As soon as the old lady approached with a glass of water, Jack kicked her in the stomach: “Ghost! Get away, get away, don’t kill me, no!”
The old lady was kicked to the ground, her waist hitting the corner of the table, unable to get up for a long time.
Jack waved his arms wildly at the air, even starting to harm himself, banging his head against the wall repeatedly.
The old lady no longer cared about herself and lunged forward, trying to hold Jack: “Son, you can hit me all you want, but don’t hurt yourself!”
With no one else to blame, the old lady turned to find fault with me: “I thought you were so powerful. You’ve taken the money, and now my son has become like this. Tell me how you’re going to compensate!”
I just wanted to go to the balcony for some fresh air, but the old lady grabbed my hand and wouldn’t let me leave.
She sat on the ground, throwing a tantrum: “If you don’t find a solution, we’ll all die with my son.”
I forcefully shook her off: “If you hadn’t stolen my things, this would have been resolved long ago.”
“Let me tell you, if your son really dies, the one who harmed him is you yourself.”

How happy she was when she sent me away back then, and now she had personally ruined her precious son.
I felt so vindicated.
Since you gave birth but didn’t raise me, let me help you.
You won’t raise either of them.

Initially, to anger the old lady, I let her successfully steal my ghost–catching tool.
I didn’t expect her to throw it away directly.
Without the ghost–binding rope, I still had to do the job properly.
Personal matters aside, if I let an evil spirit loose to harm people, I wouldn’t be able to work in this industry anymore.
And that female ghost had become stronger after absorbing one of Jack’s souls.
The old lady could only cry, make scene and threaten suicide Hec

The old lady could only cry, make a scene, and threaten suicide. Her wailing by the side was really getting on my nerves: “If you keep making a fuss, just wait for your son to die.”
The old lady continued sobbing for a while before finally quieting down.
For a moment, I felt ashamed to be related to them by blood.
I really wanted to just leave and let the female ghost perish together with them.
Ghosts who steal human lifespans will face divine punishment and go to hell.
That’s why the female ghost hadn’t finished Jack off yet.
She was torturing Jack bit by bit.

I took out the Three Lives Mirror.
The Three Lives Mirror can reveal the past, present, and future of all objects.
The female ghost was too emotionally unstable to approach, so I could only first investigate what had happened in this room.
Many ghosts are trapped in the place where they died after death, which is how haunted houses come to be.
But as I explored the past and present of this room, I saw no trace of ghosts for a long time.
So why was this house sold as a haunted house?
Jack was now in a confused state, so I could only interrogate the old lady.
“Did your son know this was a haunted house?”
“Ye… yes, he did!”
“And you still dared to live here?”
“Those with… with clear consciences… naturally aren’t afraid.”
Seeing the old lady hesitating and stammering, I knew this matter wasn’t so simple: Don’t give me those high–sounding reasons.”
I tightened my grip on her collar: “It’s great that you’re not afraid. Then you can coexist peacefully with the ghost.”
“I’ll return your money. I’m not taking this job anymore.”
