When Tang Aibai detained the criminals in a chain at the headquarters, he did not expect to get much information from their confessions.
"Superpower sects often use compulsory contracts to control their members. Once they reveal internal secrets, they will be killed immediately," he explained to Yun Jian, "So when interrogating sect members, you must be more circuitous and skillful. This course will be added to your training content later. For now, just watch from the side."
The cat's ears moved slightly. Yun Jian, who was sitting with Peng Hua and eating biscuits, raised his head. He had not yet recovered from the tense night patrol and nodded dazedly.
He was doing two things at once. His main body got up, washed, ate, and prepared to go to school, while the tabby cat yawned and followed Tang Aibai, ready to watch their routine interrogation.
He had been spending the past few days in the training room learning fighting skills, and Sufang City had been peaceful. His contact with the criminals detained in the Twenty-Eight Mansions was limited to a quick glance when he passed by outside the special glass. This was the first time he entered through the main door of the detention room and took the criminal wearing handcuffs that suppressed his super powers into the interrogation room.
These criminals had already been frightened by the throwing and catching at the edge of the cliff. Their legs went weak when they saw Yun Jian. Yun Jian led them out of the door almost like carrying vegetables in the market - a 1.7-meter-tall round-faced boy raised his hands and pulled several 1.9-meter-tall dark-faced burly men. The strange visual effect made the people sitting upright in the detention room cover their mouths and try hard to hold back their laughter.
"No, don't kill me," the first criminal brought into the interrogation room begged with trembling legs and tears streaming down his face, "I don't want to be fed to rats, I don't want to be a human pig pillar, and I don't want to be drained of my blood to be used as the source of a magic circle..."
Yun Jian was scratching his head, wondering why this criminal had such a vivid imagination and the tone of his description of the methods of punishment was as if he had seen them with his own eyes. From the corner of his eye he saw Tang Aibai and Qiao Liang looking at each other, and their faces suddenly became serious. Then he suddenly realized that what this guy was talking about was most likely the evil things that the Super Power Sect had done.
The more the criminal spoke, the more frightened he became. The more frightened he became, the more he couldn't stop. He talked tremblingly for most of the day, until his face was gradually covered by a layer of rock and cracked from the corners of his lips. Only then was Tang Aibai called him to stop. He was silent for a moment, until the rock on his face fell off and his flesh color returned to normal, then he started asking questions again.
Yun Jian, who was standing behind, was distracted.
...
...
The cat toy was calling him happily in his mind, and its tone was full of surprise.
[Yun Jian, I have seen this spell before!]
Knowing that Yun Jian was currently unable to communicate with him, Cat Toy continued to talk incessantly.
[This is not a spell to enforce a contract. This is a spell created by the Cat God to protect the fry in the fish pond. The Cat God's residence in the spirit world is too dense with immortal energy. The fish caught will become spirits after a few days. In order to eat fish with peace of mind, the great Cat God spent ten minutes of his precious time to create this spell. As long as the fish he caught, it will be considered as the Cat God's property by default and cannot absorb immortal energy.]
Yun Jian: “…”
There were so many loopholes in this story that Yun Jian couldn't even think of where to start. He paused for a moment, unable to speak in the prison room, so he simply asked the cat toy from his real body sitting in the classroom: "So can this fish fry protection spell be solved?"
[sure! ]
CatToy answered.
[Whenever the Cat God sends a gift to other gods, he must first remove the fish fry protection spell. Otherwise, when the fish arrives at the other god's residence, it will violate the requirements of the 'Cat God's fish' and can only become an ugly stone fish statue.]
Yun Jian quickly asked: "How should we solve this problem?"
Cat Toy ugh.
[I have only seen the Cat God undo a spell once. Wait for me to recall it carefully.]
"Didn't you say that the Cat God has to unwrap every gift he gives?" Yun Jian asked puzzledly, "Why have you only seen it once?"
[…Of course it’s because the Cat God has only given one gift to one god since his birth.]
Cat toys as a matter of course.
[What gave you the illusion that the Cat God was generous?]
Perhaps Yun Jian's expression was too distorted. Tang Aibai, who was concentrating on interrogating the criminal, noticed that something was wrong with him. He turned around and frowned worriedly: "Lihua, are you sleepy? Why don't you go back and rest first?"
"It's okay, no need," Yun Jian came back to his senses, "I just, uh, I seem to know how to break this spell of forced contract."
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
The compulsory contract is one of the important trump cards that the superpower sect has hidden in Sufang City for many years. It has always existed even though it has been cleared out by the Twenty-Eight Mansions several times. It is also a big trouble that the Twenty-Eight Mansions have been troubled by so far. It is a difficult problem that the elite research team of the Twenty-Eight Mansions has spent several years to solve.
As a result, Li Hua, who had just joined the Nangong team for a few days and had only a vague understanding of basic combat skills, actually said that he could solve it?
“That’s great!” Tang Aibai’s eyes instantly filled with tears. Without questioning, he rushed to Yun Jian in two or three steps, pressed his shoulders and pushed him towards the criminal, “Then let’s do an experiment on him first. Don’t worry, I haven’t entered the criminals I caught today into the system yet. You can try it as you like. You don’t have to write a report if you fail!”
criminal:"……"
He's still sitting here! At least stay away from him when discussing such life and death issues!
