Who says vengeful ghosts can't go on blind dates?
Chapter 39: Glorious Achievements
Upon hearing this, Song Yufei immediately became unhappy.
The clown ghost's killing rule is to make things happen that the people or ghosts around him do not want to happen.
However, due to his greatly diminished strength, according to Count Golos, the Joker's ability is now almost useless.
At best, it's just people insulting each other.
So, this clown ghost, who only has one head left and can be manipulated by his own insect eyes at any time, actually dared to curse her!
Thinking of this, Song Yufei glanced at the clown ghost with great dissatisfaction.
The clown ghost was in no way inferior in terms of imposing manner, and even glared at Song Yufei directly: "Hey! You're not convinced? But I've never lost a bet before, and this time is no exception."
Song Yufei closed her eyes, trying to ignore the clown ghost's incessant whispers.
"You know what? Sometimes the stuff coming out of the taps in this awful hospital is blood, sometimes pus, sometimes..." The clown ghost's voice carried a morbid expectation, "...and sometimes it's tears."
What kind of nonsense is this?
Song Yufei opened her eyes and glared at the clown ghost.
The clown wisely shut his mouth. However, those eyes, full of mockery and malice, still made Song Yufei feel very uncomfortable.
Out of sight, out of mind, she closed her eyes again and lay down on the hospital bed to rest.
However, perhaps the clown ghost's words had an effect, and she wondered where Ren Zhizhe would go to get water.
This awful hospital definitely doesn't have normal water.
During her hospital stay, she prepared her own water in advance—or rather, it was "kindly" provided by the shady real estate agent.
Ren Zhizhe went to get her water, but where could he get it?
It's impossible to go outside the hospital to buy it.
Just then, footsteps sounded outside the ward.
The door was pushed open, and Ren Zhizhe returned.
came back?
So fast?
Song Yufei was somewhat surprised.
She sat up in bed. But when she saw the cup Ren Zhizhe handed her, her face instantly darkened.
Ren Zhizhe held a glass of dark red liquid in his hand.
Did they really give her a glass of blood?
Has the clown's killing rules come into effect? No, it shouldn't be. Count Golos doesn't seem like the type to lie to himself.
The Clown Ghost's rules for killing are too dangerous; Count Golos would probably not want to plant such a huge threat next to her.
So, the clown ghost theory is just pure guesswork?
There's no time to think about these trivial details now.
Seeing that Ren Zhizhe was still waiting for her, Song Yufei had no choice but to accept the cup of blood.
Seeing this, the clown ghost immediately looked at Song Yufei with a gloating expression.
Song Yufei had no interest in paying attention to this guy. She slowly brought the cup of blood to her lips, her mind racing, wondering whether she should drink it or not.
During this time, she secretly glanced at Ren Zhizhe. He was standing by the hospital bed, looking natural, even a little concerned, with no trace of the malice usually seen in vengeful ghosts.
Song Yufei gritted her teeth, brought the rim of the cup to her lips, held her breath, and drank it down.
Hmm... it doesn't taste like anything.
It doesn't seem to have any texture.
After drinking it, my stomach didn't seem to hurt anymore.
Hmm... it seems this cup of blood is still warm?
"Won't constantly troubling you interfere with your other tasks?"
"Don't worry about me," Ren Zhizhe said with a smile. "I've finished all the work I needed to do, and I really haven't had much to do lately."
Have you finished all the work you needed to do?
What does this mean? Do the vengeful spirits in this world still have jobs like they do in the human world?
Song Yufei felt this was a bottomless pit, and fearing things might go wrong if she continued the conversation, she didn't dare to ask any more questions.
But it seems like Ren Zhizhe will be coming for the next few days?
Song Yufei forced a smile.
"Thank you so much."
Okay, that's good.
……
Beixia Hotel.
The shady real estate agent is back.
He's been very busy these past few days.
Busy dealing with things at the ghost casino.
To be honest, he really didn't want to get involved in this matter. After all, what did it have to do with him that some ghost had blown things up and was being targeted?
Unfortunately, he had reasons for having to do it.
Count Golos's military intimidation was one aspect. Another was his own core rule of killing.
His core rules of killing did not allow him to leave Count Golos unattended.
Unless Count Golos is willing to die?
