Everyone felt an indescribable sensation, and at that moment, they even had the urge to stay far away from Zhao Yi!
This guy is damn dangerous!
When others make a move, there's usually some warning, some reasonable buildup and release of emotion.
Even if you're going to pee, you at least have to unzip first, right?
But Zhao Yi just silently pees his pants.
And only tells you after he's done.
Who can handle that?
God knows what someone might do next to displease him, and while happily chatting, their head might suddenly get blown off!
Behind him, the old lady, Qin Xiufang, looked at Zhao Yi with a complex gaze, recalling the message she received at the guild's headquarters earlier. A hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes but was quickly suppressed.
In front of everyone, Zhao Yi walked up to a head and picked up a Ghost Candle.
As soon as the Ghost Candle was pulled from the person's brain, it began to slowly drip blood-red wax tears!
The countdown had begun.
Seeing Zhao Yi about to open the door and leave, Bai Shuiji hesitated for a moment, then hurriedly stepped forward to grab a candle.
"I'll go with you!"
She took a deep breath.
Even though she knew the outside world would be dangerous, Bai Shuiji didn't want to hide in the carriage.
She firmly believed that being by Zhao Yi's side was the safest!
Wen Long, not wanting to be outdone, also picked up a candle.
"Let's explore the three of us, the remaining three candles... you guys can distribute them yourselves," he instructed.
The adorable young lady crew member opened the door for them, and a bone-chilling wind immediately blew in, making everyone in the carriage shiver!
The outside world was... exceptionally dark.
Without the Ghost Candle, they couldn't even see a meter ahead.
Now with the Ghost Candle, their vision barely extended to about ten meters.
Even so, the eerie environment made them shiver involuntarily.
"Brother Zhao, what do you think about this mission?"
Bai Shuiji followed behind Zhao Yi, completely unsure of what she should be doing.
Zhao Yi, while observing the surrounding environment, said:
"Didn't you find any clues in the carriage?"
Clues?
What clues?
Bai Shuiji carefully recalled.
She was just playing jump rope with a bunch of little ghosts, and in the end, she used her wits to win, and the little ghosts spared her organs, but it seemed... there were no special clues.

"Ahem..."
Wen Long coughed lightly beside her, glancing at Bai Shuiji, hinting that he actually knew some clues.
Bai Shuiji turned her head, curiously looking at Wen Long.
"Is your throat uncomfortable?"
Wen Long: "..."
Failing to show off, he seemed a bit frustrated, but still said:
"I do know a useful clue... it seems we need to go to some... control panel."
Zhao Yi corrected him:
"It's the control room."
"Inside is the full map of the train station... Our Chaotic Realm train station is an abandoned station from who knows how many years later, many places have long collapsed and changed."
"Moye Village isn't a small village, there are many people, so the train station isn't small either. Our Ghost Candle only lasts for an hour of burn time, so to avoid wasting time, we must first find the map."
The little ghost girl in the sixth carriage left him several key pieces of information.
Besides the map, there was also the Moye Village morning newspaper.
It might record something.
The road was shrouded in thick black fog, and occasionally, some inexplicable eerie shadows flickered in the distance, disappearing in an instant.
They were tense all over, carefully avoiding them, exploring the station platform for the exit.
It wasn't much different from when they entered.
"But once we find the map, what can we do?"
Bai Shuiji tried to learn something from Zhao Yi, constantly speculating on Zhao Yi's intentions.
The Clown Game and Butcher Game made her trust Zhao Yi completely.
"I think the way to complete the task should be outside the station."
It was Wen Long who spoke.
He cautiously observed the surroundings, as if afraid something would suddenly rush out from the darkness!
Zhao Yi added:
"The task requires us to resolve grievances. Since we need to resolve grievances, we first need to understand what grievances exist on the train and where they originated."
"Only by understanding what happened here back then and the conflict relationships can we possibly complete the task."
"I've asked several specters inside the carriage, and they all seem to be afraid of something, unwilling to mention the past."
"This indicates that somewhere on the train, there's an invisible, terrifying presence watching them and us!"
"So, we can't learn anything from inside the train; we can only come out to find clues... like recordings, notes, newspapers, or direct accounts from specters..."
Zhao Yi laid out his thought process simply, and the two immediately felt enlightened and clear.
Even at this moment, part of Zhao Yi's attention remained on the information the little ghost girl in the sixth carriage left him.
—It will keep watching you.
