Odd Containment Specialist

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."

"Master Xia Shou? Why are you opening the door?" Alice asked doubtfully.

When Xia Shou heard this, he knew that the person knocking on the door was Su Weiyu. He walked to the door and opened it in person without further explanation.

"Good morning!"

Su Weiyu smiled and said hello, walked into the dormitory with a breakfast bag, and observed the dormitory curiously.

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

In contrast, Xia Shou's dormitory was extremely clean, probably because of Alice.

"We're just about to go out, let's go together. Brother Bai already made an agreement with the analysis department yesterday to arrange for us to watch a movie today. Xiaoyue should be here soon."

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

Xia Shou's cell 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 are already here, let's go there too." Xia Shou said.

When they arrived at the screening room, as soon as Su Weiyu saw Su Yue, she excitedly ran up to touch Su Yue's head and said hello to Su Yue.

She hugged Su Yue's neck from behind and put her chin on Su Yue's shoulder, like a pair of sisters who had been close to each other since childhood.

Su Yue, in her sister's arms, greeted Xia Shou with a smile: "Brother Xia Shou, good morning."

"I just happened to be buying breakfast. There was too much." Xia Shou awkwardly picked up the bag in his hand.

"It doesn't matter. It can be eaten as a snack when watching a movie later. By the way, Brother Bai, should we watch the movie at twice the speed? It will be more efficient." Su Yue turned around and asked Bai He for his opinion.

"The analysis department recommended that we watch the movie normally. They also released the corresponding test paper overnight. After watching a movie, we can do the questions once. This can improve our understanding of the movie."

Bai He adjusted the projector and the movie started playing. The first one was "The Silence of the Lambs".

They each picked a seat and sat down, just like in a movie theater. Bai He also prepared a lot of popcorn and soda drinks.

After watching the first movie, it was still very relaxing. Compared with the daily routine of writing reports at work, it was not too relaxing. But when it came time to do the questions, Xia Shou felt a little overwhelmed.

It's okay to ask him to watch a movie, but it's a bit difficult for him to analyze a movie from an academic and aesthetic perspective.

After repeating this cycle several times, after watching two movies in the morning, Xia Shou felt that his head was wandering. All that was left in his mind was the analysis of Hannibal's cannibalism and the impact of Hannibal's image design on the audience. .

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

At night, when Xia Shou was taking a break, he came outside to get some air.

There was a new moon hanging in the sky, and there was not a single thin cloud in the night sky. Xia Shou thought of the ritual mentioned in the death note, so he took a leave of absence and was temporarily freed from the task of watching movies.

Today is the night of the new moon, and he will take the Death Note to perform the ceremony.

He took a taxi to the outskirts of the country with his Death Record Notes alone. After walking for a while, he found an uninhabited dense forest that met the requirements.

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

Natsu Shou didn't recognize the spells, but Alice did. Alice said she didn't know what language they were in, but she recognized them and knew their meaning.

If translated into Mandarin, it would be a plea to the waning moon to tell some forbidden secrets.

As Alice began to recite the incantation, the shadows of the surrounding trees suddenly dimmed, the night became darker, and the new moon became brighter. The rustling of leaves in the air, the sounds of night birds and the wind disappeared. .

The pattern of the magic circle under Xia Shou's feet exuded a milky-white brilliance. The crescent moon in the sky, which had been enlarged several times at some point, had cracks on 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.

Tell secrets.

Xia Shou opened the death note and said, "I have already performed the ceremony."

There is no greeting in the dead notes. Just like an academic book, lines of objective descriptions without emotions begin to appear directly.

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

Notes can only be written on two pages at a time. If you add questions and answers, it will waste too much page space, so I decided to write everything that must be said first.

[Secret Messenger: The god who reveals secrets, knows all the secrets that have ever existed in the world.

The messenger and Zangyue have been enemies forever. Now is the era of secret keeping led by Zangyue, so the name of this god has become taboo.

Waning Moon prohibits insiders from spreading his name in any way. Unless permitted by Waning Moon, the leaker himself will be erased along with the existence of the listener.

Nowadays, there are very few followers of the secret messengers. They have lost the qualification to tell the secrets and are waiting for the era of leaking secrets to come, just like the era when the secret messengers had the upper hand.

But today, there are still people who can rely on the power of the messenger. 】

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

[You can't know about your affairs. Once you know, someone will find you, and the secret may be leaked. (I don't know what the secret is either)

Even when you don't know anything, two people have already found you.

I can't do anything about those two people. The situation is beyond my control. You are in this magic circle, summon the black jade door of Merlin's House, go in again, and return before the new moon falls. ]

Xia Shou stared at these words in shock. Except for the beginning when he just crossed into this world, the Death Record Note has never been so frugal. It only conveys the most necessary practices.

Xia Shou has countless questions to know at this time.

What is the secret that the Death Record Note doesn't know?

What is the relationship between the two people who came to him and the notes?

What is the connection between the secret of the person who conveys the secret and these things?

He really wanted to ask, but he also knew that 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, help me open the door."

"Yes, Lord 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.
