Chapter 46: It's time for my favorite part

It's been three days since the last appearance of the spirit people, and Shadow hasn't received any news of progress in this time.

Neither the local investigators of the United Council in Nanhe City, nor Wang Xiaorou and Wu Gang in Beijiang City, nor the Night Witch who asked for all the information about the victims in the three cities from him, did not send him any more information related to the spirit people.

He himself investigated alone in Nanhe City for a long time, but unfortunately found nothing.

Just when the investigation of the spirit people was at an impasse due to the disappearance of the spirit people, An Ying finally received a message from the Night Witch at noon today.

"Beijiang City, close the net."

The voice sent by the Night Witch was only six words, but it revealed a huge amount of information, which made An Ying very excited.

At night, An Ying, who was returning to Beijiang City by plane, was picked up at the forest villa by someone sent by the Night Witch at the airport gate.

In the hall on the second floor of the central area of the villa, a display screen is hung on the wall, and short videos with various background music are played outside.

In front of these displays, there are small chairs, each of which sits a Night Witch's subordinate.

The men in formal clothes each held a mobile phone in their hands, staring intently at the screen display.

The Night Witch sits in the middle, with a table in front of her with a large pile of loose papers and a cell phone.

An Ying was brought to sit next to the Night Witch, and he was about to ask about the Night Witch's spirit person, but he was startled by the deep dark circles on the Night Witch's face.

He stared at the dark circles under the night witch suspiciously: "Miss Night Witch, why are your dark circles so heavy all of a sudden?" ”

The Night Witch yawned sleepily, rubbed her panda eyes, and said lazily, "Do you see those monitors hanging on the wall?" I haven't slept for three days to help you find the spirit people.

Let's not talk about that, Mr. An Ying, please look at this map! ”

The Night Witch retrieved a map from a pile of papers and spread it out on the table.

The center of the map is Beijiang City, and then there are some central cities around Beijiang City, including Nanhe City and Zhanxing City.

It's just that what puzzled An Ying was that the map was still marked with red dots, and he didn't quite understand what this meant.

Seeing his confusion, the Night Witch lightly opened her lips: "Mr. An Ying, every red dot represents a spirit man event, if you look carefully, the area with the most red dots is Nanhe City, Beijiang City and Zhanxing City, and there are very few cases in other cities." ”

An Ying frowned and said, "The information I gave you is only that there are spirits in three cities. ”

"That's because there are too few cases in several other cities, and before the revival of Reiki, there were records of various supernatural events and urban legends around the world, so the regional joint councils with few cases did not record them, and I asked my people to investigate before I found out.

And Mr. An, did you notice that the distance between the outermost incident sites in these areas and Bac Giang City is almost the same.

I deduce that this is the farthest distance that a spirit person can cast a soul from the body, and if this inference is correct, then the probability of the spirit person's true body in Beijiang City is greatly increased. ”

In order to make An Ying see more intuitively, the Night Witch used a pen to connect the outermost crime locations and drew a circle with Beijiang City as the center.

Seeing this, coupled with the Night Witch's explanation, An Ying suddenly felt that the Night Witch's inference was correct.

However, he still has doubts in his heart, that is, the various short videos played in the hall on the second floor. He also asked, "What are these videos?" ”

As if to bring up an irritating topic, the Night Witch's brow furrowed. She took a deep breath and spit it out again.

"Mr. An Ying, do you remember the college student victims you met in Nanhe City? The victim had a hobby of shooting short videos with his classmates and posting them on a short video app called Yinyin.

Coincidentally, the two victims that the blind lady met in Beijiang City, and the victims I met were also music software enthusiasts.

Then I went through the profiles you sent to my other victims, most of whom liked to use audio software and had quite a few original video makers.

Don't you think it's weird? ”

Smelling the words of the night witch to guide him to think, An Ying pondered for a moment and replied: "Yinyin software, I know, this is a short video software that is popular all over Aixing, most of the people who play this are young people, and most of the victims are young people, it is not surprising that most people will use Yinyin software, or video creators, right?" ”

"Mr. An Ying missed a point, most of the cases of victims who do not use audio software occur near the victims who use audio software.

The last time I was actively attacked by an astral was because the victim of the audio software was so quickly frightened that the elves who hadn't had enough of it would find me deliberately squatting on the street next door. ”

The Night Witch said as she took out some of the victims' information from the papers on the table and compared them to make her words more convincing.

An Ying also looked at it carefully for a while, and indeed as the Night Witch said, there was a victim who was scared in advance near the place where these non-music software lovers were attacked.

