The Mysterious Recovery of the Forgotten World

Chapter 525 The Strangeness in the Garden
Osaka International Airport.

In addition to the many pick-up personnel sent by the Lingshe, as soon as he stepped out of the plane, Gu Li saw a welcome red carpet had been laid in front of the gangway, and on both sides of the red carpet, a row of men in black suits stood upright. Standing there, it seems to have been waiting for a long time.

And when Gu Li just walked down the gangway, when his feet just landed on the first step, these men in suits immediately bowed at ninety degrees in unison, and their movements were neat.

Even the crew members behind him stood in a row around the hatch at this moment, bending and bowing as if they were sending some important person off.

It seemed that the person who got off the plane was not a ghost master from a foreign country, but the prime minister of his own country.

This kind of reception etiquette and specifications, no matter whether it is a show or not, at least the attitude is displayed, and the pomp is sufficient.

"No wonder rich people like to go abroad. After they have the right to speak, they are uncles. When did China give me such a ostentation? Even when I went to the headquarters for a meeting, the seats were all made of gold. The coffin cart, I am afraid that I will wake up in Dajing City as a ghost, it is very unlucky."

Looking at the two rows of men in black who passed by, Gu Li felt a little emotional after feeling such a pomp, and he didn't know who he was talking about.

It has to be said that there are indeed differences in attitudes towards ghost masters at home and abroad.

From the standpoint of maintaining stability, the domestic headquarters has a very vague attitude towards the ghost masters under its command.

On the one hand, ghost masters are highly valued in the era of spiritual recovery, but on the other hand, ghost masters themselves are regarded as unstable factors, and they are secretly on guard. This makes it increasingly difficult for the current headquarters to recruit responsible persons .

When personal force is enough to surpass the collective, even if this force is at the cost of shortening life, but under the influence of one's own ability, if you can be a bully in one world, why bother to be under the command of the headquarters? Where is the person in charge?
The right to mobilize a city sounds very tempting, but this tempting right corresponds to an obligation, and the obligation of the person in charge is to deal with dangerous and mysterious events. Even captain-level ghost masters may die in it.

With such advantages and disadvantages, most ghost masters are naturally more willing to set up their own businesses and seek a little profit in the city.

In fact, just relying on this small profit is enough for the family of the ghost master to enjoy the wealth and status that they could not have in this life.

"Then why don't you consider switching to the Spirit Exorcism Society? In fact, with the status of a ghost master, it can be said that it is easy to become a Japanese citizen, not to mention that the Spirit Elimination Society is currently facing a situation where no one can use it. A master like you Ghosts will definitely be recruited as important talents."

Suddenly, a sudden voice came from Gu Li's side.

The one who spoke was a man who didn't seem to have any sense of presence, but he didn't know how long he had been following behind him.

The appearance of this man gives people a very ordinary and popular feeling, belonging to the kind that is hard to find in the crowd, and the clothes are also plain, black sweatpants and a gray down jacket, just like his face , nothing to note.

But the strange thing is that such a popular face is difficult to describe clearly, as if different people will have different descriptions after seeing this face, and then when these people turn their heads, they will suddenly find that they seem to have forgotten The person's looks.

"What you said, if according to what you said, you might as well apply to join the Exorcism Society. If you join the Exorcism Society, then I will join you." Gu Li smiled and said in a teasing tone .

"I'll forget it. I'm nostalgic, and I don't want to learn Japanese. When the time comes, you transfer 50 yuan to me. After I return to China, I will help you submit the application for canceling your nationality. You don't need to be there yourself."

The ordinary-looking man spoke again, his voice seemed a bit cold, but this coldness was not caused by answering Gu Li's teasing, but because his tone of speech was so lukewarm.

"Don't, don't, don't mess around, I'm very patriotic."

Gu Li repeatedly emphasized, because he knew that the grand ostentation in front of him was actually a meaningless vanity, just a show.

If he wanted to, he could put on this kind of show countless times in Daxi City. Every day, different male and female stars would come over and line up in two rows, one on the left and one on the right. kind of discourse.

