As Lin Juan prepared to confront three figures in the woods, they suddenly fell to their knees, pleading for Xie Xinxu to save their village. After the group returned to Xiaoshan Village, the village chief explained that their home had recently been developed as a tourist attraction, but prosperity was cut short when a "ghost" appeared behind the ancestral hall.
During a filming project’s opening ceremony three months prior, the apparition had terrified the crew and media, causing a female investor to flee and leave behind an expensive camera. Refusing to leave without her footage, she had been staying at the chief’s house ever since.
Frustrated by the Special Administration Bureau's refusal to help without tedious "procedures," the chief hoped Xie Xinxu’s skills could help retrieve the camera so the village could expose the truth and force the authorities to intervene. Xie Xinxu agreed to help. That night, Xie Xinxu, Wu Nongyu, and Lin Juan made their way into the dark ancestral hall. Their goal was twofold: retrieve the investor’s camera and locate the third fragment, which Xie Xinxu believed was hidden inside.
He warned the others to be quick, noting that Secretary Zhang’s henchmen were a far greater threat than any local ghost. During the search, Lin Juan’s legs grew weak with fear, and a brief panic ensued when something landed on him, though Xie Xinxu quickly identified it as bird droppings. They successfully found the fragment and debunked the mystery, discovering the "ghost" was merely a bird draped in a red cloth.
Despite the eerie atmosphere, Xie Xinxu stayed behind to ensure the camera was recovered safely. Witnessing his bravery and willingness to help the villagers, Wu Nongyu’s perception of him began to change, and she realized he possessed a hidden inner kindness. The village celebrated the resolution of the mystery with a barbecue. Xie Xinxu felt a pang of loneliness and jealousy when Wu Nongyu gave several meat skewers to Lin Juan, causing him to sit apart from the group.
Noticing his mood, Wu Nongyu brought him a unique skewer she had kept aside just for him, which immediately cheered him up. The lighthearted atmosphere continued when a local boy invited them to play with a canister of gas; after Xie Xinxu inhaled it, his voice became hilariously high-pitched, drawing laughter from everyone. As the night ended, Wu Nongyu prepared to administer an injection that would put her into a profound sleep.
She handed her keys to Lin Juan, asking him to wake her the next morning. Once she was asleep, Xie Xinxu quietly entered her room to perform a secret blood exchange—a ritual he had maintained for the past two years to protect her health. Although Lin Juan was unhappy with the arrangement, he stood guard outside, eating candies to calm his nerves. However, the secret was nearly discovered when Wu Nongyu suddenly stirred and woke up. Xie Xinxu managed to duck behind a screen just in time, but a suspicious Wu Nongyu began to reach toward his hiding spot.
