Trickster Hunter.

Chapter 358 Desire and Cases

Is this also a different kind of “wishes come true”?

Sun Hang walked out of the apartment building, squatted at the gate of the community for a while, then took out his mobile phone and called Pei Zongjun.

"Hey, Old Man Pei, regarding emotions, evil thoughts and the like that can induce ordinary people to become weird, are there any actual cases? Send me some."

……

……

Five minutes later, an email marked "Top Level Confidential" was sent to Sun Hang's mobile phone.

As soon as Sun Hang opened the email, a thirty-minute countdown popped up in the upper right corner of the screen. The eye-catching bright red font made it hard not to notice it.

This is a "burn after reading" email. It cannot be saved or forwarded. After the countdown ends, all data will be deleted.

"He's really bored..." Sun Hang commented casually.

The confidentiality of this thing is basically better than nothing. People who have the authority to read this level of confidentiality will definitely delete it after reading it. There is no need for it to do it itself... As for preventing leaks, simply prohibiting saving, forwarding and editing is useless...

Taking pictures of the screen with a mobile phone, taking notes on paper and pen... there are too many ways to save the contents. Not to mention, the surveillance camera at the entrance of the community alone can clearly capture the contents on Sun Hang’s mobile phone screen.

The only purpose of this thing is probably to cause trouble to people... If you meet someone who reads slowly or is used to thinking while reading, it would be a bit funny if the data was deleted by the "self-immolation program" before they finished reading...

Sun Hang walked to a blind spot of the surveillance camera and slid down the content of the email.

The first case Pei Zongjun sent over occurred in Shencheng Prison, and the person involved was a 44-year-old prisoner.

This man was convicted of child trafficking, and during the crime process, he caused the death of two boys due to improper operation... Since he was not the principal offender, he was not sentenced to death, but only life imprisonment.

He was originally going to be sent to a cold and bitter land on the northwest border to serve his sentence, but fortunately he had a wealthy younger brother who spent a lot of money to make arrangements, and he was finally sent to the Shencheng Prison, where the material conditions were relatively better.

However, his younger brother probably didn't expect that after spending so much money, his brother not only didn't live a comfortable life in prison, but was beaten and bullied by other prisoners every other day, and even the prison administrators turned a blind eye to it...

The reason is very simple. The conditions in Shencheng Prison are better, and the information is not as closed as in those bitter and cold places. The prisoners not only have newspapers and TV to watch, but they can even go online at a fixed time every week... In addition, many prisoners have backgrounds and are very well-informed, so on the first day this guy came in, most people in the prison knew what he had done.

There were many parents among the prisoners. People like him who were sentenced for child trafficking were almost at the bottom of the prison's contempt chain... It was common for them to stuff filth into meals and put cockroaches in their beds. Sometimes, they would be beaten when the guards weren't paying attention. Those prisoners who beat people were very experienced. They would cover the person with a blanket before beating him, so that the flesh wounds wouldn't be too obvious, and they didn't have to worry about beating him...

This guy also tried to report to the prison administrators, but each report fell on deaf ears, and in return he only received more severe retaliation.

No one sympathized with him, and even the prison administrators looked at him with a hint of hatred in their eyes.

In the fourth month of his imprisonment, several strong prisoners who claimed to have "an overflowing sense of justice" blocked him in the toilet of the reading room and beat him up severely. This time they hit him a little too hard, and when the prison management staff arrived, the situation was almost out of control... The reason was very simple. He had endured it for several months and he really couldn't bear it anymore. When the other party slapped him, he slapped back. Then a group of people surrounded him and beat him up, almost killing him.

Everyone had been sent to the hospital, so the prison authorities naturally could not ignore the situation as they had done before - the several prisoners who had participated in the beating were all given serious warnings and put in solitary confinement, and the leader had his sentence extended by one and a half years.

He stayed in the hospital for two months, and after recovering from his injuries, he was sent back to Shencheng Prison... However, less than a week after returning to prison, he got into trouble again.

While cleaning, the prison cleaning staff accidentally discovered the dagger he had hidden in the crack of the bed board - it was called a dagger, but in fact it was just two palm-sized pieces of rusty iron with sharp edges. During the scramble for it, he used the two pieces of rusty iron to cut the cleaning staff, and then was pinned to the ground by the prison guard who rushed in after hearing the noise.

He confessed to hiding dangerous items, but when asked about his motive, he was unwilling to speak - of course, even if he didn't say it, others could guess it, to put it bluntly, it was two words: revenge.

He was thrown into solitary confinement, and his cell was moved to a different building from the one where the people who had beaten him up before...but that very night, the real accident happened.

For the survivors of this incident, it was definitely a day they would never want to recall.

A humanoid monster covered in blood and with two arms turned completely into metal blades was killing crazily in the prison. The non-lethal weapons equipped by the prison guards could not hinder its actions at all. By the time the prison guards obtained permission to use lethal weapons, nine prison staff members and fourteen prisoners had already been killed by this monster.

The situation did not improve after obtaining permission to open fire. The prison guards' standard pistols, shotguns, and small-caliber semi-automatic rifles were simply unable to kill the creature. Even when a prison guard risked his life to break the creature's arm with a shotgun at close range, it was of no use - the creature simply tore off the prison guard's arm, attached it to its own body, and then turned around and used the stolen shotgun to knock down a large number of prison guards in the corridor.

Shencheng Prison is different from those border prisons. It is not equipped with heavy weapons such as heavy machine guns and rocket launchers. The 6mm caliber semi-automatic rifle is already the most powerful weapon in the hands of the prison guards.

