Yang Jian and Tong Qian tested the notebook’s warning and confirmed that a ghost appeared behind anyone who turned to look. They fled Room 100, unaware that the notebook later revealed the ghost had been behind Yang Jian all along.

• Yang Jian considered turning around after the notebook warned that a ghost was behind him, but Tong Qian offered to test the warning with one of her ghost faces.

• Li Yang released his hold on the door, which burst open to reveal an empty corridor and four handprints on the broken panels.
• Yang Jian, Li Yang, and Tong Qian rushed out, while the notebook reopened and stated that the ghost had always been behind Yang Jian.

Yang Jian and his companions crossed the furnace’s Ghost Domain, discovered that its flames weakened supernatural influence, and dragged the furnace toward the exit. Near the exit, they encountered the revived Zhu Jian as a dangerous shadow closed in behind him.

• Yang Jian, Li Yang, and Tong Qian charged past the furnace ghost, and Yang Jian split it apart with his firewood knife.
• After crossing the furnace’s firelight, Yang Jian and Li Yang felt their bodies and supernatural conditions improve, so Yang Jian decided to take the furnace with them.

• Zhu Jian chased after them as a shadow spread through the corridor behind him.

Yang Jian’s group fled from the seemingly immortal Zhu Jian and avoided entering Room 10, which appeared to be a trap. They took refuge in Room 5, while Tong Qian revealed that a ghost had begun appearing behind her whenever she turned around.

• Li Yang shot Zhu Jian, but Tong Qian’s supernatural crying only stopped him temporarily before he continued pursuing them.

• Tong Qian told Yang Jian about the ghost appearing behind her, while Li Yang heard Zhu Jian run past their door and away.

Yang Jian took the furnace from the corridor and found that Room 10 had vanished, then led Li Yang and Tong Qian toward the Caesar Hotel exit. There, he encountered Zhu Jian again and suspected that the man with them was a ghost impersonator, leaving both groups on the verge of a fight.

• Yang Jian dismembered the ghost gripping the furnace, moved it aside, and discovered that a wall had replaced Room 10.
• Yang Jian decided to leave the corridor and search the Caesar Hotel for the golden door that could reveal the route back to reality.

• Li Yang urged Yang Jian to attack Zhu Jian, while Tong Qian advised caution; Yang Jian raised his cracked spear as Wang Genquan prepared to fight.

Yang Jian exposed and killed a supernatural puppet posing as Zhu Jian, then led his group away as an unknown ghost approached. With the golden exit seemingly hidden on the dangerous third floor, Yang Jian accepted Li Yang’s plan to use the furnace to set the piled-up corpses on fire.

• Yang Jian suspected Zhu Jian was a ghost and cut him in half with the butcher’s knife when he refused to fight back.
• Zhu Jian kept speaking despite his injuries, so Yang Jian pinned him with the coffin nail, causing him to decay and fall silent.
• Dong Yulan concluded a ghost had replaced Zhu Jian, while Yang Jian said Zhu Jian had been a puppet and the real ghost was still nearby.
• As the room darkened and the rotten smell grew stronger, Yang Jian led Li Yang and Tong Qian out to search for the golden door.
• Li Yang proposed burning the corpses on the third floor with the furnace, and Yang Jian agreed to the plan.

Yang Jian took the elevator toward the third floor while the furnace ghost began to revive, as Wang Genquan and Dong Yulan fled the dark room and joined Xiang Lan. Xiang Lan revealed that a hidden survivor controlled the hotel’s supernatural events and led them to reclaim powers they had once prepared as a contingency.

• Yang Jian and his companions boarded the elevator for the third floor, while the furnace ghost’s fire gradually reignited.
• Wang Genquan and Dong Yulan fled the darkness, heard Zhu Jian’s voice behind them, and chose not to follow Yang Jian.
• Dong Yulan and Wang Genquan met Xiang Lan, who said Yang Jian had restored her and explained that an unseen person was manipulating events to erase him.
• Xiang Lan revealed that the group had once hidden a contingency in a room and planned to reclaim their supernatural powers and find A Nan and Zhu Jian.
• Yang Jian watched the furnace ghost revive in the elevator and prepared to adjust its timing before they reached the third floor.

Yang Jian, Tong Qian, and Li Yang reached the third floor of Caesar Hotel with the furnace, but the elevator began leaving before they could finish their plan. They stayed near the elevator entrance amid the corpse-lined corridor, with no immediate way to call the elevator back.

