Gaojun uncharacteristically appears lonely. Though Shouxue is concerned, she is unable to ask why. Several days later, Gaojun visits Ye Ming Palace to show her a haunted mask. The ghost haunting the mask apparently responds to a type of foreign lute. The problem is solved when Gaojun is able to provide such a lute. Gaojun tries to leave, but he is stopped by Shouxue.
I shouldn't have taken it 
from him back then.
كان عليّ ألّا آخذه منه آنذاك
Ich hätte sie ihm damals
nicht fortnehmen dürfen.
No debí habérselo quitado aquel día.
No debí habérselo quitado aquel día.
Ce jour-là,
je n’aurais jamais dû le lui arracher.
उस समय मुझे उससे 
उसकी वीणा नहीं छीननी चाहिए थी।
Quella volta non avrei dovuto portargli via il suo.
Eu não deveria ter
tomado dele naquele dia.
Надо было оставить инструмент
у него в руках.
