It doesn't seem right no matter how I think about it...?
......
White doves fluttered in the air, and the bright midday sun shone brightly.
After getting off the carriage, Alice held up her hand to block the strong light, her dark red eyes moving downwards to rest on the church across the square.
——"St. Auros Cathedral".
A week ago, an anonymous letter stated that Xinghai Spring had been infected by a curse, and the church confirmed it.
At this time, most of the residents in the northern part of the city had been infected. Considering that the ingestion of the "curse" would not have any further impact on those who were already infected, the church did not block the spring water to avoid causing further panic.
If a "holy object" is contaminated, the people's faith will be shaken.
Alice didn't care about this matter at first. After all, the current focus was to overthrow Prince Austin and solve the "curse" at the source.
But when she thought of the "Tree of Life" mentioned by the workers yesterday, her thoughts began to wander uncontrollably.
After the factory incident, Alice and church staff interviewed different workers and reconstructed the full picture of the incident:
Junior Xingsheng and Lucius were fighting against the "Immortal" and were originally at a disadvantage, but she was quick-witted and used a fireball to hit the iron chain that bound the narwhal, using the advantage of the field to win.
This statement sounded quite credible, and the workers were all of the same opinion, but Alice was puzzled by one thing.
That is, she was unable to observe the scene at that time through the "Dagger of Truth".
Alice only trusts her own eyes. Known as the "Peeping Miko," she is born with a higher level of intuition than ordinary people, which allows her to often detect when something is wrong.
For example, in the port area where the belief in goddesses is weak, the workers actually praised the gods after receiving hot soup.
For example, the "Tree of Life" mentioned by the workers, and the tree-shaped string formation under the Sunflower Hot Springs.
For example, junior Xingsheng who repeatedly appears in this series of events.
For example...that bowl of thick soup always tastes familiar.
"..."
Alice, dressed in a long black dress, crossed the square and opened the door of St. Auros Cathedral.
When her eyes adjusted to the darkness, she saw the young nuns walking around inside the church - obviously, the same young nuns from that morning.
Why are there so many nuns all of a sudden? Even though Bishop Fry Sunlight is missing, the shortage of manpower shouldn't be this severe...
Alice thought so as she glanced at the believers praying in the church, spreading her spiritual realm to try to contact them.
Well...they pray to the goddess, no problem...
Alice looked towards the altar at the end of the church, where Sister Lilitz was praying with her hands folded, like a sleeping stone statue, beautiful and sacred.
She walked across the church, ascended the altar, and waited for the Holy Sister to finish her prayers.
Soon, Lilitz lowered her head and looked at Alice with a smile in her eyes:
"May the goddess bless you, Miss Alice."
"May the goddess bless you." Alice nodded.
She glanced at the young nuns and said straight to the point:
"I'd like to inquire about staffing. Why are there so many young nuns and priests in the church whom I haven't seen before? The church hasn't received any reports of staff shortages at St. Auros Cathedral."
Saint Sister Lilitz's eyes suddenly turned to pity, and became somewhat dim:
"Those are the orphans of the port area. They have no shelter and cry out the goddess' name in the wind and rain."
"I prayed to the goddess and received a revelation that the children should be given shelter."
“So, I took them in.”
After a long string of words, Alice keenly grasped the key words -
——Port area.
"I see," Alice nodded with a smile, "Um... I need to do some research, okay?"
"Of course no problem." Li Liz nodded.
Alice walked down from the altar, came to the front of the "Star Sea Spring", and played the "Shadow String".
Pure darkness gushed out from the tip of her staff, and Alice slowly spun around, creating a black ring that enveloped herself.
This is a counter-reconnaissance measure.
After completing her preparations, Alice skillfully played the strings, and the "Dagger of Truth" condensed in her hand.
She tore open space, her spirit reaching into the shattered void beneath the world—
"Om-"
The past unfolded like a scroll, stained with a light gray, flashing quickly before Alice's eyes.
Alice locked onto the "Star Sea Spring" and continuously adjusted the timeline until it reached the limit that the "Dagger of Truth" could detect.
After a full half hour, when Alice's spiritual energy was almost exhausted, she finally checked all the people who had prayed in front of the "Star Sea Spring" in the past month.
She looked tiredly at the gray reflection in front of her: the sisters Xingsheng and Xingyu were standing in front of the spring, one was talking to Lilizi, and the other was putting her hand into the spring water.
As time rewinds, an illusory voice comes across time:
"...What are you going to do?"
"...Just maintain contact for a few minutes."
"...Sure enough, interesting, this is interesting."
Apart from these few whispered conversations, the two sisters' words were in a completely different pattern, and they were obviously acting.
"..."
Alice looked tiredly at Xing Sheng who was frozen not far away - she was talking to Saint Sister Lilitz, and the smile on her face was shy and innocent.
"Schoolgirl..." Alice murmured, "was it you who poisoned the spring water?"

Testimonials
This is the second time I’ve put it on the shelves, and suddenly I don’t know what to say about this part.
