After signing the contract, Ye Chuan glanced at Ke Ning’s stats panel. That string of zeros didn’t seem to match an S-grade tenant at all. But since she had already been classified as S-grade, this girl must possess extraordinary qualities far beyond ordinary people.
【Obtained Ke Ning’s related item, added to inventory】
Huh?
An item drop?
Ye Chuan opened his inventory and found a strange door-shaped icon.
【Item: Anywhere Door
Can transport the user to any previously visited location, ignoring all spatial constraints (3/3)
Rechargeable】
Hmm?
This item dropped by Ke Ning actually seems pretty impressive.
Ignoring all spatial constraints—though Ye Chuan couldn’t immediately think of a use for it, it undoubtedly proved Ke Ning’s inherent value.
The only downside was the lack of points. While Ye Chuan wasn’t particularly short on tenant funds right now, he still needed points to exchange for those powerful items.
“Since I’m a tenant now, where’s my room?” Ke Ning asked, her hands tucked into the pockets of her white lab coat.
“I’ll prepare one for you. What kind of facilities do you need?”
Ke Ning thought for a moment. “I’ll need some equipment for spatial experiments. A time machine would be ideal.”
Ye Chuan twitched his lips. “Do you really think I’d have something like that?”
“No?” Ke Ning tilted her head slightly. The Rubik’s cube beside her rotated, and a translucent blue window popped up in front of her.
She tapped a few times before speaking again. “I need a table—three meters long, seventy-five centimeters wide, and eighty-five centimeters tall. Also, a computer from this era will suffice.”
“That’s all?”
“Yes, just those for now.”
Ye Chuan nodded and pulled out his phone, opening the renovation mode. Both the computer and the table were easy enough to arrange.
A short while later, Ye Chuan led Ke Ning to the room next to Lan Xiaoke’s.
Pushing the door open, they were greeted by a white-themed room furnished with a large table, a computer, a bed, a wardrobe, and other basic furniture.
“How’s this?” Ye Chuan asked Ke Ning.
“Thirty-four minutes,” Ke Ning replied.
Ye Chuan blinked. “What do you mean?”
“From the moment I made my request until now, thirty-four minutes have passed, and you’ve already prepared everything I asked for.” Ke Ning adjusted her glasses, her interest clearly piqued. “How did you do it?”
“You have secrets you can’t share with me, and so do I,” Ye Chuan said with a smirk.
“…Interesting.” Ke Ning smiled faintly and didn’t press further.
“Now, let me introduce you to the household.” Since Ke Ning was moving in, Ye Chuan figured he should give her a rundown.
“This is Luo Xi—she’s the one who found you and brought you here. She’s not a tenant; she lives nearby.”
Luo Xi gave a sweet smile.
Ke Ning averted her gaze.
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing. She’s just too bright. Not very friendly to a gloomy character like me.” Ke Ning squinted as if the sunlight was blinding her.
Luo Xi: “OvO?”
What does that mean?
“And this is Bai Qianshuang. Like you, she’s from another world,” Ye Chuan explained. “But she comes from a place called the Tianxuan Continent—a world without modern civilization, where cultivators exist.”
Bai Qianshuang gave a slight nod.
“A cultivator?” Ke Ning studied Bai Qianshuang closely.
“And this is Lan Xiaoke. You might not be able to see her—just an ordinary girl who choked to death. A ghost.” Ye Chuan patted Lan Xiaoke’s head.
“I don’t think you need to emphasize the ‘choked to death’ part,” Lan Xiaoke grumbled.
A ghost?
Even with Ke Ning’s vast knowledge, she hadn’t expected Ye Chuan’s home to house not just a cultivator but also a ghost.
“Is the existence of ghosts surprising to you?” Ye Chuan asked, noticing Ke Ning’s stunned expression.
Ke Ning adjusted her glasses and calmly explained,
“Ghosts don’t exist. What people commonly refer to as ghostly phenomena can be explained through the following factors—”
“Hallucinations are a common cause. Most people experience them at some point but don’t realize it, mistaking them for ghosts.”
“‘Sleep paralysis,’ for instance, occurs when the body enters a dormant state during sleep while the brain remains active. If the brain sends movement commands but the muscles don’t respond in time, it creates the sensation of being unable to move, often accompanied by hallucinations that people interpret as a ghostly presence.”
“Then there are physiological factors. Abnormal activity in specific brain regions can trigger ghost-like experiences. Temporal lobe epilepsy, for example, can cause complex hallucinations—seeing figures or hearing voices that aren’t there.”
“Even late-stage Alzheimer’s patients may experience hallucinations due to brain dysfunction, such as seeing deceased loved ones.”
“Lastly, environmental factors. Magnetic fields play a significant role.”
“Some so-called haunted locations may have natural or artificial magnetic fields that stimulate or interfere with the temporal lobe, leading to auditory or visual distortions that people interpret as ghostly encounters.”
Ke Ning delivered this entire explanation in one breath. But when Lan Xiaoke floated closer and placed a chilly hand on her arm, the sudden cold sent shivers down Ke Ning’s spine, making her let out a startled squeak.
“Eek?!”
“Hehehe, what’s all that mumbo jumbo? Take this!” Delighted by Ke Ning’s reaction, Lan Xiaoke cackled mischievously.
“An actual ghost?! Impossible!” Ke Ning took a step back, still feeling the lingering chill.
Seeing how frightened Ke Ning was, Lan Xiaoke finally felt the thrill of being a real ghost. Grinning, she leaned in and licked Ke Ning’s cheek with her long tongue.
“Slurp~ Mmm~ The taste of fear~”
“Eek?!!!!!!”
“The evidence is right in front of you. She can touch you, talk to you—you just can’t see her yet,” Ye Chuan clarified.
It took Ke Ning a while to calm down, but she eventually accepted the existence of ghosts.
“Fine. It seems there’s still much to study.” Adjusting her glasses, Ke Ning regained her composure. “I don’t want to leave anymore.”
Clearly, both Bai Qianshuang and Lan Xiaoke had captured Ke Ning’s curiosity.
“Good.” Ye Chuan smiled.
With a new tenant joining, the house had become livelier than ever.
