"Oh! So angry! I definitely will beat him up if I ever get the chance!"
In the duty room, Zhou Jin rubbed his car keys wildly in his hand.
Zhou Jin's mind was still replaying the conversation he just had with Lu Jiannian.
That arrogant attitude and the actual threat.
This is an event that Zhou Jin has never encountered in his two lives.
"It's just an official title, what's so great about it? Can it be any more grandiose than the sixth prince of the underworld?"
Zhou Jin forcefully twisted the car keys in his hand, as if he wanted to vent all his anger.
The ghost car is really pissed off now.
Day after day, can't it calm down for a moment?
It was first presented as a gift by the ghost official, then discovered by a human awakened person, and now it has become Zhou Jin's outlet for venting anger.
Doesn't it, the ghost car, have the right to be a ghost?
Is nobody going to take charge of this!
Zhou Jin vented for a while, and it was already 6 o'clock in the evening.
With the idea of turning grudge into appetite, Zhou Jin went to the canteen and ordered a table full of dishes.
Just as Zhou Jin was about to indulge in a hearty meal, the car keys in his pocket once again caused trouble.
Zhou Jin could clearly feel that the state of the car keys at this moment was even more absurd than it was in the afternoon.
In the afternoon when threatened by Lu Jiannian, the car keys only shook slightly.
But now...
After a series of violent shakes, the car keys finally fell silent.
It's as if it has died.
There's a sense of throwing in the towel and completely giving up, like knowing there's no way to escape.
The problem is, no one is threatening it now.
What is it afraid of?
Zhou Jin inserted his hand into his pants pocket while subtly surveying the surroundings.
This is the first time she has observed this place while having dinner.
At first glance, the style of the canteen is no different from that of an ordinary canteen.
It's just that there are fewer customers than at noon, and they are now gathered in groups of three or four around a table, quietly chewing without making a sound.
Wait, quietly?
Zhou Jin's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
She immediately widened her eyes and observed carefully.
Don't look at it, don't worry, but the more you look at it, the more heart-pounding it is.
There are nearly twenty people in the canteen, but at this moment, not a single person is making even a sound.
No talking sounds.
No sound of colliding utensils and dishes.
Not even the sound of chewing!
Had Zhou Jin not been able to see their eating movements right now!
She even doubts that she is the only one here.
Zhou Jin suddenly lost all appetite.
She now just wants to quickly leave this eerie canteen.
No, it should be said that leave this eerie mental hospital!
Just as Zhou Jin got up, everyone around suddenly turned their gaze towards Zhou Jin's position.
Being watched by a group of lifeless humanoid objects, Zhou Jin's heart stopped suddenly, too nervous to make any extra moves.
"All right, you scared the girl, so just finish eating and get out of here!"
Just as Zhou Jin wondered if she might be silenced by these things, a familiar voice rang out.
Zhou Jin immediately followed the direction of the voice and saw the head nurse of the mental hospital holding a tray, watching her leisurely.
"Don't be nervous, Zhou. Sit down."
The head nurse smiled gently.
But in such an extremely panicked environment, Zhou Jin felt that the smile of the head nurse had another meaning, and it didn't seem like a good person.
"Oh, you're eating so much today, do you have a birthday today? Wait, no, I don't think it's your birthday."
The head nurse didn't pay attention to Zhou Jin's tension and sat down opposite Zhou Jin, making a joke at her as well.
"Nurse...head nurse."
Zhou Jin opened her mouth hesitantly, her sidelong glance still observing the nurses around.
Zhou Jin saw that these guards also followed the head nurse's seating and returned to their seats, continuing the silent meal segment.
"What are you nervous about? Just sit down. After all, you're also an awakened person, how can your courage still be so small."
The head nurse spoke surprisingly, calling Zhou Jin to sit down while picking up a dish of food for her.
"Indeed, young girls need to eat more, and since you're also an awakened person who can control ghosts, if you're not in good condition, be careful of being overwhelmed by ghosts."
Ghost controller?
Zhou Jin was once again stunned by the head nurse's words, and her body followed her instructions and sat down again.
"Hmm, you don't even know what your awakening is?"
"Well, that's understandable. After all, you're a new awakening person without any mentors or teachers. There's still a long way to go to figure these things out."
The head nurse ate her dinner very casually, completely ignoring the huge shock she caused Zhou Jin.
"So, are you also?"
Zhou Jin blinked her big eyes.
"Of course. And I'm also like you, a ghost controller!"
As soon as the head nurse finished her sentence, a faint pink shadow appeared behind her.
The shadow took on a humanoid shape, appearing like an ordinary female nurse.
The female nurse was wearing a tight-fitting uniform, high heels on her feet, holding a smooth surgical knife in her left hand, and a large syringe in her right hand.
Had it not been for the twisted whirlpool on the face of the female nurse, Zhou Jin almost mistook it for what you'd call a uniform temptress.
"This is my ghost, Demon Nurse. How do you like it? Isn't it beautiful?"
The head nurse turned to admire her summoned ghost, with a face full of pride.
In Zhou Jin's eyes, she saw a thin red line spreading from one end to the Demon Nurse, finally splitting into two streams that connected to the surgical knife and syringe in the Demon Nurse's hands respectively.
One ghost, two ethereal items!
"Why don't you call out your ghost?"
Before Zhou Jin could figure out how to touch the ethereal items, the head nurse casually waved her hand, and the Demon Nurse vanished into thin air.
The red line disappeared as well.
"My ghost?"
Zhou Jin took out the car keys from her pocket.
The only ghost she had on her was the ghost car she had just obtained that very day.
"Key? Your ghost is an item? A car?"
The head nurse looked at the key Zhou Jin took out, full of surprise.
According to the head nurse's original plan, she had wanted to take this opportunity to give Zhou Jin some advice, so that Zhou Jin could better meet the expectations of the director.
But now...
She doesn't know how to enhance this ghost car either.
Does that mean changing parts of the car?
You can't drive around at night and run into people!
"Hmm?"
Silence was the main theme of the night. Even as the nurses next to her finished their meal and left, the head nurse still remained silent.
This made Zhou Jin feel a bit embarrassed.
Does that mean her ghost car isn't up to scratch?
The car key of the ghost car, amidst the eerie silence, inexplicably felt a trace of shame, as if it were being looked down upon.
