Chapter 115: Ironclad Evidence

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

That female ghost had never seen such a scene. However, when she saw the holy light flash and be as brilliant as the sun, it was almost about to burn her ghost body to ashes. Heaven had pity on her. Ever since she awakened, the people she bullied and tortured were only weak and pitiful mortals. Why did such a strange guy appear today?!

She could not help but scream and transform into a black fog, trying to escape.

However, it was too late!

Kang De slashed down!

The sword slashed at the center of the black fog, causing a critical strike. However, it was just fancy-looking. The silver of battle aura, the white of the holy light, and the red of the flames were mixed in the deep black.

The female ghost cried out miserably and revealed her true form. She staggered back, her face filled with fear and hatred.

Kang De raised his sword and stabbed again.

This was just like exploring a dungeon. The team members slashed at the Boss side by side. Physical damage, combat aura damage, magic damage, fire damage, and holy light damage rose.

The female ghost was burned by the holy light, and the intense light annihilated the black fog around her. She was already heavily injured, and her non-physical illusory body was collapsing layer by layer from the inside out.

The holy light was purifying everything about her.

Purifying her hatred was also purifying her evil. Those things that should not exist in the human world after turning into ghosts were bloodthirsty, vicious, and ruthless.

The black pupils gradually faded, and a light appeared on her pale face as if she was splitting. The wailing female ghost was struggling. On the one hand, she was human when she was alive. She was ordinary, but she was considered kind. She had encountered a fate she should not have endured. On the other hand, she was a ghost after death. Resentment blinded her eyes, causing her to become crazy, hysterical, and hate all living beings indiscriminately.

Perhaps knowing her fate, although the female ghost could not help but wail and struggle, her eyes looked at Kang De and a huge hatred appeared on her face.

“Don’t hate me.”

Kang De said indifferently, “When I was sleeping, I was woken up by the cold. I sensed an extremely evil spirit appearing in the living room and showing me great hostility and malice. According to my principles, once I discover this situation, I’ll immediately exercise my right to defend myself until the other party dies.”

“Moreover, this is the first time I’ve encountered an enemy like you. I didn’t know you were actually so weak. I’m sorry.”

There was no mockery in his tone because he was telling the truth.

That was indeed the case.

When he saw the female ghost’s current appearance, he could roughly guess that the other party might have a huge obsession and resentment. Perhaps she had encountered an extremely unfair and tragic injustice when she was alive.

If he encountered it, he was actually willing to interfere.

However, who asked the other party to do this? If she had to blame anyone, it was this female ghost who was ruthless and left no room for negotiation. Therefore, she did not give herself any chance to speak.

The female ghost seemed to understand Kang De’s words and howled even more miserably and angrily. However, as the holy light further purified and dissipated, her ghost side gradually dissipated.

The calmer, weaker, and more rational side of a human was revealed.

She looked at Kang De with a pleading expression.

Kang De sighed. “What’s your name? Who killed you? Do you have evidence?”

The female ghost was first stunned, then she nodded in surprise. Then, she revealed a flustered expression, because she could not speak. Moreover, she did not have much time left.

Kang De said, “Write it down. Just write it down.”

The female ghost immediately raised her hand. Her body had almost been completely purified by the holy light. Every move she made was covered in a halo. Kang De looked at the trajectory of the light.

Li Jing.

Xie Guangjun.

Then, she hesitated.

She looked at Kang De and revealed an apologetic and terrified expression.

“Is the evidence already gone…”

Kang De nodded. “It’s fine. The heavens are watching. Even if the physical evidence is worn down, the human heart can’t deceive this world. As long as he is around, there’s a chance to get to the bottom of this matter. There’s justice. I’ll take on this matter.”

Li Jing looked like she was about to cry.

Kang De nodded calmly. “Then, rest in peace.”

Holy light swept.

The female ghost’s expression had already become extremely calm. She looked at Kang De and revealed a calm and grateful smile. If not for the countless resentment in her heart, who would be willing to become an ugly and crazy ghost?

Then, she dissipated in this dense light.

A moment later, Kang De turned on the light.

All traces disappeared, and even the faint coldness and rotten aura in the room completely disappeared. He sheathed his sword and heaved a long sigh of relief.

Then, he suddenly returned to his senses.

“…F*ck! It’s really a f*cking ghost.”

Moreover, it was so weak.

He planned to make do in this bedroom for the night and transmigrate to the white fog world to get a gun tomorrow.

