"Can I still get a scrub?"
At three in the morning, a girl, soaked from head to toe, asked in a low voice.
Lu Xing was a severe germaphobe, so she opened a bathhouse to protect her physical and mental health.
With all her employees off work, the owner decided, for once, to handle things herself.
Today's customer was a little strange. Her skin wasn't just pale, it was so pale it looked dark, and her hair reeked of something fishy, like a corpse that had been dead for three days.
Lu Xing frowned and scrubbed her back even harder. Then she felt that the skin on the girl's back was off. Thinking it was her imagination, she pressed down harder.
The next second, a layer of gray-white skin peeled off.
Lu Xing: "?"
Had she scrubbed the girl's skin off?!
The girl giggled and slowly turned her head 180 degrees, a vivid red color spilling from her mouth.
Lu Xing stared warily at her mouth! Her germophobia wouldn't tolerate anything filthy!
So she flung a bath scrubber right at the girl's face.
"?" The girl: "What the hell! Are you out of your mind?"
When she woke again, she had brought her bathhouse with her into a terrifying and dangerous game.
The horror game was just as baffled. The extra bathhouse building made its eyes go dark.
Looking at the blood-covered ghost in front of her, Lu Xing hesitated before pulling a bathtub out of her bathhouse.
How should a severe germaphobe deal with a filthy, chaotic environment?
A: Get rid of yourself.
B: Get rid of everyone else.
Lu Xing picked B without hesitation, then pinned the ghost in the bathtub and scrubbed it until it was spotless!
Bathtub Ghost: "?"
Thanks to the horror game's generous support for small businesses, Bathtub Ghost had two options:
A: Pay Lu Xing 300 points for the bath.
B: Work for Lu Xing to pay off the debt.
Bathtub Ghost: "?" I'm a weak, pitiful ghost! Where am I supposed to get points?! Aren't those only for players?!
Furious, Bathtub Ghost declared that this was absolutely impossible! It would never sell its soul for 300 points!
Later, players often saw a group of ghosts in suits, smelling sweet and clean, following behind Lu Xing. They were horrified and told her to run.
Lu Xing smiled. "Let me introduce everyone. This is the body-scrubbing technician, that's the massage technician, and the bathtub ghost behind me is in charge of the water."
