Witch Containment Log

Chapter 89: Stopping the Injury of the Soul
Not long after the meeting ended, Zhang Su received a private message from Edith, asking to have a private chat with him.

Giving in to Edith meant disaster, but resisting her made Zhang Su feel painful.

"?" Lian Wu glanced at Zhang Su, feeling that he was falling into some kind of difficult decision.

Lian Wu had heard about Edith, and getting too close to her would definitely lead to big trouble.

Cuteness seemed to have tied Zhang Su with a thin thread that could not be cut off no matter what.

Lianwu took a step back, leaning against the goose-yellow curtains of the office.

She sincerely hoped that Zhang Su could be free from Edith's temptation or torture. It felt like watching Zhang Su walk into a ball of fire, but she was powerless to stop it...

Zhang Su accessed Edith's communication channel, and her appearance appeared on the screen again.

Edith had touched up her makeup, her lips were as red as blood, her nose was high, her facial features were three-dimensional, and her whole face was delicate and charming.

The smoky eye makeup highlights the depth of the eyes, and the bright yellow pupils are sharp and lively.

Especially when she stared at Zhang Su, she was so attractive that Zhang Su felt like he was falling in.

Clothing is also the finishing touch. She wears a plain white office shirt and meticulous black trousers, which look very serious when paired together.

But when I think of Edith, it brings out an abyss of beauty.It's like sealing the oldest sin in a cage, making people want to see the indulgence hidden under the dignified appearance.

How beautiful it is, Zhang Su will never forget it.

He even felt some nostalgia and satisfaction, which was always the case with Edith in his previous life, giving him infinite hope.

"I transferred the bonus to you." Edith's voice was soft and hoarse, with a foreign accent.

Zhang Su saw the transfer notice and hovered his finger on the screen. The number was huge. After tax, there was still 3700 million yen. This was the personal bonus that Edith applied for him.

"Thank you." Zhang Su couldn't help but say.

"You have done a great job and you deserve the reward." Edith smiled, her red lips raised like a hook embedded in Zhang Su's heart.

"But your words will make other supervisors feel ill-will towards me, which will not be conducive to the unity of the Witch Countermeasure Bureau." Zhang Su said.

"They are all jealous of you, and it makes them angry," Edith said softly.

"I will use this money to continue to build Anxinyuan and complete the work of containing witches." Zhang Su said.

He struggled to remain calm; Edith was dangerous, her sweet words lurking with malevolent purpose.

However, during the call, her voice seemed very gentle, exuding an inexplicable and sincere warmth.

If Zhang Su gets involved in trouble, Edith will help him get out of trouble. Just like the previous incident on the Wall of East Continent, once Edith intervenes, the matter will be solved much easier.

Maybe she can help with all the trouble.

"Go buy yourself something nice. You deserve this, you know?" Edith held her chin in one hand and blinked at Zhang Su. Her beauty had a soul-stirring effect.

Her words and deeds were programmed and orderly. Zhang Su was curious about what experiences shaped Edith's personality today.

Maybe she wants to do her duty to protect humans, but no matter what her motives are, Zhang Su cannot be a pawn in her plan. He has to rely on his own wisdom to complete this road.

"...Does the Director have any other arrangements?" Zhang Su asked.

"Soon, according to the charter, the senior supervisor will go to your An An Hospital in July to conduct a process verification and investigate all the violations in An An Hospital. I hope you can pass the inspection smoothly. After all, I think you are better than others. Excellent." Edith said sincerely.

"You've given me the award." Zhang Su felt embarrassed.

He had to apply the psychic protection course.The painful memories formed a cold black wall in his heart, but Edith would soon find an opportunity.

"No." Edith said softly, "Don't use psychic protection on me."

"How do you know?" Zhang Su asked.

"The eyes will change. You must be thinking about those torturous memories. Don't think about it. Look at me." Edith and Zhang Su looked at each other.

Edith is elusive. One second she is like an indifferent director, arranging the opening of the human theater, and the next second she is radiating warm smiles and appreciation, like a sincere girlfriend.

Emotional debt is worse than material debt. Zhang Su just wants to end the call as soon as possible, because he is afraid that he will sink.

"...Understood, then, the next step is to work hard to build Anxinyuan, hoping to successfully pass the acceptance standards." Zhang Su said.

"I have great hopes for you, and I will always believe that you can do these things. You will be safe, you will achieve success, you will break all disasters, save yourself, and everyone." Edith said softly.

Edith will help you.

She stopped talking and was still waiting for Zhang Su to hang up first.

It was as if if he didn't end the communication, Edith would stare at him through the screen forever.

Every time Zhang Su hesitated longer than before.

Lianwu suddenly reached out her hand and cut off the video signal for Zhang Su.

"?" Lianwu didn't understand why Zhang Su was so obsessed with Edith.

"I don't know." Zhang Su leaned back and closed his eyes. The chair creaked and he was holding on with difficulty.

