Vol.5 - Chapter 23 – It is Green-Capturing boss who lets us no longer be oppressed!

The toilet light was on, and overall it was brighter than the main hall outside.

The dark golden walls were as luxurious as the main hall, but at this moment, everyone had run away due to the intimidation of the red-clothed figure, so it was silent here.

In this absurd world of specters, the colors were green, red, black, white, and gray. Many of the specters had physical forms, so it was barely reasonable for them to use the toilet. Yu Xing gave up on commenting.

He squinted his eyes and closed the toilet door behind him, walking towards the last cubicle.

As the person responsible for diverting the attention of the specters for Zhao Yijiu, he naturally observed the movements of all the specters within his line of sight with every action he took.

For example,

In the seemingly ghost-free toilet, there was a timid gray-clothed specter hiding here.

Just how timid was this specter? When Yu Xing's curse power "accidentally killed" several disheartened specters and one white-clothed specter, it had just come out of the toilet and immediately let out a scream upon seeing the scene.

That scream mixed with the wailing of the specter in death, but it was enough to catch Yu Xing's attention.

After screaming, it hurriedly ran back into the toilet as if the red-clothed figure was its greatest fear. Yu Xing knew that it was still in the toilet since he hadn't seen it come out again.

Okay, it was a bit silly and cute. It only closed the door of the last cubicle, while the other cubicles were open because no specters were using them.

Yu Xing was very satisfied with this natural opportunity. This timid gray-clothed specter...

Perhaps it could be put to good use.

He stopped outside the cubicle, curled his fingers, and lightly knocked on the door twice.

A panicked "thud" sound came from inside the door, as if a trash can had been knocked over.

Then, a desperate sob echoed from behind the cubicle.

Yu Xing: "Tsk tsk tsk."

Why did he feel like a ghost wandering in the toilet in a horror movie, while the specter inside the cubicle seemed like a person too scared to make a sound?

The role reversal was a bit ridiculous.

Suddenly, a sense of morbid curiosity surged up in Yu Xing's heart. He smirked and, with a little force, destroyed the door. He smoothly opened the door and looked inside.

A gray-clothed specter was pressing its face against the wall, covering its mouth to prevent itself from making any sound. Its gray clothes trembled along with the sound of the door opening, occasionally revealing a bit of sorrowful crying through the gaps between its fingers.

Pale fingers touched its shoulder, causing the gray-clothed specter to tremble and fall to the ground with a thud. It turned its head and cried out, "Please don't kill me, Lord in red! Wahhh..."

Its mask was tightly sealed, without any facial features, like a black vortex.

And those tears, they were crying without any water.

But the fear was real, which was quite rare. It could shake itself like a sieve.

"We're all specters, what are you afraid of?" Yu Xing asked.

The gray-clothed specter said, "I'm already a specter, dying again would scatter my soul!"

Yu Xing: Very well, logical and organized.

He looked down at the gray-clothed specter on the ground, still very puzzled. "There are other specters besides me who appear in front of the red-clothed figure every day, and nothing happens to them. Why are you so afraid? What guilty thing have you done?"

"Wuwuwu..." The gray-clothed specter cried sadly for about ten seconds before chokingly saying, "I haven't... haven't done anything guilty, but you... you were too ruthless when you attacked. I don't want to die..."

Yu Xing raised an eyebrow.

"Among the specters you killed, there's me, and there's my girlfriend... wuwuwu..."

Was it because of this reason?

This novel is available on "p𝑎wread.com".

Clearly, it was a sad thing, but Yu Xing, the wicked culprit, couldn't feel sad.

After going to the toilet and finding out that his girlfriend's specter had disappeared, he felt extreme fear in his heart, which led to a complete fear of the red-clothed figure?

Did it think that all red-clothed figures were like this, ruthless thugs who killed specters for no reason, so it wanted to hide and not be noticed by the red-clothed figure?

This reason... Yu Xing's hand in his wide sleeve moved slightly, but he didn't continue asking. He just said ominously, "If you keep crying, you'll lose your tongue."

The gray-clothed specter immediately stopped making any sound and looked up at Yu Xing. Although there were no holes on its mask, Yu Xing could still feel a gaze of fear coming from it.

"Do you want to avenge your girlfriend?"

"I don't want to! I don't want to!" The gray-clothed specter was naturally terrified, and it expressed its attitude without hesitation as soon as Yu Xing asked.

"Do you want to disappear into nothingness?"

Was there even a need to ask? The gray-clothed specter trembled, "I... I don't want to!"

"Good, if you don't want to, stand up and talk. My head is tired from looking down." Otherwise, considering the image of the red-clothed figure and the environment of the toilet, Yu Xing himself wanted to lie on the ground and talk, recover his strength, and suppress his cursed aura.

The gray-clothed specter quickly stood up, almost slipping due to fear.

Yu Xing didn't feel sorry for it at all. He looked at it with his arms crossed. It was quite tall, about 1.8 meters. If it wasn't so timid, it would have a bit of momentum. After all, it was much better than those hunched specters.

He said, "Next, I'll ask, and you answer. Don't say useless nonsense or beg for mercy. If your answers are useful to me, I won't kill you."

"Wuwuwu... Okay..." The gray-clothed specter probably wanted to answer immediately, but its crying tone couldn't be suppressed.

Yu Xing hoped it could be more straightforward. His voice was cold, "How many times have you been to the Green-Capturing Bar?""Over fifty times, I guess..."

"Is there a party every time?"

"Yes!"

"Do you enjoy coming here?"

This question seemed to perplex the disheartened ghost, as it was unsure whether it should like it or not.

This red-clothed individual seemed to be visiting the Green-Capturing Bar for the first time. The ghost wondered what his impression of the bar was... Could he be here for revenge, hence disregarding the Green-Capturing Ghost's dignity and fighting with other red-clothed individuals in the bar?

But perhaps he was a fan of the legendary Green-Capturing Ghost and had come to the bar specifically to see him.

"Oh, hard to answer?"

Yu Xing's dangerously pressing tone snapped the disheartened ghost back to reality. It weakly replied, "I like it."

"I see. So, you find the activity of sharing the waiters interesting, and that's why you come here every day, right?"

"Yes!" The mention of this seemed to invigorate the disheartened ghost, "I'm just a lonely, disheartened ghost, bullied by the white-clothed ghosts every day. Only humans, only humans are weaker than me. They provide me with a bit of comfort!"

"I come here every day because of this activity. It lets me know that I can also instill fear in others. That feeling of controlling others' fear, only Green-Capturing, the red-clothed, and the shadow can experience. I'm grateful to the Green-Capturing Ghost boss. It's because of him that the lower-ranked ghosts are no longer oppressed!"
