Unlucky black cat

In Chaopan District of Donghu City, there is a bus line that runs all day.

The purpose is to pick up and drop off duty officers working in nearby ports.

However, this is also convenient for several surrounding companies and factories, giving them another reason for their employees to work overtime with peace of mind.

The urban ghost story Manyang mentioned is a short story related to this bus line.

Legend has it that a horrific tragedy occurred on the old No. 28 bus that ran on that route ten years ago.

The deceased was a young woman in her twenties.

She is extremely beautiful, with peach blossom eyes and an oval face.

He is tall and stylish, and his family is wealthy and well-off.

It's a pity that his character is not very good.

She had sex with men outside several times, which resulted in her getting pregnant out of wedlock, and she even aborted one of her children.

However, the second year after she aborted her child.

Her family went bankrupt, her father died in a car accident, and her mother got stomach cancer.

The rotten brother owes a lot of gambling debts.

Life fell from heaven to hell almost all at once.

During those days, no one knew how she got here. All I know is that her brother later believed in a cult again. Unless she is unclean, her family will be ruined and her fortune will be ruined. Now, she must be exorcised.

So, one midnight with heavy rain.

The woman was kidnapped from her home by three big men.

The bus they took was the No. 28 bus that night.

The destination is the shore of East Lake.

There are different opinions on the process of exorcism, and it is difficult to find a generally accepted version. All I know is that in the end, the already crazy brother was wearing the human skin of his sister. Wearing a pair of high heels, she cried bitterly along the road, and then committed suicide by throwing herself into a lake.

Later, bus No. 28 was required to be completely replaced.

But a certain figure, covered in human skin like a raincoat, didn't seem to leave.

Some people said that when they were walking by the East Lake one night, they did hear a faint cry.

The movement was like a man or a woman, weeping or complaining, and finally disappeared in the sound of a slight undulating tide.

Some people say that the old Route 28 is actually still running today, and it occasionally alternates between the new Route 28.

If you happen to board that car and there happen to be only four people in the car, remember to close your eyes and ignore anyone who tells you until you reach the terminal. Especially when you hear the inexplicable sound of rain and the sound of walking in high heels, absolutely don't look at it.

Otherwise, you probably won't be able to get out of the car.

…

The above is the entire content of urban ghost stories.

As for the resentful spirit incident that is happening now, it coincides with the rumors on several key words.

The places of death of all the victims were on the banks of East Lake. The time of death was all at midnight, and the manner of death was that they were skinned to death.

And their last act before death was taking the No. 28 bus.

…

In this case.

After listening to the story, Jiang Sheng, who was already lying on the table and playing with his tail, frowned and said slowly that no one else could see.

You go directly and investigate. The No. 28 bus mentioned in the ghost story is good.

Of course we've tried.

Regarding Jiang Sheng's speech, Manyang raised his eyebrows in disbelief.

It's a pity that Route 28 did not encounter any murder cases at all. And the reason why it was replaced was only because the vehicles were old and even caused a traffic accident.

Traffic accident?

Hearing this word, Black Cat tilted his head alertly: Is someone dead?

died.

Perhaps anticipating Black Cat's question, Manyang simply nodded.

Including the driver, there were three dead in total. But it was neither raining nor midnight, and no one committed suicide by throwing themselves into the lake. As for skinning, that is even more nonsense.

So. Bai Jie, who was sitting aside, interjected.

Except for having some subtle connection with the current case, this strange story has no basis in the previous police records, right?

That's right. He shrugged casually, and then added another sentence.

At least judging from the current investigation results, this is indeed the case. If someone in the department hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't even have taken the ghost stories into consideration.

Then have you actually seen it on the No. 28 bus?

On the other side, Jiang Sheng still asked without giving up.

It always feels like it has caught some clue.

seen it already.

Regarding the black cat's persistence, Manyang just reached out and rubbed its head casually.

But there are no psychic fluctuations on it at all. For a thorough investigation, we even asked the bus terminal to call out all 28 routes. However, we still can't find any trace of the existence of spirits.

Jiang Sheng, who was used to being touched, did not struggle hard, but subconsciously shook his ears.

In this case, is it possible that the old buses will not be under the control of the bus terminal?

Black Cat's tone gradually became heavier.

The hand on its head also paused.

Bai Jie and Manyang undoubtedly understood the meaning behind this sentence.

It's not impossible.

Manyang thought about it for a long time and replied thoughtfully.

But how are we going to find this old car? Do we have to send people to guard the platform around the clock?

This is obviously not an appropriate decision. With fewer people sent, there may be danger if the rumors are true.

If too many people are sent, it will inevitably be a waste of time and energy if the rumors are false.

After all, investigating ghosts is not something that can be delayed slowly.

The best choice now is obviously to focus on the center of East Lake, where a large number of disasters can already be seen.

Even though the area is too vast, finding the source of the resentful spirit is as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.

Probably sensing Manyang's concerns, Jiang Sheng moved the collared neck, and then glanced at Bai Jie sitting behind him.

Maybe, the two of us can go take a look first.

You two.

At this point, Manyang's expression became serious.

Are you sure you can deal with a resentful spirit?

In today's Donghu City, including him and Bai Jie.

There are a total of two curse managers, eleven constraint-level psychic users, twenty induction-level psychic users, and finally a number of psychic detectives.

This kind of power is quite satisfactory for dealing with a resentful spirit.

It would definitely be a bit too much to act separately.

However, he and Bai Jie are also quite outstanding among the managers of curses.

If I cooperate with the remaining manpower to hold down a resentful spirit, there should be no problem.

Manyang has this confidence for the time being.

But with the black cat in front of him and Bai Jie, their strength seemed a little weak.

I'm just going to take a look. I shouldn't encounter any big trouble, right?

After saying that, Jiang Sheng looked back at Bai Jie with a guilty conscience.

That expression seemed to be confirming, but also seemed to be asking.

Manyang also followed the black cat's gaze and looked over.

Facing the gazes of the two people, the pale young man was silent for a while, and finally smiled helplessly and spread his hands.

I, I don't have any objections. At least, I can escape.