Lianwu climbed onto Zhang Su's table, sat on it, pressed her red witch skirt with both hands, and stepped on Zhang Su with her little feet wrapped in cotton foot bags to show her dissatisfaction.

"...!" Lian Wu told Zhang Su a story.Lianwu's biological mother was named Ruihui. After giving birth to Lianwu, she became a monk in Ansin Temple and was responsible for guarding Yuehuaji as a witch. She has been dead for 20 years.

Among the countless skeletons around Yue Hua Ji is Lian Wu's biological mother. This is the mission of women in the An Yuan family.

Lian Wu may also become one of those skeletons in the future, completing the watch of An Yuan's family for this generation.

In any case, after Mizue's death, Ansuin Hideyuki married another bride, Masako Asami. She was a real firebrand and completely fascinated Hideyuki.

My father, who was originally trying his best to improve his life, gradually became dejected.

Renwu would rather stay alone than get to know her stepmother since she was a child. Asami Masako never wanted to see Renwu.

This is when Lianwu first developed the habit of not speaking. Lianwu's silence was like a deliberate obstacle to protect herself.

She was instinctively afraid of women like that.

And Edith was about to charm Zhang Su in front of her, just like her father was obsessed with the bride, both of which frightened Lian Wu.

Lianwu always had to pat her face to muster up the courage to speak, so after telling this story, her face turned red.

"I also want to try my best to avoid being caught by Edith." Zhang Su said helplessly.

But no way.

There was no Lianwu in his previous life, so part of Zhang Su's motivation for working came from Edith. He could be said to be very close to Edith.

During those four years, Edith helped Zhang Su immensely. She also acted as Zhang Su's mentor, boss, rival, best friend, and lover...

The memories with Edith are like a piece of paper that has been wetted, but not with tears.

"!" Lian Wu shook Zhang Su.

He has to defeat himself.

In Lian Wu's eyes, Zhang Su is a reliable person, but even he has his own weakness, and that is Edith.

She made up her mind to find a way to protect Zhang Su.

So she asked Zhang Su to lie down, and then began to perform psychological analysis on Zhang Su.

Lian Wu is rich in knowledge and has read so many books in vain.

She typed text on her mobile phone and then used the AI ​​reading function to ask Zhang Su questions, which was more convenient.

"What was your first feeling when you met Edith?"

"Impulsion...an irresistible impulse." Zhang Su said.

"What kind of impulse?"

"If I confess, Miss Lianwu will drive me away." Zhang Su said.

"Humph, you have betrayed yourself. But that feeling is only superficial. You have deeper psychological motivations that make you particularly fond of Edith. So tell me your second feeling."

"The second feeling is... very relaxed and safe, just like going home. My mind is empty, and there are no worries or frustrations that seemed huge before. It's as if Edith will arrange everything, and there is no need to be afraid of risks." Zhang Su recalled his feelings.

"!" Lianwu thought thoughtfully.

She didn't understand why Zhang Su fell in love with Edith so easily at first, but now Lian Wu has figured it out!
In front of everyone in An'an Hospital, and in front of the citizens and soldiers outside, Zhang Su must be strong, courageous, resourceful, and must be exhaustive and far-sighted.

Carrying so many expectations and responsibilities, Zhang Su has accumulated tremendous pressure unconsciously. He reported many meritorious deeds, but these meritorious deeds require energy to maintain, and there are a series of causes and consequences.

But in front of Edith, Zhang Su would feel protected.

He does not have to play a "brave" or "strong" image, he does not have any baggage, and all social pressure and external demands disappear.

The warmth from Edith penetrated deep into the bones, which was difficult for any man to resist.

In this case, it is only a matter of time before Zhang Su becomes Edith's tool. Maybe it doesn't matter to him, but he is terrible in Lianwu!
So what should Lianwu do?She was not as physically attractive as Edith, but she was smaller.

There is no other way, Lianwu must express her inner voice, for Zhang Su and for the future of Anxin Hospital.

Lianwu held Zhang Su's big hand between her soft little hands.

She closed her eyes, leaned forward, and touched Zhang Su's forehead.

Zhang Su took a deep breath.

His thoughts calmed down, and he felt that Lianwu was making contact from the soul level, and the two of them were connected spiritually.

Lianwu saw the black wall that Zhang Su used for spiritual protection, which was covered with blood-stained memories.

She observed carefully and couldn't help but be surprised. This was a strange memory, and it was particularly painful, enough to make her sympathize from the bottom of her heart.

The demon destroyed An'an Hospital, Yuehuaji broke through the seal and emerged from the ground, Katie was killed, and many witches she didn't know died tragically in the battle...

I don’t know where this memory came from, but Zhang Su lives with such painful memories!Inspired by it, Zhang Su can be as strong as stone.

Edith promised to help Zhang Su, but her presence was like poison, eroding Zhang Su's defenses.

This power left a gap in this black wall, and now Lianwu is here to fill this gap.
