I created the Anomaly Control Bureau

Chapter 1012, Section 1007: The Mad Prophet

"The Divine Eye?" Ma En asked with a hint of doubt.

At this moment, far more thoughts were flashing through his mind than he showed. Maren found it hard to connect the mysterious and unpredictable divine eye in his memory with the somewhat overly energetic girl before him, but it had indeed said...

After it has taken in the Cherubim, it will come to find you.

Moreover, this matter is much easier to understand if we look at it from the other side. Shenxiao once told him to be careful of Ning Changkong, the "prophet," but at the time he didn't understand what that meant, and even Shenxiao himself probably didn't understand.

Looking back, the initial predicament Ning Changkong encountered seemed to hint at something.

She felt that her parents had been replaced by demons because the image of her parents had become that of demons in her eyes. But thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem normal to think that her parents had been replaced and to hide away just because of this.

Logically speaking, if her parents were demons, she should have been able to recognize them as people she knew.

Unless this feeling stems from the rift, perhaps those two demons weren't actually her parents, but a relationship formed after the rift, then what she truly sensed was wrong...

Perhaps it is the fault itself.

The girl, completely oblivious to Maren's surprise, continued energetically:

“That’s right, you suggested this name to me. But the name ‘Divine Eye’ is quite fitting, because no alien disguise can fool my eyes.”

As she spoke, she revealed a confident expression, her arms crossed, making her look nothing like a mentally ill person, but rather a genuine alien capture expert.

Hearing this, Kania was clearly somewhat helpless, wanting to sigh but holding back:
"Yes, Ning Changkong is an alien hunter. Well, let's put it this way, the things she sees are a little different from most people. For example, some normal people are aliens in her eyes."

"Everyone else seemed strange to her."

Ning Changkong said with a hint of dissatisfaction:

"It's not their strange shapes, it's their essence."

Marx and Engels asked with some curiosity:
"Could you give a few examples? For instance, how do you perceive us?"

Under Kania's increasingly helpless gaze, the girl revealed an excited smile:
"Of course, Cao Yan is either a woman or a man with brown skin, I can't quite tell, and she's wearing luxurious clothes that I've never seen before, maybe some kind of court attire."

"As for Shadow, it may sound a little strange, but he is indeed a 'shadow,' and so is Bliss. He is a boy, and he does have ram horns and hooves."

"So they don't have any mental problems at all, they just realized their true nature. In fact, this is a very common situation in mental hospitals. Most people can't realize the true nature of others."

"Therefore, when someone realizes the discrepancy between their own nature and the perceptions of others, they are sent here. Many imprisonments are due to their ignorance."

After listening to her classic psychiatric speech, Kania pointed out rather bluntly:

"At the same time, you overlooked the fact that many of them have lost their ability to take care of themselves, and some even cause considerable trouble for those around them. For example, you have a tendency to do so."

The girl turned her head and met her gaze:
"So you want to send me underground?"

Hearing this question, Kania realized that she might have gone a bit too far: "No, what I mean is that you have that tendency, but it's far from a really serious situation. No one would want to send someone underground; those are all truly vicious criminals."

"For example, certain serial killers who have committed numerous crimes."

Marx and Engels had a vague feeling:

"Can you tell me a few? Are there any particularly notorious or dangerous criminals operating underground?"

Upon hearing this, Ning Changkong immediately became interested:

"Speaking of danger, many prisoners in the underground district are very dangerous. For example, the former professional killer, The Smiling Man, is said to have been imprisoned here after his death. The cult leader, Sue, who once led countless terrorist attacks, is also receiving treatment here."

"These aren't the really exciting ones. There are many more bizarre legends in the hospital, such as a silver devil in the underground who can corrupt others with words, a female demon who can control darkness, and alien prisoners who are secretly hidden by the church. But these are nothing compared to the legends of the mental hospital."

Ning Changkong deliberately dragged out his words as he spoke:

"It is said that in the deepest room underground, the most dangerous prisoner in the world is imprisoned, and the most unforgivable sinner. There are even rumors that many angels guard that prison, and that retired saints recite scriptures there to cleanse the sinner of his unforgivable evil deeds."

"You must have guessed by now that I've mentioned this. The only person in the whole world who has received such treatment is Qin Luan, the incarnation of the demon who once tried to assassinate the Returnee, and a sinner despised by everyone."

Ma En blinked.

This is a name that is not surprising at all.

But Kania interrupted at this moment:

"Don't mention the name of the demon. It will bring bad luck. Besides, it's just an unfounded rumor. How could such a terrifying demon be imprisoned here?"

Although she refuted Ning Changkong, Ma En was more inclined to believe what "Divine Eye" said, and she had also revealed a lot of information to him in her words just now.

For example, D17, Sull, and even the Dark Goddess Karina seem to be imprisoned underground. It seems that the Cherubim's cooperation with her may not be so sincere. If this is true, then he probably doesn't need to worry too much about Karina's problem for a while.

Besides, they seem to know about the existence of angels, and that "demons" also exist. Even Marne himself heard someone expelling the "devil" from his body while he was half-asleep yesterday.

However, this demon and devil do not seem to correspond entirely to the previous situation. For example, the former demon king, Suer, seems to be regarded as a human. At least Ning Changkong did not call him a demon, but referred to him as a cult leader.

On the contrary, Qin Luan and D17, who were once human, were called demons, while the goddess Karina was regarded as a devil, and his own coma was also regarded as some kind of devil possession.

As for the alien prisoners, it is likely related to a major enemy.

But there's something even more important besides these.

That is, the Returnee seems to be a real physical existence. He was even assassinated by Qin Luan, the incarnation of the demon. And this doesn't sound like some kind of religious metaphor. In other words, it seems that the Returnee has really returned.

Regardless of the method.
