Chapter 187 New Ability
The Forgotten Ghost obtained the spirituality of the female corpse, and thus gained strength growth and new abilities.

Right now, Li Leping decided to test where the upper limit of this ability lies.

With the strengthening of the forgotten spirit, more and more figures appeared around Dong Rui, and the road in front of him was full of gray figures. These people who existed in Dong Rui's memory were being captured by Li Leping A very different way of presentation.

Countless silhouettes are dark in color, everyone's face is lifeless, without any brilliance of living people, the whole street seems to be reduced to a street full of dead people, one after another silhouettes appear on the road, as if frozen Generally stand still.

These silhouettes appeared extremely fast, rows of silhouettes would appear almost every blink of an eye, and these were people who had been remembered by Dong Rui and appeared with the change of memory.

"It can be pushed forward by about three months."

Li Leping stared at the figures that filled the entire street, and at the same time felt the range of memory that these figures probably belonged to.

He couldn't see Dong Rui's experience, but he could feel the period in which these figures existed.

The farthest you can see is the person Dong Rui had contacted three months ago.

However, this is many times stronger than the female corpse's ability to push for only a few days.

"If I erase all these figures at this moment, does it mean that these people will lose their memory of Dong Rui?"

The so-called figures are actually the carrier of Dong Rui's memory of these people.

It's just that Li Leping, who now has new abilities, has the ability to use these carriers to counter-invade the past and make these people forget Dong Rui.

Li Leping felt that at this moment, he seemed to be the master of Dong Rui's memory, as long as he moved his mind a little, Dong Rui would become a person forgotten by the world.

For the vast majority of people, if no one they have contacted in the past three months can remember him, it basically means that his family, friends, and colleagues will all lose their memory of him.

A person who does not exist in the memory of others will only become a monster in the eyes of others. At the same time, this person loses the social circle that he spent more than ten years, or even decades, in an instant.

A person who lives in the real world, but finds that his relatives and friends have no impression of him at all.

When people find themselves in such a world, they will inevitably go crazy in despair.

"So be it."

The weirdness and peculiarity of the supernatural means made Li Leping a little surprised, and at the same time withdrew the power of the Forgotten Ghost.

Those figures that filled Dong Rui's side also dissipated, as if they had never existed.

In fact, these figures do not exist in reality, they are figures that only Li Leping can see.

At this moment, Dong Rui's expression was obviously much more relaxed, because he felt that the cold aura lingering around him suddenly disappeared without leaving any trace, as if the weird chill was just a temporary illusion.

Looking at Li Leping who was deep in thought not far away, Dong Rui didn't dare to interrupt, so he could only stand still, waiting for the next instruction.

"Looking at it this way, this ability is pretty tasteless."

Li Leping rubbed his chin, thought carefully for a while about the use occasions of this ability, but found that there are very few scenes where this ability can be used.

Because in the supernatural confrontation, whether it is against people or against ghosts, the purpose is to kill or suppress the other party.

And this ability to make people forget someone doesn't seem to have any benefit to the confrontation between spirits, and cannot be used as an effective means.

In the fight between life and death, making people in the memory of the enemy forget the memory of the enemy seems to have no meaning in changing the situation of the battle, right?
Unless, someone is living in someone else's memory.

Then in this case, this ability may be useful.

But the question is, will there be such a person?

A person who does not exist in the real world, but lives in the memory of others.

Should be unlikely.

And at this time.

In front of him, the sound of the engine of a large car was heard, and at the corner of the intersection behind Dong Rui, trucks painted with camouflage came in one after another, and it didn't take long to occupy one side of the street.

Chen Zhong brought people to clean up the scene.

In the past, these tasks were mainly carried out by the liaison team, but now Tang Ziyi and two of his team members should have fallen on the way to trace the route of the female corpse. It will cause harm to society, and it is estimated that they will not be allowed to serve as members of the contact group in the future.

After all, people whose memories have been affected by ghosts always have unstable factors in the eyes of the headquarters.

"Director Li."

The truck stopped, and Chen Zhong jumped out of a truck compartment, and his address for Li Leping also changed.

