Master Grim Reaper Makes His Debut in Center Position

Chapter 13

“Maybe.” Xu Haoming didn’t know how to explain his experience to Lu Xu. Lu Xu’s behavior made him think that he really couldn’t see the spirits. Instead of admitting that he had seen ghosts, it was probably better to bury his head into sand and pretend nothing had happened.

Earlier in the afternoon, he had mocked Xu Lele’s superstitions. But not even a day later, his face was raw from the pain of reality. 

Seeing Xu Haoming’s face alternate between red and white, Lu Xu guessed that his worldviews were currently rapidly collapsing and being rebuilt.

“Master Lu Xu…” After Xu Haoming returned to his dorm room, He Xinghua tried to plead with Lu Xu. “We really didn’t want to harm anyone…”

The other two had learned of Lu Xu’s identity from their fellow ghosts and were terrified thinking of how they had been caught in the action of scaring someone.

There were surveillance cameras in the hallway; Lu Xu didn’t want to appear too obvious. He moved his mouth slightly to toss out the words, “Report to the small storage room after I finish recording tomorrow night. Let’s talk then.” 

“Okay okay okay, we’ll listen to everything Master has to say.” 

Tao Yingbo had existed for a while longer than his three didis. Seeing that Lu Xu didn’t make things difficult for them, his courage rose up quite a bit. “Master Lu Xu, what made you come participate in an idol survival show?”  

Based on how Lu Xu had spoken to Xu Haoming, he obviously didn’t want to reveal his identity.

Lu Xu’s face lit up with a hint of a smile as he thought about how large of an order Ji Xiunian was. “It’s required for work.” This was enough of an answer; there was no need for him to report what type of work it was.

Lu Xu didn’t say anything and Tao Yingbo and crew didn’t dare ask for clarification. They only watched Lu Xu go back to his dorm with respectful gazes. 

“We should be safe now, right?” He Xinghua propped his face up in his hand and let out a long sigh of relief. He didn’t forget to say emotionally, “I said before that the trainee was Master Lu Xu, but no one believed me.”

The other three had been thoroughly shocked, and felt wronged. “It was your ghost friend who said with utter conviction that grim reapers only appear in morgues, not idol survival shows.”

“I guess that’s right too.” He Xinghua scratched his head, trying his hardest to turn his thoughts around. “Guys, what kind of work requires a grim reaper to participate in an idol survival show?”

Before Lu Xu had appeared, they had met grim reapers from the southwest district. If it wasn’t for the strength of their attachments, they would have been sent directly to the underworld road by the grim reapers. 

In everyone’s eyes, grim reapers were existences that connected life and death. They were soul-collecting transfer machines. No matter how they thought about it, ‘idol survival show’ and ‘grim reaper’ did not go together.
