Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade novel Chapter 1247

Chapter 1247 The Little Red Spirit

Quade opened the door, cautiously poking his head inside. Upon noticing that the little girl in the red dress was not there, he finally felt at ease and opened the door widely.

“This is my home. Please come in and have a seat! It's not quite time yet, so I'll go boil some water,” said Quade as he took the thermos bottle to heat up some water.

Alex kept himself busy while waiting for Quade as he thoroughly inspected every corner of Quade's house, looking for anything out of the ordinary.

The house had minimal decor, without violating any Geomancy taboos. Although the hundred-square-meter house wasn't particularly spacious, it was quite adequate for a couple to live in.

A large wedding photo hung on the living room wall. Standing next to Quade was a woman who had an average appearance, but had a graceful aura to her. She was probably Quade's wife. It was undeniable that they really looked very much like a married couple.

At that moment, Quade came over with a glass of water. “Master, please sit down, take a break, and have some water!”

Alex nodded, took a seat on the sofa, and gently sipped from the cup in front of him. He then turned to Quade and asked, “Have you and your spouse been anywhere recently? Did you bring this inauspicious spirit back from somewhere?”

“My wife and I are just ordinary people. We don't have any extra money to travel on our days off. Most of the time, we'd head to work and go home after that. We haven't offended anyone during that period either. That girl in the red dress just appeared out of nowhere,” Quade explained with a sigh.

He never thought such a thing would happen to him. Although the spirit didn't harm them, it was enough to give him a headache.

Since there wasn't any useful information obtained from Quade, Alex didn't plan to stick around for long. It was only half past seven, and there was still an hour and a half until nine o'clock.

Taking advantage of the extra time, Alex asked Quade to help buy some talisman paper and some red ink. He then personally drew a few ghost-banishing talismans, ready to deal with the female spirit as soon as she appeared.

The hour and a half passed quickly. When the time on Alex's phone hit exactly nine o'clock, sure enough, a little girl in a red dress walked through the wall into the room. In terms of appearance, she was not frightening, but she did have paler skin than the average person. She was aimlessly drifting around the room, as if she was trapped there, wanting to leave but unable to do so.
