Holding a memorial service in the hotel was quite a strange idea. Of course, the hotel’s manager wasn’t pleased. That was why security guards were shooing people away.

Compared to the security guards, the deceased’s family members were even more stirred up. They said that the hotel had killed people and that they wanted justice.

Someone had called the police. Soon, the police came and took all the trouble-makers away. They also asked the hotel’s manager to go to the police station to report the situation.

The guests at the hotel returned to their rooms as the fun was over. I waited until they all left to have a closer look.

The portrait of the deceased depicted a very young girl. It was a pity that she had died at such a young age. After thinking about the paranormal activities the front desk clerk had mentioned, I decided to enter the room to check.

I was lucky that no one had remembered to lock the room because of the turmoil. But as soon as I stepped into the room, I shuddered. It seemed the girl at the front desk was right.

A fast battle, a fast victory. I took out the Peach Soul Flower and held it in my hand. It should be enough to deal with an ordinary ghost.

The temperature in the room dropped by a few degrees. It seemed the spirit here couldn’t stay still. I sat on the bed and pretended to lie down to sleep.

While lying down, I saw a white shadow fall from the ceiling. I was prepared. I rolled over and got up, looking into the white eyes of the ghost.

It seemed to be an evil ghost. I didn’t dare to be careless. I jumped from the bed and pointed the Peach Soul Flower at her. I yelled, “Why do you harm people?”

She didn’t react to me but screamed hoarsely, hurling herself toward me. I hastily threw the Peach Soul Flower at her. I didn’t expect that her body would suddenly make a hole that allowed the Peach Soul Flower to pass through and close right after that.

I was surprised that the Peach Soul Flower couldn’t subdue her. After realizing that my ‘bright idea’ hadn’t worked, I felt like slapping myself. I quickly scanned the room and saw a big mirror by the door. I went over and broke the mirror with my bare hands. I picked a big shard and shone it at the female ghost.

The mirror was an item that could expel evil spirits and ghosts, but not many people knew that. People often placed mirrors in the wrong position in the house. A mirror in the wrong location couldn’t expel evil spirits. Instead, it would invite them. Gradually, people stopped using mirrors to expel evil spirits.

However, a mirror was a good tool for exorcisms. Mirrors could reflect light, and looking at such light for a long time could make people nervous and even hallucinate. This kind of reflected light was powerful when dealing with ghosts!

The female ghost screamed when the mirror shone at her. She ran to the window, where she bounced back due to an invisible barrier.

I was surprised but soon got it. She had stayed here and done evil things because she was imprisoned in this room. Her resentful energy had accumulated day after day. It would be strange if she didn’t harm anybody!

When the ghost recognized that she couldn’t escape, she bared her teeth and rolled her eyes at me. She roared again but didn’t dare to attack me.

Holding the mirror, I said, “I can help you leave this place.”

She didn’t look like she understood what I had said. She looked at me and whined about something. Feeling helpless, I had to look around the room as I kept an eye on her. There must be a formation or something mysterious in this room that had bound her here.

I’d been here for quite a long time but I couldn’t notice the existence of a formation. The possibility of there being something else in this room loomed bigger. Soon, I had checked all the things I could see except for under the bed.

The female ghost was as fierce as a tiger lurking at its prey. I didn’t dare to bend to check the bed. Luckily for me, this hotel room was equipped with a cloth rack for the guests to use. I took it and extended it underneath the table to search.

I found that the bed was solid and there was no space underneath. Then, my eyes moved to the bathroom.

It seemed that thing was in the bathroom. After seeing me linger outside the bathroom, the ghost suddenly stirred up. She wanted to jump toward me many times, but she hesitated for some reason.

There should be something in there as she was afraid of the place. She didn’t dare to approach the bathroom. I eased my nervous heart and checked the bathroom. The glazed counter, the showerhead, and the shower chamber looked normal. Eventually, my eyes turned to the toilet bowl…

I thought to myself, It shouldn’t be that melodramatic, should it?

However, I still boldly lifted the toilet lid. I found a bone with a talisman in the toilet.

This piece of bone was so small that I couldn’t recognize what kind of bone it was. However, the bone that could entice the soul was often from a skull.

I showed the piece of bone to the ghost. She stirred up again and roared at me. It seemed the bone belonged to this ghost. I activated the Yin and Yang Umbrella to protect myself. Then, I read the runes on the talisman.

It was just a simple spell to subdue the soul. A talisman on a skull could confine the deceased’s soul. Of course, it was easy to solve this spell. I just needed to tear the talisman.

I wondered who had a big grudge against this woman. She was dead, but she couldn’t rest. It was no wonder why she had become violent.

I shook my head and peeled the talisman off the bone. As soon as the ghost saw that the talisman was deactivated, she turned and moved toward the window.

I followed her. Fortunately, I was on the third floor, so I could just jump and land on some air conditioner covers. I followed the ghost’s aura to track her down.

After chasing after her for a long time, I found that something was wrong. It was ill-lit inside the hotel, which was why the ghost could appear. However, it was sunny outside. How could she dare to go out?

I patted my thigh when I knew I was tricked. I hurriedly returned to the hotel. When I got there, the entire third floor was covered in a dark miasma. People were screaming inside.

I rush to the third floor to rescue the people trapped in the dark miasma. Then, I returned to that room.

Without the talisman, she was no longer scared of me. She reached out her hands and rolled her eyes at me.

I hated that I couldn’t just slap myself. Why did I do such a careless thing and released her?!

Anyway, this ghost wanted to kill her savior, so she wouldn’t have a bright future. I happened to have a bag of rooster blood mixed with cinnabar left from Aji’s case. I didn’t show mercy and splashed the mixture on her.

“Ahhh!” The ghost shot to the ground as though she was electrified. She screamed and screeched, but I didn’t have any sympathy for her now. I threw the Yin and Yang Umbrella on her and read the activating spell. I didn’t stop reading the spell until she had turned into ashes.

When I went downstairs, I saw the two young women at the front desk whispering to each other again. They seemed to be discussing how bad the ghost was.

I pouted. Humans’ hearts were more frightening than ghosts. However, people could hide their hearts while ghosts couldn’t…
