{After hearing the entire story, you felt that Dad and Mom weren't lying, and many things now finally made sense.}
{The diary entry your sister had written about hearing bone-chopping sounds from your parents' room in the middle of the night was probably when they, holding back their fear and disgust, were dismembering the corpse of the man the Female Ghost had killed.}
{After thinking briefly, you asked another question.}
{"What's our current situation? Have we identified the mastermind? Is the Female Ghost still living in the mirror at home?"}
{Your parents looked grim, especially your father, who first shook his head, then nodded slightly before sighing.}
{"The mastermind hasn't been fully uncovered yet. The deeper we dig, the more complicated the network behind them seems. And it turns out they're not just involved in Human Trafficking, but also Organ Trafficking!"}
{"The Female Ghost isn't happy with my progress. She thinks I'm too slow and is growing impatient. She wants to possess your sister again and charge through by her own methods."}
{Mom spoke up then.}
{"I won't let her possess either of you again. That hemp rope, duct tape, and towel are to protect you and to stop her from entering your bodies. I got them from a friend of Grandma's. They said the hemp rope is the 'Immortal Binding Rope' of the Grand Supreme Elder Lord. Ordinary Ghosts won't dare act recklessly."}
{"If she tries to force her way in, we'll fight to the death if we have to!"}
{Mom was furious and firm.}
{You guessed she might have misunderstood something you said earlier, thinking it was the Female Ghost who had possessed you.}
{"Yes," Dad added. "If she wants to take over either of you again, we absolutely won't allow it."}
{You felt moved. After all, they were your parents. They truly loved their children. They were just ordinary parents, ordinary people. While not perfect and sometimes inattentive, they'd already done everything they could.}
{"Could the man in black be an assassin sent by the mastermind? Was he trying to kill us to keep us quiet?" You asked again.}
{Your parents' faces grew extremely serious. Dad admitted that when they heard what you said, that's exactly what they thought and that was why they wanted to escape immediately.}
{It wasn't until later, when they noticed strange things in the basement, that they realized they must've entered an Illusory World.}
{Grandma had said before that forcibly stopping the Pocket Watch's timing could break an Illusory World. That's why they had you do it.}
{But now it seemed the Man in Black Trench Coat wasn't an assassin sent by the mastermind. After all, assassins are just human, they couldn't create an Illusory World.}
{You didn't agree. After two encounters with the Man in Black Trench Coat, you were sure that he was definitely a killer, and his goal was to wipe out your entire family!}
{As for the Illusory World, there was only one explanation: what you saw was something likely to happen in the future.}
{For example, during the blackout, those three people wearing rabbit, pig, and dog headgear appeared in the community. In reality, they were supposed to be working at Dream Times Building.}
{Which meant that everything you saw after the blackout might actually happen one day.}
{That two-meter-tall woman was the Female Ghost. In the future, she would walk out of your home.}
{The Man in Black Trench Coat would also take the elevator from the basement and enter your home, then unleash a massacre.}
{Your parents didn't disturb you and your sister as you fell into thought. After all, digesting everything you'd just learned was so strange and unbelievable and will take time.}
{When you and your sister had more or less calmed down, your parents took you home and told you to act like nothing had happened. After breakfast tomorrow, you were to go to school as usual. "Even if the sky falls, we'll hold it up," they said.}
{By the time you got home, it was already past 2 a.m. Your parents told you and your sister to sleep early and returned to their rooms.}
{Lying in bed, you couldn't sleep. You went into the bathroom and stared at the mirror. You wanted to meet the Female Ghost.}
{Minute by minute, time passed, but the Female Ghost did not appear in the mirror. You began to wonder if your parents were still hiding something.}
{Just then, a Two Meter Tall Woman appeared in the mirror.}
{Your heart skipped several beats. You turned around sharply, but no one was there. Looking back at the mirror, the Two Meter Tall Woman was staring at you.}
{You tried your hardest to stay calm, at least enough to regain control of your mouth and speak.}
{At that moment, the Female Ghost spoke first. "You were looking for me?"}
{Her voice was bone-chilling and haunting. It made you feel like you'd fallen into an icy pit. Your teeth began to chatter.}
{You forced yourself to nod, saying you wanted to talk to her.}
{The Female Ghost gave you a half-smile, half-smirk. Under your terrified gaze, she slowly began emerging from the mirror.}
{The first to appear was a pair of pale, blood-soaked claws.}
{Then came her disheveled head, with clumps of hair missing and bloodstains all over.}
{Next was her bruised and violently torn body.}
{But she only emerged halfway, she didn't fully step out of the mirror.}
{She raised her ghastly, hate-filled face. Her eyes had no whites, only endless blackness filled with resentment. She stared at you and asked, "What gives you the right to talk to me?"}
{A terrifying dark Yin wind surged around you, and the temperature dropped drastically. This was your first time coming face to face with a ghost and your mind went completely blank. You couldn't even say a single word.}
{The Female Ghost shook her head slightly, clearly disappointed, and slowly returned into the mirror. Her voice lingered faintly in the air.}
{"Tell your father, he has only one week left!"}
{Then, the Female Ghost disappeared from the mirror, and you collapsed to the floor.}
{This was your first direct encounter with a Malevolent Ghost. You thought you'd be calm like the protagonists in fiction novels or maybe even get some new abilities.}
{But in truth, facing a real Malevolent Ghost, you were completely overwhelmed by the terrifying pressure.}
{Your brain kept screaming that this Female Ghost could kill you in an instant and crush your ghost head into dust without a trace.}
