The ward where Gou Jie was staying was a high-level special care unit in the hospital.

Because of the special circumstances of his case, he was the only patient on the entire floor.

But even so, when Gou Wei led the six upstairs, it attracted quite a number of onlookers eager to watch the spectacle.

"Please, masters, perform your rituals in this corridor!"

As soon as Gou Wei spoke, the six exchanged glances but no one made a move.

They all knew what the other was thinking.

Who wouldn't be tempted by the reward Gou Wei offered?

Given Gou Wei's wealth, which exceeded a hundred billion, he would at least offer tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands!

Yet...

While they were called "masters," they knew their own limitations.

Performing in front of the police was truly a daunting task for them!

"Ahem!"

Seeing the six standing motionless like posts, Gou Wei couldn't help but cough and look displeased.

Seeing the "God of Wealth" getting angry, the six could only take out their prepared tools and start their performances.

The monk beat his wooden fish and chanted sutras.

The Daoist brandished a wooden sword and burned yellow paper.

The missionary held a cross in one hand and the Bible in the other.

The Feng Shui master held a compass, muttering incantations.

Among the remaining two, one played gongs and drums, performing a spirit dance, while the other invited a deity to possess him, rolling on the ground.

Such a performance truly opened the eyes of the onlookers.

Not only did they applaud, but some even shouted cheers.

The entire scene was comparable to a star-studded concert.

Eventually, Director Wu couldn't bear the noisy commotion any longer; he began dispersing the crowd while stopping the master's embarrassing performances.

"What are you doing? What are you doing? I'm not finished yet!"

"Why are you stopping me? I still need to save Young Master Gou!"

"I've only chanted a third of my sutra!"

"Don't move, I've invited the Fox Immortal to possess me, don't get hurt!"

"Where's my shoe? Has anyone seen my shoe?"

With the effort of the police officers, the six masters obediently stood aside.

Gou Wei's face was stormy.

He had previously hoped for a miracle cure.

But damn it, now it seemed like these six were all comedy actors, as fake as can be!

"Get out!"

"All of you, get lost!"

Gou Wei cursed with bad temper.

"Chairman Gou, what about the appearance fee?"

"Yeah, Mr. Gou, we couldn't have come here for nothing, right?"

"We've performed the rituals, invited the spirits, shouldn't we get something?"

"Amitabha! Chairman Gou, this humble monk..."

The six masters were about to say more, but at Gou Wei's glance, the bodyguards standing beside him approached.

The four bodyguards were tall and strong, full of intimidation.

The six masters compared themselves against them, then turned and left cursing under their breath.

"Mr. Gou, you should leave too!"

Director Wu said, stifling a laugh.

"I'm not leaving! I want to see exactly what is harming my son!"

Gou Wei shook his head and said.

"Mr. Gou, please do not interfere with our police work!"

Director Wu emphasized with a blank expression.

Gou Wei chuckled softly, not arguing further.

He walked to the end of the corridor, pulled out his phone, and made a call.

Shortly after, Director Wu's phone rang.

He took out his phone and his face darkened immediately.

"You can stay to watch your son, but no one else!"

Director Wu said firmly.

Gou Wei nodded with a smile, waving away his bodyguards and lawyer.

Time slowly moved forward.

At the stroke of midnight, the familiar black fog appeared in the ward once again.

"This...this..."

Gou Wei's eyes widened, unable to believe what he was seeing.

In that moment, his worldview of over fifty years completely collapsed!

Inside the black fog, he couldn't see, hear, or feel anything.

A fear unlike anything he had known gripped his heart tightly.

Luckily, the black fog came quickly and left quickly.

"Let's go!"

Director Wu glanced at the hospital bed; sure enough, Gou Jie had vanished once again.

"I...I..."

Gou Wei wanted to ask something, but was so consumed by fear that he couldn't form a complete sentence.

Seeing Director Wu and others run out of the ward, he wanted to follow.

But, unfortunately, he was unable to muster the strength!

His legs were as weak as noodles, lacking even the strength to stand.

Helplessly, he could only watch as Director Wu and the others left.

"Damn! What the hell is this?"

Just after cursing, Gou Wei suddenly felt a sharp pain at the back of his neck, as if bitten by a bug.

Before he could reach back to swat it, everything went black, and he lost consciousness.

On the other side, Director Wu and his team followed their previous route, driving in pursuit again.

Within a few minutes, they caught up with the fleeing Gou Jie, just like last time.

Except, this time, there was a hazy white figure on Gou Jie's back.

"Director, this..."

The police officer was stupefied.

Director Wu's brow furrowed as he swallowed hard.

At that moment, a chill ran through him, making his scalp tingle and spine shiver.

Yet even so, he kept his gaze on that white figure.

Judging from years of investigative experience, the white figure's build was strikingly similar to that of Xie Qingying, as described in the files!

Could it really be Xie Qingying?

But hadn't Xie Qingying already died?

Director Wu took a deep breath and leaned out of the car window, shouting: "Xie Qingying, is that you?"

At the shout, the white figure on Gou Jie's back slowly turned its head.

It was a gentle and pure face, though somewhat blurry, everyone recognized it at once.

It was indeed Xie Qingying!

What should we do now?

Everyone, including Director Wu, was dumbfounded.

In the silence, they found themselves once again at the foot of the commercial building.

"Sigh!"

Director Wu stepped out of the car, looked up at the tower, and couldn't help but sigh.

No wonder Gou Jie always reappeared at the foot of this commercial building after disappearing.

Because this was where Xie Qingying had fallen.

The unconscious Gou Jie was quickly found.

This time, his condition was different from the last.

Yesterday, Gou Jie had been unconscious due to massive blood loss.

Today, while still unconscious, his body was peppered with bean-sized black lumps.

At a glance, it resembled the back of a toad.

"Hiss..."

This sight made Director Wu and the others gasp.

Fortunately, none of them had a phobia of clustered objects; otherwise, they surely would have panicked.

"Send him to the hospital, let's get him checked."

Director Wu sighed deeply.

This case has surpassed their ability to handle, and it seems it should be reported...
