uld not speak recklessly about ghosts and spirits. Amitabha Buddha, Amitabha Buddha, may the Bodhisattvas protect me, may the Bodhisattvas protect me...""You idiot, which Bodhisattva would bless you D...Businesspeople are more particular about feng shui, and people in China like auspicious things, lucky charms, and they also like to feel at ease.

I want to ask someone to take a look at anything related to project start-up, construction, building renovation, or moving.

Although it's not easy to find a mage just by looking around, you could at least check an old calendar, right

At the very least, basic feelings should be able to be felt — where you feel comfortable and where you feel uncomfortable.

The compass needle hung listlessly, following the path of the yin energy. It pointed towards a dark and desolate void on that half-lit side.

"Hey hey, what are you doing!" The security guard ran over.

I put away the compass. My brother said, “We’re from out of town, we came to take a look at this industrial park, aren’t you guys looking for investment”

The security guard's expression softened a bit: "Are you here to register a company or start a factory We have both, but the business development department has already finished work for the day."

My brother passed me a cigarette and said, "Let's just take a look around first. We can go to the business development department tomorrow... That place looks pretty big, and it doesn't seem like any companies or factories have moved in yet, which is good."

He pointed toward the pitch-black darkness.

The security guard was taken aback and said, “That area doesn't seem to have started attracting businesses yet... You might want to check out other places. Areas AB are pretty popular. Why would you choose an empty one”

Hearing this, the security guard seemed to know something.

That's easy, my brother patted the security guard on the shoulder and asked him to take a walk around the park.

The security guard was originally on patrol, and someone was following him around. He seemed pretty happy about it and first took us to areas A and B to have a look.

Within ten minutes, my brother had become acquainted with the people there. He even gave them a red envelope containing 200 yuan, saying it was for good luck and to do business smoothly. He asked them to introduce him properly.

The security guard introduced the first two zones with a lot of chatter, but when my brother asked about Zone C, he frowned.

"Boss, to be honest with you, don't go over there," the security guard said to my brother.

"Why is that I invested a lot of money. I want the administration building and factory to be close, that area looks pretty good, so large." My brother, with his generous wealth, pointed at the entire district.

"Are you here on business" the security guard asked.

"Of course, didn't you see that I brought my little honey and my assistant Just finished a dinner appointment and came over to take a look."

"You're in business... you should know that popularity is key, this place is too remote, not good." The security guard seemed to be trying to persuade us.

My brother caught a hint of something amiss, so he quickly stuffed in some more money and asked, “Isn’t this project supposed to be a provincial demonstration project It's going to heat up later on. Why is it quiet now”

The security guard looked around. It was quite deserted in the late evening with hardly anyone around. He lowered his voice and said, "To be frank with you, that piece of land isn't good... I don't even dare to patrol over there."

It turns out this security guard is a local, his hometown is right in this area. Because of this project, he was relocated, and they arranged for him to work as a security guard.

Before the area was demolished, it used to be an abandoned small factory.

The small factory was quite prosperous in the early 1990s. It was a toy factory, but it was later destroyed by a fire.

"Over a dozen people were burned to death…" the security guard whispered.

Back then, communication was nowhere near as developed as it is today. Even if ten or so people had died in a fire, it would only make the local newspaper.

Later, in the year 2000, the village committee decided to repair and renovate the building, intending to use it as a factory. However, another worker committed suicide by jumping from the building there.

After that, people were in a panic and just left it be. It was left there for over ten years until last year when land acquisition and demolition took place, directly blasting and demolishing it.

"The building has already been demolished, and it's been two years. It should be fine by now, right" my brother asked.

The security guard rubbed his hands together: "Anyway, as soon as I get close to that area, I still get goosebumps... Also, the day I saw the deputy manager almost..."

Deputy Manager I winked at my brother.

Generally, the immediate relatives of leaders cannot hold top positions to avoid conflicts of interest.

My brother pretended to be stupid and asked, "Isn't your deputy manager surnamed Wu I just had dinner with him."

"No, no, our deputy manager... he's the leader's son." The security guard whispered.

"What happened to him" I pressed.

The security guard rolled his eyes and said in a low voice, “These young masters don't know if they're playing dumb or what. That day I brought a new guy to check out Area C—I was scared myself, I didn't want to patrol Area C at night, so I took the newbie with me. It wasn't even time to clock out yet, and I saw the deputy manager walking listlessly towards the window.”

He licked his lips nervously and whispered, "I thought someone was calling him downstairs, or that he was going to the window for a smoke... But, but he actually just stepped out with one leg, and I screamed!"

"I frowned slightly. The official's wife had just mentioned that if this son wasn't kept in check, he had a tendency to jump from buildings."

"I shouted and ran over to him, scooping him up. He seemed to come back to his senses—I even suspected he was on drugs." The security guard frowned. "These second-generation officials and rich kids have no idea how they trample on lives every day."

He paused, then added, "But it's alright, it's only the second floor. Maybe he was dazed and thought it was the side door on the first floor."

"Where did you see him" I asked.

"It's the C area, because the A and B areas are full. He couldn't stand taking the elevator with people all day, so he moved his office to the street-facing side of the C area... That's why I said there's something strange about the C area..."

I looked at the building in the darkness. At this time, it was gloomy and empty, not showing too many abnormalities. The door was a keypad lock again. My brother couldn't pick it open, so I could only wait until dawn—

My phone suddenly started vibrating violently.

The number belonged to Wu Jingli, but when the phone was answered, it was Liu Daochang's hushed voice on the other end: "Miss Mu, you need to come quickly. I don't think this is an ordinary case of eerie and malevolent energy. Master He and I are afraid we can't contain it..."

"...Okay, I'll be there now." I replied.

My brother furrowed his brows: “Little Qiao, what did you promise him Why should Master He handle this! His attitude is like he wants us to take the blame. What gives him the right to just show up whenever he wants Such a brazen person!”

"Forget it, forget it... They're locals, of course they see us as outsiders, and we're competitors too..." I said while fastening my seatbelt, trying to reassure my brother with a smile.

"I just can't stand these people bullying you because you're so easygoing." My brother frowned and said, "From now on, don't bump into me. I won't practice or care, so I won't be polite to them."

My brother started the car, I sat in the back seat, and Xiao Shanming also maintained a polite distance, he was sitting in the co-pilot seat.

He turned his head to look out the car window and suddenly said in a puzzled tone: "Hey, didn't the security guard say that no one was living in Area C"

We looked on, and sure enough, there was a lit office in the C area where we had been just now.

"Probably just a security guard checking things out," my brother replied, driving the car out of the area.

“The layout here is obviously wrong. That Master He… could he be a fake” After the car passed through the back gate of the park, I frowned at the arrangement.

My brother hasn't responded yet, and a faint apparition appeared beside me. Jiang Qiyun came to see me very early today.

As soon as he appeared, I raised my hand and made a "shh" gesture.

Xiao Shanming was sitting in the front.

Jiang Qiyun smiled lightly, clasped the back of my neck and pulled me closer, landing a kiss on my lips.

Uh He seems in a good mood today

< > strange along the way... What could be hiding so well" I kept turning my head, looking out at the black night.My brother frowned, struggling to keep the car steady in the darkness. He said, "This old...
