"Has it left?"
The three men, Yang Dong among them, emerged from the restroom inside the stone shop.
The shop was pitch-black, so dark they could not see their own hands. It was as if every source of light had vanished. Yet hurried footsteps could vaguely be heard coming from the entrance on the first floor.
It sounded as though an anxious person was pacing back and forth.
Without a doubt.
Whatever was outside had to be an Evil Spirit!
"Just as I thought. Since a supernatural object was once placed in this restroom, it became tainted with its aura. That object also came from the same source as the supernatural entities nearby, so staying inside can effectively conceal us."
Yang Dong raised his head slightly and looked toward the stairs descending from the second floor.
There was a scarlet footprint and droplets of blood on every step. Clearly, the Evil Spirit that had been pounding on the second floor had not only come inside but had also passed by the entrance.
However, after failing to find the three of them, it had left the shop through the entrance on the first floor.
"What do we do now?"
"We can't stay on the second floor, and we can't go to the first floor."
"We don't know when the Evil Spirit will come back in. For now, we may have no choice but to stay in the restroom."
"But that isn't a solution in the long run."
Meng Jian frowned.
Besides, the restroom might not remain safe forever. If an Evil Spirit blocked the door, the three of them would have nowhere to run.
"You noticed it too just now. These ghosts aren't actually that terrifying. At least the three of us can put up a fight when we work together."
