Xu Huo didn't wait for the nursery rhyme to finish and headed to the door, but as he approached the entryway, his vision went black, and when he opened his eyes a second later, he was back sitting on the couch.
He took the doll in his hands, gave it a quick check, and found no control snaps, so he immediately twisted off its head.
The inside of the doll had no mechanical joint, as if its head and body were meant to be separate, the neck and jaw were exceptionally smooth, and after being thrown aside, they rolled away from each other.
The things in the illusion didn't necessarily need to be destroyed by Xu Huo, so after tossing it aside, he thought about going upstairs to check.
However, when he got to the stairway, he found he couldn't go up, as if the map wasn't unlocked yet. He stepped onto the staircase multiple times, but a few steps in, the stairs would flip downwards, and in the end, he would return to the living room.
"Ding dong! Ding dong!" The doorbell rang again.
