His subordinate looked troubled: "Director Wang, we don't know the specifics yet. After all, they were all injured and are receiving treatment. I didn't ask in detail. The only one who was lightly injured was Investigator Shen. However, although Investigator Shen is physically fine, he seems to have suffered considerable psychological trauma. He was unwilling to answer my questions, and after a simple bandage, he hurriedly went home."
Wang Dehai's expression turned slightly serious: "Xiao Shen is a senior investigator who has experienced many strange events. If even she suffered psychological trauma, then this incident is probably very serious."
The subordinate hesitated before saying, "Um... it might not be related to the strange events, it's mainly... it's mainly that Investigator Shen's hair seems to be gone."
Wang Dehai was stunned: "What did you say? Xiao Shen is bald? How could he suddenly become bald out of nowhere?"
"Forget it, I won't get anything out of you. As long as they're alright, that's fine. Let them rest today, and I'll go check on them again tomorrow."
The next day, Fang Xiu had just woken up in his hospital bed when Wang Dehai rushed over.
Upon seeing Fang Xiu, whose body was wrapped in bandages, a look of concern immediately appeared on his face. He quickly stepped forward and said, "Hey, hey, don't get up. You're injured. We in the Investigation Bureau don't have so many formalities. Lie down quickly..."
Before Wang Dehai could finish speaking, Fang Xiu had already gotten out of bed, glanced at him calmly, and then turned and went into the bathroom.
Wang Dehai's outstretched hands froze in place.
call!
I'm not angry, I'm not angry. That's how all spirit masters are, we're used to it.
After some mental preparation, Fang Xiu came out of the restroom, while Wang Dehai seemed to have regained his composure as the bureau chief.
He first briefly explained three points, inquired about Fang Xiu's health, and then began to ask about the events in Blackwater Village.
Fang Xiu did not hide anything, but directly told the story of Wang Erni, the hair ghost, and the puppeteer Wang Yanran.
Wang Dehai's expression grew increasingly grave as he listened, especially after hearing about the Bright Club, when a rare hint of anger appeared on his face.
"What! The Bright Club actually dared to openly attack the Investigation Bureau?! What are they trying to do! Are they planning a rebellion?!"
"What!? You're saying you stole their magical artifact first and killed a core member? Oh, never mind then."
"What!? You used the power of the artifact? How bad is the mental corruption? Kobayashi! Go to the station right now and get a stick of incense, no, two sticks."
Before long, Fang Xiu had obtained two spirit incense sticks and 3,000 spirit coins.
Because the hair ghost is a B-level ghost, and the reward for solving a B-level ghost is 1000 spirit coins.
Fang Xiu's privilege was to double the reward, which was 2000. However, since the Blackwater Village incident was not a single strange event, but also involved a second-tier spirit master and the intervention of civilian forces, the final reward was 3000 spirit coins.
The value of the spirit incense is also very high. The official price of one stick is around 100 spirit coins, but if it is sold on the black market, the price will double or even several times.
This thing is a lifesaver. If you encounter a spirit master who is about to lose control of their spirit, they will buy one even if it means going bankrupt.
This time, Fang Xiu could be said to have become rich overnight. The reward from the Investigation Bureau, plus the spoils he obtained from Wang Yanran, and so on, all added together, he could afford to buy the life of the president of the Bright Club.
However, just as he said before, when he can really afford to buy the life of the president of the Bright Club, he can take orders himself.
He has already killed a second-tier spirit master, so why can't he kill the president of the Light Club, who is also a second-tier spirit master?
Even if Wang Erni's status as a second-tier spirit master is somewhat questionable, with very little combat experience and only just stepping into the threshold of a second-tier spirit master, don't forget that she also has teammates like the Hair Demon King Yanran.
Moreover, after this battle, Fang Xiu's spirituality reached 10%, allowing him to wield more power from the scalpel. With the help of the hair ghost, his strength has reached a new level. Combined with the infinite trial and error of death rewind, how could he possibly lose?
The Brightness Club must be destroyed. After he killed Lin Ziyang, Wang Yanran, and stole the bronze candlestick, he had already formed a deadly feud, so he had to continue killing.
In fact, Fang Xiu had no interest in killing; he was only interested in the bizarre. But he had no choice but to do so.
He could have been a good person who dedicated himself to killing monsters and benefiting humanity, but unfortunately, there were always people forcing him to do so.
Therefore, in order to protect himself, he had no choice but to raise the butcher's knife and use killing to protect himself.
"Fang Xiu, I will definitely give you an explanation regarding the Guangming Club matter. However, Vice Captain Bai Qi is still seriously injured and Captain Yang Ming has a mission to complete. I will definitely send them to the Guangming Club in person after some time."
Fang Xiu nodded calmly, not paying any attention to Wang Dehai's words, because he had already decided to take action himself.
"Don't do anything during this time, just focus on recovering. I've already got some cell repair fluid from the bureau. After a few injections, I guarantee you'll be fully recovered and discharged in a week."
The file on the Blackwater Village incident has been updated. The rank is B+, codename "The Deceptive." This will all be recorded in your files; it's an honor that will stay with you for life. The Investigation Bureau will never forget any hero.
Remember to rest well. Play some games, watch anime, or scroll through some suggestive short videos—basically, do whatever is relaxing and entertaining.
After Wang Dehai finished speaking, he seemed afraid of causing a misunderstanding, so he quickly explained, "Don't misunderstand, the spiritual growth of you guys in this strange event is too fast. Although it seems like a good thing, in the long run, it is also a hidden danger."
A sudden surge in spirituality means a large amount of strange power has entered the mind, increasing the risk of spiritual loss of control. In your young people's terms, it's like cultivating too fast, which can easily lead to demonic possession and aftereffects.
Fang Xiu did not react when he heard the words "going into qi deviation".
Fortunately, Wang Dehai had gotten used to the strange behavior of the spirit masters, and after a few more awkward words, he left.
Not long after he left, Zhao Hao, who was leaning on a cane and had a cast on his leg, came in beaming.
"Brother Xiu, you didn't see it, did you? The nurse who gave me the IV just now was so pretty. She was wearing a nurse's uniform! She was just missing a white shirt. Tsk tsk, her little hands were so soft and smooth. I deliberately moved around a few times so she would touch me more."
Fang Xiu looked at the needle marks all over Zhao Hao's hands and knew that the aftereffects were coming.
While Zhao Hao was abnormal before, he wasn't this abnormal.
Then, Zhao Hao sneakily took out a small piece of incense stick, which was about the thickness of a little finger and dark red in color.
