"Please wait a moment."

But Youmu suddenly changed her tone, and her originally fearful eyes immediately became firm:

"I accept your commission. Please give the order, Mr. Chu Bai!"

"...?"

Chu Bai stared blankly at the girl whose expression suddenly changed:

"What's going on? Aren't you afraid of ghosts? Why are you suddenly so stubborn?"

Youmeng's expression was helpless:

"Although unknown ghosts are terrifying, poverty is still more frightening..."

"If we can get a thousand kilograms of food coupons, Baiyulou's financial crisis can be alleviated."

"So forget about ghosts. Even if there's an evil spirit in the house, I'll face my fear head-on!"

Chu Bai's mouth twitched slightly.

It turns out he is just another poor person restricted by poverty...

Alice beside him couldn't help but complain:

"This face-changing technique really looks like someone else's..."

"Ahem, it's better not to complain about such insignificant things."

Chu Bai coughed twice, then waved his hand:

"Then the goal of this operation is to investigate the truth behind the series of strange events in the house!"

"Little White Detective Agency, all personnel mobilized."

"Target, haunted house!"

Chapter 118 The blood-red note on the dining table... (slightly scary)

The haunted house is located in the suburbs of Renli.

Since it is a newly developed area, there are not many shops and residences nearby.

Compared to the downtown area, this place is also more deserted.

Chu Bai, Alice and Youmeng followed the map and came to the haunted house.

As if to fit the atmosphere.

The originally clear sky suddenly became covered with dark clouds.

The rain was dripping down from the sky, and even bursts of thunder were heard among the thick dark clouds.

"...What's with this horror movie-standard weather?"

Chu Bai looked at the sky helplessly:

"Looking at the current atmosphere, I have a bad feeling that something will happen once I enter this room."

Youmu also became a little afraid again:

"Well, then, then, how about we break up today and come back to investigate another day when it's clear?"

"No, the atmosphere has been set to this point, how can we give up halfway?"

Chu Bai comforted Youmu:

"Don't worry, even if something happens to you, I will deliver the food coupons to Baiyu Tower intact..."

"What kind of peace of mind is that? Besides, I think my survival is more important than the coupons!"

Youmu complained, while Alice held her forehead helplessly:

"How about we go in first? If we keep on complaining like this, another chapter will be wasted for no apparent reason."

"...That makes sense. Let's get straight to the point."

The three of them walked into the yard and looked at the haunted house in front of them.

Under the dim and gloomy sky, this two-story villa seems to exude an inexplicable and strange atmosphere.

Chu Bai stretched out his hand and slowly pushed the door handle of the wooden door.

Accompanied by a creaking sound.

The door slowly opened, revealing the dark and eerie space inside.

……

……

Boom!

Thunder and lightning roared in the sky.

The rain seemed to be getting heavier.

The three of them slowly walked into the room, and Alice immediately used lighting magic.

Bright balls of light lit up around them, and the soft halo made them feel a little more at ease.

"It seems it's because of the recent continuous spring rains, plus no one has lived here for a while."

“So the windows of the room were covered with mud, blocking the light from outside and creating a dim atmosphere in the room.”

Alice looked around and came to the first conclusion.

Chu Bai activated his perception ability the moment he entered the room.

According to his spiritual perception, there was no other strange aura in the entire house except the three of them.

So he immediately concluded:

"It's not a monster, and there are no earthbound spirits nearby."

"There's no other scent in the entire room except the three of us."

Youmu also said beside him:

"I haven't noticed any spirits here either. It's probably not a ghost moving around in the dark."

Chu Bai nodded slightly.

Then he took out a small notebook and silently wrote down the information "There is no one else in the room."

……

……

After initially confirming that there was no danger in the room.

Next comes the formal investigation.

The direction of the investigation focuses on those five strange events.

One of the strange events was that [scarlet blood was flowing in the water pipes in the room].

"How about... unscrew it and see?"

Alice looked at the kitchen water pipe nervously.

Chu Bai also swallowed his saliva:

"Then I'll go and twist it. Xiao Ai and Youmu will hold me back."

"it is good."

Alice was clutching the magic book in her hand, while Youmu's face turned pale as she gripped the hilt of her sword.

Under the gaze of the two girls.

Chu Bai took a deep breath, slowly reached out, and turned on the faucet.

"……Eh?"

As a result, no liquid flowed down.

There was no trace of either blood or water.

Chu Bai breathed a sigh of relief, and the inexplicable fear gradually disappeared:

"It seems that this rumor is false. Of course, it is also possible that the water pipe is broken."

Alice's expression also relaxed slightly.

"That's right. After all, if there really is something abnormal, it would be impossible to hide it from our perception..."

puff.

puff.

Suddenly, a strange sound came from the water pipe.

Chu Bai and Alice looked over subconsciously, and their expressions suddenly changed.

Accompanied by an inexplicable sound, a large amount of blood suddenly gushed out from the water pipe, and the pungent smell of blood immediately spread!

Not sewage.

It's not a clogged pipe.

This is real, bright red and smelly blood!

“Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!”

Youmu screamed on the spot.

Her shout almost frightened Chu Bai and Alice to death.

The already terrifying scene, coupled with Youmu's thoughtful dubbing, made Chu Bai and Xiao Ai's heartbeats accelerate:

"Hey, why are you yelling so loudly?"

Chu Bai patted his chest and said:

"It was nothing, but I was almost scared to death by your shouting!"

"Yes, yes, I'm sorry!"

Youmu stammered:

"But look back, the pipes... the pipes..."

"Ok?"

Chu Bai turned around again, and his eyes suddenly fixed.

The blood that was originally gushing out had now turned into clear water.

The previous pungent smell of blood also disappeared, as if it was just an illusion.

"this……!"

Chu Bai reacted quickly and released his enormous perception power in an instant.

But after his inspection, he still found nothing abnormal in the water pipe.

He plucked up his courage, covered his body with magic power, and tried to turn on the water switch again.

This time, there was only clear water. It was as if the blood that had just gushed out was really just an illusion they had all been possessed by...

Not right.

There's definitely something wrong.

Why does blood flow out of the water pipe without any fluctuations of unusual energy?

Chu Bai frowned slightly. He had no idea what to do and could only temporarily write down the "abnormality in the water pipe" in his small notebook.

……

……

On the other hand, Alice was investigating another supernatural incident.
