It Was Boss Sheqing Who Freed Us from Oppression!

The toilet lights were on, and overall it was brighter than the main hall outside.

The dark gold walls were as luxurious as the main hall, but at this moment, due to the intimidation of the man in red, everyone had fled, and the place was now silent.

The ghost system in this Absurd World is based on blue, red, black, white, and gray. Many of these ghosts possess physical forms, so the idea that ghosts also need to use the toilet is somewhat plausible. Yu Xing gave up on making fun of it.

He squinted, closed the toilet door behind him, and walked towards the last stall.

As the person responsible for keeping Zhao Yijiu's attention focused on the ghosts, he naturally had to observe the movements of all the ghosts within his line of sight before making any move.

For example--

In what appears to be a ghost-free toilet, there's a cowardly ghost in gray clothes hiding there.

How cowardly was this ghost? Just as Yu Xing's curse power "accidentally" killed several discouraged Ghost and a white-shirt Ghost, it had just come out of the toilet and screamed upon seeing the scene.

The screams mingled with the agonizing cries of the dying ghosts, but it was enough to catch Yu Xing's attention.

After calling out, it hurriedly ran back to the toilet, as if the red clothes were its greatest fear. Yu Xing didn't see it come out again, so she knew it must still be in the toilet.

Yes, it's kind of silly and cute. It only closed the door to the last cubicle, while the other cubicles were open since no ghosts were using them.

Yu Xing was very pleased with this natural opportunity, while this timid and discouraged Ghost...

Perhaps we can make good use of it.

He stopped outside the cubicle, bent his fingers, tapped the door with his knuckles, and knocked twice, neither too hard nor too softly.

A frantic "thump" came from inside the door, like a trash can being overturned.

Immediately afterwards, a desperate sob rang out from behind the cubicle.

Yu Xing: "Tsk tsk tsk."

He seems like a ghost from a horror movie wandering around the toilet, while the ghost inside the stall looks like someone too scared to make a sound.

This role reversal is just too ridiculous.

Suddenly, a wicked sense of amusement welled up inside Yu Xing. A smirk played on her lips as she asked in a sinister tone, "Is there a ghost here?"

There was silence inside for a long while.

"Knock knock knock."

He knocked on the door again at the same intervals, and could almost imagine a trembling figure huddled inside.

"If there are no ghosts... I'll come in." Yu Xing grasped the small doorknob and heard a faint sobbing sound coming from inside.

Okay, I'm scared to tears.

"Hehe." Yu Xing chuckled wickedly, and with a little force, the door was destroyed. He deftly pulled the door open and looked inside.

A discouraged Ghost was pressed against the wall, face inward, covering its mouth with its hands to stifle its voice. Its gray clothes trembled with the sound of the door opening, and every now and then a few sorrowful sobs peeked out from between its fingers.

A pale finger touched its shoulder, and the discouraged Ghost trembled, collapsing to the ground with a thud. It turned and wailed, "Red-robed Lord, please don't kill me! Waaaaah..."

Its mask was very solid, without any facial features, and looked like a black vortex.

As for the tears, all that could be seen was wailing, not actual tears.

But the fear was very real, and it was quite a challenge for it, making it tremble like a sieve.

"They're all ghosts, what are you afraid of?" Yu Xing asked.

The discouraged Ghost said, "I'm already a ghost; if I die again, my soul will be completely destroyed!"

Yu Xing: Very good, logical and well-organized.

He looked down at the discouraged Ghost on the ground, still very puzzled. "I'm not the only red-clothed ghost. Other ghosts hang around in front of red-clothed ghosts every day and nothing happens to them, right? Why are you so afraid? What have you done wrong?"

"Waaah..." Upon hearing this, the discouraged Ghost cried sadly for about ten seconds before choking out, "I didn't... I didn't do anything wrong, but you... you were too cruel, I don't want to die..."

Yu Xing raised an eyebrow.

"Among the ghosts you killed were me and my girlfriend, sob sob sob..."

Is that really the reason?

It's clearly a sad event, so please forgive Yu Xing, the vicious culprit, for not being able to feel sad.

Did he go to the bathroom and find his girlfriend's ghost had vanished into thin air, causing him to experience immense fear, to the point that he developed a complete dread of women in red?

It thinks all people in red are thugs who would kill ghosts at the slightest provocation, so it wants to hide and avoid being noticed by them.

The reason... Yu Xing's hand twitched inside his wide sleeve, but he didn't ask any further questions. He simply said in a sinister tone, "If you cry again, you'll lose your tongue."

The discouraged Ghost immediately stopped making a sound and looked up at Yu Xing. Although there wasn't a single hole in the mask, Yu Xing could still feel a terrified gaze through it.

Do you want to avenge your girlfriend?

"No! No!" The discouraged Ghost responded naturally, expressing its attitude without even thinking as soon as Yu Xing asked the question.

Do you want to be reduced to ashes?

"Is that even a question?" The discouraged Ghost stammered, "No, I don't want to!"

"Okay, if you don't want to, stand up and talk. I'm tired with my head down." Otherwise, considering the image of the woman in red and the environment of the restroom, Yu Xing herself wanted to lie on the ground to talk, recover her strength, and suppress the aura of the curse.

The discouraged Ghost quickly stood up, almost slipping and falling in the process due to fear.

Yu Xing didn't feel sorry for him at all. She crossed her arms and glanced at him. This ghost was quite tall, about 1.8 meters. If it weren't so timid, it would have some presence. It was much better than those hunched ghosts.

He said, "Now I'll ask you questions, and you answer them. Don't spout useless nonsense, and don't beg for mercy. If your answers are helpful to me, I won't kill you."

"Waaah... okay..." The discouraged Ghost probably wanted to answer immediately, but couldn't hold back her sobs.

Yu Xing hoped it would be more concise and to the point, her voice cold. "How many times have you been to the Sheqing Bar?"

"About fifty times..."

"There's a party every time?"

"Um!"

"You really enjoy coming here?"

This question troubled the discouraged Ghost; it didn't know whether it should like it or not.

This woman in red seems to be a first- Sheqing Bar. I wonder what her impression of the bar is... Is she here for revenge, which is why she disregarded Sheqing Ghost's feelings and started fighting with another woman in red in the bar?

But maybe he's just a Sheqing Ghost who came all the way to the bar specifically to see him.

Oh, that's a difficult question?

Yu Xing's dangerously urging tone brought the discouraged Ghost back to his senses, and he weakly said, "I like it."

"I see. You find the food service activities interesting, so you come every day, right?"

"Yes!" Mentioning this seemed to lift the spirits of the discouraged Ghost considerably. "I'm just a helpless discouraged Ghost, bullied by the white-shirt Ghost every day. Only humans, only humans are weaker than me, can give me a sliver of comfort!"

"I come here every day because of this event. It taught me that I can also instill fear in others. Only Sheqing, Red Robe, and Black Shadow can feel that sense of controlling others' fear. I'm very grateful to Sheqing Ghost Boss; it's because of him that lower-level ghosts are no longer oppressed!"
