Irene was too strong, so strong that Li Mo had no desire to fight her at all.

With just a few gestures, he suppressed all the restless human-skin ghosts, no, he silenced them all.

Judging by the depth of the ghost's current slumber, it's unlikely to wake up for the next few days.

"Well, now that we've cleared out the third parties, it's a long, lonely night. Detective, aren't you going to do something?"

Irene is still elegant, even if the flames cover her entire face, it cannot conceal her mysterious and special temperament.

Li Mo sat up straight. Just because he had no desire to fight didn't mean he would feel fear.

He did not deny the identity of Mr. Detective, because the other party clearly helped him because of this identity. If he got rid of this identity, he might become silent like the human-skinned ghost outside in the next second.

No, the human-skin ghost will remain silent and he will be killed.

Besides, Irene said at the beginning that if she wanted to kill herself, she wouldn't need to consider whether she had restarted or not, because she couldn't.

Li Mo decided to ask two general questions. Facing the unknown, he had to roughly trace the origin and rules of the other party.

If you can communicate, use the words little by little, starting from the largest scope and gradually narrowing it down.

Li Mo: "Who are you and why are you here?"

Irene: "I want to see you, can't I?"

Li Mo: “?”

Irene: “<(* ̄▽ ̄*)/?~”

This answer is meaningless because anyone can use such hypocrisy to conceal their true intentions.

Li Mo was not sure whether this sentence was true or not, because he could not see the micro-expressions on Irene's face.

Li Mo: "Then let me ask this another way. Why did you save me?"

Irene: "Because you won't be able to see it after you die."

Li Mo: “…”

Irene: “o(* ̄︶ ̄*)o”

My ardent admirer?

Li Mo asked himself, he had no thoughts about ghosts, and he had never done anything out of the ordinary...

……

Guiqi doesn't count.

……

Weird buds don’t count either.

Now, Li Mo asked himself, he didn't do anything out of line to the ghost.

I need to think carefully about what to ask and can't let her get away with it so casually.

While Li Mo was still struggling with how to start, Irene opened her lips slightly, and the dark fire on her face seemed to disappear, revealing her delicate and flawless skin.

Irene: "The source of the strangeness in Taixu Mountain lies in the forest of human skins. You only need to persevere until the Mid-Autumn Festival in July and find the real Him among the countless human skins. With your abilities, you can naturally completely resolve this supernatural incident, including the source of the strangeness."

Li Mo: "How do you know?"

Erin: “Yeah, how would I know?”

"How long? I can't quite remember. When I was little, I told sailors about to sail away not to go, because I saw their futures: they would be torn to pieces by storms and buried at sea."

Li Mo: "What happened?"

Irene: "I don't know. I just know they never came back."

"Many people said I was unlucky and shouldn't have cursed them before sailing. They said I was a witch and the murderer who killed them."

Li Mo: "And then? You stop interfering in other people's lives? Even if you have the ability to predict the future."

Irene: “Not really.”

"After that, I told many people about their deaths one after another, but no one wanted to believe me. In the end, they all died, just as I saw them."

"I once predicted the death of a family who seemed to be quite famous. The same day, I was caught and crucified as a witch and executed in public."

"But I'm not worried at all because I don't see my own death."

"I was rescued by someone, who helped me clear my name and told me not to tell anyone else about their future."

Li Mo: "Did you do it?"

Erin: “Half done.”

Li Mo: "Why don't you listen to him? You'll probably be arrested and executed again for predicting someone else's future. No one can protect another person forever."

Irene: "I couldn't help but tell him because I saw it and he was going to die because of me."

Li Mo: "…My condolences."

Irene: "Pfft... Although this sentence sounds a bit strange coming from your mouth, it seems quite interesting."

"Okay, let's get back to the topic. Let me introduce myself again. My name is Irene Adler."

"As you can see, I will guide you into an unknown future, and you will survive."

Li Mo: "Didn't you stop predicting things?"

Irene: "If it's someone related to me, I still feel good sometimes."

"It's past the best time now, but it's not a big problem."

"Do what the notebook says, and you'll be fine."

Li Mo: "I find you suspicious. If finding Him in the Human Pilin on July 15th can end this farce, why don't you just tell me?"

Irene: "From a factual perspective, I should indeed tell Him my true identity."

"You would have asked about the notebook in your hand, but compared to what I say, it's more cunning, isn't it? Even if it points out who "He" is, are you really sure that the "He" in the notebook is the same person I'm talking about? No, you won't believe it. No one knows you better than me. You only trust yourself."

Li Mo: “…”

Irene: "Are you still thinking about my abilities and patterns? Mr. Detective is as cautious as ever... How about this? You do me a favor, and when we meet again, I'll tell you all about my abilities and patterns."

Li Mo: "What's the matter?"

It is very rare for a ghost to actively propose a deal with a living person.

Especially since Irene could force Li Mo to do anything, yet she still had to deal with him fairly.

Irene threw a rosemary flower to Li Mo and smiled sweetly.

