Three folders were placed in front of me. "Here it is. This is the copy of the folders that Lucas received before. The last one is in his hands. We haven't made a copy of it because of his request. But I bet these three folders with Lucas' information are enough, right?" Carl said with a business smile. I eyed him in suspicion. How could Carl give this information that Lucas held preciously so easily to others? Lucas had paid an exorbitant amount for each file that five hundred tokens would not be enough for these three files. So for me to acquire it so easily, made me doubt this whole exchange. Was it really fine? I only expected Carl to answer my question or tell me a simple short story about Lucas' life and death. That's all. But to get something as important as this. If Lucas come to learn about this, he would be surely enraged-- Pang. My heart ached again. I once again was reminded that Lucas was not in the right state to worry about this. Lucas... "What? You don't
"Ha! A person like her who destroy the lives of others doesn't deserve to have a child!" I was so invested in this that I forgot what I am looking for. I proceeded to the third folder. The third folder was game-changing. There was another character introduced here. The mysterious person who was scheming behind that bitch was now revealed. It was a huge revelation. The mastermind was none other than the younger brother of the husband. The uncle of the son! What the heck?! I did not expect that. How could you let your nephew be motherless and how could you poison a child related to you by blood? Isn't it so vicious? This damned uncle was never suspected nor his crimes were exposed. However, no matter how much meticulous and thoroughly this uncle was, he would not be able to hide his vicious identity in front of these ghosts. The investigators were invisible, so the ghost was the best spies out there. The mastermind's identity was revealed when Victoria got drunk one day i
... A woman like her who lived in luxury would not visit that shabby hospital- sorry Doctor Henry and Nurse Cath but the hospital was only average and might be shabby for rich people like her- for a check-up. She would definitely be in some top-ranking hospital and become a VIP there. So seeing Victoria there was kinda suspicious. Hold on. The fourth floor. I suddenly realized something crucial. The fourth floor has only two occupants. Me and the patient from the first room. I would be out of the picture, so there was a probability that Victoria's visit was related to the other room. Could it be the woman visited the patient in that room? Come to think of it, Lucas was also safeguarding that place. He would not let me enter that room and he lived there basically. The patient there must be someone Lucas and the woman were acquainted with. Could it be.... The son?! It was said the son was in a coma. Perhaps the woman visited that place to watch over the son- the intention
****Forgetting about the door's existence on the second day...this collides with the information that after the first day, the door won't appear again. The ghost who lived long won't even remember it.And this Yang energy...grandma said it made her feel as if she came back on her first day.Hold on.Yang energy pushes away ghosts like us...why is that?"Grandma, what is Yang energy? Why it pushes us away?""Oh, you lived in a generation where youngsters like you are more focused on media and technology. So you are not aware of things like that, huh."Not really, grandma. I just don't have any memory of what kind of lifestyle I lived before.Grandma did not notice my strange reaction and continued speaking."In my time, superstitions and supernatural things go hand in hand. So we believe in Yang and Yin energy. Yin energy is a cold and negative aura. The Yin energy is thicker when there are ghosts, demons, or other beings nearby. Ghost like us accumulates Yin energy in this world. Tha
Lucas...'Lucas had woken up'..?The Lucas I have in my mind...and the Lucas they were talking about...were they the same people?My mind was full of questions and doubts.Lucas was investigating these people, so he indeed had connections with them. They mentioned Lucas' name, so there was a huge possibility that it was the 'Lucas' I know.But the Lucas in their conversation was the 'son'.And that son was alive....Hold on.A realization came to me.They said the son was comatose right? Could it be....?An impossible thought occurred to me.Bam!My thoughts were interrupted by a loud sound. I looked at the two men who were still in a tight confrontation."Are you really suspecting me?" Mathew asked with a dark face. His palm was red from his slam."In the years that you did not even glance at your son, it was me who took care of him. I can't believe you are trying to put all the blame on me and pay back the good things I have done in this way." Mathew said angrily.I wanted to punch
....Lucas' identity shocked me.He was alive.Who could believe it?If I had not seen Lucas on the bed as proof, I would not come to believe it even if Lucas was to appear in front of me now and told me about this.But after much deliberation, my existence was also a living proof that a random ghost could actually be alive. It was just that their body fell into a coma and they have no choice but to live like a dead person. However, that kind of things rarely happens.Now looking back, every piece of information perfectly fits together.When Lucas first met me and learned that I was a person neither alive nor dead, he helped me out to adjust in the ghost society. He was not that surprised about my condition and even came up with the things of what should I do at that critical time.If it was another ghost, I could not say for sure that the same thing would happen. Either they would try to possess my body for a chance to live again or report me to a ghost market so they could squeeze o
**** The sun rises and the empty school started to get crowded. I waited in front of the school gate, carrying the four folders with me. After reading the information in the fourth folder, I got more courage. I was right. The fourth folder has the evidence that needed to expose that bastard's connection to the car accident and the poisoning incident. All I needed to do was to hand these over to Michael, the person that could bring down Mathew at the moment. However, I am a ghost right now. There was no way these nonexistent folders would appear in the world of the living. I can't hand them over to Michael personally nor I could appear and testify for the truth. The only thing I could do was ask a person who would connect me to Michael. A living person who could communicate with the dead. That person was Jia. That's why I am here at the school gate waiting diligently for Jia. Hopefully, she won't avoid me much and hear me out. When I saw a familiar short-haired girl with a
Tomorrow quickly came by.I gave one glance at Lucas before departing for the school.I did not bother to come early to not disturb Jia in her class and decided to wait for her at the school gate after class.I sincerely hoped that Jia won't run away like last time. Since the school was a private one, many private cars were already waiting for rich students to fetch them. Seeing the cars lined up while the drivers waited outside, I felt a sense of deja vu.A black sedan passed by. Unlike the other cars that could only park in front of the school gates, this car was given the privilege to come inside.A driver not far away from me gossiped to another driver."Which car is that? Why are they allowed in?""Are you new? That car belonged to the owner of this school, the President.""Oh, the President? But isn't the President overseas right now due to the collaboration with other foreign private schools? I have heard it from my boss.""Ah. There are many things you should know. Ask your
