"What kind of investigative job again is this, I didn't expect them to be so strange, wasn't this house was just sold two months ago, now there's another case report." said a woman inside her car driving while on the phone

"Just go, and find out what's really going on there, I'll be right there." said the guy in the phone

"Alright David, I think you should come soon." said the woman then hang up the phone

She had arrived, In the afternoon in a house, which looks a bit old, but there is a swimming pool next to it.

"Police, I'm Regina Liu, from the investigation department regarding your reports." said the woman, Regina Liu showing her license

"Great you have arrived, my mom just moved here two weeks ago after we restored this house but something strange keeps happening." said a guy to Regina

"Strange, according to your mother's report she always sees a girl in the swimming pool, isn't that right?" ask Regina to the guy

"Yes, we just want to make sure if there is someone who has smuggled in and is secretly living here." said the guy to Regina worried

"Alright, leave it to me, I will report after investigating it." said Regina to the guy looking around the place

Suddenly at that time a black car arrived in front of the house, it turned out to be David Ma got out of the car.

"How about now, has it started?" ask David to Regina

"Not yet, we're only at the beginning, I think we have to try to demolish this house to make sure there are no intruders?" said Regina to David

It turns out that Regina is David's co-worker, they have known each other for a long time. They are both from the investigation department and both are also seniors.

"But we just renovated this house months ago, it was expensive, please don't damage it too much if possible." said the guy shocked a little

"Yes, we understand, we will try our best." replied David to the guy

"Okay, let's get started?" said Regina to David walking inside the house

"Here's the key." said the guy handing the key to her then step back

After that, Regina and David went in first to start the investigation and found a swimming pool that was calm and serene, unlike usual.

"This place has a really negative aura, but I can't say it's really strong because I feel there's a strong aura." whispers Regina to David

It turns out that Regina has the ability to feel the presence of spirits, she has an inner eye, she comes from a family that has quite a lot of knowledge about magic, in her family there must be someone who has an inner eye in every generation because they are already connected to spiritual knowledge.

"Are you sure?" ask David to Regina confused

"Yes, I'm sure this isn't the first time, we've solved many cases related to spirits too." replied Regina to David with confidence

"If you don't believe me, just go and find out from my family." said Regina to David walked inside

Suddenly a white car parked in front of the neighbor's fence, someone was seen getting out of the car carrying his bag, Regina and David were distracted, and peeked to see who the person was.

"Damn he lives here?" muttered Regina shocked and back off

"You know him, who is he?" ask David curious staring at Regina who is shocked in disbelief

"It's not anyone, really." replied Regina to David smiled awkwardly

"Don't say he's your ex-boyfriends." said David to Regina pointing at her and smiled

Regina didn't reply, she just nodded shyly because it turned out the man was Jake Yang, her ex-boyfriend when they were in college.

"Seriously, this is going to be great." said David teasing Regina who is shyly hiding her face from David

"Why is the gate open, and are there two cars parked there, Is Miss Lu come back here again?" muttered Jake confused walked towards that house

"Excuse me, Miss Lu?" ask Jake suddenly walked in

Jake couldn't see their faces, because they were facing forward, and David laughed again, while Regina told him to be quiet.

"That's enough, we'd better just investigate quickly." said Regina to David holding her embarrassment

"Alright then I won't bother you anymore, come on, let's go back to work detective Liu." said David laughing at her

Hearing that voice, Regina and David were immediately shocked and immediately looked back and who would have thought that Regina and Jake would face each other again after 9 years.

"Regina..., Regina Liu, why are you here?" ask Jake shocked staring at Regina

"Work." replied Regina with a cold stare to him

"What kind of work, real estate?" muttered Jake in a lowered voice mocking Regina

"Then I'll go first, I won't bother you anymore." said David walked in first

Regina then took out her police license and showed it to Jake.

"I thought all this time you were dead, who would have thought you were still alive?" said Jake to Regina

"Dead, do you still have a healthy brain, has it all been completely absorbed by your psychiatrist degree?" replied Regina to Jake mad a little

"Who would have thought that, after 9 years without seeing each other, I thought you were dead." said Jake to Regina

"Then go away, what a nightmares." said Regina to Jake walked inside leaving him in the front gate

"We haven't met for 9 years, but her behavior is still the same, college Regina." muttered Jake then leaving

"Oh yeah, by the way, do you know the previous owner?" ask Regina to Jake suddenly turning back

"Yes, I know her, she was my previous patient, why, did something happened to her?" replied Jake to Regina curios

"Who is she, do you still have her contact numbers, can I have it?" ask Regina to Jake

"No, she and I haven't seen each other for about 2 months now, her medical matters are finished, and patient information must be protected." replied Jake to Regina

"Don't tell me you didn't know this house was sold?" ask Regina to Jake

"Sold?" replied Jake shocked
