On Sunday morning, Luke met the landlord who got up early to collect rent in the corridor.
"Little Luke, did you hear any weird noises last night?"
"Ah? I went to bed early yesterday, what exactly is it?"
"I don't know…Many people in the community say that they encounter strange things like the lights in the corridor can't be turned on."
"Our elevators have only one basement floor, but several tenants have reported seeing a button for the 2nd basement floor."
"It's okay Sister Liu, it may be that the light bulb is broken, I will check it later." Luke said with a smile.
Sister Liu relaxed and spoke softly, "I made fish head soup today. Come over and taste it."
Luke nodded, walked to the entrance of the corridor. Halfway through, his face was strange.
"Fish head soup…Isn't it Magikarp?!"
"The 6-floor old-fashioned buildings have elevators with short-circuited wires, and this is quite common."
Luke came to the first floor, checked the circuit breaker, and changed a light bulb.
"Weird, the light bulb is still working fine."
Luke scratched his head, and walked into the elevator.
"The air was humid in the dim elevator as Luke, feeling uneasy in the sublet space, noticed a mottled button labeled 'B2' below 'B1'. But when he rubbed his eyes, only the 'B1' button remained in front of him.
"Did I just see a ghost in broad daylight?" Luke swallowed nervously."
"System, what should I do in this case?"
[Recommended Ability: Holy Light Lv1 - requires 2000 BP points, Disciplinary Lv1 - requires 3000 BP points, Great Prestige of The Heavenly Dragon Lv1 - requires 5000 BP points]
"You have both Disciplinary and the Great Prestige of The Heavenly Dragon!?"
"Forget it, it's not the time to complain about this— —Do you have some Ability that I can afford? "
[Recommended Ability: Spirit Vision Lv1 requires BP points: 500]
[Whether to spend 500BP points to unlock Ability "Spirit Vision lv1"]
" Hurry up! Hurry up! "
[Remaining BP points: 260]
[Spirit Vision Lv1: Enhance vision, granting a small chance of using Foresight in Spirit Physique creatures. (Your vision differs from that of ordinary people, but be cautious; having a too high Spirit Vision may not always be beneficial...)]
Luke looks around all around carefully, and a drop of cold sweat falls from his forehead.
"What… nothing? "
In the empty elevator, the cold wind passed through the hall, with a musty smell, and a dim yellow incandescent lamp "creaked".
An old man in security uniforms yawned outside the elevator.
"Young man, you have been standing inside for a long time…Isn't it just urinating and defecating everywhere!" "
Luke left the elevator with a weird expression.
"Master, there are no urban ghost legends around here, right?"
"Yes, my granddaughter told me," the old man replied. "She said there's a woman named Ripples who is actually a Pokémon called Mawile."
"And there's an old lady with a cat face, guess what? It's Zoroark!"
"Uncle, enough!" Luke said with a strange expression. "Your granddaughter knows quite a lot!"
"That's right, my granddaughter is an elite trainer!" the uncle exclaimed triumphantly.
"I know you brat, the tenant on the sixth floor, and I haven't seen you out for half a month. "
"Look at you at such a young age, not being a Trainer, yet making contributions and being a small streamer, it's quite impressive!"
"Thanks for your kind words," Luke said humbly, taking a step back.
—
Walking on the way to the Pokémon store, Luke recalled the scene just now.
"It shouldn't be a supernatural event. It's probably just Ghost Type Pokémon, that's all... It makes sense," Luke reasoned.
Luke is a staunch materialist, believing in only tangible and scientifically proven phenomena.
Indeed, as the saying goes, Machamp struggles when facing Ghost Type Pokémon due to the type disadvantage.
"At that time, let Lady Boss find a few elite Trainers to remove the ghost, it should be no problem. "
After taking a deep breath to calm down, Luke opens E-Food App to search for nearby businesses.
"For lunch, there's a Kaiseki cuisine here... Slowpoke tail sashimi for 3888 Yuan? Excuse me!"
"Let's buy some Poké Balls first. "Luke muttered," there are several breeding houses nearby, you can go and take a look later. "
In the system store, a 200BP red and white ball is a bit expensive.
Compared with this, in reality, a Poké Ball of 500 yuan is too cost-effective.
When I came to the Pokémon store, Luke spent 2500 yuan to buy five Poké Balls, and his balance was 17000 yuan.
But in the Breeding House, Luke did not find his favorite Starter Pokémon.
"Eevee and Growlithe are both highly popular Pokémon," the clerk regretfully explained, "even if you pre-order, you'll have to wait six months in advance."
"It's okay, I was just asking casually," Luke replied with understanding.
Similar to precious pets in previous lives, Eevee is priced at 30k and Growlithe is priced close to 50k.
Luke is a bit shy in his pocket.
Pokémon eggs, such as Weedle and Wurmple, are very affordable. You can get one for around two to three hundred Yuan, and their Aptitude is rather ordinary.
Bird Pokémon, Pidgey, Taillow's Pokémon eggs are also on sale, about 2000.
But Luke couldn't help wondering if it was better to go into the wild and catch one of these Pokémon himself instead of buying a low-quality one from the street.
"If you decide to catch Pokémon yourself, please be cautious and prioritize your safety," the clerk said with a blush of embarrassment. "In recent years, there have been several news reports of accidental injuries during Pokémon catching."
Luke's Eevee plan hit a dead end leaving him with no other option but to return to his residence.
As the sun set behind the western hills, a group of spearow flew across the sky, emitting hoarse growls.
"Hey–! "
Luke played with the pocket-sized Poké Ball in his hand, and held the enlarged Poké Ball in his palm with a clatter, having a great time.
, A drop of cold sweat swept across Luke's forehead.
"It broke. "
The vision in front of my eyes suddenly became blurred, and the painting style changed dramatically, as if someone had turned the world upside down and gave it a new color.
If I were to describe it, it would be like JoJo's Bizarre discoloration—everything shifting and changing in a surreal and peculiar way.
The row of elevator buttons is covered with creepy green bloody handprints.
The incandescent lamp above his head shook wildly, emitting a strange "ga" sound, and with a sudden "zhi," the wick flickered violently, finally going out with a "zi."
In utter silence, a foul and musty smell filled the air, and a cold and damp breeze, resembling a scarlet, long Lick, brushed against Luke's neck.
Luke shivered all over in fear and discomfort.
After descending to the underground 2-Layer, the automatically closed elevator door slowly opens.
["Spirit Vision lv1" — —Great Accomplishment!]
A fluorescent green hue appeared before Luke's eyes, resembling an "eagle eye."
Now, Luke has calmed down and expressionlessly lifts his head.
He meets a pair of bulging eyes with big white pupils, a grin that extends to the base of the ears, and a scarlet long tongue.
Gastly approaches quickly, locking eyes with Luke, and they stare at each other for one minute.
"Ka-cha—"
A sudden burst of white light filled the air.
Luke lowered his head, his hands trembling as he sent a message to the fan group in the live broadcast room.

"What should I do if I encounter a ghost at night? I'm waiting online, feeling very anxious!"
