"Commission?"

Wuchou took the invitation sent by Alice and wondered what the other party was thinking.

"Yes, it's a message from an acquaintance. He hopes that I will go to their school to deal with knowledge about puppet studies. Of course, I don't want to go, so I hope you can go for me."

"Ah, I'm going to help someone?"

Alice nodded.

"Of course, after all, the acquaintances over there helped me a lot when I was learning puppetry, but for some reasons, I hope you can go there to deal with it. Naturally, I won't treat you badly."

Wuchou originally wanted to refuse, but Alice suddenly mentioned something that interrupted Wuchou's thoughts.

"Speaking of which, there seems to be some problems at that school recently. I heard that a student fell into a coma and only recently woke up."

It seems that we should go and see if it is them.

"Okay, I accept this invitation."

Because of Alice's words, Wuyou had no choice but to go to a high school in Morio Town.

However, Wuchou thought for a long time that leaving Zhenhong alone in the store might be problematic, so Wuchou kept Zhenhong with him, and Wuchou even saw Alice's regretful expression.

You see, it does still have a purpose.

Wuchou left with Zhenhong, leaving Alice helpless and furious in the store.

"This is it."

Wuchou came outside a certain high school. Before he could think about where to go to find a contact, he didn't expect that someone would come to greet him soon.

"You are the one Miss Alice invited. Please give me some advice and come with me."

Wuyou followed the guide into the campus and was surprised to see Josuke who had just taken a break after class.

"Higashiji Jousuke, I didn't expect to meet you here."

"Mr. Store Manager, why are you here?"

Wuchou didn't say anything, but silently followed the guide away.

"I have an ominous premonition."

Wuchou finally knew the purpose of coming here based on the principal's introduction.

The principal who greeted Wuyou was exactly what he expected, a plump middle-aged man.

"This is our purpose."

The principal took out a doll from a box.

"This is!"

A wooden doll, no, it should be said to be a cursed doll, with silver needles and incomprehensible symbols tattooed on it.

"Although I know this may just be a fuss, but recently, students at school always receive these dolls in their drawers, and not only students, but even teachers receive a few."

The principal said, slowly sitting down, his face full of melancholy.

"Also, I know that some students had an accident and someone was injured, but I don't know what the reason was, so I hope that Miss Alice is a professional puppet maker, and I know that she is more than just her appearance, so

I want to ask you for a favor."

"As for the reward, I know you want this."

After the principal finished speaking, he took out a book with a red cover.

"I don't know when this was circulated. The book about the Rose Maiden. I found it at Miss Alice's request. Help us. This skill is yours."

Even if he didn't have this book, Wuchou would still go to help, and Wuchou also wanted to ask about the comatose student.

"Oh, you're talking about that."

After hearing this, the principal shook his head helplessly.

"It's such a headache. I don't know why those students suddenly fell into a coma. Fortunately, they all returned to normal except for one person."

Wuchou accepted the address he got from the principal, and after handling the incident, he went to visit the comatose students.

"Wuchou, what are you thinking about?"

Zhenhong chatted with Wuyou through conduction. After all, this was considered a supernatural event.

"A stand-in? But a stand-in that ordinary people can see, and the attack range is too large. The whole school is there."

"Maybe, it's just a prank."

Wuyou thought for a moment and shook his head.

"It's not just a prank that something happens to a student, and why there is also a teacher as the target, it proves that it's not as simple as a prank. There must be some meaning."

Wuchou first collects information about the person who received the doll, maybe he can find some useful information.

"Zhen Hong, is there anything special about these dolls?"

Zhenhong looked at it carefully and shook his head helplessly.

"It's just a simple doll, nothing special, just."

"only?"

"I always feel like there's something wrong with this doll."

After Wuchou collected everyone's information, he discovered that even Josuke had received this doll, but Josuke simply dealt with it.

"There are men and women, nothing special."

Except for one thing.

"Their addresses seem to have something in common."

All students and teachers who have received dolls will pass by Wuchou's doll store on their way home or to work.

"So that's why you asked me to handle this matter? After all, I might be the so-called mastermind. I should say I'm suspicious."

"No, it's not."

Zhenhong thought of another possibility.

"They are not targets."

After Zhenhong finished speaking, Wuchou felt the cursed doll on his body begin to shake.

"They are just delivery people, the real target is us!"

The doll Wuchou was carrying suddenly exploded. Wuchou had no defense at all and was knocked unconscious by the huge impact.

"No worries!"

Zhenhong hurriedly ran over to check Wuchou's injuries, but other cursed dolls flying around grabbed Zhenhong directly.

"Power, why can't I use it?"

Zhenhong was unable to use magic power, as if the connection between the two of them was blocked by something.

"Huh, after all, I have been preparing for a long time."

From the haystack on the side, a man with two dark circles under his eyes and a gloomy face walked out.

"Sure enough, that person is right, there really are moving dolls."

Before Zhenhong asked who gave him the news, the man directly stuffed Zhenhong into the prepared bag.

"Hehehe, that's great. Such a precious collection should be preserved well."

The Yin Shen man looked at Wuchou, who was still dizzy, and walked over to touch up his feet.

"Hmph, you actually have such a precious collection and flaunt it everywhere. You deserve it. I won't kill you this time. You are lucky."

The man saw no one around and left immediately.

Not long after the man left, another small figure approached Wuchou, who was still unconscious. Looking at Wuchou's appearance, the black shadow trembled.

"Didn't we agree? Don't hurt him. Why don't you disobey him? You hateful guy, go back and take care of him slowly."

"But at least this tool is still very useful. At least I finally got rid of that annoying guy."

The dark shadow caressed Wuyou's face, a familiar feeling.

"Soon, I'll be back after I eliminate that nasty True Red."

I just didn't expect that the uninvited guest would arrive soon.

"There was an explosion over there, what happened?"

"Tsk, someone is here so soon."

Black Shadow had no choice but to give up his purpose and turn around and leave.

"Mr. Store Manager, what's wrong with you?"

Josuke rushed over and saw Wuyou fainting on the ground, so he used a substitute to help Wuyou recover.
