Chapter 36: The Mind Eater

Wang Hongwei boarded the chat software on the computer desktop and directly videoed Uncle Fat, wanting to know about the situation.

After a while, it was only a few tens of seconds, the video was connected, there were two videos on the right side of the chat box, one large and one small, and the small video in the lower right corner was the camera, illuminating Wang Hongwei's image, with Wang Hongwei's upper body and the scene in the room behind him.

In the big video, there is an uncle's face, who looks a little fat and a little middle-aged.

With short hair, black and white hair, and a dense beard on his chin, he shouldn't have cleaned his beard for a few days, and he looks like a middle-aged man with a lot of stories.

If you change out of casual clothes, clean up your beard, tidy up your head, and put on a set of suits and shoes, you will definitely look like a business owner with a successful career and a happy family.

In the video, the fat uncle is wearing glasses, lowering his head, looking at the book in his hand, the book is very thick, and there are two stacks of equally thick books next to it, each of which is about the same thickness as the Xinhua dictionary.

"Yo! Fat uncle, you're still busy! Wang Hongwei picked up the beer and saluted the fat uncle through the video.

When the fat uncle heard this, he raised his head from the world in the book, took off the eyes on the bridge of his nose, closed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose with his fingers, relieving the fatigue of his eyes.

It took a few seconds to open his eyes, and at first glance, he saw Wang Hongwei holding a beer and drinking it in his mouth, and his eyebrows not only jumped: "You stinky boy." ”

As he spoke, the fat uncle looked at the beer in Wang Hongwei's hand through the video, and felt a little dry and itchy in his throat: "I'll teach you a lesson." ”

Saying that, the fat uncle got up and disappeared from the video, and after a while, he walked back with a bottle of beer in his hand, and the bottle driver opened the wine and took a sip, with a very enjoyable expression.

"How's the investigation today, did you find that 'thing'!?" The fat uncle looked at the unfamiliar background behind Wang Hongwei and knew that he was not in his house.

And the extent of Wang Hongwei's house, it is very difficult to go out of the house 365 days a year, it must be in the hotel in the city where the crime occurred, and the information given to him in the morning is now midnight, which means that he has been investigating for a day.

"Fortunately, it's a bit messy, and I haven't found anyone who should be 'something' yet, and I'm going to check it out tomorrow." Wang Hongwei shrugged when he heard this, took a sip of beer, pulled out a bag of snacks from the table, tore it open and ate it.

"Fat uncle, did you find anything over there? I looked at this mess and couldn't figure out what kind of 'thing' it was, what kind of creature it was. As he spoke, Wang Hongwei put the snacks aside, wiped the oil on his hands, reached out and picked up the two file books on the side, and looked at them.

Wang Hongwei has also hunted demons many times, not only after he was alone at the age of eighteen, but also in the past two years of demon hunting career so far.

Before the age of eighteen, after Wang Hongwei's family disappeared, he was raised by Uncle Fat, who would also take him to hunt demons, and he had seen a lot of those 'things', and he knew a lot of them.

However, in this case, he really hasn't seen this 'thing' of the crime.

"Well, this 'thing' is very little information, it is a very, very rare creature, it is on the verge of extinction, no! It should be said that it is an extinct creature, and I checked a lot of information before I found a little information. The fat uncle said and took a sip of beer.

Wang Hongwei was stunned when he heard this: "Huh!? You say this thing looks like... Is something like a panda such a rare creature!? I didn't know how to describe it for a while, so Wang Hongwei had to use a panda to describe it.

"Nope! To be precise, it is even rarer than pandas, and in the past two hundred years, there has been no information on this creature, and the closest document to this creature is in a book two hundred and forty years ago. As he spoke, the fat uncle put the beer aside.

Turning his head to look at the two stacks of tall books stacked next to him, his eyes watching, his hands rubbing against the backs of his hands, searching for the book.

"Hah! Got it! Uncle Fat pulled the book out of it.