• Yang Jian struck the ghost beside the furnace with his hatchet, suppressing the rekindling fire before it could burn them alive.
• The elevator reached the third floor, where Yang Jian found no sign of the ghost that had intercepted them before.
• Yang Jian carried the furnace into a corpse-filled corridor and set it down within reach of the elevator.
• The elevator doors began closing, and Li Yang held them open with his supernatural power until Yang Jian told him to let go.
• The elevator left for another floor, and Li Yang pressed the call button, but it did not return.

Yang Jian and his companions waited for the furnace to reignite while Xiang Lan gathered the revived residents of Caesar Hotel and led them to recover their sealed memories and ghosts. With the vicious ghost apparently being drawn out and Yang Jian’s plan nearing success, the group prepared to escape the hotel.

• Yang Jian restrained a corpse that grabbed him and kept watch as the furnace slowly reignited, while Tong Qian sensed danger approaching.
• Xiang Lan found A Nan and Zhu Jian, who had revived without their memories, and led them with Dong Yulan and Wang Genquan toward Room Ten.
• Xiang Lan showed the group their portraits, which held their memories and supernatural powers, and the others recovered them despite the painful ghostly invasions.
• Xiang Lan explained that Yang Jian was acting and that the hotel was losing control, prompting the restored group to leave Room Ten and pursue their chance to escape.

Yang Jian and his companions waited for the furnace to ignite the corpses, but the third-floor ghost arrived and disrupted its power. Yang Jian pinned the ghost with the Coffin Nail, only for the surrounding corpse walls to collapse and bury all three of them.

• Yang Jian, Tong Qian, and Li Yang waited as the furnace reignited and began setting the nearby corpses ablaze.
• Tong Qian sensed the third-floor ghost nearby, and Yang Jian heard it moving around the corpse wall before it appeared at an intersection.
• The ghost's presence weakened the furnace's influence, preventing the nearby corpses from continuing to burn.
• Yang Jian threw the Coffin Nail and pinned the ghost to the corpse wall, after which the furnace's fire began spreading again.
• The corpse walls collapsed and surged over Yang Jian, Li Yang, and Tong Qian, burying them beneath the corpses.

Yang Jian was trapped beneath a mass of corpses and fought his way free, only to face the third-floor evil ghost, which could revive and possess different bodies. He realized that the ghost could only be weakened by burning all the corpses, but the brazier was failing to ignite them.

• The corpses buried Yang Jian, Li Yang, and Tong Qian, while Yang Jian used the Ghost Shadow and Ghost Lake to make space and sink the bodies.
• A corpse revived and attacked Yang Jian, resisting his ghost hand, Ghost Domain, and Ghost Lake before snapping his neck.
• Yang Jian lit a red ghost candle, briefly drove the ghost away, and escaped from the corpse heap, but could not find Li Yang, Tong Qian, or his Supernatural Weapon.
• Another corpse revived nearby, confirming to Yang Jian that the evil ghost could switch bodies, so he concluded that he had to burn all the corpses with the brazier.

Yang Jian dug through the corpses on the Caesar Hotel’s third floor to uncover the furnace, hoping its fire could counter the supernatural threat. He discovered that the corpse covering the furnace was another manifestation of the vicious ghost, while Xiang Lan and the others headed to the third floor in search of an exit.

• Corpses dragged Yang Jian toward a pit, but he used his Ghost Eye and Ghost Domain to escape their grasp and reach the furnace.
• Yang Jian removed corpses from the furnace while suspecting the old corpse watching him might no longer contain the ghost.
• Tong Qian and Li Yang remained trapped beneath the corpses, while their companions took the elevator to the fourth floor.
• Xiang Lan, A Nan, Dong Yulan, Wang Genquan, and Zhu Jian concluded that the exit was likely on the dangerous third floor and rode the elevator there.
• Yang Jian uncovered the furnace and lifted the red-hot corpse covering it, discovering that his ghost hand could not suppress it.
• The corpse raised its head toward Yang Jian, leading him to realize that the vicious ghost might inhabit multiple corpses rather than exist as a single individual.

Yang Jian’s attempt to burn the third-floor corpses worked, but a ghost left him immobilized as the blaze spread out of control. Xiang Lan’s group arrived, found Yang Jian and Tong Qian, and considered whether to exploit their weakened state.

