Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

Sienna smiled bitterly: "If I had any trump card, I wouldn't keep it until now."

"Then...then let's open this door?"

"Are you sure the monster behind the door won't eat us too?"

"Maybe...maybe it's with us?"

Maria was about to stuff her body into the basement door, but at this moment, Maria's movements suddenly stopped.

Maria tried to turn her head, but her body blocked the door tightly and she couldn't turn her head at all.

"What? Damn you bastard, don't touch me..."

Maria looked very angry and wanted to kick away anything that touched her from behind.

But the next moment, Maria's face suddenly showed a very painful look.

Everyone noticed Maria's abnormality. Maria's expression changed from painful to frightened. She held on to the basement entrance door tightly.

"Sienna...save me...save me..." Maria became completely panicked: "save me..."

The next moment, Maria seemed to be forcefully pulled out by some force, and the door to the basement entrance was also forcefully pulled away.

It took her more than ten minutes to stuff half of her body in, but it only took a moment to pull her out.

Then, everyone heard Maria's miserable wails coming from outside the basement.

This process was very fast. Within a few seconds, Maria's wailing had disappeared, and silence fell outside.

"Yes...what is it?"

"That hybrid of evil spirits is coming..." Sienna wasn't very sure either.

Dong dong dong——

The sound of footsteps came from outside the basement, and a figure that made everyone feel amiable appeared at the entrance of the basement.

"Hello everyone, it looks like I'm back a little late."

Everyone's eyes widened and they looked at Chen Zhao who suddenly appeared in shock.

"Fortunately, you didn't open this door." Chen Zhao walked into the basement and pulled out the key on the magic door.

"Oriental, you..."

"Chen, it's great to have you back." David hugged Chen Zhao excitedly.

"Where's Maria? And where are those evil spirits?" Sienna looked at Chen Zhao in disbelief.

"Don't worry, they are all gone." Chen Zhao said calmly.

"What do you mean they are gone? You have driven them away? This is impossible. There are hundreds of evil spirits, and many of them are terrible evil spirits."

Compared to being rescued in vain, what Sienna was even more unwilling to accept was that Chen Zhao actually eliminated the evil spirit.

嘤——

At this moment, Aisha in the wheelchair made a soft voice.

"Aisha...Aisha, are you awake?" Bird shouted ecstatically.

"Dad...where is this?"

Sienna frowned and looked at the time: "It's not even one o'clock in the morning, is it over?"

"Come out, everyone. Are you going to stay in the basement all night?"

When Fali walked out of the basement, she saw a mess in the living room.

"Chen, I want you to explain what is going on and what happened to them?"

Chen Zhao sat on the sofa. This sofa was the only intact sofa in the living room.

"Haven't you already seen it all? What else do you want me to explain?"

"How did you eliminate Maria? How did you get rid of those evil spirits? You couldn't have done it."

"Okay, okay, I can't do it, okay, is it time for you to leave my house?"

"Chen, can you let me stay for one night?" David obviously didn't have the courage to walk at night again.

"Mr. Chen, you can't let me take Aisha out so late, right?" Bird's reason was also very good.

"What about you? Miss."

Sienna hesitated for a moment: "I want to stay too, I have many questions that need you to answer."

"I'm sorry, I have no obligation to answer your question, Mr. Bird. You can take your daughter to the guest room to sleep, or you can use my bath towel. There are disposable toiletries in the bathroom, but there is no change of clothes."

"Thank you, you saved my daughter twice, thank you."

"It's just convenient."

"Dad, what happened? Aren't we going home?" Aisha was nestled in Bird's arms. She looked very awake and seemed to have fully recovered.

"Chen, where should I sleep?" David immediately came up and asked, "If you don't have enough room here, I don't mind sharing a room with others."

With that said, David turned to look at Sienna.

"Here." Chen Zhao pointed to the floor: "The living room."

"Isn't it?"

"I'm very tired. I need to take a rest." Chen Zhao turned around and left.

"Wait a minute..." Fali pulled Chen Zhao back: "You are not allowed to leave until the matter is explained clearly."

"You've seen everything you should and shouldn't see. What else do you want to know?"

"What is hidden in the basement? I mean behind that door."

"I remember saying, this is a haunted house, right?"

"Is there really a ghost here?"

"Anyway, as long as you don't open that door casually, the things inside won't escape, at least don't open it when I'm not around."

Everyone swallowed, they were all using their imaginations in their minds.

After Bird took his daughter back to the room, everyone began to take turns washing themselves.

Then all of them would be so carefree in their pajamas or shirtless, sitting in the living room chatting.

Not long after, Bird came out after putting his daughter to sleep. He seemed to be much more relaxed.

Everyone gathered in a circle, drinking beer and eating snacks.

"Chen, I really want to thank you this time... Of course, Miss Sienna, thank you for your efforts as well."

"I don't want to talk about this topic anymore. I'm a doctor, and psychics are just part-time."

"If this is a part-time job for you, then what am I, a professional witch?"

"Are you a witch?" Fali looked at Sienna with bright eyes.

"Yes, this is my business card. If you need to remove spirits or summon ancestors, you can contact me. By the way, I also sell magic potions." Sienna immediately took out a business card and handed it to Fa Li: "Or it's divination. I can also help you contact a fortune teller."

"Then do you teach magic? I want to learn magic too."

"You can't teach it, you don't have the talent."

"Chen, can you check my daughter's body? I'm worried about what sequelae she will have."

"It's okay to check the body, but if it's psychological trauma, I'm afraid there's nothing I can do. I'm not a psychiatrist, and I charge a fee."

"Well, how much does it cost? I just lost my job recently..."

"If it's just a physical examination, it's one hundred dollars. Also, I only accept cash, and there will be no invoice. I don't have a medical license."

"Chen, are you an illegal doctor?" David asked in surprise.

"What, are you going to catch me?"

"Please, how can I arrest you? You are not in my jurisdiction anyway." David rolled his eyes.

"A physical examination costs one hundred dollars. Is it so expensive?"

"You can't even afford a hundred dollars?"
