Li Mu’s death was not as simple as imagined.

He is not an insignificant character, he is more like a banner to all members of the Mist Group.

Now, the flag has fallen.

Li Mu's death caused a strong sense of unease, and everyone had to think about one question.

Li Mu is dead...what about me?

Can we really escape the curse of Wu Ji...

Is the file that the mysterious person sent to the group and the description about the key true?

There is no fool among those who have survived to this day, and everyone has noticed some problems to a greater or lesser extent.

For example...the brother and sister Ren Wudao and Yu Sheng.

One appeared strangely, and the other disappeared mysteriously.

Why should Wu Ji make changes for them?

This is a topic that cannot be avoided. There must be very important secrets hidden in these two siblings.

After the last mission was completed, only Bai Yanliang, Xu Zhifei, and Qi Nian returned to Yecheng first, while the others... had already started to act.

For example, Du Shangjing.

With one arm broken, he was still lying on the hospital bed, looking out the window quietly.

Originally, he didn't notice anything wrong with this mission until his arm was not repaired after it was over, and then he realized something.

"Mr. Gu, can you please do me a favor?"

Du Shangjing did not look back at the elegant and quiet surgeon. He was very grateful to Gu Pingsheng for spending his precious time taking care of him.

"what's up?"

Gu Pingsheng pushed his glasses and did not refuse.

"Go to Li Mu's house and look for..."

Before Du Shangjing could finish his words, the door was suddenly pushed open.

The two of them looked towards the door. Wasn’t that tall and beautiful woman the famous star Feng Xiuxue?

She held a fruit basket in her left hand and a bouquet of flowers in her right hand, and smiled, "Did I interrupt your conversation?"

Du Shangjing smiled and shook his head, "No, thank you, Miss Feng."

Feng Xiuxue took light steps and placed the gifts on the small table beside the bed.

"I just overheard that Mr. Du seemed to want to investigate something about Li Mu?"

Du Shangjing and Gu Pingsheng were somewhat surprised by her outspokenness.

Feng Xiuxue is a very charming woman. This charm comes not only from her appearance and identity, but also from her mind and ability.

People with ability are always welcome in Wu Jue. More than one person has been interested in Feng Xiuxue, but no one can really stand by her side forever.

Du Shangjing also trusted Feng Xiuxue more. He and she were both old, and they had cooperated in life and death more than once. When he heard her asking about Li Mu, he no longer concealed it.

"In fact, Li Mu seemed to have a premonition that he would die a violent death. He asked me to do one thing before, which was... as soon as he died, I should immediately go to the place he rented in Liangcheng and find the things he hid."

Du Shangjing had no fear of Feng Xiuxue, and neither did Gu Pingsheng.

It is better to say that Gu Pingsheng treats everyone equally and he is truly calm.

"You happen to be here too. If possible, I would like to ask you and Mr. Gu to go to Liangcheng together to find the things that Li Mu left behind. If you go together, you can take care of each other. I am worried...what accidents might happen if I go alone..."

Du Shangjing turned his head and looked at his empty right arm, feeling a pang of sadness in his heart.

Du Shangjing's worries were not unreasonable. Since Li Mu had prepared for death in advance, it meant that he probably knew something, but he was powerless to resist.

That is definitely not the extent of offending criminal gangs.

Li Mu must have mastered something frightening.

For this... they even went so far as to silence him. Du Shangjing felt that this mission was so complicated, maybe it was a trap set up specifically for Li Mu.

This may be too biased, but getting rid of Li Mu must be one of their main goals.

This was a plan that killed several birds with one stone. From the very beginning, the balance of victory was tilting towards the other end.

Du Shangjing stared at Feng Xiuxue and Gu Pingsheng. He knew that these two would definitely not refuse because they also wanted to know the answer.

Why is Fog Assembly being targeted by unknown forces?

Moreover, the opponent's power was so exaggerated that it even penetrated into the fog...

Sure enough, Feng Xiuxue and Gu Pingsheng agreed to his request without hesitation.

The two immediately booked flights to Liangcheng and left in a hurry.

Du Shangjing looked at the ceiling blankly.

He really wanted to know why the world had become like this?

The fog seems to be about to end at any time, and their lives are in danger. At the same time, there are unknown forces lurking in the dark and secretly attacking them. The real world, which has been relatively normal... is now gradually becoming terrifying.

It seems... weirdness is invading.

"call……"

Du Shangjing exhaled a breath, closed his eyes, and murmured:
"You walk so easily..."

……

Feng Xiuxue looked at Gu Pingsheng beside her with curiosity.

Gu Pingsheng is not a newcomer. He is usually close to Song Que and Yu Wenxuan, so she doesn't know him very well.

He is not outstanding, of course, this does not refer to his appearance or ability, but his...personality.

Gu Pingsheng is a more low-key person than Bai Yanliang. Perhaps because he is a compassionate doctor, he is always kind to others when performing his tasks, but he remains calm.

In addition, Feng Xiuxue did not sense any signs of the key on him, so Gu Pingsheng did not come into her sight until today when the population of Wu Ji dropped sharply.

"Mr. Gu, where are you from?"

Feng Xiuxue asked curiously.

"Ghost town."

As soon as Gu Pingsheng opened his mouth, he said something that surprised Feng Xiuxue a little.

"A ghost town... the ghost culture there is indeed very attractive, but the ghosts in the legend are different from the ghosts we have encountered..."

"Ah."

Gu Pingsheng was not a talkative person either. Ever since he got off the plane, he noticed that Feng Xiuxue had been asking about him intentionally or unintentionally.

He kept evading the question and simply chose to remain silent if he didn't want to answer.

Feng Xiuxue was not angry either, and the two of them chatted casually like this.

Until I found Li Mu’s apartment building.

"Is this right here?"

Although Feng Xiuxue was asking, her tone was clearly one of certainty.

Gu Pingsheng didn't say anything. He looked up at the twenty-story apartment building.

The early summer sunshine completely enveloped the apartment, but what was strange was that just by getting a little closer to the apartment, he felt an alarming chill.

However, the residents coming in and out of the apartment looked normal and did not seem to notice anything unusual.

Feng Xiuxue also felt something strange, and her feelings were clearer than Gu Pingsheng's.

There is something dirty in this apartment.
