I have a ghost diary

She finally got a good night's sleep last night and is still sleepy when she woke up today.

Chu Jiang walked towards the front desk, nodding as he went.

"It's strange that the young lady is leaving too. Luckily, some customers have already booked rooms online, otherwise I would be a little scared if I were all alone in this empty hotel."

"Let me give you a piece of advice," Chu Jiang tapped on the front desk, "You should hire one or two reliable employees; this is not an expense that can be saved."

Clearly, Chu Jiang was referring to the incident where Sun Xiaoman was kidnapped.

Sun Xiaoman nodded. "Actually, I had this idea after last time."

"But at that time, that dirty thing was still around me, so I had a bit of a 'what's the use' mentality and didn't do it."

"Don't worry, I've barely escaped with my life, so I'll put up the job ad today; or see if any cleaning ladies would be willing to work here long-term, and we'll provide accommodation."

"That's good. By the way, how did you know the rich girl was leaving?"

Sun Xiaoman looked at Chu Jiang with a strange expression, "Why did you give her such a nickname?"

“She told me this last night, saying she’s leaving today and asked me to keep it a secret, saying that if anyone asks in the future, I should say I’ve never seen her.”

Before Chu Jiang could answer, a voice rang out from behind, "I heard everything. Who's giving me a nickname?"

"Hello?" Chu Jiang casually picked up his phone, pretending to receive a call.

To his utter surprise, someone actually called at that moment; it was Fang Tianci's phone.

This made Chu Jiang's expression serious. He answered the call and walked over to the sofa, leaving Xu Xiaoxiao, who was wearing pajamas, talking to Sun Xiaoman.

As soon as the call connected, Fang Tianci's tone became somewhat urgent, "I'm in trouble. Can you come over to 18th Avenue? This is a temporary task I've specially assigned to you, and the reward is guaranteed to be generous."

Chu Jiang was a little surprised. "That's rare. You didn't use a commanding tone to tell me to come over. Tell me what happened first."

He wasn't stupid. Fang Tianci, such a volatile person, was actually speaking to him so politely. This could only prove one thing: Fang was in big trouble.

"I've been looking for ghosts to peek out from behind for the past two days, and I just ran into one not long ago."

"But it slipped through my fingers again, and I'm still alive and well. I'm sure you know what that means, right?"

Fang Tianci's tone carried an undercurrent of barely suppressed rage.

Chu Jiang also frowned slightly. According to the pattern of the ghost's murder, this person in charge is in big trouble now. Soon, he will have the idea of ​​losing something.

"Why don't you try self-harm? Maybe there's still hope."

Based on the observed patterns, it seems that ghosts do not have a supernatural effect on seriously injured passengers; instead, they seek out healthy replacements.

"I wasn't seriously injured in a traffic accident. I don't know if it will help if I hurt myself now. I can't afford to gamble!"

"That's it then. If you're late, you'll have to come and collect my corpse." With that, Fang Tianci hurriedly hung up the phone.

Chu Jiang wasn't in a hurry; he just fell into deep thought.

Indeed, if Fang Tianci made the wrong bet, he would have to face Ghost Probe with serious injuries, wouldn't that make him die even faster?

So he couldn't afford to gamble and had to ask someone for help.

Moreover, Chu Jiang was certain that this guy had found more than just one helper.

However, the officials in other cities probably wouldn't arrive so quickly, so he had to gather all the capable ghost masters in this city to help as soon as possible.

Will you go?

Chapter 53 Other Ghost Masters

To be honest, Chu Jiang didn't care about the generous reward Fang Tianci mentioned. What a person in charge offered was nothing compared to what the research institute offered.

However, Chu Jiang had been affected by the ghost peeking out, and even though he had been fine for the past few days, he was still worried about potential future problems.

So it's best to deal with that thing now, and going now would allow us to team up with others, which would reduce the risk considerably...

Having quickly made up his mind, Chu Jiang decided to finish this job before leaving Luozhou City, hoping everything would go smoothly and that he wouldn't cause any more trouble.

And so, Chu Jiang rose, bid farewell to the two women, and left the riverside inn without looking back. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, he would likely never return.

As Chu Jiang was leaving, the young heiress waved and called after him, "Wait! Can I talk to you about something?"

But Chu Jiang just waved his hand and ignored him.

They come from two different worlds. Even if Chu Jiang wanted to make money, he wouldn't do it to a rich young woman. Besides, why would he get involved when she's clearly having a conflict with her family?

Oh, by the way, the little girl ran away from home with a gun; this rich girl's background is quite something...

When Chu Jiang arrived on 18th Avenue, there was already temporary traffic control, so he had to get off the bus early at the intersection.

And as soon as I got out of the car, the assistant to the person in charge that I had met before, I think his name was Yang Xuan, came to greet me.

His expression was somewhat anxious. "Mr. Chu, several other ghost masters have already gone in and are near the scene of the incident."

"As for our person in charge, he is currently trying to stay away from this road, so please go and check it out first."

Chu Jiang nodded slightly, not believing that Fang Tianci was afraid of death.

If it were Chu Jiang, he would have done the same, because those whose heads were swapped by the ghosts clearly only encountered problems after returning to the scene of the incident.