It seems that the efficiency of the headquarters is quite high, and the official appointment should have been issued.

Li Leping looked at Chen Zhong who was trotting over, and said, "It's too strange for you to call me that, just call me by my name."

"Yes, Li Leping." Chen Zhong called Li Leping in a tone of obedience, which always made him feel weird.

Rubbing his forehead, Li Leping didn't intend to give up on this issue.

He asked, "Did Tang Ziyi find it?"

Chen Zhong replied: "Not yet, but it should be soon. Before Team Leader Tang disappeared, in order to find out the route, he had already blocked the route in advance. Now I have let the people who were stationed on the route spread around. I found it, it should be..."

Speaking of this, he paused, then lowered his voice, and continued in a sad tone: "It should be gone soon."

The supernatural event that Chen Zhong experienced today not only overturned his perception of the world, but also made his heart as a living person stabbed several times with a knife.

There are still many corpses parked in the military off-road vehicle farther behind Li Leping. These are soldiers under Chen Zhong's command.

They died like this, at the hands of Li Gui.

A group of soldiers who could call out their names disappeared just like that. They just had to meet the female corpse, and their memory was directly erased. Their brains became blank on the spot, and they were killed without even a chance to react. up.

From this, it can be deduced that Tang Ziyi may end up similar to these people, but Tang Ziyi has been in the blockade area, so the body has not been found.

Even if it wasn't for Li Leping's accidental phone call, the headquarters may not have noticed such a big hole in the Dachuan City Liaison Team until now.

This not only made Chen Zhong feel heartache, but also made him feel aggrieved.

Li Leping looked at the complicated expression on Chen Zhong's face, and he expressed his understanding. After experiencing these things, ordinary people will have this kind of mentality.

However, everything that happened on this route today is acceptable in Li Leping's eyes.

In his opinion, this incident was handled properly in terms of results.

Maybe this kind of mentality is very indifferent, but so what?
Except for a little sigh and the departure of another person beside him, Li Leping can do nothing more than that.

Seeing too many dead people made his heart numb. In the past, he would give these dead people a sympathetic look.

But now, it is impossible for him to express his sorrow to everyone who died in a supernatural event. His few emotions became more numb and indifferent from the moment he witnessed the death of Zhang Xiaoxiao and his family.

Their deaths were so unexpected, so shocking.

However, their deaths also raised Li Leping's psychological endurance.

After all, there are not many familiar people around Li Leping, and the rest are a group of strangers. They were killed by ghosts, and it is impossible to arouse Li Leping's emotions.

Li Leping felt that such an inhumane feeling was quite good.

Pity and sorrow should be reserved for those who attend the memorial service. He does not need such emotions when dealing with supernatural events, and it will only become a burden for him when dealing with supernatural events.

"The aftermath will be left to you."

Li Leping looked at Chen Zhong, and said calmly, "If Tang Ziyi is missing, please contact me."

He is only responsible for dealing with supernatural phenomena, and he has no interest in the rest, such as collecting corpses or filling out reports, and will not have the time to participate.

"Yes." Chen Zhong straightened his waist and saluted with respect.

Li Leping nodded, just as he was about to leave.

Suddenly, there was a mournful cry that resounded through the entire street from behind.

Looking back, you can see a person in camouflage uniform, holding a corpse dragged out of an off-road vehicle, crying bitterly.

Surrounded by a group of soldiers in camouflage uniforms, some of them wiped the corners of their eyes with their hands, and some turned their backs to the crowded place, as if they didn't want people to see their vulnerable side.

Li Leping looked at the man who was hugging the dead body tightly and crying bitterly, and asked, "Who is that?"

"The squad leader of that soldier."

Chen Zhong's nasal voice also became a little heavy. He closed his eyes and pinched the center of his brows to ease his emotions and prevent tears from flowing out of his eyes.

"Is that so..." Li Leping thought about it, and then said, "Do you want me to help him?"

As soon as these words came out, Chen Zhong's expression instantly became shocked.

"Help, help him?" He didn't understand what Li Leping meant.

