Even though Xu Tao was slightly displeased with Yuan Mu Ye, it was only for a moment.

Having been through so much, Xu Tao now trusted Yuan Mu Ye completely. When he saw him telling him not to speak carelessly.

Xu Tao quickly shut his mouth, not daring to say another word.

He carried Chief Chen on his back, following behind Yuan Mu Ye, looking at the desolate place before him, where Yin energy spread rampantly.

This area was basically a "fallen zone," a place where only ghouls could survive.

For a living person to enter here, to put it bluntly, was a dead end.

After walking for a while.

Xu Tao noticed that Yuan Mu Ye's direction seemed a little off, in the opposite direction from the ghost cave where Deputy Director Liu was located.

He was curious, wondering if Yuan Mu Ye was lost because he didn't have a map.

After some hesitation, he couldn't help but ask, "Director Yuan, are we going the wrong way?"

"What is it? Do you know the way?"

Yuan Mu Ye turned his head and glanced at him calmly.

Xu Tao shivered involuntarily, staring at Yuan Mu Ye, and after a moment, he said, "Director Yuan, the direction where Deputy Director Liu is, is not the direction you're going."

"Who said I was going to meet up with them? I didn't say that."

Yuan Mu Ye said, with a hint of mystery in his eyes.

"But..."

"There are no buts. If you don't want to carry someone, you can leave now."

Yuan Mu Ye was now increasingly certain that Deputy Director Liu had a problem. If he were to meet up with Deputy Director Liu now, he didn't know what unexpected situation they might encounter.

"I'll carry him, I'll carry him. Director Yuan, please don't be angry. I, Xu Tao, have decided to follow you, and I won't go against your arrangements."

"It's good that you understand."

Yuan Mu Ye didn't say any more nonsense and strode forward.

He didn't know how long they walked, but Yuan Mu Ye was always on guard, afraid that ghouls would appear around them.

But at this moment. A voice suddenly rang out from Xu Tao's pager, "If you hear this, please respond..."

When Xu Tao heard this voice, his eyes immediately lit up, because the voice belonged to none other than Deputy Director Liu.

The voice was filled with some faint static.

Xu Tao was just about to answer when he was stopped by Yuan Mu Ye.

Yuan Mu Ye couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions. Now that he could hear Deputy Director Liu's voice, there was a possibility that he was nearby.

If this bastard was really nearby, then it meant that this bastard was really planning to attack Yuan Mu Ye and had been following them all along.

"Don't answer."

Just as Xu Tao was about to answer, Yuan Mu Ye quickly cut off his thoughts.

Xu Tao subconsciously asked, "Why? Director Yuan, why aren't we meeting up with Deputy Director Liu? What if something happens to them, or they encounter some danger?"

As he spoke, he frowned deeply.

He was clearly worried.

"I told you to follow me, stop talking nonsense. If you say another word, get lost."

"Negative emotion value from Xu Tao +299..."

Xu Tao had already restrained his emotions. Facing Yuan Mu Ye's aggressive words, he could only swallow his anger and dare not say another word.

"Yes, Director Yuan."

After a while, he still spoke.

The three continued to move forward.

However, during the process of walking, some noisy sounds always came from Xu Tao's pager, all of which were Deputy Director Liu's voice.

Moreover, the voice gradually became a little hurried, giving the feeling that he had encountered some danger and couldn't deal with it right now.

"Director Yuan..."

Hearing Xu Tao's voice, Yuan Mu Ye knew what he was going to say, and immediately, without any nonsense, said, "Shut up."

Xu Tao felt unspeakable suffering in his heart.

In fact, Yuan Mu Ye also heard what Deputy Director Liu said, which was nothing more than asking for help, saying that he had encountered danger and hoped that Yuan Mu Ye would tell him his location.

Just as Xu Tao was extremely conflicted and didn't know how to deal with it.

The pager hanging on his chest was snatched away by Yuan Mu Ye.

Yuan Mu Ye didn't delay and shouted into the pager, "Deputy Director Xu, it's me."

As soon as these words landed, the other party's voice was obviously a little excited, as if he had found a hope for survival, and quickly shouted, "Director Yuan, where are you now? We have encountered danger here and need support."

"Support? We can't provide support here, we have also encountered danger."

Yuan Mu Ye asked straightforwardly.

"Director Yuan, what kind of danger have you encountered? Tell us about the situation. If you can escape, come to our side first."

Deputy Director Liu's tone was like giving Yuan Mu Ye an order.

Unfortunately, Yuan Mu Ye didn't intend to accept this order. On the contrary, he was quite calm. At this moment, he slowly said, "Director Liu, we can say anything frankly. Now that we have arrived in this territory, you can say whatever you want, there's no need to hide anything."

"What do you mean?"

Deputy Director Liu's voice came, with confusion and a hint of anger.

"I don't mean anything. To be honest with you, Deputy Director Liu, I have long suspected that you have a problem. The ghoul just confessed that you set a trap here, just waiting for us to come over, luring us to take the bait, right?"

Yuan Mu Ye didn't intend to say any nonsense to him and went straight to the point.

Deputy Director Liu didn't speak and suddenly fell silent.

As for Xu Tao, a wonderful expression appeared on his face, and his eyes were filled with disbelief, obviously not believing what Yuan Mu Ye said.

Or rather, he was completely shocked by what Yuan Mu Ye said.

The current Yuan Mu Ye seemed to be directly confronting Deputy Director Liu, tearing at him.

He was obviously completely angry.

Xu Tao suddenly felt a little lost, feeling a huge pressure, but in this situation, he didn't dare to speak at all.

He could only remain silent.

Yuan Mu Ye also suppressed his voice and didn't say anything. The two sides suddenly seemed to have entered a confrontation.

Time passed by, second by second. He didn't know how long had passed.

Finally, Deputy Director Liu's voice came from the other side. He said lightly, "Director Yuan, what time is it? Stop joking with me."

"Negative emotion value from Deputy Director Liu +999..."

Yuan Mu Ye received this reminder of negative emotion value, and he couldn't help but feel a burst of emotions in his heart.

It seemed that his guess was correct.

In fact, some of these ghouls were very clever and had already occupied human bodies, disguising themselves as humans.

What was unexpected was that some ghouls were lurking so deeply, even in the Supernatural Investigation Bureau.

Now it seemed that Deputy Director Liu was undoubtedly a lurking ghoul.
