Concern

"The 'they' that the owner of the diary was referring to… who are 'they'?" Su Yu asked.

"Not specified whether a male or a female…" Duan Yuan muttered.

"Since this was a child who was writing… the 'they' that the child is referring to could also mean that they highly respect the one who they are referring to." Su Yu said.

Duan Yuan nodded in agreement. "That's right." He muttered as he pondered. "But, this makes it hard for us to know who is the evil ghost." He said.

Su Yu paused. He understood what Duan Yuan meant. That is, the 'they' in the diary that frightened the child should be the evil ghost that is haunting the Purple Old Manor!

"Then… the 'they' here should be 'he'?" Su Yu guessed.

"Why do you say so?" Duan Yuan asked.

"Because the room where we went to earlier and where the evil ghost came out to attack us – " Su Yu spoke. " – it was a boy's room." He told Duan Yuan.

Duan Yuan was surprised. "Really?!" he exclaimed. He can't see, so he didn't see it.

"Yes." Su Yu nodded. His expression is solemn. He knows that Duan Yuan is blind but he doesn't say it to not hurt the other's feelings.

Even if Duan Yuan is not sensitive unlike the other blind people who get angry and even cry because they also have low esteem for being disabled… it doesn't mean that Duan Yuan has no feelings. Even if Duan Yuan looks indifferent to his disability, Su Yu could see that this is due to Duan Yuan having great pride (in a positive way). And Su Yu does not want to crush this pride that Duan Yuan must have painstakingly built over the years. His audience could also see it thus they don't make fun of Duan Yuan's disability. This is also because they have high morals.

Even if Duan Yuan can't see the livestream, that does not mean that they could freely talk about him behind his back to mock him or insult him for being blind. This is no different than being a bully. And neither Su Yu nor his fans, and audience, are like that. They even scold the others, especially the black fans, to not bully Duan Yuan.

"The room's interior design is that of a boy's room with blue wallpapers and sports figures pasted on it." Su Yu spoke. "The toys are all the toys used or played with by the boys." He added.

"And the clothes?" Duan Yuan asked.

"Also for the boys, including the shoes." Su Yu answered.

Duan Yuan nodded in understanding. "So it really should be a boy… that evil ghost." He said.

"Yes. I also found a toy train under that bed." Su Yu said.

Duan Yuan was shocked. "You peeked under the bed… went under the bed?!" he exclaimed. Even if he has never watched any horror movies nor read any horror novels… he has some knowledge about them.

And one of the classic scenes is the under-the-bed scene where the ghost would pop out for a jump scare. So, Su Yu should have experienced this, especially since that evil ghost has a disgusting taste of enjoyment.

"Did something happen?! Were you hurt?!" Duan Yuan worriedly asked Su Yu. He clenched his fists. Since he is blind, then he definitely can't see whether Su Yu was injured or not. Especially if Su Yu lies to him in case, so as to not worry him.

That feeling of helplessness rushed back again into his heart. He has never felt this weak and pathetic. He prided himself as an exorcist, and he even vowed to protect Su Yu. Yet what happened to Su Yu after he was separated from him? Duan Yuan could only imagine.

He has never felt this ashamed in his whole life. He is the exorcist between the two, yet he was easily taken away by the evil ghost earlier. It seems that he still lacked training, and Duan Yuan could retrain himself and even work harder. But, this mistake has already been written down as a mark of shame in his entire career.

But even so, Duan Yuan's heart is still strong. Instead of feeling down, he will use this to rise so that this won't ever happen again. This time, he will definitely protect Su Yu!

"No, I wasn't…" Su Yu answered and patted Duan Yuan's shoulder to assure him. "Hm? What's wrong with you?" he asked when he saw that Duan Yuan's expression is not right. He… looked angry? He thought, feeling surprised. Why does this young man look angry? He feels puzzled.

But, the online audience who are watching and also saw Duan Yuan's expression have other opinions.

"This… the anchor's friend is suddenly angry… what happened?!"

"I don't think the anchor has said anything wrong… but why is his friend angry?"

"Hey, don't say that the anchor's friend is possessed?!"

"What?! Is it true?! But, looking at the expression of the anchor's friend… it seems true."

"No, that can't be… the anchor's friend looked fine earlier when he and the anchor were reunited!"

"Then, how can you explain his sudden angry expression?"

This sparked the netizens' discussion. But, in another corner of the internet, some netizens who are also watching Su Yu's livestream have another opinion.

"Sisters, brothers… look… do you think that the expression of the anchor's friend looks familiar?"

"Yes… that look in his eyes… despite he looked angry, his eyes say it all!"

"I have seen this in countless TV dramas… but they are still incomparable with reality!"

"The anchor's friend looked very concerned that his expression turned aggressive, making him look angry. It is dark, so the anchor can't clearly see thus the anchor missed the concern, which is overflowing, in his junior's gaze!"

"Upstairs, a student of psychology, thanks for explaining to us!"

"You're welcome! I can also add the body language of the junior…his shoulder is tense and his jaws are clenched. His balled fists and his pressed lips… he blames himself."
