Chapter 81: Lurking and Iris's Visit

Chapter 81 Lurking and Iris's Visit

Quinn's sudden awakening made the doctors beside him breathe a sigh of relief.

The rescue was effective, and they once again pulled a dying patient back from the brink of hell.

But Quinn did not feel any joy, and panic continued to hang over his heart.

Sean, the father who came to visit, could not resist his daughter's request and left the hospital with Quinn, who had just had the plaster cast put on.

Back home, Sean finally couldn't bear it anymore.

He stepped forward and gently placed his hand on his daughter's shoulder.

"Quinn, what's wrong with you?"

Whether in the hospital or on the way home, Quinn always looked uneasy, with a panic-stricken look, like a rabbit being hunted by a hungry wolf.

"Dad, remember what I told you before about the nightmares I've been having lately?"

"I used to think it was just a nervous breakdown caused by lack of rest, but after this accident, I realized that things were not as simple as I thought."

"I may be haunted by an evil spirit."

At this point, Quinn recalled the scene he saw when he was on the verge of death, and felt a surge of fear.

Sean didn't believe what his daughter said.

"Has any strange sect tried to recruit you recently?"

"No... Dad, you don't believe what I said?!"

Disappointment tinged Quinn's tone with anger.

"I didn't lie, why don't you believe me?"

"you……"

Sean wanted to say something, but suddenly he remembered what Jamie had said before, and he felt a little shaken.

My daughter Quinn said so, and Jamie also said so...

Is there really anything?

No... we can't jump to conclusion yet.

The inexplicable irritation in his heart reminded Sean of the evil-suppressing talisman that Jamie had brought with him.

That thing...

He turned around, walked into the living room, took out the yellow paper with mysterious words on it from the drawer, returned to Quinn's room, and handed it to his daughter.

"what is this?"

"It's Jamie, our neighbor next door, the young man who just moved in. He delivered the things to you on the day you had the accident."

Sean explained the origin of the talisman to his daughter.

"He told me that you were being targeted by an evil spirit... I don't know if you two had colluded to say this beforehand... but he asked me to pass this thing on to you."

"It's said to be a talisman that can bring good luck."

"If you are really scared, just take her with you. It will be just for psychological comfort."

When Sean said this, he couldn't help but slap his head and laughed at himself.

"I was probably brainwashed by you guys, and I actually kept this kind of thing."

Jamie?

The expression of the man who stopped him from communicating with spirits that day appeared in Quinn's mind.

The latter's tough face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it, and the tone he used to warn her was very solemn.

She hadn't taken it seriously at the time, but now it seemed that Jamie might actually know something.

With this thought in mind, Quinn put away the amulet.

Just think of it as my father said, it gives me some psychological comfort.

After seeing Quinn accept the amulet, Sean took out a basket from the side.

Inside were various foods he prepared for his daughter, as well as novels to pass the time, and a bell was also included.

Quinn has broken legs and has difficulty moving. If anything happens, he can use the bell to call himself.

Feeling his father's concern for him, Quinn's anger didn't last long, and he let his father push him to the bedroom, put him on the bed and cover him with a blanket. "You need to rest now, don't worry about the interview and the university. The most important thing is to recover as soon as possible."

"If you need anything, you can call me anytime. I'll be in the living room..."

----

"Sheng Hui Sheng Hui."

In the antique shop, Su Fan, who had just seen off a customer, received a call from Jamie.

"Mission accomplished?"

“I’m not sure if it’s finished…”

Jamie told Su Fan everything he had seen and done over the phone, no matter how big or small.

At the same time, he also informed the latter that Quinn had been in a car accident.

“…That’s roughly what happened.”

"The talisman is pasted in the right place."

"You rashly gave the evil-repelling talisman to the girl. This is really a foolish move. Have you ever considered how much uncertainty this move will bring?"

Jamie, whose work was recognized by Su Fan, was speechless before he had time to be happy because of the latter's cold questioning.

It can be heard that Su Fan is very dissatisfied with what he has done.

"That Quinn's father, Sean, obviously doesn't believe in gods and ghosts. If he throws away the evil-repelling talisman after you leave, what will you do?"

"Even if he didn't throw it, you went to room 514 to exorcise the evil spirits with only one evil-suppressing talisman, and you ran into an evil spirit. How would you subdue it? Would you fight it out until the only talisman broke, and then wait for death?"

The series of questions made Jamie break out in sweat.

The silence on the other end of the phone made him feel extremely stressed.

Su Fan was not deliberately putting pressure on Jamie, but was trying to sort out the whole process from what Jamie said.

When the latter went to exorcise the evil spirit, it happened to leave the room and go to kill the girl.

Weird shadows, a single-parent actress girl trying to communicate with spirits, and an empty room with only black footprints.

Su Fan quickly found the relevant film plot in his mind.

The third installment in the Lurking series.

It tells the story of a girl who misses her mother who died of cancer and accidentally invites an evil spirit.

The psychic throughout the series left a deep impression on Su Fan.

Iris, a reliable old lady, saved others from evil spirits many times, but finally died tragically at the hands of a strange evil spirit.

"Su?"

Jamie's cautious voice on the other end of the phone brought Su Fan back to reality from his memories.

"That bed is indeed something that the evil spirit used when it was alive. Although sticking it to the bed cannot directly kill the evil spirit, it can still cause some real damage to it."

"However, it will take some time to completely destroy the opponent."

"However, there should be a dedicated apartment manager in the apartment. They will clean the unused rooms every once in a while."

Jamie's expression suddenly changed when he heard Su Fan's reminder.

If the cleaning staff took the evil-repelling talisman away secretly...

"Su, I have to go back now and talk to you later."

Jamie wanted to hang up the phone, but found that Su Fan on the other end had ended the call before him.

The former does not have as many empty tubes now.

Whether he apologizes or makes amends, he must obtain Su Fan's forgiveness.

But the most important thing now is the evil-suppressing talisman pasted on the head of the bed!

Jamie immediately ran towards the door of his apartment!

On the other side, Su Fan welcomed a somewhat special guest in the antique shop.

"Hello."

The gentle and kind old lady greeted us with a smile on her face.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Elise."
