Odd Containment Specialist.

Chapter 435 Useless Person
"Yeah... this is the place."

Su Yue stopped in front of the entrance to a tunnel leading underground.

The steps leading to the underground were greasy, and a cold wind with a fishy smell was blowing upwards from below. The entrance in front of him overlapped with the game illustration in Jiang Wengao's memory. Except that the tunnel steps in front of him were more complete, there was no difference between the two.

The entrance to this underground tunnel is the entrance where the artifact Tongziqi is placed in the game!

Jiang Wengao took a deep breath, calmed himself, and slowly clenched his fists.

The investigation location marked by Shangguan Yan unexpectedly coincides with the location where the Tongziqie is placed. There are such coincidences in the world. Such coincidences make people feel a sense of fate that they are being pulled in by some unknown force.

"Let's go in." Su Yue put away the map and walked down on her own initiative.

Jiang Wengao took the lead and walked downwards. It was already evening, and after entering the tunnel, even the little moonlight that remained on the street was left behind. He opened his palms and lit a flame to illuminate the space. A deep, straight passage with no forks was right in front of him.

The huge underground space was very quiet. The two passed through several relatively spacious areas on the only road.

In the center of these square spaces, there are exposed ditches, which seem to have been underground drainage facilities in the past.

"Strange, there's no one here." Su Yue said vigilantly.

Jiang Wengao was stunned for a moment: "What's wrong if there's no one?"

"There are very few places to live in this gathering area. There are so many homeless people, and there are so many people who build houses with garbage on Piglet Street. Why is there no good place like this?" Su Yue said.

Jiang Wengao felt goosebumps all over his body, and then he realized what the problem was!
He didn't notice this problem at all because the ruins in the game looked like this. However, considering the real situation, a place like this that can shelter from wind and rain, with an obvious entrance and even a relatively clean environment, should definitely not be left unoccupied.

Jiang Wengao stopped, and Su Yue behind him also stopped.

The air suddenly became quiet. After the two people's footsteps disappeared, there was no sound at all. This place was unspeakably quiet. Although there was no danger, it was creepy.

Jiang Wengao tensed his muscles. His body could be transformed into elements and was immune to physical attacks, so he was never afraid of normal battles. However, the unknown was often the most terrifying.

"However, since Ke Hen has come in, it doesn't mean it's dangerous, right? Her special ability can replay scenes. If something dangerous has happened in this place, she would have known about it in advance with her special ability, and she wouldn't have come here." Su Yue saw that Jiang Wengao was a little nervous, so she comforted him.

Hearing this, Jiang Wengao's expression did not ease, but became even more serious.

"If I remember correctly, this is her last road marking in chronological order."

Su Yue unfolded the map and looked at it again by the light of the fire.

That's right.

This really is the last place!
The atmosphere suddenly became more terrifying.

"Let's call Brother Xia Shou." Su Yue took out her cell phone for the sake of caution.

Jiang Wengao did not stop him, although in the plot the exploration of this relic was very safe and there was almost no challenge. As long as he went all the way to the end and killed a very weak monster, he could successfully obtain the Dojikiri.

But after all, the historical time is different, and he can't be sure what the current situation of this place is.

He always thought that he was a very brave man, and he was not at all inferior in the movie hotel, but now he is indeed a little hesitant.

If there was no way to retreat and escape like in the hotel, he would definitely move forward without thinking.

Or maybe, if this place was like a hotel, with a few clear rules, he wouldn't be as uneasy as he is now.

It is because of the danger and the option of retreat that people hesitate to move forward.

There was still wind blowing from deep in the tunnel, which meant there must be a ventilation exit on the other side.

But the wind was mixed with the smell of blood and a nauseating, faint stench of decay. "You go out first, I'll investigate," Jiang Wengao said.

He can't just retreat like this. Since he is a member of the Control Bureau, he should be able to take charge of things on his own.

When those abnormal events occurred, which one was not investigated slowly by the lowest-level investigators? Didn't those dead D-level investigators feel scared or in danger during the investigation?

The initial intelligence of all dangerous abnormal events is discovered by D-level investigators. The worst case scenario is that they never return, but even if they never return, this event itself is the most direct intelligence feedback.

Investigation, research, control, management... this is the meaning of the existence of the Control Bureau.

If everyone is too scared to continue working without finding any obvious threat and is simply too frightened by the atmosphere, then there is no need for the Control Bureau to continue working.

Su Yue hesitated for a moment and wanted to stay and investigate with Jiang Wengao.

But the smell in the air made her uneasy.

It was impossible to say that she was not afraid. She had also smelled this smell in the Blood Mother Cult, which was very, very similar. And now, even though she had become an ordinary person with extraordinary skills, if she was put back into the Blood Mother Cult, she would still not be able to escape.

She felt that she was useless and of no use at all.

Perhaps the Minister asked her to come here with everyone, not because he expected her to be of any help, but because he thought it would make her more famous so that the Control Bureau would find her useful.

Su Yue held the phone tightly, feeling more depressed than ever before.

She couldn't handle things on her own, so how could she help Xia Shou? She just seemed to be a little more useful, but in fact, she could only rely on him when she encountered problems.

From this perspective, he is just less of a drag than before, so he might as well stay in the Control Bureau, or accept the invitation from those organizations and be an ordinary logistics staff. This way, it will not increase Xia Shou's burden.

Just like now, everyone only has one hour of memory time. If Xia Shou is asked to deal with everything personally, it means that Xia Shou has to record other important memories in writing every time, otherwise he will not be able to continue with the next thing.

Isn't it like they can't help at all?
Thinking of this, Su Yue strengthened her determination.

Make a risk plan first, then do your best!

"I'll go out and make a phone call first, and I'll be back soon!" Su Yue said firmly, her voice very soft, as if she was afraid that the sound of her voice would alarm something in the darkness.

Jiang Wengao nodded and said softly, "Then I will continue to move forward. When you come in later, if you see this on the ground, don't go any further."

After saying this, Jiang Wengao waved his hand gently, leaving a bright, glowing ash-like mark on the ground.

Su Yue nodded, turned around and ran out along the only way she came.

Su Weiyu, who had been following beside her, couldn't help but applaud her sister when she saw this scene.

She had wanted Su Yue to run away for a long time. The atmosphere of this ghost place made her scalp tingle.

If Su Yue doesn't plan to go out after a while, she will carry her out.

Su Yue turned on the light of her mobile phone and walked out, checking the signal as she walked.

There was no signal, but the foul smell in the air became stronger and stronger.

Strange... so strange...

When passing by the spacious area again, Su Yue heard the sound of flowing water.

The ditch, which had been silent before, was now filled with the sound of intermittent flowing water.
