I have a ghost diary

Chu Jiang thought for a moment, "Tell me the pattern, and I will tell you in detail what I know."

“You speak first, then I will speak.” Fang Tianci was quite firm on this point.

Chu Jiang didn't care. He had already said what he needed to say when he sold the information, so this was just a repetition, and he had already received the reward.

After answering Fang Tianci's questions, Chu Jiang led them into the green belt. "I threw the ghost head into this area, but when I got out of the car and came back in to look for it, I couldn't find it anymore."

Fang Tianci squatted down with a solemn expression, his palms pressed on the ground as if sensing something.

After a while, he frowned and stood up. "Nothing was found. It seems that the ghost can only be noticed and touched by outsiders when the killing pattern is triggered."

"What's the pattern?" Chu Jiang asked him.

Fang Tianci stared at Chu Jiang for a while before slowly saying, "If you don't want to die, you'd better find that ghost and get rid of it as soon as possible. Because its next target is likely to be you."

Chapter Thirty-Three: The Murder Patterns of Ghost Peekers

"As for the pattern, it's very simple." Fang Tianci took the sunglasses from his assistant and put them on.

"First, the ghost only targets people who drive or ride in vehicles; currently, it doesn't include bicycles."

"Secondly, the purpose of the ghost head is not actually to kill the driver or passengers; at least its primary purpose is to force a car moving at high speed to stop."

"Therefore, in all the current cases, there are no instances where the ghost head rushes into the car and attacks living people immediately; there are only instances where it forms a fixed obstacle, causing the car to overturn or be severely damaged."

"Third, the ghost head started killing people after the drivers and passengers had survived the traffic accident."

"However, the traffic accidents it causes are often very serious. After the accident, whether it is the driver or the passenger, they either die on the spot or are seriously injured. Very few people can survive healthy."

"In fact, this contradicts the purpose of the ghost head."

"Fourth, once a healthy survivor survives, the ghost will have a supernatural influence on all the survivors on the vehicle. The method and principle behind this are unknown."

"The result after implementation is just as you reported. You will unconsciously have the illusion that you have lost something."

"Driven by this illusion, or even obsessive-compulsive disorder, survivors will actively go back to find the ghost head."

"Once found, the ghost head will remove the head of the living person and place its own head into the healthy body of the living person."

"Moreover, during this process, the living people seem to either not resist or have lost the ability to resist."

"Based on the two existing examples, the consciousness of living people will continue to exist temporarily. Living people will still feel that they are living people, and their memories, personality, and way of thinking will not change."

"But in reality they are already dead, and I would venture to guess that, over time, the heads of these living people will continue to rot."

"When a person is completely rotten and no longer recognizable as human, then that person will truly die."

"As for ghosts, ghosts don't die. Remember the head of the living person that was thrown away at the beginning? That head will become a new ghost and continue to choose the next target, the next body."

"In short, this is a ghost that can constantly change its carrier. I originally thought it was only C-rank, and I still think it is C-rank now."

"However, the complexity of its patterns and its inherent danger make it comparable to some Class B vengeful ghosts."

The so-called S, A, B, and C danger levels refer to the danger levels relative to all of humanity.

Although ghost peeking out is very dangerous, it only causes one or two or three people to be killed or injured at a time; and if someone survives, it will even behave itself for a period of time and stop committing crimes.

Therefore, it was classified as Grade C.

But this doesn't mean that C-level ghosts are easy to deal with; it just means that their killing efficiency isn't that high.

Take Slender Man for example. He can lock down an entire school and kill thousands of people in half a day, and that's not even with all his might. That's why he was rated A.

If the harm caused by a Class A vengeful ghost were to fully erupt, it would often cause an entire large city to fall, and it would definitely not just be a school.

As for S-class vengeful spirits, they are terrifying beings that are practically unsolvable.

If not properly controlled, an S-class vengeful ghost could snowball and grow so powerful that it could easily destroy a medium-sized country.

As Chu Jiang listened to Fang Tianci's detailed analysis, his brows furrowed deeply.

After the other person had finished speaking, he asked, "You just gave two examples, so does that mean the guy who posted on the paranormal forum is dead?"

It's that netizen who posted the curse about the ghost peeking out; Chu Jiang even sent him a private message not long ago.

"Yes, I killed him. Oh no, he died at the hands of Gui Tou a long time ago. I just helped him get rid of his predicament." Fang Tianci said this without changing his expression.

Chu Jiang then pieced together the whole story.

The ghost peeking out incident has been going on for more than just a day or two. Although Fang Tianci doesn't seem to be a very good person, he is still fulfilling his responsibilities as the person in charge and has been investigating seriously.

He must have received information from forum users and thought this might be a breakthrough, so he met him in real life.

Just like Fang Tianci meeting Chu Jiang now.

However, this meeting made Fang Tianci realize that something was wrong. In short, he discovered that the forum users were dead, and that they were likely just puppets manipulated by Gui Tou.

So Fang Tianci decisively killed the netizen.

But killing the online friend didn't end the ghost peeking incident. On the contrary, the ghost peeking started wandering the city again, like a ghost.

