Someone tiny popped out and waved to them. “Hello everyone.” She looked at Josh and said, “Hey, you stepped on

my skirt just now.” She complained, “You didn’t even know I was behind you.” Josh was terrified to find out that a

spirit was standing right behind him. “You… Why are you following us?” Josh stared at the little girl. She was the

daughter of the couple that was holding the ashes jar; she was Jannat. She came closer to Lilly and said, “I’m bored

after my parents buried me, so I’m here to play with you.”

Josh muttered, “Why me?” He wondered why he was always the one who ended up being hurt! Why do I feel like all

these spirits always stare at me? This is not the first time I’ve experienced this!

Jannat answered, “Because you’re beautiful.” She continued to say, “This little girl is also beautiful, but I feel like I’m

being disrespectful looking at her.” She mumbled, not knowing that this was her inborn fear as a spirit of the Ruler

of Hell. So she did not dare stare at her. But it was different with Josh. “You can see me, and we’re of the same

species, yet you’re a human. So you got me interested!” Since when am I the same species as her? Humans and

spirits are completely different.

Lilly could not hold back her laughter, and she explained, “The spirits can see humans, but usually humans can’t

see them. The spirits are lonely; naturally, they’ll be happy realizing humans can see them.” Since she’s overjoyed,

she mistook Josh for being of the same species as her.

Josh was speechless. Is it my fault to be able to see the spirits?” But humans are different from spirits! You’re dead,

so you shouldn’t be lingering in the human world. Aren’t you afraid of me catching you?” He threatened her. Jannat

asked curiously, “How are you going to catch me?” He then took out a lot of strange tools from his bag, and he

answered her fiercely, “I can still catch you if I want!”

She looked at him warily and thought to herself, I can’t go yet; I still have something important to do. I’m not afraid

of him, but the other two… She carefully glanced at Pablo and Lilly and realized that they were both staring at her.

She ran away in panic! She was a child with a resentful spirit; although she could periodically come out into the

sunlight, she usually hid in the dark. She was hiding underneath the tree.

Josh chased after her with his so-called tools! But Lilly stopped him. “Josh, do you know why there are pine trees in

the cemetery?” she asked him. Josh felt weird for her to ask such a question, and he asked, “Why?” What does this

have to do with me chasing that little resentful spirit? Lilly replied, “Because pine trees are full of positive energy, it

could cancel off the bad aura of the cemetery.” But the pine tree would be planted some distance away from the

grave to avoid affecting the dead.

Josh instantly understood her words and asked, “So, you’re implying that spirits shouldn’t be able to get near the

pine tree? But this little resentful spirit dares to run toward it.” And she was hiding inside it the entire time to listen

to the story. Lilly nodded and said, “Yes, she’s got something on her, and you might not be able to handle her.” Lilly

must be correct. Ugrh! Why can’t I do it?

“Then, what can I do?” He looked at her and asked, “How can I catch her?” It was common for the spirits at the

cemetery to linger around, especially for the ancestors to appear during festivals. But Jannat did not seem like a

normal ghost, and something bad might happen if she continued to do things her way. Lilly answered, “Let’s go

after her and ask why she isn’t leaving yet.” The two of them ran together.

Pablo looked at Lilly with a smile. Blake suddenly asked, “Is this where you die?” The Simple Cemetery used to be an

abandoned field, and history once recorded that a betrayer of the country was killed here. He did not expect the

story to be real. It was rumored that once the betrayer was killed, the king built an octagonal tower here with

guards patrolling. The tower did not have a name, so the residents here named it the Simple Tower. This tower was

slowly forgotten by the people as time passed, and it became a stop for passersby to rest for a while. And three

thousand years had passed; the tower was in ruin; it was only left with a foundation. Now, it has been developed

into a cemetery known as the Simple Cemetery.

Pablo turned around and answered, “It’s slightly further; it’s around there.” He pointed at what he was staring at

just now. Blake replied, “Oh, that’s the parking lot.” There was supposed to be a slope, and it was being flattened

into a parking lot. Flowers were being planted around it to beautify it. Pablo nodded. And Blake asked, “Well, do you

want me to pray to you?” Pablo was totally speechless.
