Chapter 1158 Wang Tanzhi's trip to the warehouse (2)
"So what happened after you finished dripping blood?" Feng Bujue asked.
"I heard the sound of water," Wang Tanzhi replied.
"Don't tell me that it was the sound of you or someone else being frightened to pee," Brother Jue continued.
"Of course not." Xiao sighed, "What I heard was a sound similar to the flow of river water."
"Santuchuan? Huangquan? Styx River?" Bao Qing asked three questions in succession.
"I don't know about that." Xiaotan shrugged, "But I know that in many religions and myths and legends, the passages connecting the human world and the underworld are described as rivers. I think that was the river I heard at that time.
the sound of."
"Then what happened after hearing the sound?" Feng Bujue asked again.
"I also saw a lot of fragments, a lot of memory fragments that don't belong to me." When Xiao Tan said this, he couldn't help but frown slightly, "Most of them are death-related scenes, such as the memory before being murdered, or being killed by a train.
The scene just before being crushed to death.”
"It didn't cause any mental pollution to you, right?" Feng Bujue looked at his expression and asked out of concern.
"Uh," Xiao Tan replied, "It really doesn't matter because those clips are just visual and auditory memories. To me, it's like watching a bunch of unrelated horror movie clips. In comparison,
Some of the scripts in Horrorland are much scarier than this.”
"Oh" Brother Jue heard this and responded with relief.
At this moment, Mr. Bao complained very sharply from the side: "Well, the moment you said "I really don't have these four words", I thought the second half of your sentence would mean that my spirit has long been destroyed by Brother Jue.
It’s been tainted by super-polluted sources, so we’ve lost touch with fragments of this magnitude.”
"Hahaha" Xiao Tan laughed heartily after hearing this, "Don't tell me yet, this is also possible."
"Hey, what's so exciting about this?" Feng Bujue continued with empty eyes, "Also," he turned to look at Bao Qing, "What is a super polluter? What is your definition?"
"It was defined by an expert who has provided psychological counseling to me since I was a child." Bao Qing replied.
"Which expert? Tell me your name." Feng Bujue said immediately.
"For his and hers' safety, I think it's better never to let you know his name." Bao Qing said, tilting his head to avoid Brother Jue's sight, and said to Xiao Tan, "Come on, let's talk about the fragment.
thing"
"There's nothing to say." Xiaotan continued, "The test will be over after that."
"Ah?" Bao Qing asked doubtfully, "That's it?"
"Yeah, that's it." Xiao Tan replied.
"Then what is the significance of this test?" Feng Bujue also asked.
"The purpose of the test is to know how the scales will react when they come into contact with my blood." Xiao Tan responded, "They have naturally completed other tests long ago, such as what will happen when ordinary people's blood comes into contact with scales, and what will happen to their psychic abilities?
What will happen if the patient's blood comes into contact with the scales, what will happen if you hold the scales in your hands and meditate, what will happen if you stay with the scales for a long time, etc." He paused for half a second and then said, "And I am a special case, Gu Ke
I felt that my blood might trigger different changes, so I just arranged this test."
"But the result is nothing special?" Bao Qing continued.
"Well, at least they told me not." Xiao Tan replied.
"That's strange," Bao Qing said while touching his chin. "Since nothing abnormal happened during the test, how did the subsequent accident happen?"
"Oh, that one," Xiao Tan responded calmly, "The thing is like this. After I completed the test, I returned the same way under the leadership of Agent Zhang. We didn't know at the time that when I passed by for the first time
When I was in the fourth containment area, a certain psychic sensor on the upper shelf had already reacted. Therefore, when I passed by this place for the second time, the object fell off the shelf due to the gravitational force generated by me. Fortunately,
Yes, the thing itself was harmless, but when it fell, it happened to hit the prank mirror placed under the shelf. After the mirror turned around, the cloth covering it slipped off, just as the mirror was about to shine on me.
At that moment, Uncle Zhang Zhiang quickly turned around and knocked me down without exposing me to the mirror, but "
"But, he himself was photographed." Hearing this, Bao Qing already understood what was going on.
"So what if it's taken?" But Feng Bujue didn't understand yet, so he continued to ask.
