{After a long while, you pulled yourself together and began thinking about what to do next.}
{According to the results of the last two simulations, the rooster crowing sound was supposed to happen at 0:13 a.m. It was now 9:40 p.m., so there were about two and a half hours left.}
{To trace the person behind the crowing and find out who was orchestrating everything, you needed the help of the Female Ghost.}
{That meant you had to get your sister to complete the ritual before 0:13 a.m., inviting the Female Ghost into the mirror your grandmother had given her. Only then could you bring the Female Ghost with you to lay the trap and follow the trail.}
{But would your sister agree? After all, the Female Ghost had previously possessed her and used her body to kill someone!}
{Also, completing the ritual probably meant you had to tell your sister everything.}
{Besides, something seemed off about your sister too!}
{You recalled how she had questioned you about whose fault it all was.}
{At the time, something strange had happened to her. Her body was covered in red markings.}
{You suspected there were things about her that neither you nor your parents knew.}
{You shook your head hard to stop yourself from being overwhelmed by the unknown. After all, this was a Rule Horror world, unexpected and incomprehensible things were completely normal.}
{Your grandmother was a spirit medium and understood Taoist Principles and similar things. Could it be that your sister had awakened some sort of ability after being possessed by the Female Ghost?}
{It seemed very likely. And you didn't want to waste more time just thinking about it here. You got up and went straight to your sister's room, knocked on the door, and entered.}
{"Brother, what is it?" Your sister asked, looking at you in confusion.}
{"I want to talk to you." As you spoke, you closed the door behind you.}
{Your sister looked at you suspiciously. "Talk? About what? Just say it, brother."}
{You nodded. "Okay, I'll be direct then."}
{"You've probably felt it too, something completely unexpected has happened in this house. Like Mom and Dad chopping bones in the middle of the night."}
{Your sister's expression changed instantly. She jumped off the bed and stared at you, her voice cold. "You read my diary, didn't you?!"}
{You shook your head. "I heard it too. And I probably know more details than you do."}
{"I told you, I want to protect you and protect this family. I hope there's no suspicion between us, no secrets."}
{Your sister stared at you intently, as if trying to confirm you weren't lying. Once she felt you were telling the truth, her expression softened. She sat back down on the bed and nodded, saying she had indeed heard Mom and Dad chopping bones in the early hours and suspected they had killed someone and were dismembering and cleaning up the body.}
{You shook your head. "It wasn't Mom and Dad who killed someone, it was you. More precisely, it was a Female Ghost who possessed you and used your body to kill."}
{"Mom and Dad just didn't want you to get in trouble. That's why they endured the fear and disgust to help dismember and clean up the scene."}
{Your sister immediately stood up, her face filled with disbelief, shaking her head over and over. "No! It couldn't be me! That's impossible!"}
{With no other choice, you told her everything—from going to Grandma's, to encountering the Female Ghost, to losing your soul, and all the events that followed.}
{"That... That's impossible! How do you know all of this?" Your sister still refused to believe it. She stared hard at you, trying to see if you were lying through your body language.}
{You shook your head. "At first, I couldn't believe it either. But as my memories slowly returned, I kept observing and comparing things. And just now, I saw the Female Ghost myself and confirmed it. Everything is true!"}
{Your sister's eyes widened in shock. She still couldn't accept it. All along, she had believed it was Mom and Dad who had committed the murder. It had never crossed her mind that it was actually her. That Mom and Dad had been chopping bones and dismembering bodies in the middle of the night to protect her!}
{She collapsed to the floor and began to cry.}
{She had even thought that you might have killed someone and that Mom and Dad were helping you handle the body.}
{But it turned out that it was her!!!}
{"It's okay. The person you killed was a bad person. And technically, it wasn't you, it was the Female Ghost. You were completely unconscious at the time." You squatted beside her and comforted her softly.}
{But she still couldn't handle the shock and continued crying uncontrollably, her sobs growing louder.}
{With no other option, you used a towel to cover her mouth.}
{"If you keep crying, Mom and Dad are going to hear us." You warned her. "You can't cry anymore."}
{Hearing that, your sister finally held back her sobs, though she continued to sniffle in silence.}
{"What's done is done. What matters now is that from this point on, our family can live peacefully and happily together."}
{"But before that, we need to deal with the problems our family is currently facing."}
{You continued to comfort your sister.}
{"Yes… what's most important is for our family to live peacefully and happily together."}
{Your sister finally stopped crying and nodded.}
{Then she asked what the main threat and danger was right now.}
{You told her everything about the Female Ghost, and the person behind everything.}
{After thinking for a moment, your sister looked at you coldly and asked, "What if we just get rid of the Female Ghost directly?"}
