Great, we're doomed now!

Since I can't figure it out, I'll stop thinking about it and just let things take their course!

I don't know if it's because I walked too much today, but I feel so heavy... Thinking this, Jianzi unconsciously closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.

"!"

The girl suddenly opened her eyes, blinked in confusion, and then got up and picked up her phone.

"You only slept for a few minutes? It feels like hours have passed."

Seeing that Zi shook her head, she heard her mother calling her from downstairs to come to the living room for dinner, so she immediately got up, opened the wardrobe, and hung up her coat.

"..."

There was a pair of feet—Jianzi tried her best to control her expression and gaze.

Inside the wardrobe, clothes concealed the sinister activity hidden within, but out of the corner of one's eye, one could still notice the abnormal shadow deep within, and a pair of pale feet peeking out from underneath.

As she hung up her coat and was about to close the door, long, black hair emerged from the crack, climbing up the door panel and wrapping around the handle again and again.

You can...see me..., right?

A cool sensation came from her hand. Seeing that Zi's expression remained unchanged, but her eyes were faintly moist, she suppressed the turmoil in her heart and closed the wardrobe door through her messy long hair.

Hey...hey...look at me!

"I'm coming right away, Mom!"

Seeing Zi shout loudly, his voice trembling slightly, he walked out of the room with a stern face.

click!

As soon as the door closed, the girl let out a long sigh of relief, but she didn't dare to show it too obviously, lest the female ghost find something after chasing after her.

She walked down the stairs step by step. Although she didn't look back, her keen senses didn't react. The chilling feeling gradually faded away... It seemed that it hadn't chased after her. Thank goodness.

"I won't change into my pajamas tonight, I'll just sleep in my regular clothes," Miko thought to herself.

After the girl left, the room fell into a deathly silence. An illusory shadow passed through the wardrobe and entered the room, wandering slowly and aimlessly.

Most evil spirits possess only rudimentary intelligence, acting primarily on instinct, and at most capable of disguising themselves or deceiving others. Those that can communicate with humans, clearly express their thoughts, and even begin to solidify their spiritual form, are no longer simply "spirits," but are developing towards becoming ghosts or deities.

The long-haired female ghost with her tongue dangling to the ground is clearly just an ordinary evil spirit that becomes idle once it loses its target.

But perhaps she lived in a similar room before her death, which is why she couldn't forget the dressing table and even wanted to fix her hair in front of the mirror—

The female ghost tilted her head, as if she saw something in the mirror, and suddenly turned her head back:

Nothing

This puzzled her; there had clearly been something just now...

Suddenly, a nameless fear gripped my heart!

The blurry shadows flickered like candlelight, revealing the evil spirit's restless and uneasy heart.

"!"

Fear... such a strange yet familiar feeling.

Evil spirits also have things they fear, but those are completely different from what you are feeling now!

At that moment, she felt as if she had returned to her former life; her muscles tensed, her breathing became rapid, and her heart began to pound uncontrollably again.

—Even though she no longer has a physical body, these experiences and memories surface with unparalleled clarity.

Clearly, clearly I've even forgotten my own name, but this is...

hiss!

The female ghost trembled all over, as if she were naked and exposed to the harsh winter, her body stiff and afraid to turn around.

Are you kidding me? I actually feel "cold"?!

"Hooray~~~"

"!!!"

Something... is behind me!

In her panic, the female ghost seemed to turn into a child, even trying to take deep breaths to relieve her tension, completely forgetting that she was already in a spirit state.

"Hello~"

No turning back!

Don't listen!

"you……"

go away!

Get out of here!

I can't see anything, I can't hear anything!

"You...you can actually see me, right?"

"!"

"..."

Gradually, perhaps because the female ghost remained motionless, the chilling atmosphere behind them dissipated, and the room seemed to return to normal temperature.

The female ghost relaxed, brushed her hair back, and subconsciously looked into the mirror—

A blurry black and white shadow rested on her shoulder!

"Aiya ya ya ya!"

The female ghost frantically shook her body, then turned her head and saw that the shadow was gone. She felt a great sense of relief, but her chest was still heaving, making her look like a frightened ordinary person.

--call!

A ghostly figure emerged from the mirror, its hands, one above the other, each extending its fingers to press against the female ghost's chin and the top of her head, rendering her immobile.

"You could see me after all!"

"Ugh!!!"

Look into my eyes!

"no, do not want……"

Although she didn't know what was going to happen, the female ghost still struggled violently. However, fear completely overwhelmed her, and her spiritual power vanished, leaving her completely at the mercy of the other party.

"I...let them go."

"Look at me!"

The commanding tone made the female ghost subconsciously look up.

Look into my eyes!

"Yes……"

The metal eye mask suddenly opened, revealing a pair of beautiful eyes inside, with extremely deep pupils that reflected the female ghost's panicked appearance.

In that instant, their eyes met—

"You're looking at me, aren't you?!"

The black and white figure shouted and "pulled" the female ghost up with both hands, kneading her like dough. After a few dazzling movements, the long-haired female ghost turned into smoke and disappeared.

The door opened, and Jianzi walked in. Upon seeing the black and white figure, she trembled almost imperceptibly, a look of doubt appearing in her eyes. However, she dared not show too much and simply walked over silently.

"It's you! Ahhh~ My darling..."

Why aren't you saying anything? You can see me, can't you?

The phantom that appeared in the room was dressed like a shrine maiden, but in black and white. She wore a metal eye mask and kept repeating the same few words while muttering something. Jianzi heard her but did not respond.

Surprisingly, she wasn't afraid when she saw the black and white figure; instead, she felt a strange sense of familiarity and warmth.

But she had been tricked by all sorts of intelligent evil spirits so many times that she dared not respond anymore.

By the way, where did that female ghost go?

"It's me! Look into my eyes, look!"

Seeing that the main body was ignoring him, the black and white figure gradually became agitated.

"Don't pretend you can't see me! Seriously!"

...It will be quite some time before the two clear up their misunderstanding and Jianzi realizes that the black and white figures are actually her guardian spirits.

Growth potential A

• A rare Stand with communication abilities and independent consciousness, possessing a high degree of autonomy, it will automatically protect the user even without the user's command.

• It can sense “malice”, whether it comes from a person, an animal, or even an intangible entity. The Stand will detect the malice it emits and retaliate according to the specific situation.

• To materialize the other party's malice and reflect it back to them in a corresponding manner.

If someone attempts to stab you with a sword or knife, wounds from sharp weapons will appear on your body.

If you want to intimidate others, you will feel fear yourself;

When a spirit invades the physical body of a living person, it begins to weaken and eventually dissipates.

• As long as you make eye contact, the ability's effect will be doubled, retaliating against the enemy's malice in a more brutal way.

Note: The Stand has a rather volatile personality, completely unlike the original's gentle and kind nature, and doesn't know the meaning of forgiveness when dealing with enemies.