"If someone is photographed, the guy in the mirror will transform into that person and escape from the mirror," Bao Qing said, "and start playing pranks."
"It sounds like that guy is a goblin or something?" Feng Bujue asked.
"It shouldn't be described as a hysterical and extremely cunning monster." Judging from Bao Qing's expression when he said this, he obviously had a story, "The monster in the mirror is like the embodiment of pranks.
It is a manifestation. It is purely to tease people. From its perspective, there is nothing that cannot be used to play pranks. It has no concept of words such as consequences, responsibility, and guilt. Although it itself
It doesn't have any destructive capabilities, but you can imagine what a terrible chain reaction it would cause if it were allowed to move freely in a place like a warehouse."
"Eh? Mr. Bao, have you ever worked in a warehouse?" Xiaotan asked immediately, "Listening to your tone, it sounds like you have dealt with this mirror."
"That's because I was involved in the entire process of containing this object a few years ago." Bao Qing explained, "That day, Corey got a piece of news: a man who attempted suicide claimed that there was someone exactly like him.
People are pretending to be him and ruining his life, and no matter how he explains it, no one around him believes what he says.
"This case quickly attracted our attention, so several detectives and I rushed to the police station to investigate. After confirming that the man was not insane and was not lying, we took him away and conducted a more detailed investigation.
ask.
"Subsequently, I joined the action team and went directly to the man's house to investigate and discovered the existence of the prank mirror.
"We later learned that he found this mirror from a second-hand store that was on clearance. He saw that the mirror had a strange shape. Although the frame was old, the mirror surface was still clear, so he thought it was a valuable antique after some haggling.
, he bought the mirror back home.
"Who would have thought that what he brought home was essentially a horrific disaster."
When Feng Bujue heard this, he couldn't help but wonder: "Then how did you contain this mirror and the monster hidden in the mirror?"
"Well, let's talk about it carefully." Bao Qing thought, "It's really difficult to catch that monster because it has the ability to move instantly within a short distance. In addition, it also has a certain ability to read minds.
That means it can know what you're thinking when you're near it."
"Haha, it's very convenient to carry out pranks," Brother Jue said with a smile.
"Fortunately, this guy also has weaknesses." Bao Qing did not answer his words and continued, "In fact, the various characteristics of this monster are written on the frame of the mirror. But because it is in an ancient script,
It’s impossible for ordinary people to understand it.”
"But you are not ordinary people." Feng Bujue continued.
"Yes, we are not." Bao Qing replied, "So, after we took a photo of the text on the frame and sent it back to Corey, someone fed back the translation in less than ten minutes." He took a sip of tea and
Then, "As for the conditions for this prank monster to come out of the mirror, the frame only gave a rough outline, but later we obtained more detailed data through experiments. Its basic triggering condition is that a human appears in front of the mirror, even if it is zero.
Just click zero for one second. As for the limit of this appearance, we also tested it later. If the head is illuminated, it will be triggered immediately. The parts other than the head need to be 60 on the two-dimensional level.
It will only be triggered if the above body area is reflected in the mirror."
"Oh, it's just like when Agent Zhang knocked me down, but my back flashed in front of the mirror and I was hit." Xiao Tan responded.
Bao Qing nodded and said: "The way to put the monster back is to let the person who released it appear in the mirror with him. At that moment, the mischievous monster will show its original shape, be sucked into the mirror and appear in the mirror.
It couldn't come out for the next six minutes."
"Wait a minute," Feng Bujue said, "Isn't this guy able to teleport and read minds? Then how do you achieve the above conditions?"
"This is about talking about its weaknesses." Bao Qing said this with a noncommittal expression, "The monster living in the prank mirror has two weaknesses. One of them is that the straight-line distance between it and the mirror cannot exceed six meters.
Two out of one thousand six hundred and sixty-six meters. I don’t know why, but if there’s peanut butter on the mirror, it has to come back immediately and lick the mirror clean.”
"Huh?" Feng Bujue wanted to complain when he heard the first weakness, but he held it back. However, when he heard the second weakness, he suddenly realized that the previous one was quite normal, "Uh, why?
The peanut butter part brought some weird images to my mind."
