C29 Decapitation of Body and Head
If I admit it, I'll have to tell Chiang Kai-shek, and I'll have to tell Lipei that I warned him because I saw something wrong with him, and if I say he's a Puppeteer, the police will think I'm lying, and they'll pester me.
Therefore, I said to him, "It should be the first type. I rarely come into contact with her, nor did I warn her that she was in danger or anything."
"Alright, I understand. Sorry for bothering you."
As he was about to hang up, I hurriedly asked, "May I ask where you were? When did you find out that she died? We were not told about her death at the company. We don't know that she died."
Logically speaking, if Li Pepi died last night, the police would have let the company know about it, and the company would have let our colleagues know too.
"The body of the deceased was accidentally discovered by someone at about one o'clock this afternoon in a bush on the Flower Garden Road, and after investigation and forensic examination, the victim died at around 9.30 last night. His body was decapitated and his head was no longer in sight. That's all I can say. Goodbye. "
With that, he hung up.
I was stunned on the spot, her head was actually taken away. It's the same situation as Lil 'Marshal Liu, except the location is different. The Garden Road, however, is actually close to the Thousand Treasures Road!
It seemed that Jiang Jiancai, the Ghost Control, had cut her head off and taken it to the basement at 173 Marlboro Road.
I didn't expect Lipei to be dead after all. There was an eighty to ninety percent chance that the Xianghe Hospital was her ghost, but I didn't know why Marshal Liu couldn't tell that she was of the same species, and why he wanted me to stay in such a gloomy place like that.
Uncle Police's call came just in time. If it had been any later, I would have gone back to the hospital and completely gotten into her trap.
What the nurse said was true. There were no patients in the hospital yesterday.
Knowing all of this, I didn't want to go over and throw away my life. I planned to go straight home.
However, at this time, Marshal Liu spoke up, "Don't be hasty and go anywhere. I feel that this matter is very strange."
"What's fishy?" I asked.
"The Li Pepe you saw just now was a human. I dare to pat my chest and guarantee it. Although I haven't been a ghost for long, I'm not one of them. I know it the moment I hear it." It said.
"Then how do you explain the police finding her body?" I asked.
"It's easy to explain. The most likely explanation is that Jiang Kangming killed another person and took her head away, leaving behind Li Pepe's ID card and other stuff. The police mistakenly thought it was Li Pepe who died." It said.
I frowned. It seemed reasonable, but it didn't make sense. There was no reason for a ghost to control Chiang Kai-shek's actions.
"Maybe there's a reason for us to tame ghosts. It's just that we don't know about it yet." It said.
"Well, even if the Ghost Control Jiang Kuang killed another person to replace Li Pepe, if Li Pepe really didn't die, the police would soon know that it wasn't her who died. Isn't it just a waste of effort for the Ghost Control?" "No," I said.
"Hehe, you're pretty smart, but do you really think the current Li Pei is normal?" It laughed sinisterly.
"Wh …" "What do you mean?" I asked.
"My meaning is very clear. Since the ghost can control Jiang civilization, then Li Pepe will be no problem. After being controlled, will Li Pepe still say that she is Li Pepe?" It said.
"This... It can't be, why would a ghost servant control her and even make her hide her name? " I asked.
"Who can say for sure, but there is one thing that will not change. The final goal of acting like a ghost is to … "I'll kill you!" It said.
My heart gave a jolt, and I immediately understood that the trick of playing the ghost seemed to be quite profound, and it confused me.
This explained why Lipei, who was not a ghost, stayed in the abandoned ward on the seventh floor. It was because she did not have an ID certificate, so she could not be hospitalized, but she was secretly taken to that floor by a ghost, which was the real reason why the nurse did not know of this patient.
Of course, the way the Ghost controlled Lipei was different from the way he controlled Chiang Kai-shek. She was clearly not deprived of her memory and directly recognized me. Even Marshal Liu was unable to tell that she had already been controlled.
I really don't know what the ghost is up to.
"Hehe, if you want to know, then treat her like the her of the past. You can go and find her now." Marshal Liu said gloomily.
I immediately shuddered and said angrily, "Can you not laugh so sinisterly?"
"Uh, sorry my wife, I'm a ghost, I'm used to laughing like this." It said.
"Tsk, you've only been a ghost for a few days, you scum." I said disdainfully.
"No matter what, he is a ghost." It was not convinced.
"Yo, you're still proud of being a ghost." "No," I said.
It immediately fell silent.
I also took my mind off it, and wondered if I should go and see Lipei. I wondered what the danger would be if I did not go, and what the Ghost was going to do with her.
In the end, I decided to head straight to the seventh floor after knowing that there were tigers on the mountain.
"Aiya, why are you so slow? My stomach is flat from hunger." she complained.
I sneered in my heart. On the surface, I said, "I don't know what you like to eat. It took some time to pick something."
"Alright, I want to eat it."
After saying that, she started to eat. I pretended to play with my phone, but in reality, I was wary of her taking any actions.
However, after a while, when she finished eating and didn't do anything to me, Marshal Liu said to me, "It's almost midnight. The atmosphere on this floor is very strange. I urge you to leave immediately."
Hearing this, my heart tensed up, but before I could figure out the purpose of controlling Lipei, I said, "What's there to be afraid of? With Ghost Fang, even if there's a ghost, there shouldn't be a need to fear, right?"
"You're thinking too much. There's a limit to the number of times ghost teeth can be used. Do you think that the willpower that the Soul Summoning Ghost left behind is limitless? If a few more ghosts appear, you'll be finished." It said.
What! If there are actually restrictions, then I have to leave quickly.
I got up quickly and said to Lipei, "I have to go back. It's late."
"No, I'm afraid to stay here alone." she begged, holding me back.
This was all an act, so naturally, I ignored her and wanted to throw her off. However, being controlled by a ghost, her strength was so great that I couldn't get rid of her. It seemed that midnight was about to arrive.
At this moment, she suddenly revealed a very strange smile. "You've taken the bait."
