After tidying up, after the logistics personnel arrived and took control of the entire villa, the three of Chu Kuang brought Yuan Buwei to the Special Incident Investigation Bureau of Tianshui City.
After all, if something like this happened, it must be recorded in the Bureau of Special Affairs.
The Special Affairs Bureau is in the outskirts, and it is said that several nearby hills have been requisitioned. It was announced that a low-key rich man bought the nearby land and wanted to build a private estate. This rich man is naturally also a peripheral member of the Special Affairs Bureau.
The vehicle stopped outside the valley, and the four got out of the car.
The sky is dim, and the undulating curves are drawn by the continuous distant mountains. Looking in from the mouth of the valley, there are tall buildings rising from the ground.
It's hard to describe that? What is the style? It looks like a high-tech building, but some details have a classic flavor. The combination of these two very different styles should have been extremely discordant, but it gave Yuan Weiwei a natural feeling.
Several people entered the valley together, and stood in the open space in front of several buildings. Chu Kuang turned around and looked at Yuan Buwei, and said with a smile, "Welcome to the Tianshui City Special Affairs Bureau."
He smiled very brightly, showing a mouthful of white teeth.
An Miaomiao and Bai Chi next to him also laughed
Why? Glanced at them, and asked casually, "Did I pass the test?"
Bai Chi was taken aback, almost jumped up? He stared and said: "You know this? You must have heard of it before? The Special Affairs Bureau, right? I'm afraid you were not cheating on me before?"
"Then? Not at all, I guessed."
"According to what you said, the Secret Affairs Bureau has housed a lot of sealed items here, which should be more important than military bases. Why? Maybe outsiders are allowed in and out casually? Don't say that you are just three ordinary members, no matter how important your status is." Gao also can't do it, right?" In Bai Chi's ghost-like eyes, Yuan didn't do it? Said calmly.
"The result? You just led me in like this? No one else came to stop me? That? It means that there is probably some kind of method that can silently distinguish between the enemy and us, or a special barrier that traps the enemy. That's it. Just now, your attitude towards me has obviously changed, I must have passed the test, right?"
Bai Chi couldn't help giving a thumbs up: "666! Your observation skills are too strong, and it's too modest to say that you are guessing. It would be a waste not to be an investigator."
"You're right!" The three led Yuan Buwei into one of the buildings, while An Miaomiao introduced him, "There are three layers of barriers in the Bureau of Special Affairs. The outermost layer It is a second-level special sealed item, known as the "Faction Map". "
In the lobby on the first floor, an architectural model table, which is somewhat similar to a real estate sales center, is placed in the center. A few people walked there, An Miaomiao pointed out: "Look."
When you get closer, you will find that the map of the entire valley happens to be displayed on the desktop. It is not a physical model, but a three-dimensional stereoscopic projection. In this projection, dense green dots are everywhere.
"The real "Faction Map" is at the headquarters of the Secret Affairs Bureau in the Imperial Capital? The branches in other provinces and cities? What they have is only the sub-map projection of the "Faction Map"... At present, the scope of the sub-map projection covers the entire Secret Affairs Bureau. When someone enters the range of the Special Affairs Bureau, the effect of "Faction Map" will be triggered. You should have heard of the red names, yellow names, and green names in the game, right? "
An Miaomiao's voice sounded from the side.
"If you are malicious, not only will a red dot be displayed on the projection here, but the first time you enter the valley, a red name will be displayed above your head. Don't mind, each of our investigators will return to the Special Affairs Bureau, They will all pass a test of the camp map to ensure that the mental state is normal and has not been affected by other factors."
Seeing the original and not doing it? Thoughtful, An Miaomiao said: "This is only the first layer of enchantment. You can't enter the scope of the other two layers of enchantment now, so I won't talk about it for now."
Why? There was silence for three seconds.
"… very funny."
This world is simply the most interesting world I have seen so far, at least much more interesting than the Luofu world. The arc of his mouth became wider and wider.
"Now... I'm kind of looking forward to being an investigator."
