Weird Safe House: I became stronger after taking in my roommate!

Chapter 24 The Pure and Foolish Female College Student

Murphy sat in the dirty mud puddle, twisting and struggling, but he couldn't break free.

Her mouth was sealed shut, and she couldn't speak. She had no way to persuade Shen Xu that the invasion of the ghost realm was extremely dangerous, and he was simply playing with fire!

"Ugh————"

The next moment, Murphy's beautiful eyes widened.

Right behind Brother Biao and the others, a ghostly figure appeared out of thin air.

A black Zhongshan suit, an upright posture, hair as withered as wild grass, skin covered with lividity —

This is definitely not human.

Shen Xu twirled his pen, frowning, and said, "Black Dragon Company only sent a few useless people like you? No safety officer?"

"Useless? Where is that?"

Brother Biao's legs were trembling, but he still said in a pretentious manner, "Brother Biao and the brothers around me are all brave and skilled warriors who have fought countless fierce battles."

Shen Xu was somewhat speechless, so he went straight to the point: "Didn't you call me? Now that I'm here, what about the '..."

People should just say what they want to say.

""

He figured it out: this chubby-faced, slightly stuttering Biao Ge was just a simpleton.

They even accept defective products like this?

It seems that Black Dragon Company is quite Iowa.

"The person behind me? You'll be shocked if I tell you!"

Brother Biao stammered and his legs trembled, but he still tried to remain calm.

He took out cigarettes and a lighter from his pocket, and didn't forget to toss one to Shen Xu first.

He then lit one, took a deep drag, and exhaled the smoke.

Shen Xu stopped twirling his pen, looked down at the cigarette in his hand, and saw that it was still a Huazi cigarette.

"Brother Biao—Brother Biao—"

From behind, several underlings called out tremblingly.

"What's wrong?"

Brother Biao suddenly turned around and was met with the rotting face of the ghost principal.

His legs went weak on the spot, and he knelt down on the ground.

He then collapsed onto his back, limp and powerless.

She rolled her eyes.

He fell into a coma.

"Grandpa Ghost! Don't kill us!"

"Brother Ghost, please let us go!"

"We'll burn incense for you during the Qingming Festival—"

The thugs were terrified when they saw the ghostly principal. They leaned against the walls on both sides and collapsed to the ground, crying and shouting.

Shen Xu frowned, too lazy to pay attention to the group anymore, and strolled through the ghost realm until he arrived in front of Murphy.

He bent down, pinched his nose in disgust, and reached out to tear off the duct tape covering the investigator's mouth.

"Cough cough————"

Murphy, panting heavily, immediately said, "Shen Xu, did you summon this ghost realm? Stop it right now!"

"This is a residential area. If it gets out of control, it could kill many people—"

Shen Xu frowned and said, "So what? This was all to save you, wasn't it?"

Murphy was taken aback. Even though the boy in front of her was looking at her with disgust and contempt, she was still touched.

"Thank you for saving me, but it was really dangerous. You should put away the Ghost Domain first."

Using the Ghost Domain is a powerful and dangerous ability.

It is said that even the high-ranking security personnel at headquarters are rarely able to control the Ghost Realm.

The so-called control of the ghost realm is completely different from Wang Lei's method of attracting the ghost realm.

To put it bluntly, Wang Lei was simply using strange and unusual tools to kill people, creating a ghost realm by accumulating human lives, which was completely uncontrollable.

But Shen Xu was clearly different; the moment he activated his Ghost Domain, the entire street was immediately enveloped.

Otherwise, Brother Biao and his group wouldn't have encountered the "ghost wall" and inexplicably returned to their original location.

"Asking ghosts for help comes at a price."

Shen Xu glanced down at Murphy and asked, "Can we kill those thugs?"

"Of course not—please calm down."

Murphy was so frightened she almost cried. "Shen Xu," she said, "you're still a student! You can't go down the path of crime! Let's hand them over to law enforcement!"

"hehe."

Shen Xu was just testing her; this girl was indeed an honest person.

He immediately crouched down, enduring the nauseating stench of the trash can, and untied the ropes binding Murphy.

Then Murphy reached out a hand and took his hand, and he managed to get up.

Her legs had gone numb long ago while she was tied up.

"I have a task for you."

Shen Xu said, "Find out who these people really are. I'll give you three days."

"If the matter isn't resolved by then—I will personally take action and kill them all."

He glanced back at the few guys who were already terrified and nervous, but he couldn't be bothered to question them.

"Okay, I'll definitely finish it!"

Murphy answered reflexively; she was tall, but slightly shorter than Shen Xu.

At this moment, she stared at him with a pair of bright, clear eyes, which held a hint of—foolishness.

Shen Xu put away the pen, and as the ghost principal left, the ghostly domain naturally disappeared as well.

The warm light from the streetlights shone on Murphy, making her legs, which were tightly wrapped in jeans, appear even longer.

Her white T-shirt was stretched taut by her ample breasts, rising and falling with her rapid breathing after the shock.

"Call me when the time comes."

Shen Xu left a message and strolled away from the alley, where police sirens could already be heard in the distance.

Two o'clock in the morning.

Murphy returned to his small rented apartment.

Less than a minute after Shen Xu left, law enforcement officers arrived at the scene.

Zhang Zheng was the one leading the team.

Murphy cooperated by giving a statement and asked Zhang Zheng to help investigate the true identities of Brother Biao and the others.

She was so busy that she only got home now.

"Today was awful—"

Murphy quickly took off his dirty jeans and white T-shirt, and lay down on the bed.

So much happened today that she is exhausted, both physically and mentally, and even breathing feels difficult.

After a while, she got up and went to the bathroom to wash up, then smiled at herself in the mirror.

Murphy wasn't from Longcheng City; she was transferred from the capital. After graduating, she joined the Supernatural Security Department, which is the headquarters of the National Bureau of Supernatural Investigation.

She was transferred here because the Bureau of Investigation into the Mysteries of Longcheng was short-staffed.

For a female college graduate who has been out of school for less than two years, leaving her hometown and engaging in such a dangerous job is quite remarkable.

"I'm so hungry————"

Murphy changed into her pajamas, boiled water, and made herself a bowl of noodles.

As an investigator, her salary was quite high; she ate instant noodles simply for convenience.

While he was making instant noodles, Murphy wiped the glass photo frame on the table several times with his hand. Inside was a gray-white photograph.

"I almost forgot, you guys need to replenish your energy too!"

She quickly went to the balcony and watered the potted plants that were somewhat withered.

"Shen Xu — This young man always acts cool, but he's actually quite kind-hearted."

"He said he didn't care today, but he still rushed to the scene immediately, subdued the bad guys, and saved me."

"I believe he will definitely be an excellent safety officer, and I look forward to working with him."

Murphy said this while eating noodles and looking at the gray-white photograph.

The master bedroom and bathroom of the villa.

Shen Xu was comfortably soaking in the bathtub, while Lin Huan, dressed as a maid, sat on the edge, patiently massaging his shoulders, ignoring the fact that her clothes were soaking wet.

"Does it feel good, Daddy?"

"good."

I'll work even harder!

Lin Huan, immersed in her maid role, pressed the buttons for a while, then asked curiously, "Dad, you're back so fast! By the way, is that investigator Murphy alright?"

"Um.

""

Shen Xu replied, then a murderous glint flashed in his eyes, and said, "Saving her was just a side effect; the main reason is that someone wants to deal with me."

"The safety officer trial was already enough to make me anxious, and these people just had to provoke me—since they don't want to live, I can only respect their wishes."
