Just when Zuo Xu thought the black shadow was coming towards him, he unexpectedly made a sharp turn and fled out the door.
"Did you run away?"
Sure enough, as soon as the black figure reached the door, it was blocked by an invisible barrier.
After the black shadow hit the wall at the door, it immediately turned around and was about to fly out the window.
But without exception, the entire room has been sealed by an invisible barrier!
Seeing that there was nowhere to escape, the black shadow had no choice but to flee back into the painting.
"So this is your companion Horcrux!"
When Ma Xiaofei saw the evil spirit escaping back into the painting, she immediately took out a spirit-calming talisman and stuck it in the center of the painting!
The face of the woman in the painting was hideous and terrifying, and she wanted to break out of the painting, but the seal of the talisman was like an invisible barrier, completely trapping it.
"You don't need to be afraid when facing evil spirits. They are best at confusing people's five senses. As long as you keep your mind calm and don't let them find your flaws, they can't do anything to you!"
Seeing that the evil spirit had been sealed, Ma Xiaofei looked at Zuo Xu.
I see!
After hearing the explanation from the girl in black in front of him, Zuo Xu finally knew where to hope for the e-level difficulty of the system.
As long as you are brave, female ghosts can take maternity leave?
As long as you are brave, you can take two maternity leave?
As long as he survives for one night, even if the girl in black doesn't come in to rescue him, the mission can be completed!
Therefore, this task of the system is mainly for practicing courage.
If you can't even complete this E-level mission, you may even be scared to death.
If you die, you will die in vain. The mud cannot support the wall.
After understanding the logic, Zuo Xu suddenly stopped being nervous and his legs stopped shaking. He shook his shoulders and looked at the girl in black in front of him and said, "Who is afraid? I'm not afraid!"
Ma Xiaofei ignored him. After all, tonight was all thanks to the other party. If he hadn't been used as a bait to attract the attention of the evil spirits, allowing him time to set up the spirit-sealing formation, he would have been able to suppress the evil spirits effortlessly.
You know, evil spirits are also very cunning. If it senses danger and hides, it will be difficult for her, as an exorcist, to find its hiding place.
Ignoring the other party's final stubbornness, Ma Xiaofei took down the painting on the wall, then pulled a piece of cloth, wrapped it, put it away, and prepared to take it back to the company for separate processing.
Zuo Xu didn't know that he had unknowingly acted as a bait.
Instead, he looked at the skilled movements of the girl in black in front of him in disbelief: "Grandma Lu said that the exorcist she hired was you, right?"
Such a young, beautiful woman with a good figure is actually an exorcist. This style of painting seems a bit inappropriate!
Aren't girls supposed to just scream when they see an evil spirit?
Now it's actually the other way around, with the beauty saving the hero.
"Who are you? Why are you here so late?"
Ma Xiaofei did not answer his question. Instead, she asked Zuo Xu first.
After all, the appearance of the other party is very suspicious and has a clear goal. He is coming for 403.
In other words, the other party knows about the 403 situation.
But looking at the opponent's performance just now, it is obvious that he cannot be a top-notch exorcist.
Is there really Tiehanhan in this world, who is so scared to death that he insists on coming here to find excitement?
"I'm Detective Zuo Xu from the Homicide Division. I'm responsible for the cases that happened here during the day. There are some doubts about the case, so I came over to take a look."
"Internship detective, right?"
Ma Xiaofei could tell Zuo Xu's true identity at a glance. After all, his age was here, and his immature face looked like he had just graduated.
"cough……"
Zuo Xu coughed awkwardly and quickly changed the subject: "By the way, has the evil spirit been eliminated?"
"not yet."
Speaking of the evil spirit, Ma Xiaofei's face was a little solemn: "It was only temporarily suppressed by me. It is not that easy to eliminate. You are a trainee detective in the homicide department, so you can do me a favor."
"No, I'm just an intern. I'm afraid I can't help you much!"
Ma Xiaofei pretended not to have heard Zuo Xu emphasize the word internship very seriously, but continued to say:
"This evil spirit is not naturally formed. It has an accompanying Horcrux, which means it has an owner. The person behind it placed it here to harm people. It is obvious that they want it to absorb enough resentment and promote it to evolve into evil.
Spirit, this way it will be even more harmful. If you don’t want to take care of it, then just pretend I didn’t say anything.”
"What? You mean, someone is controlling this evil spirit behind the scenes to kill people?"
Zuo Xu was shocked when she heard the news. If things were really like what she said, it would be really terrible.
Just like Fu Hai's case this time, their homicide department had arrested the suspect and sent him to the Public Security Bureau, but now the exorcist told him that the real murderer was someone else.
"Smart, worthy of being a trainee detective in the Homicide Division."
This doesn't sound like a compliment!
Zuo Xu didn't care to argue with her at this time, but seized the opportunity and continued to ask: "Then what is this companion Horcrux?"
"As an ordinary person, you don't need to know so much. You just need to help me check all the previous owners of this house. It would be great if I can find clues related to this painting. As for the exorcism,
Just leave it to the professionals.”
Zuo Xu glanced at his system name: Exorcist Detective.
seemingly,
Is there a possibility,
Own,
Also professional?
However, Zuo Xu took a look at his whiteboard attributes and had to admit,
exorcism,
They are the professionals.
"Okay, you haven't told me your name yet? How can I contact you after I find out the information?"
"My name is Ma Xiaofei. If you have any news, please come to Murphy Consulting Company on Guli Street to find me."
After saying the number, Ma Xiaofei flicked her ponytail and left Room 403 with the painting.
"Murphy Consulting?"
Zuo Xu murmured, kept the address in his mind, and prepared to leave.
It was only when I was closing the door that I discovered that the door lock was broken. It was obviously the result of Ma Xiaofei's kick when she rushed in just now.
There is no way, I definitely won’t be able to repair it today.
I have to hide it for now and wait for someone to come over and fix it tomorrow.
After putting the seal of the Public Security Department on again, Zuo Xu also left the 9th building.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully completing the hidden mission, reward: 50 experience, psychic skills.]
Spiritualism
Professional skills: Consumes 100 points of soul power to be able to communicate very simply with the soul body.
The task was passively completed as Ma Xiaofei took the painting away.
But no matter what, the task is indeed completed.
The system is very particular and the rewards are not discounted.
I took a flattering look at the system properties and saw that I still had 10 experience points left before I could upgrade.
So far, the system rewards only auxiliary skills. If there is an attack skill, can I be like Ma Xiaofei and deal with evil spirits head-on?
