Two men were clearly dead in the room.

One in black and one in white, their entire appearance was like a watermelon that had been burst open!

And what's most alarming is that neither of these corpses had heads!

If the killer is human, at present, there should be no one who can carry out such a horrific killing without using tools or alerting others!

"The good news is that the killings here are likely related to the perpetrators of the two previous disappearances, while the bad news is that the person we're looking for may not just be the owner of that snake skin."

Song Mengmeng bent down, reached into the corner where the bed met the bedside table, touched it, then turned and walked to Yan Di, spreading it out for him to see: "Look, what is this?!"

"Isn't this spider silk?!" Before Yan Di could speak, the sharp-eyed Huo Yuankai immediately recognized what the milky white, cotton-like object in her hand was and gave the answer almost without thinking.

"Jorōgumo?!" Upon seeing the spider silk and the two headless foreign men, the first thing that popped into Huda's mind was this terrifying yokai from the land of cherry blossoms, which she was quite familiar with.

"Probably!" Song Mengmeng nodded, took the wet wipe that Yan Di handed her, lowered her eyes and carefully wiped her fingers clean. Then, without much expression, she turned her head and looked at the crime scene in front of her again: "It seems that we need to speed things up, otherwise, this kind of scene will probably be repeated again and again."

The series of murders of foreign tourists has put immense pressure on Baiyue City. Due to the sensitive nature of the cases, Hu Yue led the special task force to Baiyue City as quickly as possible.

"How could such a big mess have happened?" As soon as Hu Yue saw Song Mengmeng, she didn't even bother to rest and started asking about everything that had happened.

At first, she thought that Song Mengmeng and the others had made too much noise and caused trouble, but after hearing Song Mengmeng's explanation, Hu Yue's face also turned ugly.

"Jorōgumo and Medusa! Why are these legendary monsters appearing so frequently in China lately?! And why did both of them choose to come to Baiyue City?!"

Hu Yue did not doubt Song Mengmeng's judgment. What she was thinking was whether there was a deeper conspiracy and scheme hidden behind this matter.

"I don't know, but I didn't find any Medusa's aura at the scene of that final massacre! Perhaps these two monsters never met, and it just so happened that they both appeared in Baiyue City?!"

Song Mengmeng neither knew nor wanted to think about the intricacies involved. What she cared about was whether her strength could be further enhanced if she eliminated the two evil spirits now.

She hadn't been so eager for strength before, but now, as she encounters more and more things in this world, she feels an increasing urgency to increase her strength!

Even if it were just to regain the power she had in the Heavenly Court before she transmigrated, that would be great!

With that kind of trouble, she only needs to unleash her divine sense, and in the blink of an eye, she will be able to catch and wipe out those two evil spirits!

"That possibility is unlikely." Hu Yue shook her head. After joining the special case team, she had dealt with these foreign monsters and demons before.

She knew very well that monsters, especially powerful monsters, had a very strong sense of territory!

It's absolutely impossible for two such powerful demons to gather in Baiyue City at once; since this situation has arisen, either the two demons know each other, or...

They'll have a fight sooner or later!

“Monsters have a sense of territory. If these two monsters didn’t know each other, the first thing they would do upon meeting would probably be to fight, rather than staying in Baiyue City peacefully for so long.”

Based on her past experience, Hu Yue analyzed in a low voice: "So our top priority now should be to find those two monsters as soon as possible!"

Otherwise, if this continues, more innocent people in Baiyue City will likely lose their lives!

Hu Yue has a network of contacts, making her exceptionally adept at investigating such matters.

Since she had handed the investigation over to Hu Yue, Song Mengmeng was too lazy to bother with it anymore. The first thing she did after returning to her room was to take out the reward that Hu Yue had given her after the Lin family incident.

That jar of demon pearls.

The little girl chewed away furiously, as if venting her anger. By the time the King of Hell entered, the jar of candy-like demon beads was already empty.

However, for the little girl, such a huge force was swallowed, but it was like a stone sinking into the sea, without causing the slightest ripple.

Not enough, far from enough!

Licking her lips, Song Mengmeng turned to look at Yan Di with a hint of grievance in her eyes: "It's too little, I'm not full!"

"The improvement of strength is a gradual process, and you can't rush it." Yan Di reached out and, as usual, put a purple candy in her mouth before gently comforting her, "It's okay, everything is just beginning. The world will become more and more lively, and you won't go hungry."

"Now that Jorogumo has shown up, will Shuten-dōji and the others come too?!"

Song Mengmeng still remembers the invitation that was stood up.

The promised appreciation event for the Heavenly Kusanagi Sword was inexplicably canceled. The other party gave a long, enthusiastic "Mmm-mah-sama!" during the notification, but it was all for naught!

If they've all stopped talking, what's the point of Smith & Marseille?!

Regarding this change in the plan, Song Mengmeng was not naive enough to think that Shuten-dōji and the others had a change of heart and abandoned their plan to revive Yamata no Orochi!

She felt that something must have gone wrong in their plan, forcing them to suspend their actions and choose to lie low for the time being.

This is nothing to be thankful for; on the contrary, it is merely a false calm before the storm.

“I didn’t sense their presence in Baiyue.” Yan Di didn’t interfere too much with Song Mengmeng’s thoughts and judgments. Although he was always by her side, most of the time he was like a transparent person, making it very easy for people to ignore his presence.

He strictly adhered to the promise he had made to Song Mengmeng—he would never interfere with any of her hunting activities unless there was danger!

“That’s true. Although Jorogumo is famous among the yokai in the Sakura Kingdom, she doesn’t seem to be at the level of a high-ranking yokai!” Song Mengmeng nodded thoughtfully. In terms of Jorogumo’s strength and status, she was not even as good as Huda, who was currently searching for clues somewhere!

After all, Hu Da is a household name in Japan, especially among Tamamo-no-Mae!