Chu Kuang shook his head and didn't take it seriously: "Every newcomer thinks like you. When you really become an investigator, you will know that many things are not so...interesting."
There was a bit of the tolerance of the elders in his eyes, and there was a faint hint of helplessness and sadness in his eyes.
"...Compared to weirdness and sealed items, we humans are too small after all."
·
After all, it is only the most common investigator quota. With the guarantee of Chu Kuang and three people, and passed the camp map test, as long as there is no previous illegal or criminal record, he only needs to pass the last test.
- That? The spiritual intuition test.
On the way to the test, An Miaomiao was still in charge of explaining: "Spiritual intuition is the most basic talent requirement to become an investigator, just like the spiritual root is needed in the novels of cultivating immortals, and the root bone is read in fantasy novels. The so-called spiritual intuition is the right Perception of unusual things."
"People with low spiritual sense, even if the abnormal things are right in front of them, they can't find it. They may be affected one day; but people with high spiritual sense can feel something wrong at a glance. However, if the spiritual sense is too high ? High, but the mental resistance is not strong enough, and it is very likely to lose control the first time it comes into contact with abnormal things."
"Take the flame of hatred as an example. People with too low spiritual awareness will not be able to detect anything wrong at all, and may be tricked unknowingly after a long time; but if the spiritual sense is too high, they may be tricked just by looking at it. Lit directly."
In the end, she concluded: "So, the investigator's spiritual intuition should be kept within a range of not too high or too low; or? You must have a strong mental resistance. Since you can come out of the paradox safely? Not to mention spiritual perception, at least the mental resistance is very high."
Testing spiritual intuition is also very simple. Several people directly brought Yuan Buwei to a room on the first floor. After explaining their intentions, the young woman who received them opened a picture folder and pushed an oil painting in front of Yuan Buwei.
"Looking at this painting, what? When did you feel dizzy? Don't look at it." She reminded, "After reading it, remember? Tell me, how many eyes did you find in the painting?"
So far, Yuan Wuwei has always treated everything he comes into contact with with a new and curious mood. Hearing what the other party said, he nodded seriously and made a cute gesture: "OK."
To be honest, this is a very abstract oil painting, with all kinds of messy colors, weird swirls, and strange images mixed together, ordinary people will feel dizzy and vomiting just by looking at it.
But it wasn't because he looked at it at a glance, but he just felt that all the colors and lines were recombined before his eyes, forming a neat picture of the manor.
The only difference from other manor pictures is that there will always be such a strange place on the crack of the door, in the garden, among the leaves on the trees, so? An untimely eye pops out? Thief yo Turning around, as if trying to avoid the unexpected sight.
"One, two, three..." Why not? Counting silently, I didn't feel dizzy, but the more I counted, the more boring I became.
He could feel that the way the receptionist was looking at him had started to look strange, becoming more and more surprised.
So, he withdrew his eyes appropriately, raised his head, his face was pale, and cold sweat broke out realistically on his forehead, as if he couldn't hold on at last.
Yuan Buwei's tone was very regretful: "...only 140 eyes were found."
"How much more do you want to find! A spiritual sense value of 140 is already terrifying. This kind of value is actually not suitable for an investigator. Fortunately, your mental resistance is also high."
The receptionist obviously breathed a sigh of relief. Although his gaze was still looking at a monster, at least he wasn't surprised enough to shout: "Come on, man, get rid of this abnormal creature disguised as an ordinary person!"
She explained: "This oil painting is also a special sealed item. According to the bureau's test, the longer you look at it, the higher your mental resistance. The more abnormal eyes you find, the stronger your spiritual intuition."
While talking, she took out a form and "scrubbed" to fill in the information that was not for you: "Your qualifications are fine, and after a few more procedures, you can officially join the job and become the lowest level three Investigator."
"By the way, just a reminder. There is a price for using any sealed item. Have you seen it today? This nightmare oil painting, you will have nightmares for a week after that."
Before leaving, I got a reminder from the receptionist, so why not? He smiled and nodded, expressing his understanding.
After completing all the formalities, I can be regarded as a new investigator, not because I officially took office.
