"I'll talk... I'll talk..."

The thin man forced an awkward smile. He knew his own strength very well, and the two people in front of him were definitely not people he could afford to offend.

After a brief confession, he revealed the purpose of his trip.

The thin man's real name was Wang Shan, and he was an ordinary employee of the local Zhongzhou Club.

This trip was also at the behest of the club administrator, to bury the contents of the gold box in the reservoir.

However, Wang Shan himself didn't know what was in the box.

"You dared to come here without even knowing what's in the box? Don't you know this is a restricted area?"

Yan Li's face was cold and indifferent. He couldn't understand how much the administrators of Zhongzhou City had given these people, to the point that this guy was willing to risk his life.

To Yan Li's surprise, Wang Shan was genuinely unaware of the supernatural events occurring there.

Not only Wang Shan, but the two dead men also didn't know.

Chu Mo stared at the other person's withered right hand and suddenly asked, "You're not all Ghost Tamers yet, are you?"

This statement surprised Yan Li.

Not a ghost tamer?

He couldn't help but take another look at the withered skin on Wang Shan's right hand. It was clearly the hand of a ghost. Only someone who had become a ghost tamer would turn into this after being corrupted by a vengeful ghost.

Just as he was wondering what was going on, Wang Shan’s next words completely overturned his understanding of the supernatural.

He said, "We are indeed not ghost controllers, but just ordinary people who have taken the club's drugs. These drugs can give us the supernatural power of vengeful ghosts for a short time, which is what you just saw."

"Does such a thing even exist?"

Chu Mo narrowed his eyes. This method of giving ordinary people the power of a vengeful ghost for a short time was quite different from all the methods he knew.

Leaving aside traditional ghost tamers, even the wishing ghosts and the royal curse only grant ordinary people the ability to command vengeful spirits.

The two are fundamentally different.

Chu Mo wanted to ask more questions about this, but Cheng Hao ran over at that moment.

"Have you found out?" Chu Mo asked.

"It's been investigated."

Cheng Hao was furious: "It's all the work of the Zhongzhou Club! Those guys are completely out of control now!"

"It's this club again." Chu Mo frowned.

"Again?" Cheng Hao glanced at Wang Shan, who was being restrained, and seemed to understand something.

"I've reviewed all the files you gave me. There's only one club in Zhongzhou City. Didn't you say you wanted to talk to them? With their attitude, how do you plan to talk?"

Chu Mo kicked Wang Shan up in front of Cheng Hao.

"The club sent people with a box. You've dealt with these people before, so you should know what's inside, right?"

He tossed the box of gold to the other man.

Cheng Hao took it and understood everything after just one glance.

"Are these guys really planning to destroy Zhongzhou City?"

He opened the box and showed its contents to Chu Mo and the other person.

Inside, there lay a dead man's finger, bent and stiff. Although it was lifeless, the remaining blood seemed to have been left not long ago.

Cheng Hao said, "This is a finger with the ability to attract ghosts. I've encountered this in several paranormal cases I've handled before."

"I only just realized that this thing was made by those guys from the Zhongzhou Club. The ghosts they attracted by sticking their fingers here will definitely escalate the paranormal events here. If the reservoir gets out of control and the paranormal events start to spread, then it will be troublesome."

"To be honest, these guys have mastered a drug that can turn ordinary people into demon tamers in a short time, so they don't really take headquarters seriously anymore."

"This has even attracted the attention of many local investors, who have come here hoping to acquire the drug under the guise of investment."

"The murders that have occurred frequently in Zhongzhou City in recent months are basically caused by these people."

"Giving ordinary people extraordinary power in a short period of time will inevitably inflate the egos of some people, and now it has seriously affected the ecological environment of the city."

Cheng Hao's trip to the club was largely due to this matter.

Chu Mo's expression turned strange after hearing this.

A non-governmental organization that specifically opposes the headquarters, even having its local leaders proactively approach them to discuss cooperation?

Who exactly is the administrator of Zhongzhou City?

"If a club can treat you like this, you should really reflect on your own problems."

Chu Mo was unaware of the situation in Zhongzhou City, but if it were him, it would be a case of his overly compassionate heart not wiping out the entire club.

Cheng Hao sighed, looking quite helpless.

"There's nothing I can do. When I took over Zhongzhou City, this club had already developed. Now, there are no fewer than ten Ghost Tamers in this group."

Given his limited resources, Cheng Hao simply couldn't handle the situation alone.

Chu Mo simply waved his hand, not wanting to focus too much energy on discussing Cheng Hao's mistakes.

All I want to figure out right now is where these supernatural drugs that allow ordinary people to access them come from.

If such a thing truly existed in China, the headquarters would surely know about it, and might even be using it extensively in handling paranormal events.

"Have your men take this guy back first. If he's only mastered supernatural abilities in a short time, even an ordinary person could end up with several lives on their hands."

Chu Mo said something to Cheng Hao, then turned to look at the lake surface that was blocked by reeds.

One thing is certain now: the ghost is in the lake.

This situation is quite tricky, because once you go down into the lake, it means you will inevitably trigger the ghost's killing pattern, and if you don't go down, you can't solve the source.

Yan Li glanced at the sky; it was already close to evening.

"Brother Chu, are we going to stay here tonight?" Yan Li asked.

Although he was much older than Chu Mo, in the supernatural community, seniority was the only factor, not age.

The other party is a senior in this field, so naturally I can't address them as inferior.

Chu Mo was clearly surprised by the stern address, but he didn't say much. Instead, he said, "Let's try to see if we can solve the problem at its source first."

As he spoke, he went to the lake where the two men had drowned and began to examine them.

The lake was calm and still, and there was no indication that someone had just died there.

"Brother Chu, should I lure that ghost out?" Yan Li suggested.

"How do you plan to lure him in?"

"With the killing pattern triggered and protected by the demon blood, I am confident that I can withstand one of the demon's attacks."

However, Chu Mo shook his head. "There's no need. Although the ghost blood on your body was dormant for a while on the bus, it's not at the point where it can be used at will. I didn't call you here to be cannon fodder. If necessary, I will let you take action."

Chu Mo stood by the lake, seemingly lost in thought.

Cheng Hao also came over at this time. Seeing that Chu Mo seemed powerless to help, he felt much better.

"Mr. Chu, this matter has actually been left unresolved for a long time, and it is indeed quite troublesome. If it really can't be dealt with, there's no need to force it. At least the restricted-level vengeful ghost won't be at risk of escaping."

He tried to comfort the other person, while also lowering his expectations of Chu Mo considerably.

However, Chu Mo ignored them, turning his gaze away from the lake and telling the two to step back behind him.

Yan Li tactfully complied, knowing that Chu Mo was about to use supernatural powers.

But Cheng Hao clearly didn't think Chu Mo could solve such a tricky case so soon after arriving.

He stood beside Yan Li and watched.

Just as I was thinking.

Suddenly.

A red light spread out from around the group, and a woman dressed in a wedding dress and wearing a veil appeared beside Chu Mo at some point.

The woman stood numbly in place, but her hand was tightly connected to Chu Mo's hand.

A chilling aura emanated from the woman in the wedding dress.

Cheng Hao only glanced at it before feeling a chill run down his spine.

Are you kidding me? Why is this guy leading a ghost?
