"Alright, finish your food and get some sleep."
After a long day, Qin Nuo wanted to collapse onto the bed, but going two days without a shower left him feeling unbearably filthy and itchy.
Better take a shower.
Qin Nuo thought to himself, not that he was sloppy.
It was just that stripping down completely while showering made him feel insecure.
Entering the bathroom, Qin Nuo suddenly noticed the faucet was dry, and the floor drain was clogged with a tangled mess of hair.
Glancing at Liu Jiaqi by the door, Qin Nuo said, "You're shedding quite a bit, aren't you?"
"No... it's not my hair," Liu Jiaqi replied, her face pale.
Qin Nuo's expression darkened, "Another ghost got in?"
The faucet sputtered like it was choking, then spewed out a disgusting pool of black blood.
And some unknown rotten flesh!
Even Qin Nuo couldn't handle this scene.
Liu Jiaqi said, "It was fine when I showered yesterday."
Bang, bang, bang.
The door suddenly knocked.
Qin Nuo gestured for Liu Jiaqi to be quiet, then grabbed the Bone-Crushing Hammer and went to open the door.
Outside stood a woman in white, her hair reaching her waist and covering her face, resembling Sadako.
"3697?"
A cold, emotionless voice came from behind the hair.
"It's me, what's up?" Although he sensed no malice, Qin Nuo still gripped the Bone-Crushing Hammer tightly.
The woman in white handed Qin Nuo a box.
Opening it, he found clean living supplies inside.
"I've fixed the water problem," the woman in white said.
Qin Nuo realized that the tangled hair in the bathroom was hers. What was this female ghost's role?
Dorm manager?
A kind-hearted young lady?
Qin Nuo looked at the woman in white with curiosity.
The woman in white didn't speak, instead glancing at the badge on Qin Nuo's chest.
Qin Nuo roughly understood.
An excellent employee reward, ordered by Pinocchio.
"Don't open the door at night."
With that, the woman in white left.
"Qin Nuo, what does she... do?" Liu Jiaqi asked quietly from the bathroom.
"Bringing warmth," Qin Nuo replied, handing the box to Liu Jiaqi. He then took out a towel and shampoo, pulled her out, and started scrubbing her in the bathroom.
The faucet soon returned to normal. After two days in the spirit world, Qin Nuo finally enjoyed a comfortable shower.
"Facial cleanser, face mask, body wash, and bath towel! Oh my gosh!!"
Qin Nuo took it and glanced at it. It was a caramel tea with milk, a very ordinary afternoon tea.
However, Qin Nuo couldn't figure out why the chef yesterday failed with this dish.
Something wasn't right, definitely not right.
Qin Nuo looked up, staring at the little girl, and activated the Eye of Analysis.
"Eye of Analysis: When I was little, my mom made me a caramel tea with milk. My mischievous sister secretly cut her hair and sprinkled it on the tea. After drinking it, my stomach felt like it was pierced by countless needles, and I was in pain all night."
"But later, I found myself liking this pain. This perverse hobby made me secretly cut my hair and sprinkle it on the tea every time. The excruciating pain made me toss and turn in bed, but it also satisfied a certain psychological thrill."
"After my mom disappeared, the only thing I remembered of her was the caramel tea with milk."
Goodness, drinking tea with milk and adding hair!
Qin Nuo wasn't well-read, but he knew what it felt like to swallow hair fragments.
This little girl looked pure and innocent, yet she had such a perverse hobby!
The chef probably never figured out that this simple tea wasn't about tasting good, but about causing her pain!
He died unjustly.
"Do I look good, big brother?" The little girl suddenly smiled.
Qin Nuo's expression changed slightly, "Wait a moment."
Leaving the restaurant, he quickly headed to the kitchen.
The chefs were already busy, none of them paying attention to Qin Nuo, each focused on their own dishes, with various exotic ingredients being brought to the counter.
Finding tea with milk in the kitchen was relatively easy.
Making tea with milk didn't require much skill, just mixing the ingredients and heating or chilling them.
When it was almost ready, Qin Nuo cut a lock of his own bangs, chopped it finely, and mixed it into the tea.
A nearby chef, witnessing his inhumane action, looked at him in shock, "Human, are you serious?"
Qin Nuo ignored him, plated the dish, and carried it out.
In the restaurant, many guests were watching the little girl's table.
After all, yesterday's scene was still fresh in their minds!
Liu Jiaqi was also watching, silently praying for Qin Nuo.
The dish was soon served, and seeing it was a human, many guests showed excited smiles.
Unlike yesterday, their favorite was the sight of human blood splattering in the restaurant.
The fresh scent of blood could whet their appetites.
"Please enjoy your meal," Qin Nuo gestured for her to enjoy.
The little girl crouched on the chair, curiously examining the tea like a kitten, and commented.
"Your dish looks worse than yesterday's!"
Qin Nuo remained calm, "Appearance isn't everything, you'll know once you taste it."
The little girl tilted her head, looking at Qin Nuo with some surprise, "You're quite confident."
With that, she popped the lollipop out of her cherry lips and took a sip from the porcelain bowl.
Instantly, the entire restaurant fell silent.
It seemed all the guests were waiting for the little girl's verdict.
Some were excited, others anxious...
