Chapter 242 Resonance
The moment the ceremony was completed, Chen Chuan immediately saw that the signs of emptiness on the second me were greatly weakened, indicating that the ceremony was very successful.
But this only temporarily restrains the impact of this thing and cannot last for too long.
Because from this point on, the materials used for painting will continue to be depleted.
If the ghost story encountered before was too weak, then this one is too strong. If you want to restrain it for a long time, you have to keep investing materials without special esoteric ritual tools.
Not to mention whether he can find so many materials, even if he can, he does not have the financial resources to do such a thing, so if possible, he must find a way to weaken or dispose of it as much as possible as soon as possible.
If there is really no other way, then you can only give up.
He has done what he can. He doesn't mind helping others if he is able to do so, but he will not help without limits.
He packed up his things, came out from the backyard, picked up Brother Chong's body, and returned to the outskirts of the shantytown.
Many people around hurriedly ran into the shed after feeling that the uncomfortable feeling had disappeared. A young man passed by Chen Chuan and handed him a bottle of cheap bottled water.
Chen Chuan didn't object and took it with a thank you.
Old Qi was sitting in the car at the moment, dozing off repeatedly. He had been tempted to smoke a few times to stay awake, but he had quit smoking since he had a daughter. Then he saw Chen Chuan coming out, took one look at Brother Chong's body, and said in surprise, "Brother Chong? Brother Chen, who did this?"
Chen Chuan put the body down and said, "After we left, someone must have come again and killed Xiaoman. They were the ones who caused what happened later."
"Fuck!" Lao Qi couldn't help but swear.
Chen Chuanshuo said: "The ritual I set up can only last for one or two days at most. It is difficult to completely resolve it, but it is still possible to weaken the constraints of this ghost story within a small area, provided that the murderer is found and dealt with.
However, when I arrived, everyone around me was either unconscious or dead. I need to find someone who was nearby to ask about the situation."
Old Qi looked at Brother Chong's corpse and said, "Brother Chen, I know someone who might be able to find the answer from Brother Chong's implanted body."
After hearing what he said, Chen Chuan couldn't help but ask, "Is the person you know a resonance person?"
Lao Qi nodded.
Resonators, also known as mystics, are people who, through special brain and neural implants, can interfere with and disrupt the information exchange between other worlds and the surrounding biological fields.
Some skilled people among them can even steal information within the realm, and even cause other people's internal implants to misjudge external stimuli and react incorrectly.
This group of individuals was originally trained by government departments and companies to steal information from competitors. As technology became more widespread and these individuals became more numerous, they spread to society. Today, many organizations employ these individuals to prevent others from stealing and harming their information.
When Chen Chuan was browsing the news, he was reminded not to communicate with strangers casually to avoid having his information stolen or his credentials destroyed by those who resonated with him.
He said, "Are you sure?"
Lao Qi said: "I think it should be fine."
Chen Chuanshuo said: "Then give it a try."
Lao Qi nodded and said, "I'll contact him." He pressed his hand to his neck, an orange light flashing in one eye. After a moment, he said, "He's there. Shall we go over there?"
Chen Chuan said, "I'm leaving now."
The two men immediately got in the car, left the place, turned onto the street, and drove quickly for more than an hour before arriving at the bottom of a high-end apartment building.
After making contact, I entered the apartment through strict security, took the stairs up to seven floors, and when I reached the door of the room, it was opened from the inside.
The person who opened the door was a fat man with slightly curly hair, a chubby body, and a white double chin. He was holding a cup of hot drink that exuded a fragrant aroma, and he waved at the two of them in a friendly manner.
Lao Qi said, "Brother Chen, this is Brother Wubei Wu, not much older than you. He's a Resonator employed by our Tongxing Entrusted Company. He's a nice, enthusiastic guy, and he's always willing to help anyone in need."
Wu Bei felt a little embarrassed by what he said. He moved his bloated body and said, "Come in, come in."
After the two people came in, Lao Qi knew that time was tight, so he didn't beat around the bush and directly explained the situation.
Wu Bei asked quietly, "Did you bring the body?"
Lao Qi said: "It's in my car."
"Okay, let me take a look..."
Wu Bei closed his eyes. Chen Chuan noticed that his neck, the back of his head and the area under his skin began to glitter slightly. That should be the surface of the implanted skin covering the implant underneath.
"Well……"
After watching for a while, he suddenly covered his neck, seemed to be unable to breathe, his face turned red, and he was a little unsteady.
Chen Chuan stretched out a hand and lifted his arm, easily holding his body weighing over 300 pounds.
Wu Bei gasped for breath and it took him a while to recover. He looked at Chen Chuan gratefully and said, "I'll pass it on to you right away..."
