Chapter 53: Raising a Ghost! (Please collect!)

  "Master, this person should have been killed by a ghost," said Long Guanjia, "but it can also be said that he was killed by human hands." Chu Feng slightly stunned: "What do you mean?"

  "Master, have you ever heard of raising ghosts?" asked Long the butler. Chu Feng thought to himself: "I know a bit about it, I've heard that Thailand is quite popular with ghost-raising, but I only read about it online, so I'm not sure if it's true or not. Long the butler, I roughly understand what you're getting at - you're saying that Wei Gang was killed by a ghost, but that ghost was raised by someone, which means this is actually a case of joint murder, right?!"

  "Yes, Master," said Long Guanjia. "This person's skin is pale blue, and his lips have changed color too. However, there is only a faint ghostly aura on his body, without any evil or killing energy. So I deduce that he was possessed by a ghost and scared to death!" "Long Guanjia, can we find the murderer?" asked Chu Feng. "Raising ghosts to kill people, that guy's karma debt will be huge."

  "Master, it's a matter of luck. This person has a faint aura of ghost energy on them. If the ghost appears within 100 meters of you, you'll naturally be able to detect it. But if it's not within that range, there's nothing we can do. Once we find the ghost being nurtured, we can then locate its master." said Long, the butler.

  At this time, Captain Liang looked around the body again, but still couldn't find anything. "Comrade, I don't know if you've found anything," said the female police officer with a slightly unpleasant expression. The corpse didn't look very good, and it was understandable that the female comrade had a small temper and looked uncomfortable.

  Chu Feng nodded slightly: "I've figured out a little something, but what I tell you, don't go spreading it around, or else we might scare off the murderer."

  "You really figured it out? Hmm, you said there's a murderer, which means it wasn't the ghost that killed?" The female police officer said, "By the way, my surname is Zhang. I don't know your name, classmate."

  "Officer Zhang, just call me Little Chu," said Chu Feng. "Can you guarantee what I just said? I don't want to stir up any trouble before we catch the killer."

  "Hello, I'm Liang Tong. I'll be in charge of this case. You can rest assured that before we crack the case, I guarantee not to let any irrelevant people know about it."

  Chu Feng nodded slightly: "Just now, Officer Zhang was wrong. This person was indeed killed by a ghost, but there is also a murderer. There is a faint aura of the ghost on his body, obviously possessed by a ghost before, but if he were killed by an evil spirit, it wouldn't be just a faint aura of the ghost, and there would also be strong evil energy and killing energy."

  "Xiao Chu, what exactly are you trying to say?" the officer asked. "If it was a ghost that killed him, why is there still a murderer? Are ghosts also raised by humans or something?"

  Chu Feng smiled slightly: "Officer Zhang is right this time, no mistake, this person was indeed killed by a ghost raised by someone else. The art of raising ghosts, perhaps you have also heard some rumors about it."

  The police officer's face turned even uglier, his voice trembling slightly as he said: "Xiao Chu, is it true that there are ghosts in this world? And can they be raised by humans?"

  "I don't believe there are any ghosts in this world!" Captain Liang frowned and said. At this time, the old doctor's face turned serious and he spoke up: "I was just wondering why you brought him here, but it turns out that he has studied ghosts. Captain Liang, I don't know if you believe me or not?"

  Li team leader nodded and said: "Dr. Jiang, I naturally believe what you say." The old doctor nodded slightly: "So what I want to say is that there are really ghosts in this world, and they can be raised by people. Many years ago, I saw one with my own eyes. It was when I was 30 years old and went to Thailand, where a friend of mine lived. What I saw was a small ghost, which was raised by my friend himself. At that time, it was quite popular in that place, but now I'm not sure. Ten years ago, my friend died from the backlash of his own raised little ghost."

  "It's really a ghost!" The police officer didn't scream, but a young male cop in his twenties did, "The ghost won't be near us, will it?!!"

