The notebook paused for a few seconds and quickly erased the previous content.

My name is Saori Tsuruyu, and I'm troubled by the final rites of a funeral...

"Cunning guy..."

"Since you know this, then tell me, what should I do to ensure my brother's successful burial." Saori Tsuruyu asked, imitating Li Mo's tone.

[My name is Saori Tsuruyu, and I admire someone very much. If possible, I would become his fanatical believer.]

[But even gods will fall and be "polluted" one day, whether it's him or her.]

[If pollution is not restricted, it will only spread endlessly until it assimilates all worlds.]

[I'm currently in a dilemma. I need to fulfill his last instructions and ensure that this coffin is completely buried.]

But I am alone, unable to lift the coffin and hold the incense at the same time.

"What if I don't hold the incense at the grave?" Saori Tsuruyu suddenly asked.

My name is Saori Tsuruyu. At six o'clock tonight, I confirmed that Shigure Kirara was not breathing, had no heartbeat, and was completely dead.

Shigure Kirara couldn't possibly wake up. I no longer expected a miracle. To complete the burial ceremony as quickly as possible, I tried my best to lift the black coffin and walked out of the auditorium without the protection of incense.

At 6:02 pm, I died.

"How could this be..." Saori Tsuruyu was stunned.

She carried the coffin out of the auditorium before seven o'clock in the evening, so there shouldn't be any headless ghosts.

Sure enough, my brother was right.

Saori Tsuruyou bit her lip, remembering Li Mo's last reminder that they must bring grave incense when they were buried.

Never take chances!

Saori Tsuruyu reminded herself again in her heart.

"Are those who left early this morning all dead? Never mind. What does it have to do with me? I tried to keep them. I shouldn't be held responsible for their deaths."

"Let's not worry about anything else. I want to know how I can complete the burial ceremony safely."

My name is Saori Tsuruyu. At noon, I entered the school infirmary carrying incense. Inside, I found a piece of paper that had almost been burned to ashes, with a pure white hair on it.

I brought this pure white hair ribbon back to the auditorium and placed it on Shigure Kirara's head.

At one in the afternoon, Shigure Kirara regained consciousness. She was in excellent condition, so excellent that... it frightened me, because the closer Shigure Kirara got to me, the faster the incense burned.

[But I didn't have time to think about this anymore. I told Shigure Kirara my idea, and she readily agreed.]

She carried the coffin, and I held the incense sticks. The two of us worked together to complete the final funeral.

At 2:12 PM, I dropped the notebook into the black coffin. The coffin was successfully lowered into the ground, and the funeral was over.

"Shigure Kirara" asked me to leave first, and stayed behind to handle some "special matters." I originally wanted to join her team, but was persuaded to leave because I was "not an A-rank Valkyrie."

At 2:50 p.m., I walked to the school gate and climbed over the wall.

[At three o'clock in the afternoon, I left St. Freya's College.]

【My name is Saori Tsuruyu, and I survived. 】

Looking at the contents on the notebook, Saori Tsuruyu vaguely sensed that something was wrong. She racked her brains but couldn't figure out which sentence was problematic.

However, Saori Tsuruyu was sure that there was something wrong with the first sentence, because Li Mo mentioned that the infirmary was a place that was absolutely not allowed to be entered.

But the notebook led him to this place, a room where no strangers could enter, even with the protection of the incense of the grave...

Is the self that comes out really yourself?

"I have no other choice. High Noon and the incense of the grave should be the factors that protect me from strange attacks. I must remember them."

"A piece of paper that's almost burned to ashes. Is that something my brother left behind? Wait...it might be that special gun. It won't cause much damage to a person, but if it hits someone strangely, it will ignite a blue-purple flame."

"So that piece of paper is strange. It was shot by my brother and turned into ash. There must be something wrong with the pure white hair on it."

"But risks and rewards are directly proportional. How can ordinary hair possibly revive Shigure Kirara, who is about to die?"