He looked at the many monitors hanging on the wall again, and hesitated, "So you suspect that the motive of the spirit people is hidden in these videos?" ”

"Yes, after my investigation, most of the videos made by the victimized video creators are spreading positive energy. Coincidentally, these victims who like to use sound also like to watch positive videos.

At present, I initially suspect that the spirit people may have done something bad and posted it on the Internet, causing revenge.

First he retaliated against the victims who exposed his bad deeds, and then he began to retaliate against more people in this group.

In order to find out the motive of the spirit man and his true identity, my men and I have been watching videos made by video creators among the victims these days. ”

As she spoke, the Night Witch pointed to her dark circles helplessly, she was tired and half dead for his business these days.

No wonder the Night Witch doesn't have any news these days, it turns out that she is doing this! An Ying could also imagine how much work there was, and he replied, "Thank you for your hard work, Miss Night Witch, how long will it take to watch all the videos?" ”

"About half an hour, right? It just so happens that you're here too, so let's share the burden and let me rest for a while.

This is a portrait I drew based on my impressions of the spirit man, not necessarily accurate, but the general physical characteristics are marked.

If you see someone in the video who is similar to what I drew, you must press pause in time, and you will be responsible for my screen. ”

The Night Witch yawned sleepily again, and handed An Ying her mobile phone connected to the display to play short videos, and asked him to watch the last half hour for her.

An Ying took the phone and pressed the play button, staring intently at the display on the wall, which was originally in charge of the night witch.

Time passed minute by minute, and everyone in the hall on the second floor still did not notice that the person suspected of being a spirit person appeared in the short video.

Seeing that all the videos were about to be broadcast, one of the Night Witch's subordinates said excitedly: "Miss, is this person the spirit person you are looking for?" ”

The night witch, who was sitting on a chair and was sleepy, was instantly sleepy when she heard this, and looked over with An Ying.

When she saw the paused screen in the monitor in charge of the subordinate, her nervous expression suddenly overflowed with bitter joy.

"That's right, it's this person, Mr. An Ying, take a quick photo and send it to the people of your United Council, so that they can quickly call up this person's file!"

An Ying nodded, immediately took a photo and sent it to Chen Qing, and then called Chen Qing and asked him to quickly transfer this person's information.

While waiting for Chen Qing to send the information, the Night Witch and An Ying watched a short video of the appearance of the spirit man.

The creator of this video is nicknamed Only True Story, and the video consists of a series of photos with text. The short video is only one minute, but the number of views, retweets, likes, and comments has exceeded one million.

At the beginning, a woman is walking on her way to work when she is knocked down by a man and snatches her bag. The righteous and courageous citizens grabbed the man, brought the man to the woman, and returned the bag.

At the end, there is a short video recording, which is a picture of the righteous and courageous citizens leaving in a chic manner. It is also marked with the slogan "Praise for the positive energy of enthusiastic citizens", and next to the slogan is a love of thumbs up, suggesting that people who have watched the short video remember to like the video.

The man who knocked down the woman and snatched the woman's bag in the video is the spirit man, and the night witch who watched the video motioned to her subordinates to pull down the phone screen, and she wanted to see the comment area.

In the comment section, some are comments that praise the positive energy of enthusiastic citizens, and some are indignant comments about the behavior of spirit people.

The Night Witch and An Ying read more comments on the spirit people, which were full of all kinds of anger, full of unsightly insults, and even some of the comments even rose to the point of life attack.

After watching it, An Ying said: "The creator of the video exposed the bad things done by the spirit people, and then the spirit people were abused by the audience who watched the video, no wonder there will be a revenge mentality and take revenge on this group." ”

The Night Witch was thoughtful, although the direction of things was not much different from her initial guess, but she always felt that something was wrong with this short video, which was mostly pictures and text.

At this time, An Ying waited for the news from Chen Qing. However, he didn't look at the long section of the spirit man file first, but clicked on Chen Qingfa's voice: "The hiding place of the spirit man has been confirmed, quickly go to No. 77 Street in Lukou District, and the spirit man will be arrested tonight!" ”

Hearing this, An Ying lost the idea of reading the information first, he just wanted to arrest the spirit people as soon as possible.

Seeing that An Ying wanted to go directly, the Night Witch smiled and said, "Mr. An Ying, can you let me see the information of the spirit people before leaving?" ”

The crackling electricity flickered around him, and An Ying curled the corners of his mouth, twisted his neck that made a crisp sound, moved his muscles and bones, and threw his phone to the Night Witch by the way.

Under the gaze of the Night Witch, he walked down the stairs without looking back, with thunder surging all around him.

"It's finally my favorite part!"
