“I was furious and hung the child up and beat him. It was from that time on that the Wang family started to die one after another.”
"The first to die was the child's mother. She died peacefully, with a smile on her face. Then, one after another, various maids and servants had accidents. I went to question the child about whether he had done it, but he committed suicide in front of me."
"From then on, every night, the whole mansion could hear the child's laughter and shouts."