The first thing to do when taking office is to contain the flames of hatred.
Because this matter was not involved in it from the very beginning, he was able to participate in the next matter with Chu Kuang and the others—testing the flame of hatred.
According to the rules of the Special Affairs Bureau, every new sealed item must be tested to clarify its function and value before being contained.
The understanding of the Flame of Hatred by the Chu Kuang people actually came from the previous holders of the Flame of Hatred. Experienced investigators can deduce from their narratives the approximate effect of the Flame of Hatred? and the price. But this is inaccurate after all, now that we have brought this sealed item back, we need to test it seriously.
The first is the first effect?, which continuously amplifies the hatred in the bearer's heart.
In the safe house used for testing, as the flames burned, the mood of the prisoners who voluntarily signed agreements to serve as testers was getting worse. I don't know who he was thinking of, the prisoner who was tied to the chair struggled violently? "Let me go, I'm going to kill that bastard!"
Even if the burning flame of hatred was covered again by that piece of black cloth, his condition didn't improve at all, and his mood seemed to be getting more and more irritable.
On the other hand, the investigator took a pen to record: [... the holder will be overwhelmed by hatred, completely dominated by hatred, and will not even consider the pros and cons of gain or loss... There are currently no other side effects. Trying to use "opaque cloth" to isolate the "flame of hatred", the influence on the holder has not faded, but strengthened. It is currently speculated that this effect may be permanent; attempt to tap the bearer with the "Spoon of Sanity"...]
A wooden spoon the size of a soup spoon appeared in Bai Chi's hand at some point. He smiled and walked around behind the chair, lifted the spoon and hit the prisoner on the head.
Boom...
A circle of gold stars visible to the naked eye floated out from the top of the opponent's head. The prisoner who was still screaming frantically froze for a moment, showing a dazed state.
A second later, the man woke up from the daze and regained his senses, with a look of fear on his face: "Just now..."
"You did a good job. After you go back, your sentence will be commuted by one year according to the agreement." The investigator in charge of the test said a word as a routine, and motioned for others to take him down to delete his memory.
"The latter effect? Don't you need to test it? What's the curse?" Wade White asked curiously, "You can directly find a small animal to do the experiment, as long as you plant hatred for that small animal in the tester's heart. gone."
"...I'm afraid it won't work." The investigator seemed to be quite experienced, and in turn? warned, "As an investigator, you can't be reckless. The most important thing is to stay rational and learn to think. Think about it carefully. Why? Why? Can't test the curse of the flame of hatred!"
Yuan Buwei, who had been watching silently, suddenly said, "Because? The curse is uncertain."
"The so-called 'unfortunate' is really too difficult to define? Car accidents, plane crashes, stepping on watermelon rinds, earthquakes, floods, volcanic eruptions? Even being selected by weird rules... can all be called? Misfortune, when misfortune strikes Before, human beings were completely unable to predict which kind."
Bai Chi suddenly realized, and his face gradually changed.
If when they were testing, a large-scale earthquake or a large-scale meteorite attack suddenly came, that small animal would certainly be finished, but the entire Tianshui City, and even the people in a larger area, would also be finished.
He patted his chest gratefully, and still thought to tease: "So? It seems? Fortunately, the previous holders didn't use it indiscriminately. The curse you received, Yunan, was only for your own weird arrival. If a worldwide disaster came directly at that time, then not everyone would be buried with you!"
The investigator in charge of the test next to him also had a serious face: "So, all sealed items are dangerous. Any one of them may destroy the whole world. This flame of hatred must be contained with the strictest measures?"
"Wait, can you let me test it too?" Why not? He suddenly opened his mouth and pointed at the "flame of hatred" wrapped in the "opaque cloth". , a little curious."
Everyone else looked at him in surprise: "Do you still want to try?"
Yuan Mengxin? Investigator No Wei? Tilted his head, showing a cute and embarrassed smile: "Ah, I'm a little curious, will this thing affect me?"
An Miaomiao smiled in surprise, with a calm expression: "Why? Maybe it doesn't have any influence? Humans have seven emotions and six desires..."