"Kiss it, and keep it with you until July 15th is over. You can throw it away, but you won't, because you need it."

"After all, even I can't save Mr. Detective after his death. Once he's dead, he's truly dead. No one can save the soul that has fallen into the underworld except for her."

"Well, I have to go. Before I leave, let me give you a little gift."

Irene walked forward again and climbed onto Li Mo's body, but did not take the next step.

Instead, she took away Li Mo's old and strange pistol, and her slender and soft fingers glowed with a faint pink luster.

The strange pistol seemed to be coated with a layer of olive oil, becoming clear and shiny, and it changed from an ancient gun to a modern pistol.

It was closer to a fire system before, but now it deserves to be called a pistol.

"Mr. Detective, next time we meet, don't forget my name, otherwise..."

"You will be in great pain."

Before he finished speaking, Irene on Li Mo's body turned into sparks and disappeared in the room.

Only the residual warmth on her skin and the rich floral scent filling the room proved that she had been here.

The human-headed ghost was put back to its original place, and nothing changed.

After Irene left, the cold and gloomy aura in his mind returned, and Guiya's left hand was gradually recovering.

Li Mo looked at the brand new, upgraded strange pistol in his hand, then looked at the open door of the compartment, and suddenly a bold and feasible idea emerged in his mind.

Chapter 34 Weird Red Kite (1w)

He had to leave the compartment and close the door.

I was judged to be a ghost and couldn't close the door.

But with this upgraded and strange pistol, everything is unknown.

By suppressing the strange ability with the strange pistol, perhaps you can be temporarily identified as a living person by the compartment.

"First, let's check if Irene has tampered with the strange pistol. Simply upgrading it would be too kind."

"Nothing comes for free."

Li Mo is well aware of this truth. All the gifts bestowed by fate have actually been secretly marked with a price.

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, Irene needs to live on her own and then do something for her that only she can do.

As for what Irene said before leaving, after kissing the rosemary, she would tell Li Mo all the rules and abilities when they met next time.

Li Mo didn't take it to heart. It wasn't that he didn't want to believe it, but that he didn't dare to believe it.

"She is indeed right. I only believe in myself."

Li Mo walked up to the burnt human skin and reached out to touch it.

The human skin fusion that had been encountered before did not appear. The charred human skin on the ground was like a dead body lying in the wilderness, with no sign of survival. Even the laws above it had become silent.

Neither eye contact, nor touching, nor satisfying both at the same time, could trigger the Burnt Human Skin Ghost's pattern.

"Is it so completely silent?"

Li Mo withdrew his hand and stared thoughtfully at the pile of black human skin in front of him.

The human-skin ghosts were not dead, and a faint strange aura was still flowing in their bodies, but the remaining aura was too little, so little that it was difficult for them to even revive, and their healing ability seemed to have lost its effect.

Compared with the completely silent human-skin ghost, the human-head ghost and ghost stomach are in a state of panic. Both of them only need a small opportunity stimulation from the outside world to wake them up from silence.

The depth of silence is completely different.

The Nether Fire did not kill the human-skin ghost directly, thus avoiding the restart pattern.

But it also burned them to the point of death and suppressed healing.

Judging from this situation, it will take at least half a month for the human-skin ghost that was silenced by the burning of the underworld fire to make a comeback.

If everything goes well, Li Mo will have dealt with all the weirdness on Taixu Mountain, including those that are about to revive.

"We can't shoot at them anymore, otherwise it might directly cause the Human Skin Ghost to die and restart."

"Waiting for the next wave of ghost attacks? No, it's too dangerous. My current condition doesn't allow me to use my strange power again."

"No chance to verify the power of the strange pistol. Let's get straight to the point and test it on me."

Li Mo pointed the strange pistol at his right hand, using the strange pistol's ability to break the rules and restore the hand's human judgment.

Guiya's left hand is not good. Whether it shoots or not, its nature is weird.

Before the three deaths, it could still be judged by Li Mo, but after the three deaths, it became truly weird. Even if there was no risk of resurrection and it was securely connected to Li Mo's arm, it could not change its weird nature.

"boom!"

The gunshot rang out, and the blue-purple dark fire began to burn his right hand.

At first, the right hand healed at an extremely fast speed, allowing the burnt skin to coagulate again.

Gradually, the healing speed became slower and slower, until it almost stopped healing, and the entire arm presented a bloody and horrifying picture.

The netherworld fire burned the skin, revealing the blood vessels and muscle tissue inside, and then turned into maggots on the tarsal bones, which squirmed, flickered, and spread wildly on it.

After just a few seconds, the flesh and blood were burned to a dark black, and the smell of burnt meat began to spread in the air.

Li Mo walked to the door of the wing room again and raised his weak right hand with difficulty.

Finally, the right hand was not judged as a ghost and was able to close the door.

"Still burning?"

Li Mo looked at the increasingly ferocious Nether Fire and used physical methods to insert his arm into the ground, but the Nether Fire still did not disappear.

And spread towards the left hand and brain.
