Villa (belonging to Wu Wen).

The maids were unable to sleep all night. Whenever they closed their eyes, the Faceless Man appeared in their minds. Even their soft, comfortable bedding seemed to turn into writhing Flesh Fibers.

Yet they did not dare leave the villa without permission. They could only endure the night and wait until tomorrow.

Knock, knock~

The sudden knocking nearly made the maids scream.

But the person who pushed open the door was Wu Wen.

However, compared to the mistress they had known before, the Wu Wen before them was somewhat different.

She was younger, more slender, more radiant, and carried an indescribable sense of strangeness—especially those fishlike eyes that blinked sideways.

"If you can't sleep, stay in the villa next door for a while. Just come back as usual during the day."

"Thank you, Mistress."

After all the maids had withdrawn, Wu Wen turned and headed upstairs. The Faceless Man was standing in the corner by the entrance, silently watching everything.

"Brother, your hostility is a little too strong. They've been with me for a long time. Both physically and mentally, they've completely submitted to me. They handle many things for me.

"You ate tonight's food too, didn't you? And the sheets in your room, the furniture arrangements—they were all taken care of by them."

The Faceless Man still could not speak, seemingly communicating through some unconventional means.

"Come on~ They really are weak, and their minds are indeed easily invaded. But Vortex Town is the safest place in the Corner System. As soon as an intruder arrives, Teacher Guo will know immediately.

"Alright, alright, I won't argue with you! I'm going to sleep.

"Anyway, they'll come over during the day to take care of the housework. At night, they can stay outside."

Only then did
