Honestly, at first, the teenage boy was crying his eyes out, but Duanmu Huai had no reaction.
Although these people were unlucky, in Duanmu Huai's view, they brought it upon themselves.
Generally, there are two types of protagonists in horror movies.
One type knows nothing, muddle-headedly stumbles in, and then gets haunted by ghosts.
The other has heard the rumors but insists there are no such things as ghosts, and then gets haunted.
If it's the former, Duanmu Huai is willing to save them. But the latter… well, that's about letting go of the hero complex and respecting their fate.
It's like when you go to a wildlife park and the guide tells you not to get out of the car. You insist on getting out, and then a tiger kills you.
Can you blame the tiger?
Or blame the guide?
Obviously, it's your own fault!
