Why is my anime art style so weird?

Her only dream was to marry a rich man and live a life of leisure.

Because of her laziness, she was even too lazy to get a medical checkup. She accidentally became pregnant, but instead of sending the child to an orphanage, she simply abandoned it...

Even though the orphanage was only a few blocks away from her home.

Kelly Moira is such a lazy woman.

"Ha~"

She yawned out of boredom, thinking to herself that she would stand for another ten minutes, then another five minutes, and then go home to sleep when there were still customers.

Hehe~!

Just then, the faint sound of children's laughter drifted through the thick fog.

It's so late, and there are still children on the street?

Kelly didn't even bother to look up.

She was busy making her own plans.

‘我口袋里还剩下3先令7便士，留2先令6便士交房租，剩下1先令1便士，应该还能坚持两周……’

Laughter echoed in the darkness, sounding incredibly eerie.

Kelly stood under a kerosene street lamp.

This street lamp is the only light source in the vicinity, and the light shining down from above forms a small halo.

The halo seemed to be protecting her from being swallowed by darkness and thick fog.

Just then, the lamp wick inside the windproof cover suddenly started to shake, and the child's laughter seemed to be getting closer.

The shadow behind her gradually distorted under the flickering light, as if it had transformed into another living thing.

Kelly finally realized something was wrong.

She looked around in a panic, only to be horrified to discover a group of short, dark figures emerging from the thick fog around her.

These blurry figures, resembling small children, surrounded her in the lamplight through the thick fog.

They neither showed themselves nor spoke, but their laughter echoed through the thick fog, as if they were lying on her back, close to her ear...

A small, grayish-white hand, swollen and rotting from being soaked in water, reached out from behind Kelly.

The small hand gently stroked her cheek, bringing a wet, cool touch.

Kelly instinctively turned her head, her heart nearly stopping in fright.

A baby boy, his head swollen to almost twice its normal size, lay on her shoulder, staring at her with empty eye sockets devoid of pupils.

A faint voice then rang in my ears.

"Mom, why did you abandon me?"

"what!!"

Kelly screamed and scrambled out of the room.

Kelly didn't know how long she had been running, but she finally stopped, panting heavily.

It's really too much for her to escape at such a fast speed.

She was panting heavily, her forehead was covered in sweat, her clothes were disheveled, and she had lost a pair of shoes.

Anyone who didn't know better would think she had been assaulted by a homeless man in the slums.

Kelly slowly raised her head, making the sign of the cross over her chest repeatedly, while cautiously looking down at her shoulder.

The baby ghost from before has disappeared.

Kelly breathed a sigh of relief.

Just then, she caught a glimpse of the poster on the wall out of the corner of her eye, and her expression changed drastically.

It was a poster that had long since yellowed, with the upper right corner curled up, swaying gently in the wind as if it might fly away at any moment.

The poster depicts a clown holding a top hat, facing a crowd, with several pigeons flying out of the hat.

This is a very ordinary-looking circus promotional poster.

However, Kelly was very familiar with this poster.

How could I not be familiar with it?

The poster was posted downstairs in her rented apartment, and she could see it every time she went downstairs.

She ran such a long way, but she ended up back where she started!

The clown on the poster is grinning broadly, as if mocking her.

Kelly suddenly felt a chill run through her body and shivered involuntarily.

The streetlights suddenly flickered.

A short figure suddenly appeared in front of Kelly.

Good evening, big sister~

Kelly was startled and took two steps back.

"You, you, you...!"

Only then did she see clearly that it was a white-haired girl wearing a tattered black cloak and with a huge scar on her left eye.

Seeing that it was a normal, living person, Kelly's tense heartbeat calmed down a little.

She glanced at the other person's attire and thought to herself.

Are they children from the nearby slums?

This area is home to a large number of women engaged in special work; however, the low wages and poor living conditions have led to a large number of abandoned babies scattered throughout London.

"What...is there something you need?"

The white-haired girl's eyes gleamed with a ghostly green light, which involuntarily reminded Kelly of the eyes of a venomous snake.

The girl's cold gaze put immense pressure on her, and she couldn't help but turn her head away to avoid her eyes.

"Could you please do us a favor, big sister?"

The white-haired girl said with a smile.

"What kind of help?"

Kelly asked curiously.

"We want to go back into our big sister's belly."

As the white-haired girl finished speaking, the atmosphere around them became eerie once again.

The streetlights overhead began to flicker.

"Mom, why did you abandon us?"

The white-haired girl's tone suddenly became eerie.

"you!?"

Kelly's hands and feet suddenly turned cold; that voice was...

Chapter 562 Hellish Start

Having just recovered from the dizziness of teleportation, Xu Ming was greeted by a strong, pungent smell of blood.

Xu Ming subconsciously looked in the direction from which the smell of blood was coming.

A woman's disemboweled body lay beneath a kerosene streetlamp.

Her eyes were wide open, staring intently at the kerosene lamp above her, her face filled with terror and despair.

The woman's face was covered in water, and her hair was wet. There was a large gash on her abdomen, the wound was turned inside out, and some of her internal organs had been pulled out.

We don't know what terrible things she went through before she died.

Blood was splattered all over the ground, and some of it even flowed along the cracks in the stone bricks into the roadside ditch.

Xu Ming's lips twitched.

The dog system is getting more and more dog-like. They've started this with such heavy-handed humor.

However, he clearly underestimated the extent of the dog system's perverse humor.

Beep!!

Before Xu Ming could figure out what was going on, a sharp, short whistle suddenly rang out from all around.

Immediately afterwards, several men dressed in old-fashioned black double-breasted uniforms, wearing round helmets, holding round shields in one hand and black batons in the other, suddenly rushed out of the fog.

Their attire resembled that of medieval British police officers from a movie.

Xu Ming was still a little confused.

The British police officers immediately tensed up when they saw Xu Ming and the female corpse not far from him.

One of the patrol officers used a round shield to shield his body while pointing his baton at Xu Ming with a serious expression.

"Don't move! Hands up!"

He was speaking in English.

With the surrounding Victorian-style buildings, Xu Ming was certain that he had most likely been transported to medieval England.

At this moment, another patrolman, while nervously observing Xu Ming's actions, shouted loudly:

"Here! Here! We've caught the suspect!"

The patrolman, wielding a baton, threatened menacingly:

"Don't even think about running. We've already seen what you look like. Our men are everywhere in the surrounding blocks!"

Xu Ming ignored him and instead opened the system panel.

Xu Ming knew very well that, except for some key areas, British police officers were not armed.

If Xu Ming wanted to run, these British police officers couldn't stop him at all.

However, when Xu Ming saw that extremely conspicuous notification, his expression immediately turned very ugly.
