Folk customs begin with Wu Caishen

Chapter 4 Folklore Inventory Bureau
Shi Xin seems to have opened an even weirder door...

But now is not the time to explore this. As an ordinary citizen in peacetime, what should you do when you see a pile of corpses?
escape?
She didn't want to be listed as a suspect, so the surveillance camera had already captured her going downstairs, so it would be more appropriate to call the police.

Let the white-haired girl return to the book, the mysterious cat hides the opera bag, the various liquids in the water gun are poured into the sewer, and the kitchen knife is put back in its place.

When the police arrived at the scene, only a panicked, helpless and pale little girl remained at the scene of the crime.

Obviously, this was an extremely heinous crime!
But the situation is far more serious than that.

The police cars surrounded the building, the ambulance lights kept blaring, and there was an inconspicuous black van outside. I noticed him because there was a police officer who still chose to lean in when everyone was busy. Two men in black shirts passed cigarettes through the car window.

The two men stared at Shi Xin intently, their eyes sharp, showing that they had already seen through it.

Ji He lit up and took a sip. It could be seen from the shallow puff that he was not happy. His eyebrows were furrowed and he stared at the body bag carried out by the medical staff, showing a hint of sadness.

"It's really evil." The police officer who handed the cigarette described it very carefully, "These people... died very strangely."

Yes, even the surveillance cameras couldn't find the murderer. Shi Xin was the only one going upstairs and downstairs, and then this tragedy happened.

The strange thing is time.

Residents living in this building went to and from work as usual yesterday and went home to sleep. They were found to be swollen to a giant figure tonight. If they accidentally collided while moving the body, they would be able to see the power of the exploding balloon on the spot. , the spilled stuff will definitely keep you hungry for three days.

Based on logical reasoning alone, Shi Xin must have done it alone. However, the unbelievable way of death and the last thing the deceased did before his death were too surprising.

It can be regarded as an urban ghost story.

The staff were all cowering in fear, and there was a sudden commotion and screaming in the corridor. The three of them hurried over to check.

"Another one exploded!" The pale-faced young man put down the middle-aged man on his back, "The dirt splashed on the master, and he fainted on the spot. Team Ji, is this okay?"

Police car lights, searchlights, residential street lights, a series of red flowers and green trees shine on Ji He's face, dazzling and blurry.

Shi Xin stood aside, shocked and speechless.

Ji He glanced at her and reassured everyone: "It's okay, it's just a simple corpse. It should be treated with a scientific perspective."

No one echoed, everyone was silent.

Science... what you represent is unscientific. When these words come out of your mouth, they can be described as high-sounding.

Ji He didn't explain much, walked around Shi Xin's pocket and walked in. Qiao Wuyi quickly followed.

He was Ji He's old partner. He thought for a while and said: "It seems that we didn't see any fruit flies this time. Everyone in this building is also dead. The parasitism of the two-headed ghost can't support its action for long. Maybe It’s disappeared.”

"Don't be careless." Ji He went upstairs one by one to check the rooms. "Now many people are looking for the curse of the Two-Headed Ghost. Although we already have enough tickets, if you find one more, you can prevent one more and save yourself from being caught later. All forces are fighting."

Qiao Wuyi smiled and said: "We have an official background after all. Those petty quarrels are nothing."

Not finding what they were looking for, the two gave up at the right time and went downstairs to call Shi Xin aside.

He took out his ID and made sure she saw it.

"Player?"

Shi Xin didn't react, and it took him a long time to say, "Huh?"

"It's nothing."

Ji He smiled lightly and said to her: "I'm just promoting an electronic scam to you. There is a game called "Lord of the Wild". If others ask you to download it, just don't touch it. By the way, stay away from the players of this game to avoid being deceived. Jump off the building.”

This unique explanation actually made Shi Xin want to praise him.

Isn't it? I'll give you a few heaven-defying buffs at the beginning, and they will kill you more and more as you go on. It's enough to just play them in the game, but they have to touch you in reality.

Can a player with such a small body be able to defeat a demon and a monster?

That's not a scam game.

Ji He wanted to say something else, but he opened his mouth and stopped.

"to cooperate in work."

In the end, I just left this sentence and returned to the van.

Qiao Wuyi asked him: "Are we not going to investigate again?"

Not many people can survive from the hands of monsters and monsters, Shi Xin is one of them.

"What are you checking, player?" Ji He lit another cigarette. This time he was in a better mood and took a long puff. "The game has spread a long time ago. Young people can't stop it if they seek death. If the two-headed ghost is If she killed him, then she is also capable of killing other ghosts and monsters. If not, she will be protected by ordinary police officers."

The current purpose of the Inventory Bureau is to turn a blind eye. Before the red-headed documents for placing the players are issued, they cannot take any action against the players except to clean up the mess if necessary.

This is not the first time they have come into contact with these things after the game came. They even set up the Folklore Inventory Bureau specifically to deal with these matters.

But it was limited to the aftermath. If it hadn't been for [The Curse of the Two-Headed Ghost], they might not have made this trip despite their busy schedule.

"What about the curse? What do you mean by curse?"

Ji He thought for a while...

