Chapter 63 The Unalterable Ending
"No, it's just that your satellite location was suddenly detected in Dajing City, so I'm calling to confirm. Your mission should be complete by now!"
You can go and hand things over with Elder Qin yourself. The paranormal community has been relatively calm lately, so you can rest and recuperate for a while longer.
Cao Yanhua's attitude on the other end of the phone was noticeably better than before, and he even offered to let Su Qin rest for a while, which was somewhat beyond the expectations of the ghost slave clone.
The ghost slave's clone hung up the phone, and Cao Yanhua's attitude left him somewhat puzzled.
"What's this guy up to? Is this really something Cao Yanhua would say? Could it be a trap?"
Cao Yanhua's change must have a reason, but Su Qin was away from Dajing City for more than ten days this time, and it was unclear what exactly happened during that time.
At this moment, in the Investigation Bureau's office, Cao Yanhua was smoking one cigarette after another, his face full of worry.
The domestic situation is not as he just said; it has not only failed to calm down, but is getting worse.
There were more than a dozen files on his desk. These seemingly light files felt like mountains weighing on his heart, making it hard to breathe.
The contents of these files are his heartache, an incurable heartache.
Several vicious paranormal events have occurred in succession, which are impossible to handle. The only option is to isolate and seal off the area. Such events are becoming more and more frequent. These are all ticking time bombs that could explode at any moment.
To make matters worse, several more demon slayers have been resurrected during this period. The already insufficient manpower has been exacerbated by the loss of several demon slayers, making the situation even more dire.
Even with the recent success of the experiments in the research lab and the addition of several more demon tamers, it was impossible to stop the situation from deteriorating.
That is why Cao Yanhua had to change his strategy. Ghost controllers are not machines, nor are they superhumans. They are capable of resurrecting vengeful spirits and cannot frequently participate in supernatural events.
If we don't take these demon tamers seriously, and something goes wrong with them, then everything is over.
"The Americans are pressing harder and harder. Won't their ghost-controlling masters be able to summon vengeful spirits?"
This was another worry for Cao Yanhua. The International Ghost Keepers organization established by the United Nations was too powerful. It had already established a presence in several major countries and was putting pressure on Asia, all under the guise of helping Asia alleviate pressure for the future of humanity.
But Cao Yanhua knew perfectly well what these foreigners were thinking. This was clearly taking advantage of a crisis. It's easy to invite people in, but hard to send them away. Once these foreigners seized the opportunity and reached in, it would be truly the end for them. It would be more terrifying than any evil spirit.
On the other side, the ghost servant clone hailed a taxi on the street and headed to the Paranormal Investigation Bureau. Since the Ghost Gate couldn't be kept anyway, it was better to hand it over to Old Qin as soon as possible.
Half an hour later, the taxi stopped in front of the mental hospital.
After paying the fare, the ghost slave clone went straight to the mental hospital and went to the backyard to find Old Qin.
Gazing at the ancient wooden door of the house that moved without wind, the ghost slave clone couldn't help but feel somewhat restrained, as if he were being forced to walk onto the battlefield, unwilling and reluctant.
"Can't these old fogies do something normal? They always have to make it so weird."
The ghost slave clone dared not speak openly, only muttering to himself. Having just witnessed Luo Wensong's terror, he dared not underestimate the old man in the courtyard.
In the courtyard, Old Qin was sitting in a recliner, basking in the sun, looking very content.
"You're back so soon? Half a month earlier than I expected. Didn't you take the bus back?"
According to Qin Lao's calculations, the bus would not pass by the Ghost Post Office for another week, so Su Qin's trip to the Ghost Post Office would take at least a month.
This would effectively prevent Su Qin from running around and affecting his plans, while also helping Su Qin suppress the supernatural forces within him and alleviate the problem of the resurgence of the evil spirits.
But Su Qin returned ahead of schedule, which means that Su Qin did not proceed according to his expected plan. Something must have happened that was beyond his expectations.
Old Qin's indifferent gaze swept over the Ghost Slave clone's entire body, finally settling on the monocle on the Ghost Slave clone's eye socket, making the Ghost Slave clone feel extremely uncomfortable.
Su Qin, who was hiding in the supernatural medium, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
The terrifying old man is watching him through a supernatural medium with a scrutinizing gaze.
"What a joke!"
Is this ever going to end? Are all these old guys monsters?
Is this paranormal medium really that unreliable? They can see right through you so easily? Then what's the point of hiding?!
Su Qin muttered to himself, while his monocle began to glow faintly. His body began to invade reality through a supernatural medium, replacing the ghost slave clone with himself.
Su Qin's unusual behavior might seem strange to others, but Old Qin maintained an indifferent expression, seemingly unsurprised, and continued to look at Su Qin calmly, waiting for his answer.
Su Qin not only left the supernatural medium himself, but also carried a tightly wrapped door panel back to reality.
He placed the door panel on the ground in front of him, signifying the successful completion of his mission.
"I didn't get on the bus when I came back. That bus was so weird. I almost died on the bus on the way there. After that, I waited for two days in the haunted place but the bus never came."
However, they found a completely upside-down ghost post office underground, and there was an old man inside, who looked exactly like the old man in the post office above ground.
That old man took me back to Dajing City using this very thing!
As he spoke, Su Qin pointed to the Ghost Gate on the ground, which was wrapped up tightly.
Su Qin briefly explained what had happened, and Old Qin's doubts vanished without a trace.
It turns out that Luo Wensong was behind it all. That's not surprising, since that haunted place was originally Luo Wensong's territory. Others might not be able to leave the Ghost Post Office, but Luo Wensong was different. He had already made a name for himself with the supernatural phenomena there seventy or eighty years ago.
But this only brought new doubts to Old Qin's mind.
"Did Luo Wensong ask you to come out and work for him?"
Old Qin must know Luo Wensong's temper. Over the decades, hundreds or even thousands of young people have been cheated to death at the Ghost Post Office, but Luo Wensong has never helped anyone, not even that kid from the Zhang family.
Luo Wensong definitely had some purpose in doing this.
This was obvious and could not be kept from the old man. Su Qin was well aware of this and had no intention of hiding it.
"The old man gave me two choices: go into the post office or do something for him. I chose the latter."
Next April, release something unknown somewhere and lure it to Dachang City.
Su Qin calmly explained Luo Wensong's request to Elder Qin, while carefully observing the changes in Elder Qin's expression.
But after listening to Su Qin's explanation, Old Qin suddenly understood, and all his doubts vanished.
He knew what Luo Wensong was up to; it was a plan that the old guys had devised a long time ago. He just hadn't expected that Luo Wensong would actually have Su Qin do it for him.
A complex emotion flashed in Old Qin's eyes as he looked at Su Qin, as if he was hesitant, but in the end he felt relieved.
He had tried his best to stop some things, but in the end, things would still come full circle.
Some things happen that cannot be stopped, as if a terrifying hand is controlling everything.