Saori Tsuruyu looked at the notebook hesitantly, feeling a little scared.

"It's terrifying... Every word it says seems to be for my own good, and I have no choice but to do exactly what it says. If I keep going like this, I'll just become its puppet, and I might be backstabbed one day."

Saori Tsuruyu understands Li Mo even better.

"No wonder brother doesn't take it out until the critical moment. It's not that it's difficult to use, but he doesn't dare to use it."

The notebook is so useful that no matter what happens, it seems as long as I ask it for help, I can survive safely.

In this way, people will become extremely dependent on the notebook, and even become the notebook's agent in the world, doing whatever it says.

Most people only focus on its ability to help them escape from desperate situations, but ignore how the desperate situations came about.

Perhaps the desperate situation and the help for the host to escape from it were all planned by the notebook.

"It's only eight o'clock now, and there's still some time until noon. Let me think about what I can do during this time..."

"I must not leave the auditorium. Even if I do, I must bring incense with me. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll die outside right away."

Saori Tsuruyu analyzed calmly, pacing back and forth beside Shigure Kirara.

Suddenly, as if he thought of something, he squatted down, put his finger under Shi Yu Qiluo's nose, and then lowered his head to her chest to listen to her heartbeat.

"The breathing is very weak and the heartbeat is not noticeable."

Saori Tsuruyu carefully turned Shigure Kirara to the side, and the holy marks on her back became blurred as if weathered.

When the stigmata fade completely, the thread that holds life together will break immediately.

"So the notebook didn't lie. If I didn't do this, Shigure Kirara would definitely die at six o'clock tonight."

"If she dies, I won't be able to complete the burial, so I have to go to the infirmary, even if there are traps inside."

Saori Tsuruyu came to a conclusion and tried hard to think about whether there were other secrets in what the notebook said.

If Li Mo was here, the notebook would not reveal its intentions and secrets so obviously. Even if it was explicit, it might not be true.

And because the current host is Saori Tsuruyu, the notebook can naturally tell some secrets in a big way. Even if Saori Tsuruyu knows that something is wrong, she doesn't know what the source of the strangeness is or what it means.

Chapter 48 The Strange Shigure Kirara

Soon, noon was approaching, and Saori Tsuruyou carefully picked up the last incense stick and left the auditorium.

The moment he walked out of the auditorium, the incense shook a little, but it only shook for a moment before returning to its original state.

"The sun is so bright...I can hardly open my eyes."

Saori Tsuruyu didn't dare to raise her hands to cover herself. Both of her hands were holding the grave incense, and a thermometer was tied to her leg.

On the playground not far away, a gray-black-skinned child... no, now he has become a baby, was also unable to open his eyes due to the burning of the fierce sun.

He could only move around aimlessly, like a headless fly, with no regular pattern in his movements.

Saori Tsuruyu walked a little faster, not daring to stay outside for too long, for fear of any accidents.

She arrived at the door of the infirmary and found something very obvious wrong.

The door was opened, and there were several scarlet bloody handprints on the window. Judging from the size, it was roughly estimated that they were women's palms.

"You can't come in through the door, you have to climb in through the window."

Saori Tsuruyu found the window, opened it, and carefully climbed in.

As soon as I entered the house, a strong stench of corpse hit me in the face.

"It feels like I stepped on something... soft."

Saori Tsuruyu looked down and saw a headless female body on the ground. Judging from her clothes, she was the student who had left before.

Saori Tsuru looked around and saw a total of six headless female corpses in the room.

It was the six people who left in the morning.

"How did they get here? Didn't my brother tell us not to go to the infirmary?"

"No, they probably didn't come here voluntarily. Judging from their behavior this morning, they all want to leave this damn place as soon as possible. They won't get anything by coming to the infirmary, so there's no need for it."

"It was the ghost that led them here...but that's not the point."

