Finding a corner where no one was around, the poplar began to practice "splitting" against a tree, without any fancy movements, just standing in place and slashing at the trunk of the tree with one knife after another.

"One, two, three······" A young and energetic voice echoes in the park.

Coincidentally, next to the poplar tree is a group of old men and old ladies dancing Tai Chi swords, one is strong and one is soft, one is fast and one is slow, and they complement each other.

However, there were a few middle-aged people in the sword-dancing team who looked quite sturdy, but from time to time they turned their heads to look in the direction of the poplar tree, very curious about it.

In this way, the two spent an hour together without incident, and it was now eight o'clock in the morning.

Poplar swung 3,000 knives an hour, a big improvement from yesterday, and when he packed his things and planned to go to school, he was stopped.

"Young man, wait a minute" spoke a middle-aged man with sparse hair, wearing a white practice uniform, holding a Tai Chi sword in his hand, followed by several other people in the same costume.

"Uncle, is there something wrong?" Poplar stopped.

"Young man, what is the name of that knife you practiced just now?" the middle-aged man asked with some wrypling.

"Basic knife skills. Yang Shu replied casually, he was about to be late now, and he didn't want to waste time, "I'll leave first if there's nothing to do, I'm almost late for class." ”

"Eh, don't, don't," the middle-aged man hurriedly stopped Yang Shu, "That's the case, a few of us want to practice that knife with the little brother." ”

"My brothers are all retired athletes, and they come out to practice in the morning when they are idle, but this Tai Chi sword is also unlucky. The middle-aged man complained, causing several other people to nod their heads in agreement.

"Seeing how energetic you are practicing, little brother, I want to ask if you can bring a few uncles?"

"I'll ask. Yang Shu didn't agree directly, after all, it was Genpei who taught him.

He took out his mobile phone and pretended to type, but in fact, he sent a message to Genhei through the Book of Souls.

“

Poplar: Can I teach that knife technique to ordinary people?

Genhei Shimada: Yes.

”

"Okay, no problem. Poplar agreed, "I'll be here tomorrow morning at this point, so you can just come to me." ”

"Where are you going to buy this knife?"

"It's available online. ”

"Okay, thank you, little brother, I'm delaying you. ”

"It's fine. Poplar waved his hand, turned away, went downstairs, and rode his bicycle to the school.

······

Just as Yang Shu arrived at the school gate, another familiar class bell rang, and he quickly locked his bicycle in the carport and took a wild step towards the classroom.

The wooden knife was stuck in his waist, and it swayed as he walked, making it particularly eye-catching.

On the way, the familiar voice of the teaching director sounded in his ears again: "Classmate, stop, which class are you, you're late!"

"Classmates stop, can't bring knives into the classroom!"

But what the poplar leaves to the world is only a running back.

"Report!" shouted Poplar as he opened the classroom door, his breath steady and his voice strong and powerful, in stark contrast to the panting he once had.

"Come in. Chen Jingjie was accustomed to this, and even the wooden knife inserted by the poplar tree in her waist failed to attract her attention.

Both Anyi and Rachel were not surprised to learn that Poplar was going to practice knives.

"Yang Shu, do you want to practice knives?" As soon as he sat down, Yang Shu heard He Yue on the side ask in a low voice.

"That's right, in fact, I am the fifteenth generation descendant of the Great Xia Dragon Bird Hundred Battle Sword, and the people of the rivers and lakes call it the Sword Dragon Poplar. ”

"Wow, you're amazing!" He Yue's eyes were full of little stars, and she looked adoring, "Can you let me see it later?"

"This, I'm not good at learning now, I can only make one move. Poplar's tone was very embarrassed, "I'll have to practice later, I can't let you see it." ”

"Uh-huh, I'm looking forward to it!"

A class passed quickly, and Poplar came to the open space at the back of the classroom with a knife, attracting the attention of the classmates.

"Poplar, when did you practice knives?" spoke a boy sitting in the back row of the classroom, with white natural curly hair and a pair of dead fish eyes, looking listless.

Yang Shu knows him, his name is Yinchen, he is the deputy head of the school's kendo department, and he is very popular among girls.

"I just practiced yesterday. ”

"Oh. Yinchen lost his interest in learning when he heard Yang Shu's answer, and turned around to write and draw on the paper.

The poplar tree took a stance and began to swing his knife one by one, and the sound of "huh, huh" was inconspicuous in the noisy classroom.

Thanks to a variety of club activities, the recess of Jinchuan Middle School is particularly exciting, blowing, playing, singing, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting can be seen everywhere, and it is really nothing for poplars to practice a knife.

He Yue sat down in the empty seat on the side, put her hands on her cheeks, and watched the poplar's movements intently, smiling from time to time, not knowing what was going on in her head.

In this way, the time of the day passed quickly, and Poplar had swung a total of 2,000 knives between classes, leaving 5,000 knives left from the target, and the middle two values had increased by 120 points.