Lao Qi immediately said, "I don't need..." But before he could finish his words, an extremely shocking scene had already been implanted in his mind.
He saw "himself" sitting in the shed, talking to Xiaoman, and vaguely heard words such as "your brother...", "sewer hunter", and "human organ trafficking".
Then the door was kicked open and a gloomy-faced man rushed out. He pushed Xiaoman away and started fighting with the man. They started to fight back and forth. Even though the man was holding a knife, he relied on his implanted arm to block it. Xiaoman also took the time to shoot at the man, but missed.
But after a while, "my" arm suddenly stiffened, and the muscle contraction failed to move, causing me to fall forward a step.
The opponent stabbed a knife into his abdomen, twisted it hard, pulled it out, and then wiped it across "his" neck. He immediately felt a chill in his throat.
As "I" fell, I grabbed the blade and heard a gunshot in the blur.
The scene immediately fell into darkness.
Lao Qi's face turned pale for a moment. What was conveyed to him were not just simple images. They also brought with them the remaining memories, emotions and even pain of Brother Chong. It was as if he was experiencing the slaughter himself.
He was also gasping for breath, supporting his knees with his hands. After he recovered, he couldn't help but look up and glare at Wu Bei.
Wu Bei also knew that he seemed to have done something wrong, and felt a little embarrassed. He scratched his head and said, "I'm sorry, Uncle Qi, I didn't mean it." He looked at Chen Chuan again.
In comparison, Chen Chuan remained calm, seemingly unaffected by anything. Wu Bei opened his eyes wide, "Brother Chen, didn't you see that?"
Chen Chuanshuo said, "I saw it, Brother Wu, can you find out the identity of this person?"
Wu Bei replied, "Yes, wait a moment."
Even if the other party is a citizen, as long as you know what that person looks like, you can find out that person's information through the official inactive consciousness.
Soon, he said, "Found it, Bochen...the client..." He followed the information exchanged at the scene and traced it back to the car, "Citizen Lang Teng...the client...and another one...eh..."
He suddenly tilted his head, the light under his skin flickered, and he said with some lingering fear: "It's okay, it's okay..."
He said to the two of them, "The last person's biofield was erased. I wanted to track it down, and I almost touched the field feedback left by that person. I was almost discovered. That person should also be a resonator."
Chen Chuan asked: "Are they the client? Which company do they belong to?"
Wu Bei shook his head and said, "They are not from any commissioned company. They belong to a commissioned team called Jinxia."
When Lao Qi heard the name, his face changed and he murmured, "I should have thought of it earlier."
Chen Chuan looked over and asked, "Old Qi, do you know him?"
"Brother Chen, remember I told you about the group that always handles abnormal commissions? That's them!" Lao Qi thought for a moment, "But this is too coincidental. There must be a reason."
He checked with the boundary certificate and found that the abnormal order was now shown as completed. He checked again and found that there was a cancellation status before that. The reason for the cancellation was: "The order has been completed and the order deposit is required to be refunded."
“No wonder…”
Lao Qi shook his head and looked up, saying, "I told them not to ask for the deposit back. It would cause trouble. Once you request a cancellation, the deposit will be frozen after one day pending confirmation. If you confirm it again the next day, you can withdraw most of the fees except the platform fee."
He said with disgust, "But the Jinxia gang is not honest. Once they put it on the entrustment platform, they probably treat it as their own money. It's okay if they don't withdraw it. If they withdraw it, it will definitely attract their attention."
Chen Chuan thought about it and thought that this incident was most likely because this action attracted the attention of the team, so they sent people to kill Xiaoman.
I'm afraid that in the eyes of these people, this was just a matter of killing someone in passing, and Brother Chong happened to be with Xiaoman at the time, so he was killed together.
So the next step is to find the Golden Shrimp commissioning team.
He said to Wu Bei, "Thank you, Brother Wu."
"Oh, you're welcome."
Chen Chuanshuo said, "Sorry to bother you. We'll be leaving first. Lao Qi, let's go."
Wu Bei wanted to say something but stopped himself. In the end, he scratched his head and said nothing. He sent the two of them out.
After they got outside, Lao Qi asked, "Brother Chen, what should we do next?"
Chen Chuan straightened his collar, quickened his pace, and said, "Old Qi, go back first. I'll go deal with the guy who did it."
"But Brother Chen, that's a commissioned team. They will definitely join forces to deal with you. Jin Xia's gang has strong subordinates. They not only have fighters, but may also have guns..." Lao Qi hurriedly caught up and reminded him anxiously.
Chen Chuan paused and turned his head. "If that's the case..." he said calmly, "Then let's get rid of it all together." After that, he walked out.
