Chapter 13

When Lin Yifan cuffed the fraudster, the figure emitted a blinding light and distorted before dissipating.

"What's happening!"

The two fraudsters retreated in terror. Their companion had just been cuffed by Lin Yifan and vanished without a trace!

"The first one, arrested." Lin Yifan raised his handcuffs, squinting his eyes as he looked at the other two old fraudsters with squinty eyes.

The bewildered shrine maidens screamed and scattered. Lin Yifan, holding the handcuffs, sprinted towards the second fraudster.

Startled, the fraudster weakly threw his staff at Lin Yifan and then ran away in fear.

"Trying to run?" Lin Yifan leaped forward, using his knee to strike the fraudster's back, easily pinning down the second one.

"Got it!"

With a snap, the fraudster's body turned into light and dissipated.

The others had never seen such a bizarre situation. It seemed that those cuffed by Lin Yifan had their physical bodies disappear, which was extremely terrifying.

Only the last fraudster remained, panting heavily, his face filled with fear as he ran frantically.

After capturing two old fraudsters, Lin Yifan looked up in the direction the last one was fleeing. Ignoring the trembling shrine maidens, he passed through them.

He plunged into the paper doors, moving freely through the shrine. When he encountered thinner paper doors or wooden doors, he simply crashed through them. Even the thicker wooden doors could be kicked down with one kick.

The fraudster, dragging his robe, kept looking back, his face growing paler.

He had no idea who Lin Yifan was, assuming he was just another ordinary reincarnator like before.

Those reincarnators who entered this world were not of high rank, and their equipment was just ordinary hot and cold weapons. Sometimes the fraudsters didn't even bother to use the Copy贞子 (Copy Sadako), but instead sent the police to eliminate them.

But this time, Lin Yifan was too strange. He had a rare item and a fighting style of cuffing one after another, which scared the fraudster so much that he almost wet himself.

"Really... can't run anymore." The fraudster, out of breath, sat in a corner, his priest's robe in disarray, and his long black hat tilted.

The handcuffs in his hand jingled, shining silver in the dim light of the shrine.

"Stand still!" Lin Yifan grinned.

If he had rushed up the mountain directly, he would have had to face another police chase in the horror world. But now, by pretending to be crazy, Lin Yifan easily bypassed the security at the foot of the mountain, giving him the chance to get close. These three old fraudsters with squinty eyes had no resistance at all.

However, everything went so smoothly because of the fake video tape with Sadako's grudge. Without it, these three fraudsters wouldn't have let Lin Yifan get so close.

Touching his nose, Lin Yifan silently thought, "Little Sadako, once I catch the last one, you can come out."

Walking slowly towards the last fraudster, Lin Yifan noticed that the room was filled with more than just ordinary items. There were gold and silver jewels, various strange crystals, and the long, slender legs of a woman without a torso.

"Hmm!?" His eyebrows raised, Lin Yifan realized whose legs they were.

His face darkened as he looked at the fraudster and said, "You, are you hunting reincarnators?"

"Don't... don't kill me..." The old fraudster, sitting on the ground, kept retreating.

"Answer me! Have you been hunting reincarnators all along?"

The old fraudster, frightened by Lin Yifan's shout, trembled and stammered, "Y-Yes, we have always lived by hunting reincarnators. Don't kill me, take all the money, take the treasures!"

Lin Yifan's lips curled. So these three old fraudsters were the ones controlling the Copy Sadako to attack him. Now he had finally found his enemies!

"Of course, I won't kill you." Lin Yifan's mouth opened, revealing a mouthful of silver teeth, his appearance resembling a demon.

Seeing this, the fraudster, with a determined look, dragged his old body and reached for a crystal.

Lin Yifan snorted and quickly rushed forward, kicking the crystal out of the fraudster's hand and pinning him down to cuff him.

The crystal flew and hit the wall, the sound of breaking glass echoing in the room. A blinding white light flashed, and two figures emerged from the shadows.

"Don't move!"

Lin Yifan, who was about to cuff the fraudster, paused and slowly turned to look behind him.

At that moment, Yao Ling and Liu Ming were pointing guns at him. They seemed to have been teleported when the crystal broke?

"What do you two mean?" Lin Yifan released the fraudster he had pinned, his eyes narrowing as he looked at them.

Liu Ming, beads of sweat on his forehead, slightly lowered his shotgun: "Newcomer, hand over Sadako."

"Huh?" Lin Yifan realized something was off.

The old fraudster, crawling to hide behind Yao Ling and Liu Ming, shouted in panic: "I told you, it's him! He killed the other two! You have to protect me, he's the fraudster controlling Sadako!"

"What!?"

Lin Yifan was stunned. In the end, the fraudster had turned the tables on him.

Yao Ling had been coldly watching Lin Yifan. After the others finished speaking, she said, "Who are you? From Suda's leadership? Or the Steel Front?"

