Chapter 232: The Impossible

I was exhausted by the questions in my head, and I called the Minro shaman for help, but Doroti told me that the Minro shaman told me to rest well tonight and wait until tomorrow.

I'll have to wait until tomorrow.

I always felt that the unreasonable assumption was probably the closest to the truth, but I couldn't figure out the reason for it for the time being.

Coupled with the fact that McQuay is a paranormal investigator after all, I believe that even if he encounters danger, he will be able to calmly resolve it.

So I didn't worry about him, I didn't even try to find out which hotel he was staying in, I just found a place to have dinner and went back to the hotel to sleep.

From yesterday to today, I walked for eight or nine hours on the mountain, and my body was as tired as my brain, so I slept very soundly, and there were no ghosts or anything to disturb me.

When I woke up the next morning, I took a good shower and called Doroti, who told me something that upset me.

"Mingluo Shaman is no longer with me! When I woke up early this morning, he was gone, and he didn't even leave me a word of farewell! He told me.

"Do you know where he went?" I asked immediately.

"I don't know, he didn't mention leaving today last night. But I think he should have gone back to our tribe, he is in Wentian City, and there is nowhere else to go! Doroti replied.

I don't think the priest will go back to their tribe, when he came out with us, he said, "Let's see if we can remove the obstacles."

Now that the "evil obstacle" gathered eight ghosts and appeared in public, trying to change the political trend of country L, even I, a foreigner, still feel very hateful, and Mingluo, as a native of country L, is impossible to turn around and go back without a sound.

But since he is unwilling to contact me, there is no need for me, a Chinese, to meddle in my affairs.

As for McQuay, I don't want to bother anymore.

First of all, my instincts told me that McCware should be safe and sound by now;

Secondly, even if McQuay was really controlled by the gray ghost, anyway, the Ming Luo shaman had already gone to "clear the evil barrier", as long as the "evil barrier" was cleared, McVier would naturally be saved.

In case MINO is not the opponent of the "evil obstacle", then I should be more sensible and hurry back to China, otherwise McCliver is not rescued, and my own life may also be involved.

I thought so much in my heart, but after all, I still didn't want to go.

So I made a few phone calls, and soon found out that there was a guest from Europe named McQuay at another big hotel not far away.

I immediately asked the hotel operator to help me get the phone to McQuay's room.

It's a pity that the phone rang for a long time, and no one answered.

I had to call the front desk of the hotel again and ask the receptionist if I had seen McVier back to the hotel.

Both receptionists said they hadn't noticed McKey coming in and out of the hotel, and McVier hadn't checked out anyway.

I was a little worried, wondering whether to pack my bags and go back to China, or wait for news from Master Mingluo.

Just as he was decided, there was a knock on the door.

I immediately opened the door and saw someone coming, and at the same time I breathed a sigh of relief, a wave of anger rose up, and I wanted to raise my fist and slam the man in the future.

The man was tall and handsome, and it was none other than McQuay.

"What the hell are you doing? Lying in the hospital pretending to be unconscious, not to mention, sneaking into my room in the middle of the night, drawing such a skull on the face mirror, who are you scaring about? ”

It took me a lot of control to resist not yelling directly, but there was inevitably a sense of resentment in my tone.

McQuay pretended to be surprised, and said with a smile: "So you guessed it a long time ago!" ”

"I didn't have already guessed!" I replied to him coldly, holding the door frame with one hand and reluctant to let him into the house, "But I came back from the mountains yesterday and learned that the little nurse you poked down woke up the morning before yesterday, and if I don't understand, then I'm really stupid!" I climbed downstairs from the window on the sixth floor in the middle of the night, and you are not afraid of falling to death! ”

- That's what I thought might be, but I really didn't know why McQuay was doing it, so I wasn't sure.

Sure enough, McQuay smiled and flattered me.

"Don't be so angry, I actually woke up when the doctor gave me first aid! But I want to see how you will react, whether you will leave me and go back to China! I said I wanted to recruit you as a supernatural investigator, so you should take it as an assessment! Don't worry, I will truthfully report to the headquarters, I will not be wrong about you, you will definitely be able to become a colleague with me! ”

He seems to be saying this for my own good!

But I don't want to admit his favor, and to be honest, it's good that some "supernatural" investigator can be a good person, and I won't be disappointed if I can't.

After all, this job is too thrilling, and I'm really afraid that I won't be able to bear it by then.

Still, his flattery dissipated a lot of my resentment.

