Chapter 512: Are You Afraid of Ghosts?

“At White Birch Apartments, block four, apartment 514. It’s a rental apartment rented by that man. There are very few people in the vicinity. I did the joint cultivation with that man for a week without seeing anyone. A week later, that man did not come looking for me again, so I left the apartment and never returned,” Zhen Xiaoqing said.

As soon as she finished speaking, Beitang Lie’s expression changed.

“Why? Have you heard of this place?” Chi Jiao noticed that there was something wrong with his expression.

“I don’t really know much. I just heard that there are some ‘unclean’ things there.” Beitang Lie deliberately put on a stern expression.

“There seems to be such a rumor, especially in Room 514. I heard that it’s cursed. When I was asleep, I always felt like a ghost was pressing down on my bed,” Zhen Xiaoqing said seriously.

“You have to believe in science. Ghosts don’t exist. You were just scaring yourself,” Chi Jiao said calmly.

“Hey! That’s not true! Haven’t you heard that if you don’t respect ghosts and demons, they will come looking for you?” Beitang Lie said.

Chi Jiao raised her eyebrows as she observed his reaction. She asked in a shocked tone, “Are you afraid of ghosts?”

When Zhen Xiaoqing heard this, she laughed rudely at Beitang Lie.

Beitang Lie’s face turned pale. All sorts of conflicting expressions appeared on his face, making him look rather comical.

“Are you kidding me? I’m already an adult. Would I be afraid of ghosts? You’re insulting me by saying that,” he said stubbornly.

“Yes, it’s good that you’re not afraid. That’s perfect. Come with me to White Birch Apartments.” Chi Jiao had to go over and investigate.

Beitang Lie nearly fell off his chair. “Why me?!”

“Otherwise, are you planning to let me go alone?” Chi Jiao asked.

Beitang Lie looked very grim. He stammered, “But I have other tasks to do… Look, I have to sort out these written records. I can’t leave.”

“I didn’t ask you to sort out the records now. Be a good boy and come with me to the apartment. It won’t be a problem to sort out the records after we return tonight. Or… are you really afraid of ghosts?” Chi Jiao raised her eyebrows.

“I… I’m not afraid!” Beitang Lie straightened his neck and said stubbornly.

“Then, let’s go now. Hurry up. I want to go home before 9:00 PM.” Chi Jiao didn’t want to go back too late. Otherwise, not only would her father worry about her, but Brother Quan Jue would also be angry.

Beitang Lie watched as Chi Jiao left the room. She didn’t even give him a chance to reject her.

Beitang Lie looked like he was about to cry. He took a deep breath and mustered his courage to follow her.

There had been several homicides in White Birch Apartments. In each incident, one of the homeowners would just go crazy and kill his entire family. Five murder incidents occurred in just half a year, causing the property prices to fall. There were often rumors that the apartments were really haunted. If one came at night, not only would they see a red-dressed female ghost in the corridor, but they would also hear children crying as they lay in bed. They would even hear knocking at the door in the middle of the night. If they looked through the peephole, they would see a man with a kitchen knife covered in blood and trying to break in.
