Chapter 299: Ancient House and Spontaneous Combustion

After listening to 께curse's explanation, Bai Zhi didn't speak for a long time, and his thoughts flashed quickly:

"Although this 'parent-eater' curse is weird and terrifying and points directly to fate, after several life and death catastrophes, I should no longer have 놇깊 in my body and it will dissipate on its own..."

"Furthermore, since I am still alive, there is basically no possibility of passing it on to my relatives..."

"Furthermore, even if the curse does happen and is passed on unexpectedly, there will only be one cursed dependent, and the risk is controllable..."

After thinking about this, Bai Zhi felt a little more relaxed and received Guiyu's prayer voice.

After receiving the former's request, the latter took less than ten minutes to bring back information about the strange rumors about the ancient house in Shizhen and the missing car in Yucheng City.

…

Spiritual space.

For the sake of safety and concealment, Guiyu did not choose to transmit the information directly through the smart device, but reappeared through the spirit world as pieces of A4 paper, so that Bai Zhi could look at the graphic summary on it and listen to his explanation:

"About that ancient house in 께Shi Town, three strange incidents happened..."

"The first incident occurred more than fifty years ago. The original owner of the house, a family of five, all died suddenly overnight. The death was miserable, and all the fluids were drained from the body. The incident occurred in the early morning, and the surrounding neighbors did not hear it. A trace of noise... The Supernatural Affairs Bureau at that time, the predecessor of the Federal Bureau of Secrets, came in, but the case has not been closed..."

"In the second incident, half of the members who participated in the investigation died within five years after the investigation, and their families also suffered varying degrees of misfortune..."

"At this time, the relevant departments have not discovered the strangeness of this ancient house..."

"The third incident was a father and daughter who moved into that old house fourteen years ago despite dissuasion... In the end, the father died and the daughter disappeared..."

After 꿰 introduced three strange events that can be combined into one, Guiyu 꺗 mentioned that the "parent-eater" curse investigated in the folklore near 깊Secret Bureau 놇 is not much different from what Bai Zhi has already realized.

"Shortly after the third incident occurred, in order to ensure local social stability and economic benefits and implement the federal tourism policy of revitalizing the countryside, the Secret Security Bureau, together with the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Department and the Law Enforcement Division, included all the strange buildings in the ancient house. Bulldozed…”

Up to this point, the demolition of the ancient house may have been opposed by the local residents, right? The reason for the opposition is also very simple. He is afraid that the curse will spread after the ancient house is destroyed, and the evil spirits inside will come out to take revenge on the people around him... Bai Zhi came up with such an idea.

Immediately she stopped Guiyu's words and said:

"I know, let's talk about another thing."

Bai Zhi has read the information about the events related to the ancient house, and the Secret Guard Bureau did not find out who the curse came from until the end...

"Yes." Guiyu said after careful consideration:

"Dr. Bai Zhi, based on the conditions you provided, I found a case that fits a similar description - namely, the incident of spontaneous combustion of a vehicle on the Yucheng Highway and the disappearance of passengers on the Yucheng Highway numbered 'A-1028'."

Vehicle spontaneous combustion? Members disappeared? Bai Zhi's heart moved, but there was no change on his face.

Bai Zhi, who often dealt with Oni Yu, knew the danger of this strange incident as soon as he heard this number.

Starting with A means that at least A-level secret keepers are required to solve it, and the following numbers represent the date when the file was created.

Guiyu said in a deep voice:

"More than a month ago, vehicles spontaneously ignited for no apparent reason while driving on the highway in several surrounding cities centered on Yucheng City. However, the search and rescue team arrived but did not find any casualties, nor did they find any blood or traces of blood. The clues to the accident basically rule out ordinary intentional crimes.”

"According to further investigation, all cases in the incident have the following unified characteristics. The incident time was around 12 noon, with an error of no more than 5 minutes, and the location was on a highway far away from the city..."

"Even if you are not driving a vehicle, if someone passes by on the road, your clothes and hair will suddenly spontaneously ignite. The entire body will disappear before the flames expand... Even ordinary pets are no exception..."

After listening to this paragraph, Bai Zhi was a little curious. If the hairless creature passed by there at 12 noon, would it be fine?

"In addition, the target objects, that is, the missing members, have not found anything in common. Among them, there are both ordinary people and super people..."

"For more than a month, the number of missing persons has reached 깊219."

"The Secret Guard Bureau found through divination that most of the missing people are still alive, but the location cannot be determined, and even the general direction cannot be known. The initial suspicion is that they are blocked in a different space..."

"Initially, the Secret Guard Bureau rated this as a 'severe level' strange event. However, due to the two teams led by A-level secret keepers disappearing during the investigation, the danger rating was raised to 'quasi-evil level'..."

All A-levels are missing, 깊ah... The Federal Secret Service sent out 깊2, but they must be very distressed... Bai Zhi's eyes quickly scanned the information, and he suddenly thought.

Guiyu continued:

"Yes, the official investigation team also includes superhuman beings hired from the 'New World', who also disappeared together."

"Now the Secret Guard Bureau is further studying the rescue plan, and there is a high probability that S-level secret guards will be deployed."

Bai Zhi looked at Gui Yu, his eyes seemed to be saying: Are S-class people that busy?

Gui Yu lowered her eyebrows and said respectfully:

"Including quasi-S-level people, there are no more than 10 strong people at this level in the Secret Guard Bureau."

"Some of them are exploring and training in the ruins, some have missions and cannot leave the city they are responsible for guarding, some are cooperating with the military to conduct experiments, and some seem to be affected by strange things and are under quarantine observation."

Bai Zhi's mouth almost twitched, thinking that the top combat power of the Secret Guard Bureau is too insufficient... No wonder Mr. "Zhan Xing" took a long time to rush over last time.

Seeing that Master Bai Zhi did not respond, Gui Yu raised his head slightly and asked:

"Master Bai Zhi, is there anything else I can do for you?"

Bai Zhi thought for a while and said:

"Give me a list of the locations where the spontaneous combustion and disappearance incidents occurred."

A second later, he added a "concerned" word:

"How did you digest the 'spiritual fluid' the night before yesterday?"

Bai Zhi also looked at Gui Yu's information in front of him.
