Mystery: The Undead Don't Die from Linking the Fire

Chapter 36 I'm sorry, I came at the wrong time.

evening.

117 Burningham Road, Hillston Borough.

Fors sat on the sofa, looking at her short friend standing in front of the fireplace with a serious expression, and felt a little helpless.

"Hugh, I've already told you things aren't what you think!"

"It's all a misunderstanding, there's really nothing between him and me!"

"Don't try to fool me."

Hugh Deercha said with a straight face and no expression, "I heard it with my own ears."

"So I said it was a misunderstanding!"

Fors gave a wry smile, knowing that things wouldn't be settled easily without a clear explanation, so he could only say, "You should know what day it is today, right?"

"May 25th?"

Hugh frowned slightly and asked curiously, "Is it some special day?"

"Today is a full moon."

Fors pointed to the ceiling with a hint of helplessness. "Think about it, even if I really wanted to have something happen with someone, I wouldn't choose a time like this, would I?"

Xiu was slightly taken aback before realizing that today was indeed a full moon.

And as Fors said.

Even if she really wanted to have something happen with that guy named Ash, it wouldn't be now.

Because every full moon, Fors would hear strange murmurs—

The ramblings were enough to torment her to the point of losing control.

Although Fors always said it was nothing, Hugh clearly heard Fors's unspeakable murmurs, and the pain and torment she suffered were beyond Hugh's imagination.

Even though Fors always acted as if nothing had happened the day after each full moon.

If she really wanted to have something more than friendship with Mr. Ash, she wouldn't have chosen a full moon.

But how do you explain the conversations she overheard at Viscount Greenwright's villa?

"He was also an extraordinary person."

Seeing that her friend was still clueless, Fors could only helplessly explain in more straightforward terms, "Besides, he also has a way to help me get rid of my delirium, which is why we agreed to meet tonight."

"Solve the delirium? Him?"

Hugh looked enlightened, but his face quickly returned to one of disbelief.

"You mean you can just find anyone who can solve the delirium that's been tormenting you for over a year?"

Hugh stared intently at Fors with an expression that seemed to say, "Do I look like an idiot to you?"

"It's not just any random thing."

Fors whispered, "He is a Night Watchman of the Church of the Night, and he is an apprentice like me, which is why I believe he has the ability to solve delirium."

"An official Extraordinary? You're insane!"

Hugh's expression changed drastically; they were wild extraordinary beings!

How dare you connect with the official Extraordinary Ones?

What's even more suffocating is that Fors actually revealed the information about her being tormented by delirium!

If the official Beyonders only knew that she was a wild Beyonder, they might not have captured her but instead tried to recruit her as their informant.

But once people find out that she suffers from delirium every full moon, those official extraordinary beings will never let her go!

Now, Fors actually dares to take the initiative to find an official Extraordinary to solve her delirium problem.

Isn't this just courting death?

"There shouldn't be any problems..."

Fors shrank back under Hugh's gaze and said weakly, "Besides, it wasn't me who told him about the talking in his sleep. I'm not that stupid. He figured it out himself, otherwise I wouldn't have believed him, right?"

"How dare you say that?"

Upon hearing this, Xiu was immediately enraged. He glared at her irritably, "If that's the case, I think you might as well just turn yourself in to the Church of the Night. That might be more convenient!"

Xiu was furious, but Fors winked at her instead.

Hugh initially thought she was teasing him again, but he quickly realized something was wrong.

When she turned around alertly, she found a strange man standing behind her.

"I'm sorry, I think I've arrived at the wrong time."

Yu Jin watched the two arguing women and said silently, "You two continue, I'll wait outside and come back later."

"No, you've come at just the right time."

Fors quickly stepped forward and pulled him back; she didn't want to continue arguing with Hugh.

Just as Fors grabbed Ember's arm, she met her friend's suspicious gaze and hurriedly explained, "The full moon is coming soon. If you leave now, you might not make it in time."

"Should I avoid this area?"

Xiu withdrew his suspicious gaze and asked.

Although it seemed like a friendly inquiry, her gaze towards Yu Jin carried a hint of wariness and scrutiny.

She wasn't Fors; she wouldn't so easily trust someone of unknown origin.

"this……"

Fors hesitated for a moment; she didn't want her friend to see her when she was having an "attack."

It seems that this is not something she can decide.

"Need not."

Yu Jin shook his head and said slowly, "You'd better stay here and watch."

Then, Ember turned his gaze to Fors, "I think you probably also hope that if you lose control, it will be your friend who kills you, not a stranger, right?"

"I……"

Her red lips parted slightly, but Fors couldn't say anything; she just lowered her head, looking somewhat dejected.

"out of control?!"

Hugh said in a deep voice, "What do you mean? Didn't you come here to help 'treat' Fors?"

"Yes."

Yu Jin said frankly, "But in the end, this is just an experiment, and I can't guarantee that it will be successful."

"stop!"

Fors grabbed Hugh's hand to stop her friend from saying anything, and pleaded in a low voice, "That's enough, please."

"..."

Looking at his pleading friend, Hugh remained silent for a long time before raising his head again and saying in a dry voice, "Okay."

She is not stupid.

Fors's condition was clearly not right.

Although she said that her delirium had little effect on her, her attitude showed that she was well aware that it was causing her more and more harm, and that if it continued like this, it wouldn't be long before it completely spiraled out of control.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been in such a hurry to seek help from a stranger.

Even if threatened by Ember, she could easily reveal everything after her release from prison.

They could leave Backlund together and find a place where no one knows them to start a new life.

But Fors didn't do that; instead, she only told him everything today—

This was after short sellers discovered something amiss and pressed them for answers.

Otherwise, she believed Fors would keep it from her until the day she lost control because she couldn't stand the babbling.

If this continues...

Even without Yu Jin's intervention, she would have eventually spiraled out of control.

if it is like this.

Perhaps it would be the best relief for Fors to have her personally see him off, as her friend.

"Let's get to know each other again."

Hugh took a deep breath and reached out his hand to Ember. "Hugh Deercha."

After a long silence, Yu Jin slowly reached out his hand.

"ember."
