Excessive ferocity due to caution

After washing up, everyone went to the manor's dressing room to choose suitable clothes for themselves.

At this moment, Huang Gou, the hunched and thin man from the entertainment company, was now deathly pale, his whole body drenched in cold sweat.

He certainly knows just how realistic this world is.

He has an endless supply of women outside, but that's not because these women actually like him.

Anyone with a sound sense of aesthetics would never fall in love with his appearance.

At this moment, Huang Gou knew that his chances of surviving the female ghost were much lower than those of the others!

But he naturally refused to accept his fate and chose a tailcoat that he considered very tasteful, and put it on.

The man who was initially not very confident saw Huang Gou's appearance and immediately gave him a disdainful look and sneered.

He thought to himself that as long as he took the interview after Huang Gou, the comparison would greatly increase his chances of survival!

Many people, being shrewd, chose red.

Because they saw that the female ghost's skirt was red, which meant that the female ghost liked the color red.

Finally, the trial participants, all dressed smartly, arrived at a room in the upper echelons of the manor, led by the half-headed butler.

"You can line up yourselves and then go into the lady of the house's room one by one for the interview."

The butler said this with a blank expression.

A commotion broke out among the crowd.

However, they still quickly chose their own order and position according to their own ideas.

Zhao Yi was last.

In any election or competitive sport, the final position is always the most difficult to hold.

After the previous evaluations, the "judges" were now experiencing some aesthetic fatigue, and their mood was no longer as calm and expectant as it had been at the beginning.

Therefore, the last person... is the most dangerous!

These people originally wanted Zhao Yi dead, so naturally they wouldn't give him the front seats.

Zhao Yi did not compete for it.

The crowd lined up, and the first person took a deep breath, walked with a V-shaped gait, and arrived outside the female ghost's house, gently knocking on the door.

Boom!

He knocked twice.

"Please come in."

The female ghost's voice, tinged with a hint of languor, drifted over.

The man pushed open the door and went into the room.

A faint floral fragrance wafted from the room, bathing the room in a soft pink hue.

The door closed.

Looking at his pure red clothes and the many bright red decorations in the room, the man felt reassured!

He considered himself quite handsome among men, and now that he had figured out the female ghost's preferences, he figured surviving shouldn't be a problem...

With this in mind, the man walked deeper into the room, rounded the corner of the small corridor behind the entrance, and arrived at the hall.

Upon entering the hall, he immediately stopped in his tracks.

Before her eyes, the female ghost had changed into a red and white witch's robe, her jade legs lightly crossed, her posture flirtatious yet exuding a charm from the bone, her fingertips twirling her soft hair.

Upon seeing the man, she raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Why are you wearing so red?"

The man gave what he considered a gentlemanly smile.

"Because...you like red."

The female ghost said lazily:

"You're quite observant."

"You used to lick women all the time, didn't you?"

The man slowly sat down opposite the woman, his expression carrying a hint of superiority.

"For a man like me, it's too easy to find women outside."

"For me, only a woman as beautiful as you is worth 'hunting'."

The female ghost's tone rose slightly:

"Women...are they your prey?"

The man's smile became increasingly elegant and noble.

"No."

"Only you are."

"They... are just pigs and sheep in the pen."

The female ghost also laughed.

Her beauty was so unreal, like a painting.

Upon seeing her smile, the man was slightly lost in thought.

"You are very charming."

The female ghost praised.

"But I don't like it."

She slightly raised her fingertips, and all the nobility and elegance on the man's face vanished.

...

A moment later.

The door opened, and a faint fragrance wafted out, mingled with a strong smell of blood.

"Next."

"The butler called out."

The second trial participant smelled the blood and immediately knew that the first person had been killed.

He felt a sense of unease.

The guy in front of him, with such outstanding looks and temperament, didn't survive. Doesn't that mean he's in grave danger?

Feeling uncertain, he went inside.

The people waiting behind fell silent; the atmosphere was extremely tense.

Someone approached Zhao Yi.

I have a small, broken stone in my hand, with a sharp surface.

Swish!

When he was about three steps away from Zhao Yi, he suddenly moved, brandishing the weapon in his hand, intending to pierce Zhao Yi's throat artery!

fast!

quasi!

ruthless!

Even after all his power was sealed, he still displayed extremely exquisite close-combat assassination skills!

The person who made the move had a ferocious expression, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

The life of this person in front of me is worth a golden secret manual!

However, Zhao Yi, seemingly completely unprepared, suddenly bent down, his arm brushing past his elbow, and his hand pressing on his shoulder joint!

With a push of the legs, the power is transferred to the hands, and then the force is pressed down hard!

Zhao Yi immediately dislocated the man's arm that was holding the pebble!

He screamed in agony as Zhao Yi grabbed his arm that was holding the pebble and placed it across his neck!

"Help me!!"

The man who attempted to assassinate Zhao Yi called for help from his companions.

However, everyone present looked at each other, and no one dared to step forward!

If they were outside, they would go up.

But now, there are too many concerns!

Firstly, their power was sealed, and secondly, they were unsure whether their actions would displease the female ghost!

"How pitiful..."

Zhao Yi laughed and mocked.

Just as the sharp stones were about to slice across his neck, Zhao Yi suddenly remembered something and stopped.

He looked at his pristine white shirt and threw away the pebbles.

Just when the assassin thought he had escaped, Zhao Yi suddenly grabbed his head.

"Your blood is too dirty; it will look terrible on my clothes."

"Let's choose a quick and painless way to die..."

The assassin in her arms struggled frantically, but it was all in vain!

There was a "click" sound.

His struggling body stopped, his neck twisted into an eerie angle.

He collapsed onto the ground like a lump of mud.

"Zhao Yi, everyone here is a candidate for the mistress of the house. You have no right to decide the life or death of others!"

"That's right! You killed people indiscriminately in front of the mistress's door, where did you place her dignity?"

"Woof! Woof woof!! Woof woof woof!!!"

These people verbally attacked Zhao Yi, attempting to use the female ghost's name to get the ghost butler next to him to kill Zhao Yi.

However, despite their barking for a long time, the butler with only half a head remained motionless.

Just then, the door to the female ghost's room opened.

An even stronger smell of blood...

Even more... eerily empty.
