The water vapour outside the house was too heavy. His clothes stuck to his skin and it felt very uncomfortable. Xiao Li liked rainy days to some extent but he liked to sit in his room and listen to the rain outside, rather than make himself wet like he just came out of a sauna.
Xiao Li turned back to the room where the reincarnators were questioning the girl in the flower skirt. They were unable to speak and had to write it down to show the girl. [Who are you? How did you get here?]
[We have also suffered the same thing and might be able to help each other.]
However, this approach lacked stimulation and failed to make the frightened plot character react.
Park Soojin grabbed the girl's hand and used her body to block Luo Junchao's body. She tried to comfort the girl with body movements but it still didn't help. The girl obviously had a mental breakdown and couldn't communicate properly.
Xiao Li picked up the scattered pages on the ground and looked at the girl. It was unknown what she had seen but her entire body had lost the ability to react and there were tears in her eyes.
Xiao Li touched her head.
Shimizu, who came in with him, wrote: [The scream was made by her and she also violated the taboo. Judging by the time Luo Junchao took to lose his voice, she should've also lost her voice. We just don't know when the next ghost attack will come.]
Lance wanted to pull the girl up but the other person was motionless. In desperation, he had to pull a badge out of his sleeves. The exorcist from the West held the badge in his hand and made a circle around the girl.
A faint golden glow spilled from the badge and was incorporated into the circle that Lance had drawn. Once Lance finished everything, he picked up his pen and explained: [I drew an exorcism array around her. If a ghost appears then I can sense-]
Before he finished writing, the girl suddenly stood up. The reincarnators reacted very quickly and took a step back. Xiao Li looked around but didn't see any signs of a ghost. The girl seemed to see something. She took two steps and soon stopped at the window.
The window was the one that Xiao Li previously used to see the old man. The girl looked straight out the window and suddenly lowered her head. She let out a low sob from her throat. The girl had a beautiful pair of nails that seemed to be freshly done. They were inlaid with sparkling rhinestones but at this moment, they became a sharp weapon aiming for her life. She scratched her face and after tearing at her face, she fell to the ground, just like Luo Junchao before her.
All this happened so fast that the reincarnators in the room couldn't react. The exorcism array hadn't worked.
I...Illusion?
Xiao Li crouched down to examine the young girl's body. The doll in his pocket scratched at his hand with her hair, indicating that she hadn't sensed a ghost. Lance looked unsightly as he folded his arms around his chest before subconsciously touching his throat. He stood in front of the plot character but couldn't resist at all. Did this mean that if he broke the taboo, he would die without fighting?
In the oppressive silence, Xiao Li stood up. He looked out the window again. The outside contained wind, rain and the shadow of the tree but there were no ghosts. The fear of the unknown was always more terrible than the known.
Shimizu silently let out a breath, smiled reluctantly and wrote: [There are no clues. We can only try not to break the taboo.]
The reincarnators also understood this truth. Now the rain outside was getting bigger and bigger and they were forced to find a room to sleep first. They would wait until tomorrow to explore during the day.
