Looking at the slightly upturned smile on the left side of his mouth, Haley, who had outstanding observation skills, realized that this wasn't a simple matter!
But when he opened the door and gestured for her to come in, she could only step in.
Why could he open the door without a key? Of course, that was an unimportant detail.
Inside the dark villa, there were only a few faint lights in the distance.
But neither of them was an ordinary person, and they could still see inside clearly.
The furniture was covered in dust, and it was obvious that no one had been here for a long time.
Haley glanced at Luke again. He had just closed the door when he raised his hand to signal for her to continue.
She could only walk to the living room.
There was no one in the lonely living room. The clutter had long been cleared away, and there were only a few large pieces of furniture that looked eerie.
This time, Haley didn't look at Luke. She simply looked around before she walked to the stairs.
The living room and kitchen on the first floor of a large house like this were public areas, where people gathered when there were a lot of people.
The bedroom and lounge upstairs, on the other hand, were personal areas, where most people rested when there weren't many people.
She didn't know what she needed to find here, but she should be able to find the answer as long as she followed the order.
Staring at Haley, who was completely normal, Luke nodded inwardly. The symbiotic body's mental immunity was indeed very strong.
When he entered the door, the system sent him another notification: Unknown negative energy has been detected. Do you accept? Yes/No.
Luke didn't decisively refuse to leave like he had the first time he came here. Instead, he took Haley on a tour of the mansion.
After a tour, Haley stood in the bedroom with a puzzled expression as she observed the room.
Turning her head to look at him, she finally couldn't help but ask, "Is someone secretly living here?"
Luke thought for a moment, then shook his head. "Not really."
After all, this house used to belong to that family.
Haley was still puzzled. "This master bedroom looks like it's always been used. There's not even any dust. But there's no dust in the places we've passed. How did they get in and out? Could it be … "
She looked at the window, and Luke raised his hand to indicate that he could do whatever he wanted.
Haley walked to the window and looked out.
It had been a long time since anyone had lived in this mansion, and no one had taken care of it. The trees in the backyard hadn't been trimmed, and the lush leaves covered a large area.
The night breeze blew past, and the leaves rustled slightly. The faint light outside also became gray and uncertain, making people nervous.
Under the shadow of the trees, it was hard to see the exterior of the house clearly.
She hesitated for a moment, then took turns to open the two windows in the bedroom.
There were obvious traces of dust outside the window, indicating that no one had entered or exited this place.
Haley's mind raced. "Could it be teleportation?"
He had brought her to capture a superpower user. This was a very reasonable speculation, and the possibility was not small.
Luke flashed and jumped out of another window next to her.
Haley was stunned. She awkwardly climbed out of the window and walked a few steps on the wooden eaves outside before jumping onto the grass in the backyard.
The moment she landed, she immediately turned around and looked in the direction Luke was looking at.
Because when he landed, he turned around and was facing the back door of the house.
"Basement?" She was sure.
Luke didn't say anything. He simply nodded and walked to the basement entrance next to the back door.
When they arrived at the entrance and saw that the small door was not locked, Haley was actually a little nervous.
"Go in?" She swallowed a mouthful of saliva. While her heart was thumping, she also felt a strong sense of curiosity and excitement. Goosebumps appeared on her skin.
Luke didn't reply. Instead, he slowly turned his head and looked to their left.
Alarmed, Haley followed his gaze.
Through the shadowy trees on the left, behind a wooden fence dozens of meters away, a thin figure was standing there motionlessly.
Her hair stood on end. Holy sh * t! Was tonight really a ghost story?
If that wasn't the case, she couldn't explain why the figure was standing at the fence in the middle of the night.
It had to be noted that the villa they were in was already unoccupied. Who would run over to the fence in the middle of the night to look in their direction?
Luke suddenly turned around and lightly flew toward the figure.
Haley's body trembled slightly. While she was surprised and afraid, she also felt a huge lump in her body.
As her complicated emotions gradually grew excited, she shuddered as if she had been electrocuted, and her face flushed.
She really liked this kind of unknown and weird thing, and subconsciously had the urge to explore it.
Now that he was with her, it was even more perfect.
Good things always had to be shared with others.
So, was he sharing this wonderful journey with her?
Her mind was working quickly, and she had already started running after them.
However, her movements were a little … strange, since she had just obtained a symbiotic body.
Imagine girls who weren't good at sports running a hundred meters with their hands and feet tied. Haley's movements were very similar.
But she was also very fast. In a few seconds, she caught up to Luke and stood behind him, her eyes glowing as she looked at the figure behind the fence.
It was a skinny old woman in her sixties.
She was wearing a thick purple cardigan and a red and yellow skirt. At first glance, she looked like a normal old lady.
Faced with Luke and Haley, the old lady still had a faint smile on her face, as natural as watching puppies play in the courtyard in the afternoon.
That was very strange.
Luke looked at her for a few seconds, then turned around and said to Haley, "You, hit her."
Haley: "Huh?"
Luke said, "Smash her."
Haley reacted and pounced on the old woman without hesitation. She raised her small fists and punched the old woman's face.
That was because the smile wasn't pleasing to the eye at all. It wasn't as handsome as Joker's smile at all.
The old lady didn't move. She maintained her smile.
The next moment … her face was flattened, and she was sent flying more than ten meters by Haley's explosive punch.
Haley, who had no combat experience, was stunned after the punch. She retracted her fist and sized it up.
She had never thought that she would one day be able to send someone flying more than ten meters away, much less an old lady in her sixties.
Luke's calm voice rang out. "Continue."
Haley: "Huh?"
Was he going to continue? Did he want her to be whipped to death?
She looked at the old lady, only to see that the old lady was wriggling to her feet.
She stared at Haley with a surprised look on her face. "You can hit me?"
Haley didn't know what she meant, but Luke had a rough idea. Before they fought just now, the old lady's mental fluctuations had been getting stronger and stronger.
If Haley had been an ordinary person, she probably would've been affected by this mental attack.
Unfortunately, people with symbiotic bodies didn't have godly skills.
Haley, who was immune to mental skills, wasn't stupid. On the contrary, she was extremely smart.
Thinking quickly, she realized that the old lady wouldn't die so easily, which was why Luke had asked her to continue.
Without hesitation, she lunged at the old lady again and punched her again.
