Chapter 37 Investigating Toki
"After all, the matter isn't that hard to understand. Think about it carefully: a real, bizarre incident occurred in a neighboring country, and the incident is still escalating."
"At first, the strange events only occurred in one house, but the death toll kept rising, and the dead people started to be people who entered the house, but later these kinds of things happened randomly."
"Even a major Eastern power cannot remain indifferent. They will inevitably send people to try to resolve the issue, at least to investigate the reasons and principles behind the spread of the matter."
Hearing this, Zheng Zha nodded, but he quickly asked, "Wait, Chu Xuan, how do you know all this?"
Chu Xuan said, "It's written in the newspaper."
He unfolded the newspapers they had brought from the hotel in front of Zheng Zha.
Zheng Zha asked疑惑地, "Is there anything different about this newspaper compared to before?"
Chu Xuan said, "After returning from that special world, the text in the newspapers became legible. Although you still can't understand it, the text has indeed become Japanese in the general sense."
Lingdian and Zhao Yingkong also came over. After looking at it for a while, they nodded and said, "Indeed, it has been changed to Japanese that we can understand."
"The earliest news reports in these newspapers were about a family of four committing suicide together in one room."
"Later, all sorts of people began to die in the city, and the ways of dying became increasingly bizarre, almost impossible for humans to do, and no longer limited to suicide."
"Many news reports are clearly homicides, but the killer can't be found."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Zha examined the newspaper carefully and said, "Wait a minute, look, the picture in the newspaper is a little different from the original one."
After taking a few glances, everyone realized it was true. But why did this change occur?
Zhan Lan recalled what Zhe Xingsun had said about the demonic winds outside stopping, and said in a somewhat sinister tone, "Perhaps we entered another world, a world completely different from the real world. In that world, even the laws of physics are different from those in the real world. For example, in that world, writing becomes something else entirely, a kind of writing that only beings living in that world can understand."
Zhan Lan's tone gave the impression that she was telling a ghost story.
Zheng Zha swallowed hard and replied, "Alright, Zhan Lan, stop creating panic. A newcomer died before, and we still don't understand how he died, how he entered that world, or how he returned to the real world."
As the group was discussing, they suddenly heard a howling sound coming from the distant sky.
Everyone went out the window to look, and saw an airplane flying overhead.
Moments later, a package with a parachute fell straight down from the sky, landing almost on the roof of the building.
Everyone rushed over to investigate, and soon the package was dropped upstairs.
They untied their parachutes, returned with the package, and opened it to find that it contained some readily available information about Kayako, while another part of the information was actually related to them.
For example, Chu Xuan is a colonel-level military officer, while Zheng Zha and others are qigong masters or ghost-catching experts selected from the public, and some are volunteers from the public.
This also explains why a group of seemingly chaotic people would appear in this city shrouded in vengeance.
Zhan Lan also found information about Zhe Xingsun in the data. The data showed that Zhe Xingsun was a mutated monkey king who could understand human speech and speak human language. He also had some unique abilities, which is why he was chosen. In China, he was given the code name Sun Wukong.
In short, based on the information available, they are all just ordinary people.
Zhan Lan asked with some curiosity, "Speaking of which, why was our information sent over as well?"
Chu Xuan said, "Perhaps she's afraid that we might forget our original identities and purposes in this city for some reason. After all, Kayako has the ability to manipulate minds and illusions, and no one knows if she will modify our memories."
"So, sending an extra set of information might play a crucial role at some point. Of course, I think this might also be God's arrangement, trying to prevent us from making mistakes when assigning us our identities and backgrounds, so He sent us another set of information at the same time."
"Perhaps in the future, even if we complete our mission in the Ju-on world and return to the Main God Space, we will still have some interaction with the Ju-on world one day."
As Zheng Zha was thinking this, Chu Xuan suddenly noticed a letter at the bottom of all the documents.
He opened the letter and looked at it for a while, then his expression suddenly changed slightly.
He carefully put the letter away and folded it, then said to everyone, "This letter is a mission given to us by the country, but once you read it, you will receive a new side quest from the main god. Completing the side quest will reward you with 5000 reward points and a B-level side story; however, if you fail the mission, you will be deducted 5000 reward points, and if you don't have enough reward points, you will be eliminated. Whether you participate in this mission or not is up to you."
Zheng Zha and the others opened their mouths in surprise: another B-level side quest with 5000 reward points, exactly the same as the previous quest that required them to kill Kayako!
As he was thinking, Chu Xuan added, "Moreover, after completing this side quest, all participants will be rewarded with a B-level side quest storyline and 5000 reward points, which means it's a group reward."
Zheng Zha asked, "Is there any difference?"
Zhan Lan chimed in, "Of course they're different! This mission is definitely more difficult than the one that kills Kayako. The reward for killing Kayako is a B-level side quest and 5000 reward points, which should be distributed among all of us based on our contribution, just like in the last horror movie when we killed the Alien Queen."
"But this time it's completely different. If we all participate in this mission and complete it, then everyone can get 5000 reward points and a B-level side quest."
Zhan Lan's words immediately made Zheng Zha realize what was going on.
Zhang Jie exclaimed, "My God! So many rewards! We'd be eating bowls of porridge and then throwing them away!"
However, Zheng Zha said, "That requires all of us to survive, and if the mission fails, 5000 reward points will be deducted. None of us can possibly have that many reward points."
Zheng Zha hesitated for a moment.
At this moment, Zhe Xingsun stepped forward, extended his hand towards Chu Xuan, and said, "That place is filled with eerie winds and gloomy energy, but it's not the Netherworld. Although I haven't transcended the Three Realms or been outside the Five Elements, and I don't have the great ability to enter the Dragon Palace or wreak havoc in the Netherworld, I still want to test the depths of that realm. Besides, my brother has already accepted the mission; if I don't, wouldn't it make me seem afraid of the ghosts and monsters of this tiny little country?"
Upon hearing Zhe Xingsun's words, Chu Xuan nodded and handed the letter to him.
Zhe Xingsun glanced at it and saw that it told them to investigate the situation of that strange world if conditions allowed, which might be related to the anomalies in this city.
The next second, the voice of the Supreme God rang in his ears: "Accept side quest: Investigate the truth behind the anomalies that have occurred in the mortal realm. Upon completion of the quest, all participants will be rewarded with 5000 reward points and one B-level side quest."
As Zhe Xingsun was reading, a hand reached out from the side, and Zheng Zha was the first to take the letter. Turning his head, he saw Zhan Lan, Zhang Jie, and the others, who had also taken their letters and were examining them.
Zheng Zha said, "Since Brother Monkey has already accepted the quest, isn't this basically a guaranteed win? It's a free side quest and reward points, why shouldn't we take it! Hahaha, it's rare for the main god to be so generous!"
