Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“This way…” Amelia led Alex towards a banyan tree by the water. The banyan tree was not big, and its trunk was only as thick as an adult’s thigh. Its branches extended to the river, and its roots hung into the river.

The compass needle stopped moving at this point.

Alex said, “Here?” There was nothing unusual! He put Amelia down and instructed, “Stay here. I’ll go down and take a look.”

The mud beside the banyan tree was slippery. Alex carefully walked down a few meters and looked up in the direction of the banyan tree root that was covered by the bushes. What he saw frightened him so much that his heart skipped a beat and his scalp went numb!

Under the roots of the banyan tree, a long-haired girl suddenly stood. Her dyed yellow hair hung beside her face. She lowered her head and was wearing a short top with a gray pleated skirt. Her hands were hanging down. Her arms were pale and swollen, and her nails were black. Her legs were also pale. She was wearing a pair of black loafers, and white socks with a circle of beautiful lace.

As if hearing the commotion, the girl fell into the river with a plop.

Immediately after, a sharp scream suddenly sounded in Alex’s ear. “Help! Someone fell into the water!”

Alex turned around. The wind by the river was strong, so he could not see the person who shouted, “Someone fell into the water.” However, because of this voice, people quickly surrounded. ‘Quick, someone fell into the water!’

“Help! Hurry up and save her! Does anyone know how to swim? Hurry up and save her!”

“Hurry up and call the corpse-fishing boat over there!”

Someone shouted anxiously. The shore, which originally did not have many people, was quickly surrounded by seven to eight people. There were also a few bloggers who were filming with livestream equipment. The people on the shore were all talking at once:

“Oh my god, someone fell into the water again. What should we do? 1 don’t know how to swim. Who knows how to swim? Hurry up and save them!” They were really anxious.

“It’s over, it’s over. Someone fell into the water again. Oh my god, what’s wrong with this river? Why do people always fall into the water?” This was a surprise and suspicion.

“l don’t know how to swim. Aiyo, someone is giving me a gift. Alright, I’ll risk it. I’ll go down and try now! Please pray for me, friends in the livestream!” This was without a bottom line, trying to use such words to get the audience in the livestream to send gifts.

Amidst the commotion, a middle-aged man had already quickly taken off his clothes and was about to enter the water. Seeing this situation, several streamers aimed their cameras at him.

At this moment, Amelia pulled the middle-aged man back. “Uncle, you can’t go down.”

The middle-aged man thought Amelia was worried about him and comforted her. “Don’t worry, Uncle can swim.”

Amelia was anxious. “No, there’s danger in the water…” She refused to let go no matter what. The red light emitted a faint glow, and she was so strong that the middle-aged man could not break free no matter how hard he tried.

The person beside her was anxious. “Aiyo, what’s wrong with you? Why are you wasting time here? Where’s your parent? Which family’s child are you from?!” A few people surrounded Amelia, wanting to pull her away.

Alex had just come up from the wetland by the river. When he saw the situation on the shore, he shouted coldly, “Let go! Who dares to touch my daughter!” His cold face scared the people on the shore into retracting their hands.

Alex looked around and said, “No one fell into the water. I already checked.” Everyone was surprised to see that Alex’s clothes were indeed wet.

The middle-aged man hurriedly asked, “Have you gone down to take a look?”

Alex nodded. “l looked. No one fell into the water.’

Everyone was very puzzled and confused.

When he went down to check previously, Alex had promised Amelia that he would not go into the water casually. Amelia had also given Alex a yellow talisman in advance. After seeing the female corpse jump into the water. Alex wanted to pull her up before she floated far away, but he quickly realized that something was wrong and immediately retreated to the shore. At this moment, he was lying to the crowd. He did not go into the water, at least not to rescue her. However, he was going to call the corpse fishing boat on the river surface next. The situation was unknown. He wanted to stop the ordinary people from going into the water.

However, at this moment, a middle-aged woman suddenly separated from the crowd and ran out. She shouted in panic, “Daughter, that’s my daughter!” As she spoke, she ran towards the river. Without any hesitation, she jumped down with a plop and shouted crazily, “Mimi! Mimi! Mommy is here, Mimi…”

“Come back!” Alex shouted coldly! However, the middle-aged woman refused to listen to his advice and rushed into the river..
