Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“The one who suggested the game told us a legend. At midnight, while holding a candle, if one stood in front of the mirror and said ‘Bloody Mary’ three times, he would be able to see Bloody Mary. Apparently, Bloody Mary can foresee the future. We were curious then…”

“So you wanted to try it?” Chu He’s expression turned serious.
He really did not know what these girls were thinking.
It was such a dangerous psychic game, but they wanted to try it out of curiosity.
Were they tired of living?
“Tell me the details.”
The girl nodded and continued, “We turned all the lights off at the time. Everyone had a candle in their hand.”
“Because I have a huge full-length mirror in my house, everyone can stand before it at the same time. We all stood in front of the mirror and waited for midnight to arrive.”
“Two minutes before midnight, one of the candles in a friend’s hand suddenly went out, so we helped him find a match to light it up again.”
“Just as his candle was lit, we turned around and saw a woman in a medieval red dress in the mirror.”
“This woman is Bloody Mary. She had a knife in her hand. It’s the knife we used to cut the cake earlier. But the cream on the knife had turned into blood.”
“Bloody Mary said that she wanted to play a little game with us. If we fail, she’ll use this knife that cuts the cake to slice our heads apart like a cake.”

“She made each of us take a candle and hide in the compound before she came to search for us. There’s a piece of paper taped to each of our backs, like the one you saw.”
That was the story.
Julie took out the paper from her pocket.
The terrifying woman drawn on it was obviously Bloody Mary that she had mentioned in her story.
“We were all scared out of our wits and hid in the residential area. However, she found three of our companions. Later, we found out that as long as we had this piece of paper, she could appear at any time!”
Chu He held the piece of paper and gently swiped his finger across it.
It seemed that the paper was infused with black magic power.
This so-called Bloody Mary did not seem to be as simple as it looked. It should be a very troublesome demonic creature.
“The three companions who were found by Bloody Mary died one after another.”
“The first and second were from the same dorm. They were found dead in the dorms of St. Peter’s High School. The bodies were intact with no issues or any signs of injury. But according to the autopsy, inside their brains—”
At this point, Julie paused, as if she was unable to speak.
Resisting the nausea and fear, Julie said softly, “Their brains were gone. Someone seemed to have taken them away. There were some words written in blood on the table in the dormitory they died in.”
Very delicious.

“The third person is a male classmate who died the night before yesterday. Our school had already suspended classes at that time, so everyone returned home. When he died, his whole body was covered with traces of torture, including some sexual abuse. According to the forensic examination, the reason for his death was shock. Until now, no one knows what he experienced that night.”

After hearing all that, Chu He nodded.
He had basically heard everything clearly.
“Since this piece of paper will lead Bloody Mary to you, why don’t you throw it away?”
Julie quickly shook her head, her face filled with fear.
“We don’t dare to!”
“When Bloody Mary gave us this piece of paper, she said that we could never break it or lose it. When this piece of paper is damaged, she will come and kill us. If this piece of paper is away from us for more than three hours, we will also die.”
Chu He nodded.
No wonder Julie was so nervous after losing the paper.
The paper concerned their safety.
“We had no choice but to seek help from the mages. However, Bloody Mary warned us that we can’t let anyone else know about this game…”
“I’m telling you this because I don’t have a choice. Maybe—” While saying this, Julie sobbed.

She told the story to Chu He, it was uncertain what she would face now.
“Don’t worry.”
The coffee was already served, so Chu He placed a cup of hot cocoa in front of her.
Drinking hot drinks could help a person to calm down.
“If you didn’t meet me and didn’t lose this piece of paper, what were you planning to do?”
“I planned to find the student who suggested playing the psychic game. If it weren’t for him, we wouldn’t be in such a miserable state. Since he knows about this psychic game, he might have a solution.”
Chu He shook his head.
This demonic creature had already locked onto them. Unless they killed it, there was no other way.
But from Julie’s point of view, there was nothing wrong with doing so.
“Can you gather everyone? I should be able to help you.”
Julie shook her head. “That will be hard. I’m afraid it’s impossible for anyone but my brother to trust you. Are you a mage?”
Chu He smiled but he did not admit or deny it.

Instead, he asked another question, “Among the people who participated in this psychic game, how many are still alive?”
