"Then how do we find it?"
"Don't look at it from a historical perspective, look at it from a symbolic perspective!"
"A cemetery? A mass grave?"
"That's just a place for the dead, while the criminals probably look for places with a sense of ritual!"
"church?"
"You actually went to a church to summon a demon?! You're driving me crazy!"
Uncle Bin put his hands on Lin Yue's shoulders to calm him down.
"Calm down! If you keep rushing like this, you'll never find that place in your entire life!"
Do you have any leads?
"The only way to speculate is through the demon god Naidinger. Naidinger is the progenitor of demons. That's all I know. What about you?"
Lin Yue recalled the classical texts he had previously translated, “It’s strange that all the classical accounts of Naidinger are incomplete. But there is one part that impressed me quite a bit, which is that it actually appeared before the Father (God). There is indeed a book that says so. By the way, it is also the progenitor of both light and darkness.”
"The place that summons it must be related to light and darkness. But this city has a short history and there is nothing related to light and darkness at all."
"Don't start with history! Start with the simplest imagery! Imagery is what you can see! The 'light' and 'darkness' you can see? Tell me, what exactly are they?"
The two then came to the conclusion almost simultaneously: "Day and night!"
So what we need to find is a place where day and night exist simultaneously, or in other words, a place where we can see both day and night at the same time.
“There really is such a place! Let’s go! Drive faster on the motorcycle!” Lin Yue urged.
2. Holy Cross College.
The college's English name is Saint Cross. Cross means cross or intersecting, and it also signifies the interplay of light and darkness.
According to the school's history, the rooftop at the highest point of the library offers a view of both the sun during the day and the moon at night, appearing simultaneously in the sky.
In the dead of night, he easily entered the school, walked along the campus path, heading towards the library, and climbed the stairs to the top floor.
It wasn't time yet, he thought. Midnight was the intersection of yesterday and today, the most suitable time for the ceremony.
Filled with excitement, he rushed up to the rooftop.
He didn't want to carry such a heavy person up himself, so he went up to the rooftop first to check the ritual props and see if any steps or details had been missed. He would summon demon soldiers to carry the offerings up later.
Awaiting him was the clear, bright moonlight, and...
Under the silvery moonlight, the solid black figure stood out, its coat fluttering in the night wind, as if telling the prisoner: I've found you!
"They used their power to arbitrarily enter the school under the pretext of investigating a case; in order to cover up and deceive, they even cleverly asked our Dawn Poetry Society to investigate the case."
You even abused your power, taking away your last offering in full view of the residents of Sixth Street. You're a police officer, aren't you?
Uncle Bin is right; the perpetrator was one of the two police officers who first entered the school to investigate the suicide case.
The man smiled sinisterly. Although he had been exposed, he hadn't lost yet. "You're a demon detective, then I'm a demon cop. We're both people who use magic to achieve our ambitions."
"Excuse me..." Uncle Bin jumped down from the highest point to confront the demon police.
"I have no ambition. If I had to say, it would be to eliminate criminals like you who attempt to summon demons and wreak havoc on the human world."
"A criminal?" The demon policeman chuckled. "I'm a policeman too! I'm a public servant protecting the safety of citizens! And I'm also Lord Naidinger's most loyal public servant!"
"Are you kidding me? You murdered three living people for a sacrifice, and you're planning to kill the last one. Is this what you call a public servant?"
"Sacrificing a few insignificant people to summon a demon god capable of ruling the three realms, don't you think it's extremely worthwhile? Let me tell you, you frog in a well, about the current situation of the three realms."
The demon realm (hell) is filled with all sorts of unvented evil and resentment;
The world is filled with the seven deadly sins that have never been eradicated since the primitive era;
And the celestial realm is no better. Some angels, seeking pleasure and to experience the human world, recklessly possess humans, thus causing the deaths of those who should not have perished.
Uncle Bin felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing the last part. If Lin Yue had heard this, he probably would have skinned the enemy alive. "Aren't you also causing deaths that shouldn't have happened, aren't you?"
"To dedicate everything for the soon-to-arrive Lord Nedinger is the meaning of the dead sacrifices!"
"I'm not going to waste my breath on you. My mission is to prevent Naidinger from returning to this world."
"Come on! Let's see what you can do to stop me!"
Uncle Bin drew his sword, and the demon policeman took out his baton, which had been imbued with magic. The two engaged in a fierce close-quarters battle.
3. Lin Yue handed the battle over to Uncle Bin and went to find Lan Xi on his own.
But the school was too spacious, and he absolutely could not alert anyone at this moment. Just as he was getting anxious, Shan Shan emerged from the shadows.
He realized that the woman in front of him was cold as ice, no longer the lover who would whisper sweet nothings in his arms the moment they met.
Lin Yue felt that the thread of their relationship had been severed by some kind of reality.
A strange feeling flashed through Lin Yue's mind, but he ignored it and pleaded with Shan Shan, "Help me find Lan Xi! She's in danger!"
After hearing this, she nodded faintly, then disappeared into the darkness and went far away, never saying a word to her former lover.
Thus, in unspoken understanding, the two parted ways to search for Lan Xi. Lin Yue was in the open, while Shan Shan remained in the shadows.
