Chapter 90: A Thousand Faces for One Man (Part 2)

Early the next morning, Gu Yun received an unprecedented call from Chen Jiang.

After breakfast, it was just after eight o'clock when Gu Yun came to the foundation branch, and the employees were rushing to work one after another, according to the agreement, he went directly into Chen Jiang's office, and as soon as he pushed the door, a scoop of cold water was poured on Gu Yun's head.

"Master Gu, I'm sorry, but please listen to my explanation first!"

Before Gu Yun could take any action, Chen Jiang had already preemptively and sincerely apologized.

Wiping his face, Gu Yun saw that there was still a delicate silver dagger on the computer desk.

"The holy water that was poured on you just now, this is a silver dagger, and it can cause damage to shapeshifters."

In order to avoid being stabbed directly by Gu Yun, Chen Jiang slowly picked up the silver dagger in front of him and cut a bloody wound on the back of his hand to show his identity.

"Shapeshifter?"

Gu Yun had read an introduction to the Shapeshifter in the "Supernatural Encyclopedia", which said that no one knew the true appearance of the shapeshifter, because when the first shapeshifter appeared in the human eye, it had been living in the form of a dead person for a long time.

Shapeshifters were first spotted centuries ago in a village in southern Europe, where wandering witchers were told that people would disappear every now and then, and after a series of covert investigations, the hunters finally targeted a clergy of a church.

He infiltrated the basement of the church while the clergy were away, and found a large amount of melted flesh and skin.

And this experienced witcher was none other than Fryan Belmont, who was later sung.

Throughout his life, Fryan devoted his life to the study of most supernatural creatures, and later discovered that the Shapeshifters possessed an extremely large race, and most of the time, the Shapeshifters would disguise themselves as dead to live in human society, and their words and actions were indistinguishable from those of ordinary people.

What makes them even more imperceptible is that they don't have a vampire-like thirst for blood, nor do they have the urge to transform into a werewolf on a full moon night, which keeps them from causing any commotion.

And even if they are discovered, they can immediately change their identities and once again infiltrate human society.

The only things that can verify their identities are silver weapons and holy water.

Once exposed to both, the shapeshifter's skin burns from the inside out, just like vampires and werewolves.

What Chen Jiang did just now was just some vigilance work.

"Remember the relics you sent to the police station earlier? Among them were two homeless people who went missing. ”

"Of course."

"The police found out the true identities of the two homeless people based on relics and confessions from various sources, both of whom were locals of X City who died during the financial crisis, living without a fixed place and relying on begging and picking up garbage for a living, but after confirming the deaths of the two people, some employees have seen the two in the past few days."

Chen Jiang immediately thought of the shape-changing monster.

However, the shapeshifter is not a native monster, and in the past ten years of investigation by the Foundation, there has never been a record of the shapeshifter.

But as soon as he thought of the previous incident of the witch association, Chen Jiang went to read through the "Supernatural Encyclopedia" again.

This look gave him goosebumps.

Changelings sometimes appear alone, and sometimes act as a group.

That said, they are likely to be dealing with more than one shapeshifter, and they have had ample time to integrate into human society, and may even have blended into the Foundation.

Chen Jiang felt that the seriousness of the matter was beyond the control of the branch, so he had to discuss this matter with Gu Yunlai.

"Master Gu, I can't announce the news of the Shapeshifters infiltrating X City at the moment, otherwise once they infiltrate the branch, they will be alarmed, my plan is to screen out a group of trustworthy employees first, and let them secretly investigate the existence of the Shapeshifters."

It's not difficult to detect the identity of the shapeshifter, but if you have nothing to do and pour a scoop of water on someone's face, it will definitely arouse the other's alarm and suspicion.

"We hope you can assist us in our investigation."

"No problem."

After hearing this, even if Chen Jiang didn't ask him, he would still find trouble with these shape-changing monsters.

Because according to the "Supernatural Encyclopedia", the shapeshifters are a great threat to humans, and in order to avoid the identity of the deceased, they will kill the original owner directly after the change is over, thus completely replacing the identity of the deceased.

This is in case my sister meets a shape-changing monster on the way home.

In case Avril meets a shapeshifter on her way off work.

In case the little brother who delivers the courier on the weekend is a shape-changing monster pretending.

In case An Ling met a netizen disguised as a shape-changing monster on the Internet......

Hmm, it seems that the last one doesn't seem to have much of an impact.

However, this does not change the fact that the shapeshifter is a great threat, and the threat must be stifled in the cradle as soon as possible!

"By the way, do you have any extra holy water, I want to bring some back."

Although the last time he faced the man in the trench coat, Gu Yun recognized the true face of the shape-changing monster with the naked eye, but after all, it was just a monster created by the windbreaker man based on urban legends, and there may be some subtle differences between it and the genuine shape-changing monster, and it is always safer to have an extra insurance at this time.

"There are only two bottles left."

Chen Jiang gave one of the bottles of "mineral water" to Gu Yun, because there are almost no creatures such as vampires, werewolves, and shape-changing monsters in the local area, the branch usually does not prepare exorcism props for supernatural creatures in the Western world, and the bottles he took out are all samples, mainly provided for the training of low-level employees.

"However, there is a method for making holy water in the big library, you can take it back for reference, if it can be successfully made, I hope Master Gu can give us some at that time, after all, with the current reserves, it really can't support a large-scale investigation."

Although silver weapons can also hurt shapeshifters, the way to check the holy water is undoubtedly much gentler than being slashed.

For ordinary people, holy water does not look essentially different from clear water, there is no color and no strange smell, just splash it on the body and wipe it off.

"Okay."

Gu Yun took the holy water handed by Chen Jiang and agreed to the other party's request.

As long as you have this bottle of holy water, when you see someone suspicious near your home, you will splash the other party in the face first.

The next step is to find a way to mass-produce holy water, and if it can cause damage to the shapeshifters or limit their behavior, then at least two bottles of holy water must be brought to school every day for her sister to defend herself.

Well, I have to rush Shen Yue to school with her in the past few days, and with her, at least my sister's safety can be guaranteed.

Then, the key question is how to make holy water (home version).

Thinking of this, Gu Yun directly carried the mineral water bottle and walked to the big library.