Yun Jian didn't expect Tang Aibai to trust him so much, so he didn't refuse. He listened to the instructions of the cat toy who finally remembered the steps to break the curse. He put two fingers together and placed them on the criminal's temple. He suddenly sent and received his mental power, guiding the shackles of the contract in the latter's mind to move outward, flowing into the meridians along his fingertips, and finally being absorbed by the vast cat god power in the body of the tabby cat, leaving only a few dirty drops of water on the fingertips.
[This is not a drop of water, but the embodiment of the curse power attached to the contract. The Cat God did not create the fish fry protection spell for such a dirty thing. Those sects should have added a lot of auxiliary spells, but the level is too low and the methods are crude, so they are all precipitated when the spell is lifted.]
Yun Jian took the glass bottle handed to him by Tang Aibai, stored the water droplets in it, sealed the bottle tightly, and said nothing for a long time.
The shackles of the contract, which were formed by the superpower sect's consumption of superpowers when enforcing the contract, were absorbed into his body in one breath and converted into power that he could use. The conversion was too rapid and abundant, causing his mental strength to explode. Now he just wanted to rush outside and kill three hundred hellhounds.
Tang Aibai and the others were unaware and were still busy checking whether the criminal's compulsory contract had been triggered. The cat toy, who could also sense the physical condition of the tabby cat, was particularly worried.
[Can you hold on? How about going back to the lounge, turning into a cat and tearing down the house to vent your anger?]
"No need, I have a way." Yun Jian took a deep breath and transferred all the excess mental power that could not be absorbed to his body.
The man sitting in the classroom straightened his back, his eyes instantly became sharp, he took out a thick stack of math simulation papers from his schoolbag, and started to check the calculations quickly. He wrote like the wind and finished seven or eight sets in one morning self-study session, shocking his deskmate who was peeking at him.
"As expected of me," Yun Jian said happily, "I can cancel all the compulsory contracts of these criminals and finish another physics workbook!"
Cat toys are quiet as a chicken.
On the other hand, Tang Aibai realized that the turbid water drops in the glass bottle contained a lot of curses. He did not let Yun Jian start to cancel the compulsory contracts of other criminals. Instead, he left Qiao Liang and Peng Hua to continue the interrogation. He took Yun Jian to the medical room for examination. After repeatedly confirming that he was in good health, he patted his shoulder happily and said, "Being able to cancel the spell of the sect's compulsory contract is definitely a great achievement! You deserve to get the first-level super power medal!"
Although he couldn't wait to continue interrogating the sect members who they didn't even dare to question directly due to the constraints of the compulsory contract, Tang Aibai still sent Yun Jian back to the lounge to catch up on his sleep, and then he rushed into the office of the person in charge of the headquarters excitedly, waving a handwritten scribbled note as he ran: "I'm here to deliver a report! It's urgent, let me in!"
In the magnificently decorated basement of a three-story villa several thousand meters away, a man in a long robe who was sitting cross-legged in the purple smoke suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, opened his eyes, and his originally indifferent expression became extremely hideous.
"The compulsory contract has been broken!" he roared hoarsely, "Where are the Death Guards? Check them out immediately! Whoever did it, kill him at all costs!"
Four or five loud explosions were heard from the periphery of the purple smoke, and the Death Guards wearing silver armor half-knelt on the ground with their hands clasped.
The man in the robe took a few quick breaths and seemed to have calmed down on the surface, but his anger was still boiling inside him, and he had a vague feeling of oppression as if a storm was about to come.
"If you are unable to do so... the ghost hunter from the underworld will come to you with the souls of thirty baby girls as a guide."
The Death Guards responded in unison.
…
Yun Jian knew nothing about the chaos that had occurred outside because he had released the criminals from their compulsory contracts. He transformed into a cat, with his belly facing the sun, his pink cat paws stretched out on top of his head, and he snored loudly in his sleep.
The original body continued to write furiously under the gaze of his stunned classmates, and was even able to do math papers while listening to English class. By the time school was over in the evening, a thick stack of completed test papers was piled at his feet.
"You're really good," Yan Anqing appeared from behind him, flipped over his test paper which had almost all the answers correct, and sighed, "It's not the monthly exam yet, why are you working so hard?"
Yun Jian slowly packed his schoolbag and walked out the door with him, vaguely avoiding the topic: "I'm free anyway."
"I don't understand you good students," Yan Anqing shrugged, put his hands in his pockets and walked out lazily. When he walked out of the school gate, the crowd nearby became sparse. He approached Yun Jian and whispered mysteriously, "Hey, let me tell you, I have a very exciting event tonight, do you want to join?"
Yun Jian said "Huh?" and thought Yan Anqing was inviting him to go back and play games together: "It's so late, and you have to go to school tomorrow, don't you want to sleep?"
"We're not playing games. What's the point of playing games?" Yan Anqing raised his chin and raised his eyebrows proudly at Yun Jian. "Let's go find a cat tonight - believe me, it's definitely a cat you've never seen before! I've been locating him for several days! How about I take you with me?"
Yun Jian: “…”
He felt a chill on his back and suddenly had a bad feeling.
The author has something to say:
Yun Jian: MMP, I forgot to throw away my bow tie.
