Viewers had grown almost accustomed to the sensation that “Ghostly Guidance”
caused every time a neva episode aired, trending immediately upon release.
Everyone thought the serial killer from the first episode was a one-off shocker,
but this week's installment threw another curveball with a husband accused of
murdering his wife,
Online, fans half-jokingly called the “Ghostly Guidance” production team the
“Sherlock Holmes Squad” due to their knack for unearthing dark secrets.
The live stream was still rolling, and the chat rooms and social media feeds were
buzzing with
activity.
From the control room, Bagot couldn't help but marvel at the skyrocketing viewer
numbers and online buzz that far exceeded their wildest expectations.
“This turnout is too good; we can't cut the broadcast early,” he mused.
Back on the screen, the guests who had completed their tasks seemed much
more relaxed than before. Candace’s team had abandoned their initial plan to go
it alone and joined forces with Winnie's group, forming a lively procession.
Winnie stood at the edge of some dense foliage, holding freshly picked herbs.
She approached the guests, handing them sprigs of mint and wormwood, saying.
“These leaves can keep the mosquitoes away when you're outdoors.”
Then, pulling out a piece of dry bark, she added. “This is sycamore bark. If you
can't find any repellent plants, this will do in a pinch. Light it up, let it smoke — it's
not too pungent and keeps the bugs away.”
Just half an hour earlier, they were all condemning a scumbag, and now here
they were, as carefree as if they were on holiday, volunteering outdoor survival
tips.
Well, summer in the woods did mean lots of mosquitoes, and while Winnie had
her own repellent charms, it wouldn't do to completely ignore the comfort of the
others.
As she mentioned fire, Winnie deliberately faced the camera to add, “But
remember, when you're in the wilderness, try to avoid making fires, and if you do,
extinguish them promptly. Especially in dry weather like this, it's all too easy to
start a wildfire.”
The audience hadn't expected a paranormal show to turn into a public service
announcement, but they loved watching all the same.
“Man, Winnie knows so much, and to think she’s only eighteen — the youngest
guest of them all'*
“I almost forgot she just graduated high school! She's got such a commanding
presence: you could tell me she’s nine feet tall and I'd believe it!"
The comments were a mix of amusement and admiration. The viewers were
fascinated with

Winnie's breadth of knowledge and urged her to share more, perhaps some
esoteric trivia.
Bagot caught sight of a particular comment and relayed the suggestion to Ned,
the host, who seized the opportunity and approached Winnie with a smile, “Hey
Winnie, you seem to have a good grip on these things. Since we're not in a rush,
how about you share some more of your wisdom with the audience? Maybe
some mystic tidbits?”
The guests and viewers liked the idea, curious about the subject despite their
skepticism.
Following a recent episode where Mervin demonstrated his charm—drawing skills,
the internet had been abuzz with viewers trying to replicate the talisman for fun.
Initially, “Ghostly Guidance” was meant to educate the audience on mystical
practices, so when Ned pitched the idea, Winnie simply nodded and led the
cameraman to another bush, pointing
out a plant.
“Mervin should recognize this one,” she said, deftly passing the spotlight to him.
“What's that?” Candace couldn't contain her curiosity.
Winnie smiled but her voice remained serene, “This is Myrrh.”
The guests and viewers alike were puzzled, and many immediately searched
online for an explanation, resulting in a flurry of revelation and laughter.
“So, our Mervin's name is actually related to Myrrh?"
“No wonder I thought the name sounded familiar — isn’t that a resin?”

The name Mervin, given by the Caretaker of Breeze Monastery, was a wish for
him to learn to sacrifice himself to help others.
As Winnie spoke, she looked towards Mervin, who nodded in acknowledgment,
his face tinged with a rare embarrassment.

And from that day forth, the fans of Mervin, thanks to Winnie's influence, were
lovingly dubbed by the community as Myrrh.
