I open an adventure house in the mysterious world of recovery

Chapter 41 Sleepwalking Incident
Li Leping, one of the captains of the headquarters, is a man who controls four ghosts at the same time, namely the Sleepwalker Ghost, the Searching Ghost, the Ghost Smoker and the Forgotten Ghost.

And this control happened very early. At least during the Starving Ghost Incident, he should have already controlled four ghosts, but it was not perfect yet.

At this time, Tang Long didn't know how many ghosts Li Leping had controlled, but the strange smell of smoke he smelled was exactly the same as the description of ghost smoke in the original article.

Following the smell of cigarette smoke, Tang Long walked past a building and saw a man wearing sunglasses and a crew cut coming out of the building. That building... was Building 7.

"This smell of cigarette smoke is coming from his body." Tang Long moved the tip of his nose and made a judgment in his mind.

There is no description of Li Leping's appearance in the original work, because he is a person who cannot be remembered, which is a side effect of mastering the forgotten ghost.

But Tang Long glanced at the person in front of him for a few times, turned his head away and closed his eyes, but his image could still appear in his mind. When he turned back to look at him, he still recognized him.

"A Li Leping who can be remembered?"

He frowned, stepped forward and asked straight to the point: "Are you Li Leping, the person in charge of Dachuan City?"

"I am." Hearing the word "person in charge", Li Leping was obviously startled, "May I ask who you are?"

"I am a collaborator from the headquarters, Tang Long." Tang Long showed his satellite phone. "If you don't believe it, you can ask your operator to contact the headquarters to verify."

The destruction of the circle of friends was not reported outside the headquarters. Although the fire was definitely not contained in the paper in the end, it did not become known to everyone so quickly.

Tang Long is still an unknown person in the supernatural circle of Dajian City. Li Leping doesn't know him. He nodded politely to show friendship, and then became enthusiastic after confirming with the operator.

Because the operator reminded him that the deputy minister had personally warned him not to provoke this Tang Long, and he would try his best to cooperate with him in whatever he wanted to do.

Li Leping is a smart man and of course he understands what this means.

"Mr. Tang, what do you want from me?"

Tang Long brought out the rhetoric of his haunted house owner again, and then asked: "I saw a rumor on the Internet that Mingyue Community is haunted. Is it true?"

Seeing Li Leping appear here, Tang Long was already half convinced, otherwise why would he, a responsible person, go to such an old community?

Li Leping pondered for a moment and then said: "Actually, it's not just online. The police station in Dachuan City also receives calls every day to report that something strange is happening in Mingyue Community."

"Something weird?" Tang Long became serious. When he asked the taxi driver, the taxi driver clearly answered that he had nothing.

"Yes, the police station receives calls almost every day, saying that someone is sleepwalking in Mingyue Community." Li Leping looked helpless, "Generally speaking, sleepwalking is not under the control of the Interpol, not even the ordinary police station. , but the people who sleepwalk are different every night, and these people have never sleepwalked before.”

"Of course, this is not the weirdest thing. What really caught my attention was that when I came to take notes the next day, the people who called the police claimed that they did not call the police at all. Obviously the call records on the mobile phone were all there, but they couldn't find anything. Can not remember."

"If one or two people did this, it might be a prank. The strange thing is that no one remembers it because there have been no casualties, so the police don't care much."

Li Leping's expression became serious: "But I personally think there must be something wrong with this Mingyue Community."

"Of course there is a problem." Tang Long's eyelids twitched. According to Li Leping's description, there should be two ghosts wandering around in Mingyue Community.

The sleepwalking ghost and the forgotten ghost are also the two ghosts that Li Leping will control in the future!
As for the fact that there were no casualties... because Meng Xiaodong was still suppressing him here, it was impossible for the evil ghost to hurt anyone.

So the question becomes, why didn’t Meng Xiaodong imprison these two ghosts himself?Tang Long guessed that they were probably training new people.

The Seven Elders were worried about this world. Not only did they turn into ghosts to guard a supernatural place after death, but they also cultivated a successor like Mr. Qin who was a link between the past and the future. Meng Xiaodong also realized that his end was approaching. Prepare to train a successor to manage Mingyue Community.

The Sleepwalker Ghost and the Forgotten Ghost are originally in conflict with each other. They are two ghosts that can be directly controlled as one. They use the Forgotten Ghost to forget the murderous rules of the Sleepwalker Ghost and become completely alien. This was also Li Leping's later choice.

Now it seems that he is probably the successor trained by Meng Xiaodong. This explains why in the early stage when he was considered a master in controlling two ghosts, Li Leping has already controlled four ghosts, and why the ghost shadow head has completely occupied Dachuan City. He still refuses to leave, why does he insist on staying in Mingyue Community even if he has a big problem?

This is just a guess, but Tang Long feels that no matter whether the guess is correct or not, it is okay to leave it to Li Leping to handle it. Anyway, there have been no casualties for so long, which means that Meng Xiaodong is watching, and there is no need for him to rob others. opportunities.

