"Come out. I want to talk."

It was a full minute before the ghost decided to walk through the wall and came to stand in the middle of the room, right over her death spot. 

She didn't say anything for the longest of whiles and Xiajun had started to worry that Zhaohui would return, so he decided to initiate conversation.

"Your name is," Xiajun remembered from the file he had read, "Miss Zeng Suyin?"

The ghost nodded and stared wide-eyed at Xiajun. "Y-you can see me?"

Her voice was a hoarse whisper, one that suited the dead.
Xiajun tried to hide the shiver that went down his spine.

"I can. In fact, I may be the only one to do so. My confrere will be back any moment now, so we must get this done with. There are some questions I'd like to ask you," Xiajun said as he pulled a pad and a pen out of his pant pocket. Miss Suyin remained silent.

"First of all," he said as he glanced over the ghost of the woman once, "who killed you?"

GHOST DETECTIVE: Li Xiajun

Xiajun clasped and unclasped his fingers, unable to get the hang of what Miss Rong was revealing to him only now.

"You believe the city cut off your supply and deliberately hired someone to poison the village because you weren't giving up your land?" he asked, an incredulous expression on his face. "And this won't stop till you give in to their demands?"

Miss Rong pursed her lips. "The village elders have simply ceased to give me any consent, and without their word, I am but rendered helpless."

Xiajun frowned. "And you're telling me all negotiations have failed?"

Xiajun folded his arms and sat back in his chair, wondering how he was supposed to deal with this. "Look, if you already had your suspicions, you should've at least told me-"

The City?
