I'm a male god in Liyue

"So, I still suggest you go over there this afternoon and search carefully. You might be able to find the thing that's attracting them. Once you take it away or destroy it, they shouldn't gather there anymore."

"I understand, thank you for reminding me."

"No need to thank me, we're best friends! I'm off."

Wendy waved her hand and turned to leave.

Xia Zhi smiled, feeling that this matter was no less serious than exorcising evil spirits.

Lisa has finished reading that novel in the last few days.

Before leaving, she returned the novel to Amber and expressed her gratitude.

Amber smiled and said, "You're welcome." Turning her head, she saw Cole looking at the book in her hand and assumed she was interested, so she began to recommend it to her.

"Colette, I have a really good book. You can borrow it to read."

"I... I'm not very literate... This is Liyue script..."

"It's okay, you're not very familiar with them anyway, so they all look pretty much the same."

"I……"

"This book was written by Mr. Xia."

"Mr. Xia..."

My best friend recommended a novel written by the person I'm most grateful to, so I had to read it.

Cole took the book from Amber with both hands, a determined look flashing across his face.

You should try to read more books.

Chapter 5018 The Long Night (19K)

In the afternoon, everyone went to the shop they had just bought.

Xia Zhi first asked everyone to search the shop to see if they could find any strange items.

Everyone treated it like a treasure hunt, running up and down the stairs several times, but still found nothing.

It seems that we can't find the thing Wendy mentioned using the normal methods.

Xia Zhi thought for a moment, then took out the [Object Finder Compass] and handed it to Shen He.

If a superior item of platinum quality is present nearby, the compass needle will point in the direction of that item (the closest one).

As soon as it was taken out, the compass needle began to deflect, eventually stopping slowly in front of Shen He's left.

Shen He said softly, "Over there."

"it is good."

Xia Zhi followed the directions and walked towards the corner of the wall.

This place is an ordinary little cabinet.

Xia Zhi carefully examined the cabinet from a god-like perspective and finally found a thin candy wrapper at its bottom.

It looks like just a piece of waste paper that was carelessly thrown away after eating the candy, with a little bit of icing sugar still stuck to it.

Xia Zhi squatted down, took it off, and put it into his inventory.

The Nameless Candy Wrapper

Quality: Silver.

Type: Special item.

Features: None.

Effect: Paper scraps with some strange icing residue will attract spirits.

Hidden effects: None.

Non-recyclable.

Xia Zhi checked it and, according to the item's description, the candy wrapper was indeed an ordinary red candy wrapper, with only a little bit of icing sugar stuck to it.

It is precisely because of the icing that nearby spirits gather there, wanting to compete for the food.

Perhaps because the candy wrapper was in such an obstructed location, and the spirits weren't intelligent enough, they couldn't get the candy. Instead, they kept pushing things around in the room, making strange noises late at night, which made the people nearby think it was haunted.

Although, this could indeed be considered a ghost story.

"Boss, is this the reason for the ghost story?"

"Yes."

"It looks like a candy wrapper."

"It's not just similar, it is exactly what it is."

"Why!?"

Klee suddenly shouted.

"What's wrong, Klee?"

"Klee seems to have seen this before!"

"Have you met Klee before?"

"Hmm! It looks so familiar!"

"Does Klee remember where we met before?"

"Klee thought for a moment, it seems like...it seems like...ah...Klee remembers! It's at home!"

"Home?"

"Mmm! Once when Mom came back from outside, she brought Keli a jar of candy. The wrappers were all colorful and it tasted really good. One of them looked like the one the older brother was holding."

"Didn't your mother tell you what to be careful about?"

"Mom said I can't eat candy outside the house."

"So, Klee actually left this candy wrapper outside, right?"

"Klee doesn't know!"

"do not know?"

"Because Claire always eats candy at home."

"Maybe it was Klee who littered and it got blown away by the wind and ended up here."

"Klee doesn't know."

"Looks like I can't litter anymore."

Xia Zhi casually put the candy wrapper away. Although he could have burned it with the [True Fire of the Sun], he figured keeping it might lead to something more interesting in the future.

Night falls.

Noelle was still washing dishes at the Knights of Favonius's headquarters.

She looked up and gazed out the window at the world outside.

It was a dark and quiet night.

Nights like this are perfect for doing bad things.

Such a night is also perfect for heroes of the night.

The power after the transformation is so strong, so captivating.

Unfortunately, Noelle sighed. It was a pity that her transformation device wasn't fully charged yet, otherwise she could have become a righteous magical girl with Fischl and Nana tonight.

However, it seems that the duration of a magical girl's transformation is also related to the purity of her faith.

In other words, even if all three of them transform at the same time, Noelle is the first to transform back.

As expected, it still didn't work.

Noelle kept her head down, looking somewhat listless.

I just finished a walk.

Amber took Cole to the bookstore to buy her a Liyue dictionary.

Because Cole had been a wanderer since childhood, her cultural background was extremely poor; she was practically illiterate.

Without a dictionary, she really couldn't understand a single book.

Upon entering the bookstore, Amber asked the waiter to bring over the dictionary, paid for it, and handed it to Cole.

Cole quickly replied, "I have money."

Amber laughed and said, "It's alright, just consider it a gift from me to celebrate your recovery."
