"Aaaaaaahhhh!!!"
The shrill scream echoed through the sewer, spreading farther and farther.
Everyone trembled with fear at the scream, turning their heads toward Su Shan, who was tightly hugging Daisy and hopping with her eyes closed.
"There are rats, aaaaahhhh!!!"
"It's just a rat, don't be scared... It's normal to have rats in such places," Daisy said, rubbing Su Shan's head with a helpless expression.
Daisy lifted the oil lamp, which still had plenty of kerosene, enough to last until their exploration was over.
"When are we going back?"
She asked, worried that returning too late would cause their parents to worry.
"I wish we could go back after seeing a ghost," Reese, who was at the very front of the group, turned around to look at everyone and sighed, "But it seems unlikely now. Let's walk a bit further, and then we'll head back."
He wouldn't come here again next time.
And he wouldn't bring any dead weight.
