244. When things go wrong, there must be demons
When Joe woke up, she saw a ceiling she didn't recognize.
"Oh, I'm already on the island, that's fine."
Qiao Du sat up, and a large amount of knowledge suddenly flowed into his mind.
It's the database content that Ah Xin obtained all night with the body of the little witch last night.
The database of each Chosen One is a treasure trove and a gathering place of pollution, and with the exception of memetic anomalies that can lead to contamination just by knowing, ordinary anomalies are more or less polluted.
The level of the little witch is not high, that is, a B-level investigator, and the information that can be found is limited, but even so, Qiao Du still gained a lot.
"It turns out that there is still such a thing on Wajima, no wonder."
Qiao Du simply read the information investigated by Ah Xin in his mind and sighed with emotion.
As everyone knows.
Anomalies cannot be destroyed, they cannot be destroyed, they only operate according to certain rules, and regardless of their manifestation, all anomalies have the same underlying rule, which is the rules of depth.
Anomalies can only affect the existence of the depth they are in.
The deeper the depth, the more polluted the anomaly and the more abstract and dangerous the anomaly becomes.
From ancient times to the present, many anomalous depths have become very shallow, anchored by word of mouth.
In many organizations of the Chosen One, researchers agree that there was a time when there was a so-called "god walking the earth", which in some civilizations is called the Golden Age, or the Age of the Gods.
In any case, in the ancient history of mankind, there must have been a period when the anomaly ravaged the earth, and may even have affected the shallow.
Those anomalies were called "gods" by the ignorant human civilization at the time, and various myths and legends were used as tools to anchor them.
In modern times, there are few anomalies that can have that kind of "god" influence.
Available on and islands, there is a similar existence.
In the legend of Wajima, there are eight million gods, and the hundred ghosts walk at night, and these are actually the deep anomalies anchored by the predecessor of Wajima culture, the island Taisha Shrine, by special means.
Through a technique called Divine Descent, these anomalies can be used to temporarily descend on shrine maidens to combat other anomalies, and most of the contamination they bring does not remain in the shrine maidens' bodies, but instead exists in the form of a spider web attached.
Of course, this technique has a drawback, that is, it can only be used on the mainland of Wajima.
Because of this, the depth of pollution in this area of Hedao Island has a peculiar nature, with deep and shallow layers often intersecting, which also leads to frequent natural disasters in this area.
It's no wonder that the Wasteland Group is using this as their anomalous dumping ground.
After all, if something really goes wrong, and the Waste Capital Group directly sinks the entire island of Hedao and drags it into the abyss, then all the troubles will be solved.
Qiao Du found that the strange anomalies he saw yesterday were actually dealt with by Hedao's special methods, and here, those anomalies are called monsters.
It is said that many years ago, there was a painter named Toriyama Shiyan, who, as the chosen one, drew a nocturnal diagram of a hundred ghosts to anchor these anomalies, reducing them from a special abstract concept to a concrete monster, of course, this is just a legend, maybe even this thing has been anchored several times before it became the current version.
As for the crisis that Kazushima is experiencing now.
Even if it's the permission of the little witch, you can't get a glimpse of the whole picture.
Qiao Du can only know that the shelter of Hedao Culture in Ukiyo Mountain had an accident of containment failure due to natural disasters a few years ago, and then the entire shelter was closed, and it was not re-investigated until recently, as for the specific investigation report, ordinary investigators could not view it.
Thinking of the pollution outflow from the Ukiyo Mountain that he had seen before, like a feast of crows, Qiao Du estimated that nine times out of ten it was the core of the problem.
So here's the problem.
Qiao Du felt that if a normal person encountered an anomaly in the shelter and something went wrong, he would definitely find someone else to help, just like Chernobyl, who had also found observers from various forces to come over, so why should he hide with the island.
When things go wrong, there must be demons.
"I'm hungry."
As the saying goes, if you don't work actively, you have a problem with your brain.
Qiao Du opened the refrigerator, there were some rice balls and bento boxes in it, he took out two at random, threw them in the microwave oven and turned around, accompanied by cold oolong tea, and ate them with a plop.
Picking up the phone Mochizuki gave him, Qiao Twilight dialed the number stored inside.
"Hey, are you up?"
He greeted him like an old friend.
"Mr. Silverfinch, you woke up so early."
Mochizuki seems to be outside, and he can hear the sound of the street.
"I'm just going to look for you, please clean up first, I'll be there in about thirty minutes."
He said to Qiao Dui.
"Okay."
Qiao Du hung up.
As a social phobia, he has a strong aversion to calling and answering the phone.
After changing her clothes, Qiao Du closed her eyes.
"Hey, little witch, are you up?"
He calls the little witch through Ah Xin.
No response.
Qiao Dui screamed again.
"It's noisy!"
There was an impatient protest from the little witch's side.
It's quite heavy to get up.
"I'm going to go out with that Mochizuki now, do you have any information on Ukiyo-e Mountain over there, the kind that people with a higher level than you can view."
"What do you want that for?"
In another corner of the city, the little witch propped up her body from the soft bed, and her pajamas drooped down, so to speak, her old shoulders were slippery.
Only then did she see that her computer was not turned off, and her little brain was spinning rapidly.
"You used my body to check the database last night?"
The little witch immediately climbed out of bed and looked at the computer screen, only then did she feel a little sore in her hands, as if she had been busy all night.
"Don't worry, your brain is asleep, as for the body, just get used to it."
Ah Xin immediately explained.
After being possessed by her, her physical fitness will be more or less better, as long as the brain is rested, there is no problem with the body for a few days all night.
"What is the meaning of getting used to it"
The little witch moved her shoulders and sat down.
"The shelter in Ukiyo Mountain is closed, and the contamination in it should have been sealed with strict measures, but I don't know why it has been in a semi-leaking state, you should know all this, what information do you want over there?"
"I think there's something else over there besides containing the anomalies thrown by the Wasteland Group."
Qiao Du said through Ah Xin.
If there's anything that can cause you to be in danger and don't want to call the police, it's because you're a wanted criminal.
After encountering problems in their own shelter, Wajima Culture did not turn to other Chosen Ones, but continued to conceal the true situation, 100% because there were still some things in that shelter that could not be discovered by other Chosen ones.
Only by knowing what exactly is in that shelter and what research has been done can it be possible to solve the fundamental problems of the current and the island.
"I see, I'll go and ask my superiors."
The little witch pursed her lips.
On the other side, Qiao Du had just cut off contact when there was a knock on the door.
