Chapter 27 Chapter 27: Female Ghost
Mitch was shocked. No way. She had only recited the mantra once. How could she have succeeded? It was a gifted perversion.
Susie's eyes widened as she looked around. Wow, the world had become a lot clearer.
Mr. Desk Lamp was with a circle of light, and a mayfly lady quietly crawled into his circle of light. Granny Laurel was having a party outside the window, and a few ants were carrying cake crumbs and running as fast as they could on their six legs.
A woman was also hanging from the window with her eyes staring straight at her.
Susie stared at her while the ghost poked half her head in and watched Susie with a sly glint under her eyes.
"You can see me? Are you afraid of me?"
Hearing those questions, Susie violently grabbed the quilt over her head and shouted, "Master, this aunt is so ugly."
Mitch believed what she said was true this time.
This female ghost was wandering, just passing by. He saw that she was fragile, with less than two days to dissipate, so he ignored her. Who knew Susie would see it?
A dark aura flashed under Mitch's eyes, suddenly excited. What a great little disciple he had taken on.
"Juicy, let me see your potential. Let's take in this ugly girl ghost."
The female ghost was furious. She screamed shrilly and lunged.
Mitch grabbed her lengthy hair, saying, "Good Susie, chant with Master."
Then, Susie followed.
But by this time, Mitch had let go of his hand, and the ghost lunged at Susie under inertia.
Susie subconsciously raised her hand to a palm, and the female ghost flew out a long way.

Mitch quickly grabbed the ghost by the hair and yanked her back.
"Very good. Juicy, well done."
Susie looked at her hands innocently. What happened to the hand? Did she slap it out herself?
With a twinkle in his eye, Mitch added, "Here, go on. Fart Attack."
The good student, Susie, was led astray by her absent-minded Master, then she went on again. The result was that the female ghost, like a balloon, was popped by Susie's fart.
Susie was so surprised that she covered her buttocks.
The female ghost was startled. What about playing? She was passing by. That's too much, right? Take her live teaching?
Mitch was more excited because he never thought he got a treasure.
He finally understood why the old artist man was so excited after taking Susie as his student.
Mitch raised his hand, and a gourd only the size of a fingernail appeared in his hand out of thin air, hanging on the red string of Susie's wrist.
"This is the soul gourd. It can collect souls and evil ghosts. You will use this soul gourd to help me in the future, OK?" Mitch was so relieved and felt that this little apprentice was worth it.
Susie stared at it and asked, "Why do you want to collect ghosts?"
The female ghost struggled and also asked indignantly, "Yes. Why do you want to take me."
He didn't even confiscate her when she was peeking through the window.
Mitch did not answer, rubbed Susie's hair, and said very perfunctorily, "Child does not ask so many questions."
Susie bristled and turned her head to look at the female ghost.
Because the ghost was too ugly for her, she covered her eyes with a hand, leaving a finger slit, barely looking.
"Who are you, and why are you so ugly?"
The female ghost struggled to break free but was in vain, so she said, "I am your uncle David's former bricklayer, called May. It was retribution after doing bad things."
Susie was stunned. Uncle David?
Her face instantly became severe, while the tiny person frowned thoughtfully, "What bad things did you do to uncle David?"
Female ghosts did not know why she spoke out, even if she did not want to tell her.
"Six years ago, your aunt Mara gave me $20,000 to sprinkle some salt on David's tea, and I did it. Then as I got the money, the roof of the construction site fell down a large piece of plate, smashed me to death." She still felt unlucky now.
Susie wondered why she had to add salt to her uncle's tea. Why did she die just after she got paid?
Mitch narrowed his eyes and said lightly, "Kid needs to go to bed early. Don't talk." Then he sent the female ghost into the gourd.
The red string emitted a faint red light and quickly disappeared into Susie's wrist.
Susie lay back down and yawned, and fell asleep.
Alex cocked his head and gagged, "Water, add some salt."

Some people slept well this night, and some had difficulty sleeping.
Mara lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
When Lucy was born, her mother did not care about her words. So, when she was talking to her that she overheard them plotting to drug David. What a coincidence that David overheard it.
David said he wanted a divorce then, but how could she be willing? She had just given birth to Lucy. How could she get a divorce with two children?
Therefore, over the years, she insisted that David misheard her and that her mother was joking and talking nonsense.
But David approached Martin and found out that there was something fishy about the accidental death of May, the female worker who helped her to drug David that year.
When Mara thought of it, she felt more annoyed, but fortunately, May died cleanly. After so many years, it was hard to check.
Unless May could come back to life. But how was that possible?
Mara didn't want to divorce. Her feelings were real, and she couldn't let go of her two children. Why would she divorce?
Mara didn't feel she had a problem but thought only that Susie's arrival had upset the balance. Everything was fine before, and it was in a mess like this once she arrived.
This kid was so annoying.
Mara did not like this niece, and even a flash of thought was in her mind, kicking Susie out.

The following day.
It was nine o'clock when Susie woke up. She rubbed her eyes sleepily and lay on the balcony to watch Craig watering the flowers downstairs.
"Grandpa. Good morning." Susie grabbed the railing and poked her little head out.
Craig was in a soothing mood and smiled, "Good morning, Susie. Don't poke your head out. It's dangerous. Come on downstairs and eat."
Susie tried to take her little head back but found herself stuck.
Susie tried the left side and the right side. How did she get in?
Then, Susie could only grab the railing with mixed feelings, "Grandpa."
Craig was looking up at her, "What's wrong?"
Susie blinked innocently and said, "It seemed I got stuck."