When he came to the activity room, he found that Chu Qiu, Rachel, and An Yi were all there, and the three of them were sitting precariously with serious faces.

"Poplar, sit down, I've got the information for the next mission. Chu Qiu pointed to the empty side of the square table and said.

Yang Shu sat down as he said, and was infected by the atmosphere, and also straightened his face.

"This is the intelligence note for this mission. As before, Chu Qiu took out four stacks of A4 paper and handed out one to everyone.

Item No.: PDCU-6332

Project Name: Endless Men's Toilet

Item Description: PDCU-6332 is the men's toilet portion of a public restroom located at 576 Shuanglong Street, JN District, CQ City.

It was not until July 12, 20XX that the body of a missing man was found in a compartment of the object. An autopsy revealed that the immediate cause of the man's death was a blow to the head, which was presumed to have committed suicide by hitting a wall.

On July 14, 20XX, the body of another missing man was found in a compartment of the object, the cause of death was excessive blood loss, the deceased showed signs of bites all over his body, and his stomach was severely atrophied. The continuous appearance of corpses attracted the attention of the local police, who sealed off the public toilet where the object was located, and launched a full investigation.

Several more bodies were later found in the locked-down cell, with a cumulative number of 6, and the results of the investigation revealed that all six died by suicide, with the only common denominator being that they had all used the toilet in the public toilet where the object was located before their disappearance, and that all were male.

This phenomenon aroused the great attention of the Federation, and two investigation teams were sent to conduct a search, and because the search was obstructed by force, the Investigator Division submitted an application for a joint mission to the Cleaners Division.

Anomalous Properties: Individuals who use the toilet alone in the object's chamber (which must have a complete process of excretion) have a certain probability (approximately 10%) of entering an alien dimension (the spatial coordinates of this space have not yet been discovered, but can be determined to be independent of the real world) after opening the toilet door.

The environment of this heterodimensional space is indistinguishable from a normal men's restroom, but can be extended to both sides (currently recorded as 126 cubicles), and after leaving the starting chamber, the following special circumstances will occur (including but not limited to):

(1) psychological tension and panic (with);

(2) The lights flickered on and off;

(3) Various stains appear on the ground;

(4) strongly suspect the presence of someone in the toilet cubicle and attempt to open each cubicle door;

(5) Various items appear in the compartment;

The effects of all of the above psychiatric interventions cannot be fully achieved by currently known means

Eliminate.

Exploration Log:

The first investigation team (two members, one male and one female):

Upon moving to the 32nd chamber, the female investigator experienced greater stress and opened the 32nd chamber with no items inside.

At the 36th compartment, the male investigator also experienced greater mental stress and opened the 36th compartment, which contained a lump of human excrement in the toilet bowl and no samples were taken.

The 39th compartment was opened······

The 54th chamber is opened, and a ghoul appears in the chamber, which is killed by the combined efforts of the investigators, and the female investigator is wounded.

The mental stress of the investigators escalated further to level 3.

The 56th chamber was opened, and there was a large swarm of scarabs in the chamber, and the investigators began to flee.

During the escape, the male investigator uses the ability [Spoiler] and learns that if they don't go back to their original chamber and hide, they will die at the mouth of the scarab.

The two investigators returned to their original chamber and, after hiding for an hour, opened the door again to find themselves back in the men's restroom where PDCU-6332 was located, and the investigation failed.

Second Investigation Team (2 members, 2 males):

······

The 126th chamber was opened, and there was a harpy in the chamber, and the investigator was killed in the process of escaping.

Note: In the process of performing the task, in case of force majeure, you can return to the original compartment, stay for more than an hour and then open the door to return to the original space position.

”

The document was long, and it took Poplar nearly an hour to read it, and when he looked up, he found that the others were waiting for him, and it seemed that he had already finished reading it.

"Why are you looking so fast?" asked Poplar, puzzled.

"Our supernatural energy can nourish the spirit and increase IQ to a certain extent. Rachel replied, "I didn't mean you to be stupid. ”

"Everyone has finished reading the document, right?" Chu Qiu asked, "Is there any problem?"

"What does the PDCU with the item number prefix mean?" Yang asked.

This means that the object is possible, but has not yet been determined to be non-compliant with the currently known laws of the natural sciences and the occult. ”

Poplar nodded in understanding.

"Our mission is to assist the investigation team and find out why the anomaly occurred. After answering Yang Shu's question, Chu Qiu continued, "Everyone knows that this mission is very difficult and uncertain. ”

"So, say something I shouldn't say as a captain. Although your mission is to protect the members of the investigation team, your first priority is to ensure your own personal safety and not to think of sacrificing yourself for the sake of others. ”

"Especially you," Chu Qiu turned his head to stare at the poplar tree, "Don't break out in the second soul inexplicably, shout 'You go to my palace first' and send you to death." ”

"Hmph, I'd rather teach me to bear the world, and stop teaching the world to bear me!" Yang Shu's face was gloomy, and he lowered his voice and said, "How can I be that kind of hypocrite?"
