Evil Spirits Enter the World

"Hello! I'd like to report a crime. I found a female corpse by the lake," calmly stated the man as he called the police.

Not much time passed before the distant sound of police sirens reached the shore.

I sat beside my own body, wearing a sorrowful expression.

What should I do? If my body were taken away, my soul would not be able to return to the water.

Soon, the police and the forensic doctor came to my body.

The female forensic doctor crouched down, clad in gloves, seemingly re-examining the time of my demise.

"Officer Hellman, this woman has been dead for at least three years, but the strange thing is that her body has not developed any bloated cadaver, and it appears as if she recently drowned."

Three years!

It turned out that I had been dead for so long, which I didn't expect.

All I knew was the weight of my resentment, which consumed me day by day, driving me to seek out the living and drag them down.

Even though they had no grudge against me, I just couldn't stand seeing those people's happy smiles.

At this time, the man who pulled me up was also taken back to the police department.

My body was naturally bagged and taken away.

After several failed attempts to jump back into the water, I had to follow them.

For water ghosts like us, once our bodies were taken away, the water surface would be like a piece of transparent glass, which could only be isolated outside and couldn't be passed through.

One night, I wandered on the streets of the human world.

Sometimes, I would soar alongside passing cars; sometimes, I would drift along with people. When passing through intersections, I could see many of its kind.

But someone like me who held so much resentment had no friends in the underworld at all.

At the police department, the man briefly explained how he found me, gave a statement, and was then released.

But I was done. I felt trapped in this human world where I no longer belonged, all because of him.

No, I must take his life.

The cause of my death held no significance to me anymore. I just wanted to release my ghost nature by finding a scapegoat.

It was already late at night when the man came out of the police department. I sat on his left shoulder, with my ghost hand constantly covering his eyes.

I thought that I could cause him to have a car accident or fall into a lake.

However, he hailed a taxi, and unfortunately, the driver was a strong man.

I couldn't exert my energy at all, so I could only hide behind him and follow him home.

It only took the police department half an hour to drive to his home.

After getting out of the car, the taxi driver said to him, "Hey buddy, try not to walk around at night these days. Something bad might happen to you."

He didn't take it seriously and replied calmly, "Thank you."

The man's residence was on the 18th floor of a high-rise apartment building.

While riding the elevator, I encountered a family who had just returned from the hospital with their child.

The child was very quiet before entering the elevator, but once inside, he started crying loudly!

He kept pointing at the young man in the elevator, exclaiming, "Mom, my sister is on him, and my sister is wet, wet..."

The little girl's parents appeared embarrassed and apologized, saying, "We're sorry. She's been confused due to her fever, and she is talking nonsense."

The man didn't say anything, but he turned his head and glanced at me.

If I hadn't died, I would have almost believed that he could see me.

I fixed a fierce gaze upon the little girl and made a face at her.

The girl was so scared that she immediately closed her eyes, ceasing her crying and any further commotion.
