Reborn ghost seeing lady is pampered by her ex husband - Chapter 135

Chapter 135: Ghost catchers on the move.

To fly to the north, they used the Mayfair private plane not David’s like he originally wanted. Phoebe had been in a private plane before, David’s and grandma Saxon’s. She used to watch her step and act so timid, afraid to scratch anything.

Old habits died hard and that’s why she was also careful on this private plane. Phoebe knew that the Mayfairs were wealthy but it was yet to sink in that this all belonged to her too now and she could enjoy it freely.

David sat by himself at the back in a single chair while as Phoebe sat with her father and brother on a long sofa. She was sleeping with her head resting on Andre’s shoulders. Not even once for a second did she open her eyes until they landed.

The flight took about fifty five minutes and when they stepped off, black cars were waiting for them with extra bodyguards all arranged by Edward.

Phoebe commandeered the car keys from one of the drivers and started the car while yelling, “Let’s go, let’s go.” She was in such a hurry because Amon and his group had arrived long before them.

Using the ghost map and the spirit’s guidance, they had arrived at the location in no time. It was an old stadium, one of the very first to be built in Iborg city. Ironically, it was named after the dead traitorous governor as his residence once stood there.

A part of the stadium seemed to have collapsed in and evacuations were ongoing.

“Shit! There are too many people here, all of them are perfect hosts for evil spirits.” Andre looked at the reporters and ordinary people that had come to check out the site.

He was learning to talk like a ghost catcher and a regular in the supernatural business.

Phoebe was bound to agree with her, there were too many unnecessary eyes in the area. There were a few police officers in the area that were keeping spectators at bay.

The ground trembled and heavily armored vehicles appeared in sight and the fully camouflaged army men jumped off the trucks.

“Fun’s over, everybody leave this place.” They pointed their guns at the spectators who began leave right away.

The heavy deployment of armed soldiers with guns easily frightened their soft hearts. The force used to evict the people was completely unnecessary and the news about what was happening only spread faster as people and reporters uploaded videos on the internet.

First an explosion and then military deployment, everyone could smell something in the water.

“Move back please, way back. Some deadly chemicals have been detected in the area, it’s not safe for you to be here.” A soldier finally came to Phoebe and her group.

He used a softer tone than when he was barking orders at the other spectators. This was because of the expensive cars and all the bodyguards that were clearly armed as well.

“We cannot leave, we have business here.” Phoebe responded.

She flashed her fake police badge and put it away quickly before the soldier could ask to take a closer look.

“Ma’am only authorized officers are being allowed access and CPD has not been assigned to handle this matter. Which department are you with?” the soldier looked curiously at the group.

No matter how many times he looked at them, they did not look like police officers. Who in the country did not recognize David Saxon, Andre Mayfair the actor and Edward Mayfair current CEO of Mayfair Corp. When did they start working for the police?

Phoebe saw Amon with a newly arrived group and she jumped up, waving her hands wildly.

“Yoohoo, hey Drusus, over here.”

Edward moaned a little and he wanted to bury himself in the ground. Amon was not the only Drusus there, the army general was also a Drusus and he was walking with Amon. The general did not like being disrespected, this, everybody knew.

Amon and the general approached them. “They are with us.”

Phoebe rushed in without waiting and she fell into step with Amon who started making introductions.

“Uncle Paul, this is the ghost…err…helper, counselor or whatever she wants to be instead of a catcher, Phoebe Mayfair.”

The general’s eyebrows shot up at the Mayfair name. He recognized Edward for sure but he also knew that the Mayfairs were a small family and had only one daughter the popular socialite Ruth Mayfair. With the current state of affairs in the country, it was not that hard to put together what was going on.

“Cuckoo.” he grabbed Amon’s hand and whispered.

Amon nodded and introduced three men to his uncle. “You know the rest uncle, Saxon and two more Mayfairs.”

They traded greetings and shook hands but the general’s interest returned to Phoebe pretty quickly. It was obvious that he had been one of those people swept up by the cuckoo news.

“I can’t believe you had a cuckoo too in your house Edward. It’s the first i am hearing of this.” he looked at Phoebe with so much interest. “What was it like going from rags to riches at the snap of a finger?”

“Uncle, not now.” Amon whispered.

It was very embarrassing for him to expose the gossipy side of the army general which was opposite of the tough man image he had cultivated and the public was so familiar with.

The army general backed off but he intended to have a talk with Phoebe later.

“Mr. superstar, perhaps you ought to cover up.” he advised.

Andre was drawing a lot of unnecessary attention even from the soldiers.

“You too Saxon, cover the hair.” he instructed.

The two of them were sticking out like sore thumbs in the midst of this crowd. News helicopters were already circling above the more news continued to travel.

When they came to the entrance leading down where the bodies of the soldiers and treasures were buried they were all divided into groups.

One group of soldiers was going to help recover the skeletons, it was going to be led by Amon. Their were at least eighty of them and they were not soldiers, not just ordinary ones from the few markings that Phoebe saw on their bodies.

They were exorcists and ghost catchers in disguise or actual soldiers that handled special situations. Exactly how many ghost catchers were in the country?

The rest of the group was going to be led by the army general himself and he was very stern and serious when he addressed his men.

“Alright everybody listen up, the priority here are the treasures in there including a national seal.” He rubbed his hands and licked his lips. “Be careful with the treasures and your lives.”

They went down into the tunnel which had been dug by fire men long before they arrived on site.

Phoebe and her group did not go down because she remained where she was standing. Since she was the reason why they were all there in the first place, she needed to tell them how to proceed.

“What’s the plan Pheebs? Do we go digging into the dark tunnel as well?” Andre asked.

He had on his camera, ready to document the entire journey.

Phoebe pointed to the still intact part of the stadium with a lour on her face. Why had they chosen to go down the dark unsteady tunnel?

“Did none of them realize that there is a door and stairs that lead to the bottom?”
