Chapter 356 The Secret in the Woods
Early the next morning, Xia Shou had just gotten up when there was a knock on the door.

"Alice, open the door."

"Lord Xia Shou? Why do you want to open the door?" Alice asked puzzledly.

When Xia Shou heard it, he knew that the person knocking on the door was Su Weiyu. He didn't explain any more and walked to the door and opened it himself.

"Good morning!"

Su Weiyu greeted with a smile, walked into the dormitory carrying her breakfast bag, and began to observe the dormitory curiously.

Her father also had a temporary bedroom at the company, but without her mother's daily care, it was always messy, with books, charging cables, and various electronic devices scattered everywhere, and there were always cigarette butts in the ashtray.

In comparison, Xia Shou’s dormitory was incredibly clean, probably thanks to Alice.

"I'm about to go out. Let's go together. Brother Bai has already made an appointment with the analysis department yesterday to arrange for us to watch a movie today. Xiaoyue should be there soon."

"I haven't seen A Yue for a long time." Su Weiyu looked expectant.

Xia Shou's phone rang softly, and Su Yue sent a text message: [Brother Xia Shou, we have arrived at the screening room and brought you breakfast. ]

"They've arrived, let's go over there too," said Xia Shou.

When they arrived at the screening room, as soon as Su Weiyu saw Su Yue, she ran up excitedly, touched Su Yue's head, and greeted Su Yue on her own initiative.

She hugged Su Yue's neck from behind and put her chin on Su Yue's shoulder, like a pair of sisters who had an extremely good relationship since childhood.

Su Yue was in her sister's arms, smiling and greeting Xia Shou: "Brother Xia Shou, good morning."

"I was just buying breakfast and there's too much." Xia Shou raised the bag in his hand awkwardly.

"It's okay, we can eat it as a snack while watching the movie later. By the way, Brother Bai, should we watch the movie at double speed? This way it will be more efficient." Su Yue turned around and asked Bai He for his opinion.

"The analysis department suggested that we watch the movie normally. They also issued the corresponding test papers overnight. After watching a movie, we need to do the questions once, which can improve our understanding of the movie."

Baihe adjusted the projector and the movies began playing. The first one was "The Silence of the Lambs".

They each chose a seat and sat down, just like in a movie theater. Baihe also prepared plenty of popcorn and soda drinks.

After watching the first movie, I felt very relaxed. Compared with my usual work and report writing routine, it was extremely easy. But when it came to doing the questions, Xia Shou felt a little overwhelmed.

It's okay to ask him to watch a movie, but asking him to analyze a movie from an academic aesthetic perspective is a bit too much to ask.

After repeating this several times and watching two movies in the morning, Xia Shou felt his head was dizzy. The only thing in his mind was the analysis of Hannibal's cannibalistic psychology and the impact of Hannibal's image design on the audience.

Su Yue originally wanted to take advantage of this rare opportunity to watch the horror movie to get closer to Xia Shou, but after finishing the first set of test papers, she felt that her thinking speed had slowed down significantly, and the second horror movie didn't even scare her.

At night, Xia Shou took a break and went outside to get some fresh air.

There was a new moon in the sky, and there was not a single cloud in the night sky. Xia Shou thought of the ritual described in the Death Note, so he asked for leave and temporarily freed himself from the task of watching the movie.

Today was the night of the new moon, and he was going to carry out the ceremony with his Death Note.

He took a taxi to the suburbs alone with his rote memoirs, walked for a while, and found a deserted dense forest that met his requirements.

He arranged the ceremony according to the requirements of the Death Note, and then asked Alice to recite the spell left in the Death Note.

Xia Shou didn't recognize those spells, but Alice did. Alice said she didn't know what language it was, but she knew it and knew its meaning. If translated into Mandarin, it was like begging Cang Yue to tell some forbidden secrets.

As Alice began to chant the spell, the shadows of the trees around her suddenly dimmed, the night became darker, the new moon became brighter, and the rustling of leaves in the air, the sounds of night birds and wind disappeared.

The magic circle pattern under Xia Shou's feet emitted a milky white glow. The crescent moon in the sky, which had been magnified several times at some point, began to crack at its edges, and white blood flowed out, dripping down like gum.

Then a thought suddenly rushed into Xia Shou's mind.

It wasn't a sound, but a sudden promise that he could move on to the next step.

Tell secrets.

Xia Shou opened the Death Recording Notes and said, "I have already performed the ceremony."

There was no greeting in the dictated notes. It was like an academic book, and lines of objective descriptions without emotion began to emerge directly.

Xia Shou knew that this was a way of saving written words by taking notes.

I can only write two pages of notes at a time. If I add questions and answers, it will waste too much space, so I decided to write down everything I need to say in the notes.

[The Secret Transmitter: A god who reveals secrets and knows all the secrets that have ever existed in the world.

The Secret Keepers and Cangyue have been enemies forever. Now is the era of keeping secrets led by Cangyue, so the name of this god has become a taboo.

The Crescent Moon forbids those who know the secret from spreading his name in any way. Unless they obtain the Crescent Moon's permission, the leaker himself and the existence of the listener will be erased.

Nowadays, there are very few followers of the secret transmitters. They have lost the qualifications to transmit the secrets and are waiting for the arrival of the era of leaks, just like the era when the secret transmitters once had the upper hand.

But now, there are still people who can rely on the power of the secret transmitter. 】

The notes paused here, drew a dividing line, and the text continued to emerge.

[You can’t know about your secrets. Once you know them, someone can find you and the secret may be leaked. (I don’t know what the secret is either.)
Even when you knew nothing, two people had already found you.

I can do nothing to those two people. The situation is beyond my control. You stay in this magic circle and summon the black jade door of Merlin's House. Go in again and return before the new moon sets. 】

Xia Shou stared at the words in shock. Except for the very beginning when he came to this world, the Death Notes had never been so frugal with words. It only conveyed the most necessary practices.

Xia Shou had countless questions he wanted to know at this time.

What is the secret that even the Death Note doesn't know?
What is the relationship between those two people who came to him and the notes?
What is the connection between the secret of the secret transmitter and these things?
He really wanted to ask, but he knew he probably wouldn't get an answer.

Xia Shou did not hesitate. The shadow under his feet expanded in the milky white magic circle, and the black jade-like stone door appeared in front of Xia Shou again.

"Alice, open the door for me."

"Yes, Master Xia Shou."

Alice stretched out her hand, and the stone door opened like a shadow in the moonlight.

Xia Shou took a deep breath and jumped in.
