sister Ting has gone out, but she usually goes back to the law firm before she leaves work. If you have time, you can wait here."

"Thank you then."

Chen Miao was led to a small table and sat down.

Then he took out the book.

The contents remain unchanged.

Setting the book aside, Chen Miao took out his phone and began to recall the common-sense things Chen Guokun had mentioned earlier that day.

A bad pen is worse than a good memory; Chen Miao can't keep asking Chen Guokun for advice every time he encounters a problem in the future.

So he planned to make a record of it himself, and then go back and compile what Chen Guokun had said, as well as the common knowledge points that appeared in "Zhong's Corpse-Driving Secret Records", into a document that could be quickly searched.

I will add this information whenever I gain relevant knowledge in the future.

This way, it will be easier for him to search for the document once it is complete.

Chen Miao even wanted to record everything he had experienced.

If I'm really old and in my seventies or eighties in the future, I can pay for the documents to be compiled into a book and passed on to my children and grandchildren, which would be a way of passing on the legacy.

As for the book's title...

Chen Miao had also decided on the title: "Notes on Mundane Life"!
Since no one can see the real "Notes on Becoming a God in the Mortal World," Chen Miao will write one himself, but forget about 'becoming a god'!

Just as Chen Miao was engrossed in recording information, the person he was protecting, Wang Yating, returned.

"Sister Ting, you're back."

"Hmm, is everything alright at the law firm?"

Wang Yating continued walking towards her office without stopping, with Xiao Xiao quickly following behind.

"It's nothing. A few people came to inquire about labor arbitration this afternoon. They said that there were ten of them who wanted to sue their boss. After I explained the situation, they went back to discuss it and will most likely come back later."

"Yes, Not Bad."

Wang Yating gave a compliment and was about to go into the office.

"By the way, Sister Ting, someone is looking for you there. They've been waiting for half an hour."

Xiao Xiao suddenly thought of something and said.

"Find me?"

Wang Yating turned her head and looked at Chen Miao's location, but she didn't recognize him.

"Have him come to my office."

After saying that, Wang Yating went inside.

Xiao Xiao ran up to Chen Miao.

"Hello, Sister Ting is back. Please come over."

Chen Miao snapped out of his daze, got up, and followed.

As soon as Chen Miao entered the office, he saw the woman in the photo.

"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?"

After Xiao Xiao left, Wang Yating asked casually.

"Yes, something's up, it's about Yue Na jumping off a building a year ago."

"The surgeon, scrub nurse, and salesperson who performed the operation all died within three days."

Chen Miao's straight shot left Wang Yating stunned.

After she extracted the keywords, her expression turned cold.

"Putting aside who you are, even if they were all dead, what does it have to do with me?"

"You think I killed them?"

"Or are you telling me that ghosts exist in this world, and that Yue Na has come to claim my life?"

Wang Yating sneered and waved her hand.

"I've had my share of lawsuits involving deaths over the years, so why is it only Yue Na who's coming to claim my life?"

"Alright, go find somewhere else to scam money. I'll pretend you were never here."

"Otherwise, I will call the police."

Chen Miao ignored Wang Yating's disdain.

At this moment, he was looking at the title of the extra "Chapter Three" in the "Notes on Becoming a God in the Mundane World" that he had not yet put away.

In silence, he pulled out the ID.

"Excuse me, I'm a police officer."