But these vanities have no meaning to Gu Li.

He only cares about one thing, and that is domestic stability.

He knows very well that only when the domestic environment is stable can the order of Daxi City be kept stable.

If there is no order in a place, isn't it just like when the end comes, everyone has to struggle in desperation, when the order collapses and the law is just a piece of waste paper, only those who have the resources Treated as human beings, other survivors are just human resources, just simple numbers that can be abandoned and thrown away at any time.

After all, in the apocalypse, one less person is equal to one less mouth to eat.

However, even though Gu Li knew about these things, he still had that faint smile on his face at the moment.

Since the Exorcism Society is willing to present such a welcoming ceremony, there is of course no need for him to refuse.

It didn't take long.

Surrounded by a group of men in suits, he walked the red carpet of warm welcome.

The end of the red carpet was also full of people. These people seemed to be high-level executives of the Spirit Elimination Society. They immediately smiled politely after seeing Gu Li.

At this time, among the group of senior executives of the Spirit Elimination Society, a bald middle-aged man in a suit who stood at the front walked over.

What's worth mentioning is that when he walked up to Gu Li, this man with a high status actually bent down slightly and stretched out his hands, showing a sincere and warm reception.

"Mr. Gu, you are welcome to visit the island country. I am the president of the Spirit Elimination Society. My surname is Mishima."

The language Mishima greeted was not even Japanese, but Chinese. Although the language was not very standard, at least his attitude was lowered.

"I didn't expect the president of the Spirit Elimination Club to come and personally receive him."

Reaching out without hitting the smiling face, Gu Li stretched out his gloved hand and shook President Mishima's hand, while Xiao Yu, who was next to him, translated the sentence in fluent Japanese.

"I've heard of Mr. Gu's name for a long time."

Mishima said politely, and then set his sights on Xiao Yu and the stranger next to Gu Li.

"I don't know who these two are?" Mishima asked.

"This one is my translator, and this one is my assistant." Gu Li replied.

"assistant?"

After hearing Xiao Yu's translation, Mishima couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Judging from this woman's performance, she is indeed a very good translator, but the assistant next to Gu Li..."

Thinking to himself, Mishima quietly looked at Xiao Yu and the stranger again with his eyes.

Xiao Yu's language translation during the conversation between the two has already explained her identity, but Mishima has always been on guard against this strange man who is following Gu Li.

However, it is impossible to put this kind of vigilance on the table.

Soon, Mishima turned the topic back to Gu Li with great enthusiasm: "Mr. Gu, this way please, you are new to the island country, and we have prepared a welcome party for you at the Spirit Society, but it is urgent, so It may be a bit shabby, I hope Mr. Gu doesn't mind."

"Hehe, it's easy to say, but I hope that when I arrive at the venue, the materials I want can be delivered 'just in time'."

Gu Li didn't refuse, but the smile on his face revealed a hint of threat.

This time, he came to the island country to complete the task assigned by the ghost photo studio. Although there are still twenty hours before eleven o'clock at midnight, he doesn't want to play house with Mishima during this time.

"Please rest assured that the materials are already on their way. You also know that in today's society, electronic records are no longer suitable for some special situations."

Mishima gave a very reasonable explanation.

that's the truth.

The power of ghosts is far more terrifying than ordinary people imagined, and some horrible curses can even spread along the Internet and along telephone lines.

Under this kind of supernatural erosion, the seemingly advanced data recording methods will be eliminated, and they will return to the most primitive paper recording mode.

After all, as long as the file is sealed in a golden safe, no matter how powerful the spirit is, it will not be able to know, or even tamper with the text on the file.

"Okay, let's lead the way."

Gu Li nodded.

After a while, the convoy of the Spirit Elimination Society took Gu Li and the others to a Japanese-style garden.

