At those words, Chu Tingting shivered, trembling as she asked, “What… what horrifying thing are you referring to?”

“It has to do with the vile thing you’ve encountered.” Huang Xiaolong’s expression darkened with each passing moment.

“Since… since… it’s about me, then… then, I should hear it…” Chu Tingting said bravely, “Go ahead, Little Long. I…I can handle it!”

“Alright, I’ll tell you then.” Huang Xiaolong reached over and picked up the wedding dress doll that was sitting on the bedside table. “Teacher, this doll’s craftsmanship is truly meticulous, showing the artisan’s expertise. Indeed, it’s of the highest quality… especially the skin peeking through the wedding dress… It’s incredibly detailed, as soft as jade and quite elastic…”

“Yes… Little Long, the skin of this doll… it’s so realistic, with even some texture to it…” Chu Tingting commented absent-mindedly.

“Teacher, have you ever heard about dolls made from human skin?” Huang Xiaolong asked abruptly. “For instance, in the past, the island nation crafted dolls using human skin, but they are rare, usually kept in private collections. Nowadays, their creation is prohibited. Many islanders truly believe that after their death, their souls would attach themselves to these dolls. Skin dolls, in their language, they are called ‘human form,’ which usually costs around 20,000 RMB but more exquisite ones can cost 50,000 to 60,000. Families who purchase these dolls take very good care of them, often displaying them like deities. It is said that due to their delicate designs and the care they are given, spirits tend to inhabit them. That’s why many horror stories from the island nation begin with these ‘human form,’ or skin dolls…”

“Ah !!” Cheng Tingting let out a sharp scream at Huang Xiaolong’s words, staring in disbelief at the wedding dress doll he was holding. “Little Long…you… you… do you mean…”

“Yes, this wedding dress doll was made from human skin. In terms of appearance and touch, human skin is superior to most animal skins… This practice is not exclusively from the island nation, during our ancient times, instances of human skin uses occurred as well. Historically, some tyrannical rulers would execute criminals or dispose of their personal concubines that they’ve grown tired of, skinning them alive to make lanterns and drums. These objects were cruel tools they used to instill fear in their subjects…”

Huang Xiaolong continued calmly.

The following second

“Little Long… Stop talking! Stop it…” Chu Tingting turned pale and ran directly to the bathroom, throwing up violently.

No wonder she couldn’t handle it anymore. The fact that this wedding dress doll she cherished so much, kept on her bedside table and occasionally even held during sleep, was made of human skin was utterly disturbing.

This was just too appalling!

Human skin! Dead human skin!

It was both revolting and terrifying.

“Uh… well, teacher, you gave permission for me to elaborate,” Huang Xiaolong chuckled defenselessly. However, there was a sharp, murderous intent glinting in his eyes.

‘Damn it! Zhou’s Crafts Workshop? Manufactures dolls? Using human skin? Moreover, the texture of this human skin, it’s definitely skinned off a live child’s body! Only a child’s skin, when processed, could feel so tender… this is utterly sickening! A major crime against humanity! I swear, I’m going to kill the person who makes these dolls! I swear it!’

At this point, Huang Xiaolong felt a deep sense of righteous indignation welling up inside him.

Being the person he was, he wouldn’t think twice before punching a bad guy in the face.

This person making dolls out of human skin was despicable; once Huang Xiaolong found him, his death was guaranteed! There would be nowhere to hide!

After a while, Chu Tingting finally finished throwing up and, pale-faced, returned to her bedroom. “Little Long, throw this doll away for me! It’s too horrifying! I’m scared to death and disgusted.”

“Don’t worry, teacher. Now I understand why you’ve been hearing a little girl’s voice at night.” Huang Xiaolong laughed, “This skin doll was likely made using the skin of a young girl who certainly is now dead. Therefore, the little girl’s restless spirit clings to the doll. At night, it might whisper in your ear, ‘It hurts, it hurts…’ It’s trying to tell you how much it hurt to be skinned.”

Hearing this, Chu Tingting felt not only a chill down her spine but also a wave of sympathy and anger!

“This is too cruel! It’s absolutely horrifying and infuriating! Little Long, we should call the police immediately! It must be the person who made these dolls, the boss at Zhou’s, who’s behind all of this! This…this kind of person, even if they were to be executed by firing squad a dozen times it would be too lenient! They’re worse than beasts! They don’t value human life at all!” Chu Tingting angrily cursed.

“Uh…Teacher, don’t get angry now.” Huang Xiaolong concealed the murderous intent in his eyes, “You’re right. Even if this bastard were executed a dozen times, it would be too lenient. That’s why we can’t call the police.”

“Why can’t we call the police?” Chu Tingting looked at Huang Xiaolong with confusion.

She wondered, without reporting to the authorities, how could such a monstrous person who seemed completely heartless be brought to justice?

“Alright, teacher, you don’t have to worry about all of that for now. The most crucial issue at hand is to solve your problem.” Huang Xiaolong chuckled. “Due to the existence of this doll, a little girl’s ghost now resides in your apartment. However, it doesn’t seem to harbor any malice towards you. Yet, if it continues to live here, your life force will inevitably be drained, resulting in you becoming frail and sickly, gradually losing your vitality and aging.”

“Ah? I’ll age?” Fear of aging is a common concern among girls, especially for a natural beauty like Chu Tingting. “Little Long, what should I do? Should I throw away this doll?”

“Teacher, the fact that you bought the doll makes the little girl’s ghost think that this is its home. Even if you throw the doll away, it’ll still come home.” Huang Xiaolong chuckled. “Actually, it’s simple. I just have to help her move on and then peace will be restored.”

“Then…then hurry up and help her move on. She’s so pitiful, Little Long. Help her reincarnate. Oh… I hope there are no skinning demons in heaven.” Chu Tingting now felt great sympathy for the little girl.

“Huh…Teacher, in our country, there’s no heaven, but hell certainly exists,” Huang Xiaolong laughed. “Alright, I’ll help her move on. However, she’s not at home now, she’s out playing.”

“Out playing?” Chu Tingting opened her eyes wide in shock.
