Soul Trigger

Chapter 108: Evil Rules
Ji Li: “?”

Although it was a bit confusing, Ji Li didn't care about this episode:

"Row."

The two of them switched positions, one after the other, and started throwing darts while chatting:

"So how's the situation with the Blood Shuttle Group going?"

"This is what I was going to tell you. Now that you have joined the Special Management Bureau, I can tell you some things..."

As Yan Xiyu spoke, he seemed a little distracted and threw the dart in his hand onto Ji Li's target.

Lao Deng was happy: "This point is mine."

"That was also thrown by me." Yan Xiyu took out another small dart:

"There will be a very important matter in a few days. In addition to the incident in the Special Investigation Division, which has caused a shortage of manpower and personnel allocation issues, we were forced to remove the surveillance on the Blood Shuttle Group by our superiors."

"Withdrawn?" Ji Li frowned.

"Well, sorry." Yan Xiyu raised her ear and blinked with her red eyes.
"I had a big fight with the head of Section 6. That old guy... Tsk, I'm going to get rid of him sooner or later."

"Is it appropriate for you to say this in front of me?"

Ji Li had always thought that Cool Girl had a rather calm personality, with the typical temperament of a small leader in the police force.

Today he secretly cursed the director and wanted to overthrow his former leader, which seemed a bit rebellious.

"You can make tattling reports all you want. I don't care. Anyway, after we were forced to remove the surveillance, we only kept the necessary clues, which have been sent to you through the internal system."

"Once the recent events are over, I will also restart the investigation. You don't have to worry about that part. However, you cannot act arbitrarily within the Special Management Bureau. It doesn't matter if you are outside the bureau."

Ji Li nodded, reluctantly accepting the result.

What Yan Xiyu meant was that if Ji Li was eager to take action, he could use his identity as a Flash Street operator outside the Special Management Bureau to use the Special Management Bureau's intelligence to track down the Blood Shuttle Group.

But if he is not so anxious, or if the Blood Shuttle Group does not pose a big threat to him for the time being, he can wait until Yan Xiyu reopens the case and then solve the matter together.

The Blood Shuttle Group is a troublesome problem for him and must be solved. It is also one of the things he has to accomplish when joining the Special Investigation Division this time.

It is better to keep intelligence and clues than to grope around blindly on your own.

But she didn't expect the changes to be so sudden and big that Yan Xiyu had to give up the case she had been investigating.

As they were talking, Yan Xiyu's hand trembled and the dart flew to Ji Li's side again. Ji Li glanced at her:
"You did it on purpose, didn't you? Don't come to me now. You've already lost two points."

Yan Xiyu was silent for a moment, then threw another shot at Ji Li.

Ji Li: “?”

Is this girl a man with an irritable problem?

He continued, “So what’s the big deal that requires you to throw away all the cases you have on hand.”

Yan Xiyu also returned to the topic as if nothing had happened: "The pilgrimage day is also the focus of our next work."

"The one with the stable reflection world?" Ji Li had heard this word before.

Ji Li remembered that when he first came to this world, he spent some time surfing the Flash Street frantically to collect basic information, and had seen content related to the "Pilgrimage Day".

When talking about the Pilgrimage Day, we have to mention the evil and chaos in the world.

Although Ji Li’s first commission in Shan Street was to the relatively special Aries Academy, his second commission took him directly to the Special Management Bureau to be a cop.

However, in today's society, the most frequent harm is still the ordinary evil and chaos.

There are two main types of malicious invasions:

One is to be corrupted like the love-struck boy from Aries College.

The other type is the evil that has existed in the reflection world for a certain period of time and has flowed into the real world.

There is a soul psychology theory that believes that the root cause of this situation is the red radiation influence of the inner world on the other two dimensions.

In other words, it is precisely because of the continuous influence of trace amounts of red radiation that the human soul will be more easily corrupted, negative emotions will grow and increase, and the phenomenon of wandering in the reflection world will increase.

This entire logical chain is called "heterogeneous infiltration" by this theory.

It refers to the red radiation from the inner world that penetrates into the real world and the reflected world bit by bit, constantly affecting the two dimensions.

This theory is the school of soul psychology that states that "the other world is formed by the evil in the collective subconscious of human beings."

He believed that the evil in the collective subconscious of the souls of all people in this world gave rise to the inner world, and that the inner world in turn infiltrated the real world, leading to a continuous increase in entropy, and everything would continue to deteriorate.

In order to curb this entropy increase called "Xenosphere Infiltration", it is necessary to create a "human anchor" and perform a "pilgrimage" ceremony.

The day when the procession ceremony is held is called the procession day.

This was the information Ji Li knew, but he didn't know the specific content of the parade ceremony.

"The so-called human anchor is a person who can eliminate the infiltration of different dimensions in a certain area."

Yan Xiyu explained and threw another dart at Ji Li's target:

"This person must be able to make the human soul feel at ease and comforted. Even his presence itself can promote the growth of positive emotions..."

Ji Li's expression changed: "Celebrity?"

Yan Xiyu nodded: "The reason why Silla gradually gained a foothold in the entertainment industry is indeed largely due to the lack of human anchor when it was just separated from Asia Union."

"It can be said that those girl groups themselves are mass-produced human anchors."

The Asian Federation is the Asian Federation.

