[A resourceful, life-preserving coward x a split-body ghost who acts so well he'll make you cry]
Quanzhi woke up and found herself transmigrated into a horror game.
The town was closed off, and the castle heavily guarded. The butler tossed her a rag doll and ordered mechanically, "The young master can be a little mischievous. You should go help him wash up now."
Quanzhi looked down at the filthy, bloodstained rag doll in her hands. Not daring to disobey, she walked into the bathroom at the end of the corridor.
A strange boy was locked in a cage there, soaking wet. His dark eyes stared fixedly at her hands as she washed the doll.
As she moved, the boy's face flushed in the cramped cage, and he shifted restlessly.
That night, Quanzhi woke from a nightmare. The doll was perched on her shoulder, and a cold hand was gripping her ankle.
She screamed as she was dragged to the edge of the bed, where she looked in terror at the boy kneeling beside it.
His wet cheek rubbed gently against her knee, again and again. His voice was clingy and dependent: "...Mommy."
Quanzhi broke out in goosebumps, then felt a chilling gaze behind her.
She stiffly turned around and saw that a human-shaped statue had appeared in the corner. Its eyes were fixed on the bed.