At this point, Fang Tianci was still at a loss, feeling that Gui Tou's killing patterns were definitely not just about killing people on the bus.

Just then, Chu Jiang arrived in Luozhou City, and soon after, he was attacked by Ghost Peek.

Having obtained relevant information from the forum beforehand, Chu Jiang remained calm in the face of the situation and acted decisively to prevent a traffic accident from occurring.

This just went along with the ghost's wishes, and it placed some incomprehensible curse on the driver and Chu Jiang.

Not long after, both the driver and Chu Jiang had a strong feeling that "I lost something".

Perhaps because Chu Jiang possessed supernatural powers, it took him a little longer to form a thought.

Since the driver had a car, Chu Jiang had to flag one down, so he returned to the crime scene first and found the ghost head.

Then the driver's head was replaced, and he remained completely unaware.

It was precisely because the ghost head found a healthy body that Chu Jiang's thoughts automatically dissipated, and he returned to normal.

After Chu Jiang sold this crucial intelligence to the person in charge, Fang Tianci sorted out the cause and effect and decisively set his sights on the driver.

If his guess was correct, the driver should already be dead by now.

Coincidentally, the driver had called the police before the accident, so Fang Tianci asked the police to find a reason to keep the driver at the scene of the crime.

According to his plan, with the driver and the two heads present, he was determined not to let the ghost's true form escape this time.

However, judging from the current situation, the ghost still managed to escape, and it did so right under Fang Tianci's nose; because the ghost is invisible when no pattern is triggered.

So Fang Tianci could only angrily call Chu Jiang over, which led to the scene we see now.

Seeing that Chu Jiang was still thinking, Fang Tianci grinned and said, "See? I didn't lie to you, did I?"

"There are two possibilities now. One is that the ghost head will go looking for new victims."

"The other reason is that Ghost Head is looking for the second survivor of this incident, which is you. That's the most important reason why I asked you to come here."

Chapter Thirty-Four: Mental Instability

It has to be said that the person in charge is indeed quite capable. Even though Chu Jiang doesn't like Fang Tianci, he still has to admit that the other party is somewhat competent.

As soon as the driver died, he immediately thought of using Chujiang to locate Guitou's whereabouts.

"The reason you told me the complete pattern is that you hope I can help you?" Chu Jiang asked.

Fang Tianci shook his head. "No, it's to help yourself."

"Although you don't seem to have any thoughts about losing things right now, who can predict the future?"

"Maybe you'll fall asleep tonight and unconsciously run to find the ghost head in the middle of the night, and then the ghost head will replace your head."

"Can you tolerate this kind of thing?"

"Whether I can tolerate it or not is none of your concern." Chu Jiang said, then turned and left. "You should go and fulfill your responsibilities as the person in charge."

"Wait," Fang Tianci tried to stop Chu Jiang, but Chu Jiang did not stop.

Fang Tianci ignored it and simply said to Yang Xuan, "Give him a jar."

Yang Xuan was taken aback. When did his boss become so generous? But he quickly chased after him and handed Chu Jiang a ceramic jar.

Chu Jiang glanced at it; the gray pottery jar was only the size of a palm and looked like a modern craft item, not an antique or anything like that.

"Is this a sealed container?"

Yang Xuan nodded, "Yes, it works best when used in conjunction with a peace charm."

A container can be understood as a box, and a lucky charm can be understood as a lock.

While you could temporarily seal a suppressed ghost by stuffing it into something and attaching a talisman, this wouldn't last more than a few days and carries a huge risk.

With a special sealing container and a talisman, you can seal away a ghost for at least a few months, or even a year or two.

Since it was a free gift, Chu Jiang accepted it without hesitation, not to mention that he wanted to use this sealing tool for an experiment.

"If you can't hold on any longer, remember to call me." Fang Tianci smiled as he watched Chu Jiang leave, and at the same time sent his number to Chu Jiang's phone.

Chu Jiang did not respond, and his figure gradually disappeared into the distance.

Only then did Fang Tianci's smile fade. He said coldly, "After all, you survived an A-level incident and escaped the ghost realm of an A-level vengeful spirit. You must have some trump cards up your sleeve, right? I hope you won't disappoint me..."

This is one of the advantages of being an official. It hasn't been long since Chu Jiang got into trouble, but as soon as his information is entered into the research institute's system, officials in various regions can find it immediately.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that the part involving Chujiang has basically no confidential content.

Even within the research institute, a considerable amount of information requires a higher position and greater access.

If Chu Jiang can join Research Institute No. 21 and hold a higher position than Fang Tianci, then the person in charge at Fang Tianci's level will not have the right to view any of his information.

------------------------------

On the way back, Chu Jiang still hitchhiked, not afraid to walk back.

Or perhaps he'd love to see a ghost peeking out from behind a window.

Although Fang Tianci may have been using him to solve paranormal events, it must be said that Chu Jiang really hates the feeling of being constantly threatened by ghosts.

Having a "chronic" Bloodhand Ghost inside my body is troublesome enough, but now there's another one? And it's "acute" at that.

With a sigh, Chu Jiang closed his eyes to rest, constantly checking his own state and being wary of any inappropriate or abnormal thoughts that might arise.