So I put down my hand blocking the door, turned around and entered the room, and said angrily, "Then you don't have to deliberately draw a skull with blood on my washmirror to scare me, right?" ”

"It's not blood, it's just a red potion that looks like blood! If I don't scare you, how can I know your guts? ”

McQuay grinned and followed me into the house, closing the door with his hand.

I just kept my face tight, and I couldn't help but be secretly shocked in my heart.

I thought I was good at martial arts, and I was awake when I slept, but I didn't expect to be sneaked into the room by McQuay in the middle of the night, and I was delayed in the bathroom for a long time, and I didn't even notice it.

This shows that McQuay is very agile and lightweight, and I am afraid that it is far beyond my ability.

But a question occurred to me.

"How did you open my door?"

Although McQuay can easily open the latch of a rural house, in a large hotel like this, all doors are electronic, and with his ability, it is impossible to use a knife to open the door silently.

"We have a special tool for opening electronic locks, and you will officially join the Occult Investigation Alliance in the future, and these tools will be configured!" McQuay said, reaching out and patting me on the shoulder, "I'm really not wrong, you're not single-handed, you're quick-witted, and you're very bold and courageous!" When other people encounter such a thing, they are afraid that they will leave immediately if they are not scared! But what I didn't expect was that not only did you not leave me and return to China quickly, but you also dared to investigate deeply alone! ”

His compliment made me feel a little more comfortable, so I glanced at him and put away the look of indignation on my face.

"It's not that I have the guts and courage, but that I have agreed to cooperate with you before, which means that you and I have become partners! Besides, you happened in my room again, and we Chinese the most righteous thing,...... You can understand this word as loyalty to a friend or partner, so I can't leave you and go back to China! ”

McQuay nodded again and again and said, "Yes, yes, yes!" From you, I can be regarded as reacquainting myself with you Chinese! ”

I listened to his kind words, and I didn't think much of myself. When he asked me about my trip to the mountain to meet the high priest, I told him honestly.

McQuay was very surprised, and said, "So the one who got on me while I was asleep wasn't that kind of black ghost?" ”

"It's not!" I shook my head, "According to Master Mingluo, that kind of black ghost is the soul of a seriously ill patient summoned by some kind of demonic art, because there is no autonomous consciousness, so it can't even show the facial features, and naturally it is impossible to take the initiative to enter the human body and control the human body!" ”

"Hex?" McQuay raised his eyebrows, "There is still a magic in this world that summons the souls of living people?" It seems that my visit to country L this time is really worth it! ”

"I also find it hard to understand!" I shook my head, really confused, "The existence of ghosts, I have been able to explain it with scientific theories, but this magic ...... Is it too illusory? How is it possible? ”

"You can doubt it, but you can't deny it, after all, these things have happened, right? It is the job of our occult investigators to get to the bottom of the facts and try to explain their raison d'Γͺtre from a scientific point of view! McQuay said, quite seriously.

I didn't care if he was serious or not, I shook my head and said, "That's your duty, I'm not an Occult Coalition investigator yet!" ”

"As I said, I have confidence in you, you can pass the assessment 100% and become one of us!" McQuay said, smiling brightly again.

I didn't want to dwell on that with him, so I quickly changed the subject.

"According to what I'm referring to, that kind of magic needs to be combined with a herb to work, so I think maybe the magic isn't necessarily real, and that herb is the key!"

"Herbs?" McQuay's eyes lit up, "The kind of herb that that that little nurse at the Friendship Hospital tried to pour into me?" ”

"yes?" I glanced at him angrily, "I saw the potion spilled all over the ground, and I thought you woke up just in time for the little nurse to pour you the potion, but after you used the sapphire ring to drive the ghost out of the little nurse, the ghost took advantage of your weakness and entered your body again, causing you to fall unconscious again!" ”

"If I'm not sure that the ghost won't be able to re-enter my body anytime soon, how dare I lie in bed and pretend to be unconscious?"

McQuay smiled and ostentatiously flashed the sapphire ring on his left hand.

"Although the electricity emitted by this ring is very small, when combined with a hidden drug ingredient, it can stimulate the human brain to produce a phenomenon of 'anti-current' that modern science has not yet been able to explain, thus having a strong repulsive effect on foreign brain waves, that is, ghosts and the like! Not only can ghosts and the like possess a human body be expelled from the body, but for at least forty-eight hours, ghosts and the like cannot re-enter the human brain and control the human body! This is the result of countless experiments, and this technology has been at the forefront of global science and technology! ”

I can roughly understand what he said, except for one or two special words, such as "anti-current phenomenon", which I translated literally, and I am not sure if it is accurate.