This place is a bit outrageously spacious. The ancient architectural style is like a shrine. The ground here is covered with white sand, and the garden is full of flowing water. The houses are all in the style of ancient Japanese buildings. The houses are not high, and the overall shape is very simple. Except for the whitewashed walls on the surface, only the line color of the wooden house itself is left, and there is almost no redundant color.

"There seems to be something wrong with this place."

After getting out of the car, Gu Li frowned slightly.

He always felt that there was something secretly watching him in this place, which made him uneasy.

He subconsciously glanced at Li Leping who had just stepped out of the car, wanting to hear the opinion of the captain of Dachuan City.

But the problem is that Li Leping's face is as numb as a dead person, he can't see any expression at all, and he is also indifferent to the vague sense of unease at this moment.

"Mr. Gu, this way please."

Mishima came over at this moment and said very politely.

"Where is this place?" Gu Li didn't rush to leave, but stood in place and looked around, asking at the same time.

"Mr. Gu, this is a special place to receive VIPs. According to the conventions in the club, only noble guests are eligible to come here. This time, we will specially prepare for you and Mr. Jiang Hao to visit. This place cleans up the dust for you.”

Xiao Yu translated Mishima's flattering words.

"Reception? Why do I feel that something is wrong? It seems that in order to prevent us from making trouble, we were brought to your site. If there was a fight, wouldn't you have prepared eight hundred knives and axes behind the screen in advance? right?"

The smile on Gu Li's face still hasn't faded, but there is a hint of a hidden knife in this smile.

Hearing this, Mishima's face changed slightly, but he quickly returned to his normal expression, and then immediately explained: "Mr. Gu misunderstood, you are a distinguished guest, I can guarantee my reputation, this place is very safe."

very safe?
Gu Li smiled coldly.

What Mishima meant was: "When you are a guest, this place is safe and there will be no danger to you."

As for if you're not considered a guest, it's hard to say.

"Is there also an older generation of ghost masters sitting in the Spirit Elimination Club?"

Ignoring Mishima's words, Gu Li thought to himself, and was more concerned about the source of that uneasiness.

Because in his opinion, it is impossible for ordinary ghost masters to give him such a degree of uneasiness, at least the ghost masters at the captain level can give him such a feeling of uneasiness.

This sense of unease did not arise in his heart for no reason, but the unease produced by the ghost in his body out of avoidance.

It's just that it's unlikely that the younger generation of the island country has such a high-level figure. If there is, why should Lingshe lower its profile and ask for help?
Come to think of it, only the ghost masters of the older generation in the island country have such abilities.

"Sure enough, there are still some things that can be gnawed at within each country."

Although he vaguely guessed that there might be an older generation of ghost masters from the island country sitting here, Gu Li didn't have any intention of admitting cowardice.

Because in his opinion, the older generation of ghost masters in the island country who lurk in the dark probably won't live long, and can't use their supernatural power a few more times.

In other words, unless Gu Li tried to slaughter the entire Exorcism Club, otherwise, that old thing hiding in the dark could only turn a blind eye.

That is when Gu Xin had some guesses.

Mishima was also surprised in his heart.

"Wang Xin once reported that Yang Jian also noticed the abnormality when he entered the door before. I didn't expect this guy named Gu Li to have such a keen intuition. The Asia Interpol Headquarters is full of talents."

Mishima can be said to be jealous of this.

If there is such an excellent general in charge of the Spiritual Society, why does he have to swallow his anger like he is now?
However, he never expected that when he was here trying to dispel Gu Li's curiosity.

A strange man who has no sense of existence and has long been forgotten by Mishima and many members of the Spirit Elimination Society has quietly approached the source of the strange aura.

"it's here."

Li Leping met a lot of patrolling guards along the way, some of these guards were patrolling on the road, and some were secretly patrolling in the dark.

But these guards didn't notice his existence at all, allowing him to wander freely in this forest garden, and finally came to a relatively remote courtyard.

It seems that very few people will come here, and the patrol route of the guards will even deliberately avoid this place, so no one can see here at the moment.

But that uneasy feeling came from this courtyard.
