Chapter 33: One More Look
“An apple?”
Looking at the apple in her hand, Qin Liu’s expression was a little surprised.
Since becoming a ghost, Qin Liu had not eaten anything.
For who knows how many years, she had almost forgotten what taste was.
And now, a pervert who sent her suspender stockings had given her half an apple.
Qin Liu stared blankly at the apple in her hand, and finally, she tentatively took a bite.
With just one bite, the sweet and familiar taste made her eyes widen.
“I didn’t think it tasted good at all when I was alive…”
Qin Liu savored it slowly, and by the end, only a clean apple core was left in her hand.
For Qin Liu, who had not eaten anything for an unknown amount of time, let alone an apple, even Indian food…
Forget it, even dogs would shake their heads at that stuff.
After finishing it all, she licked her fingers reluctantly.
“Perhaps, he’s really a good person?”
Sitting on the bed, Qin Liu pondered.
Ever since she was hit on the head by the apple, she felt like she had become the Newton of ghosts, and her thoughts suddenly opened up.
“Although he’s a bit perverted and has a shrimp head, he doesn’t seem to have any hostility, or maybe it’s because I didn’t show any danger.”
Qin Liu’s current impression of Liu Haoyu was that he looked goofy and never serious.
But if she had generated killing intent or shown extremely dangerous behavior towards Liu Haoyu when they first met, like other fierce ghosts… he would have killed her.
Thinking of this, Qin Liu couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief.
After all, the terrifying white-clothed fierce ghost in the reservoir was subdued by him, and she, a ghost without any weapons, who could only create useless illusions, had no chance against Liu Haoyu, this battle-hardened and fearless ghost exorcist.
“Why not try to communicate with him?”
Finally, Qin Liu mustered up some courage.
——————
When Liu Haoyu returned to the haunted house, it was already six in the morning.
Looking at the dim sky outside, Liu Haoyu yawned.
After a day of exhaustion, he entered the room and set up a defensive formation.
Although the formation was useless against Qin Liu, and solitary ghosts had to flee from this haunted house as if being chased by a train, it was always better to be cautious.
However, as soon as he lay down, he felt, for some reason, that his bed carried a faint scent.
The smell was somewhat familiar, but Liu Haoyu, extremely tired, couldn’t recall it for a moment.
But he didn’t think much of it, closed his eyes, and slowly drifted off to sleep.
In his dream, Liu Haoyu woke up again.
At this moment, he saw himself lying on a grassland.
There was a vast white mist all around, and he couldn’t see into the distance.
“Is Qin Liu causing trouble again?”
Liu Haoyu sighed.
But he was already used to it, so he didn’t think too much and began to look around.
Because the mist was very dense, Liu Haoyu couldn’t determine where he was.
Even though he knew it was a dream, he still had to find a way to wake up from it.
As Liu Haoyu was observing, a red figure appeared in the white mist.
Liu Haoyu couldn’t see its face, only a blurry shape.
It also noticed Liu Haoyu and extended its hand, pointing to the left.
Just like last time, the red figure tried to lead Liu Haoyu somewhere.
Liu Haoyu didn’t hesitate and followed behind it.
In fact, this behavior was extremely dangerous. Following the instructions of a fierce ghost could lead one to an abyss of no return.
Under normal circumstances, turning and leaving would be the best choice.
But Liu Haoyu didn’t back down last time, so he wouldn’t be afraid this time either.
He followed closely behind the red shadow, gradually getting lost in the mist.
Until Liu Haoyu saw a luxurious building appear in the mist.
“This is… my house?”
Liu Haoyu’s expression was a little confused. Why did the red shadow bring him here?
However, judging by its appearance, the haunted house was indeed a mansion before it was abandoned.
If the haunted house in reality looked like this, let alone five thousand, even several zeros added wouldn’t be enough to buy it.
The door of the mansion slowly opened, and the red figure walked in.
To figure out her intentions, Liu Haoyu also walked into the mansion.
However, upon entering, he found that many passages in the mansion were covered by dark mist.
Even the bright lights in the passages could not illuminate them; these black mists seemed to absorb light.
Even more bizarre, the black mist seemed to have countless bloody eyes staring at him.
However, upon closer inspection, he found that there was nothing in the black mist.
This situation was indeed a bit creepy. With a prickling sensation on his back, Liu Haoyu vigilantly observed his surroundings, lest any monsters rush out of the black mist, and followed the path the red shadow had taken.
He went up to the second floor, but looking at this path, Liu Haoyu finally reacted.
Wasn’t this the direction to the bedroom?
After going in circles, where was this red shadow trying to take him?
Liu Haoyu was filled with doubt, and at the same time, he noticed that the red shadow had already opened the bedroom door and entered it.
To avoid being detected by her, Liu Haoyu hid behind the door, gently opened a crack, and observed the situation inside.
Through the door crack, he saw, in the room filled with predominantly red and purple, the girl sitting calmly on the bed.
She gently took off her wedding dress, leaving only an undergarment with red flowers.
Due to the limited viewing angle, Liu Haoyu could only see the girl’s small feet and her fair, milky-white thighs.
The parts above were completely hidden by the bed curtain.
Is this Qin Liu?
No way?
Liu Haoyu, as an experienced ghost exorcist, would naturally not be tempted by such beauty.
His mind was as calm as water, and he watched the situation in the room with a calm expression.
He also bowed slightly.
And while Liu Haoyu was peeking, the girl in the room took out suspender stockings, which were completely out of place for her era, from somewhere.
She hesitated for a moment, then began to put them on her slender, perfect feet, little by little, slowly.
After pulling them up to her thighs, the girl clipped the suspender clasps onto the stockings.
Once dressed, the girl lifted her feet at a forty-degree angle, as if admiring her “white ice cream.”
This intentional or unintentional act carried immense charm, making it impossible to resist.
Liu Haoyu righteously averted his gaze.
Is this how they test cadres?
Which cadre can withstand such a test?
One more look.
