Becoming a White-Haired Witch in a World Full of Anomalies
Chapter 50 : Origins
"It's you, isn't it, Lin Bai!"
Looking at Bai Ling who seemed to want to escape the scene, Lin Bai's mother grabbed her ear.
"Ow ow ow."
"Son, I can understand you having little quirks, but you can't get gender reassignment surgery. Even your height changed?" Lin Yang asked with feigned confusion.
"Strange, why would the seal be released?" Bai Menglan observed Bai Ling, pulling apart her arms to examine under her armpits, continuously checking her body.
"Mom, stop touching randomly!" Bai Ling called out somewhat shyly.
"Child, Mom knows you have many questions now. I can only tell you that back then, because of the Blood Witch incident, your father and I along with many, many others controlled her, but we couldn't kill her at all. We could only seal her in your body."
"If you want to ask why the seal was placed in your body and not someone else's."
"That's because you're the only one who can bear and seal an anomaly within your body."
Lin Yang sighed beside them.
"So having children means raising the son you gave birth to as a daughter."
Bai Menglan grabbed Lin Yang's ear and glared at him fiercely.
"Because I'm a Rain Woman, you're the offspring of your father and me, already in a half-human, half-anomaly state, so you could seal an anomaly in your body."
"Rain Woman?" Bai Ling asked in confusion.
"A monster from legend that brings misfortune and disaster, often appearing with heavy rain. But I'm just an ordinary anomaly." Bai Menglan patted Bai Ling's head.
"Is that so?" Bai Ling was shocked about her origins.
"Originally this seal would last hundreds of years. The Blood Witch would gradually lose power as you aged."
"I didn't expect the seal would be released. Do you feel any discomfort or other symptoms?"
"Sometimes I hear whispers and get headaches."
"First stage..." Bai Menglan nodded and comforted her.
"Don't worry, child. Just live normally now. I'll find a way."
"Speaking of which, how are you here?"
"Chi Xiaoyu brought me in."
Bai Ling explained the whole situation and her current condition of transforming randomly.
"Pfft!" Bai Menglan couldn't help laughing.
"I originally thought you had completely feminized, but I didn't expect you could still change back. If you were discovered, it would indeed be quite embarrassing."
"Son, you can find a girlfriend and a boyfriend, quickly give me a grandchild, whether you give birth or your girlfriend gives birth!"
"Shut up," Bai Menglan kicked Lin Yang.
"I'll send you away from here. Let's go."
Bai Menglan took Bai Ling's hand. The two gradually faded. At this moment, the entire forest was hit by torrential rain accompanied by rumbling thunder.
The two appeared outside the forest not far away. Bai Menglan patted Bai Ling's head, then hugged her.
"Child, being a girl must be quite unfamiliar. When you encounter problems you can't solve, you can ask your sister. Your father and I are quite busy lately."
After speaking, she disappeared, thoughtfully making the rain curtain disappear from Bai Ling's departure path, demonstrating what localized rainfall meant.
"What's unfamiliar? I can't possibly get periods, right?"
Looking at the road ahead and the torrential rain everywhere else, along with the swaying trees and thunder gathering in the sky.
"Ordinary anomaly?"

Inside the base
"How about it? This time I lost my status as Incompleteness proxy."
"I know, I know." Director Su looked helplessly at the two people demanding compensation.
"Your Investigation Bureau only sent one person? What was everyone else doing, letting that evil god escape?"
"Anomaly incidents are happening all over the country, becoming more frequent lately. Where do we get the manpower?"
"Regarding your compensation, I've already let your son pick a contracted anomaly with an upper limit of Anomaly King level."
"Upper limit Anomaly King level? What level is it now?"
"C-grade."
"Are you kidding me? C-grade? By the time she reaches Anomaly King level, it'll be who knows when."
"Then I promise to help you three times. This should be enough, right?"
Lin Yang nodded.
"That's more like it."
"Did you really lose your Incompleteness proxy status?" The director asked with some regret.
"No." The man took out another armless Venus replica statue.
"Damn."
"Oh right, there's also 100,000 yuan for that old Taoist's talisman. Reimburse that."
"Damn."

At a certain cult stronghold
"Archbishop, are you alright?"
The man's face was half-covered with black mist. In his painful expression mixed with the man's strength, he held a cup of golden potion.
"I'm fine."
"The evil god seems unwilling to cooperate. Maybe we should retreat? The entire Investigation Bureau is hunting us. Carrying this uncooperative evil god..."
"If this evil god won't work, we'll create another evil god." The man viciously crushed the cup in his hand.
"I have no way back. I can only move forward until death!"

"You mean Lin Bai, such a big person, just vanished into thin air?"
"How would I know? This training room has no exit. The only way he could leave is through this weapon transport lift, but how could he fit with his size?"
"Wait..." Chi Xiaoyu seemed to think of something.
【Lin Bai couldn't fit, but that doesn't mean Bai Ling couldn't】
So Chi Xiaoyu took out her phone, clicked on Lin Bai's avatar and typed a line.
【You are Bai Ling, right?】
Just then, Bai Menglan walked over and patted Chi Xiaoyu's head.
"What is little Yu doing?"
"Eh? Auntie, you're back from your business trip?"
"Mm mm, finally finished after being busy so long."
"Did you see Lin Bai?"
"You really are something, forgetting him in there. I'm the one who let him out."
"I-is that so?"
Chi Xiaoyu looked at the unsent message and quietly deleted it.
【Strange, doesn't he transform every day?】
Late night
Chi Xiaoyu pushed open the door, wanting to see if Bai Ling was home. The house was pitch black. A girl was playing games on her phone using the screen light, with a cup of red liquid beside her.
"Jungler, can you even play?"
"Eh? Why is it Blood Princess?"
Blood Princess turned to look at Chi Xiaoyu.
"Team Leader Chi, good evening."
"Mm, where's Lin Bai?"
"Don't know. Haven't come back all day."
【Fine, Lin Bai's house either has cat girl lolis or white-haired red-eyed girls】
"What do you mean you like it when I curse at you more? Are you a pervert?"

At this time, Bai Ling was flying home. She finally remembered that the cats she left at her sister's house probably didn't eat cat food, and her sister would probably try to feed the cats cat food...
"They couldn't have been raised to death, could they?"
My cats, I'm coming to save you.
