Standing at the door of the hidden room, Chen Ge focused his ears on the song. The woman’s singing voice was strange, and she was singing some old folk song that had long disappeared from Jiujiang. Through the walls papered with talismans, just listening to her voice, when he closed his eyes, he could practically see green tiles and blue roofs, mantles of various colors like he had been transported to the past. Taking a deep breath, his lungs were filled with a scent that was unique to rouge.

“She has a surprisingly mellifluous voice. This Red Specter is rather unique.” Chen Ge snapped out of it. “My Haunted House still doesn’t have a worker who knows how to sing classical songs. If she is willing, I can help her.”

The woman’s voice was alluring and she was singing in a local dialect. Chen Ge could only understand some of it and thus had no idea what she was singing about.

“Which room will you choose? The hidden room is the most dangerous. Will you come here?” Chen Ge’s hands tightened, and right then, he heard the door wiggle. The door of the bedroom outside of the hidden room was opened!

As the door opened, the woman with long hair who sat in the room alone screamed.

“Xu Yin!” Chen Ge pulled open the closet door, and he saw a thin woman wearing a bloody stage costume standing at the bedroom door. Her fingers were pressed on the door, and hatred pooled in her red eyes. Her body leaned against the wall, and the skin exposed through the costume was covered in wounds.

“Careful!” Chen Ge yelled at the woman in the room as he grabbed her by her arm and pulled her behind him. While he blocked her from danger, Chen Ge also blocked her view. Before she could recover from the fear, Xu Yin rushed out from the hidden room and charged at the Red Specter in the costume.

“The red high heels is hindering the altar, and Xu Yin will be chasing after you. Where are you going to go?” Chen Ge glanced behind him. After Xu Yin and the Red Specter left, he stood up. He was about to leave when someone grabbed his shirt.

“Don’t… don’t go. The woman in the stage costume isn’t one of the workers!” The woman went through a lot before she could say that. Her hair was disheveled. The woman who had a bad opinion of Chen Ge finally had a change of mind. When she was in danger, the man stood before her, putting himself in danger for her. The business competition aside, the man was a morally upstanding man.

“How do you know she is not a worker here?”

“I…”

“Don’t worry, perhaps she’s just a projection. After all, this place is a combination of forty hellish scenarios. Any strange projection can appear.” Chen Ge pretended not to notice the change in the woman’s room and ran out of the bedroom. The other visitors who heard the commotion ran over, but the Red Specter had already disappeared.

“Where have they gone?” Chen Ge was not worried about Xu Yin and red high heels; they could fend off even Top Red Specters, much less a normal one.

Now I can confirm that there is indeed a Red Specter at this house, but the Specter is in a strange state, completely different from the other Red Specters I’ve met.

What was the difference? Chen Ge could not tell. The only thing he could do now was find a way to control that Red Specter.
