Chapter 81: Shadow Puppetry

What is the best thing about having a female ghost at home?

The answer is to save on electricity bills.

The doors and windows are closed, the heavy curtains are closed, and the whole room is airtight.

Chai Cuiqiao was lying on the sofa in the living room playing with her mobile phone, with the soles of her feet resting on the closed fish tank containing the corpse specimens, exuding cold yin air from top to bottom, like a high-power central air conditioner, bringing the chill to every corner of the room.

In the bedroom, Li Ang wore a white camisole in the shape of a plastic bag, a blue leaky pants, and sat comfortably on a chair playing with a computer with his feet in a basin filled with water.

In late summer and early autumn, it stands to reason that the weather should gradually get cooler, but this year this is not the case.

The sun was high and cloudless, the air seemed to freeze, the ground was scorched with steam, and it was difficult to see a figure on the streets that used to be full of pedestrians.

Yin broke the record of the highest temperature in autumn in previous years, air conditioners were sold out of stock, and the electricity bills of most households increased several times.

This weather is definitely abnormal, but I don't know if it is related to extraordinary factors.

"It's so hot, I don't want to go out and trigger the quest at all."

Leon rolled his eyes and complained as he browsed the player forums,

There are only a few posts on the forums about the unusual weather in Yin - the vast majority of players are still more interested in the strategy methods of scripted quests, or the auction of equipment items on the black market.

"I can't seem to find any information about the Epiphany organization..."

He closed the web page with a frown, and after completing the mission in Longheng Plaza, he had been searching for information about Epiphany.

It is definitely not a good thing to be able to cultivate a special person like Xu Tuo'an at a time when the killing game has not yet started more than ten years ago, and try to bury a formation like the Yin Gathering Array in the local Longheng Square in Yin City-whether they want to raise corpses or ghosts.

After the mission was completed, the field staff of the Special Affairs Bureau quickly rushed to Longheng Square and conducted a two-day blockade investigation.

Just to be on the safe side, Li Ang also anonymously sent an email to the Secret Service Bureau two days later, vaguely pointing out that the time of the incident in Longheng Plaza was related to the Epiphany Organization.

As for the reaction of the Special Affairs Bureau to this and what countermeasures it will come up with, it is not within the jurisdiction of Li Ang.

Chai Cuiqiao on the sofa turned over and shouted lazily: "Hey~ Li Ang, the yin qi of this corpse is about to be drained~"

"Got it."

Li Ang shouted without looking back: "You save some use first, let's go out in the evening." ”

The so-called going out is actually to go to a place where the yin qi is heavier such as a hospital cemetery, so that the soul banner can recover some energy.

Raising ghosts is not good, you have to pay attention to prevent the supply from being cut off at all times, if it is an ordinary little ghost, then you only need to offer a few drops of blood every day,

If it is a powerful ghost like Chai Cuiqiao, the amount of yin qi required to maintain the body every day becomes quite large.

Zou Zhengze, who died in a tragic manner and was made into a specimen and soaked in formalin after his death, could only provide Chai Cuiqiao with a month's yin qi.

The soul-attracting banner that can hold three ghost creatures is actually a very powerful prop.

Even in the early stage of the killing game, a low-level player can use this item to raise three powerful ghosts of the same level, and his strength will soar instantly.

But the consequence of this is that the demand for yin qi is terrifying.

If there are three ghosts, I am afraid that I will have to find two or three corpses that have died in vain every day and refine their yin qi in order to raise them

This is also the reason why Li Ang has not paid much attention to the equipment of the Soul Attracting Banner - this thing is a pre-stage artifact for those Southeast Asian head lowering masters who specialize in raising ghosts and raising Gu, and it is much worse for players like Li Ang who live in Yin City, which has good security.

"Oh."

Chai Cui replied, looked at the fish tank full of formalin, and was very reluctant.

I finally got used to this kind of life when my yin trachea was full, and then I went back to the life of going to the cemetery every day to sneak wool....

From thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift, it is difficult, and it is uncomfortable.

Yinshi Hongxing Compound Fertilizer Co., Ltd. was established in 2017, the company's product structure is perfect, covering a series of new products such as active fertilizer, bio-organic fertilizer, compound microbial fertilizer, water-soluble fertilizer, soil conditioner, etc.

With an annual production capacity of 1 million tons of compound fertilizer, it has carried out in-depth cooperation with the world's top 500 enterprises, and is a modern fertilizer group integrating R&D, production, sales and technical services.

These are the introduction of the official website page of Yin Red Star Compound Fertilizer Co., Ltd., if you follow the web address, you can find a building located in the southeast corner of Yin City Industrial Park.

The eight-storey, age-old building is covered in dark green curved glass, the walls are paved with faded red bricks, and there is a steel shed at the back of the building, which blends in with the factories in the surrounding industrial park.

On the surface, this company is quite formal, the factory machinery runs non-stop during the day, trucks full of fertilizer go in and out, and often imports some high-end atmospheric fertilizer-related machinery.