Unexpectedly, after midnight, a sudden chill woke him up. He felt an extremely cold and evil creature appear in the living room. Out of the extremely vigilant habit he had developed after staying in the other world for more than a year, he immediately activated his ability to return to the white fog world and shuttled to his room in the district. He took the equipment he had borrowed from the Goode family’s treasure room and returned fully armed.

Then, there was nothing.

“Moreover, it seems to be a female ghost…”

Kang De threw the helmet aside and touched his chin as he muttered, “I keep feeling like I’ve missed a lot…”

He could avenge her, and she would thank him, follow him, and marry him.

Of course, it was a joke.

He would not have any intention of showing mercy.

Since he sensed an extremely evil aura and sensed the other party’s hostility and malice towards him, the only principle of battle was—to kill!

However, this did not conflict with his promise.

Self-defense was one thing, but promising to uphold justice for the other party was another.

Ghosts were different from humans.

He was only seeking justice for a pitiful woman who had been wronged.

Since he had the strength, why not do it?

“Xie Guangjun…”

Kang De walked into the bedroom and sat by the bed. He picked up his phone and opened the search site.

To be honest, this scene was relatively funny.

This was because he was still wearing the mighty Templar armor.

He searched.

Of course, there was a lot of useless information.

There were more than a billion people in China. There must be many people with this name. How could he find out about such messy information…

Ask Old Wang for help?

—No, no.

Not to mention that Old Wang was already a little suspicious, even if he confessed in the end, he would definitely not let Old Wang help investigate this matter. After all, to make that female ghost so resentful, she must have extremely cruel methods. That Xie Guangjun either had an extremely powerful social background or was an extremely ferocious murderer.

He did not want Old Wang to be involved in such a matter.

“There’s always a way.” Kang De muttered to himself, “Moreover, I’m not in a hurry.”

She had already become a ghost. What was the hurry?

If he could not find it, for the time being, it was fine to let him live a carefree life.

—However, interest had to be calculated.

At dawn.

Kang De jumped up early in the morning and took a taxi back to his house. He emptied two oversized travel boxes and ran back to the haunted house. He packed the armor and carried it back obediently.

Although it was fine to leave it there, he still felt uneasy.

—An unease from that Xie Guangjun.

He carried the two travel boxes home, then took out his phone and made a call to Intermediary Xu.

In an instant, the other party’s voice sounded enthusiastically, “Brother Kang!”

Kang De exchanged a few pleasantries with him and said, “Intermediary Xu, I want to ask you a question.”

“Go ahead.”

“Other than you and me, how many owners did the house have? Was there only one?”

On the other side, Mr. Xu seemed to be relieved. As long as Kang De did not ask him to cancel the deal, everything was fine. “It should be more than that, but this family has bought this house for a long time. It’s only recently that they started to cause trouble… You know, so you can’t even find trouble with the previous owner.”

Kang De’s expression changed slightly.

He said calmly, “Then do you know who the previous owner was? Or can you find out?”

Intermediary Xu said in a difficult manner, “Aiyo, this is a little troublesome because that transaction did not come from our company. Moreover, even if we know, we can’t reveal it…”

He said apologetically, “This concerns the privacy of the client after all…”

Kang De was not disappointed. The experience in the other world filled him with patience.

He said, “It’s fine, I understand. Also, there’s one more thing.”

“Please speak.”

“If anyone calls you during this period of time to ask about that house and find out who bought it…” Kang De said indifferently, “You can tell them, but there’s one thing. Don’t tell them that Xiaoman paid for me, okay?”

Mr. Xu was stunned for a moment before saying in a strange tone, “I understand, I understand.”

—Hey, what do you understand?

However, Kang De could not be bothered to argue with him. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he was about to hang up.

At this moment, Mr. Xu said carefully, “Brother Kang, is that room… comfortable?”

Kang De said indifferently, “I’m not staying there.”

Mr. Xu choked. “Then why…”

Kang De was playful for a moment and said, “I bought it as an investment. For example, I can spend money to hire fake reviewers to stir up the news online. I can find a few online writers and marketing accounts to add fuel to the fire and turn that place into a real haunted house or something. Then, I can turn it into a homestay or something and specially trick some bored streamers or TikTokers to film a video. If I do it well, the value of this house will double in a year!”

“…”

On the other end of the phone, Mr. Xu was silent for a long time.

“Goodbye.”

Kang De hung up.

He was in a good mood.

He dragged the two travel boxes to the bedroom and opened the wardrobe, wanting to stuff these two large suspicious boxes in first. Then, he frowned.

