In the investigation of paranormal events

Chen Ran and Jiang Cheng arrived at a bar, or more accurately, a club.

This bar is located in a relatively remote area with few people coming and going; you might not even notice it if you don't look closely.

The bar has a nice ambiance and atmosphere, but the only downside is that it's sparsely populated, which is probably related to its location.

"Is this place really that remote?"

Jiang Cheng looked at the bar, even the edges of the entrance were a bit old, but after going inside, he found that the bar was not as bad as it looked from the outside, on the contrary, it was quite nice!

It has almost everything you could want! It looks clean and tidy, very comfortable, comparable to some high-end, luxurious bars. Apart from the exterior, the interior is almost flawless.

"Hmm...not bad."

Jiang Cheng paused for a moment before speaking.

The bar was rather quiet, with only a few people inside. There was only one server, who was probably the bartender. He was wiping glasses with a handkerchief and didn't notice the two people at all.

Chen Ran walked over and said, "Two Deep Water Bombs, please."

The bartender glanced at Chen Ran, then responded with a simple smile, everything understood without words.

Then Chen Ran found a place to sit down.

The atmosphere in the bar was very quiet, with only a few people scattered around, which made Jiang Cheng wonder how a bar like this could stay in business.

At this moment, everyone in the bar turned to look at the two of them, a smile appearing on their lips.

"Aren't you curious about what this bar is like?"

"This bar is really strange."

"Although the outside is terrible, the inside is surprisingly good."

Chen Ran smiled and said, "Because this is a specially designed bar, a bar opened specifically for containment experts. You can think of it this way: we containment experts usually relax and have fun here."

"Let's exchange some information and strengthen our relationship."

Jiang Cheng exclaimed in shock, "No wonder I felt something was off about this bar!"

Jiang Cheng looked at these people and found it quite strange. They were all different in appearance and dressed in different clothes, not to mention that they had all gathered here by chance.

"Okay, let me introduce it to you."

Jiang Cheng looked around and saw that most of the seats in the bar were empty, and there were only a few people in the entire room.

Are they all containment experts?

Jiang Cheng muttered to herself.

If that's the case, there seem to be more containment experts than I thought.

"They are all containment experts from Longhua City, but they don't come often. They only come a few times a week, and some of them hardly ever come at all."

"These are paper figures," Chen Ran said as she approached a table.

On the table were several glasses of wine, and four people were gathered around it, all looking at Chen Ran with scrutinizing eyes.

"Long time no see, Chen Ran."

The man known as "Paper Man" greeted us warmly. He was dressed neatly, almost spotless, and had a smiling face, like a smiling tiger.

Chen Ran ignored him and continued, "The magician."

"Demon-Slaying King".

"The Doll Girl"

There were four people at the table: two young men, one middle-aged man, and a girl who looked to be about 16 years old.

Jiang Cheng: "?"

Seeing Jiang Cheng's puzzled look, Chen Ran explained, "Ahem! These are just their code names, don't worry about them."

"Are you a newcomer?"

The magician, wearing a black top hat, asked casually.

Chen Ran: "I guess so."

Magician: "Welcome to this family."

"Don't mind me, let's get to know each other. My name is Yu Xiaoxiao."

The girl introduced herself.

She has a delicate face, fair skin, and long pigtails, making her incredibly cute and captivating.

"Haha! It's been a long time since we've had a new employee at headquarters, so this time it's on me!"

"Everyone, drink up!" Old King of Demon Slayers said enthusiastically.

"Ghost Eye, Jiang Cheng," Jiang Cheng introduced herself.

"Ghost Eye? Could it be..." Upon hearing this code name, the group was shocked, and a thought had already crossed their minds.

Upon hearing Jiang Cheng's words, Yu Xiaoxiao had a guess in her mind.

"Ghost Eye? I haven't heard that code name in a long time. The last time was when..." The magician stopped mid-sentence.

"Chen Ran, want to have a drink? We're all brothers, and we have some new friends tonight. Let's drink until we drop," the paper figure chimed in.

Chen Ran simply shook her head, a smile playing on her lips: "No, we have something to do. Maybe next time."

Chen Ran then took Jiang Cheng away. Although Jiang Cheng was somewhat confused, she didn't care anymore. More important to her was...

"Chen Ran, do all containment specialists have code names?"

"Yes, it's a necessary form of address, frequently used in operations. We generally don't call each other by our real names; only very close friends know each other's names."

"In other words, the containment experts only address each other by code names; their real names are not actually used because that's a rule from headquarters."

"The reason for doing this is to protect the information of the containment experts and prevent leaks, including their names."

Listening to Chen Ran's explanation, Jiang Cheng asked, "So what's your code name?"

"Hypnotist".

"A hypnotist?"

As she spoke, Chen Ran took out a pocket watch and waved it in front of Jiang Cheng. A wave of dizziness instantly exploded in Jiang Cheng's mind!

"Now you understand, right?"

"hiss……"

Jiang Cheng gasped, regaining her composure, and continued, "I understand. Were there any other people named Ghost Eye at headquarters before?"

Hearing this, Chen Ran stopped in his tracks. He had been a containment expert for five years and had a certain understanding of most things.

"It seems...there is..."

"That was a long time ago, about ten years ago, I'm not too sure."

"Oh my! Where did this little brother come from? He's so cute! Chen Ran, won't you introduce him to me?"

Just as the two were talking, a charming voice came from behind them. They turned around immediately and saw a woman with a hot figure, wearing a sexy bodysuit and an S-shaped curve slowly walking towards them.

"Snake girl."

Chen Ran spoke calmly.

She gave him a flirtatious wink, her lips slightly parted: "You're my type. Are you a newcomer?"

"Ghost Eye Jiang Cheng"

Upon hearing Jiang Cheng mention the words "ghost eyes," the woman paused for a second, then licked her lips, a blush rising to her cheeks: "I like it even more now."

She leaned close to Jiang Cheng's ear, teasingly saying, "Little brother, want to team up with me? I'll take you under my wing, and we can do some fun things together~"

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng gasped, pushed her away, straightened his collar, and said coldly, "No, I have things to do. Also, please have some self-respect."

Seeing this, Chen Ran took out his pocket watch and waved it in front of the woman. Before the snake woman could react, she was hypnotized, her eyes became dull, and her body remained motionless.

"Alright, let's go."

"Don't worry about what happened just now. She's always like this. She teased me when I first came here, and it's not just me, everyone else does it too."

"Wait...you mean...?" Jiang Cheng's face showed a look of shock.

"Mm." Chen Ran nodded.

She even preys on little girls and older men?!

"The snake woman is very... cough cough!"

"In short, her usual hobbies are hanging out with different people..."

Halfway through her sentence, Chen Ran smiled at Jiang Cheng, revealing a meaningful expression.
