Sienna smiled bitterly. "If I had any trump cards, I wouldn't have kept them until now."
"Then … Then should we open the door?"
"Are you sure the monster behind the door won't eat us too?"
"Maybe … maybe it's on our side?"
Maria was about to stuff her body into the basement, but just then, she suddenly stopped.
Maria tried to turn her head, but her body blocked the door completely. She couldn't turn her head at all.
"What's that? Damn bastard, don't touch me … "
Maria looked very angry and wanted to kick away whatever was touching her from behind.
But the next moment, Maria's face suddenly changed to one of extreme pain.
Everyone noticed Maria's abnormality. Maria's expression changed from pain to horror. She held onto the door of the basement with all her might.
"Sienna … Save me … Save me …" Maria was completely terrified. "Save me …"
The next moment, Maria seemed to be pulled out by some kind of power. The basement door was also yanked off.
It took her more than ten minutes to stuff half her body in, but it only took her an instant to be pulled out.
Then, everyone heard Maria's tragic wail from outside the basement.
The process was very fast. In just a few seconds, Maria's cries had disappeared and the outside fell into silence.
"What … What's that?"
"The hybrid of evil spirits is here, right …" Sienna wasn't sure either.
Thud, thud, thud —
The sound of footsteps came from outside the basement. A figure that everyone felt was kind and amiable appeared at the entrance of the basement.
"Hi, looks like I'm a bit late."
Everyone's eyes widened as they stared at Chen Zhao, who'd suddenly appeared.
"Good thing you didn't open this door." Chen Zhao walked into the basement and pulled out the key from the magic door.
"Oriental, you …"
"Chen, it's great that you're back." David hugged Chen Zhao excitedly.
"Where's Maria? And those evil spirits? "Sienna stared at Chen Zhao in disbelief.
"Don't worry. They're all gone now," Chen Zhao said calmly.
"What do you mean by gone? You've already gotten rid of them? That's impossible, that's hundreds of evil spirits, and many of them are terrifying evil spirits. "
Compared to being saved, she was even more unwilling to accept that Chen Zhao had actually destroyed the evil spirit.
Ying — —
At this moment, Ai Sha, who was in the wheelchair, spoke softly.
"Aisha … Aisha, you're awake?" Bord shouted with joy.
"Daddy … Where is this place?"
Sienna frowned and looked at the time. "It's not even one in the morning. It's over already?"
"Come out, all of you. Do you plan to spend the night in the basement?"
When Fali walked out of the basement, she saw the mess in the living room.
"Chen, I want you to explain what's going on. Also, what's going on with them?"
Chen Zhao sat on the sofa. It was the only intact sofa in the living room.
"Haven't you already seen it? What else do you need me to explain?"
"How did you destroy Maria? How did you get rid of those evil spirits? You can't possibly do it. "
"Fine, fine. I can't do it. Alright, shouldn't you leave my house now?"
"Chen, can I stay for the night?" David clearly did not have the courage to walk at night anymore.
"Mr. Chen, you can't let me take Ai Sha outside so late, right?" Bord's reason was also very good.
"What about you? Miss. "
Sienna hesitated. "I'm staying too. I have many questions for you to answer."
"Sorry, I'm not obliged to answer your questions. Mr. Bord, you can take your daughter to the guest room to sleep or use my towel. There are disposable toiletries in the bathroom, but there are no clothes."
"Thank you. You saved my daughter twice. Thank you."
"It's just convenient."
"Dad, did something happen? Aren't we going home? "Ai Sha nestled in Bord's arms. She looked very awake, as if she'd completely recovered.
"Chen, where should I sleep?" David immediately moved closer. "If you don't have enough rooms, I don't mind sharing a room with someone else."
With that, David turned to look at Sienna.
"Here." Chen Zhao pointed at the floor. "The living room."
"No way?"
"I'm very tired. I'm going to rest." Chen Zhao turned to leave.
"Wait …" Fali pulled him back. "You can't leave before we talk."
"You've already seen what you should and shouldn't see. What else do you want to know?"
"What exactly is hidden in the basement? I mean behind that door. "
"I remember saying that this is a haunted house, right?"
"Are there really ghosts here?"
"Anyway, as long as you don't open the door randomly, the thing inside won't come out. At least not when I'm not here."
Everyone swallowed a mouthful of saliva. They were all using their imaginations in their minds.
After Bord brought his daughter back to the room, everyone took turns to wash up.
Then, one by one, they casually sat in the living room in their pajamas or shirtless, chatting.
A while later, Bord, who'd put his daughter to sleep, also came out. He seemed much more relaxed now.
Everyone sat in a circle, drinking beer and eating snacks.
"Chen, I really have to thank you this time … Of course, Ms. Sienna, thank you for your efforts too."
"I don't want to talk about this anymore. I'm a doctor. Being a spiritualist is just a part-time job."
"If that's a part-time job, then what's a professional witch like me?"
"Are you a witch?" Fali looked at Sienna, her eyes shining.
"Yes. This is my name card. If you need to do something like exorcism or summoning ancestors, you can contact me. Oh, I also sell magic potions." Sienna immediately took out a name card and handed it to Fali. "Or divination? I can help you contact a fortune-teller."
"Do you teach magic? I want to learn magic too. "
"I can't. You don't have the talent."
"Chen, can you check my daughter's body? I'm worried that she'll have some side effects. "
"I can check her body, but if it's a psychological injury, I can't do anything. I'm not a psychiatrist. Also, I'll charge for it."
"Err, how much does it cost? I just lost my job recently … "
"If it's just a checkup, one hundred dollars. Also, I only take cash and there won't be any receipts. I don't have a medical license."
"Chen, you're an illegal doctor?" David asked in surprise.
"What? Are you going to arrest me?"
"Please, why would I arrest you? You're not in my jurisdiction anyway." David rolled his eyes.
"A hundred dollars for a checkup? That expensive?"
