"Is this your home?"

Yang Jian drove Zhang Wei to a place that looked like a manor.

There are no skyscrapers in sight; this area is filled with upscale residential communities. In this part of the city, a villa like this would cost at least tens of millions.

Only wealthy people can afford to live here.

"No, this is just one of my homes," Zhang Wei said, raising an eyebrow with a hint of pride.

"."

All right.

I shouldn't have asked; it gave this guy a chance to show off.

"Sir, could you please stop the car?"

Just then, the community security guard stopped Yang Jian's car.

"Excuse me, sir?" Yang Jian asked, rolling down the car window.

"Sir, you're not a resident here, are you? Our rules state that non-residents are not allowed to enter," the security guard said. "We hope this gentleman will cooperate with our work."

"Zhang Wei, aren't you going to say anything?" Yang Jian.

"Sir, what is your friend next to you doing?" The security guard vaguely saw that Zhang Wei seemed to be holding a gun and immediately became alert.

"I'm masturbating, what's up?"

Zhang Wei looked up, puzzled, and asked, "Why are you stopping my car? This is my friend; he's giving me a ride home. Could you please make an exception?"

The security guard looked him over suspiciously, clearly recognizing Zhang Wei. He also noticed the Golden Desert Eagle in Zhang Wei's hand and even saw the bullets nearby.

He thought for a moment, then waved to indicate his presence.

"It's alright, you can go in now."

"Thank you," Yang Jian said, then drove inside.

"The security here is really tight. Rich people live in different places. Speaking of which, playing with a gun so openly in your car like that is easy to get reported. Can't you be a little more mindful of the consequences?"

Zhang Wei said, "The security guards here won't care about these things. Don't even mention if you're carrying a handgun, they won't question you even if you're carrying a rocket launcher. They won't reveal a single thing about the residents' private affairs. I even saw someone keeping a tiger in the community last time."

"Are you kidding me? You can raise that kind of thing?"

"It was a little tiger, about the size of a dog, but it wasn't kept for long before other residents reported it, and it ended up being sent to the zoo," Zhang Wei said. "Of course, that's nothing. I once saw a rich kid walking around the garden with two beautiful girls, one in each hand."

"Chasing around with pretty girls?" Yang Jian looked at him.

Zhang Wei said, "They tied a rope around the woman's neck and made her crawl on the ground like a dog. I think one of them was some kind of third-tier celebrity."

"Damn, you rich people are all perverts," Yang Jian cursed.

"I also think it's weird. I often feel out of place with them because I'm not weird enough, and I can never really hang out with them. I even used to wonder if I was abnormal. Now I understand, it's them who are abnormal." Zhang Wei nodded in deep agreement.

"Now I understand why you are so outstanding," Yang Jian.

It turns out this guy grew up with a bunch of rich freaks.

"That villa up ahead is my home," Zhang Wei said, pointing ahead.

Soon.

A villa covering nearly a thousand square meters appeared before them, with a swimming pool in the front yard and many valuable ornamental trees planted in the backyard. Just by looking at it, one could tell that it was very valuable.

"This guy is no ordinary rich kid," Yang Jian thought to himself.

The definition of a "second-generation rich" depends on how rich they are. Zhang Wei's level likely means his family has at least several billion yuan, making him a "tycoon."

However, a cordon had been set up around the villa, and an officer was on guard. A sign nearby read, "Natural gas pipeline leak, danger, do not approach."

"It was Captain Liu who ordered the blockade." Yang Jian remembered that he had spoken to Captain Liu on the phone before.

Tell him to send people to seal off Zhang Wei's residence.

The purpose was to prevent Zhang Wei's house from being haunted, and to ensure the safety of his family. Captain Liu also did not want the supernatural event to escalate and cause more casualties and losses in Dachang City, so he had to seal off the area for both official and private reasons.

A false excuse is the best way to cover up the truth.

Otherwise, if the wealthy people living here knew this place was haunted, they would have run away immediately.

"Hello, I am the Ghost Tamer that Captain Liu invited to resolve this special incident. I need to enter this house now," Yang Jian said as he walked over.

"You're Yang Jian, right? We met at Furen Shopping Mall before. It's so good that you could come; otherwise, we don't know how long this matter would have dragged on." The investigator seemed relieved.

After all, sealing off a house that might be haunted is a lot of psychological stress.

Yang Jian, "Leave things here to me. You can withdraw your team."

"I need to ask for permission first," the investigator said. "You can go in now, but please be careful."

Thank you.

Yang Jian nodded before entering the villa.

He knew very well.

There was no ghost in the house; everything was normal. The ghost in the mirror had actually been following Zhang Wei all along.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you standing at the door and not coming in?" Yang Jian walked in and saw Zhang Wei standing at the door, hesitating.

"The house might be haunted, so I won't go in, Brother Leg. You can go, I can't help you anyway," Zhang Wei said with an embarrassed smile.

Yang Jian, "How can this be resolved if you don't come in? If you keep nagging like this, I'm not going to help you anymore. This supernatural event is all about you. Don't blame us for not helping you when you die someday."

"No need to take off your shoes, there's juice and coffee at home, what would you like to drink?" Zhang Wei rushed into the house.

"Give me a glass of juice."

Zhang Wei said, "The juice seems to have gone bad. I haven't been home for the past few days, and no one has taken care of it."

"Then coffee, please."

"I don't know how to make tea."

"Then let's have plain water," Yang Jian.

"It seems the water supply has been cut off," Zhang Wei said.

Yang Jian, "Then let's forget about it."

"How can we let it go? It's your first time visiting my home, of course I want to treat you well," Zhang Wei said. "We absolutely can't let it go so easily. Tell me, what would you like to drink?"

"You have nothing at home, what's the point of drinking?" Yang Jian.

"How about we make do and open a bottle of Lafite for you? I remember we have a few cases in the cellar, and some Maotai too," Zhang Wei said. "You wait here."

"Alright, alright, I know you're rich. Now let's get down to business. The first time you encountered a ghost was at home. Do you remember where it was?" Yang Jian asked.

Zhang Wei looked bewildered and said, "I don't know. Didn't you say my house is haunted?"

"."

"I don't want to talk to you right now. You can see for yourself whether your house is haunted or not." Yang Jian saw a makeup mirror on the table and handed it to him.

"If I'm not mistaken, that ghost is still with you, you just can't see it. Use a mirror to look around yourself and see what's following you."

"What a joke! With your Brother Leg here, what Ghost Monster would dare to harm me? No need to look," Zhang Wei said.

Yang Jian, "Are you scared?"

"Me, Zhang Wei, afraid? Brother Leg, are you being honest?" Zhang Wei said.

"Then take a look for yourself." Yang Jian handed over the mirror.

Zhang Wei swallowed hard. "You really want to see?"

"Certainly."
