I can rewind time to prevent death

Chapter 326: Chapter 276 Ugly Girl (Part 2) (4000 words)_2

Mengmeng wasn’t struggling anymore, and her arms were also held tight by Second Aunt Wang, so she couldn’t pull her own hair anymore; she just rested her head on her mother’s shoulder, head tilting to the side, which allowed her to reach Second Aunt Wang’s hair and bite it off, mouthful by mouthful, then quietly swallowing it without a sound.

…

Across the street, the male homeowner returned to find the female homeowner feeding their daughter He.@@novelbin@@

He looked about three or four years old, chubby and adorable. The mother scooped some steamed egg with rice onto a spoon and brought it to her open mouth, smiling and saying, “He, be good, eat slowly…”

“What’s happening outside?”

As soon as the husband returned, the wife looked up and casually asked.

“Mengmeng is missing, her mother is looking for her,” the husband replied.

“Oh?” The wife expressed surprise, “Didn’t that child follow her dad to the ‘Ugly Girl’ building?”

The husband was taken aback, shook his head, and said, “Impossible, it’s so dark outside, how can a little kid dare to go that far. Hey, hey, He, what are you doing…”

The wife was surprised; she was sitting low, looking up to talk to her husband, but when she heard his reminder, she immediately looked down and saw He beside her, leaning over and biting her own hair.

The wife’s long hair had been permed into beautiful waves just a few days ago. Now, He managed to get a good bite of the ends of her hair.

The next second, the wife let out a piercing scream, feeling a sharp pain on her scalp as He tilted her head and yanked a strand of her hair out with her teeth.

After biting off the hair, He didn’t spit it out, but instead stuffed it into her mouth with both hands and began to chew vigorously.

“He, what are you doing?”

The husband took swift steps forward, crouched down, grabbed her small cheeks, and reached into her mouth to retrieve it.

Crack!

The sound of breaking bone echoed instantly; the husband cried out in pain, pulling his finger out to find only half of his index finger left—the other half still in He’s mouth.

A trickle of blood ran down He’s mouth as she turned her head and bit again at the wife’s curly waves.

At that very moment, in every household in Wang Family Bay with daughters under 16, a strangeness emerged.

Wang Tao ran swiftly, first to his Second Uncle Wang’s house, and upon pushing open the living room door, he saw Second Aunt Wang pinned down on the sofa, still struggling fiercely.

He rushed over and grabbed Mengmeng by the collar, lifting her straight up.

Mengmeng’s mouth was full of hair, still swallowing it, but at this moment, her eyes rolled back till only the whites were visible, in a state as though she was about to suffocate yet still desperately swallowing.

“Quick, quick, get it out!” Second Aunt Wang screamed frantically.

She could see her daughter was about to suffocate; no matter what, the hair had to be removed from her mouth first.

Wang Tao, without a word, reached for the hair sticking out of Mengmeng’s mouth and pulled hard, quickly extracting a large bunch of hair from both Second Aunt Wang and Mengmeng herself.

Immediately Mengmeng began coughing violently, retching involuntarily with tears and snot running down, her entire face turning bright red.

Her mouth was wide open, which looked terrifying.

“There’s still hair inside!” Second Aunt Wang cried out, terrified.

Wang Tao reached into Mengmeng’s mouth, quickly tugged at some hair strands, and pulled out another small clump.

Mengmeng slumped to the side, falling onto the sofa, motionless.

Screams from the residents across the street pierced the air, along with subdued crying.

“Does the family across have a daughter too?” Wang Tao asked, turning his head to Second Aunt Wang.

All Second Aunt Wang could do was nod, unable to speak.

“Second Uncle and the others are at the back, they’ll be here right away.”

After dropping these words, Wang Tao bolted out the living room door and ran toward the house across the street.

When Yan Junze and Second Uncle Wang arrived, Mengmeng was still unconscious, curled up into a ball like a snail, her body trembling slightly. Second Aunt Wang kept calling her, but there was no response.