In fact, he really didn't think Shi Xin looked like a player. Even if he did, he must be a good kid.

After five years of working in the industry, there is a stubborn look in his eyes. Nine times out of ten, he has an awkward personality, which is related to his original family. He still yearns for sunshine in his heart and will not do bad things. "Young people can't make any trouble. Not to mention that even if you have a ticket, it doesn't mean you can enter. She has been recorded. Keep an eye on her and it won't cause any major problems."

"Your soft-heartedness has returned! I can't be cruel to those who are younger than you." Qiao Wuyi smiled and shook his head: "By the way, aren't you only 26 this year? Are you a young man?"

"My face is not old, but my heart is old." Ji He leaned back and rested his arms, "I deal with monsters and monsters every day, my heart has been sucked dry by them long ago."

The van drove away, and with it the mystery about what he represented.

The police officers and medical staff immediately changed their faces and dragged Shi Xin to the hospital for examination as if they were protecting a rare animal.

I even felt a little more in awe when I looked at her.

Can people who can survive supernatural events be ordinary people?
After the physical examination, notes were taken. Compared to being read over and over again with a CT report in the hospital for fear of missing some detail, the interrogation at the police station turned out to be the most common thing.

If the question she asked could not be stacked on three pieces of paper, she would really believe it!

"The Folk Customs Inventory Bureau...is a newly established branch of our public security?"

Seeing that the question and answer came to an end, Shi Xin took the opportunity to say: "The elder brother showed me the ID, but I didn't understand it."

The apprentice who took the notes said mysteriously: "If you don't understand, don't ask. We all still know a little bit about it."

The master slapped me over and said, "You are talking nonsense even if you don't understand me."

Shi Xin had an idea in his mind.

It turns out that even within the officialdom, the Inventory Bureau is independent.

Looking at the attitude of the police who kept secrets about them but did not explore too much, it is reasonable to speculate that during the time when the game was launched, the country also integrated effective force governance.

Sure enough, the country never worries people in terms of security.

Corresponding……

A large-scale invasion of reality by monsters and monsters is a certainty!
It is conceivable that if Shi Xin had not been exposed to games, then there would be an entire building where she died today!

Weakness will bring people panic all day long.

It is safe to rely on national protection, but it is also necessary to strengthen one's own strength.

One code after another, she still did not choose to expose her talent. The power brought by the God of Wealth Zhao Gongming could not protect the weak.

In this world, this kind of ability can easily become a tool for others. As long as the conditions are met, perhaps one's life can be put on both ends of the scale.

Although the two people from the Inventory Bureau did not delve too much into her identity today, and the person who contacted her was not a relevant department, this does not mean that the matter was not taken seriously. If it is later discovered that she is a player...

Let’s not talk about what will happen. At least it is in a hidden state now. Let’s take it step by step.

It was already twelve o'clock when I got home after a busy night.

Neighbors from other buildings whom she had no contact with on weekdays expressed their comfort to her, and the warmth of human kindness gave Shi Xin peace of mind.

The tense nerves relax and the whole person becomes hungry.

Compared with ordinary people who are afraid of supernatural events, she has more ideas about filling her stomach after experiencing killing ghosts with a kitchen knife.

She chose to eat...instant noodles.

After a dozen mouthfuls of noodles and a delicious soup, this eating journey is over and I am extremely satisfied.

After all, the curse of the two-headed ghost is to find food that is more than three days old. Instant noodles, such as instant noodles, will not rot, which means it is absolutely safe to a certain extent.

Turn on your phone and click on Station B. This month’s income as an up owner is about 80 yuan. Although she is a game up owner with [-] fans, apart from accepting advertisements and receiving creative incentives, the poor coins can’t bring her much money. , most of the audience were white prostitutes, and she could only sigh secretly.

This three thousand and three can be withdrawn now. All the savings used in exchange for the water gun also refer to existing money. Just like the salary your boss promised you, it will not be yours before it is paid. Maybe it will go bankrupt and default on it?

Shi Xin called out Baifa Ji, and she wanted to see the power of this Yin spirit when she had time.

"Can you understand me?"

White-haired Princess floats in mid-air, with horrifying red eyes, but her eyelashes and skin are as white as snow. She closes her eyes when she nods, and points to her mouth intelligently, indicating that she cannot speak.

"It doesn't matter, I want to see how you manipulate the thread."

White-haired Ji stretched out her hand toward the balcony. Her nails began to peel off in circles like silk threads. The skin, bones, pitiful white blood, and some visible black blood vessels gathered into transparent lines and wrapped around the clothes hanger. She gently took off the clothes. He was pulled over by the collar.

The clothes fell into Shi Xin's arms, and she couldn't help but admire that this was really a lazy man's artifact.

"It turns out that the body is your thread, and it is the ability to control the physical body. I thought it was controlling physical lines."

But this is not impossible. The game says that collecting evil spirits can make Yin spirits more powerful. Perhaps this ability will be developed in the future?
"go to sleep."

After letting the white-haired girl go back to Renshu to rest, Xuan Mao jumped out immediately and threw herself into Shi Xin's arms to act like a baby.

"So cute~"

Shi Xin opened the game and continued to explore, while gently stroking Xuan Mao's little head.