However, just before entering the Great Dao, Chu Jiang casually asked, "What kind of person do you think Fang Tianci is?"

Yang Xuan paused for a moment, then replied with a wry smile, "A complicated person."

Chu Jiang nodded and walked forward.

......

Not long after, in the middle of 18th Avenue, Chu Jiang saw three men standing or squatting next to a half-wrecked black car.

One was a young man wearing a black trench coat and a black mask, who looked very mysterious.

One was a muscular, shirtless middle-aged man squatting on the ground smoking, who looked somewhat like a thug.

Another was a man with a somewhat effeminate appearance. He was well-dressed, wearing a purple tie and a Rolex watch, and seemed to have a certain status.

Upon seeing Chu Jiang approach, it was this last man who spoke first, a smile on his face, saying, "You're the newcomer Yang Xuan mentioned?"

"It's very difficult for newcomers to survive long in this industry. I'm not trying to be harsh, it's just the truth."

"If you're interested, you can come to our company soon. We have a powerful backer."

As he spoke, the man handed a business card to Chu Jiang.

Chu Jiang remained indifferent, took the document and glanced at it: Zheng Chengren, Deputy General Manager of Chengyi Company.

"Hey, big influence, huh? Kid, you better watch out. I heard the last newbie who went there died a violent death a few days later."

The man who was smoking finished speaking and exhaled a smoke ring.

This made Zheng Chengren frown. "Shi Tao, do you want to go against our company?"

Shi Tao remained silent, simply smoking with his head down, seemingly somewhat wary of Zheng Chengren and the so-called Chengyi Company behind him.

Seeing this, Zheng Chengren continued to look at Chu Jiang, his smile unchanged, "Last time, he didn't know the rules. He was a young man, too hot-tempered, and in the end, it made things very unpleasant for both sides."

“But I believe you’re a smart guy, young man.” He said, reaching out to pat Chu Jiang on the shoulder.

But Chu Jiang only took a step back.

This made Zheng Chengren somewhat embarrassed, so he withdrew his hand. At the same time, a hint of violence flashed in his eyes, but it was only fleeting.

"In short, our company can help ghost masters solve the troubles caused by the resurgence of vengeful ghosts. You can consider it if you are interested."

Chu Jiang seemed somewhat uninterested. "Can your so-called powerful organization compare to Research Institute No. 21?"

Zheng Chengren didn't expect Chu Jiang to say that. He paused for a moment before laughing and saying, "As expected of a newcomer, you haven't been possessed by a ghost for very long, have you?"

“I know you prefer to join the research institute and think it would be better to be associated with such official forces.”

"But do you think being in charge is a happy thing? That you have a lot of power? You should know that if a paranormal event occurs within the area under the jurisdiction of the person in charge, they are obligated to respond without any conditions and cannot refuse."

"On the other hand, the more supernatural powers are used, the faster the ghost master dies. So the position of person in charge has always been one with a very high attrition rate."

"If you actually join the research institute, you'll basically have no personal freedom, and besides, they might not even want you."

"Their assessment is very strict. You have to go through all kinds of psychological evaluations and tests. I heard it's very difficult to pass."

"Alright," the one wearing the black mask spoke up, "How much longer are you going to talk? Why don't you look around first?"

Zheng Chengren wasn't angry, but seemed somewhat wary of the mysterious man. "Whatever, I have no objection."

So the four of them split into two groups and began patrolling the empty No. 18 Avenue. According to Fang Tianci and his assistant, the ghost was likely waiting for Fang Tianci to return near this avenue.

The initial investigation naturally focused on the half-wrecked black sedan, but they found nothing.

They couldn't see any corpses or heads with the naked eye; the supernatural powers that gave them intuition also prevented them from discovering any dangerous places.

By the way, after officially entering this circle, Chu Jiang realized that he was actually a very special person.

First of all, not everyone will experience an increase in physical strength after being possessed by a ghost.

In the early stages, most people even became weaker because a ghost was residing inside them, constantly draining their life force and sustenance from them.

Only in the middle and later stages, after becoming more and more assimilated with demons and less and less like humans, will demon masters possess various abnormal physical abilities, such as being difficult to kill by physical forces, or having ghostly speed.

However, this period is also when the ghost masters are nearing their end, and some ghost masters have even lost their humanity at this time.

Chu Jiang, on the other hand, was quite different. After his resurrection, his physical attributes increased dramatically, with significant improvements in both speed and strength.

He originally thought this was normal, that everyone who was possessed by a ghost would be like this, but he never expected it to be completely different.

Chu Jiang could only interpret this as the Blood Hand Ghost being a special ghost, perhaps because it maintained a high degree of integrity.

Chapter Fifty-Four: The Goodwill Released Voluntarily

Speaking of completeness, we must mention the second point.

Many ghosts are actually incomplete, fragmented, or rather, they are separate parts of a ghost.

For example, a ghost peeking out has only a head, no body, and no limbs.

According to existing research, these ghosts are most likely not born this way; rather, their heads and bodies have separated for some reason.

As for the reason, there are many different opinions.
