“So … What happened after you dripped your blood?” Feng bujue asked.

“I heard the sound of water,” Wang Tanzhi replied.

“Don’t tell me that’s you or someone else peeing their pants …” Brother Jue said.

“Of course not.” “What I heard was something like the sound of a River flowing,” Xiao Tan said.

“Santuchuan? The netherworld? The netherworld River?” Bao Qing asked three questions.

“I’m not sure about that. ” Xiao Tan shrugged.”But I do know that in many religions and legends, the tunnel that connects the human world and the underworld is described as a ‘River’. I think …… The sound I heard was from ‘that River’.”

“Then … What happens after you hear the sound?” Feng bujue asked again.

“I also saw many fragments, many … Memory fragments that do not belong to me …” When Xiao Tan reached this point, he could not help but frown.”Most of them were scenes related to death … Like the memory before I was murdered or the moment before I was run over by a train …”

“It didn’t cause you any mental pollution, did it?” Feng bujue looked at his expression and asked out of concern.

“Er …” Xiao Tan answered,”there is really no such thing … Because those fragments are only ‘visual’ and ‘auditory’ memories. For me, it is like watching a bunch of horror film clips that have nothing to do with it. In comparison, some of the scripts in Thriller Paradise are scarier than this. ”

“Oh …” Brother Jue heard that and nodded in relief.

At this moment, Lord Bao retorted sharply,””Hmm … When you said ‘not really’, I thought you would say ‘my mind has been tainted by brother Jue’s super corruptive source, so I have lost interest in this level of memory.'”

“Hahaha …” When Xiao Tan heard that, he laughed heartily.”You don’t say, but that is possible.”

“Hey, hey … What’s there to be happy about?” Feng bujue narrowed his eyes.”And …” He turned to Bao Qing.”What do you mean by ‘super polluting source’? You defined it?”

“It was defined by an expert who counseled me since I was young.” Bao Qing replied.

“Which expert? Tell me the name. ” Feng bujue added.

“For the sake of his or her safety, I think it’s better for you to never know his or her name.” As Bao Qing spoke, he turned his head to avoid brother Jue’s gaze and said to Xiao Tan,”come, let’s talk about the clips …”

“I have nothing to say.” “Then the test will be over,” Xiao Tan said.

“Ah?” Bao Qing was puzzled.”Just like that?”

“Yes, just like that.” Xiao Tan replied.

“What’s the point of this test?” Feng bujue asked.

“The purpose of the test is to find out what kind of reaction the scales will have when they come into contact with my blood.” “Of course,” Xiao Tan replied.”They’ve already completed the other tests. For example … What will happen when a normal person’s blood comes into contact with the scale, what will happen when a spiritual ability user’s blood comes into contact with the scale, what will happen when the scale is held in one’s hand and meditated, what will happen if one stays with the scale for a long time, and so on.” He paused for half a second and continued,”as for me … I’m an exception. Section Chief Gu felt that my blood might trigger different changes, so he arranged this test.”

“But there’s nothing special about the results?” Bao Qing continued.

“Well, at least they told me they didn ‘t.” Xiao Tan replied.

“That’s strange …” Bao Qing touched his chin and said,”since there was nothing abnormal during the test, how did the accident happen?”

“Oh … That …” Xiao Tan answered rather calmly.”It’s like this … After I finished the test, I followed agent Zhang’s lead and returned the way I came. At that time, we didn’t know that when I passed by the fourth holding area for the first time, something on the top of the shelf had reacted to my spiritual force. Therefore, when I passed by this area for the second time, the thing fell from the shelf due to the ‘gravity’ I created. Fortunately, that thing was harmless, but … When it fell, it happened to touch the ‘prank mirror’ placed under the shelf. After the mirror turned around, the cloth covering it fell off … At the moment when the mirror was about to shine on me, uncle Zhang Zhi-ang quickly turned around and pushed me down, not letting me be exposed in front of the mirror, but …”

“But, he was caught in the light.” Bao Qing finally understood what was going on.

“So what if I did?” But Feng bujue did not understand, so he continued to ask.

“If someone is reflected … The ‘guy’ in the mirror will transform into that person and escape from the mirror.” Bao Qing said,”and began the ‘prank’.”