Who is this 'it'?
Is it a hidden specter on the train?
If so, where is it hiding?
If not, then what is watching them?
They ascended the stairs, returning to the station interior.
The station in the dungeon was complete.
It was even larger than they expected.
Some specters wandered within, seemingly not very aggressive. Upon seeing the Ghost Candles in Zhao Yi and the others' hands, they continued to roam indifferently.
They arrived at the control panel, a large office mostly enclosed by glass, with a burly security ghost standing outside the door, its eyes wide like copper bells, holding a meter-long baton, staring dead ahead!
Its body was conveniently obscured by the corner of the wall, so it wasn't until they approached from the side that they discovered it!
Wen Long and Bai Shuiji, being close, were almost scared out of their wits!
...
[Security Ghost: Extremely Dangerous!]
[Weakness: None!]
[Note: Don't be fooled by its open eyes; it's actually asleep. Unless it suffers a significant impact or injury, it won't be forced to wake up. Most specters nearby are very afraid of it! If it discovers you... run as fast as you can!!!]
...
Zhao Yi looked at the information about the security ghost and surprisingly showed a bright smile.
Seeing Zhao Yi smile, Bai Shuiji's heart skipped a beat.
This guy... what is he planning now?
"Careful!"
"This ghost is very fierce and might attack us!"
Seeing Zhao Yi walk towards the security ghost, Wen Long warned.
Although he saw Zhao Yi as a rival, they were all in the same boat now, and someone like Zhao Yi was definitely a valuable ally. He didn't want Zhao Yi to get into trouble.
Zhao Yi casually replied:
"No, it won't."
Bai Shuiji cautiously followed behind Zhao Yi, asking:
"How do you know?"
Zhao Yi raised his hand and plucked a nose hair from the security ghost:
"See, it's asleep."
Achoo!
Just as Zhao Yi finished speaking, the security ghost suddenly sneezed, scaring Bai Shuiji and Wen Long into retreating several meters, rolling and crawling, until they confirmed the security ghost hadn't moved, then they tiptoed back.
Seeing Zhao Yi's calm demeanor, Wen Long couldn't help but say:
"How the hell are you so brave?"
Zhao Yi seriously examined the terrifying fierce ghost before him:
"Don't talk nonsense, I've been timid since I was a child, that's why I'm so cautious."
Wen Long almost choked on his own saliva.
How are you cautious?!
Who just plucks someone's nose hair like that?!
Sighing, Wen Long approached the control room door.
He tried to open it.
Failed to open.
The door was locked.
He turned to Zhao Yi and said:
"Zhao Yi, the door is locked... what the hell!"
"What the hell are you doing?!"
Wen Long was dumbfounded as he watched Zhao Yi... frantically stripping the security ghost's clothes!
"Can't you see? I'm taking off its clothes!"
Zhao Yi said excitedly.
Wen Long panicked.
He quickly stepped back a few paces, ready to run at any moment.
Zhao Yi was going all out, truly unafraid of waking up this fierce and evil ghost!
Bai Shuiji was dumbfounded.
Initially, she tried to learn from Zhao Yi's thought process to become stronger.
But now she suddenly realized... she couldn't understand what Zhao Yi was thinking at all.
Zhao Yi stripped more and more enthusiastically, his eyes shining, tossing the Ghost Candle aside, stripping the security ghost's clothes and then its pants. In just a minute, the security ghost was left with only a pair of floral boxers.
Embroidered with a sparrow.
Seeing Zhao Yi had no intention of stopping, Bai Shuiji grabbed Zhao Yi's waist and pulled him back, panicking:
"Brother! Brother! That's enough! Let's spare it!"
"We still have important things to do!"
Even though it's a ghost, the sparrow must still be sensitive, and with Zhao Yi being so heavy-handed, she was really afraid the security ghost would wake up!
Zhao Yi wiped the sweat from his forehead, picked up the Ghost Candle beside him, and panted:
"Alright, let's spare it for today!"
Not far away, Wen Long cautiously approached, looking at the security uniform on the ground, and said with a wry smile:
"We only needed the key; you didn't have to strip it completely!"
Zhao Yi chuckled, his eyes shining, and kicked the security uniform to Wen Long's feet.
"Put it on."
Wen Long's expression froze.
"What... what?"
"Put it on."
Zhao Yi retrieved the key from the security uniform.
"Put it on!"
"From now on... you're the security ghost!"
