Chapter 27: [Hypnotic Melody]

"What will it take for you to let me go?"

The woman in white asked.

Seeing this, Chen Hao felt a bit awkward.

Because he had shielded his hearing, he could only see the woman's mouth moving.

However, he had a way to remedy this.

If he turned off the [Auditory Shielding] ability, he might fall for her [Hypnotic Melody].

Fortunately, Chen Hao had his phone.

The phone had a function to convert sound into text.

Chen Hao opened his phone and began to record the woman's voice.

The two began to communicate.

"You are clearly already dead, why don't you leave?"

"Leave?"

The woman in white gave a bitter smile.

"Do you think I don't want to leave?"

She had died here years ago and turned into a weird entity.

She had been trapped here directly for many years.

Chen Hao didn't waste words with her.

He said directly: "What do I need to do to let you leave?"

Hearing this, the woman in white felt a surge of joy.

"Really? Are you really willing to help me leave?"

"Hmm."

Chen Hao nodded.

"I cannot leave because I have an unfulfilled wish."

"I hope to see my mother one more time."

"Your mother?"

"Hmm."

The woman in white nodded.

"Do you want to hear a story?"

"Sure."

The woman in white began to tell her story.

She was born into a family with good financial conditions.

Her mother had signed her up for piano training classes.

She was a gifted child, the pride of her parents and teachers.

Until that day, when an intern music teacher arrived.

It broke the peace of her life.

In daily life, she was attracted by the talent and appearance of the intern music teacher.

So she approached him under the guise of learning piano.

She thought she could have a good outcome with the intern music teacher.

She didn't expect this to be a doomed relationship.

Because the intern music teacher was already married, to his college classmate.

The woman in white found it hard to accept.

Right in this classroom, she committed suicide by taking poison.

She died on that piano.

After hearing the story, Chen Hao didn't know what to say.

"Wait here, I'll go call your mother."

Chen Hao walked out of the classroom and picked up Tian Wenjing.

"I didn't expect this little girl to be so heavy, even though she doesn't look fat."

Chen Hao found he almost couldn't pick up Tian Wenjing.

He carried Tian Wenjing downstairs.

"Hello, could you please help me look after her?"

Chen Hao handed Tian Wenjing to a female teacher.

"Oh, okay!"

The female teacher grabbed Tian Wenjing.

But she didn't hold her steady, fortunately another female teacher stepped up to help.

"How is it? Did you get it done?"

Mei Renxin looked at Chen Hao with anticipation.

"Almost there."

"Do you know the background of that woman in white?"

"Can you call her mother here?"

"Her mother?"

Hearing this, Mei Renxin showed an embarrassed expression.

When the woman in white died, her mother had come to the school and caused a huge scene.

Now asking her to come.

Mei Renxin didn't have the guts.

"You have her phone number, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

"I'll give it to you right away."

Mei Renxin opened the school app, searched quickly, and gave the number to Chen Hao.

After Chen Hao got the number.

He didn't dial it, but walked upstairs.

He came before the woman in white and said to her: "I'm calling your mother now."

"If you have anything to say, tell her yourself."

"Okay."

Chen Hao dialed the number.

The other side answered.

"Hello, who is this?"

Hearing this familiar voice, the woman in white burst into tears.

"Mom."

The other side was stunned for a long time upon hearing this familiar voice.

After a long while, an urgent voice came through.

"Is that Pingping?"

"Mom, it's me!"

"Pingping, it really is Pingping."

"Pingping, how have you been all these years?"

"Mom misses you so much!"

"Mom, I miss you too."

The two began to chat.

They chatted for a long time.

The woman in white hung up the phone.

"Not going to keep chatting?"

"Or I can have your mother come over so she can see you."

"No need."

"I don't want to disturb her anymore."

The woman in white gave a smile.

Through the chat, she had learned one piece of news.

That was that after she died, her mother had given birth to a younger sister for her.

Now there was a younger sister to accompany her mother.

"Alright, it's time for me to leave."

Perhaps because her wish was fulfilled.

The figure of the woman in white began to fade.

She, including the piano bathed in moonlight, began to slowly dissipate.

A single strand of hair floated up, drifted into the distance, and finally disappeared.

"Little handsome guy, thank you."

Before the woman in white dissipated, she expressed her gratitude to Chen Hao.

"Ding dong!"

"Congratulations to the host, corpse collection successful!"

"Obtained A-level ability - [Hypnotic Melody]!"

"Hmm?"

Chen Hao felt it was incredible.

"System, when did I collect a corpse?"

"That strand of hair was her last bit of existence in this world."

"Now that her wish is fulfilled, the hair has turned directly into dust."

"So it counts as the host successfully collecting the corpse."

Hearing this, Chen Hao nodded.

He began to check the [Hypnotic Melody] ability.

[Hypnotic Melody], A-level ability: Playing a melody can make the enemy fall into hypnosis; the duration of the hypnosis depends on the strength of both sides.

"This is a control-type ability, and it's a hard control!"

Seeing this, Chen Hao was a bit excited.

"The only regret is that I must play a melody."

Regarding music, Chen Hao was completely tone-deaf.

"Looks like after this, I'll have to find a way to learn an instrument."

Among all instruments, there was only one that was easy to carry and that Chen Hao felt was cool.

That was the flute!

After resolving the matter here, Chen Hao walked downstairs.

Seeing Chen Hao come down again.

Zhang Jianmin and the others, who were originally drowsy, forced themselves to perk up and gather around.

"How is it? Is the matter settled?"

"Hmm."

Seeing Chen Hao nod.

Zhang Jianmin was extremely excited.

"That's great, that's really great!"

"Thank you, thank you so much."

"It's nothing, just a small favor."

Bidding farewell to Zhang Jianmin.

Chen Hao took Tian Wenjing and headed toward his home.

On the way.

Chen Hao's phone rang.
