A bizarre case of a ghost abducting young girls shattered the years-long peace of Yuejian District.
Ling Nai, a prime target of the culprit, encountered the masked ghost one dark and stormy night.
The ghost's face matched the rumors exactly. It stood barely an inch from Ling Nai, its eerie wails lingering by her ear.
The little girl blinked her captivating amber eyes and asked,
"Big brother, would you like to buy some flowers?"
The ghost froze. So did the neighbors.

After an accident on a mission drained Zha Zuo of his demonic power, he was forced back into his juvenile form.
In his mind, humans were naturally weak and kind.
Being taken in was only to be expected. Zha Zuo: I've successfully infiltrated human society.
He'd heard that people in the human world kept pets, but how could he be compared to an ordinary cat?
A thousand-year-old general of the demon race, decorated with honors and undefeated in battle.
"Give me your paw." Ling Nai, tiny as she was, crouched in front of him.
"Meow!" The little black cat's lips curled up, and, on reflex, he held out his paw. The soft pink pads landed in Ling Nai's palm, blooming like a flower.
Zha Zuo thought that since he'd been taken in, he would be pampered and waited on.
But aside from being hopelessly clumsy, the little girl had a father who found fault with him at every turn.
Father and daughter were both forgetful, so Zha Zuo became the landlord's professional digging cat, often rummaging through the whole house to find things they needed.
Most infuriating of all was Ling Nai's father. The first time he heard Zha Zuo meow, he sneered, "How can a cat sound so awful?"
Zha Zuo pulled his mouth to one side, putting on a stinky cat face whenever he saw him.
Hmph, you old geezer. I have an official position in the demon realm. No one dares talk to me like that.
After looking at him for a while, the father finally saw how much Zha Zuo disliked him. He thought for a second and said, "I'll get you neutered tomorrow."
Zha Zuo puffed up like a sea urchin, his pupils trembling in shock: ?!!
You old geezer!!!
General Zha Zuo, at the prime age of two thousand five hundred, nearly had his balls snipped.
Zha Zuo held a grudge, and the seed of revenge took deep root in his heart. After sneaking Ling Nai away for a long while, he returned home, opened the door, and smiled at her father, imitating Ling Nai's tone: "Daddy."
Her father: ?
[Ling Nai fact-checks every day: You're saying this brat who looks like a high schooler, childish and rebellious, is the demon race's mighty General?
What? Ahahahaha! That's obviously our clingy little cat.]
