As Sun Fan washed his hands, he glanced at the subtitles in the live stream. It didn't take long for him to notice something was off after scanning the barrage of comments on the screen.
"Host, something seems wrong with the water in your pool!"
"Is it just me, or does that water look red? Have I been watching too long?"
"No! I see it too! It suddenly turned red!"
"It's as red as blood!"
Although Sun Fan wasn't afraid of ghosts, these comments made him uneasy. What was this about red water? It had to be a trick. He looked down and was immediately struck by a horrifying sight: a pair of hands covered in red, as if they had just been pulled from a pool of blood, dripping with fresh crimson.
Sun Fan was so startled that he fell to the ground. His mouth trembled, and he couldn't utter a word. The cameraman also witnessed this scene; if he hadn't remembered how expensive the camera was, he would have thrown it aside and run away.
Fans in Ruan Fuxi's live stream were equally terrified.
"Ruan Jie, I'm scared! Please comfort me!"
"I need a hug, Ruan Jie!"
"Look at how scared Sun Fan is; he's getting what he deserves!"
Gradually regaining his composure, Sun Fan looked at his hands again and found them clean, with nothing on them. He rubbed his eyes and glanced back at the pool, which still appeared as it had at first. The water was clear enough to see the mud at the bottom. There was no sign of blood anywhere.
Taking a deep breath to steady himself, Sun Fan thought about his purpose for coming to the villa. He addressed the live stream: "Everyone, don't be afraid. It was probably just a trick of the light; everything is back to normal now."
With that said, Sun Fan continued walking forward with the camera in hand.
He had no desire to linger by the pool any longer.
The photographer followed Sun Fan, his hesitation palpable.
"Brother Sun, how about we—"
He wanted to back out.
Being able to join Sun Fan for a supernatural exploration livestream was because he didn't believe in ghosts. But that didn’t mean he wasn’t afraid of them. Just moments ago, the water in the pool had turned a deep crimson, something he had witnessed with his own eyes. It was definitely not just a lighting issue as Sun Fan had suggested.
He genuinely wanted to run away.
Before the photographer could finish his sentence, Sun Fan interrupted him.
"How about what? Just follow me."
He had already come this far and even made a bet with Ruan Fuxi; there was no way he would give up so easily. It was just a little color change in the water—what was there to be afraid of?
Sun Fan tried to reassure himself with this reasoning, but the image of blood dripping from his hands still sent chills down his spine.
At that moment, it wasn't just Sun Fan and the photographer who were anxious; even the viewers in their livestream were starting to panic.
The online audience tried to act tough, refusing to show their fear.
"The host is right; it's just a lighting issue."
"Come on, keep sending those gifts!"
The fans in Ruan Fuxi's livestream scoffed at this bravado.
"You’ll regret it when you’re scared and crying later."
"The tougher you act now, the more desperate you'll be when you’re calling for help."
Meanwhile, Sun Fan pressed on. Having learned his lesson by the pool, he dared not touch anything recklessly again.
Finally, Sun Fan and the photographer made their way through the courtyard, pushed open the villa's front door, and stepped inside.
The shadows of the trees obscured the light, and the interior of the villa, neglected for many years, appeared shrouded in darkness.
