If one understood ghosts well enough, perhaps that person could be caught.
Most importantly, Ning Wei suspected that Lian Yun being killed by a werewolf was the ghost's doing.
Lian Yun's room was fine. Logically, a werewolf shouldn't have been able to open her room; this was a rule that could not be broken.
Ning Wei also told Lian Yun her guess, hoping she could recall more.
Moreover, since they were both ghosts, could they find the other one? After all, on the surface, they were in the same boat.
After hearing Ning Wei's words, Lian Yun was silent for a long time.
"When the door opened, only the werewolf was there. After I died, I only got up from the floor when the grandfather clock struck dawn. My body, which was like a rag, had completely recovered. But I knew in my heart that nothing would ever be the same."
"As for the other ghost, I really don't know who it is. But what you said reminded me, even though I'm dead, it doesn't mean I can't get revenge."
"I have a new idea now. I not only want to help you kill Sheng Kaiwei, but I also want to avenge myself and find that ghost."
"So, shall we cooperate?" After becoming a ghost, Lian Yun seemed much more confident. Perhaps it was because she had fewer worries, making her more carefree.
Ning Wei understood her meaning. While Lian Yun worked for her, Ning Wei also had to work for Lian Yun.
Between guests, because they were in the same faction, they could not conflict with each other. Similarly, ghosts were also the same.
Therefore, once Lian Yun found out who the ghost was, Ning Wei would need to capture the ghost as a guest. Only then would Lian Yun truly have no regrets.
This matter was a piece of cake for Ning Wei, so she extended her hand to Lian Yun: "Happy cooperation."
Lian Yun also smiled. At that moment, they reached a consensus.
Tang Tang and the others quickly came downstairs. Apart from the third floor where they were staying, they had searched all three other floors.
There was no blood, no traces. Therefore, they couldn't find out who had died last night.
"Now there are two ghosts, and we can't find any evidence. What do we do for lunch today? Just pick one randomly?"
Ghosts were traitors among the guests. The more ghosts there were, the more disadvantageous it was for the guests.
No one knew yet that Lian Yun was dead and that she had been killed by the first ghost.
Ning Wei organized all the current information. There were seventeen known guests and two ghosts. One of the ghosts was considered an ally.
The total number of werewolves outside should be twenty, the same as the initial number of guests. When they arrived last night, there were eighteen. Ning Wei and the others had dealt with three, leaving fifteen. As for whether the number would increase to match the guests, that could only be seen tonight.
But ghosts and werewolves were allied. So, even if Lian Yun was in the same faction as the guests, there was still one ghost lurking among the guests, serving the werewolves.
If this ghost hiding among the guests wasn't caught, then tonight, everyone's fate would be the same as Lian Yun's. Even if they chose the right room, they might still face the formidable werewolves.
Ning Wei's biggest concern was that if the number of ghosts increased, their team would not only have to deal with werewolves but also with ghosts who might attack them at any moment.
Fortunately, there was Lian Yun as an insider. As a new ghost, she didn't understand the rules of ghosts, nor their limits and scope.
Ning Wei wasn't worried. As long as Lian Yun was given enough time, she believed Lian Yun would fully understand her new identity.
Tang Tang and the others were very worried now because the identities of both ghosts were unfathomable.
Ning Wei thought for a moment, but in the end, she didn't reveal Lian Yun's identity to everyone.
It wasn't that she didn't trust her teammates, but the fewer people who knew about such things, the better.
Her teammates were good, but everyone had different personalities and tempers. If they were to keep a common secret, it was hard to say when they might inadvertently reveal it.
While everyone was here, Ning Wei spoke: "Since we can't find any clues, let's stop looking. The first ghost has been able to hide for so many days, which shows their strong mentality. Instead of this, it's better to wait and see. Perhaps they will make a move themselves when they can't bear it any longer."
"Then what do we do next?" Zhu Yilian was also someone who couldn't stay idle. Or rather, she was already immersed in this game.
Ning Wei waved her hand and announced: "Everyone is free to do as they please. You can go to the garden to enjoy the beautiful flowers, or you can lie on the sofa in the hall and sleep."
Ning Wei did this to create an opportunity for Lian Yun.
As long as her teammates acted separately, no one would notice Lian Yun leaving the group.
She needed Lian Yun to figure out what ghosts could do to guests, so that they could effectively guard against the first ghost.
"We're not catching ghosts anymore?" Wang Jing was a little surprised by Ning Wei's actions.
"Ghosts haven't harmed us anyway. Maybe this ghost won't do anything bad?" Ning Wei began to sow confusion.
Although they didn't entirely agree with her viewpoint, recalling the past few days, apart from Qin An's attempt to attack Sheng Kaiwei after being exposed, the two ghosts who had not yet been found had indeed done nothing.
Even if they doubted it, they wouldn't say it. They believed Ning Wei had her reasons for doing things.
Since she had arranged it this way, everyone would just follow.
So, except for Song Zhi, who was the most seriously injured last night, everyone else dispersed, but still in pairs, wandering aimlessly in the castle.
Ning Wei had ten green special effect potions from Wu Qing. After Song Zhi took one, his wound was visibly healing. He should be completely recovered before dark tonight.
Since the medicine was so effective, Ning Wei took one and divided it into several portions, then let other injured people take some.
Song Zhi occupied a sofa by himself. Even knowing that werewolf fur was pressed beneath him, he could still lie down with peace of mind.
Ning Wei was not idle either. She walked around the castle, looking for Lian Yun.
There was a lighthouse-like building in the castle. Ning Wei stood by a window on the fifth floor and saw Sheng Kaiwei standing there.
He was observing what Tang Tang and the others were doing. In fact, Tang Tang and the others were just walking around aimlessly.
But Sheng Kaiwei didn't think so, so he chose a secluded spot from where he could observe his surroundings.
For Lian Yun, this was a good opportunity, as there was no one else on the lighthouse except Sheng Kaiwei.
Sheng Kaiwei was so focused on observing that he had no idea of the imminent hands reaching out from behind him.
Lian Yun had seen Ning Wei long ago. After giving her a reassuring gesture, she suddenly attacked Sheng Kaiwei!
