At midnight under a blood-red crescent moon,
the bustling and luxurious spectacle of the capital city showed no sign of ending.
It was an exclusive feast.
The most top - notch private club in the capital. Eight massive marble Roman columns held up a den of decadence.
"Mr. Si... No!! Don't!!!"
From behind a large door inlaid with dark green leather, faint moans of a woman desperately suppressing her cries could be heard.
I, who was about to swipe my card to enter, paused for a moment and couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Are you sure it's here?!!!"
Beside me was a little boy about five or six years old. His porcelain - like face was set with a pair of big, jet - black eyes. At this moment, he was nodding anxiously. "Sister, hurry up! There's a ghost going to eat my dad!"
"..."
I gave a suspicious look at the compass in my hand. The golden needle in the Taiji pool, which had been floating erratically before, suddenly started spinning wildly.
This was a typical case of "needle deflection", an abnormal phenomenon that only occurred when a extremely evil ghost was around.
Could the woman shouting "Mr. Si, don't" in the room be a ghost that sucked people's vital energy?!
My hesitation annoyed the little boy. He pouted his lips and slowly stretched out his chubby little hand, bending his thumb and little finger to make a number gesture.
I immediately gritted my teeth and stamped my feet. Regardless of what kind of chaos was going on inside, I swiped my card with a "beep" and kicked open the door, rushing in.
...
The room was deathly quiet.
The erotic and eerie scene I had imagined didn't happen.
It was a super - luxurious suite.
Even the entrance living room was bigger than my shop.
The floor was covered with a luxurious dark - gold carpet. The expensive mahogany furniture glowed with an air of opulence under the dim spotlight.
"Uh!!"
I frowned and looked again at the little boy who was peeping from behind me. I saw that big teardrops were rolling down his cheeks in anxiety. He was muttering softly, "It's bad!! It's bad! The ghost ate my dad! The ghost ate my dad!"
"Don't cry!"
I was bad at comforting kids and was most afraid of their endless crying.
I had just heard those passionate sounds. Even the hungriest ghost couldn't have devoured a whole person without leaving a trace!
The compass needle was still spinning wildly. Every time it turned to the southwest, it would pause for a moment. The blood - red needle bobbed up and down, pointing straight at the dark - red master bedroom door!
I carefully carried the compass and walked towards the door.
Suddenly, the needle spun again and pointed behind me.
I quickly turned around and saw a woman with a deathly - pale face and bulging eyes appear silently behind us.
"Ah!!!"
The little boy beside me was terrified and screamed as he hid behind me.
"Chase the ghost and catch the culprit. All laws converge. Those who resist will be annihilated in body and soul!"
I immediately protected the compass with my right hand and made a ghost - chasing hand gesture with my left hand, aiming it at the distorted and hideous woman.
"... Hoo hoo hoo!"
The spell hit the woman right on her forehead, but her momentum didn't slow down at all. Her rigid body crashed into mine. She grabbed my shoulders with both hands and growled as she lunged at my neck.
I never expected that this woman was alive. Her wide - open mouth emitted a strong stench of decay, and there were still traces of blood between her teeth.
If she bit me, she would not only tear off a large piece of my flesh, but I'd probably have to get a rabies vaccine!
Thinking of the expensive vaccine that cost hundreds of dollars, I desperately tilted my head and stepped back.
At this moment, the bedroom door opened somehow, and I bumped heavily into a solid chest.
"What's the commotion!"
Along with the faint scent of shower gel, a cold voice came from above my head.
Then a large, well - defined hand reached over my ear and grabbed the terrifying woman by the forehead, throwing her straight out.
"Ah!!"
I was startled and was about to turn around to look.
Unexpectedly, that large hand grabbed the back of my neck and dragged me backwards into the bedroom.
"Bang!"
The door was slammed shut. The owner of the hand didn't intend to let me go. He still held my neck and pinned me against the walnut - wood door.
"Are you... also sent by Wei Wenzhao?"
The voice behind me was low and lazy, with a hoarse note of unfulfilled desire.
"... I... I'm not! I don't know... Wei Wenzhao..."
My face was pressed firmly against the cold door panel. I couldn't see the man behind me, but I could smell the strong killing intent on him!
Blood, darkness, rage, coldness... All the negative emotions were like countless malicious hands seeping into my body through my tracksuit, making me shiver uncontrollably.
"Hehe, not... admitting it?"
The man behind me slightly tightened his fingers and effortlessly turned me around. In the backlight, I couldn't see his face clearly at all. I only knew that he was very tall and there were still drops of water sliding down his bare chest.
"Didn't the General Manager Wei send you here to drug me and then get into my bed?"
His tone was mocking, but his fingers were scalding hot.
"No... I!!"
I shook my head frantically, trying to explain. "It's a mistake... Uh..."
Before I could finish my words, two thin lips full of the stench of blood and alcohol were pressed against mine.
I was lifted off the ground like a chick.
I was so scared that I wanted to scream subconsciously. As soon as I opened my mouth, the man took the opportunity to pry open my lips and teeth and kissed me deeply.
His hand held the back of my head, preventing me from escaping. The other hand firmly grasped my waist and pulled me tightly into his arms.
I had never been treated like this before!!!
The man's kiss was hot and domineering, grinding against my lips. The painful and numb feeling went straight to my heart, leaving my mind a blank.
"Uh..."
It wasn't until his hand on my waist sneakily slipped into my clothes that I was finally awakened by his extremely hot temperature.
"Slap!!"
I raised my hand and swung it at the man who had molested me. I almost forgot that I was still holding the lightning - struck jujube - wood compass in my hand.
The solid - wood compass hit his temple heavily. The crystal glass of the celestial pool immediately shattered and flew everywhere. The compass needle shot out and left a deep scar on the man's cheek.
The man finally paused for a moment. I took the opportunity to bite his lips hard. He let go in pain, and I immediately jumped to the ground and turned to run out of the door.
This was the SVIP lounge on the sixth floor of the exclusive club.
There was only one suite on this huge floor, but there were three special elevators at the end of the corridor. As long as I ran into the elevator, swiped my card and closed the door, he wouldn't be able to catch me.
The sound of footsteps followed me leisurely.
"Little mouse, where can you run to?"
The man's cold and mocking voice rang out again.
I bit my lip and rushed to the elevator door in one breath. I reached into my pocket to look for my access card, only to find that my pocket was empty. The access card was gone.
"Looking for this?"
The man was less than two steps away from me. His long fingertips were pinching my silver - black access card!!!
