Chapter 30: Deal with the Newspaper

Chapter 30: Deal with the Newspaper
Zhang Hao was startled by the sudden outstretched hands and wanted to step back immediately.

However, those hands grabbed him at an extremely strange speed.

The moment he was grabbed, Zhang Hao felt that his body had lost the ability to move, and the evil spirit in his body seemed to be suppressed.

The ghost bride also noticed that Zhang Hao was caught by other evil ghosts, so she took a step forward and held Zhang Hao's other hand.

From the ghost bride's body, the terrifying spiritual power began to flow into Zhang Hao's body, fighting against the pair of blue-black ghost hands.

With the addition of the ghost bride, Zhang Hao's physical pressure was reduced a lot. He looked in the direction where the hands were stretched out.

A middle-aged man appeared at some point behind the wooden counter next to the printer.

The man had a dark complexion, with dark blue mud marks on his face and hands. His eyes were numb, and he just stared at Zhang Hao blankly, holding him tightly with both hands.

Faced with the supernatural power that the ghost bride bestowed on Zhang Hao, the ghost did not change at all.

Obviously, the horror of this thing is no less than the combination of Zhang Hao and the ghost bride.

When the bodies of both parties come into contact, what is being compared is the most essential thing between evil spirits: the degree of terror.

Time keeps passing in the stalemate between the two.

Even though the two sides did not take any action and Zhang Hao did not have anything to measure time, he could feel that the stalemate between the two sides had lasted for more than a day.

Finally, new changes emerged.

"Beep! Beep!"

While the two sides were in a stalemate, the printer nearby made the same sound of printing newspapers as before.

Soon, a new newspaper was printed.

At the same time, the evil ghost that had just grabbed Zhang Hao also withdrew his hand.

"Huh? What do you mean?"

Zhang Hao stared at the middle-aged evil spirit and thought for a moment, then he reached for the printer again.

But this time he was not trying to grab the printer, but the newspaper that had just been printed.

This time the ghost did not stop Zhang Hao, but let him grab the freshly printed newspaper.

"On September 10, 1919, a reporter from Changfeng Newspaper went to investigate the bus route and disappeared unexpectedly. It has been nearly a hundred years since then."

"On August 15, 2017, the reporter was said to have stayed at the Caesars Hotel, but has now disappeared again."

"Ok?"

Looking at the news in the newspaper, Zhang Hao was a little surprised.

Newspaper, newspaper office. And when I came to this place, it was the 19th. Does that mean that the reporter from the newspaper was the one who walked into the Caesar Hotel before I entered here?
"Could it be that the reporter from the newspaper is actually the newspaper ghost?"

Zhang Hao felt that this possibility was not small. The newspaper ghost had the ability to modify other people's cognition and memory, and was indeed suitable to be a reporter for a newspaper.

Moreover, the newspaper ghost always holds a newspaper in his hand. When combined with the newspapers from this newspaper office, it is hard for Zhang Hao not to be suspicious.

While Zhang Hao was thinking, the middle-aged evil ghost who had captured Zhang Hao before moved again.

He walked to the other side of the counter, took out a piece of unwritten newspaper, and took out a small piece of ink from the drawer under the counter.

At the same time, a sound was heard from the printer.

A new newspaper was printed again.

"On August 23, 2017, the Red and White Devils reached a win-win cooperation with Changfeng Newspaper."

"Cooperation Agreement 1: Changfeng Newspaper sends the Red and White Devils away from Caesar Hotel."

"Cooperation Agreement 2: The Red and White Devils need to find the missing reporter for Changfeng Newspaper and bring him back to Changfeng Newspaper." "Cooperation Agreement 3: After the Red and White Devils accept the agreement of Changfeng Newspaper, the newspaper needs to pay the corresponding remuneration."

"The Changfeng Newspaper Company offers a reward: one blank newspaper and one ghost ink."

"Cooperation Agreement 4: The Red and White Devils are required to complete this agreement within two months. If they breach the agreement, they will have to pay double compensation to Changfeng Newspaper."

At the same time, at the bottom of the newspaper, there is an official seal with the words "Changfeng Newspaper" printed on it.

At this time, the middle-aged evil ghost picked up the newspaper with the picture of Zhang Hao and the ghost bride, and handed it to Zhang Hao along with a blank newspaper and an ink block.

Looking at the two newspapers and the ink stick in the middle-aged ghost's hand, he was not in a hurry to take them.

Because in the corner of the newspaper where the treaty was written, there was another blank space.

Comparing with the place where the official seal of 'Changfeng Newspaper' was stamped, there should be another place for stamping.

"Does accepting these things mean that I have reached a cooperation agreement with this newspaper?"

Zhang Hao looked at Treaty 4.

He is required to find the newspaper ghost within two months and bring it back to Changfeng Newspaper Office.

In fact, he wasn't really worried about finding the newspaper ghost.

What he was worried about was how to bring the newspaper ghost to this place after finding it.

Although I have had contact with the Ghost News Agency this time, it doesn’t mean that I can find it next time.

There are so many spin-offs of Caesars that I can't be sure I'm in the same space every time I come.

"Unless this ghost has a way to find me, or let me find him."

Zhang Hao looked at the things that the ghost handed over.

The reason why I came here was because I came into contact with the newspaper.

Thinking of this, Zhang Hao stopped thinking about it and reached out to take the two newspapers and ink block from the middle-aged ghost.

As Zhang Hao took over these things, a new official seal appeared on the other side of the treaty paper - "Red and White Twin Devils"

"Sure enough, this thing is pretty much what I thought."

Zhang Hao looked at the middle-aged evil ghost. Although this thing did not behave abnormally, Zhang Hao always felt that he had some intelligence.

In fact, when the newspaper was making a deal with Zhang Hao, he had already made some guesses about the newspaper.

After all, in the original book, whenever there is a fierce ghost with the ability to trade, it is bound to be weird.

If you think about it again, even the newspaper ghost, which is a fierce ghost that can steal the memories of living people and make them work for it, is just a reporter for a newspaper.

It was hard for Zhang Hao not to think that there was wisdom in the newspaper.

But thinking of this, Zhang Hao didn't care too much.

Although my bride and I do not have the ability to fight against this newspaper now, it does not mean that we will not be able to do so in the future.

After getting the ghost painting, the bride still had a lot of things to complete.

If we wait until the future and find the red room, the bride should be able to control a small supernatural place like the newspaper office.

"Your treaty said to send me away, so how do I leave now?"

Zhang Hao glanced at the middle-aged evil ghost. The other party had been silent. He did not think about this matter anymore, but asked about the main purpose.

Leaving Caesar Hotel was the main reason why Zhang Hao signed this contract. He did not care much about other rewards.