'Boom!! With a bang, because they were not properly drawn, all the books on them fell and hit the books next to them, and all the stacks fell over, most of them fell to the ground, and some of them were scattered on the table.

"Whew! It's dangerous. When the fat uncle was pouring the book, he was very witty, and hurriedly stretched out his free hand and grabbed the beer on the table in his hand, without knocking the beer down.

I saw the fat uncle, who didn't care about the books scattered all over the place, but put the beer aside, and then opened the culprit in his hand, and the book as thick as a Xinhua dictionary was pulled out of it.

"Hmmm! Over here. The fat uncle flipped through the page with the bookmark, looked at that page, and found the content of the thing.

"They're very evil, they're very powerful, they're incredibly powerful, and all creatures that see them are terrified by their gestures, but they're very good at camouflage." Talking about the fat uncle, he turned the page.

He continued: "They eat the same grains as humans, but where the soul of man resides, is the source of their strength, and is also their favorite food, for them, it is more delicious than all the delicacies of the world." ”

Speaking of this, the fat uncle paused, afraid that Wang Hongwei would not understand, and explained to him: "In the past, people believed that the human soul was in the heart, so the 'place where the human soul is' here refers to the heart, not the brain. ”

"yes, I see." Wang Hongwei nodded and took a sip of beer.

Seeing that Wang Hongwei understood, the fat uncle continued to look at the book and said: "They have many names, soul hunters, heart demons, heart-digging beasts, etc... But the most commonly called name is called - Mind Eater. ”

"Mind Eater, quite an image, a demon that devours hearts." When Wang Hongwei heard this, he shrugged his shoulders.

"I've found these clues for the time being, and I know that this monster is called the Mind Eater, and the other things haven't been found out yet, so I don't know the specific situation of this Mind Eater." The fat uncle closed the book and took a sip of beer to moisten his throat.

"Although this Mind Eater has not appeared for hundreds of years, and there is very little information about them, there are still records of literature, and some clues have been found." After a pause, the fat uncle thought about it in his heart.

"I guess I'll be able to find some specific information almost tomorrow." The fat uncle drank beer and said to Wang Hongwei.

"That's right, tomorrow I'll go to the victim's place to find out the situation, and it would be great if I could find the Mind Eater." Wang Hongwei smiled, raised the beer and saluted the fat uncle through the video, and raised his head to take a sip.

"Although there is no specific information, but through this content, it can also be seen that this mind eater is not ordinary, you had better put on your weapon tomorrow, if you die, you have been raised for so many years." The fat uncle glared at Wang Hongwei, who had a hippie smile.

"Yes ~ Yes ~ I know, you can rest assured." Wang Hongwei waved his hand when he heard this, saying that he didn't have to worry, he was very confident in his skills.

"You kid looks like his wings have grown stiff, come back that day and let me try a few pounds and taels of you." The fat uncle looked at Wang Hongwei's perfunctory appearance, couldn't help but narrow his eyes, and said deeply.

"Uh..." Wang Hongwei was shocked when he heard this, every time he went to Uncle Fat's house, he would definitely be practiced, the two of them fought, Wang Hongwei wanted to really beat Uncle Fat at all, every time he was beaten by Uncle Fat, and then it was hellish training, I couldn't help but chill when I thought about it.

"Hmph." When the fat uncle saw Wang Hongwei's appearance, he knew what he was thinking, and leaned back in the chair proudly, drinking beer.

At this time, Wang Hongwei inadvertently saw the fat uncle's half-gray hair, which was so obvious under the illumination of the light, and his eyes couldn't help but flash with heartache.

"Fat uncle, go to bed early when it's dark, don't worry about the case or anything."

"Huh!?" The fat uncle who was drinking was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Wang Hongwei in the video, and the fat uncle's eyes showed a complicated light, some were relieved, some were happy, some were down, but more of them sighed something.

As if sighing, a chick finally spreads its wings and flies freely; It seems to sigh again, the years have flown by, and the crying child has now become a big man who stands up to the sky.