“It sounds like …’That guy’ is a little fairy or something?” Feng bujue added.

“No… It should be described as ‘a hysterical and extremely cunning monster’.” Judging from Bao Qing’s expression when he said this, he obviously had a story.”The monster in the mirror is like a manifestation of the ‘prank’. From its perspective, there was nothing that couldn’t be used as a prank. It had no concept of ‘consequences’,’responsibility’, or ‘guilt’. Although it doesn’t have any destructive ability, you can imagine … In a place like the ‘warehouse’, if it is allowed to move freely, it will cause a terrible chain reaction. ”

“Eh? Master Bao, have you worked in the warehouse before?” “Based on your tone, you seem to have dealt with this mirror before,” Xiao Tan said.

“That’s because … A few years ago, I was involved in the entire process of taking in this item.” Bao Qing explained,”that day, Cory received a piece of news. A man who had attempted suicide claimed that someone who looked exactly like him was impersonating him … And had destroyed his life. No matter how he explained, no one around him believed his words.

“This case quickly caught our attention, so a few police detectives and I rushed to the police station to start an investigation. After confirming that this person wasn’t mentally ill or lying, we took him away and questioned him in more detail.

“After that, I joined the operations team and went to the man’s house to investigate … From there, I discovered the existence of the ‘prank mirror’.

“We only found out later that he found this mirror in a second-hand shop that was currently clearing its warehouse. He looked at the strange shape of the mirror. Although the frame was old, the mirror surface was still clear, and he felt that this was a valuable antique. After some haggling, he bought the mirror back home.

“Who would have thought … That what he brought home was actually a terrible disaster.”

When Feng bujue heard that, he could not help but ask curiously,””Then how did you guys ‘take in’ this mirror and the monster hidden in it?”

“Well … We have to talk about this.” “It’s very difficult to’ catch ‘that monster because it has the ability to teleport within a short distance. In addition, it also has the ability to “read minds.” In other words … When you are near it, it can know what you are thinking. ”

“Ha … They’re both very convenient pranks …” Brother Jue laughed.

“Fortunately … This fellow also has a weakness.” Bao Qing didn’t reply to him. He continued,”in fact, the various characteristics of this monster … Are written on the frame of the mirror. However, because it was written in an ancient language, ordinary people would not be able to understand it. ”

“But you are not ordinary people.” Feng bujue added.

“Yes, we’re not.” Bao Qing replied,”so, after we took a picture of the text on the glasses and sent it back to the Department, someone sent back the translation in less than ten minutes.” He took a sip of tea and continued,”as for the conditions for this ‘prank monster’ to come out of the mirror … The frame only gave a rough idea, but we obtained more detailed data through experiments later. The basic trigger condition was that a ‘human’ had to appear in front of the mirror, even if it was only for 0.01 seconds … That would do. As for what the limit of this ‘appearance’ is, we’ve tested it out … If the light hits the head, it will immediately trigger. As for the body parts other than the head …… It will only be triggered when more than 60% of the body’s surface area is reflected in the mirror on the two-dimensional level. ”

“Oh … It’s like when agent Zhang pushed me down. His back only flashed in front of the mirror for a moment, and he fell for it.” Xiao Tan replied.

Bao Qing nodded and continued,”the way to keep the demon is to … Let the person who released it appear in the mirror with it.” At that moment, the pranking monster would reveal its true form and be sucked into the mirror. It won’t be able to come out for the next six minutes. ”

“Wait a minute,” Feng bujue said.”Doesn’t this thing know teleportation and mind reading? Then how did you guys achieve the above conditions?”

“This is about its ‘weakness’.” When Bao Qing said this, he showed a noncommittal expression.”The monster that lives in the prank mirror has two weaknesses. One is that the straight line distance between it and the mirror can not exceed 6666 meters. Secondly, for some reason, if the mirror is stained with peanut butter, it must immediately come back and lick it clean. ”

“Ha?” When Feng bujue heard the first weakness, he wanted to mock it, but he held back. However, when he heard the second weakness, he suddenly felt that the first weakness was quite normal.”Uh … Why … The peanut butter part made me have some strange images in my mind …”

“I think that’s because your brain is too dirty.” Bao Qing continued calmly,”in short … We moved the mirror to a place with no place to hide within a few kilometers. We covered the victim’s eyes, brought her to the mirror, and used peanut butter to seal her. Then, we covered the mirror and kept it.”

