Peninsula: I'm being supported by a top idol.

Chapter 101 JYP Haunted Incident [Donated by Panda Eating Tomatoes]

【It works! Of course it works! If it doesn't work, you don't have to pay!】

Cui Shi'an replied to the message quickly.

[ITZY is the best, Yoona is the most beautiful] — [Oh.]

Oh? Cui Shi'an didn't want to miss this opportunity, and replied enthusiastically:

Is there anything unusual about your family members? You can tell me in detail, and I'll help you analyze the situation.

[ITZY is the best, Yoona is the most beautiful] — [They're not family, it just feels like I'm being haunted by a ghost.]

A bound spirit? Cui Shi'an immediately showed disappointment. This kind of thing was too easy to deal with, and there was no need to even perform a ritual.

The problem is that without performing rituals, customers can't feel your dedication, so charging a fee is naturally out of the question.

It's not good to ask for an exorbitant amount.

[So what exactly happened? Did the earth spirit harm you? Was it serious?]

[ITZY is the best, Yoona is the most beautiful]—

It's not too serious, but I always trip over it whenever I pass by. I tripped again today and almost hit my face. A senior colleague said it's because of a local spirit; many seniors have tripped over it and gotten injured.

That must have been a long time ago, right?

[ITZY is the best, Yoona is the most beautiful] — [It's been many years.]

Cui Shi'an then asked, "Hasn't the company consulted a shaman?"

[ITZY is the best, and Youna is the most beautiful] 1 [No, actually, similar situations occurred in the company's original building, and they still happened after we moved here. But the president said that earthbound spirits can bring good fortune to the company and doesn't allow us to hire a shaman.]

Not only did Choi Si-an laugh, but even Hara, who was watching the commotion from behind, laughed: "This is the first time I've ever heard of earthbound spirits bringing good fortune. I guess their president doesn't know much. Earthbound spirits are the best thing to deal with as soon as possible. If you drag it out for too long, it will have a bad influence on the surrounding magnetic field, and in severe cases, it can even affect the health of the living."

Cui Shi'an strongly agrees with this statement.

Through his previous on-site experience, he discovered that if there were earthbound spirits around, his skin would feel sticky and damp, which was quite uncomfortable.

Don't believe those claims. A geomancer is a geomancer; their ecosystem is different from humans. They might harm you or play pranks, but they need nutrients to survive. If those nutrients run out, they might even try to kill you. In your company's case, it's likely that some item was taken during the move, and the geomancer is probably attached to that item.

"Wow~ You can even apply what you've learned to other situations now?" Hara patted his shoulder, looking very pleased. "Now I'm relieved. Hang in there!"

"Are you leaving?" Cui Shi'an asked, noticing that she seemed to be about to depart.

"What? You want me to stay for dinner? Sure~"

"Hey, Kenchana~" Cui Shi'an chuckled dryly; he couldn't afford to hire such a big eater.

"Shout." The girl rolled her eyes and floated out of the window.

Just then, another message came back: "So—I want to get rid of it without anyone noticing, is there any way?"

Cui Shi'an's spirits lifted, and he did it without anyone noticing?

That's easy, I can just take care of it myself!

Even a tiny earthbound spirit would run far away immediately upon seeing a killing general like him.

Sure, what's the address?

[ITZY is the best, Yoona is the most beautiful] — [In the city cave.]

Just as Cui Shi'an was about to pack his things and leave, he was stunned. Chengnei Cave? Isn't that on the other side of the river?

this----

[ITZY is the best, Yoona is the most beautiful] — [Why aren't you saying anything? Is that not allowed?]

"No—how about this, I'll have that wizard come and take a look first. When do you have time?" he asked.

After all, it's his first order, so he can't just mess it up like this. Besides, the other party is a regular viewer of his live stream and needs his help to get it canceled.

[ITZY is the best, and Yoona is the most beautiful] — [Okay, then let's do it tomorrow afternoon.]

She then sent her an address, which Cui Shi'an forwarded to Duo Ling, telling her to go and take a look the next afternoon.

Upon seeing the message, the shaman girl immediately called to ask if a ritual was needed, and if so, she would call people from the guild.

"No need for rituals. Go and see if there's any way to deal with it. It's probably possessing some kind of object. Once you find that object, just take it out with you, or you can destroy its magnetic field, which should solve the problem."

"Okay, then I'll get ready."

That evening, while having a long phone conversation with his girlfriend, Cui Shi'an casually mentioned the incident as an amusing anecdote.

When Liu Zhimin asked for the specific address, he checked it on his phone and exclaimed in surprise, "Ah! It looks like JYP!"

"Really?" Cui Shi'an was also slightly surprised. He only knew that it was in the inner city cave, but he hadn't checked the specific address.

