Chapter 240 Escaping the Mental Hospital

Without saying a word, Lyon pointed the gun at the ceiling and pulled the trigger.

Bah!

The bullets hit the ceiling of the corridor, sending powder flying everywhere.

Brick chips and fragments fell in a flurry.

Li Jian had anticipated this and jumped out of the dust cloud first, but Ah Qun and Leon got soaked.

Lyon's hat was covered in dust, and Ah Qun was also covered in dust.

Lyon pointed his gun at Ah Qun and asked, "Aren't you scared?"

Ah Qun stared at the dark muzzle of the gun, his heart skipped a beat, and the words caught in his throat: "Ah! Ah! Ah!"

Ah-Qun lost her voice out of fear.

Leon, however, had already put the pistol back into his jacket pocket and said, "That's right. You're not afraid because you don't believe the gun is real. Let me tell you, anything can happen in this world. Why? Because you lack imagination."

Einstein said, "Imagination is more important than any knowledge. It can make the impossible possible. Are you scared yet?"

Leon spoke so fast that Ah Qun couldn't keep up with his train of thought for a moment.

However, Li Jian felt that what Lyon said made a lot of sense.

He couldn't help but clap his hands and exclaim, "Well said! Brilliantly said! Absolutely brilliant!"

For some reason, although Lyon's speech was incoherent and seemingly illogical, Li Jian felt that what he said made a lot of sense.

All the theories, theorems, and even many moral principles and laws in this world are merely standards set by humankind itself.

It is a highly subjective phenomenon.

But if these theories and theorems were not established by humankind, would this world not exist?

Even without Einstein's theory of relativity, the expansion and contraction of the universe would still continue.

Human beings are merely insignificant beings in the vast universe.

However, human imagination is extremely valuable; countless inventions and creations initially existed in human imagination.

It can be said that everything in modern society is inseparable from human imagination.

If science and technology are the primary productive force, then imagination is the source of all productive forces.

Without imagination, the world is stagnant.

Lyon extended his hand again to shake hands with Li Jian and said, "Thank you!"

"You're welcome," Li Jian replied just as readily.

Leon suddenly picked up a potted plant from the ground and placed it in Li Jian's hand: "Let me introduce you, this is my good friend Lili."

"Hello, Lisa." Li Jian had long admired this flower.

Leon continued, "I saw flying saucers when I was very young, the legendary UFOs; I saw the Loch Ness Monster when I was six years old; plus, I rode roller coasters every morning and pirate ships every afternoon since I was a child, and after riding the pirate ships, I would ride the roller coasters again."

So I often tell young people today, don't think about getting rich overnight.

My current achievements are all the result of countless trials and tribulations. What else could possibly frighten me?

Ah-Qun's jaw almost dropped to the ground: "Then is our building really haunted?"

Lyon nodded and said, "Yes, I already knew. Lily told me."

Ah Qun looked at Lyon, then at the potted plant in Li Jian's hand: "You're saying it was this that told you? That's incredible."

Lyon said, "Something even more amazing is about to happen in your building, and I need to get there and deal with it."

Before they knew it, the three of them had returned along the same route they had come from.

There stood a man at the end of the corridor, the same menacing security guard that Li Jian and his companion had encountered when they first entered.

The security guard's eyes were wide open, staring intently at Li Jian and his two companions.

After Li Jian and his two companions entered, they heard a soft snoring sound, which turned out to be coming from the security guard.

Lyon said, "He's asleep, don't wake him."

Li Jian knew from watching the Romance of the Three Kingdoms that Zhang Fei slept with his eyes open, but he never expected to see such a strange sight in real life.

Li Jian held Ah Qun's little hand, and the three of them quickly left Chongguang Mental Hospital.

"Brother, what do you do?"

Even the reclusive master Lyon couldn't help but ask a question when he saw Li Jian's white BMW.

Li Jian said, "My job is to clean up the garbage in the community and sort it."

Lyon was surprised: "I didn't know collecting garbage could be so profitable. If you have the chance, please teach me how to do it."

A-Qun asked, "If you're so capable, what do you need money for?"

Leon said, "Of course, it's about giving back to society. I lost both my parents when I was young and was raised by a social welfare institution. Although they didn't give me a wealthy life, they did help me grow into an adult."

The welfare home is currently short of funds, and I'm going to donate money to them!

"Wow, you're amazing!" Ah Qun's little eyes couldn't help but sparkle.

Lyon crossed his arms and said, "As the saying goes, if I don't go to hell, who will? The greatest heroes are those who serve their country and its people."

Li Jian didn't have time to listen to their idle chatter and sped away from the mental hospital.

At the entrance of Victory Building.

Li Jian took out his phone and dialed Xu Yangshen's number, but the caller ID showed that the other party was out of service.

"Damn it, it let us down at the crucial moment!"

Li Jian dialed several times in a row, but couldn't get through, so he simply gave up.

It was already getting dark, and the lights inside the building were on.

Strangely enough, the Victory Building is bustling during the day, but becomes extremely deserted as soon as it gets dark, and you can't even see a dog in the neighborhood.

Li Jian asked, "Lyon, when do we go in?"

Li Jian was not so confident in the face of supernatural neutrinos.

His fists are powerful, but not powerful enough to fight ghosts.

Lyon did some quick calculations and said, "Right now, there's only one neutrino in the building, the old lady. We just need to perform a ritual to help her pass on to the afterlife, and everything will be fine."

"The old lady lives on the ninth floor, I'll take you there!"

Ah-Qun took the lead and was the first to enter the Victory Building.

"Strange, why don't I see those security guards today?"

Li Jian and his two companions walked through the lobby, but they didn't find any patrolling security guards, or even the guards on duty.

Ah Qun said angrily, "We pay so much in property management fees, yet we can't even see the security guards. I'm definitely going to file a complaint against them!"

Leon said, "Don't talk, let's hurry up to the ninth floor."

The three entered the elevator and pressed the button for the 9th floor.

The elevator rises slowly.

A few seconds later, the elevator doors on the 9th floor opened, and three people filed out.

Ah Qun led the two people to Xiao Long's house and found the gate tightly closed, and even the outer security gate was shut shut, so it didn't look like anyone was there.

Ah-Qun knocked on the door, but only the sound of knocking echoed in the narrow corridor.

The silence was deafening; it was incredibly eerie.

Li Jian patted A-Qun on the shoulder: "Move aside."

Ah Qun turned around and looked at him, surprised, "What are you going to do?"

Li Jian didn't say anything, but raised his leg and kicked.