But just when Tang Long was about to say goodbye, he accidentally looked up and his expression suddenly changed.

Li Leping came out of the seventh building, so he who came to talk was now under the seventh building, and in the window on the third floor, there was a lifeless old woman standing.

"Meng Xiaodong?"

Tang Long's expression changed. He was still a little unsure at first, but then the other party slowly raised his hand, with a bright red cheongsam on his arm.

This is exactly what I need for my mission, Zhang Youhong's red cheongsam.

At the same time, a prompt on the black mobile phone also came: "Preliminary side mission [-] of Sandalwood Pavilion, red cheongsam has been triggered!"

Red cheongsam: It was my favorite piece of clothing when I was alive, but now it can only be worn on dolls.Screaming index: three stars.

Mission content: Help Li Leping imprison the evil spirits wandering in Mingyue Community.

Task Tip: If you have been suffering from insomnia, why not try sleepwalking?
"coming!"

Tang Long looked at the task on the black mobile phone and felt a shiver in his heart. It seemed that Meng Xiaodong wanted to use this task to test Li Leping and himself at the same time. If she could complete this task, she would not refuse the red cheongsam.

So he said, "If you don't mind, how about letting me help investigate this matter together?"

"Of course that's what you want."

While Tang Long was looking at the black mobile phone, Li Leping was not idle and asked his operator to send Tang Long's information.

The result was unknown, but one was shocked to see that this Tang Long actually helped the headquarters solve the A-level incident of Knocker, the B-level incident of Huanggang Village, and the A-level incident of Yuntian Palace.

Of the three incidents, none of them were below level B. It was certainly impossible for Li Leping to refuse help from such a person.

Unknowingly, Tang Long's achievements have amazed many people in charge at the headquarters, especially the Yuntian Palace incident. There was not a single victim in the A-level supernatural incident. It was simply a miracle.

And this was the result of Wang Xiaoming hiding the existence of ghosts and turning the original S-level incident into a B-level incident.

"Any clues?" Since the other party agreed to his intrusion, Tang Long asked for information sharing honestly and politely.

"The staff have interviewed all the residents, but those who sleepwalked have nothing in common. Those who called the police also didn't know anything. They even forgot what they had for dinner that day."

Li Leping looked back and suddenly said in a low voice: "But my intuition tells me that the old woman in room 301 is very unusual. I think this incident should be related to her."

There is a natural attraction between ghost controllers and supernatural beings. It is normal for Li Leping to make this judgment, but Tang Longxin said that although the two ghosts may have been released by the old woman, we cannot settle the score with her.

So he changed the topic: "Then, please ask the staff to compile a list of people suffering from insomnia in Mingyue Community and give it to me."

"How many people have insomnia?" Li Leping was a little confused, but recalling the deputy minister's instructions, he nodded and obeyed.

While waiting for the intelligence reply, the two sat in the pavilion in the community and chatted for a while. At this time, Li Leping had not controlled the Forgotten Ghost, so he was relatively normal, not as lonely and cold as he would be in the future.

"By the way, how's your sleep quality lately?" Suddenly, Tang Long asked.

"It's pretty good." Li Leping replied casually, "There haven't been any supernatural incidents these days. I slept until dawn."

"That's pretty good." Tang Long smiled, "Not many ghost controllers can sleep well."

He tested it a little, and although Li Leping didn't admit it directly, he was sure that the other party now controlled two ghosts.

Because a ghost controller who only controls one fierce ghost will be affected by the resuscitation every day when he sleeps. Let alone sleeping peacefully, even being able to squint for a while is a luxury.

The same goes for Yang Jian, who had only mastered ghost eyes before.

Sleepwalking ghosts and forgotten ghosts are wandering in the community, so what Li Leping is controlling at this time should be ghosts looking for people and ghost smoke.

Among his four ghosts, the scariest one is actually the one looking for someone. Although the sleepwalking ghost and the oblivion ghost have weird abilities, they should be slightly less terrifying than the original knocking ghost. Otherwise, this mission would not be a three-star one. .

Soon, Li Leping was surprised when he heard the report: "Mr. Tang, you guessed it right. Those sleepwalkers do have something in common, that is, they have been troubled by insomnia for the past week."

"The hint from the black phone is indeed correct."

Tang Long was delighted: "How many insomniacs are there in the entire Mingyue Community?"

"Do you think the next sleepwalker will appear among the remaining people?" Li Leping also reacted immediately, "There are seven more people living in different locations in Mingyue Community. Should we gather them together for surveillance? …”

As Li Leping spoke, his expression suddenly changed: "Mr. Tang, did you doubt me just now..."

"Don't think too much, just rule out accidents."

Tang Long waved his hand. If Li Leping only controlled one ghost, he would have to be more vigilant, but since he could sleep peacefully after controlling two ghosts, he should be safe and harmless.

Of course, this is theoretically the case, and you should still be wary of yourself when you should.
