Chapter 24 Guess
Chapter 24 Speculations

Jiang Li took off her shoes and stepped on Bai Yanliang's shoulders as carefully as possible, but... she obviously underestimated Bai Yanliang's strength.

Although Bai Yanliang looks like he has a normal body shape, his body is well-trained. If he takes off his clothes, Jiang Li will definitely not have any unnecessary worries.

"what……"

Jiang Li let out a light cry, and the shoulders he was standing on suddenly became higher. Bai Yanliang stood up straight in an instant without any effort.

He is so strong...

Such a strange thought suddenly flashed through Jiang Li's mind.

"Can you make it, Miss Jiang?"

Bai Yanliang's call brought Jiang Li back to her senses. She quickly grabbed the top edge of the water tank, stood on tiptoes and exerted force with her arms.

Fortunately, Jiang Li is no longer a newcomer in the Fog Concentration. In order to survive, everyone in the Fog Concentration will exercise desperately after the first time. After all, sometimes running a little faster can mean the difference between life and death.

Therefore, Jiang Li’s physique is not bad.

Her body slowly rose, and her right hand gradually exerted force on the lid on the top of the water tank.

The lid was not locked, but with some force a gap gradually appeared.

Jiang Li swallowed, carefully stuck his head out and looked into the water tank.

A bit cold...

Some black...

Other than that, nothing seemed unusual.

However, just as Jiang Li was thinking this, the water in the tank began to surge!
Almost in an instant, a pale corpse floated up from the bottom of the water tank!
Jiang Li's eyes widened, and she looked on, suppressing her fear and nausea.

That's a woman.

A huge woman!

To be precise, it was a huge corpse!

The urge to vomit suddenly came up. Jiang Li just took a quick look and his stomach was churning with acid.

The female corpse in the water tank was already highly decomposed, and her lips were swollen and white.

Her chest and abdomen seemed to be filled with a large amount of water, and were now bulging into a ball shape, and her limbs were soaked to become fat and thick.

But what is strange is that such a disgusting and rotten corpse does not have even the slightest smell?

"Put me down!" Jiang Li shouted hurriedly.

Bai Yanliang didn't know what she saw, but hearing the urgency in her words, he quickly put her down.

Jiang Li immediately got down from Bai Yanliang's shoulders and rushed to the side without even having time to put on her shoes. Bai Yanliang and Xu Zhian looked at her.

She was bent over and retching.

Because she hadn't eaten anything, all she vomited out was sour water.

When she finally recovered, she said palely, "It's a female corpse. I can't tell who it is. It's completely swollen."

After hearing Jiang Li's words, Bai Yanliang didn't react much, but Xu Zhian started vomiting with a "wow".

But he remembered today's breakfast.

This damn hotel, is it using water from a tank?
"Ms. Jiang, is there only one body?" Bai Yanliang looked at her and asked seriously.

Jiang Li nodded in confirmation.

Bai Yanliang looked at the other two water tanks next to each other and said, "Well... I'll have to trouble you twice more."

Jiang Li shook her head slightly. It was Bai Yanliang who was in trouble. She resisted the discomfort in her stomach, stepped on Bai Yanliang's shoulders again, and looked at the second water tank.

Unlike before, this time the body did not float up suddenly. When Jiang Li saw him, he was already floating in the water tank.

"Brother Xu! It's him! The unrecognizable ghost you just mentioned!" Jiang Li suppressed his nausea and looked at the male corpse carefully. He immediately screamed after scanning his face.

Just now Xu Zhian said that he was blocked by two ghosts, one of which was disguised as Bai Yanliang, but "his" true appearance was a man with a bloody face and all his facial features smashed.

Jiang Li was put down again. This time she was much better. Although she was still retching, at least she didn't vomit.

There is only one water tank left. If there is still a female corpse in it, the matter will become clear.

Jiang Li was already very skilled. He stepped on Bai Yanliang's shoulders and pushed open the water tank with ease.

This time, even though she was well prepared, everything she saw before her made her mental preparations come to naught.

"Huh? There's nothing in this tank!"

Jiang Li confirmed it again as he spoke.

But... there's really nothing.

The dim water tank was filled with water, so one couldn't even see any floating foreign objects, let alone a corpse.

Oops.

Bai Yanliang's brain was working rapidly, and something was wrong with his reasoning.

Things... don't seem to be that simple?
Bai Yanliang put Jiang Li down. After Jiang Li put on his shoes, he and Xu Zhian looked at each other.

The two didn't know why Bai Yanliang's expression suddenly changed. This degree of emotional change was already incredible in Bai Yanliang.

You know, he is a man who can still smile even when seeing ghosts.

"Mr. Bai, is there any problem?"

After thinking about it, Xu Zhian asked.

Hearing this, Bai Yanliang withdrew his thoughts and nodded.

He looked at the two and said, "There are three ghosts and only two bodies. One is missing."

Jiang Li and Xu Zhian looked at each other again and saw the confusion in each other's eyes. There was indeed one body missing, so what did that mean?

Bai Yanliang saw the confusion of the two people and explained, "The fundamental purpose of our investigation of ghosts is to find its only weakness, figure out its cause of death and the murder weapon. It will be afraid of the thing that killed it. But now, two bodies have been found hidden in the water tank, which means that the deaths of the two people are likely to be caused by one person, or one person was killed and the body was thrown into the water tank by another person, and then the person who found it imitated the crime and threw the second body in."

When Bai Yanliang said this, both of them understood what he meant.

The third body and a female body have not been found yet!
Who killed her?

How did he die?

Even according to Bai Yanliang's second speculation, there is still one less murderer!

Seeing Jiang Li and the slightly weak Xu Zhian also fell into deep thought, Bai Yanliang stopped talking.

However, he still had a guess that he didn't say out loud.

That's why?
Why did the three dead people become ghosts?

Is there something wrong with this place, or are the rules of Wu Ji like this?

If there is something wrong with this place, then the number of people who have died on the land of Ruyi Hotel from ancient times to the present must be more than three!
So... it's not that there was something wrong with Ruyi Hotel in the first place, but something changed later that caused all the people who died here to become evil spirits?

Bai Yanliang frowned slightly. If his thoughts were known to other people in the fog, he would definitely be labeled a madman.

Because... he was actually exploring the origin of ghosts!