• Yang Jian carried the brazier, used Ghost Lake to endure its heat, and thrust his ghost hand into the flames to ignite a bone; a third-floor ghost broke his neck and left him unable to move.
• The burning bone fell among the corpses, starting a fire that rapidly spread while the ghost pressed down on the brazier and extinguished its flames.
• Xiang Lan, A Nan, Zhu Jian, Dong Yulan, and another companion arrived by elevator, spotted the blaze and Yang Jian, and realized he had started the fire to burn away the corpses.
• The group found the elevator had left and heard cries echoing from around them as the flames continued spreading.
• Tong Qian crawled out from a pile of corpses, and Zhu Jian asked whether they should kill her and Yang Jian’s other companions while they were vulnerable.

Xiang Lan’s group chose to attack Yang Jian’s weakened team, and Zhu Jian’s supernatural assault incapacitated Tong Qian. As the flames threatened to consume Yang Jian, Ghost Lake restored movement to one of his arms, leaving him poised to respond.

• Wang Genquan urged the group to help Yang Jian’s team, while Zhu Jian and A Nan called for an attack and Dong Yulan advised staying out of it.
• Xiang Lan ordered the others to stop Tong Qian as she rushed to pull Yang Jian away from the spreading fire.
• Yang Jian told Tong Qian that a ghost had temporarily paralyzed him and that Ghost Lake was slowly restoring his body.
• A phantom figure attacked Tong Qian from behind, and she fell unconscious after turning around; Yang Jian recognized the assault as man-made and confronted the attackers.
• As the flames began consuming Yang Jian, his ghost hand regained movement when Ghost Lake restored one of his arms.

Yang Jian survived the fire and began taking revenge on the people who had attacked him, revealing that his burning ghost hand could drag victims into the corpses and ignite them. After killing Dong Yulan and overpowering Zhu Jian, he faced Xiang Lan, Wang Genquan, and A Nan, who realized he was not human and prepared to attack together.

• Xiang Lan and the others watched Yang Jian burn, but he vanished into the corpses, and Tong Qian disappeared there soon after.
• A charred hand dragged Dong Yulan beneath the corpses, and Yang Jian emerged holding her before crushing her neck and setting her body alight.
• Yang Jian explained that he had targeted Dong Yulan because she was easiest to kill, then turned his attention to Zhu Jian.
• Zhu Jian attacked Yang Jian but was struck from within by burning charred hands, while Yang Jian endured Zhu Jian's ghostly assault without falling.
• Xiang Lan recognized that Yang Jian was no longer human, and she urged Wang Genquan and A Nan to attack him together.

Yang Jian fought Xiang Lan, A Nan, and Wang Genquan despite being unable to move, using his charred ghost hand and supernatural powers to overwhelm their attacks. He began burning A Nan and invading Xiang Lan and Wang Genquan’s bodies, leaving their fate uncertain.

• Xiang Lan, A Nan, and Wang Genquan approached Yang Jian, while Zhu Jian writhed as the furnace fire burned his mutilated body.
• Yang Jian warned them that their curse kept them trapped in Caesar Hotel, but Wang Genquan chose to proceed with their attack.
• Xiang Lan unleashed cursed music, and A Nan used his ghost power to drag Yang Jian toward the darkness, but Yang Jian pulled him back and snapped his neck.
• Wang Genquan used a mirror to crack Yang Jian’s body, but the curse rebounded onto Wang Genquan when he could not shatter the mirror.
• Yang Jian countered Xiang Lan’s fatal melody with another cursed melody, then threw the burning A Nan aside.
• Yang Jian raised his charred ghost hand, causing supernatural forces to invade Xiang Lan and Wang Genquan’s bodies.

Yang Jian stopped Xiang Lan and Wang Genquan from escaping, but the reappearing male corpse killed Wang Genquan and stepped onto the third floor. Yang Jian realized the corpse might be drawn to the spreading furnace fire, while Li Yang remained missing.

• Yang Jian refused to let Xiang Lan and Wang Genquan retreat, and Xiang Lan used her many extending arms to hold him back while Wang Genquan headed for the elevator.
• The elevator arrived, but the tall male corpse stood inside and killed Wang Genquan as he approached.
• Yang Jian recognized the corpse from Caesar Hotel and retreated, leaving Xiang Lan to succumb to the furnace fire.
• The corpse stepped toward the fire while Yang Jian found the unconscious Tong Qian and moved her to safety, still unable to find Li Yang.
• Yang Jian noticed that Wang Genquan's corpse was no longer burning and concluded that the male corpse had come for the out-of-control furnace fire.

