I was a rookie reporter in the 00s

Fu Siyuan and Li Wei carefully entered the basement and found it was filled with various electronic devices and documents. They quickly began to check, trying to find clues to the "ghost".

"There are more communication records and planning documents here." Fu Siyuan said, "'Ghost' must have planned his actions here."

"We need to quickly take these documents back and analyze them," Li Wei said. "Maybe we can find out his identity."

Just as they were about to leave, the basement door suddenly closed, the surrounding lights went out, and it was pitch dark.

"Don't panic, we need to calm down and look for any chance of escape." Fu Siyuan said.

Just then, a sneer came from the corner of the basement.

"'Ghost'!" Fu Siyuan and Li Wei immediately became alert and quickly looked for a hiding place.

"You've fallen into my trap." The ghost's voice echoed in the darkness. "This is a trap I carefully set up. You can't escape."

The police quickly organized a special police team to search the abandoned warehouse area. Zhang Wanqing, Fu Siyuan and Li Wei also went there, knowing that this might be the key to uncovering the identity of the "ghost".

The warehouse area was desolate, with abandoned warehouses and piles of debris making it look particularly eerie. The SWAT team entered the area cautiously, weapons in hand, as if facing a major enemy.

"This place is too big. We need to spread out our search," Zhang Wanqing said. "Pay attention to every suspicious spot."

They split into several groups and began searching the warehouse area. Fu Siyuan and Li Wei were responsible for checking the interior of the warehouse, while Zhang Wanqing was responsible for guarding the perimeter.

During their search, Li Wei suddenly discovered a hidden entrance to the basement and immediately called Fu Siyuan's attention.

"There is a basement here, maybe the 'ghost' is in there." Li Wei said.

"We have to be careful, there might be a trap." Fu Siyuan reminded.

The two quickly hid themselves and prepared to enter the basement. At this moment, Zhang Wanqing spotted a suspicious vehicle outside the warehouse with its license plate deliberately obscured.

"There's a car here. The 'Ghost' might have just left," Zhang Wanqing said over the intercom. "Be careful. There might be an ambush."

Fu Siyuan and Li Wei cautiously entered the basement and found it filled with various electronic devices and documents. They quickly began to check, trying to find any clues to the "ghost." Suddenly, the basement door closed tightly and could not be opened at all.

"Oh no, we are trapped!" Li Wei exclaimed.

Fu Siyuan and Li Wei were trapped in the basement, while Zhang Wanqing spotted the Ghost's vehicle outside and realized they might have fallen into a trap, putting Fu Siyuan and Li Wei in danger. She immediately alerted the SWAT team via intercom and requested backup. The SWAT team sprang into action, but Ghost seemed to have anticipated this and had sealed the basement exit.

"We have to find an exit quickly, otherwise they will be in danger." Zhang Wanqing said anxiously.

A SWAT team quickly surrounded the warehouse area, and technical experts began analyzing the basement's structure. Using drones and thermal imaging equipment, they attempted to locate the basement's entrance and possible weaknesses. However, the Ghost seemed well-prepared, with the basement's defenses exceptionally robust.

"The basement door is electronically locked, so we can't enter directly," the technical expert said. "But thermal imaging shows signs of life inside the basement. Fu Siyuan and Li Wei are inside."

"We must find a way in as soon as possible," Zhang Wanqing said anxiously. "The Ghost may attack at any time."

Technical experts quickly retrieved the architectural drawings of the warehouse area and found that there was a ventilation system in the basement, which, although small, was large enough for one person to pass through.

"We can get in through the ventilation system," the technician said. "That might be the only way."

The SWAT team quickly used professional demolition tools to open the entrance to the ventilation system. Several SWAT team members put on light equipment and prepared to enter the basement through the ventilation system.

"We have to be careful. The 'Ghost' might have set a trap inside," Zhang Wanqing warned. "You have to stay alert."

The SWAT team quietly approached the core area of ​​the basement through the ventilation system. They used night vision goggles and communication equipment to maintain contact with the team outside.

"We're approaching the target area," a SWAT team member said. "There's a lot of equipment in the basement. It looks like a command center."

"Be careful, the 'ghost' might be inside." Zhang Wanqing said, "You must find Fu Siyuan and Li Wei as soon as possible."

Fu Siyuan and Li Wei were trapped in the basement, surrounded by darkness. "Hahahaha...hahahaha...hahahaha..." The ghost's voice echoed in the darkness, making them feel extremely uneasy.

"Don't be too proud, we won't let you succeed." Fu Siyuan said, "You can't hide in the dark forever."

"You have already lost." The Ghost said, "My plan has been launched, and you can't stop me."

At this moment, the lights in the basement suddenly came on, and Fu Siyuan and Li Wei found that the "ghost" was standing in front of them with a mocking smile on his face.

"Do you think we're not prepared?" Fu Siyuan suddenly said, "We already knew you might set a trap here."

"What?" The "Ghost" was stunned.

"We outside have already notified the SWAT team, and they are on their way." Li Wei said, "You can't escape."

"Do you think the special police can get in?" "Ghost" said with a sneer.

As the Ghost was speaking, the SWAT team had already entered the basement through the ventilation system. They quietly approached the Ghost from behind, ready to launch a surprise attack.

"Action!" Zhang Wanqing gave the order through the walkie-talkie.

The SWAT team quickly rushed towards the "ghost" and subdued it. Fu Siyuan and Li Wei also reacted quickly and assisted the SWAT team in controlling the "ghost".

"You won." The "ghost" looked at himself who was being controlled, and a helpless smile appeared on his face. "But do you really think you won?"

"What do you mean?" Zhang Wanqing looked at him warily.

The "ghost" suddenly pressed a hidden button, the equipment in the basement suddenly started up, and a line of words appeared on the screen: "The real game has just begun."

"He has a backup plan!" Fu Siyuan shouted, but it was too late. The equipment in the basement began to emit a strong light, and a powerful energy wave came from underground.

"Retreat!" Zhang Wanqing shouted, and the special police team quickly escorted "Ghost" out of the basement and evacuated to a safe area.

Just as they left, there was a loud noise from the basement and the entire building began to collapse.