  "What nonsense!" Officer Zhang's face turned pale as he glared at the male police officer. Chu Feng smiled slightly and said, "Everyone can rest assured, that ghost is not nearby, even if it were, you don't need to be afraid. Extremely powerful vengeful spirits I can temporarily deal with, but ordinary vengeful spirits are no problem. Powerful ghost souls aren't easy to cultivate, I've determined that the ghost soul shouldn't be too powerful, even if it comes, I can capture it."

  Chu Feng's words made the faces of those police officers look a bit better. "Little Chu, I didn't expect you to be a real ghost catcher," said Liang Tong. "We were suspicious of you before and it was embarrassing. For this case, you must help us out. We're good at catching people, but not ghosts." He added, "We won't let you work for nothing either. If the case is solved, there will definitely be a share of the reward for you."

  Even without the reward, Chu Feng didn't plan to give up on this case. When Liang Tong said that, Chu Feng naturally nodded: "Captain Liang, I'll help with this case. If the murderer is indeed in this hospital and that little ghost also appears nearby, it should be possible to find them. However, if they've already taken their little ghost far away, then there's nothing I can do."

  Liang Tong's eyes lit up: "Xiao Chu, you mean that no other means are needed, as long as the murderer is near the hospital, they can be found?" Chu Feng nodded slightly: "Yes, this person has a faint ghostly aura on them, this ghostly aura is from the ghost that was possessed. If the ghost is nearby, it can naturally be discovered. Once the ghost is discovered, finding the murderer will be easy."

  "Xiao Chu, then trouble you to take a look around the hospital, see if the culprit is still in the hospital. By the way, can you stay overnight at the hospital tonight? If the perpetrator is someone from within the hospital, maybe they're working the night shift. I'll notify the hospital administration that no one is allowed to take leave today!" said Liang Tongdao.

  Chu Feng smiled and said, "If it's really an insider, that would be great. It would be easy to find them then. The person who raises ghosts must also have some ghostly aura on their body. As long as we gather everyone together, we should be able to tell."

  "Shall we gather the people now?" Officer Zhang said. Liang Tong shook his head: "No, that would alarm them. If it's someone from within the hospital, then there's no problem. But if it's not an internal person, they might just run away and never come back to this hospital again. Little Chu, is it convenient for you to stay overnight tonight? Don't worry, we'll also be staying here."

  Chu Feng nodded: "Okay, but if we can't find it tonight, I won't have time tomorrow. My parents are coming over and I need to take them out for a stroll."

  "This won't delay your filial piety," said Liang Tong. "Then, I and Xiao Zhang will take you around for a spin? You others, investigate the situation of some people who may have conflicts with Wei Gang. The person raising ghosts shouldn't be without any abnormalities at all, right? Also, check if Dr. Wei has offended any patients, this needs to be investigated too."

  "Yes, Captain Liang!" Those few male comrades secretly let out a sigh of relief in their hearts. Compared to going around looking for ghosts everywhere, they would rather do something that involves interacting with people...

  "Li, I'm more familiar with the hospital situation, I'll go with you. Anyway, I couldn't find out anything from this corpse, and maybe it's not necessary to study it anymore." The old doctor said.

  Liang Tong smiled and said, "If Dr. Jiang accompanies you, that would be the best. Dr. Jiang, you have been in this hospital for over 20 years, so I'm sure you're familiar with every nook and cranny."

  "Heh heh, wait a minute, I'll put this corpse away." The old doctor quickly pushed the corpse into a cold storage cabinet. It was quite hot today, and if they didn't store it in the cold, the whole room would soon be filled with a foul odor!

  The corpse was refrigerated, and Chu Feng and the others also left the laboratory. "Long Guanjia, you must be careful not to let that ghost get close to us without knowing it." Chu Feng said in his mind, having never dealt with ghosts before, although he had Sheng Yin now, but there was still a little drumming in his heart.

  "Master, rest assured, as long as that ghost appears within a hundred meters, I will let you know." Long the steward smiled. "That's great!" Chu Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his mind.
