The expert has arrived.

[This streamer's lock-picking skills are so proficient, is he a legitimate streamer?]

[Just kidding, what do you think my sister Nan made her fortune through?]

What is it?

[Stealing secrets at Madam Bai's house.]

[Hahahaha, this is hilarious! Does Nanxi only appear in suspenseful legal dramas? I still remember the golf-themed anime she starred in with Qiuqiu.]

[Ball Ball: Sports anime, does that mean I'm the ball that gets hit?]

The comments section was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

Nanxi had already opened the door to her parents' room. The room was a bit messy, with bottles of liquor scattered everywhere. Some were empty, some were empty, and some were half-empty.

They even went so far as to smear it on the headboard.

In this room, the only clean spot was the desk.

Nanxi walked straight over and saw a family photo on the desk.

There are five people in the photo. Of course, Nanxi is not in it. The people in the photo are her father, mother, younger brother, and grandmother. In the middle of all the people, there is a tall man, but his face is not clear.

The man's face had been burned with fire, leaving a hole that obscured his true features.

This should be the fifth person in the family.

Could it be someone I'm planning to marry?

Nanxi raised an eyebrow, opened the drawer, and saw a folder inside.

I took it out and looked at it.

Okay, the first one is a receipt.

— Today, Nanxi was purchased for 50000 yuan. The seller is not allowed to take Nanxi away afterward, and Gangjia is not allowed to enter Xingfu Community.

It turns out they were buying and selling their own receipts.

Nanxi continued scrolling down and immediately saw another receipt.

[Marriage certificate of Nanxi and ●●]

I don't know how my parents got this. The marriage certificate is stamped with an official seal, but the characters on the seal are very small and blurry, unlike the official seal of a normal civil affairs bureau. It's hard to read.

There's more surprise in store.

Wow, so Nanxi isn't an adopted daughter at all; they've even got a marriage certificate.

I feel like this isn't the finale. Is there more to come?

[Why are these people, who already live in this community, not villagers from some remote mountain village, still spending money to buy wives? This community looks like a normal one.]

"Right, it sounds really strange if you say it like that."

Nanxi continued scrolling down, wanting to see how far the prize pool had accumulated.

Open the marriage certificate; below is a blank sheet of paper, and at the very top is enlarged black text.

—Death notice.

At this moment, the thought in my mind couldn't hold back any longer: "...The person on this death notice looks like the person who didn't have a face in the family photo just now."

Although there is no face, the clothes and overall feel in the photo are exactly the same, and there is a mole on the right earlobe that proves that the two are the same person.

Nanxi: "..."

Qiuqiu suddenly realized, and looked at the photo more closely: "Your husband!"

"..."

Nanxi took a deep breath and closed her eyes, unwilling to open them.

[Hahaha, your husband!]

[I knew it! Why was this wedding so strange? Why did they say Nanxi was returning as an adopted daughter? And why was there that paper doll? Oh, I see!]

So it turns out Nanxi is going to have a ghost marriage!

There's another surprise! There's actually another surprise!

Wow, if you put it that way, everything makes perfect sense. Today is an auspicious day. The attire outside might be a bit plain for a normal wedding, but it's just right for a ghost marriage.

[Who understands? Qiuqiu's line about your husband really cracked me up.]

Didn't you see Nan Jie's lips twitching?

[Ball King, you should spend less time online.]

【Ha ha ha ha】

Nanxi grabbed the ball and stuffed it into her pocket, stopping him from watching the commotion outside, while she continued flipping through the pages.

"Now that this has already appeared, I'd like to see what else might come out from below."

Below the death certificate was a somewhat old-fashioned piece of paper with a line of text written on it.

—By obtaining someone's hair, blood, and name, and putting these items into a bottle, you can lock that person's soul, leaving them weak and unable to escape.

When Nanxi saw this line of text, her eyes narrowed slightly.

The comments section was filled with shock.

[This whole thing is interconnected, so it turns out this family bought Sister Nan to arrange a ghost marriage for their deceased son, and then they put all sorts of weird things on her.]

[This wasn't originally a skin for Nanxi that was weakened; it turns out the original owner was framed, and the weakened debuff was transferred to Nanxi!]

[Now I understand. I was wondering why the streamers I watched before always entered the dungeon in their own state. I was wondering what happened to Sister Nan this time, and now I know there was a reason!]

This family is wicked!

[If the streamer wants to return to normal, does he need to find the bottle that's locking his soul in?]

[Possibly.]

Nanxi squinted as she studied the object, when suddenly she heard a sound coming from the wall of the room to her left.

"Knock knock!"

The sound was like someone using a cane to tap on the wall.

Nanxi thought for a moment and realized that the person living in the room on the left was her grandmother!

Could this be a reminder from Grandma?

-

the other side.

At that moment, Mom was still struggling to cut pieces of meat in the hallway.

The thought of making sure Nanxi was well-fed gave her a burst of energy!

Since there wasn't enough meat this morning, I'll have to cut off more for Nanxi to eat...

What are you doing here?

Suddenly, an annoyed voice came from behind. Mom turned around and saw Dad, who reeked of alcohol. Dad looked at her with disgust, his eyes scrutinizing her: "Didn't I tell you to go out and buy meat this morning? Why are you still here?"

Buying meat refers to their act of cutting meat outside.

Dad glanced at the time.

It's already 5 p.m., which is my workday, so why is my mom still outside?

Seeing that fierce expression, the mother couldn't help but flinch, but still managed to explain, "I already went out to buy meat this morning, but Nanxi has a really good appetite, and she ate all the meat in one go, so I had to go out to buy meat again..."

What?

Dad's expression changed.

He knew exactly how much meat his mother would bring back every time she went out, yet Nanxi ate it all in one go.

Dad seemed to have thought of something, his face turned extremely ugly, he strode to the door and flung it open.

Inside the living room.

Nanxi sat obediently on the sofa, coughed lightly twice with a pale face, but still looked over obediently.

"Dad, are you off work?"