Halfway through her words, her small mouth gradually opened wide.
I saw that Yuan did not calmly hold the candle and stare at it for half a minute. The firelight reflected his dark pupils. His expression of staring at the flame was calm and even pleasant, as if he was admiring something beautiful and interesting. .
Then he picked up the black cloth and covered it again.
It wasn't for you to look back.
He had already raised the spoon of sanity, and quietly stood behind Yuan Buwei? Bai Chi, holding the spoon in mid-air. He rolled his eyes and looked at Yuan in embarrassment: "Ha, ha, Yunan, are you okay?"
Other people's eyes were attracted to come over.
"Well, it's okay." I didn't seem to be thinking about something. After two seconds, I responded slowly, "It's just that, my aversion to certain 'dark dishes' now... probably increased Reached a new height."
... It's obviously so? So? Tasty but? So?? Self-confident, ignorant of his own taste, always likes to run up to him and shake it, so that he has to catch and eat hundreds of millions of them... Well, the more I think about it, the more unpleasant it becomes.
Others heard? Can't laugh or cry?.
... As long as there is even a trace of hatred towards other people in the heart, it will be fueled by the flame of hatred? The result? This person hates dark cooking instead? In a sense, this dark cuisine is also quite scary, at least it has defeated everyone's status in the opponent's heart.
"Although this emotion is innocuous, it doesn't come entirely from my own will. Let's get rid of it."
Wasn't it because? He took the "Spoon of Reason" from Wade White's hand, and hit it on his forehead.
Bang Dang? A circle of gold stars emerged from his head, as if a heavy hammer knocked away all distracting thoughts in his head, the young man was stunned for a second, his pure black eyes looked calm and harmless.
Then he blinked his eyes.
“…very new? Curious experience.”
Seeing that he really wanted to try a few more times, the other people around him hurriedly stopped him: "The "spoon of reason" also has side effects. Although it can make people get rid of abnormal mental state and restore reason. But if a person is knocked too many times, he will become more and more rational, gradually lose other emotions, and tend to be absolutely rational and calm. In the end, is that? still human? "
He carefully looked at the wooden spoon in his hand, he didn't want to return it, but he still asked enthusiastically: "Since I'm already an investigator, can I borrow the seal from the Special Affairs Bureau?" thing?"
"The APP on the official website of the Special Affairs Bureau that I sent you just now has relevant introductions. There are lists from the lowest level seven to the highest level zero sealed items. With your current authority, the sealed items from level zero to level three Probably not. If you want to rent or exchange sealed items, you can exchange them with the contribution value from the Secret Affairs Bureau. Of course, too dangerous Sealed Artifacts cannot be taken out of the Secret Affairs Bureau .” Chu Kuang, as the recommender, explained.
"By the way, new investigators can temporarily borrow a seventh-level sealed item. You also participated in the containment of the flame of hatred, and the corresponding contribution value has been calculated on the APP."
Originally, he clicked on the received APP on his mobile phone, and as expected, he found the list of sealed items that Chu Kuang said, and also saw his shining 17-point contribution value.
He took the list with his fingers, and soon his eyes lit up, and he clicked on something: "This is it."
An Miaomiao on the side frowned and reminded, ""Ghost Horn"? This sixth-level sealed item has the cheapest rental price in its class, but it is almost a tasteless one. Although you can summon ghosts, you cannot? control them. You know, once a living person dies and turns into a ghost, he will lose all his emotions during his lifetime, and instead harbor ill will towards the living person. It has happened before? The summoner summoned his own grandparents, but was killed by a ghost... What do you do with this?? "
"Help ghosts and ghosts find jobs again, find a new path of sustainable development for them, pay for ghosts, fight for ghost rights for ghosts, and let them live legally in this world."
"???" Everyone said, "... speak human words."
"... This involves two or three things that I and the ghosts and ghosts have to say. And... someone who took these two or three things and put them under his own name."
Come to this interesting world, why? I always feel that my trouble-making heart is about to move again, and I can't help but want to skin it.
"Now? Now, the sufferer is coming to the door."
