Bizarre Honkai, a Wife-Chasing Crematorium

Li Mo crouched down, placed his hand on the girl's head, and softly asked, "What's your name?"

The girl's weak voice gently drifted out of her mouth, "Saori Tsuruyo..."

Li Mo smiled slightly, trying to ease the dead and oppressive atmosphere as much as possible, and handed the thermometer to her.

"So, you're Tsuruyo? I'm giving you a mission now, which is to keep an eye on this thermometer. If the temperature suddenly drops, you must tell me right away, understand? I will try my best to keep you and your classmates alive."

"This thermometer is very important. Don't lose it." Li Mo emphasized again.

As if she had suddenly understood something, Saori Tsuruyo grasped the thermometer with both hands, bit her lip, and nodded forcefully.

At this moment, a trace of bright light suddenly appeared in her dull eyes.

Right now, her mission was to protect this thermometer.

As long as she did that, she wouldn't have to return to that room and be with ghosts day and night.

"No, I won't lose it. I, I will protect it!" Saori Tsuruyo responded firmly.

Li Mo nodded and then looked at his watch.

6:52 PM.

"Has so much time passed..."

The time of each world's bizarre tide was different, but on average, it was from 6 PM to 6 AM the next day.

However, Li Mo had spent a lot of time observing. He saw on the school's map that school ended at 7 PM.

Combining that with the current calm situation,

the bizarre tide was less than ten minutes away.

When that time came, a hundred demons would parade, and chaos would break loose...

Even he, if he hadn't found a safe place by then, would only be walking to his death.

Li Mo quickly took out the notebook. Time was running out, and he couldn't worry about the notebook tricking him anymore.

"I need to know a safe place in this school, where we can absolutely avoid ghosts."

As soon as he finished speaking, the notebook quickly gave him an answer.

It was as if… it had been waiting for Li Mo to ask this question.

[My name is Li Mo. When you see these words, I am dying and about to be reborn.]

[I properly dealt with the intercom ghost hiding among the crowd. It will be imprisoned with its host until the host dies.]

[But it seems to have remembered my aura. Perhaps I am its most desired host.]

"Hmm...?" Li Mo's brow furrowed slightly. Was he being targeted?

But in a sense, it wasn't hard to understand.

That ghost seemed to be looking for a more perfect body. Perhaps that was why it had controlled Ekri's head to enter that strong middle-aged male's body.

And he himself had already died once. In all aspects, his physical abilities were far superior to those of normal people.

As for the aspiring Valkyries... the Honkai corruption in their bodies had probably lowered their score in the ghost's eyes.

"Continue,"

Li Mo didn't avoid discussing the notebook in front of everyone. After the mission was over and he returned to reality, he most likely wouldn't have much follow-up with them.

In their eyes, Li Mo's act of talking to a notebook seemed a bit bizarre.

If they hadn't personally experienced the supernatural events, they would definitely think that Li Mo was a severely delusional patient who had escaped from a mental hospital.

[I won't be targeted by it before the original host, Ekri, dies.]

[But I'm facing another serious problem. The bizarre tide is about to surge. I must get to a place that is absolutely safe, where I can completely avoid ghosts before 7 PM, which is within the next eight minutes.]

[Therefore, I asked the notebook. The answer is: There isn't one.]

[At 7:01 PM, I died.]

"..."

Li Mo had considered that he would die in the night parade of a hundred demons, but he didn't expect that he wouldn't even last a minute.

He still had some extreme methods that he hadn't used yet.

This meant that when the bizarre tide of 7 PM surged, he wouldn't even be able to resist.

"No, there shouldn't be a situation where death is guaranteed. Then it's very likely that my question was wrong."

Li Mo thought for a moment, then immediately asked, "If I want to survive after the bizarre tide surges, where should I go?"

[At 6:53 PM, I got the answer to how to survive.]

[At 6:55 PM, I ran downstairs with the seventeen students, including Saori Tsuruyo.]

[At 6:58 PM, I found the school's auditorium, which didn't have a door.]

[At 6:59 PM, we entered the auditorium.]

[At 7:00 PM, the bizarre tide surged. A hundred demons paraded, and all the lifeless heads began to stir, wandering the school in search of new hosts.]

[At 7:21 PM, thousands of dead heads gathered at the auditorium's entrance.]

[There seems to be something even more terrifying inside the auditorium, but I have no other choice. I'm preparing to stay here until 7 AM the next day, but the sudden appearance of a horde of head-eating ghosts put me in a desperate situation.]

[At 7:31 PM, I died.]

Li Mo closed the notebook. Although he still died, he was safe for at least half an hour inside the auditorium.

Li Mo shouted to the crowd, "Now, everyone follow me. Run to the auditorium as fast as you can. The ghosts... are about to revive."

After speaking, Li Mo didn't look back at the students.

According to the map, the auditorium was still some distance from his current location. Although the notebook predicted that he would be able to get there in time,

the future was changeable. If Li Mo had some kind of accident along the way, then the notebook's predicted ending would also cease to exist.

He had to be very careful to avoid death.

Before the others could react, Li Mo had already left.

"B-Big brother?" Saori Tsuruyo stood in place, stunned for a couple of seconds. Suddenly, someone from the crowd chased after him, and then everyone swarmed out, chasing after Li Mo.

Li Mo intentionally controlled his speed. Looking back, he found that he hadn't shaken them off. Instead, they were gradually catching up.

Although they were timid and inexperienced, their physical abilities were definitely real.

After all, they were Valkyries. Even if they were weak, they definitely wouldn't be as slow as normal women when running.

They didn't care about their hair or clothes. They just followed the leader and ran with all their might.

Soon, Li Mo led the seventeen people to the auditorium.

The auditorium didn't have a door. There were obvious lights inside, and there were more than a dozen figures when they got closer.

At the deepest part was a pitch-black coffin, five burning grave incense sticks above it, and a picture frame with no portrait hanging in the most conspicuous place. It should have been a portrait, but for some reason, there wasn't a specific person depicted.

Black coffins were mainly used for burying people who died in battle, died young, or committed suicide. In some eras, they also symbolized bad luck and evil spirits...

Yellow coffins were mainly used for burying ordinary people;

White coffins were mainly used for burying young deceased men and unmarried women;

Red coffins were mainly used for burying elders over eighty years old who had died of natural causes;

Gold coffins were mainly used for burying emperors, generals, and wealthy families.

What did a black coffin placed in the middle of the auditorium mean? A portrait with no image, five burning grave incense sticks, an auditorium with no doors...
