Chapter 501: Rumors of a Haunted Studio
In Jiang Ning's studio, a mysterious atmosphere quietly spread.
Rumors of the haunting began as scattered whispers, but over time they coalesced into disturbing rumors.
Some employees claimed that they were working overtime alone in the company in the dead of night.
Suddenly, they glimpsed a fast-moving shadow in the mirror at the end of the corridor.
This shadow is not the outline of an ordinary human being. It appears distorted and blurry under the dim light, as if it is some mysterious existence that cannot be described in words.
Not only that, many people often hear some inexplicable footsteps, whispers or strange sounds made by objects moving in this quiet working environment.
These sounds often appear suddenly without warning, but disappear without a trace in an instant, making it impossible to trace their exact source.
What's worse, some employees reported that their computers and other electronic devices would be turned on or off without authorization when no one was operating them.
Occasionally, images or text of unknown origin would flash across the screen, unrelated to the project at hand.
In addition, some more sensitive employees noticed that the temperature in certain areas of the studio would drop suddenly and inexplicably.
Even in the warm season with pleasant climate, they can feel the biting cold.
This strange phenomenon is creepy and chilling.
This feeling was accompanied by an indescribable sense of oppression, as if something was approaching.
Some people find that their personal belongings, such as notebooks, pens, or small decorations, will inadvertently change locations, sometimes even appearing in a completely different place.
The movement of these objects seemed to be random and yet unsettling.
A few employees reported that after working overtime in the studio, they would have strange dreams at night, with blurry figures and unclear words in their dreams.
After waking up, these dreams still haunt them, leaving them confused and frightened.
As these rumors continued to spread, the atmosphere in the studio became increasingly tense.
Employees are distracted at work, their efficiency is reduced, and some even choose to leave early or apply for transfer out of fear.
Jiang Ning realized that if the truth was not found out as soon as possible, these groundless fears would have a serious impact on the operation of the studio.
Ever since that rumor started circulating, the atmosphere in the studio has become extremely tense.
The staff members were whispering, with unconscious fear in their eyes.
Even Li Mengqi, who is usually brave, once heard a strange noise late one night when she was working overtime alone. She fled the studio in panic and never dared to stay there alone again.
Jiang Ning was skeptical about this matter and she thought there must be something fishy going on.
As the owner of the studio, she could not allow such unclear rumors to affect the morale of the team and the normal progress of work.
Therefore, she decided to intervene personally and use her wisdom and resources to completely uncover the mystery.
One night, Jiang Ning arranged a special operation.
She gathered several trusted team members, including Li Mengqi, and prepared to conduct an all-night monitoring in the studio.
They installed hidden cameras, prepared recording equipment, and even invited a senior psychologist to provide professional advice when necessary.
As night fell, the lights in the studio dimmed, with only a few emergency lights emitting a faint glow.
Jiang Ning and his team members were scattered in different corners, quietly waiting for any abnormal phenomena that might occur.
Time passed by minute by minute, and everything seemed peaceful except for the occasional sound of wind and the honking of vehicles in the distance.
Just when everyone began to doubt whether the so-called "ghosts" really existed, unusual movements appeared on the surveillance screen.
In the dim light, a blurry figure flashed by at the end of the corridor, followed by a faint sound of footsteps.
Jiang Ning's sensitive nerves tensed up instantly, and she immediately gestured to others, indicating that everyone should maintain absolute silence.
Then, she tiptoed and cautiously moved slowly towards the direction where the sound came from.
As the distance gradually shortened, the figure became clearer and clearer.
Jiang Ning was surprised to find that what he saw before him was not a scary ghost, but a middle-aged man in a security uniform.
At this moment, he was holding a small and exquisite player, which was playing a pre-recorded strange sound.
The truth is revealed!
It turned out that all this was a prank carefully planned by the security guard for the sake of excitement.
Jiang Ning's anger was instantly ignited, and she questioned the security guard angrily:
"Why would you do such a horrible thing?"
Faced with Jiang Ning's questioning, the security guard panicked and tried to explain incoherently.
He stammered that his daily work was really boring, so he had a sudden idea to add a little fun to his dull life through this prank.
However, he never expected that his momentary playfulness would cause such a huge panic.
In the end, the security guard had to admit that it was out of boredom and strong curiosity that made him do such a ridiculous thing.
He had never expected that things would develop to such a serious extent, and his heart was filled with regret and self-blame.
Jiang Ning sternly warned him and decided to fire him as a warning.
After resolving the "haunting" incident, the studio returned to its former tranquility.
However, Jiang Ning keenly noticed that Li Mengqi's expression was a little strange, as if there was still a trace of doubt in her heart.
So she asked softly:
"Meng Qi, are you hiding something from me?"
After Jiang Ning's repeated questioning, Li Mengqi finally plucked up the courage to tell the secret that had been bothering her.
