unfortunate black cat

Chapter 18 The Other Side of the World

The life of the black cat is very ordinary.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the city.

A middle-aged man in a black shirt was frowning, staring solemnly at a piece of instrument in his hand.

At this moment, the pointer inside the instrument has been fully turned to the right, even beyond the red zone marked with danger.

"hiss."

Subconsciously, Yue Mo took a puff of the unextinguished cigarette with his unshaven lips.

"call."

With a large smoke was slowly spit out.

The middle-aged man stood where he was, and took out the cigarette butt that was about to burn out in his mouth stiffly, then flicked the ash with his fingertips, and said to himself.

"Maybe it has condensed into an evil spirit? This matter is beyond my control..."

As he spoke, he took out his cell phone from his pocket.

It was eight o'clock in the morning, and the man made a direct call.

"Beep, beep, beep."

Wait until three empty beeps pass.

The phone was picked up.

"Hey."

"Hey, it's me, Kashiwagi."

"Ah, Mr. Kashiwagi, please tell me."

"I have confirmed the abnormal fluctuations in Chuangu City."

"Yes, what's the situation?"

"The news is true. The exact location of the incident is in the attached garden of the Guandong District of Chuangu City, under a big tree that looks quite old."

"Is there more accurate information?"

"The tree is conspicuous enough. It should be visible at a glance. In addition, the fluctuation this time has exceeded the normal apparition level. It is estimated that something is transforming into an evil spirit. I can't handle it. You should send more people."

"Okay, I see, please Mr. Kashiwagi."

"It's nothing, just remember to give me the reward."

"Please rest assured that we will transfer the reward to your account within three working days."

"That's fine, I still have something to do, so hang up first."

"Okay, looking forward to your call again."

"Farewell, it's better not to answer my phone."

"Beep." Silently pressed the hook button.

The man who called himself Cypress stood in front of the old tree blowing in the wind, with his hands in his pockets.

He seemed to be thinking about something.

After a while, he turned around and made another phone call.

"Hey, Lao Qin, it's me. Help me check the death cases that have occurred in Guanxia District in recent years. Yes, it's okay, it's just a matter of personal affairs. Just send the files to my office. Um, ok, ok. I'll trouble you then, I'll treat you to dinner next time."

When the sound faded away, the man had already left the community.

The city was getting more and more restless, and as a detective, he also felt a little busy.

……

There are spirits in this world, but most people can't see them.

In other words, all life has a soul.

The heavier the thought of life, the heavier the soul.

The heavier the soul, the more likely it is to be greedy for the world.

Therefore, the soul that still refuses to leave after death is called Bailing.

Most of the ghosts are unconscious, they only have thoughts about their previous lives.Therefore, it will only wander in the place where the missing is.When the miss dissipates, it dissipates along with it.

However, there are also good and bad longings. Evil longings can never be satisfied, so they will never dissipate.

After a long time, they naturally turned into another thing, a gas that was also invisible to the naked eye, and people called it evil spirits.

Evil spirits cannot give birth to consciousness, but they will interfere in the world and bring disasters to living creatures.And use the evil thoughts of living creatures as a guide to erode their souls and grow themselves.

The bigger the evil spirit, the more living things it can affect, and the more serious the disaster it will bring afterwards.

Until the worst case occurs, the evil spirit will condense its appearance when it died, and obtain the memory of its previous life, and then become a wraith.

Wraiths are conscious, and each of them can do harm to one side.

In ancient times, when technology was not yet developed, a wraith could even create a dead city.

Only a small number of spiritual practitioners who are born with talents and then painstakingly study this way can deal with them.

Fortunately, with the rapid development of technology.

In recent years, even ordinary people, with professional training and special tools, can gradually cope with some simple supernatural events.

Even in order to prevent the birth of resentful spirits, human society has specially set up anonymous offices. They walk in unknown shadows, investigate various unsolved and suspicious cases, and intend to extinguish danger in the cradle.

From years of experience, people have summed up a set of criteria for dividing the intensity of supernatural powers.

The first is the manifestation, which is the stage when the supernatural has just appeared, and it is also the stage that ordinary people can solve.

In the supernatural events at this stage, only the least harmful ghosts will appear, and the weak individuals among them cannot even affect living things.

Even a white spirit with strong evil thoughts can only interfere with people's mind slightly before being completely reduced to an evil spirit.

However, don't underestimate this inconspicuous ability. When the mind is chaotic, some people are likely to obey the instinct and commit serious crimes.

Such as murder, rape and so on.

Therefore, even if it is only a supernatural event in the stage of apparition, it also needs to be handled with caution.

Otherwise, if you are not careful, it will lead to irreversible consequences.

After that, there are evil spirit incidents that ordinary people are not easy to intervene in.

Once it becomes an evil spirit, the influence of the spirit body on living things will increase exponentially.

The most intuitive manifestation is that it will make people unlucky and thus more likely to encounter disasters.

Under the ensuing bad luck, people's mentality will undoubtedly become more and more negative, and the psychological defense line will become weaker.

In this way, the evil spirits can easily eat away at the human soul, and then seriously damage the human spirit, turning the host into a walking corpse.

During this process, the evil spirits will use the spirits of living creatures to grow themselves. At the same time, the more powerful the evil spirits, the wider the range they can reach, and the faster they can devour souls.

An evil spirit that has grown to the extreme is enough to be regarded as a disaster in a certain area, and it may even induce various natural disasters in the area.

Such as earthquakes, typhoons, floods, etc.

Unless there are top spiritual practitioners to take action, the problem will not be solved at all.

In the end, there is a supernatural event in which resentful spirits appear.

People generally refer to them as evil disasters.

In modern society, evil disasters rarely occur, and usually not a single resentful spirit will be born in decades. However, once a resentful spirit takes shape, it cannot be easily eliminated.

Many wraiths cannot be killed, because they have their own set of endogenous logic, and if the rules are not broken, they will not perish.

Therefore, people can only seal them in some utensils and keep them strictly.

The utensils that seal the wraith are called curse objects.

There have been thousands of spell objects since ancient times, and they are now scattered all over the world and kept in secret.

Needless to say, one cannot let wraiths escape from the object.

Otherwise, with thousands of wraiths, it will be a turmoil that will spread to the world.