"I think it's because the world inside your head is too dirty." Bao Qing continued calmly, "After that, we transported the mirror to a place where there was basically no hiding place within a few kilometers, and recorded the victim's eyes.
Covered it, brought it to the mirror, used peanut butter to achieve the sealing conditions, then covered the mirror and contained it."
"Is it really okay for you to just cover something so dangerous with a piece of cloth?" After hearing this, Feng Bujue immediately raised the question.
"Do you think we want to do this?" Bao Qing replied, "Experiments have proven that, except for linen, all coverings exposed in front of the mirror will be corroded, and the corrosion cycle is elusive. The same material can sometimes block the mirror for a week.
, sometimes it can only block for a few minutes. In addition, fixing the cloth to the mirror with ropes, tapes, or the like, or wrapping the mirror directly in an oversized cloth will trigger the corrosion effect, even if we use linen.
.”
"Oh, so." Feng Bujue continued, "Isn't it okay to cover this mirror and put it into a closed space?"
"Yes." Bao Qing continued, "We have tried covering it, putting it in a separate room, covering it and putting it in a large cabinet or box, and even tried putting it in colored ice cubes, but nothing happened.
, if you do this for more than ten seconds, the mirror will teleport out of the closed space on its own and appear in a random area nearby." He paused and showed a helpless expression, "Also, put it there.
It doesn't work in an uninhabited wasteland. It will teleport when there are no humans or other things around it. The time and distance of the teleportation depend on the openness around it.
"Countless experiments have proven that only by stacking this thing with other furniture and sundries and covering it with linen to ensure that there are often human activities around it can it be maintained in a relatively stable state.
.”
"I also have a question." At this time, Xiao Tan raised his right hand and asked like a child asking questions in class, "Have you tried destroying this thing? For example, breaking the mirror, melting it, etc."
"We tried it." Bao Qing replied, "For the first destruction experiment, we took a hammer and swung the mirror, and only a small crack was left. At the same moment, or at the same second, something suddenly happened in southern Wales.
"A magnitude 6 earthquake." He paused for a second, "The second time, we changed positions and took a chisel, and then South Africa had another earthquake. Please note, these two things happened on the same day.
.”
"I'll go." Feng Bujue was shocked when he heard this, "This thing is going to defy the heavens."
"After that, we have not made any similar attempts." Bao Qing said, "If we melt the mirror and cause the volcano under Yellowstone Park to erupt, it will not be easy to deal with."
"Yeah, that's it." Brother Jue responded, and then looked at Xiaotan, "Huh? So the day you went to the warehouse, it ended with Agent Zhang smearing peanut butter on the mirror?"
"No." Xiaotan shook his head.
"What?" This time, Bao Qing was shocked, "No?"
"Ah" Xiaotan looked at Bao Qing and said, "The detailed characteristics of the mirror you just mentioned are the first time I have heard of them."
"Then how did you shut the monster back into the mirror?" Bao Qing asked nervously.
"Well, that's it." Xiaotan replied calmly, "That day, after the mirror was shown, I was confused for a long time.
"First I saw a man who looked exactly like Agent Zhang running out of the mirror, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Then I heard various alarms blaring in the warehouse, and the staff were in a mess.
"Anyway, five minutes after the alarm went off, I was taken to a secure room, where the agents asked me to wait there and not move, and then they went out.
"As a result, as soon as they walked out of the room, I found that another agent Zhang had appeared beside me at some point. I saw him squatting on the ground and quietly tying the laces of my two shoes together."
When Xiao Tan said this, he chuckled: "So I asked him if you could stop. Unexpectedly, he looked at me for two seconds, said yes, and immediately stood up, looking nervous and staring at me respectfully.
Look. When I saw that he seemed to listen to me, I tried to ask again, "Can you go back into the mirror and don't come out for a while?" He looked sad, said "Okay," and then disappeared."
When he said this, Feng Bujue and Master Bao both realized that this situation must be related to Wang Tanzhi's psychic ability or bloodline.
But Xiaotan still didn't seem to understand the problem: "Now that I think about it, maybe you all misunderstood that prank monster. Maybe it is quite easy to talk to?" To be continued.
