"Hahaha... I'm going to die laughing!"
"Soul-Calling Ghost: Big Brother, these two beat me up, but I dare not say!"
"It's confirmed! These two are Xu Nan and the stunningly beautiful maid!"
At this point, the viewers were completely certain.
Lao Si was a disguise by the stunningly beautiful maid.
The real Lao Si, like the female college student Su Meng last time, had likely been lured elsewhere.
Once their identities were confirmed, everyone became a little excited.
This maid sure knew how to play!
"If you want to ask who has the best acting skills, go to the underworld and find Maid Mei Mei!"
"The acting department is learning—you can't tell it's acting at all!"
"Hahaha... I feel like Nan Nan is being led astray~"
...
"By the way, why did that fierce ghost take a dislike to him?"
Listening to the Grave Mound Ghost's words, the Soul-Calling Ghost felt even more aggrieved.
It also wanted to know why, among so many ghosts in the organization, these two specifically targeted it. They beat it up without a word.
It was a complete disregard for ghost rights.
Hearing this, the mechanical ball's honest face showed a hint of confusion.
"I don't know either. When we arrived, they were already fighting."
He then glanced at the Soul-Calling Ghost, "Perhaps it's because it looks easy to bully?"
Soul-Calling Ghost: "???"
Just because of this?
They beat it up???
The Grave Mound Ghost couldn't help but look at its subordinate.
The aggrieved look, daring not to speak out, indeed made it seem easy to bully.
The Grave Mound Ghost nodded in agreement and even instructed the Soul-Calling Ghost:
"Put on a fierce look in the future. As a ghost, you should have the demeanor of a ghost, don't be so weak and pathetic."
Soul-Calling Ghost: "...Oh."
It was truly suffering in silence, with bitterness it couldn't express.
Then, to the stunned gaze of the Soul-Calling Ghost and the surprised look of Xu Nan,
The mechanical ball directly stated its purpose to the Grave Mound Ghost.
It said that the Soul-Calling Ghost had recommended them to join the organization, and they wanted to contribute to the organization.
Even more so, they wanted to do great things with the organization!
After hearing this, the Grave Mound Ghost was immediately moved by the mechanical ball's enthusiasm.
He made the decision, "Alright! The organization welcomes your joining!"
"However, joining the organization requires some sincerity."
The mechanical ball said honestly, "Brother Fen, our sincerity is definitely enough!"
The Grave Mound Ghost nodded, "In a couple of days, you'll bring back a soul, and then you'll officially join the organization."
"Today, I'll take you around to get acquainted, so that when we meet on the road, there won't be any conflicts."
The mechanical ball's eyes lit up, filled with admiration and anticipation:
"Brother! Big Brother! You're too good to us!"
"From now on, you are our big brother!"
As he spoke, he pulled Xu Nan's shoulder.
Xu Nan cooperatively called out, "Big Brother."
The Grave Mound Ghost was quite pleased with this.
He nodded with a proper air and declared, "From now on, I'll cover this area for you!"
Mechanical Ball: "Thank you, Big Brother!"
Xu Nan: "...Thank you, Big Brother."
"???"
The Soul-Calling Ghost looked at the three ghosts acting like brothers and suddenly felt like it had walked onto the wrong set.
What was all this?
Were those two planning to infiltrate the organization?
If they had told it earlier, it would have been fine. Why did they have to beat it up?
And Brother Fen... we were the first brothers to meet!
Why did its status drop so suddenly??
...
"Soul-Calling Ghost: In the end, I was betrayed."
"This development is beyond my expectations, amazing!"
"Nan Nan's expression of 'I'm cooperating with your act' is hilarious hahaha..."
The viewers in the live stream, whether lying in their beds or still at work,
Seized their break time to catch a glimpse.
They didn't want to miss a single moment.
They had never seen such a funny ghost.
Telling their descendants about this would be enough for them to brag about for a lifetime.
"I almost believed what this stunningly beautiful maid said."
"6666, infiltrating the enemy from within! This move is brilliant!"
"Wuwuwu, I still want to know, has the Eighteenth Hall started having beauties since then?"
Even now, many viewers didn't believe it.
That stunningly beautiful maid was transformed from the mechanical ball.
The difference in body shape and aesthetic was too great.
According to the aesthetics of mechanical bodies, it should be...
Something like a body covered in metal, right?
Moreover, from what they could see so far.
This stunningly beautiful maid was more like a genuine ghost.
Look at the transformation, the melting of the body, the clean way of losing a head.
It was exactly like the female ghosts in their minds.
—Beautiful and terrifying.
Making people love and fear them.
...
Amidst the viewers' laughter and speculation,
In the live stream,
Under the mechanical ball's (deceptive) admiration, the Grave Mound Ghost prepared and set off with everyone.
However, before setting off, the Grave Mound Ghost took out three black hoods.
"One for each ghost, put them on."
The Soul-Calling Ghost was already accustomed to it and obediently put it on.
The mechanical ball didn't rush to put it on.
Looking at the hood, its expression was not good.
"Does Big Brother not trust us? If that's the case, we won't go. There's no need for this."
Upon hearing this, Xu Nan's perception of the mechanical ball was once again refreshed.
He even wondered if this was really the mechanical ball.
Had it been swapped?
However, this thought flashed by quickly.
Thinking about it carefully, although the mechanical ball usually looked a bit dull and didn't understand the human world much.
It also had its own ideas.
And...
Xu Nan subtly glanced at the mechanical ball.
This guy had read a lot of strange books. At this moment, it was very likely...
Practicing lines.
Imitation, for mechanical bodies, should be a major characteristic.
"What are you saying?"
The Grave Mound Ghost explained, "Did Soul-Calling little brother not tell you? Only by becoming an internal member can you know the way to the organization."
"You are currently only external members, so you can only go with your heads covered."
Hearing this, the mechanical ball's honest and simple face immediately broke into a smile, and it said with a chuckle:
"Look at my brain, I thought we weren't making Big Brother proud."
"Big Brother, let's go now."
As he spoke, he put on the hood neatly.
Xu Nan also silently put on the hood.
Led by the Grave Mound Ghost, they wound their way through, heading somewhere unknown.
The hood seemed to block their senses.
Xu Nan could only feel the wind around them sometimes rushing, sometimes calm.
Sometimes he could feel a hint of coolness.
He moved his fingers, and specks of powder fell from his fingertips.
The powder drifted away with the wind, without any obvious scent.
Unless one looked closely with a magnifying glass, it was hard to notice.
But if one brought out a small mouse that matched this powder, they could accurately track the powder's whereabouts.
...
"This... isn't this just going in circles?"
"Is he fooling ghosts?"
"This organization is really... [secretive]."
Xu Nan and the mechanical ball couldn't see.
But the viewers in the live stream, through the broadcast, could see the entire route clearly.
This Grave Mound Ghost wasn't actually traveling, but clearly leading Xu Nan and the others in circles nearby.
From left to right, from top to bottom.
It covered all the nearby areas.
As if they had traveled a long way.
Most of Xu Nan's powder was scattered in one place.
Just when everyone thought the Grave Mound Ghost would continue going in circles.
Its figure suddenly stopped, and it drilled into the ground.
...