But it's also a pity.
Count Golos has many tricks up his sleeve, his methods are extremely ruthless, and he is very difficult to kill.
After all, she owns an entire manor, so her strength is undoubtedly among the best of the great demons.
Working with this kind of thing puts a lot of pressure on the shady real estate agents!
Pushing open the door to the room, he immediately saw Count Golos sitting quietly on the sofa in the main hall.
The count's eyes had long since turned into worm eyes.
As soon as the door opened, she looked over and stared intently at the ghost real estate agent.
She didn't say anything, but just kept staring, as if waiting for the ghost agent to speak first.
Seeing this, the shady agent stood at the door and did not go any further inside.
"The situation at the 'ghost casino' has been temporarily brought under control."
He was the first to speak.
Count Golos was still staring at him, still silent.
The ghost broker closed the door expressionlessly and sat down opposite the Earl.
"You're lucky; I guess only I can cover up the trouble you caused."
However, Count Golos remained silent.
Her insect-like eyes moved slightly, as if observing or scrutinizing.
This time, the ghost broker remained silent. He was observing the count's reaction, waiting for Count Golos to speak.
His judgment was correct. Because, after staring at him for a while, Count Golos did indeed speak.
"Why did you take that human to the hospital?"
"To see a doctor," the quack intermediary answered crisply, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
Count Golos narrowed his insect-like eyes slightly.
see a doctor?
That's true. But what exactly is the illness? We'd need to explain that in detail.
The outline of the ghost intermediary was slowly reflected in those compound eyes, as if dissecting every inch of his expression and every subtle muscle movement.
"To see a doctor." She repeated the word, her tone as flat as if she were reading an insignificant report. "Since when have you become so concerned about human life and death?"
"That human is very important now," the ghost intermediary replied to Count Golos in a somewhat ambiguous way. "You know that too. And it's 'human' that's important."
He deliberately emphasized "human beings".
Upon hearing this, Count Golos's insect-like eyes finally returned to normal: "Oh dear, is your motive based on that person?"
The broker didn't answer immediately.
He carefully observed Countess Golos's expression. Seeing that the countess wouldn't suddenly erupt in anger anytime soon, he then tried to continue speaking.
"It's good that you know."
"Oh dear, but it's too late." Count Golos gently fanned himself with his folding fan. "That human has already become a part of me. Although he is still human, the only way for that hospital to cure him is to remove his brain and replace it with a new one."
Ghosts are not such inconvenient beings; of course, they can have their brains replaced.
But humans can't do that.
Especially people like Song Yufei who received special care from the Countess.
If it were merely a simple parasite, perhaps a craniotomy might offer a sliver of hope. However, the caterpillar that burrowed into Song Yufei's brain had completely fused with it, leaving no hope of separation.
"At most, I will simply stop modifying that human body."
"That's settled then." The ghost broker stood up, preparing to leave.
"Where are you going again?"
"Go and clean up the mess you left behind."
"Oh dear! What a mess! There's no need to deal with it at all. I'm already being very merciful by not destroying that place!"
The shady real estate agent pretended he hadn't heard anything.
There are many things behind the ghost casino.
It involves many forces.
If left unattended, given his current strength, he would definitely die before Count Golos.
"Ugh."
Life is truly tragic for a ghost.
If Ren Zhizhe hadn't contacted him, he wouldn't be in such a predicament now.
But all of this should be coming to an end soon, right?
That human was exceptional; even while hospitalized, he was able to keep Ren Zhizhe in check.
Ren Zhizhe probably wouldn't be too disgusted, otherwise he wouldn't bring human food to visit that insignificant human every day.
Thinking of this, the ghost broker took out the seashell beetle and planned to call the ghost hospital.
There was no point in keeping that human hospitalized any longer; it even caused Ren Zhizhe some trouble.
Well then, it's time to discharge that human from the hospital.
……
The faceless female ghost was confined to the Northern Wilderness Hotel for one and a half days.
In other words, Jiang Xiaowei has not eaten or drunk anything for a long time.
During this time, she had been trying her best to conserve her energy. She slept almost constantly, and even when she couldn't sleep, she would lie still.
At first, she was able to sleep quite well. There were no people or ghosts disturbing her in the solitary confinement cell, and she actually rested for a while.
