"Master, why can't we go in? Is there something strange about this villa?" Luo Chao asked curiously.

"Young man, you must be from out of town, right?" The taxi driver lit a cigarette and said thoughtfully.

"That's right." Luo Chao nodded.

"Ah, then it's normal you don't know about this villa. I'll tell you, this villa, in our Huahai City, is called Sea City No. 81!" The taxi driver said with a serious face.

"Sea City No. 81? I've only heard of Beijing No. 81; it seems to be a horror movie." Luo Chao felt a bit puzzled.

"Hey, where do you think the story for the horror movie Beijing No. 81 came from? It's adapted from the story of the haunted building Capital No. 81 and has a real basis!" The taxi driver said with some irritation.

"This villa in front of you is haunted beyond belief; that's why it's called Sea City's No. 81 haunted building! A few years ago, some young people often came here at night to test their courage, and the result? Haha, they were all scared out of their minds!"

"Even more bizarre, it's not just people. Within a five-kilometer radius of this villa, there's not even a stray dog or cat. They say many stray dogs and cats went into that villa but never came out! I reckon they were eaten by ghosts, not even leaving a bone!"

"If it wasn't that this place is far from the city, and there are more people heading into the city on the way back, I wouldn't want to come to this haunted place!" The taxi driver gave Luo Chao a meaningful look, "So, young man, I see you're a good-hearted person, I advise you not to go in!"

The more the taxi driver spoke, the more scared he became, even his hand holding the cigarette started to tremble.

But just then, inside the abandoned villa, a faint yellow light suddenly turned on!

Then, a silhouette of a woman dressed in white appeared at the villa's door, and she was walking step by step towards Luo Chao and the taxi driver!

"Crap, a female ghost, run!"

The taxi driver shouted in shock and, regardless of Luo Chao's still skeptical expression, slammed on the gas pedal and drove away without looking back, leaving Luo Chao standing alone by the roadside.

Originally, Luo Chao absolutely did not believe in these bizarre urban legends, but after the ghost encounter at the hospital earlier, Luo Chao had no choice but to believe that ghosts truly exist in this world.

Luo Chao turned to look at the white-clad "female ghost" walking towards him, and he became tense.

However, due to the lack of streetlights in this bleak suburb, in this dim environment, Luo Chao couldn't see the appearance of the white-clad "female ghost" clearly, so he had to stay alert, ready to fight back at any moment.

Unexpectedly, the white-clad "female ghost" stopped suddenly when she was thirty meters away from Luo Chao.

Just as Luo Chao felt curious, a familiar cold female voice rang out.

"How long do you plan to stay on the road?" The owner of this voice was Tang Tianyi.

"Oh, it turns out it's you, Miss Tang." Upon hearing Tang Tianyi's voice, the tense string in Luo Chao's heart finally loosened.

"Otherwise, who did you think it was? The female ghost from Sea City No. 81?" Tang Tianyi coldly retorted.

"Haha, so you know this joke." Luo Chao scratched the back of his head, feeling awkward, and walked to Tang Tianyi's side.

"Follow me." Tang Tianyi ignored Luo Chao's awkwardness, turned around, and led Luo Chao towards the dilapidated villa.

On the way, Luo Chao couldn't help but ask, "Miss Tang, since there are such terrifying rumors about this villa, why do you dare set up your laboratory here? Aren't you afraid living here as a girl?"

Tang Tianyi replied indifferently, "Do you know how the rumors about this villa came about?"

"How did they come about?" Luo Chao asked curiously.

"Internet forums," Tang Tianyi answered.

Luo Chao nodded slightly. He knew that in modern society, more than eighty percent of urban legends originally spread from internet forums.

Tang Tianyi continued, "Three years ago, I purchased this villa as my laboratory, but at that time, there were still some residents nearby. Their daily square dancing and midnight karaoke severely disturbed my rest and experiments. So, I concocted the horror story of Sea City No. 81 and posted it on internet forums using several anonymous accounts."

"As a result, this urban legend I fabricated caused a great stir among netizens, and many people flocked here to explore, but they were all scared away by some experimental products of mine, which further entrenched the urban legend of Sea City No. 81 in people's minds. The surrounding property prices kept dropping, and over three years, the nearby residents kept moving out, leaving only me now."

"Thus, I achieved my ultimate goal—not being disturbed while doing experiments, and of course, also protecting them because my experiments typically have a certain degree of... danger."

Seeing Tang Tianyi calmly say such a long passage, Luo Chao couldn't help but shiver.

This isn't a female ghost; she's a female Demon!

After the two entered the villa, Tang Tianyi signaled Luo Chao to sit on the sofa and then started making coffee.

"Miss Tang, I don't like coffee; just make me a cup of tea," Luo Chao said naturally.

As soon as Luo Chao said this, Tang Tianyi instead looked at him with a disdainful expression, as if seeing an idiot.

"This coffee is for me. If you want something to drink, make it yourself. You're my investor, but I'm not your servant," Tang Tianyi said righteously.

"Hehe, forget it then, I'm not thirsty," Luo Chao said, but in his heart, he thought, "Wow, this is truly someone without emotional genes, zero emotional intelligence, not even understanding the basic courtesy of hosting!"

"Alright, Mr. Luo, please don't waste my time. If you have something to say, just say it," Tang Tianyi bluntly got to the point.

"Miss Tang, I saw a ghost! A real ghost, not an urban legend!" Luo Chao quickly responded, "And the most crucial thing is, that ghost is now at Huahai First People's Hospital!"

Then, Luo Chao described what he saw in the hospital surgery room word for word to Tang Tianyi.

After listening, Tang Tianyi looked at Luo Chao with a skeptical gaze, took a sip of coffee, and asked, "Can you guarantee that everything you said is true?"

"Every word is true!"

Luo Chao spoke earnestly. He knew that right now, perhaps only this peculiar Tang Tianyi could find a solution to this matter.

Tang Tianyi nodded thoughtfully, and from her white lab coat, she took out a shiny golden key, "Let's head down."