Yang Jian spread the furnace fire across the third floor while searching for the hidden golden door and waiting for Li Yang. Li Yang emerged from beneath the corpses, and the tall male corpse extinguished the flames around the door, revealing it as the corpse stood watching Yang Jian.

• Yang Jian set more corpses alight, causing fires to spread across the third floor while the tall male corpse walked into the flames and suppressed the fire around itself.
• Yang Jian waited near the elevator with unconscious Tong Qian, searching for the hidden door as the heat made the third floor increasingly dangerous.
• Li Yang pushed his way out from beneath the corpses while a fourth ghost had him by the neck, and Yang Jian lifted the corpse away from him.
• Li Yang told Yang Jian that he had touched the hidden door and could sense its location in the direction of the flames.
• The tall male corpse walked back through the inferno and extinguished the flames around a golden door, then stood beside it watching Yang Jian.

Yang Jian and his team escaped the burning third floor through the golden door, but the third-floor ghost tried to follow them out. As Yang Jian prepared to return and hold it back, the rotten male corpse used its corpse-wrapping cloth to drag the ghost away, suggesting that it still possessed consciousness and was helping him.

• Yang Jian abandoned the safer Ghost Lake route and led the unconscious Tong Qian and injured Li Yang past the rotten male corpse to the golden door.
• Li Yang forced the golden door open, and Yang Jian, Tong Qian, and Li Yang crossed into the real Caesar Hotel.
• A burning ghost from the third floor rushed toward the door, and Yang Jian and Li Yang struggled unsuccessfully to keep it from opening.
• With no ghost candles available, Yang Jian decided to return inside and hold the ghost back while Li Yang guarded the door.
• The rotten male corpse used its corpse-wrapping cloth to drag the third-floor ghost away from the doorway, convincing Yang Jian that it might still have consciousness.

Yang Jian sealed the paranormal passage at Caesar Hotel and took the injured Tong Qian to a hospital, where he removed blood and damaged brain tissue and repaired her injuries. Tong Qian remained unconscious, so Yang Jian used a dream to investigate whether she was still alive.

• Yang Jian shut the Golden Door with Li Yang’s help and planned to hide it, while acknowledging that the five people trapped inside could eventually find it.
• Yang Jian brought the unconscious Tong Qian and the injured Li Yang to a hospital and arranged for Tong Qian to be examined.
• After reviewing Tong Qian’s scans, Yang Jian removed the clotted blood and paranormal residue from her brain, then repaired the damage with the Liar Ghost’s power.
• Tong Qian’s condition improved, but she did not wake, so Yang Jian used paranormal power to pull himself into a dream and investigate her state.

Yang Jian tested whether Tong Qian’s consciousness remained in the dream, then returned to the Caesar Hotel with Li Yang to inspect the aftermath of the fire. They found the furnace and several surviving ghosts, and Yang Jian discovered that his cracked spear had pinned down part of the third-floor ghost.

• Yang Jian entered the dream with the vicious dog but found no sign of Tong Qian, so he left her in the hospital for observation.
• Yang Jian’s charred Ghost Hand remained in a fragile balance with the Ghost Lake’s supernatural power, and he prepared to return to the Caesar Hotel.
• Yang Jian and Li Yang entered the burned passage and found the furnace still burning beneath the ashes, with the red-skinned ghost nearby.
• Li Yang found a charred corpse that Yang Jian identified as a ghost still held in check by the furnace fire.
• Yang Jian recovered his cracked spear and discovered it had pinned down part of the third-floor ghost, so he left the coffin nail in place to prevent its revival.

Yang Jian and Li Yang prepared to leave the third floor of Caesar Hotel, hiding its golden door and leaving the dangerous ghosts behind. Wang Genquan joined them to test whether he could escape, but he died as soon as they reached the hotel’s outside area, confirming that the curse prevented him from surviving beyond it.