"Let him forget that he had such a soldier, and maybe he won't be in such pain."

Li Leping spoke in a flat tone about something that was beyond common sense in Chen Zhong's eyes.

"Forget, forget that there was this person?" Chen Zhong's voice was a bit sharp, and he stuttered.

Can this really be done?

"Yes." Li Leping saw the meaning in Chen Zhong's shocking eyes, and replied directly.

"Let's forget it." Chen Zhongyu couldn't bear to look at the squad leader who was crying bitterly while holding the soldier in his arms.

"The pain of losing a comrade-in-arms may haunt them all their lives, but we always grow stronger through this pain."

"Besides, it would be too strange if this kind of sadness was artificially obliterated."

At this time, Chen Zhong seemed to realize that what he said had accidentally hurt the friendly army, so he hurriedly explained to Li Leping: "Of course what I said was not..."

"You don't need to explain." Li Leping shook his head.

"You're right," he admitted.

"Let's do this first, I have something else to do, so let's go first."

After leaving these words, Li Leping turned and walked towards the black SUV.

Chen Zhong didn't say a word, he raised his hand and saluted until the lonely figure disappeared on the road.

"Hey, what does Li Leping look like?"

Just when he turned around and was about to direct the aftermath work, such a question suddenly popped up in his mind.

……

Dial the operator.

"Please speak." He Xueyan's familiar voice came.

Li Leping said: "The incident code-named 'Forgotten' has been dealt with, and the files can be sealed up after recording, and those cordons can be dismantled after Tang Ziyi's whereabouts are found."

"So fast?"

He Xueyan was amazed in her heart, but she finished the recording soon. When the call was over, she would hand over the file to the archives room.

"Is there any conclusion from the headquarters?" Li Leping asked.

Of course, He Xueyan knew what Li Leping was referring to. She had clearly organized her words in advance, and replied ably: "Yes, Su Hong has issued the highest-level arrest warrant, and you are determined to be the person in charge of Dachuan City." Your successor, this appointment has been issued, and you will have the highest authority over all supernatural events in Okawa City, and all departments must do their best to cooperate with you."

"I don't care about these things." Li Leping's tone was ordinary, but it was majestic that could not be refuted. "There is such a trouble in Dachuan City. It is impossible for the headquarters to just mention Su Hong's problem."

"Yes, the headquarters does not plan to take it all at once."

Suddenly, the voice on the other end of the phone changed.

It wasn't He Xueyan's soft voice, but it was also a voice that impressed Li Leping deeply.

"Wang Xiaoming?"

Li Leping and Wang Xiaoming only talked once, but he was very familiar with Wang Xiaoming's calm tone.

"It's me. I just wanted your operator to inform the headquarters of the compensation that I plan to give you, and I just saw you call."

Wang Xiaoming's voice was extraordinarily calm, and he explained clearly the reason why he answered the phone in one sentence.

As for He Xueyan, she had already got up and stood aside, giving up her seat to Wang Xiaoming.

Her level is not high enough, so naturally she cannot know the status of Wang Xiaoming, who has been in the research position and is strictly protected, in the headquarters. Minister Cao Yanhua cleared the conference room.

Li Leping didn't change his tone because of the change of the person he was talking to, and he still said calmly: "I'm really flattered that you came to inform me personally. Am I taking it too seriously?"

"You don't have to be so eccentric." Wang Xiaoming never had enough time, so he naturally wouldn't spend it on small talk.

"The compensation given to you by the headquarters is a ghost candle."

"Ghost candle?" Li Leping was a little surprised that this thing was really made at this time.

Wang Xiaoming mistakenly thought that Li Leping didn't know the purpose of the ghost candle, so he explained briefly: "Well, the function is very simple. Light this candle, and before the candle is extinguished, as long as it is within the range covered by the candlelight, people can Guaranteed not to be killed by the ghosts, in absolute safety."

"Based on that kerosene lamp?" Li Leping asked tentatively.

"Do you think I will reveal so much?" Wang Xiaoming replied.

In fact, as soon as this sentence was said, Li Leping already knew the origin of the ghost candle.
