Evil Spirit Consultant

Chapter 73 Koizumi Ling's Ability
When Yang Liu heard Koizumi Ling's death warning about herself, she raised her eyelids and was actually calmer than her.

"Oh?"

"It's true. I didn't lie to you! Judging from the location of the puncture wound on the chest, it should have directly injured the heart, causing excessive blood loss and death..."

Yang Liu raised her hand to stop Xiaoquan Ling's eager defense:

"It's not that I don't trust you. After all, I've seen it so many times, so I still have some trust in you.

But don't worry, since we already know about this situation in advance, we just need to avoid it. There is still time, right? We can take our time."

Hearing this, Koizumi Ling took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down: "...Yes!"

Yang Liu smiled and handed her a glass of water, as if the person who was about to die was not herself:
"Calm down? Then let's start researching bit by bit. First... can you tell me the approximate time of my death? Is it today or tomorrow? Or even further in the future?"

"Well..." Xiaoquan Ling looked at Yang Liu hesitantly, "I don't know the exact time, but judging from the amount, there should be another accident at least until tomorrow."

After hearing her description, Yang Liu stroked his chin and suddenly became curious: "Come to think of it, I still don't know what your superpowers mean to you."

Koizumi Ling hesitated for a moment, and seemed to consider that Yang Liu's current situation was quite critical. Based on her trust in him, she answered honestly:
"It's... black."

"black?"

“Yes, I don’t know since when, but I can see some black fog-like things around me.

These black mists are very rare under normal circumstances, but they will suddenly increase on a dying creature.

And as the time of death approaches, the black fog will become more and more. When the wound turns completely black, the creature attached to the black fog will die.

So by judging the amount of black fog, I can roughly determine the time when the accident occurred, but there is no way to be too precise. "

"Oh? Then how can you tell the type of person who is about to be injured through this black fog?" Yang Liu was a little curious.

“That…the black color will be concentrated in the injured area.

For example, the poison gas I mentioned earlier, in my eyes, is a black fog gathering in the opponent's lungs, and extending many small branches all over the body. But this identification method sometimes fails, just like burns and frostbite cannot be identified. If the death is caused by falling from a height, the area where the black fog is distributed will also look like being hit by a car.

And if the wound is too large, it is impossible to judge the specific situation, just like the external manifestations of a large-scale burn and a whole body being crushed are also very similar..."

Seeing Xiaoquan Ling counting on her fingers to recall the past situation, Yang Liu's eyes became gentle, and suddenly reached out and touched her head:
“You tried so hard!”

Xiaoquan Ling was startled by Yang Liu's action, but after hearing his words, she suddenly straightened her chest and said, "Of course I worked hard, you can praise me more!"

"Oh! That's the momentum!" Yang Liu gave a thumbs up to Koizumi Ling with both hands.

After being interrupted by him, Koizumi Ling's originally nervous mood eased a lot, and she was finally able to regain her usual calmness.

She asked Yang Liu to stand up and carefully observed his body from front to back.

"The black is concentrated in your chest area, and there are both front and back, so it should be a penetrating wound. The wound in the back is larger, and the wound in the front is smaller. It looks like something must have entered your body from the front, and then formed a cavity effect...

Strange, what kind of thing could cause such an injury? Could it be that there was an explosion nearby, and the small stone that was blown away just hit the teacher's chest? No, the shock wave generated by the explosion of the tire of a large truck should also be enough to push the stone to produce such destructive power. No, we should also consider the possibility that it could be stabbed from the back to the front, or maybe it fell from a high place and was finally pierced by something upright, an outdoor umbrella? Or maybe it was a car accident..."

Xiaoquan Ling began to think about similar accidents that might occur in daily life, but Yang Liu had the answer in his mind the moment he heard her description:

"Not those, but the gun."

"Huh?!" Koizumi Ling was shocked. "That's not impossible, but is there any gun in Japan? Are you planning to go to the mountains for a trip tomorrow and get accidentally injured by a hunter?!"

Yang Liu looked at her worried expression and decided to tell a white lie: "Yes, I was planning to go out and have some fun during the weekend, but it seems really dangerous. Should I cancel my stay-at-home plan?"

"Please stay at home!" Koizumi Ling shouted anxiously.

Yang Liu laughed and said, "Don't worry, the teacher won't imitate the behavior of the supporting characters in the story. Since he knows that something like this will happen, he will definitely stay at home."

"Just in case, you still have to be careful even when you stay at home. Teacher, you still have to protect your chest..."

"Good idea!" Yang Liu gave a thumbs up. "By the way, where is my wound exactly? I'll see if I can tie some more cushioning."

"Ah, yes!"

Xiaoquan Ling drew a small circle on Yang Liu's chest and back: "It's right here. If it's behind, it's probably around this position..."

"It will be much easier now that we know the exact location." Yang Liu nodded gratefully to Xiaoquan Ling, "Thank you so much, you helped me a lot."

"No, actually this is the first time I've helped someone so smoothly..."

Seeing Yang Liu listen to his advice, Xiaoquan Ling was also very happy, and immediately suggested: "Teacher, do you want me to go to your house tomorrow to help you keep an eye on it?"

Yang Liu shook her head and refused decisively: "This is not appropriate. After all, I am a bachelor. Don't worry, I will be extra careful tomorrow, and I should be able to find a bunch of people to accompany me."

"Well... okay..." Koizumi Ling's eyes revealed worry.

"Don't talk about that. Isn't your friend still having a stomachache?"

"Ah! Yes! Yako!!"

Watching Xiaoquan Ling hurriedly take the medicine and leave the health room, Yang Liu touched his chest again and murmured in a very low voice:
"It really helped a lot..."

When I got home, I looked at the location of the church's lecture tomorrow marked in the newspaper.

Yang Liu thought about it, opened her cupboard, and took out the thickened canvas bag that was as tall as a person.

There were more stains on the bag that looked like mud than before. They were caused by Yang Liu carrying it across mountains and rivers to hunt third-stage ghosts.

Yang Liu unzipped the bag and skillfully found what she wanted inside, then nodded in satisfaction.
