"call……"
Gang Xiong let out a light breath.
His white teeth were stained with blood splattered from Kayako, and a strange, eerie smile appeared on his lips.
"It's different from when I came before."
He smiled.
Holding the sharp knife in his hand,
Step by step,
He walked towards Jiang Fan.
Thunder rumbled outside, and heavy rain poured down. The dark sky meant that only a few lamps illuminated the room. As Gang Xiong got closer to Jiang Fan, a strange black mist appeared around him, seeping into his body little by little. With each wisp of mist entering his body, Gang Xiong's face would show an even more confident smile.
So much resentment,
In his eyes, the person in front of him was already dead.
Bedroom entrance,
Jiang Fan stood there quietly, his face calm, watching as Gang Xiong absorbed the resentment of those who had died unjustly in the haunted house step by step. Under the circulation of his powerful spiritual energy, a solid and reliable protective shield formed around him, with the blue and black light clearly distinguishable in the room.
They're getting closer.
The distance between a human and a ghost
Only two steps left!
The black mist around Gangxiong disappeared. He raised his arm, a twisted smile on his face. Just as he was about to plunge the dagger into Jiang Fan's chest, a blue light suddenly bloomed. Unlike the clear-cut confrontation before, the suddenly blooming blue light swept through the entire bedroom in an instant, illuminating not only Gangxiong but also Kayako, who was lying motionless and bleeding.
Time seemed to stand still at this moment. Takeo's grip on the knife paused, but the look of shock on his face revealed his fear of the unknown situation before him.
"So you can be afraid too."
Jiang Fan walked up to Gang Xiong, looked at the look of shock on Gang Xiong's face as he was restrained, and said softly.
In the original story, Takeo, who suffered a mental breakdown due to his wife's questioning, was the culprit who indirectly caused a series of tragedies in the Curse of the Grudge. Takeo, who killed many people with cruel methods, showed fear at this moment.
"Despicable and hateful scum."
Jiang Fan waved his hand slightly, as if shooing away a bothersome fly.
However,
The imprisoned soul of Takeo Saeki suddenly exploded, scattering into countless streams of black mist that spilled outwards. Streaks of azure light enveloped the black mist, preventing even a single wisp of mist from escaping the room. Inside the room, the mist merged into a ball, and Takeo Saeki's soul reappeared. However, compared to before, Takeo Saeki's soul had become somewhat transparent.
"Spare me..."
Saeki Takeo's face was initially blank, but it was soon filled with great fear. He had a feeling that if things continued like this, he would completely disappear from this world after several breakdowns, or even disappear permanently like the people he had killed before, becoming nourishment for the world.
But just as he opened his mouth, Jiang Fan waved his hand again.
"Bang!"
His soul, composed of resentment and ferocity, dissipated once more. The encirclement of spiritual energy prevented him from escaping. Each time Saeki Takeo dissipated, the black mist in his body became increasingly scarce. Until the last time, Saeki Takeo's body became transparent. His face was filled with utter despair as he watched Jiang Fan wave his hand. In the final moment of his soul's complete collapse, many things suddenly flashed through his mind, but they were all hazy and he couldn't remember their appearance.
"dad."
I still recall a voice,
This is,
Was this the first time Junxiong called himself "Dad"?
That should be true.
Perhaps because his originally pure soul was tainted by too much filth, Takeo Saeki saw nothing in the moments before his soul completely perished. He only heard a childish cry before he disappeared from this world forever.
He did not see the lone child crouching in the dark space above the ceiling, making a sound at the moment of his death.
Jiang Fan looked up.
But then she turned her gaze away and looked at Kayako, who was still tied to the foot of the bed.
"Hiss... hiss... hiss... hiss..."
A gasp, like the gasp of extreme pain, came from Kayako's mouth, who had been lying dead on the ground. Under the dim light, Kayako's body, covered in knife wounds and bits of flesh, trembled, and slowly, little by little, turned her head...
"boom!"
Jiang Fan raised his hand and shot out a beam of green light, slamming the extremely disgusting-looking Kayako against the wall. Kayako's hands were still bound, and she writhed and fell off the wall like a worm, leaving bloodstains all over the ground and walls. Compared to Saeki Takeo, Kayako looked frail and weak.
"Hiss... hiss... hiss... hiss..."
On the dark ground,
Kayako writhed like a blood-red worm, her forehead split open with a huge gash, her blood-filled eyes were crimson, her long black hair was wrapped around her, and thick blood kept flowing from her half-open mouth as she kept screaming something.
"boom!"
Before she could reach him, Jiang Fan unleashed another beam of azure light. Unlike the first time, Kayako's body wasn't slammed against the wall. Instead, she withstood the attack and crawled slowly but steadily. Her hair seemed to grow on its own, wrapping around Jiang Fan.
Jiang Fan stopped moving, letting the hair climb up in front of him. But no matter how hard the hair tried to pierce the spiritual energy shield, it was to no avail. Even Kayako was blocked by an invisible wall and could not climb over.
Kayako stopped moving, staring at Jiang Fan with her crimson eyes, and her half-open mouth gradually closed.