Fortunately, the Shencheng Weird Research Institute is less than 15 kilometers away from the prison. Less than 20 minutes after the prisoner was transformed, the Weird Hunter arrived at the scene. Sun Hang clicked on the video attached to the file. The transformed guy looked like Baltan from Ultraman, except that the two pairs of lobster claws on his hands were replaced with two large blades. However, the sharpness of the blades was quite good. It could cut through iron like mud. One cut opened the iron door of the confinement room, and the second cut cut the prison guard who had not yet reacted into two halves.

The next scene was a bit like those R18-rated blood-thirsty movies. Almost the entire corridor was filled with human limbs and arms. Several prison guards blocked the stairs at the end of the corridor and kept shooting at the strange creatures. The bullets had a slight blocking effect on the strange creatures, but as for the actual killing effect...

Anyway, Sun Hang saw at least seven or eight bullets hit the monster's head, but the monster's movements were not affected.

The video lasts a total of eighteen minutes. The monster fought its way from the third floor where the confinement room was located to the first floor. Then it was knocked away by an armored SUV that drove directly in from the gate. Two monster hunters who jumped off the armored SUV subdued the monster in no time, stuffed it into a restraint device and took it away.

Further down, there were some meme analyses and autopsy reports that Sun Hang couldn't understand... Sun Hang was too lazy to spend time understanding those professional terms, so he simply scrolled to the conclusion section at the bottom.

"After an on-site investigation, it was confirmed that there was no sign of memetic contamination in Shencheng Prison. The strange creature was self-transformed and there is no traceable source of infection."

"He was obsessed with revenge, and his mind was completely occupied by this thought until his hidden weapons were discovered and confiscated... In the confinement room, his negative emotions swelled to the extreme, and he wanted to take back the knife to kill the prisoners who beat him... As a result, his hands were directly 'transformed' into the shape of knives..." Sun Hang muttered softly, "It is indeed a manifestation of 'wishing for what you want'... But the price of this wish coming true is indeed a bit high. It seems that he has completely lost his self-awareness."

For some reason, Sun Hang suddenly thought of a sentence with strong religious connotations.

"In order to gain power, it sold its soul to the devil."

But then again, if the demons in the religious texts of the old times really existed, they were probably some kind of "weird creatures"...

Sun Hang glanced at the countdown in the upper right corner. There were only eighteen minutes left, and he had only read the first of the three cases contained in the email.

The finger slid quickly across the screen, and soon, the content of the second case appeared on the screen.

The second case was not as bloody as the first one, but the picture attached to the file was even more disgusting - it was hard to say that it was a person, but it seemed to have some human characteristics. Sun Hang didn't know how to describe it in words. In short, the thing in the picture was a kind of organism that would cause people to feel severe physiological discomfort after looking at it.

The person involved in the second case is an internet anchor, or to be more precise, a "foodie broadcaster".

As the name suggests, food broadcasting is the process of enjoying delicious food live, becoming the "Internet mouth substitute" for those netizens who want to eat but dare not, or cannot eat it... In today's era, the top food broadcasters earn no less money than second- and third-rate stars, and their number of fans and influence are also amazing.

The person involved is the top food streamer on a certain short video platform.

She is very young, only twenty-four years old, and she is a beauty with great looks and figure... In the anchor industry, beautiful women always have innate advantages over others. Whether they are playing games, dancing, eating food or even just sitting and chatting, there will be many people clicking in to watch, not to mention that this anchor also has a very attractive gimmick - that is, her "special physique" that allows her to not gain weight no matter how much she eats.

In her live broadcasts, she eats at least several times the amount of food a normal person eats in a day - this amount of food can feed several strong men if given to the workers who do heavy work on the construction site all day, but this anchor's stomach is like a bottomless pit. Every time she goes live, she can stuff high-calorie foods such as hamburgers, fried chicken, noodles, cakes, etc. into her mouth and swallow them in front of tens of thousands of viewers.

She "really eats", and not the kind of "fake eating" where she takes a bite and then edits a video, and then the plate is inexplicably empty after a few edits... And with such a horrible appetite, the anchor can still maintain a slim figure with a height of 1.7 meters and a weight of less than 100 kilograms... Not to mention anything else, she has made a lot of money just by selling weight-loss products.

The reason why she doesn't gain weight is very simple. After each live broadcast, she will induce vomiting and spit out all the food she just ate...

Someone once revealed online that she would induce vomiting after the live broadcast, but she was soon attacked by her fans... Until one day during the live broadcast, the audience was horrified to find that the food the host had eaten was actually "leaking" directly from her chest, mixed with a lot of blood and flesh and mucus like stomach acid, dripping onto the table.

Some people were so scared that they were incoherent, some asked the anchor what special effects software he used, and some were checking the calendar to see if today was April Fools' Day or Halloween...

Of course, some people chose to call the police directly.

The number of viewers in the live broadcast room soared from more than 30,000 to nearly 1 million, but the anchor was still swallowing the food as if nothing had happened...

The crack in her chest began to grow larger and larger, looking like a huge gap. Through this gap, one could even vaguely see the wriggling inner wall of the digestive tract inside...

The live broadcast room was forcibly closed by the platform, and the beautiful anchor sitting in front of the table gradually turned into a monster.

This anchor did not sign a contract with an agency, but chose to operate the account on his own, and the live broadcast location was also at home... Therefore, no one knows whether the images seen in the live broadcast room are real or fake...

When the sheriff and investigators arrived at the anchor's residence, she had already turned into a pile of rotten meat composed of various deformed digestive organs - she was still eating continuously, and she vomited as much as she ate... The ground was full of incompletely digested food residues and digestive fluids with a sour smell...

The investigators tried to stop "her" from eating, but to no avail - when they took the food away from "her" reach, "she" actually started eating her own "body tissues". While eating, her vocal organs, which were hidden somewhere, made unclear sounds: "My family, this kebab is absolutely delicious..."