Second Uncle Wang’s heart clenched as he asked Second Aunt Wang, “What happened? How did this suddenly occur?”

Second Aunt Wang turned her head to look at him, her expression terrified, helpless, and flustered. It wasn’t until she saw Yan Junze that she spoke, “Mengmeng suddenly started eating her own hair. I tried to stop her, but then she began gnawing on my hair…”

As she spoke, she pointed to the damp clump of hair on the ground, her fingers quivering.

Second Uncle Wang went pale, turning helplessly towards Yan Junze.

Yan Junze watched the scene, not yet having the chance to speak when the living room door was suddenly pushed open and Wang Tao came in, gasping for breath.

Upon seeing Yan Junze return, he pointed breathlessly at the house across the way, “Over there, that family has a daughter too, and she’s eating hair. Her mother… at least one-fifth of her hair has been pulled out. And… she even bit off her father’s finger.”

Yan Junze inhaled sharply.

Second Uncle Wang and Second Aunt Wang were even more terrified, so scared they couldn’t speak a word.

According to Yan Junze’s speculation, after entering the small detached house where the Ugly Girl had committed suicide, he indeed triggered a certain aspect of the Ugly Girl Strange Creature, causing her power to start gathering and increasing rapidly in a short period, insanely jumping from the “Anxiety-Inducing” level to a “Terrified” state in just a few moments.

Now it seemed that every time he entered that detached house, it would inevitably trigger an elevation in the Ugly Girl’s power.

And her power increased simply by using all the girls in Wang Family Bay to consume hair, boosting the Ugly Girl’s strength rapidly in a short time.

Yan Junze now somewhat understood that the Ugly Girl had not completely controlled these girls; this was not Spirit-Splitting.

If it had been Spirit-Splitting, these girls would definitely have been under its influence for over 48 hours, which meant there was no saving them.

Growing a lot of hair to cover her own cheeks was an obsession of the Ugly Girl, so she used the bizarre method of other girls consuming hair to sustain this obsession.

Yan Junze did not know how she did it, but he was now very clear that the Ugly Girl Strange Creature’s power was definitely not that of a Wandering Spirit but rather firmly at the level of a Sculpting Spirit.

Of course, she should not have reached the level of an Ethereal Spirit.

The method she used to become a Sculpting Spirit was to have these girls provide her with a large amount of hair.

The scene before him, combined with Wang Tao’s return and the news of what happened in the house across, had confirmed Yan Junze’s suspicion, and now, the result was something he did not wish to see.

Even before the exorcism had started, their side had already paid a heavy price, something Yan Junze could not allow.

He needed to come up with a comprehensive strategy that would allow him to enter the Ugly Girl’s detached house and also prevent the controlled girls from consuming hair.

After a brief moment of thought, Yan Junze enacted a Rewind.

This time he was very thorough with his Rewind.

Before him, the scene blurred, and standing beside him was Wang Tao, not far from the trio of Second Uncle Wang, Second Aunt Wang, and Mengmeng.

He chose to Rewind to just as they had arrived at Wang Tao’s second uncle’s doorstep.

He could now rewind time up to almost 30 hours, and for the moment, it seemed like enough time for Yan Junze to figure things out.

Wang Tao introduced Yan Junze to Second Uncle Wang and his wife, who both seemed very warm and welcoming, while Mengmeng blinked with curiosity, staring at Yan Junze.

Second Uncle Wang said, “Exorcist, let’s eat first, the food is all ready.”

At that moment, the sky was beginning to darken.

Yan Junze nodded, “Sure, we can eat and, at the same time, ask Second Uncle to notify some other people.”

“Which people?” Second Uncle Wang seemed puzzled.

“All the families in Wang Family Bay with daughters under the age of 16,” Yan Junze said. “Ask them to bring their daughters here, and let’s gather at this spot. We can’t miss a single family.”

Wang Tao and Second Uncle Wang and his wife were all stunned, not understanding what Yan Junze was getting at.

“Then find some rope, the sturdy kind, and bring me a sharp pair of scissors,” Yan Junze continued.