"Suda? Steel Front? I don't understand what you're talking about. I only know that the fraudster behind you has been controlling Sadako to hunt us."

Lin Yifan didn't understand what Yao Ling was talking about, seemingly some kind of organization.

Yao Ling, clenching her fists and gritting her teeth, said in a low voice, "Enough, stop pretending. Which group do you belong to? Our enemies are only these two."

"Don't waste time with him, kill him! He has the Sadako video tape. Kill him, get the tape, and destroy it, and you can leave!" The fraudster's shrill voice was annoying.

Yao Ling glared at the fraudster, making him shut up, then turned and said, "You saved us earlier, clearly not wanting to kill us. Our request is simple: put down the item and let us complete our mission."

"Hand over the tape, and Yao Ling and I must complete this mission. We can't wait for the three days to end. If the second mission isn't completed, we'll be in an awkward position when we return to the Infinite City." Liu Ming clearly didn't want to fight with Lin Yifan and tried to take a softer approach.

Lin Yifan glanced at Yao Ling and said calmly, "What if I don't hand it over?"

"Then... then I have to..." Yao Ling trembled, raising her gun, but she couldn't bring herself to do it.

Liu Ming then said, "Sorry, this is our group's mission. If we return without doing anything, we'll have a hard time in the group."

"Like an organization? But... I understand." Lin Yifan's tone suddenly softened, making Yao Ling's tense heart relax.

Just as the two thought everything was fine, Lin Yifan suddenly shouted, "Sadako!"

As he shouted, he silently activated "Demonization," his skin becoming rough, his right eye glowing with a ghostly light, and his fangs growing.

"What?!"

Before the two could react, just as they raised their guns, Lin Yifan sprinted forward, forcefully knocking them aside, and cuffed the damned squinty-eyed fraudster.

All of this happened in less than three seconds, and the Sadako in his backpack also emerged.

"It's Sadako? Fire!"

Yao Ling ignored Lin Yifan and aimed at Sadako.

The two raised their guns at Sadako, who, just as she emerged, turned pale. But she saw a figure blocking her.

The sound of gunfire rang out. Lin Yifan crossed his arms in front of his chest, the exorcism bullets causing a burning sensation, and his wounds spewed out a ghostly blue flame.

Seeing the ghostly flames from Lin Yifan's wounds, Little Sadako's eyes trembled, staring at Lin Yifan's back in disbelief.

"Run!" Lin Yifan blocked a few shots for Little Sadako, then pulled her hand and leaped through the roof.

Yao Ling and Liu Ming, in the room, looked at each other in shock. "Chase!"

The two rushed out of the room and into the courtyard, where they saw Lin Yifan on the roof, holding Little Sadako's head and whispering, "Come with me."

"Okay!"

Little Sadako nodded and obediently extended her arm.

"Damn!" Yao Ling raised her gun at Lin Yifan, noticing that his demonization was becoming unstable and quickly reverting to his human form.

Aiming at Lin Yifan's head, Yao Ling stared at his profile, momentarily lost in thought.

Click!

Successfully cuffing Sadako, a synthesized voice rang in his head.

"Trial mission completed. Congratulations, Reincarnator 9527, you have earned the title of Warden. Mission ended, returning."

Watching the disappearing figure and ghost, Yao Ling, with a tight-lipped expression, lowered her gun.

"Damn! What does the newcomer want? He didn't attack us but interfered with our mission?"

Yao Ling, holding her head, massaged her temples in pain. "Who knows, but... we should consider how to deal with the police at the foot of the mountain. What bad luck, we still have one and a half days left."

While Yao Ling and Liu Ming were preparing to deal with the Japanese police at the foot of the mountain, Lin Yifan had already returned to the Infinite Prison with the four captured "criminals."

Although the capture times were different, Lin Yifan, the three fraudsters, and Little Sadako returned to the prison almost simultaneously.

As soon as his feet touched the ground, the three squinty-eyed fraudsters, still dazed, were pushed into the prison by Lin Yifan.

Boom!

The heavy cell door slammed shut, waking Liang Dong, who was nearby.

Liang Dong, with a blank expression, looked up and saw that he had three new cellmates. Lin Yifan stood beside a cute little girl.

"Hey! Bastard, do you know who I am?" Liang Dong lunged at the door, shouting at Lin Yifan.

Shrugging, Lin Yifan ignored him, not even looking at him. In the darkness, two figures approached.

One was a long-dressed figure, clearly the maid Sophia, and the other was somewhat deformed. Lin Yifan silently guessed the identity of the latter.

The deformed figure emerged from the darkness, with a lecherous smile, and Lin Yifan's eyes widened.

"Congratulations on completing the Warden's trial mission. It seems your abduction skills are quite strong, managing to abduct a delicious little girl ghost, hehehe."

"Damn it! Old man, you're the one who tricked me here!" ———— Second update at 4:30 PM, extra update for votes and favorites!
