Ghost Loli

"Do you have any more candy? I can buy it from you with Ghost Coins."

The Girl Ghost spoke with her chin raised.

In response, Lin Luo took out a box of chocolates and handed it over.

"Want to try some?"

The Girl Ghost had clearly lost her memories after death and forgotten what chocolate tasted like.

But once she tore open the wrapper and started nibbling, the rich sweetness made her narrow her Ghost Eyes in delight.

Sweets really were easy to get hooked on.

"You're pretty decent. Want to be my lackey?"

The Girl Ghost patted Lin Luo on the shoulder, acting like a seasoned elder.

Lin Luo's mouth twitched at her words. He had no interest in running around with a Ghost Loli. Rather than waste time here, he would be better off finding the Drunkard Ghost and forming a contract as soon as possible.

Then he could become a prestigious Ghost Tamer in one fell swoop!

"I'm not fortunate enough for that. I'm not qualified to be your lackey."

Lin Luo's polite refusal.

Made the Ghost Loli pout, clearly displeased.

Fortunately, she did not force the issue. Instead, she held out her hand and asked for more sweets.

"Got any more chocolate?"

"I'm out. I'll need to buy some more."

Lin Luo was not lying; he told her the truth.

The Ghost Loli had already eaten all the snacks the two Chef Ghosts had given him.

"Then hurry up and buy some."

As she spoke, the Ghost Loli tossed Lin Luo a thick stack of Ghost Coins.

Her lavish spending left Lin Luo staring in amazement.

That thick stack had to be worth tens of thousands of Ghost Coins at least.

Nine out of ten lolis were rich.

That saying really was true.

"Sure, but I need to find the Drunkard Ghost first. I'll buy them for you once I'm done."

Lin Luo put away the Ghost Coins as he spoke to the Ghost Loli.

"You're too late. Uncle Drunkard Ghost already left in the elevator."

The Ghost Loli's reply left Lin Luo deeply disappointed.

That Drunkard Ghost really was hard to track down.

"You know the Drunkard Ghost?"

"Yeah. Uncle Drunkard Ghost is pretty strong, but he always buys booze on credit. His reputation is in the gutter."

Even the Ghost Loli was speechless when it came to the Drunkard Ghost.

To be that obsessed with alcohol.

The Drunkard Ghost really was ridiculous.

"Then do you know where he went?"

"All I know is that he left Yellow Springs Hospital to beg for booze somewhere else. He won't be back for a few days."

The Ghost Loli's words made Lin Luo's heart sink completely.

He had already spent four days at Yellow Springs Hospital.

The seven-day deadline was fast approaching.

If he failed to encounter the Drunkard Ghost in the next three days.

He would miss his chance to sign a contract with him.

But Lin Luo could not bear to give up just like that and sign a contract with another ghost.

"All right, I've told you everything I know. Now you have to take me to buy sweets."

The Ghost Loli did not care how Lin Luo felt. Food was all she had on her mind.

"All right."

Lin Luo nodded as he answered.

Lin Luo knew the Ghost Loli had powerful backing. If he could use sweets to get closer to her, he had everything to gain and nothing to lose.

Afterward, Lin Luo and the Ghost Loli left the Underground Second Floor and made their way to the cafeteria.

Along the way.

Lin Luo encountered quite a few ghosts blocking their path.

But the moment they noticed the Ghost Loli, every one of them fled in terror without daring to make a sound.

"What a bunch of cowardly little ghosts."

The Ghost Loli planted her hands on her hips and snorted indignantly.

In the past, any ghost she encountered would become the target of the Ghost Loli's games.

At best, they suffered severe injuries. At worst, she pulled out their souls and snuffed them out.

As delicate and adorable as the Ghost Loli looked, she was utterly ruthless once she struck.

Moreover, the Ghost Loli's terrifying backing made the ghosts blocking their path fear her all the more.

They wished they could give her the widest berth possible.

With no ghosts getting in his way, Lin Luo reached the hospital cafeteria without any trouble.

"I'd like to buy some candy and pastries from you two."

Lin Luo spoke to the two Chef Ghosts.

But in response, the two Chef Ghosts readily gave him a huge pile of sweets.

The Ghost Loli beside him stared in amazement. Ghosts had always regarded humans with disgust.

She had never seen ghosts treat a human so warmly.

This guy really is something.

The Ghost Loli's eyes lit up, and she wanted to make Lin Luo her underling even more.

That way, she could enjoy all the sweets she wanted.

"Here you go."

Lin Luo gave all the sweets to the Ghost Loli.

The Ghost Loli grinned from ear to ear and patted Lin Luo's shoulder approvingly.

"You know how things work. Not bad."

That praise, delivered with the air of a seasoned elder, left Lin Luo exasperated.

"Thanks for the compliment. If there's nothing else, I'll head back and rest."

Not wanting to deal with the Ghost Loli, Lin Luo yawned and returned to the Dormitory Building.

To his dismay, the Ghost Loli followed him.

She even entered Lin Luo's dorm room without the slightest hesitation.

"I'm going to sleep."

Lin Luo's mouth twitched. If he could beat the Ghost Loli in a fight, he would have kicked this little tagalong out.

"You gave me candy, so I'll return the favor by being your personal bodyguard."

The Ghost Loli acted as though this was only natural, but her words left Lin Luo utterly speechless.

The Dormitory Building was the safest place in Yellow Springs Hospital.

Being around this Ghost Loli.

Was the real danger!

"No need. It's safe here."

The Ghost Loli ignored Lin Luo's polite refusal entirely and sprawled on his bed with all four limbs in the air.

"This bed's pretty comfy."

The Ghost Loli gave a contented yawn.

Lin Luo was utterly speechless at the sight. The Ghost Loli had decided to latch onto him.

Since he could not get rid of her.

Lin Luo did not bother wasting his energy and went into the bathroom instead.

After soaking in a hot bath, Lin Luo took some bedding and made himself a bed on the floor.

Seeing that Lin Luo had not thrown her out, the Ghost Loli lying on his bed revealed an eerie smile.

As far as she was concerned, showing off a little more of her strength would surely impress Lin Luo enough to make him her lackey.

Lin Luo had no interest in guessing what the Ghost Loli was plotting. He simply rested and caught up on sleep.

Early the next morning, Lin Luo woke up on time.

After a quick wash, he went to the cafeteria to enjoy a hearty breakfast.

To Lin Luo's surprise, the Ghost Loli insisted on coming along, yawning as she went.

"It's so early. Do you really have to get up at this hour?"

The Ghost Loli gave Lin Luo a resentful look as she spoke.

Her words made Lin Luo's mouth twitch. He was not here to enjoy himself.

One mistake at this job could cost him his head at any moment.

A basic mistake like oversleeping and showing up late.

Unless someone had completely lost their mind.

They would never do such a thing.

"If you're sleepy, go back and rest."

Lin Luo took a bite of bread, wishing desperately that the Ghost Loli would leave.

If she caused him to make a mistake, he would pay dearly for it.

"No way! If I ran away now, wouldn't that make me a disloyal friend?!"

The Ghost Loli slammed her hand hard against the table, looking fierce.

Eerie patterns spread through her red Ghost Eyes.

Sitting nearby, Lin Luo felt an inexplicable pressure bearing down on him.

This Ghost Loli really was absurdly powerful!
