Chapter 302: Spirit

Jiang Cheng didn’t put his guard down as he walked downstairs. He tried to move along the wall and stayed away from the costumes. Shi Liaozhi was definitely dead. He worried that the ghost would come after him next. Plus, there was an unknown factor in An Xuan.

He looked around. The red costume was in the middle of the room. A breeze picked up. The costume’s skirt and sleeves swayed as if coming alive. He didn’t head for the door but the window he had jumped through earlier. He purposely left a gap before, but the gap was gone. He knew it was that bastard, An Xuan, who did this. He probably had left already. Through the mirror, he spotted the ghost on the bed. Then, he found an excuse and left.

Thankfully, Jiang Cheng was cautious. He knew he couldn’t stay there any longer. He opened the window slightly and glanced out through the gap. He paid attention to blind spots like the space right underneath the window. Someone could hide them with a weapon to ambush him. Thankfully, An Xuan was not him. There was no one outside the window.

After leaping out ungracefully, Jiang Cheng ran outside the yard. However, he only took the first step when he heard a loud bang coming from upstairs. After a series of commotion, a large object fell from upstairs.

With just a glance, Jiang Cheng started to run. He believed it was... a person. It was either Shi Liaozhi’s body or the ghost.

To Jiang Cheng’s consternation, after the person fell to the ground, they rolled around and climbed up. Then, they chased after Jiang Cheng on all fours.

Hearing the commotion, Xia Meng and Fatty, who were hiding, came out of their hiding spots. Jiang Cheng was fast. He reached them almost instantly. “Stop him!” Jiang Cheng shouted at the stunned Xia Meng. As he ran past Fatty, he grabbed the latter’s arm and continued to run. Fatty was still confused, but he subconsciously followed the Doctor’s orders. He waved his stubby arms around. He pulled the Doctor along with him. “Doctor, why are we running?”

“Ghost,” Jiang Cheng answered succinctly.@@@@

“But it is Shi Liaozhi who was chasing after you!” Fatty’s voice carried through the wind, “Is he the ghost in disguise?”

“Shi Liaozhi?” Jiang Cheng slowed down.
