"I am useless!"
"I only found six fish, and it's not enough for you to eat. I am so useless! I let you down..."
The fool cried out of guilt.
Splash.
A faint sound of water echoed in the dim room.
The shadow in the fish tank reacted, slowly floating upward.
The three people outside the window didn't dare to blink.
"I'm sorry, Sister Narcissus, I'm so useless!"
Big Fool looked at the inside of the mosquito net with a face full of guilt, placing the bucket in front of the bed.
In the fish tank, there seemed to be a wet head floating on the surface, looking gently at Big Fool.
Below the head was a large, round shadow, its outline resembling a snail shell, but many times larger.
"Fool, why are you crying?"
A clear and gentle female voice, as soft as a silver bell, came from inside the thick mosquito net.
"Don't say sorry, you've already tried your best."
The woman's voice was filled with gentleness and tolerance, without any blame, her voice pleasant and as beautiful as music from heaven.
Hu Zi and Jingjian involuntarily swallowed their saliva.
Just listening to the voice was enough to spark one's imagination, what a beautiful woman could be inside?
Even Lu Fei felt that he had never heard such a pleasant voice before.
"But six fish are not enough for you to fill your stomach."
Big Fool wiped his tears; as soon as the melodious woman's voice was heard, an infatuated expression appeared on his face.
"It's okay! I remember all the good things you've done for me. Give it to me quickly, I'm hungry."
The woman's gentle voice carried a hint of urgency.
"Alright! Alright! We can't let Sister Narcissus go hungry!"
Big Fool hurriedly lifted the thick layers of mosquito netting, brought the bucket onto the bed, and placed all the dead human bones inside the fish tank.
"Sister Narcissus, eat quickly."
"Thank you, Big Fool Brother, you're the best to me!"
The wet woman's head seemed to smile sweetly at Big Fool, and then slid back into the fish tank.
Immediately after.
A spine-chilling sound of chewing came from the fish tank.
Crunch, crunch!
The hair on the three people outside the window stood on end.
However, a happy and content smile appeared on Big Fool's face, as if serving his Narcissus sister was an incredibly honorable thing.
But after a while.
A faint sigh sounded from the fish tank.
Big Fool's heart tightened with concern, and he hurriedly asked, "Narcissus, are you still hungry?"
"It's okay, foolish brother." The woman's voice still held no hint of blame, but instead carried a touch of seductive charm, "You've worked hard today. Lie down and go to sleep, let me take good care of you."
Big Fool was about to say something more, but as soon as he heard the word 'sleep,' he couldn't hold back. He hastily took off all his clothes and lay down next to the fish tank.
"Sleep now." The woman said gently.
"Sister Narcissus, I really like you..."
Big Fool, naked, hugged the cold fish tank, his face full of infatuation.
The three people outside the window found this scene a bit shocking, but thankfully there was a mosquito net blocking the view, making it less clear.
They were both curious and excited about what would happen next.
It wasn't that they wanted to see a romantic movie, but rather, they were wondering if the freshwater snail girl would really come out and mate with Big Fool?
However.
What happened next left them utterly surprised.
Within just two seconds, Big Fool started snoring.
Fallen asleep!
The three of them looked at each other in bewilderment.
They originally thought that the Snail Maiden would seduce Big Fool and take the opportunity to suck his yang energy, but the water jar was completely calm, with the black shadow quietly lying at the bottom.
There was no sign of it trying to climb out.
Could it be that it really is a kind-hearted Snail Maiden, who does not harm people but instead helps them?
Just as the three were full of questions.
Big Fool suddenly sat up straight from the bed.
He pulled back the mosquito net, walked out with his eyes closed, opened the wardrobe, and rummaged through it for something.
The three outside the window quickly squeezed to the side of the window, continuing to observe.
Big Fool took out a pink dress from the wardrobe, put it on, then put on long black curly hair, black stockings, and red high heels.
Then, he walked up to the mirror, closed his eyes, and posed, raising his little finger in a coquettish manner.
The three people outside the window were struck dumb by the scene.
What on earth was going on?
Wasn't he supposed to be possessed by some evil spirit? Why was he suddenly cross-dressing?
Dasa, feeling quite pleased with himself, admired his reflection in the mirror for a while, then swayed his waist as he walked out of the bedroom. He picked up a mop and a cloth, and started cleaning the house with great effort, making it spotlessly clean.
The three people outside the window stood there with their jaws dropped.
It turned out that...
The woman's shadow that had flashed by the window was Dasa himself!
And the one doing the cleaning was also him!
However, throughout all these activities, Dasa kept his eyes closed.
It's not sleepwalking.
It's possession!
This is clearly the handiwork of that freshwater snail maiden in the fish tank.
Through this method, it made Dasha think he had found a treasure.
Such a cunning and sinister entity!
He was so grateful, but all along, he was the one doing all the household chores.
Lu Fei and the other two exchanged glances, feeling even more sympathy for Dasha.
After Dasha finished cleaning, he wore a pink floral dress and red high heels, and walked into the kitchen, busily clinking away.
Before long.
The enticing aroma of simmering meat wafted from the kitchen.
The fragrance seeped through the door crack, into the noses of Lu Fei and the other two, causing their mouths to water.
"That fool has never gone out to buy meat. What on earth is he stewing?"
At the same time, the three of them felt a chill down their spines.
The kitchen was in their blind spot, completely out of sight.
"What he's eating can't be his own..."
Hu Zi didn't finish his sentence, frightened by his own terrifying speculation.
After a while.
From the kitchen came the sound of Dasa eating meat and drinking soup.
Then, there was the sound of washing pots and dishes.
After finishing his chores, Dasa took off his dress and high heels, removed his wig and stockings, and returned to bed to continue his deep sleep.
The entire house fell silent.
There should be no more incidents tonight.
Lu Fei and the other two returned to Master Mo's house by scaling the wall.
"Manager Lu, how is Da Sha? Did you see the true face of that malevolent spirit?" Master Mo, who had been anxiously waiting, hurriedly stood up from his chair.
"The Snail Maiden hid in bed, and we didn't get a clear look, but we did notice some other abnormalities with Da Sha." The expressions on the faces of the three were very odd.
Master Mo became tense immediately: "What happened to him?"
Lu Fei glanced at Hu Zi and Jing Jian: "You two tell him."
The two of them, one talking after the other, described the situation of Da Sha in vivid detail, like a crosstalk performance.
After hearing their story, Master Mo was in a daze, his mouth hanging open for a long time.
"Actually, sleepwalking is a minor issue; the most terrifying thing is, what exactly is Da Sha eating?" A hint of seriousness appeared on Lu Fei's face, "No matter what, we can't let Da Sha continue like this. Tomorrow, we must find a way to wake him up!"
The three of them spent half the night at Master Mo's house.
The next day, at dusk.
Da Sha, just like yesterday, carried a red bucket and rode his bike out of the alley.
Lu Fei and the other two followed closely behind him.
When they reached the riverside, they immediately surrounded him from all sides.
"What are you going to do?"
Seeing the unfriendly looks on their faces, Da Sha trembled with fear.
