Guan Qingqing watched the young girl being sweet-talked into the door by the man and naturally wouldn’t give the player any more chances to deceive her.
She looked up at the light tubes in the room, gently raised her hand, and sent out a wave of ghost energy.
With a "pop" sound,
The light tube overhead suddenly shattered.
The girl screamed, and the foot she had just stepped inside immediately pulled back.
"Ah! What’s happening?"
"It’s nothing, it’s nothing, the light might be broken. I’ll turn on another light. Don’t be afraid."
The man patiently coaxed her, turned off the entrance light switch, walked to the living room, and turned on the spotlight.
Spotlights are better, creating more atmosphere.
Thinking this, he waved at Alexa again at the door.
Seeing this, Alexa finally felt at ease to enter.
Just as her foot stepped inside, the spotlight in the living room also went "pop" and shattered again!
"Ah!" Alexa exclaimed once more, exiting the room again.
Even if she didn’t believe in supernatural entities or ghosts, two lights bursting in a row in such a bizarre manner made her feel a little scared.
"Cody, maybe... maybe I shouldn’t go inside. Could you lend me a coat to cover myself, and I’ll just take a cab home? I’ll return the clean coat later, is that okay?"
The girl’s voice was soft yet tinged with fear.
The man named Cody, despite his reluctance, knew there was nothing he could do tonight.
So he straightforwardly said,
"Alright, with the room dark, it’s not a good idea for you to come in and change. Let me get you a coat."
His straightforward attitude, as if he had planned this all along, won the girl over.
He personally wrapped her skirt well and considerately escorted her to the community gate.
Only after watching her leave did he return to his room.
As soon as he stepped inside, the man’s face instantly turned grim.
Unwilling, he casually took out an art knife from his pocket and tossed it onto the cabinet in the hallway, muttering curses,
"Of all times, you choose tonight to break. What a crappy circuit. If it weren’t for you, I would’ve had her in bed tonight!"
While cursing, he opened the fridge to grab a drink.
Taking a swig of cold beer, he pulled out his phone, dialed property management, and unleashed a tirade on them, finally venting his frustration.
Then he opened his phone again, sending a voice message to a contact named "Aisha Baby," with a completely changed tone,
"Baby, did you enjoy the trip? I really missed you these days when I couldn’t see you. Remember to stay safe out there."
While Cody Zimmerman did all this, he didn’t see Guan Qingqing standing by his side, watching him intently.
Just feeling a slight chill tonight, saving him from turning on the air conditioning.
Guan Qingqing remembered Scarlett Jennings’ instructions, not daring to do anything else that might give away the game, patiently waiting for the man to freshen up and go to bed.
Only then did she, using her usual method, enter the man’s dreams.
Once again, it was the familiar routine.
In his sleep, Cody suddenly became lucid and found a girl sitting on the other side of the bed.
In his hazy state, he thought she was his date tonight, Alexa Clark, reaching out to grab her, only to clutch the air, startling himself awake.
It looked quite real.
However, in the comment section, many doubted she was leveraging the show’s popularity for hype.
[Sounds a bit fake. Who would just go to a possibly haunted villa for help after watching a live stream? Never mind whether the ghost exists or not, why would they help you??]
[Though her story about the capitalist ghost lady is quite pitiful, there’s no need to ride this hype, is there?]
[I’m a real-life friend of the Little Fairy Lady; I can attest to her truthfulness. We’ve tried every method to get the player to return the money. Who would seek help from spirits and gods unless driven to desperation?]
[But indeed, the player is despicable. Hearing about the ghost lady’s methods on her ex-husband, I wish it were true. If it is, I’ll also seek her help.]
[These days, there is still such a naive girl, expecting to solve problems through ghostly means rather than using her own abilities?]
[Who is the player? Support exposing him!]
The comments were mixed concerning the Little Fairy Lady’s statements.
Some expressed understanding of her desperate actions,
Others thought she was naive and deserved to be deceived,
The majority didn’t believe what she said but sympathized with her plight.
Not bothered by the online comments, the Little Fairy Lady persisted in replying to all messages.
As netizens advised her not to overly believe in such unrealistic existences, a trending topic suddenly exploded.
The top three trending slots were filled with buzzwords.
Ranking first was the tag #DashiellXalvadoraSerialKiller#.
Clicking into the trend led to the latest investigation announcement released by the Sea City police—
Regarding Jasper Xalvadora’s murder charges against five young girls.
Just this first news instantly blew up the entire internet!
