Chapter 308 - 310: I Have a Way
An atmosphere of despair enveloped the bus. Many people had already started typing on their phones, as if writing their last words.
Su Nian lifted her chin slightly, her eyes narrowing as she gazed toward the driver’s seat.
’So many ghosts this time around!’
[I feel so hopeless!]
[Why isn’t the streamer making her move yet?!]
[The streamer definitely has her reasons. It’s none of your business!]
Su Nian watched as a figure wreathed in black energy, leaving a trail of wet footprints, slowly approached...
It moved with painstaking slowness, and with every step it took, another light blinked out.
The corners of Su Nian’s lips lifted slightly. In a flat tone, she said, "The lights are about to go out completely..."
And just as the words left her mouth, the bus was plunged into complete darkness...
In the darkness, deprived of sight, everyone’s other senses were infinitely magnified.
The sound of a girl’s sobbing grew louder, joined by startled gasps from others.
"Sh-sh-she must be the ghost!"
"She’s so close to me, I’m so scared!"
This made others even more convinced that Su Nian was the ghost.
Su Nian’s expression remained calm.
The next second, she calmly turned on her flashlight.
But this only made more people cry out in alarm.
"You’re the ghost!"
"What is it you want?!"
"If you have some grievance, just tell us! We’ll all help you, just please don’t kill anyone!"
[??? What is this? They seriously think the Master is the ghost?]
[Right? The Master’s whole vibe doesn’t seem ghostly at all!]
[Now I’m just curious who on this bus is actually the ghost!]
[It’s obviously the driver.]
Su Nian remained silent. She saw the figure lurking in the darkness slowly turn back, carrying something in his hand.
CLICK...
The lights came on...
The sudden brightness stirred the passengers into a frenzy once more.
But this time, all suspicious eyes turned to Su Nian.
An old lady even burst into tears.
"I’m an old woman, I don’t have many days left to live. I’m begging you, please don’t harm me!"
Another person, seeing an opportunity, tried to rally the others.
"She’s definitely the ghost. If we all rush her and pin her down, we’ll be fine!"
The moment he said it, Su Nian saw looks of temptation flash across several faces.
To be honest, Su Nian didn’t like seeing them like this, but she wanted to observe a little longer and see what the three ghosts on the bus were truly planning.
Su Nian observed the passengers accusing her, the larger group that chose to remain silent, and those who were quietly looking her over, weighing whether the man’s plan was even possible.
Su Nian couldn’t help but laugh. She was a beautiful woman, usually wearing a faint, gentle smile, but now her eyes curved into crescents as she grinned.
A face like that was enough to make one’s heart skip a beat ten thousand times over.
The man who had just made the suggestion stood up, glaring menacingly at Su Nian.
Su Nian simply grabbed another handrail. This time, she snapped it right off before kneading the metal into a ball.
She tossed it to the floor. The entire process of creating the steel ball, complete with fingerprints, had taken no more than three seconds.
The man awkwardly sat back down.
[Hahahaha, I love it when the streamer shows off with that Easy Breeze look on her face.]
[That guy’s expression is hilarious!]
[Okay, so we know the streamer isn’t a ghost and the driver is. Why aren’t the other people on the bus targeting the ghost driver?!]
Su Nian picked up the steel rod and tapped it against her palm. "I’m special personnel. My job today is to investigate this supernatural incident."
"Now, please follow my lead."
"Says who? I don’t believe a word of it!"
The man muttered under his breath, his head lowered.
Su Nian shot him a casual glance.
"Fine, then. I’ll leave you to it. As for everyone else who trusts me, I’m getting you out of here right now."
The moment Su Nian spoke, the passengers’ eyes lit up.
The little girl eagerly asked, "How are we going to leave?"
Su Nian smoothly got up from her seat. "Wait and see."
Then, with nimble movements, she pried open the bus doors.
[I knew it was going to be something like this.]
[The streamer’s methods are as simple and efficient as always.]
[More like simple and brutal!]
The little girl was stunned. She looked at Su Nian prying open the doors, then at the pitch-black darkness outside.
For a moment, she was at a loss for words, feeling that this so-called special agent was a little bit sketchy.
CLICK...
But the lights went out again...
That shadowy figure began walking toward the back of the bus.
