Love letters are not allowed in the exorcism notebook!-Chapter 108: Netherworld Trial, Bi’an Flower Blooming

In an instant, blood-red Manjusaka blossomed in the darkness.

Centering around the shop owner and his family, countless blood-red strands burst forth, piercing through the bodies of those white-clad individuals who were eagerly and impatiently waiting to try their luck.

Their white garb was soaked in blood, and their screams of terror and pain melded into a ghastly symphony that cut through the night.

Their gaze gradually rose.

A streak of red appeared on their necks, pulling their heads away from their bodies, gradually ascending and hovering in mid-air.

In such a state, they did not immediately die; they were conscious, their eyes wide open, watching their headless corpses slowly collapse to the ground.

Blood-colored flowers bloom, heads ascend to the heavens!

Even with Li Mumu’s years of rich gaming experience, she found it hard to accept such a bizarre R18G scene.

She instinctively looked at the Demon-Breaking Crossbow in her hand, aware that she hadn’t pulled the trigger.

Then she raised her head, meeting Wendy’s horrified gaze.

"It wasn’t me..."

Li Mumu was about to explain when she suddenly realized that Wendy’s focal point was not on her face.

She was looking at the Concentric Knot tied around her wrist.

Following Wendy’s gaze, Li Mumu looked down to see a strand of red string, so fine it was almost invisible to the naked eye, hanging from the Concentric Knot, trailing down to the ground and extending towards the direction where the blood-colored Manjusaka bloomed...

She had originally kept this peace charm in her pocket, a fact she remembered clearly.

Because Mu Yuming had explicitly warned her not to let Li Ya see it.

[Ten minutes ago, you used this hand to take out a Vitality Potion and hand it to Wendy.]

[At least at that moment, the Concentric Knot was not on your wrist.]

[It looked as though it was alive.]

Li Mumu’s hand trembled, almost throwing the Concentric Knot away.

What does it mean by alive? Is this thing made from iron wire worm?

"Listen to me, I can explain..."

"Please, begin your excuses."

"What do you mean, excuses? This is a peace charm I prayed for at the Empress Temple! Can you believe it cost me a whole five US dollars?"

"At least it was worth the price."

Wendy stared at the Concentric Knot on Li Mumu’s wrist, her eyes shining.

"My mom has warned me many times not to get close to temples in the Chinese District."

"Especially the deities associated with the Overseas Netherworld, they’re terrifying."

"This is the divine seal of the Netherworld Angel Anhelica, a genuine article for just five US dollars? Such explosive effects?"

Li Mumu was at a loss for words.

What the hell is this Netherworld Angel Anhelica?

At that moment, under her watch, the extending red string visibly retracted at a speed perceptible to the naked eye, wrapping itself around her wrist.

[It seems to have grown thicker.]

So you’ve been feasting, have you?

[Although the purpose of this peace charm is still unclear, you realize that flesh, death, or something else can provide it with nourishment to continue growing and developing.]

"Forget it, let’s not worry about these things for now, let’s hurry up and get the notebook."

Li Mumu didn’t think these people were killed by her, even though she had entertained the thought moments before.

I only glanced at him, and his head flew off, how does that relate to me?

It wasn’t her own hand, so there wouldn’t be any trace, no matter how many people died, they couldn’t tie it back to her or Wendy.

As a concerned citizen, walking past a murder scene in the dead of the night was perfectly normal.

After all, these guys deserved to die!

The head hanging in mid-air was still struggling, writhing.

The shop owner had already been scared out of his wits, hugging his wife and children as they sat among the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, shivering and unable to utter a single word.

Li Mumu and Wendy put on their masks and quickly stepped into the scene, rummaging through a pile of headless corpses to find Priest’s body.

He looked no different from anyone else in physical constitution and hadn’t lasted a second longer than the rest, even his notebook had fallen into the bloody water.

Li Mumu put on leather gloves and carefully picked up the notebook from the ground.

The notebook did seem somewhat supernatural, despite being soaked in blood, it was completely free of any dirt or bloodstains, as clean as if it were brand new.

Li Mumu casually flipped it open, and there appeared to be vague writing on it, but under her gaze, it quickly dispersed like smoke.

[Miracle—Bi’an Flower Blooming]

[The Netherworld Angel Anhelica, walking among the Mortal World, grants the Judgement Technique to the faithful. It directly severs the life thread of the unforgivable and leads the sinners’ Lost Souls into Netherworld Hell...]

Even though the lack of light at night made it difficult for Li Mumu to see the words that quickly disappeared from the notebook,

the second personality in her head had completely retained the text she saw at first glance.

When she flipped through the other pages, they were all blank, nothing was left.

Could it be that this thing was also a plot-limited equipment that she couldn’t use?

While Li Mumu was still pondering, Wendy had finished checking the bodies, confirming there was nothing else valuable, and pulled Li Mumu to leave.

"Let’s get out of here fast, people will be here soon!"

The screams from earlier had already woken up the neighbors, lights were turning on, and if they didn’t leave now, there would only be more witnesses.

Taking advantage of the darkness, the two of them ran all the way home at full speed.

After bolting the door when they got home, they both plopped down to the floor.

Once they had caught their breath, Wendy used all four limbs to crawl over to the phone, picked up the phone book beside it, and dialed a number.

"Steel Tooth Scrap Recycling and Processing Company? This is the Freud family, I have a job for you... No, not at my house, on Blueberry Street."

"How many? I don’t remember exactly, but it’s at least twenty, you’ll see when you get there... No, no need for additional services, I’m not applying for a card."

"300? Are you trying to rob me? No way, I’ll just call another company, no, I said, I’m not applying for a card!"

"Alright, that’s it."

After hanging up the phone, Wendy turned back to Li Mumu and made a face, "Done. Since I said this is my gift to you, you don’t have to pay. I’m going to take a shower and change my clothes, you go make some late-night snacks."

"What can you even cook for a late-night snack in your house?"

"At least there’s still sugar."

"Boil sugar water?"

"Yes!"

Li Mumu watched as Wendy unsteadily got up and headed toward the bathroom, starting to strip off clothes and socks along the way... Based on Li Mumu’s understanding of her, by the time she got to the bathtub, she wouldn’t be able to keep her eyes open.

And then she’d fall asleep in the tub.

As Wendy normally put it—having a bath in a dream counts as taking one.

In the middle of the night, there was no hot water. It was always Li Mumu who would boil water in the kitchen, adjust the temperature and fill the bathtub, then wake her from her dreams with a scrub brush, scrubbing until she howled.

While Wendy was away, Li Mumu pulled out the notebook again for another look, but still, there was no reaction. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Just then, the phone next to her suddenly rang.