But hunger soon seized her, pulling her from her sleep.
stomachache.
My stomach hurts from hunger.
But there was nothing Jiang Xiaowei could do but endure it as much as possible. However, what was more deadly than hunger was thirst, which made her throat extremely dry and uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the confinement period was not long, only a day and a half, and she eventually made it through.
But since then, the faceless female ghost has taken over her body again.
After leaving the confinement cell, the faceless female ghost immediately carried her dismembered body parts and headed towards the hospital.
The faceless female ghost completely ignored Jiang Xiaowei's physical condition and forcibly dragged this already terrible body to the hospital.
She was going to the ghost hospital in the city center.
Because in her current state, if she went to the clinic, she would most likely perish there and be turned into a pile of vengeful ghost materials by the clinic owner.
During this time, she reviewed Jiang Xiaowei's memories several times before finally confirming that the other party had not caused any new trouble in the confinement room.
Even so, she was still furious.
An invitation is considered a very unlucky thing.
Invitations never fail to arrive.
If the holder dies, the invitation will automatically find a new holder based on the rules of killing, the cause of death, and other relevant factors.
In other words, if Jiang Xiaowei dies, then the faceless female ghost will have to go to the Bone Manor in her place.
Therefore, an invitation can significantly reduce the murderous desire of a vengeful spirit towards its holder.
But one can imagine how dangerous a place is if it can send out invitations.
Most invitations are not sent from the locations of dungeons in the game. In other words, once an invitation is sent to a player, they are very likely to be placed in a solo dungeon.
Therefore, although the invitation is a kind of lifesaver, if a player fails to transfer the invitation, it is almost certain death.
Fortunately, the invitation in Jiang Xiaowei's hand was issued relatively late, giving the faceless female ghost enough time to go to the hospital and heal herself.
The problem is that we can't kill this human.
But that only means she can't kill him. That doesn't stop her from imprisoning and torturing this human to vent her anger.
In short, the faceless female ghost's malice and hatred towards Jiang Xiaowei intensified.
She planned to torture this human half to death after she recovered. Then, she'd leave him barely alive and dump him in the slums.
The vengeful spirits in the slums would surely be unable to resist and would kill this human on the spot.
At that point, the invitation will naturally become entangled with those bastards in the slums.
She thought her idea was absolutely brilliant.
This not only absolved them of responsibility but also harmed the slums, further benefiting the Beihuang Hotel's power struggle over this slum area.
The faceless female ghost dragged her mutilated body through the gates of the ghost hospital. At the same time, the vengeful ghosts waiting for their turn all raised their heads once again.
But unlike their previous excitement when they met Ren Zhizhe, this time, their faces were filled with disgust.
"What are you looking at?"
The faceless female ghost's mood instantly turned extremely bad.
However, she was met with silence.
The vengeful spirits glanced at her briefly before quickly looking away.
No ghost spoke to them, nor did any ghost pounce on them.
The faceless female ghost snorted coldly and ignored them, dragging her body toward the registration window.
The registration window was pitch black, making it impossible to tell whether it was a person or a ghost inside. Before the faceless female ghost could even get close, a piece of paper floated out, with something scrawled on it.
Jiang Xiaowei didn't understand what was written there. But the faceless female ghost seemed to have understood it, so she went straight upstairs.
She was going to the fourth floor.
She quickly went up to the first and second floors. But when she passed the third floor, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.
There happened to be a vengeful ghost walking towards the stairwell on the third floor.
Upon closer inspection, the vengeful ghost turned out to be Ren Zhizhe.
"How is that possible?"
The faceless female ghost was terrified.
Why is this guy here?
Why now of all times?
She wanted to back away quickly.
However, Jiang Xiaowei's physical condition was too poor, and the faceless female ghost retreated too hastily, so she couldn't stand up and fell directly to the ground.
They made quite a noise when they fell to the ground.
Now it's impossible for them to go unnoticed.
"Um?"
Ren Zhizhe uttered a questioning sound. Immediately afterward, both Jiang Xiaowei and the faceless female ghost heard footsteps approaching from afar.
Without a doubt. They didn't even need to think; they knew who had been attracted.
"Damn it!"
"That's wonderful!"