“It’s such a dangerous thing … Is it really okay for you to just cover it with a piece of cloth?” When Feng bujue heard that, he immediately raised the question.

“You think we want to do this?” Bao Qing replied,”experiments have proven that, except for linen, all objects exposed in front of the mirror will be corroded, and the period of corrosion is unpredictable … The same material can sometimes block for a week, sometimes only for a few minutes; In addition, using rope, tape, and the like to fix the cloth to the mirror, or using a large piece of cloth to directly wrap the mirror in it, will trigger the corrosion effect, even if we use linen. ”

“Oh … In that case,” “I can’t even put the mirror into a sealed space after I close it,” Feng bujue said.

“Yes,” Bao Qing continued,”we tried to cover it and put it in a separate room. I’ve also tried to cover it up and put it in a large cabinet or box. I’ve even tried to put it in colored ice … However, after doing so for more than ten seconds, the mirror will automatically teleport out of the sealed space and appear in a random area nearby. ” He paused and showed a helpless expression.”Also, you can’t put it in an uninhabited wasteland. When there are no humans or other things around, it can also teleport. The time and distance of teleportation are determined by the surrounding emptiness …

“Countless experiments have proved that only by placing this thing together with other furniture and miscellaneous items, covering it with linen, and ensuring that there is frequent human activity around it, can it be maintained in a relatively stable state.”

“I also have a question.” Then, like a child asking a question in class, Xiao Tan raised his right hand and asked,”have you guys tried to destroy this thing? For example, breaking a mirror, melting it, and so on …”

“I’ve tried,” Bao Qing replied,”during the first destruction experiment, we hit the mirror with a hammer, but only a small crack was left.”At the same time, or at the same second … There was a magnitude 6 earthquake in South Wales …” He paused for a second.”Again, the second time, we changed positions and used a chisel, so there was another earthquake in South Africa … Please note that these two things happened on the same day.”

“Holy F * ck …” Feng bujue was shocked.”This thing is going against the heavens.”

“After that, we didn’t make any similar attempts.” Bao Qing said,”what if we melt the mirror and cause the volcano under Yellowstone Park in the United States to erupt? it will be difficult to clean up …”

“Hmm…I see.” Brother Jue nodded and then turned to Xiao Tan.” So … The day you went to the warehouse, it ended with agent Zhang spreading peanut butter on the mirror?”

“No.” Xiao Tan shook his head.

“What?” This time, Bao Qing was shocked.”You’re not?”

“Ah …” Xiao Tan looked at Bao Qing and said,”this is the first time I’ve heard about the details of the mirror that you’ve just told me …”

“Then how did you lock the monster back into the mirror?” Bao Qing asked nervously.

“Uh … It’s like this,” Xiao Tan replied calmly,”that day, after the mirror was revealed, I was also confused for a long time …

“First, I saw a man who looked exactly like agent Zhang run out of the mirror and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Then, all sorts of alarms went off in the warehouse, and the staff was in a mess …

“No matter what … Five minutes after the alarm went off, I was brought to a ‘safe room’. The agents told me to wait there and not move.

“In the end, as soon as they walked out of the room, I found that the other ‘detective Zhang’ was already beside me. He was squatting on the ground … And was quietly tying the shoelaces of my two shoes together. ”

When Xiao Tan said that, he chuckled.””So I told him …’Can you stop?’. I didn’t expect … He looked at me for two seconds and said ‘yes’. He immediately stood up and stared at me with a nervous and respectful look. I saw that he seemed to listen to me … So I tried to ask Qianqian,’can you go back into the mirror and don’t come out for the time being?’. He cried and said,’okay’, and then disappeared …”

When he said that, Feng bujue and master Bao could tell that Wan Wan’s condition was related to Wang Tanzhi’s psionic power or bloodline.

However, Xiao Tan still did not seem to understand the problem.”Now that I think about it … Could it be that you all misunderstood the pranking monster? maybe it’s actually quite easy to talk to?”
