"To me." That was the answer.
Most ghost stories possess the ability to devour and grow; the more deaths occur in a ghost story, the stronger the individual ghost within it becomes.
If it devours materials that already possess considerable strength, then the ghost story will undoubtedly experience significant growth.
"What is the mastermind's purpose?"
Miss Fox shook her head. "No, I feel this is a case of using someone else to do the dirty work."
However, instead of using the world's consciousness to kill her, they used her to counter the world's consciousness.
If nothing unexpected happens, if Miss Fox chooses to run away, there's a good chance someone will run into her again and bring her back here.
The guy behind it all must be willing to risk his life to keep her here.
"The purpose... is probably to make me completely break with the consciousness of this world."
"Huh?" Noelle was taken aback. "But it shouldn't be something that would be difficult for you!"
"Hey, you know what, I'm actually finding this a bit tricky!"
The key point is not any one of the three parties, but that the fact that the three parties happen to achieve a 1+1+1>3 effect makes Miss Fox feel troubled.
The blockade of world consciousness, the targeted equipment of the Time and Space Administration, and the opportunistic attempts of the mastermind behind the scenes—each of these is a thin membrane that can be easily punctured and disposed of by Miss Fox.
However, the combination of the blockade of world consciousness and the targeted equipment of the Time and Space Administration has caused the outer layer of space of this world to be in a chaotic and fragmented state, becoming extremely unstable.
This means that Miss Fox needs to exert a lot of effort to keep the door open so that Noelle can pass through.
"...So all that roundabout way was just to tell me that I was the one who held us back, right!"
"Bingo~"
With her hands shaped like guns and pointing at Noelle, Miss Fox winked and acted cute.
Even without Noelle, she could still easily run away even if 1+1+1>3, but unfortunately, she has a companion, so she can't run as well.
So I plan to do something to get the world's consciousness to give me permission.
"The world consciousness will let you pass?" Noelle's expression was strange. "Didn't they say they're targeting you?"
“They are too young.” Miss Fox smiled slightly. “They don’t even understand what the concept of a transcendent being is.”
Although they didn't understand what was going on with the world consciousness, it had somehow set its sights on her.
Moreover, it felt very immature, and the way it was addressed carried a strange confidence, as if it thought that this level was enough.
Miss Fox thinks that they completely don't understand the meaning of "transcendence".
"I'm going to let them break down a bit."
This world consciousness is nurturing ghost stories.
This particular ghost story is one of the cases that TA has nurtured exceptionally well—meaning that a lot of emotion and energy has been poured into it.
"They probably thought that this ghost story could solve my problem."
"Because the mystery of this ghost story is indeed stronger, and it also has some special mechanisms."
Upon entering the police station, Miss Fox conjured a ledger out of thin air.
He fell onto the deserted front desk of the police station.
"I'll complete the enhancement process for this ghost story right now!"

Chapter 1370
The spiritual sense is quite convenient in gathering information.
While dawdling around the mansion, Miss Fox wasn't just dawdling; she was also gathering information.
Now we're heading straight to the police station, meaning we've already gathered the intelligence and confirmed what's needed to clear the checkpoint.
"Although I'm not here to clear the level through the normal channels."
Miss Fox explained to Noelle, tossing the ledger in her hand to the "policeman."
The specifics of this strange incident are still unclear.
However, with the timeline reversed, the player's situation of living in the future was confirmed in an old newspaper in his library in a hidden room in the basement of the mansion.
The owner of the mansion had supported a fortune teller, who was actually a corpse in a secret underground chamber.
The old newspapers contained missing person notices about the fortune teller's disappearance.
It can be basically confirmed that the fortune teller was killed out of anger after receiving a bad divination result.
By combining the diary entries written in the morning, players will be forced to act according to the rules of the entries, meaning that the family living in the mansion will inevitably head towards the bad outcome predicted by the fortune teller.
The ending of the ghost story will, unsurprisingly, have two layers.
If they don't return to the normal timeline, that's the divination timeline, leading to a predetermined ending, where they are swallowed up by the diviner's future.
If you manage to return to the normal timeline and complete the game by following some clues, you will break the prophecy and face the mansion's owner, who has escaped his predetermined fate—that is, the mansion's butler.
"Is the butler the master mentioned in the first rule?"
Noelle asked.
"Yes, the butler is the master."
Shrugging, Miss Fox spread her hands.
"The butler's room is directly above the secret room, and he's a man."
One of the rules states that there are no male servants.
It's practically a blatant indication that there's something wrong with the housekeeper.
"Assuming the butler isn't a servant, how could a butler command maids and use the manor's money? What kind of person do you think it could be?"
"Then why did you give the ledger to the police?"
Noelle gradually came to understand everything, but she still didn't quite understand the ledger thing.
Since the butler is the owner of the mansion and has killed a fortune teller, wouldn't it be better to just present the evidence of the murder?
What can an account book do?
"It can enhance it!"
Miss Fox pointed behind her, where the manor owner, with a stern face, was standing.
The moment the ledger appeared, the owner of the mansion arrived.
He stood at the entrance of the police station with a dark expression.
"The police are the master's old buddies, but don't ask them for help if you need anything, because the master has done something shameful that can't be brought to light, right?"
Each player has only one chance to ask the police for help.
Once enough evidence is gathered, the mansion owner can be eliminated in one fell swoop, thus achieving the correct level completion.
If the wrong thing is provided, it will only make the homeowner suffer a lot and then ignite their anger.
Just like it is now.
"A large amount of energy is converging."
Noel opened the second energy detector's field of vision and saw that the energy of the entire town was being mixed into the energy of the nine people in the house.
}
And that's not all; there's also an unknown energy constantly amplifying this strange tale. If it were to finally take shape, the power it contains would probably be enough to make the continental shelf tremble with a stomp of its foot.
"Not very good, you can tell at a glance that he's a beginner."
Miss Fox shook her head, giving a pessimistic assessment.
"It seems the world consciousness isn't very good at this; it doesn't seem to know how to strengthen units. How about you go, Noelle?"
Noelle took a few steps back and crossed her arms.
However, I still switched to battle mode to avoid being grabbed and thrown by Miss Fox.
But this time, Miss Fox was just talking casually and didn't mean to make Noelle fight. After the manor owner reached his complete form, she crushed him to death.
The process was extremely swift and efficient, without the slightest hesitation.
"The Time and Space Administration has detected us."
So this can be seen as a warning to the Time and Space Administration, telling them that if they still want to have the fighting power to deal with the Transcendent Alliance, they should stay away from her.
Let's eavesdrop on the communications between those dimensional ships first...
"Target spotted! Target spotted!"
"A unit capable of easily annihilating a continent-level energy level! Confirmed! It's the cover target for those damned transmigrators!"
"Quickly! Make an announcement over the loudspeaker!"
"Notify the main force!"
Miss Fox: ?
At the same time, the spiritual sense also saw that those dimensional ships had turned the power of the equipment affecting the "gate" to the maximum.
Seven-Colored Leopard Jumping Jade: Pfft, silly girl, you've made a fool of yourself! /Eating melon seeds
High school student: What happened?
Fallen Saint Black Cat: Some shameful elf is in trouble, I won't say who it is.
Seventeen-year-old girl: Ah la la~
Qiong: What? The stupid fox is going to be in trouble? Let's pop the champagne!
Eve with red eyes: Pop the champagne! Pop the champagne!
Celine Kaslana: In the end, Mom couldn't escape being dragged into the battlefield after all.
Zhao Yingkong: ...This shouldn't be something to be thankful for, right?
Newbie just there to make up the numbers: It's okay, I just remembered I have another passive skill (thumbs up)