• Yang Jian and Li Yang searched the third floor, found the burning bone, and discovered that several corpses, including the tall rotten man, were missing.
• Yang Jian concealed the golden door, left the furnace and ghosts on the third floor, and had Li Yang pack the burning bone in a gold bag.
• As Yang Jian and Li Yang prepared to leave, Wang Genquan arrived and asked for a chance to see the outside world; Yang Jian agreed to take him.
• Yang Jian threw the coffin-nailed corpse back onto the third floor before closing the door, allowing the ghost to revive as the group departed.
• Outside Caesar Hotel, Wang Genquan rapidly aged and died, and Yang Jian concluded that the curse kept him from living in the present beyond the hotel.

Yang Jian concealed the Caesar Hotel’s golden door by rearranging the building, then visited Tong Qian after she woke in the hospital. Tong Qian’s consciousness had shifted onto her ghost face, and Yang Jian tested how its killing instinct could affect her.

• Yang Jian used his Ghost Domain to remodel the Caesar Hotel, hiding the fourth floor and the golden door between other floors.
• Li Yang told Yang Jian that Tong Qian had awakened, and they went to the hospital to see her.
• Yang Jian determined that Tong Qian had not been replaced by a ghost, but her consciousness had become fixed on her smiling ghost face.
• Tong Qian explained that she felt unfamiliar to herself and had lost emotions after the supernatural attack.
• Yang Jian discussed how a Ghost Tamer might become corrupted or retain control of themselves, then deliberately laughed to trigger Tong Qian’s ghost face.

Yang Jian warned Tong Qian that the Ghost Face’s instincts could erode her self-control, then returned to Dachang City with her and Li Yang after confirming the crisis at Caesar Hotel was contained. Back home, he found that Ghost Lake’s erosion had worsened and noticed a golden door near Wang Shanshan’s residence.

• Yang Jian explained that Tong Qian’s urge to turn toward him showed how the Ghost Face’s killing instinct could consume her, and Tong Qian vowed to restrain herself rather than abandon her duty as a Ghost Tamer.
• Tong Qian spotted the ghost following her when she turned her head, while Yang Jian and Li Yang checked the city and confirmed no other supernatural incidents remained.
• Yang Jian ordered the liaison officer to keep Caesar Hotel blocked off, then took Tong Qian and Li Yang back to Dachang City through his Ghost Domain.
• Yang Jian warned Tong Qian to monitor the ghost following her and maintain control, then accepted the bag of burning bones from Li Yang.
• Yang Jian stored the burning bones, put on a golden glove to contain his burning ghost hand, and realized Ghost Lake’s erosion had worsened.
• Yang Jian checked the lingering Ghost Cabinet curse and then looked toward Wang Shanshan’s residence, where a golden door stood.

Yang Jian returned home and considered the mysterious golden door at Wang Shanshan's residence, deciding not to investigate it yet. He Yuelian then arrived seeking his protection and help uncovering her origins, and Yang Jian sent her to Dahan City to find Sun Rui at Hell Apartment.

• Yang Jian recalled the golden door in the old building and decided he was not ready to open it.
• Yang Jian returned home to record his experiences, then prepared to visit Shangtong Building.
• He Yuelian arrived at Yang Jian's home and asked to stay close to him, offering to help investigate her mysterious identity.
• Yang Jian warned He Yuelian that she might be tied to a dangerous event approaching her twenty-fifth birthday.
• Yang Jian gave He Yuelian an address in Dahan City and instructed her to find Sun Rui and mention Zhang Xianguang.
• He Yuelian set out for Dahan City, and Yang Jian headed to Shangtong Building.

He Yuelian traveled to Dahan City to find Sun Rui, following Yang Jian’s instructions. After entering Hell Apartment, she told Sun Rui that Yang Jian had sent her to find Zhang Xianguang, a name Sun Rui had been investigating.

• He Yuelian called He Long, who said he could provide little information about Dahan City and identified Sun Rui as its missing person in charge.
• He Yuelian arrived in Dahan City and took a taxi to the unfinished building on Jianshe Road, despite rumors that the area was haunted and unsafe.
• A guard initially blocked He Yuelian from entering the building, then let her through after receiving an apparent instruction.
• He Yuelian crossed into Hell Apartment, where Sun Rui summoned her inside and questioned her about why Yang Jian had sent her.
• He Yuelian told Sun Rui she had been instructed to find Zhang Xianguang, prompting Sun Rui to recall his investigation into Zhang’s ties to the Ghost Post Office and Tian Xiaoyue.
