"Okay, now that we've chosen our target, let's go."

When Luo Shiyu stood up to leave, he casually threw a bag of ghost coins on the table. His action was so natural that Coco didn't notice it at all.

He followed Luo Shiyu out, still asking, "Partner, tell me where we are going!"

"You'll know when it arrives."

"Why are you being so secretive?"

The two men passed by a room one after the other and were about to leave when Luo Shiyu turned around and kicked open the door.

The environment inside was extremely shabby. A disheveled ghost with obvious strangle marks on his neck was hiding inside. He trembled and said, "You, what are you doing? Breaking into someone else's room without permission will be punished according to the rules."

"I know." Luo Shiyu said indifferently, walked into the house, reached out to take a novel from the bookshelf and started reading, as if he was at home.

Keke pinched her nose in disgust. In order not to dirty her skirt, she would rather block the door than go in.

After reading several novels, Luo Shiyu discovered that the authors of these books were all the same person, but their writing styles were very different.

Considering the ghost's attire and the surroundings of the house, Luo Shiyu guessed, "Are you a novelist?"

The ghost answered truthfully, "I am."

"No, I shouldn't ask that. I should ask, are you a thief?"

"what?"

Seeing the ghost visibly panicking, Luo Shiyu closed the book in his hand and recounted his speculations of the past few days: "This novel later in the novel is not your work, right? You stole someone else's work, and then the original author strangled you to death. Unwilling to accept this, you turned into a ghost to find him and turned him into a monster. What you never expected was that he became stronger than you and even trapped you in his ghost domain."

When Coco heard this, she suddenly screamed, "Ah! Could that monster at night be the captain?"

"He's the master of this ghostland, not the captain in the legal sense. By the way, we're not sailing in the air, but in the palm of that monster's hand."

Luo Shiyu looked at the ghost who was obviously very scared but dared not run away, and explained to Keke: "The reason he did this was to find this guy for revenge. However, he was trapped by the rules, so he dragged innocent people in to help him find the culprit, the so-called captain."

Keke still couldn't understand: "But those rules are against us everywhere! And what you said about us being in the monster's palm is too ridiculous!"

"Haven't you noticed? The stars at night are actually the light reflected by the monster's countless eyeballs. As for the rules, they're a way for this guy to protect himself. He created that monster, so wouldn't it be easy to impose a few restrictions? For example, they can't show up during the day and must eat ghosts that wander around at night."

Coco suddenly understood: "You mean, it's actually this monster that has the rules. And this guy is afraid that others will find him, so he applied the rules of the monster to write the rules of the cruise ship."

"That's about right. Just look at Rule 12 and you'll see. He modified the original rules and added Rules 13 and 14 to confuse people. After all, no fool would publicly announce their existence and let others play a game of cat and mouse with them."

Luo Shiyu suddenly thought of something and added, "Except for crazy people."

The ghost never expected that his elaborate plan would be exposed so easily. He grabbed his hair and pointed at Luo Shiyu frantically, making his last struggle: "You clearly broke into my room without permission, why didn't you trigger the rules! He should have eaten you! That monster should have eaten you!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? I paid you."

The ghost's eyes widened: "How could it be!"

Coco was confused again and interrupted, "Wait! When did this happen?"

Luo Shiyu clapped his hands at the list and explained, "The three rooms on the list that I hadn't entered were all covered by my hands. Before I left, I dropped another bag of ghost coins on the table. Rule six states that I'm both a customer and an employee, so I'm hiring myself. Is that okay?"

"Then why did you say something like there's no solution at all? You scared me to death, didn't you know that?"

"There's nothing I can do. If I don't pretend, I'm afraid he'll run into the room we searched. Who knew this guy was such a coward that he didn't even have the courage to step out of this room."

"He's really a coward. He didn't resist even after being exposed by us."

"This ghost realm doesn't belong to him, so it must not be of a very high level."

"Is he afraid that he can't defeat us with our limited abilities?"

"No, he's afraid of a group attack. He's not the only one trapped here. You, don't block the door. Even in the daytime, he wouldn't dare run out with the door open."

"Don't be too confident. If you capsize in the ditch, you'll be in trouble."

"Look at how filthy this room is. Doesn't that tell the whole story? He's so scared of that monster that he doesn't even dare to leave this room."

Coco covered her mouth and laughed, "Coward."

"Don't mock him. You two are the same. You were so scared that you couldn't sleep at night." Luo Shiyu said, casually handed over a novel and asked, "Here, do you want to read the novel?"

"Don't look at it, it's so dirty."

"Okay, I'll see for myself."

"You seem so relaxed. What's next? Just wait until nightfall and throw him out?"

"Well, if you want to hold a sacrificial ceremony for him, that's fine."

"Go away, go read your novel. You're just talking nonsense."

"Ah."

The book ended just when it was getting exciting. Luo Shiyu went over and kicked the ghost cowering in the corner. Like a street thug, he asked, "Hey! Let me ask you, who is the murderer?"

"I do not know either."

"Tsk! That's right, it's not you who wrote it."

Luo Shiyu had no choice but to open the other novel and read it, still feeling a little regretful: "What a good book, it's a pity there is no sequel."

The sky gradually darkened and the cruise trip soon came to an end.

----

Eastern Headquarters, Command Room.

"Boss, you should take a break. Ever since Admiral Luo entered the ghost realm, you've been staring at these small screens. You haven't slept in days. If you keep going like this, your body will collapse."

Nanxing looked at the man who was sitting there, almost not eating or drinking, and seemed to be staring through thousands of small screens.

"Even if you keep staring at him like this, you won't be able to get General Luo back!"

He Gui suddenly stood up. Nan Xing thought he was going back to rest, but then he saw him leaning forward, staring at one place, as if confirming something.

Before Nanxing had time to ask him what he was looking at, he heard Hegui calling his name.

"South Star."

"I'm here."

"Help me prepare the plane, Xiaoyu is back." He Gui said as he was about to walk out.

Nan Xing saw He Gui's current state and kindly reminded him, "Do you want to clean yourself up before going to pick up General Luo?"

He Gui was stunned for a moment and said, "Give me five minutes, go and prepare the plane first."

"Ok."

He Gui returned to his room and looked in the mirror. At first glance, he almost thought he was a beggar.

His eyes were bloodshot, and the thick dark circles made his eye bags look heavy. His cheeks were sunken and he looked a little unrecognizable. His face was pale and bloodless. Not only was he unshaven, but his lips were also dry and flaky.

The clothes are also looser than before, and I look much thinner overall.

He Gui pinched his chest, and the feeling was much worse. He felt like everything was over in an instant.

"What should I do? If I appear in front of Xiaoyu like this, she will definitely dislike me."

〖What will happen if someone else takes my place after I get kicked out by then?〗

He Gui didn't dare to think about what he would do without Luo Shiyu.
