No one expected that they didn't encounter any trouble along the way, but were stopped when entering Gray Whale Harbor.

"There's something wrong with the file? How is that possible?"

Katie was stunned when she heard the guard's answer. She held the certificate in her hand and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"But, but my goods were clearly delivered through formal channels. Look, there's a stamp on it..."

"I'm sorry, we need to inspect the goods with this document. Only after the inspection can we let you enter the city."

"So how long will it take?"

"Maybe a few days, I can't tell."

“How could this be…!!”

Standing nearby and listening to the conversation between Katie and the guard, Fang Zheng discovered that this young lady's social skills were really negative. She was always trembling when talking to others, as if others were going to bully her. Not only did she not have the domineering attitude of a young lady, she couldn't even speak in an organized manner.

In fact, when she was doing missions with Fang Zheng and others before, she seldom expressed her opinions. If it weren't for her stealth skills that were comparable to the level of invisibility, Fang Zheng probably wouldn't have been too impressed by her.

"Kuang San, I leave it to you."

Fang Zheng took a step back and whispered something in Kuang San's ear, and Kuang San smiled and nodded. Then she walked forward and said a few words to the guard, who then nodded and let them into the city easily.

Fang Zheng was not surprised at all. Kuang San now had two angels, Keke Di and Pojun Geji. As long as she used the latter to say a few words, few people would be able to resist Pojun Geji's control.

However...the troubles along the way were much more than Fang Zheng had expected.

After entering the city, the first thing they had to do was transport the goods to the dock. However, when they arrived at the dock, they were told that there was no space to unload the goods. It was only because of Kuang San's intervention that they were allowed into the cargo yard. Then they were told that there were no staff. Fortunately, Fang Zheng, Kuang San and Hu Tao were both physically strong, so they acted as unloading workers.

Then when we went to the border inspection department, we were asked to undergo strict identity verification and inspection. Even when we got on the ship, the crew said that some passengers had arrived first and hoped that they would change to the next ship...

If it weren't for Kuang San's Pojun singer, Fang Zheng felt that he and his companions would really be trapped in this damn place.

Katie was even more exhausted. There had been many accidents along the way, so she was trembling with fear when she got on the ship. She didn't breathe a sigh of relief until the ship left the dock. She went to the warehouse to check the cargo again, then she dragged her exhausted body to say goodbye to Fang Zheng and others and went back to her cabin to rest.

"This child is so unlucky."

Looking at Katie's back, Kurumi couldn't help but sigh. In fact, what Katie didn't know was that when the ship left the dock, Fang Zheng found that their goods were still on the dock and had not been transported to the ship. Fortunately, with the help of Kurumi, they were able to transport the goods to the warehouse smoothly.

It can be said that if they hadn't been there along the way, Katie would have been helpless.

“It’s like I’m cursed.”

Even Kuang San couldn't help but sigh, Katie's bad luck was beyond her expectations. However, Fang Zheng didn't respond, instead, she narrowed her eyes and stared at the ocean in the distance. Then, Fang Zheng sneaked up to Kuang San.

"Kyousan, I need you to do me a favor."

"What's up?"

"I want you to bring Katie's personal belongings or hair. Handkerchiefs, makeup, or clothes, hair. In short, it's best to carry something close to her."

"What do you want these for?"

"You just said it, curse."

Fang Zheng glanced at the cabin not far away, then looked away.

"I suspect Katie may really be cursed."

As a prophecy mage, Fang Zheng certainly knew that there were many spells that could be used to curse others. Katie was just an ordinary young lady. Apart from her superb stealth skills, she had nothing special about her. This meant that her resistance to curses would not be much different from that of ordinary people.

Of course, although we cannot ignore Katie's own bad luck, Fang Zheng thought carefully about the last time they set out on a mission together, and this young lady did not show such an unlucky side.

This time, her unlucky level was obviously higher than that of an average person. It could be said that if Fang Zheng and the others had not been strong enough to crush her all the way, Katie might have been unable to move forward.

This is obviously abnormal.

Since it is abnormal, the possibility of being cursed by someone naturally increases greatly.

Kuang San acted quickly. In less than half an hour, she returned to Fang Zheng quietly with a few strands of hair.

"The little girl has fallen asleep. She cried a lot before and looks very stressed."

Handing the hair to Fang Zheng, Kuang San also shook her head and sighed. If it were on Earth, Katie's age would be about the same as Black Cat Asuna when she first entered the game world, but she has already gone out alone to escort the goods.

"Her situation is indeed somewhat unusual."

Fang Zheng also nodded and took the hair.

"I'm going back to the cabin first. You're responsible for holding Walnut."

"Don't worry."

Hearing Fang Zheng's instructions, Kuang San chuckled.

"Hu Tao and I went fishing, and she's waiting to eat the fish soup you made."

After saying this, Kuang San turned around and left with a smile, while Fang Zheng waited until there was no one around before returning to their cabin. He then performed a "door-sealing technique" to seal the cabin door. Then, accompanied by a flash of red light, Fang Zheng resumed his original masculine posture the next moment.

"Huh...I feel more comfortable this way."

Fang Zheng couldn't help but sigh as he moved his neck, arms and legs. The red ponytail form was like playing a female character in an online game to Fang Zheng, and he didn't care much about it. But strictly speaking, it did have an impact. After all, the red ponytail form was much shorter than Fang Zheng himself, and it was inconvenient for him to see things. After a long time, he always felt...

Well, Fang Zheng just wanted to know how Conan adapted to this height difference when he turned back into Shinichi.

But for now, let’s look at the problem at hand.

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng placed the hair in his hand on the table, then raised his hands. Soon, magic power condensed between his ten fingers, and the mist of fate gradually emerged and then dissipated. The hair in front of him was connected to the threads of fate, which quickly stretched out to the surroundings.

They lead to the past, present and future.

Together with their owners, they share life and death.

Fang Zheng reached out, gently placed his fingers on one of the fragile threads, and closed his eyes.

A sense of obscurity came over me, mixed with some unpleasant smell, like the smell of corruption, and also like...

"Huh?"

Fang Zheng opened his eyes, and the breath he had sensed before instantly dissipated. However, Fang Zheng did not stop. He frowned, carefully picked up Katie's hair, put it under his nose and smelled it.

Mixed with the girl's unique body fragrance was an extremely strange and dark aura.

Fang Zheng's guess was correct, Katie was indeed cursed.

It's just that the source of the curse is somewhat unexpected.

If there was nothing wrong with his spell, then Katie had been cursed before she was born.