Maybe it’s because the last book took a year and a half to write and was put on the shelves, so I’m not very good at dealing with this kind of thing.
Anyway, this book has been serialized for a month now, and it's been very well received by readers. Every day, people are still replaying the ending, which is an experience I never had before when I was a single-player gamer for a year and a half...
(The Little Rose Rolling Contest is so mysterious)
Ahem...let’s get down to business.
Let’s talk about the most important thing first: the VIP chapters add up to about 40,000 words (equivalent to the 20 chapters updated on weekdays), which will directly include a climax of the plot, which is exciting to read in one go.
As for the time, it should be available when you refresh it at midnight on September 9.2nd. If not, refresh it a few more times 2333
Please subscribe! Family! Wooo ...
Also, the book club group number is: 904899564, welcome to join the group.
Okay, if you don’t want to read my rambling, you can stop reading! Quickly turn the page!
Next is the thank you session that we must have.
First of all, I would like to thank all my readers. Thank you for reading my book. As long as you are reading, my writing will have more meaning.
Then I would like to thank the old book friends who have been with me for a long time. There are actually quite a lot of readers who have read Little White Flower and Little Evil God. It is really amazing that everyone has liked me for so long... Even I hate myself from time to time.
Thanks to our editor, Sister Xizhu, she is really great and gave me a lot of support and encouragement.
Thanks to Xingbao, Yuri Lao and Mu Lao. The three of you have given me so much reward for my two books. I feel unworthy because I feel that I have not done well enough.
In no particular order, everyone I've met is important to me, really.
Love you.
If you read my writings carefully, you should be able to feel the effort I put into them. This is how I feel about writing. I will be obsessed with it and use all my strength, as if my brain cells are burning for free.
In fact, according to the follow-up reading data, the performance of this book on the shelves should not be very ideal... To be honest, in the early stage of serialization, I secretly hoped that this book could change my fate and make my royalties more and more stable, so that I could spend more time writing after graduation.
But what if it’s not ideal?
I like the story of this book very much, and I feel that she is destined to have a wonderful arc. At least I will love her very much.
This story is great to me, so I will spare no effort to complete it.
This is actually a promise: Even if the results are very poor, I will not give up easily. You know, I barely received any royalties for the first year and a half of the Little White Flower book, but I still persisted, without stopping for a single day.
If you like this story too, don't worry, I will finish it!
After all, Xingmo and Aurora are both cute, aren't they?
So... I humbly ask for a first order!
Please! I'm about to graduate! I need to make a living!
My biggest dream is to make a stable living from writing because I really like it.
So, please! (Aurora clasps her hands together.jpg)
I won’t say more, I’ve put everything into words, so let’s just enjoy it!
I am a fool who can only write stories, so I won’t say too much.
I hope my story can make you happy every day!
7) Red Epiphyllum (Part 4) -4k chapter-
"Here, brown sugar ginger tea~"
Aurora returned to the room with a cup of hot liquid and placed it on the bedside table.
Then, she put her hands behind her back and winked at Xingmo:
"Try it, this is our first time, I'll give it to you~"
"..." Xing Mo picked up the steaming ginger tea speechlessly, blew on it, and created ripples on the surface of the deep red liquid.
She lowered her head and took a small sip.
Slightly hot, slightly sweet, with a hint of ginger spiciness.
After confirming that it was non-toxic, Xing Mo took another sip, and his pale face immediately regained a lot of color.
"It tastes good." Xingmo commented.
"Hehehe~" Aurora seemed particularly happy, "Looks like I did learn a little bit."
"What did you learn?" Xing Mo looked up.
"Cooking is your most amazing ability." Aurora was very excited.
"...I'm just making ginger tea, I'm not that advanced yet," Xingmo said helplessly, "If you really want to learn how to cook, I can teach you later."
"I still need to learn. It seems too troublesome." Aurora muttered.
Xing Mo ignored him and drank the cup of ginger tea by herself. She immediately felt that the slight pain in her abdomen was relieved a lot.
Just as she was about to close her eyes and rest for a while, she felt something climbing onto the bed and pressing on her——
"Ouch!"
Xingmo opened her eyes and saw Aurora's face leaning towards her, her heart-shaped pupils twitching.
"Hey! Don't do anything naughty during your period!" Xing Mo shouted.
"I want to absorb some of your knowledge to make lunch," Aurora hesitated. "Is that not possible?"
Xing Mo took a deep breath and then firmly refuted:
"No! Every time you suck me off, I can't even get off the bed. You've never been sucked off before, so you don't know how uncomfortable it is!"
"Is it really uncomfortable?" Aurora tapped Xingmo's chin with her finger, "But every time you make a lot of comfortable sounds..."
"Ahem! That's an uncomfortable sound!" Xing Mo defended, "Hey... pull the vines back... at a time like this..."
Xingmo twisted her legs and tried to struggle, but the vines had already wrapped around her ankles, binding her tightly.