"It is used to stimulate positive emotions in the human spirit, thereby offsetting the effects of alien infiltration... What a cool move." The moment Ji Li saw Yan Xiyu continue to throw darts at his target, she raised her hand and knocked it back onto her own target.

At the same time, his own bullet successfully hit the bull's eye, and he smiled:
"So, we can see the little sister dancing on the stage on the parade day?"

Yan Xiyu glared at him fiercely, holding the dart still:
"You're not that old."

"Although the existence of entertainment stars can indeed serve as an anchor for people, they are only a means of stability. A city's parade day is not that simple. You must have heard of the title of 'third mayor'?"

Ji Li nodded and threw a dart casually. Yan Xiyu's eyes lit up and he knocked him away, but the effect was not as good as Ji Li's where both darts hit the target.

He spread his hands:
“The technology is not up to standard.”

Yan Xiyu seemed inexplicably relieved and snorted, "Nothing compared to you."

Ji Li said: "I know the Third Mayor. One of the functions of the Third Contact Defense Team is to protect the Third Mayor."

Ji Li understood a little bit when the three elder brothers gave him conditions:
"So actually the Third Mayor is a specific person who anchors the city? Why is he called the Third Mayor?"

"Because contact with evil is classified as 'third-category contact', and a city has a mayor and a deputy mayor, the remaining one is naturally the 'third mayor'."

After Yan Xiyu gave a brief explanation, he continued, "On the day of the tour, the 'Third Mayor' will tour the city along a specific route. This is a big event."

"Not only will there be a group of human spirits observing, but the tour route will also be very long, so the police station will be responsible for clearing the road, and the Third Contact Defense Team will be responsible for closely protecting the 'Third Mayor'."

"The Special Management Bureau, that is, us, is responsible for risk investigation, and the reason for the personnel changes is also related to this."

"What about the formation of the Special Investigation Division? It doesn't look like it just happened to coincide with the Pilgrimage Day." Ji Li said, throwing another dart, but Yan Xiyu knocked it away with a flash of his eyes:

"I think so."

Yan Xiyu did not go deeper into this topic, obviously feeling a little shy about it.

Filin did not reveal much about the establishment of the Special Investigation Division, only saying that it was the result of a negotiation between Flash Street and the Special Management Bureau.

Li Zheguang believes that the trigger for the cooperation is to track down possible "predators".

As for Yan Xiyu, it seems that there is a new and different direction.

However, neither of them delved into this topic for the time being. After all, they were not familiar enough to exchange information casually.

"That's basically it. The things you did on the Pilgrimage Day can help you accumulate points. If you want to exchange something, you can go directly to our quartermaster."

Cool girl pointed to a bald man in the corner who was looking at a computer.

"As for the subsequent daily action arrangements and specific action plans, I will personally distribute them to you."

"You can go find that person later to get the details, our hidden network leader."

Yan Xiyu pointed at a young man sitting behind a bunch of screens not far away. The man had dark circles under his eyes and his skin was very pale, but his eyes were bright.

"That's all for the basic situation handover. Now it's almost time for lunch."

Yan Xiyu picked up the phone and glanced at it, then swiped to the address book and whispered to Ji Li:
"Dinners outside work hours can only go to a few designated restaurants. Otherwise, it will be considered a violation of discipline. Everyone here knows the specific situation."

"Today is your first day at work. We can have a welcome party together to get to know each other. I'll order food..."

Before he finished speaking, the guy with glasses who had been peeking at him from a distance suddenly raised his hand and raised his voice:

"Boss! Order the new Love!"

Yan Xiyu's hand froze as he just dialed the number of the "New Love" restaurant. His red eyes stared fiercely at the man with glasses:
"It doesn't mean that we have to be extravagant when new people come. The money spent is from everyone's funds."

Then he said coldly:
"We're eating in the cafeteria today."

Then he put away his phone and walked out without looking back.

Ji Li looked at the other person's departing back, full of question marks.

At this time, the guy with glasses walked up to Ji Li awkwardly:

"Well, was she about to make a phone call to order food?"

"Your boss has schizophrenia?"

The glasses guy's expression changed, and he pulled him down and said:
"Shit, don't say that. Pei Taiyu will definitely tell on you if he hears it."

He pointed at the energetic young man with dark circles under his eyes in the corner, who was the "person in charge of the hidden network" that Yan Xiyu had just pointed out to Ji Li.

"He was promoted by the boss, and he likes to tell tales... Come on, let me tell you something in secret..."

After being pulled into a corner and listening to the interpretation of the glasses brother, Ji Li's expression was a little subtle -

"Anti-bone?"

"She's not a rebel, is she?" The man with glasses waved his hand. "How should I put it? She's just like that. She knows her limits when it comes to serious matters, but usually..."

"She's quite rebellious. She goes east and west when she says east, and goes west and east when she says west... I got anxious just now. In fact, if we pay a little attention and don't let her feel that we are 'commanding' her, she will be easy to talk to."

Ji Li thought about Yan Xiyu exchanging targets with him and throwing darts, and it seemed to be true.

"It's a bit interesting..."

"What do you say, buddy? I'll take you to the cafeteria?"

"You guys go first, I have something else to do."

"Oh..." The man with glasses suddenly rubbed his hands, a little shy on his face, "Um...what is your relationship with Operator Jin?"

Ji Li immediately stared at the other person, his eyes narrowed:
"My wife."

The man with glasses left as if he had aged ten years.