"My brother escaped from the infirmary before, so we can infer that there are ghosts in the infirmary, and there are quite a few of them, and they are very fierce."

“They all died here…”

Saori Tsuruyu glanced at the grave incense in her hand. It didn't shake at all, which meant that there was no strange existence around her.

It’s a bit strange... Why does the notebook insist that I bring grave incense?

"I understand. They were led to the infirmary by the ghost, so the ghost is outside the auditorium, not in the infirmary. The ghost in the infirmary was probably released a long time ago..."

"This is really bad news."

Saori Tsuruyu was a little confused. It was obvious that nothing would happen if she didn't touch it, so why did it have to fail at the critical moment?

This is no longer a question of whether or not to obey, it is a complete waste of Li Mo's efforts.

"We can only think of a way later and survive. There is still hope."

Saori Tsuruyu began to concentrate on looking for the ashes mentioned in the notebook, and finally found it next to a corner of the table. Only half the size of a palm was left, and the black paper was surrounded by scattered ashes.

A strand of pure white hair lay flat on it, looking strange among the ashes.

"Isn't this hair a little too long? It's as tall as me... no, it's even longer than me."

Saori Tsuruyu squatted down and just as she stretched out her hand to pick up the hair, the incense in her other hand shook violently and burned at a terrifying speed. If this speed continued, it would be completely extinguished in less than three minutes.

"it's time to go!"

Saori Tsuruyu didn't hesitate. She put her hair in her bag and quickly climbed over the window without any delay.

She judged that a ghost was approaching the infirmary, and the zero degrees on the thermometer seemed to confirm this.

However, the source of the weirdness seemed to come from an inconspicuous pure white hair.

When the hair was placed in the bag and no longer near the grave incense, the grave incense returned to normal and no longer burned violently.

"Huh... I was so scared. Were there a lot of ghosts outside just now? I didn't dare to look. In that situation, leaving quickly is the best option. I'm not sure if the grave incense will still be effective if the ghosts are right in front of me..."

Saori Tsuruyu was breathing heavily, her chest rising and falling in a large arc.

It was clearly just an extremely simple thing, just getting something and coming back, but it felt like a brush with death.

The world must be crazy, and she was crazy with it.

The clock showed that the current time was twelve fifty, which was almost the same time as the awakening predicted by the notebook, because Saori Tsuruyu did not rush to put the hair on Shigure Kirara's head as soon as she got it back.

She observed it again and again, but found nothing unusual no matter how she looked.

"Should I follow the notebook and have Shigure Kirara wake up at exactly one in the afternoon?"

Saori Tsuruyu fell into deep thought, but a thought flashed through her mind: What if I miss this time and Shigure Kirara has no chance to wake up?

She had no choice, she had to complete the burial, so every step could not go wrong.

I can only trust the notebook.

Saori Tsuruyu straightened the pure white hair and gently placed it on Shigure Kirara's head.

Soon, a strange change occurred. The pure white hair seemed to come alive and invaded the hair follicles on Shigure Kirara's head like nematodes, becoming part of the countless hairs.

"Aho-ge? It's... quite cute. Shigure Kirara won't blame me, right?"

Saori Tsuruyu scratched her head. Shigure Kirara's painting style seemed to become strange.

There is a pure white hair on top of the sky blue hair.

It looks cute, but danger is actually lurking.

When pure white hair became part of Shigure Kirara's hair, her body underwent subtle changes.

Miraculously, the gap on the neck healed quickly.

But what was different from the weirdness was that her skin color was still healthy, and her face was even redder, smoother and more tender, as attractive as if she had just come out of the bath.

The notebook never lies, Shigure Kirara is indeed in good condition.

"Hmm... Am I dead? Is this... the auditorium?" Shigure Qiluo's consciousness was unclear. She slowly opened her eyes and looked around roughly. At first, she didn't notice anyone around her.

Because some died, some left, and only Saori Tsuruyu was left standing behind.