Yesterday, a batch of them had arrived, so he tried the fantasy enchantment that he had not tried for a long time.

Although he still obtained a pile of half-finished products, the outcome this time was better, and it further confirmed his guess.

The success rate of the fantasy enchantment, or rather, the success progress, was directly related to the “restoration” and materials of the enchantment target. For example, he tried the Infinity Gauntlet again. Previously, he had only found a stupid plastic glove that would only emit light. Then, he took a metal one this time. It was an alloy gauntlet with a rubber lining. It was clearly much thicker.

Although the final outcome was still a failure, the enchantment progress was clearly a few large steps ahead of the plastic glove. In other words, Kang De’s guess had been verified.

“In the future, when I have money, I can directly fork out money to customize it and let those companies design it from the most realistic and original angle. It doesn’t matter how much money there is. What’s important is the originality!”

Kang De touched his chin and snorted, “In that case, not to mention anything else, the title of an ultimate tycoon is certain—although this true fan might be more knowledgeable.”

He tidied up the fragments at the bottom of the cabinet and put the box back. Then, he placed these fragments, broken blades, and so on on on the box. He had to take them away the next time he transmigrated.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Kang De frowned and sped up his packing. However, immediately after, his phone rang. He simply picked up all those things and stuffed them into the cabinet, letting them touch around inside. Then, he kicked the sliding cabinet door and ran to the living room. “I’m here!”

When he opened the door, it was Old Wang.

Old Wang placed his hands behind his back and stared at him. Seeing that he was unharmed, he heaved a sigh of relief.

Then, his gaze was a little unfriendly and conflicted.

Seeing her like this, Kang De felt a little guilty.

He had indeed lived off a woman yesterday.

Although he was unwilling to admit it, and he had also said that he would provide some gold, that was indeed the truth.

After all, he felt a little guilty.

Old Wang was also very conflicted.

She had tossed and turned last night and thought about it for the entire night. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that the Main God Space was a little ridiculous.

In the end, that was only a novel.

The author spouted nonsense.

How could it really appear in reality?

Once this thought appeared, other thoughts appeared in her mind to support this doubt.

After all, her previous deduction was actually not that strict.

Perhaps it was just simple transmigration.

The reason why he felt as if a lifetime had passed was probably because of the time flow between the two worlds. Kang De might have been there for a long time… Perhaps that was the case.

She convinced herself.

This was because she did not want Kang De to go to a dangerous place like the Main God Space from the bottom of her heart.

However… what if?

It was not that she did not want to ask, but she was afraid that he would be killed.

This made her feel extremely conflicted.

The girl stepped into the room and walked toward Kang De’s bedroom.

Kang De was shocked. “Hey…”

Xiaoman turned around and said, “I’m playing with your computer. What’s wrong?”

Because the bed in the bedroom was very clean, it was obvious at a glance that he had not slept there last night. Xiaoman only needed to take a look to guess where Kang De had gone last night.

However… it did not matter.

If Xiaoman took the initiative to ask, Kang De would not be conflicted anymore.

He could just tell the truth.

He said, “Play—what do you want to drink?”

Xiaoman said casually, “Black tea.”

It was really casual.

This was because, at this moment, the two of them were not in the mood to joke.

Kang De went to the kitchen to boil water and make tea. Xiaoman sat down in a chair.

The bed was neat and reasonable. Kang De must have gone to that haunted house last night.

There were no ghosts anymore…

The girl casually glanced around and discovered that the wardrobe was not locked, as if it was stuck.

She got up and went over to take a look. She realized that it was a golden object, like a finger. She squatted down and took it out—no, this was part of a glove.

Moreover, looking at this color and pattern…

As a veteran Marvel fan, Old Wang naturally had a deep impression of this thing that countless people hated so much that they could not sleep at night. “This is… the Infinity Gauntlet?”

“Why did it shatter?”

She wanted to pull open the cabinet door and find the other parts.

However, in the next moment, the girl froze on the spot.

—Wait.

This material was a little wrong.

It was heavy in her hand.

Moreover, the feeling and material… were very wrong.

It was neither metal nor plastic.

That color, that pattern, that magical and mysterious beauty even surpassed the feeling presented in the movie.

No manufacturer could make such exquisite items.

Unless this was… real.

Wang Xiaoman instantly felt a chill run down her spine.

Just as she was feeling suspicious, ironclad evidence struck again.

Kang De had killed Thanos!