"Oh! I've heard rumors about their company being haunted before," she said, her voice tinged with gossip. "It's like there's a little boy's ghost who likes to suddenly appear in stairwells or hallways, or sneak up and trip people—this kind of talk has been around for years, and it's quite common among the trainees. But after they moved to the new building, it seems like nobody mentions it anymore. How come there are still these kinds of things?"

She recounted the bits and pieces of rumors she had heard, some true and some false, and finally couldn't help but ask curiously, "But—how did they get in touch with you? Who contacted you? JYP staff?"

"Hey, Liu Zhimin," Cui Shi'an deliberately drawled, "what do you mean? You look down on your boyfriend for being new to the industry and not getting any big clients, right?"

"Hahaha~" A crisp, slightly mischievous laugh came from the other end of the phone. Liu Zhimin rolled around on the bed with her phone in her hand, her two fair feet swinging in the air with delight. "I didn't mean anything by it~ I was just curious. You've only been working with the temple for a short time, your reputation shouldn't have spread that far yet, right? How did I end up here?"

"I was live streaming this afternoon and casually typed 'GG,' and then some netizens sent me private messages."

"Oh~" Liu Zhimin drawled, his interest piqued. "There are people from JYP in your livestream? Who are they? What's their ID?"

"You've probably seen that person who frequently comes to my livestream, whose ID is 【ITZY is the best, Youna is the most beautiful】, whose profile picture is a Shiba Inu, and who's quite generous with gifts, right?"

"Hmph." A soft, slightly ambiguous, coquettish voice came from the phone: "I've never seen you before, and I've never been to your live stream~"

That tone was three parts arrogance and seven parts "I'm hiding something."

"Nee-nee-nee~" Cui Shi'an secretly rolled his eyes, but couldn't help but smile. "Then let's pretend you were never here~"

"Haha~" Her voice was full of laughter: "Oh! Cui Shi'an!"

"what?"

After a brief silence, her soft, slightly nasal voice came through the receiver, like a feather gently brushing against my ear: "—I miss you—"

Those three simple words, like a magical hook, instantly made Cui Shi'an's heart burn, and a surge of heat rushed to the top of his head.

He sat up abruptly in bed, his voice softening unconsciously but carrying a hint of urgency: "Then—should I come find you now?"

"Haha~ No way~" Liu Zhimin's voice became cheerful again: "We just got back from an overseas trip today, the company gave us a holiday, everyone went home to visit their families, I have to go home too, okay~"

Cui Shi'an's enthusiasm was dampened, and with a "thud," he lay back down in disappointment, his voice muffled: "Then—how about tomorrow? Tomorrow night will do, won't it?"

A soft laugh came through the receiver, followed by a deliberately drawn-out, coquettish hum: "You really want to see me that badly?"

Xi—Cui Shi'an sighed inwardly, "What a little vixen who knows how to flirt."

He decided to throw caution to the wind and bluntly stated, "I miss my girlfriend, is there a problem with that?"

"Pfft—" Liu Zhimin chuckled, her voice full of sweetness, "I didn't expect you to be so straightforward~ How come I never noticed before?"

After a few more intimate words, Liu Zhimin abruptly changed the subject, circling back to the earlier topic: "But seriously, that earthbound spirit at JYP—didn't they move out of that old building a long time ago? How come the paranormal events are still going on? Shouldn't earthbound spirits be confined to a fixed place? Could it be something else entirely?"

As she said this, she suddenly suggested, "How about I help you find someone to get some inside information? That might give you more details."

Do you have any friends at JYP?

"Of course~" Liu Zhimin's tone carried a hint of smugness.

"Male or female?" Cui Shi'an blurted out subconsciously.

A teasing question came from the other end of the phone: "What's wrong? Are you jealous?"

"A little," Cui Shi'an honestly admitted.

"Haha~ It's a guy~" she deliberately dragged out the sound.

Cui Shi'an: "————Oh!"

"Just kidding! It's a girl!" Liu Zhimin laughed even harder. "You know Yoona from ITzY, right?"

Her reminder made Cui Shi'an suddenly remember the online friend he had asked for help, which happened to be this name.

Oh my god, could it be that—

However, it's also possible that they are internal staff members.

After all, what idol has nothing better to do than come to his live stream to listen to history?

"I'll just message her and ask her directly. People inside her company definitely know more details than the rumors circulating outside," Liu Zhimin said, seemingly operating his phone.

Cui Shi'an heard a faint, rapid tapping sound coming from her end.

A moment later, she suddenly exclaimed "Huh?"

"What's wrong?"

"She called directly." Liu Zhimin's voice was a little surprised. "Wait a minute, let me answer it."
