C7 Red and White Female Ghost

Early the next morning, Ye Cheng awoke to find several people encircling his bed, dressed in odd attire.

He had never laid eyes on these individuals before. Could they be new security guards? That didn't seem right; they were empty-handed, which ruled out the possibility of them being security personnel.

Finally, Ye Cheng's gaze settled on the intern, Jiang Mingyuan, who was standing at the head of the bed.

He sat up on the bed, his face contorted with rage.

"It was you! You injected me when I was off guard. You vile wretch, taking advantage of someone like that. You have lost my respect!"

Dean Chen Yangguang let out a resigned sigh, "He's lost his mind. He can't be the one you're looking for. Perhaps his earlier behavior led you to a misunderstanding."

Suddenly, a thought struck Ye Cheng, and he leaped to his feet, pointing an accusing finger at Chen Yangguang, "Was that woman last night your doing? How low can you stoop?"

"I knew something was off when a woman appeared out of nowhere after I had clearly mopped the floor yesterday. You wanted me to do extra work, didn't you? All for that measly space, you even resorted to drugging me!"

The members of the Supernatural Bureau, led by Wang Anshi, exchanged puzzled glances. "Chief, could we have actually got the wrong person?"

Wang Anshi recalled the surveillance footage, which seemed genuine.

"When is he ever lucid?"

Chen Yangguang simply shrugged, "Never."

"Director, we've been ordered by our superiors to resolve this issue promptly," announced the female officer as she entered with an authoritative tone.

The appreciation of beauty is universal; even the mentally disturbed can't help but give a beautiful woman a second glance.

Ye Cheng was no exception.

The female officer was strikingly attractive, with a shapely figure, fair skin, and delicate features, all accentuated by her snug uniform.

Feeling somewhat self-conscious, she lowered her head and positioned herself behind Wang Anshi.

The host's scanning mode has been initiated.

What need does the host have?

In an instant, through Wang Anshi's form, Ye Cheng saw the woman officer's flesh and blood transform into a skeletal structure.

A conspicuous black spot was visible in the pelvic region of her lower abdomen.

Xu Xiaoxiao, aged twenty-two, had suffered damage in her pelvic area due to malpractice during an abortion by an unscrupulous doctor.

Ye Cheng pointed at the policewoman's pelvic area and chuckled, "You don't seem like the type, but I didn't expect you've had an abortion. It's really not obvious."

Xu Xiaoxiao's cheeks turned crimson as she pointed at Ye Cheng and yelled, "Stop spouting nonsense. I've never had an abortion!"

He was a complete nutcase, oblivious to what should and shouldn't be said. Mistaking Xu Xiaoxiao's embarrassment for shyness, he raised his voice even louder.

"I'm not making this up. You better get it checked out soon. Waiting too long could be deadly."

Chen Yangguang felt a twinge of embarrassment, "I'm so sorry, he's always like this. Just ignore whatever he says."

Indeed, he was a madman. Who would take the words of a madman seriously? This made Wang Anshi question his own judgment, prompting him to leave the hospital room with his entourage.

In the director's office.

Wang Anshi inquired anxiously, "What does he usually do?"

"Normally? He fancies himself an alien and wraps himself in a blanket pretending to be a master when he's bored. But lately, he's been different. He's taken to using a soapbox, claiming to contact headquarters every day."

"Contacting headquarters?"

Chen Yangguang nodded, "Yes, he probably watched too many movies before. I should have never allowed outside contact with projectors; it's only worsened his condition."

To recruit Ye Cheng into the Supernatural Bureau, they needed to treat him first.

The morning sun was blazing. Ye Cheng stretched languidly in bed, wriggling about like a worm, much to the system's dismay.

System Notification: The host has successfully captured one Water Ghost and one Drown Ghost. The system rewards the host with one Clarity Pill.

The abrupt electronic voice startled Ye Cheng. As he sat up, a pill materialized in his hand, identical to those the doctors had given him.

"Didn't I already take one this morning? No more for me." Ye Cheng nonchalantly tossed the pill onto the floor.

System: ...

This was a pill that could clear one's mind. If only Ye Cheng had taken it, he would have regained full clarity. But he lost it, actually lost it!

The system was astounded beyond belief, a sensation it hadn't felt in a century!

Suddenly, a rustling noise came from outside. In no time at all, several people burst into Ye Cheng's room and swiftly installed a camera.

Ye Cheng was unfazed by their intrusion. Spotting the wide-open door, an idea struck him.

He stealthily slipped out of bed and sneaked away while the installers were distracted.

"Spring has arrived, the flowers are blooming, and I'm off to the swimming pool!"

Ye Cheng bellowed as he ran, stripping down to his underwear and frolicking on the garden's grass.

The approaching nurse quickly shielded her eyes. "Ye Cheng, put your clothes on and get back to your room. Now's not the time to be out and about!"

Ye Cheng, tumbling in the grass, paid no heed to the nurse. "You might manage the heavens and the earth, but do you think you can manage my swimming? Who swims fully clothed?"

"Someone help, bring him back here!"

The nurse urgently summoned several security guards. The burly men pinned Ye Cheng down and forcibly dressed him.

Ye Cheng wriggled free from the guards, clutching his half-down pants, and yelled, "I won't wear clothes; I want to swim!"

"Catch him, catch him quick!" The nurse directed, pointing at the errant Ye Cheng.

The comical chase was witnessed by the Supernatural Bureau's onlookers, who laughed until they doubled over.

As the night deepened, the mental hospital turned off its lights at the usual hour, allowing patients to rest properly.

The hospital quieted down. Ye Cheng, who had been sedated by the doctors earlier, awoke in the wee hours.

He sat up in bed, holding his breath and steadying his respiration, focusing his mind to absorb the celestial energies.

Ding dong! The clock struck midnight.

An imminent threat was detected. The host must evacuate immediately.

Ye Cheng's eyes opened slowly, his expression one of cool detachment.

"What's meant to happen will always find its way."

In the Supernatural Bureau's monitoring room, the operators sensed something amiss. Glancing up at the monitoring equipment, they noticed two red dots steadily moving closer.

Upon reviewing the footage, two female ghosts, one clad in red, the other in white, appeared on the screen. The female ghost in red had a ghostly pale complexion with bulging eyes, while her counterpart in white had a puffy visage.

They tilted their heads slightly, their gaze piercing into the camera's lens. In that instant, the camera shattered, plunging the feed into darkness.

"Wasn't that the female ghost who sought out Ye Cheng last night?"

"Yes, that's her. Do you think she's brought reinforcements to cause trouble for Ye Cheng?"

"We need to check it out immediately."
