Visitor from Afar 6

Ye Zhao already knew what was knocking, so she naturally didn't peek through the peephole again. But then she remembered that the moment she went outside, those ghostly things would follow her... Wait, she'd been pinned down and unable to move outside just now. Could it have been because those ghostly things were clinging to her back?
