"Laurent, can we be more normal? There's a ghost there." Chen Zhao grabbed Laurent's shoulder. "Can't you just stay at home and enjoy a peaceful life?"
"Okay, okay. If you don't want to go, I'll go myself."
"…"
…
"You were so loud just now. You said it for Fali, right?" Chen Zhao drove with a dark expression.
He hadn't said it for himself at all. It was for Fali.
Fali was worried that Laurent would go find a ghost, so she could only let Chen Zhao accompany him.
Laurent was very proud. Chen Zhao really had the urge to pinch him to death.
It was said that having an old man at home was like having a treasure.
Chen Zhao felt that this old man was a piece of grass.
He was a jinx.
"Laurent, you were scared half to death last night. Did you forget?"
"I wasn't mentally prepared."
"Are you ready now?"
"Don't worry. If I meet a ghost, you'll be with me, right?"
Chen Zhao's face darkened. He wasn't afraid of ghosts, but Laurent's thoughts disgusted him.
"Then, do you want to meet a ghost or do you not want to meet a ghost?"
"I … I want to see her again."
"Tell me the truth. Did you do it with her for a while?" Chen Zhao started gossiping again.
"Are you ready to tell Winnip on me at any time?"
When they reached the desolate neighborhood, Laurent started cowering again.
"So cowardly." Chen Zhao rolled his eyes.
Laurent immediately retorted loudly, "You didn't see a ghost. That's why you have the courage to say that. If you did, you might be even more cowardly than me."
Chen Zhao looked around leisurely. The neighborhood was desolate during the day, but it was normal.
When they reached the small house, Laurent chickened out again.
"Aren't you not afraid? Why did you stop? "
Laurent hesitated, but he finally opened the door.
Chen Zhao touched his nose. It smelled like rotten wood.
After entering the room, Chen Zhao looked around.
Seeing a book on the table, he picked it up.
Suddenly, Chen Zhao raised an eyebrow.
Many of the contents of the book were recorded in demon language.
Laurent saw Chen Zhao holding the book. "Do you understand that book? The words inside are so strange, I've never seen them before. "
Chen Zhao flipped through the book. It had a faint magical aura.
Its previous owner should be a spiritualist.
However, perhaps because it had been a long time since he read it, the aura was very faint.
Chen Zhao's hand paused. He flipped to the page with the thirteen keys.
At the bottom of this page, there was a paragraph written in Demon language:
Every civilization had an ultimate goal, which was to pursue eternity.
Each key corresponds to a door. Try to open the door, and behind the door will be the answer you want to know.
Maybe right, maybe wrong.
Perhaps through mistakes, you can be sublimated.
Maybe in the right world, you will lose everything.
It was very cryptic. At least, Chen Zhao didn't know what it meant.
Chen Zhao hated things that pretended to be profound.
Couldn't they just talk things out?
Why did he have to deliberately mystify things?
Bullying me for being uncultured?
"Hey, where did you throw the book?"
Laurent looked at Chen Zhao, who had been holding a book before, but now he was empty-handed.
"I put it back on the shelf," Chen Zhao said. "That should be enough. Let's go."
"Chen, I saw a basement just now. Let's go down and take a look."
Chen Zhao covered his forehead. "Aren't you afraid of death?"
He was clearly a coward, but he still wanted to die.
"If you're scared, you can go back. I'll go down myself."
"Okay, you can go down yourself."
"Wait … Chen, I'm giving you a chance to perform and improve my impression of you."
"Don't change. Otherwise, you won't be you." Chen Zhao interrupted him. "In my heart, you're just an old bastard. Just like how you don't like me, I don't like you either. Don't change unilaterally."
Laurent's face was red with anger. If he could beat Chen Zhao, he really wanted to punch him.
He stood at the entrance of the basement alone. After some hesitation, he finally made up his mind and bravely took the first step into the darkness.
Slap!
"Ah …" Laurent looked back and saw Chen Zhao. "Are you trying to scare me to death?"
"Too bad you're not dead."
With Chen Zhao by his side, Laurent mustered up his courage.
The basement was already covered in spider webs and filled with all sorts of things.
"Ah …" Laurent suddenly let out a scream.
Chen Zhao turned his head and saw a skeleton behind a board that Laurent had flipped open.
"Is this Pamela?"
"She's not your Pamela."
"Why?"
"From the shape of the skeleton, it should be a man's skeleton. It's at least 1.85 meters tall."
Chen Zhao was a doctor, after all. He could tell.
"Did Pamela kill someone here?"
Chen Zhao couldn't answer that. But up until now, he hadn't seen Pamela's soul.
Usually, ghosts would only come out at night.
But from Laurent's previous statement, Chen Zhao guessed that Pamela had been a witch when she was alive.
After a witch died, if her soul still existed, it might even be stronger than when she was alive.
So, it wasn't strange that she could come out during the day.
But Chen Zhao didn't really care.
The witch hadn't hurt Laurent, which meant that she didn't have any intention of harming him.
Chen Zhao was more concerned about the 13 keys.
Those words kept repeating in Chen Zhao's mind.
If there were a total of thirteen keys, then he should have four keys now.
Did he have to collect all 13 keys to solve the mystery?
But where could he find the other keys?
He didn't have any clues at all. What a headache.
Chen Zhao didn't know why, but he had a vague feeling that he should find the other keys.
But he didn't even know how to find the keys.
He didn't even know what the keys were used for.
Why should he look?
But why did he want to find them?
Chen Zhao was very conflicted right now. Rationality and impulsiveness.
Suddenly, Chen Zhao turned his head.
At the entrance of the basement, a figure flashed past.
It was the figure of a woman!
Was she Pamela?
Chen Zhao didn't see clearly. He hadn't seen Pamela before.
So, Chen Zhao didn't know if he saw Pamela.
"Let's go," Laurent said in disappointment. "Looks like Pamela doesn't want to see me, or she's already left."
When Chen Zhao left the basement, he looked back at the dark basement again.
