Before he could even speak, Paimon's voice rang out from outside the Hall of Rebirth.

"Hu Tao, let's play!"

As soon as Hu Tao looked up, she saw Paimon waving at them. Beside Paimon, Fang Qiu also stood gracefully at the door, waving at her with a light smile.

Beside Fang Qiu was the traveler.

"Why are you here?"

Hu Tao's eyes lit up, she put down the book and stood up.

"Because Fang Qiu's keyhole was blocked."

Paimon said.

"Is the keyhole blocked?"

Hu Tao was taken aback.

"Yes, so she can't go home now, and we have nowhere to stay, so we came to Wangshengtang to stay for one night."

Paimon said.

After saying that, she hesitated for a moment and said, "You don't mean to take over our Mora, do you?"

"How could that be?"

Walnut waved her hand, squinted her eyes, and said, "But Paimon, are you interested in coffin beds? I'm planning to discuss a collaboration bed with a furniture store, Wangshengtang. How about it? Sounds very appealing, right?"

"What's so appealing about it!"

Paimon stamped his foot and said.

"Summer is here, and with the weather getting hot, don't you just want to cool off?"

Hu Tao said with a smile.

"Yeah, what's the connection?"

Paimon tilted his head, somewhat puzzled.

"Although I don't think there's anything to be afraid of about spirits, most people would feel a chill down their backs if they slept in a coffin at night, right? Doesn't this help to cool you down?"

Hu Tao puffed out her chest and said.

"Although what you said seems to make a lot of sense, something still feels off."

Paimon scratched his head, looking somewhat troubled.

"Alright, alright, stop teasing Paimon."

Fang Qiu smiled gently and said, "I'll leave it to you tonight."

"no problem."

Hu Tao chuckled and patted her chest, then invited them to sit down and asked, "By the way, do you have any leads on the matter of your keyhole being blocked? Tell me about it."

So Fang Qiu told Hu Tao everything that had happened that night.

"I see."

Hu Tao nodded thoughtfully, then squinted and said, "Don't worry, leave this to me."

"We want to help too."

Paimon stepped forward.

"Alright, I'll leave this to you, Scout Paimon. Go and stand guard at Fang Qiu's gate now!"

"Hu Tao gave the order."

"No problem! And what about you guys?"

Paimon asked.

"We'll be waiting for you to bring back the criminal from the Hall of Rebirth."

Ying said.

"Hey! You guys are making fun of me again!"

Paimon stomped his foot, frowned, and said, "I'm going to get angry."

"Let's talk about this tomorrow. It might just be a child's prank."

Fang Qiu said with a smile.

In her past life, she had seen a naughty child block someone's keyhole and be caught red-handed by the resident.

The resident threatened to call the police, which scared the two unruly children so much that they cried.

In the end, the parents had to pay a considerable amount of money to settle the matter.

Afterwards, she heard the child's pitiful cries coming from the child's house.

"Ah."

Walnut nodded.

"Speaking of which, Hu Tao, are you also watching 'Tsuki ga Kirei'?"

Paimon noticed that Hu Tao had a copy of "The Moon Is Beautiful" next to her, and that Yi Guan, who was sitting not far away, was also holding a copy of "The Moon Is Beautiful," so he asked her a question.

"Yes, Miss Fang Qiu's book is so sweet. I even felt a little flutter in my heart after reading it. So, the head of the hall and I were just talking about whether the head of the hall has someone he likes."

"The young lady said with a smile."

"So, does it exist or not?"

Upon hearing what Yi Guan said, Paimon immediately became interested and asked with shining eyes.

Ying also cast a glance at them.

Hu Tao's face flushed red instantly. She subconsciously glanced at Fang Qiu and saw that Fang Qiu, who was holding a teacup, stopped drinking tea and turned her gaze to her.

Hu Tao felt her face turn even redder.

Just as she was feeling a little awkward, the young maidservant said with a smile, "The head of the hall doesn't have a man she likes."

A woman may not have a man she likes, but that doesn't necessarily apply to her.

The young maidservant glanced at Fang Qiu ambiguously, then at Hu Tao mischievously, before sensing Hu Tao's dangerous gaze.

Yi Guan Xiaomei quickly stood up and said, "By the way, Mr. Zhongli bought some good tea the other day. I'll go get it and serve it to the traveler Paimon and Miss Fang Qiu."

With that, she hurriedly left.

"Ahem, by the way, have you guys eaten?"

Hu Tao cleared her throat and asked.

"I've eaten, but I feel like I could eat some more."

Paimon said.

"Paimon, be careful, it might explode if you eat too much."

Ying said.

"Hey! You've used that phrase so many times already."

Paimon rolled his eyes at Ying and said.

Fang Qiu picked up her teacup, took a sip, and felt a sense of relief when she heard that Hu Tao didn't have a man she liked.

"Fang Qiu, what about you?"

Just as Fang Qiu was lost in thought, Paimon's voice rang in her ears.