However, more than 200 meters underground of the factory, there is an extremely large and spacious space with a total of 10 floors, and the headquarters of the Special Affairs Bureau is located here.

Wanli Fengdao, wearing a gray staff uniform, walked out of the elevator room, swiped his card through the security door, and walked through the long narrow corridor to the reception hall on the first floor of the Special Affairs Bureau.

The reception hall is quite spacious, with green plants on the left and right sides of the entrance, special light tubes embedded in the ceiling to simulate the feeling of normal sunlight, and the floor is dark marble tiles, which sound crisp when stepped on.

The ground is a hot summer, but the ground is cool and refreshing, the innermost side of the hall is the reception desk of the Special Affairs Bureau, and there are three employees of the Special Affairs Bureau sitting on the left, middle and right behind the front desk, one man and two women, with a very high appearance, dignified and professional attitude, responsible for reception and handling relevant procedures.

Although it is set up underground, it is exactly the size of the hall of a 500-strong company.

Three staff members at the front desk are checking in for three visitors, and several people in various costumes are sitting on benches on both sides of the hall waiting.

The men were wearing masks or masks, and were holding a completed certificate in the palm of their gloved hand.

They are the bounty hunters among the players.

With the gradual progress of the killing game, all kinds of abnormal events occur frequently, and the Special Affairs Bureau, as an official organization, is limited by the lack of special operations personnel, and cannot solve abnormal events in a comprehensive and timely manner.

As a result, the Secret Service will post bounties on the forums to encourage players to provide clues about unusual events, or to help the Secret Service track down wanted criminals involved in vicious criminal cases.

After performing the mission of the Lonely Han Temple, Wanli Fengdao has been in contact with Xing Hechou.

Recently, he has become a bounty hunter, solved an abnormal incident that posed a major threat to the safety of people's lives and property, and maintained a good relationship with the Special Affairs Bureau.

Maybe after another incident, he will officially become a field officer of the Special Affairs Bureau under the recommendation of Xing Hechou.

Wanli Sealing Dao sat on the bench and waited for a while, and soon it was his turn.

"I just solved a Lv5-level paranormal event."

He placed a portable video recorder on the desk at the front desk, "This is the relevant proof." ”

The young lady at the front desk checked the video recorder a little, and after confirming that there was no problem, she sent a report that needed to be filled out by herself and a one-time pass to Wanli Sealing Knife.

The young lady at the front desk put on a very professional smile and said softly: "Please go to the rear security department on the fourth floor for relevant appraisal, and you can get a reward after passing the appraisal." ”

That's right, even if the player just performs a routine task and kills one or two ghosts, they can still come to the Special Affairs Bureau to receive a portion of the game currency reward - although it is not as good as the system's task reward, no matter how small the mosquito legs are, they are still meat.

This mechanism may seem like a short-term loss, but it is actually quite cost-effective - it not only encourages players to actively solve abnormal events to help the official stabilize the situation, but also eliminates the gap between players and special bureaus, so that more players tend to join the official organization.

Just think of it as a thousand dollars to buy horse bones, lose money and make money.

Wanli Fengdao took the report to the fourth floor, and just got out of the elevator room and saw an acquaintance.

A strong man with a tiger's back and a strong waist and a strong face of the Chinese character, his eyes were red and he looked haggard.

Holding a medicine bottle in his left hand and a file bag in his right hand, he was walking out of the gate of the logistics support department.

It was the captain of a certain combat team of the Yin City Branch of the Special Affairs Bureau, Xing Hechou.

Seeing the acquaintance, Wan Li Fengdao greeted him with a smile and said hello: "Brother Xing." ”

Xing Hechou, who had heavy dark circles around his eye sockets, came back to his senses, and he didn't recognize Wanli Sealing Knife at first glance - this post-90s generation suddenly became much younger after shaving his beard, and his appearance and age suddenly degraded from his forties to his thirties.

Although it still looks very greasy, middle-aged.

"Brother Sealing Knife, long time no see."

Xing Hechou barely squeezed out a few smiles, saw the report in the other party's hand, and asked, "Are you here to receive the reward?" ”

"Well," Wan Lifeng nodded, glanced at Xing Hechou's thin face and bloodshot eyes, and said hesitantly: "Brother Xing, are you okay?" Do you want me to call someone? ”

"It's fine." Xing Hechou coughed a few times, covered his mouth with his fist, and said: "I've been busy dealing with a case these days, cough cough, I haven't slept well, come and get a bottle of medicine to sleep and calm my nerves..."

Case? Wanli Fengdao's eyebrows raised, he was curious in his heart, hesitated a few times, and finally didn't ask too much.

Xing Hechou saw the expression on the other party's face, smiled, put the document bag in Wanli Sealing Knife's hand, and said, "It's just a serial murder case involving players, and we have already posted the reward to the forum.

The difficulty is around Lv7, so if you have an idea, you can try it. ”

Wanli Fengdao curiously took the file bag, opened it, and read according to the words on it: "Shadow puppet... Play? ”
