I have a ghost diary

"Why do some of the options seem particularly twisted?" he couldn't help but ask.

“It’s about meeting the needs of different groups of people,” Zhou Wenshan looked at Chu Jiang with the same gaze one would give an innocent young virgin. “You seem rather unwilling to reveal your sexual fetishes.”

"Can I select all?" Chu Jiang asked again, his face expressionless.

"can."

"Are there any nuns? I'd choose a nun."

In the end, Chu Jiang gave a fairly normal answer. He wasn't actually a uniform fetishist; he just subconsciously thought of that beautiful blonde woman with big breasts.

"It's not in the picture, but you can choose this one," Zhou Wenshan said, noting down the information.

Have you considered starting a family?

"No."

What is the reason?

"I can't give my wife a sense of security."

Have you ever had thoughts of killing someone?

"Have."

Have you ever killed anyone?

"No."

Do you believe that ghost masters are superior to ordinary people?

"Yes."

"What's the reason?"

"The outbreak of paranormal events will only intensify, and in the end, those with power will inevitably stand at the top of the world."

Do you believe that ordinary people are only fit to be servants of the exorcist? To serve the exorcist?

"no."

"What's the reason?"

"Power can elevate a demon master's social standing above that of ordinary people; but it cannot elevate a demon master's moral character above that of ordinary people."

Upon hearing this answer, Zhou Wenshan's expression remained calm, but Chu Jiang could detect a hint of appreciation in her eyes.

Observation is also mutual.

"If you were in charge of a city, would you be willing to sacrifice yourself to save ordinary civilians?"

"no."

"reason?"

"If I want to save more people, then I cannot die prematurely. My future self will be countless times stronger than my current self. By then, I will be able to save countless times more people than I am now."

“Very confident,” Zhou Wenshan commented. “Then came the last few questions, which were more of a practical application question.”

"Imagine you and six other people accidentally stumble into a sealed, old, dilapidated house."

"A powerful ghost is trapped in this old house. It has been wandering here for many years but has never been able to leave."

"Your arrival and that of your companion have given this ghost a perfect opportunity."

"Unbeknownst to you, one of the people was replaced by a ghost. The ghost's purpose was to escape from this old house by using the body of a living person."

"You're the first to notice something's wrong, but you don't know who's been replaced by the ghost. What do you do in this situation?"

"Note that you cannot communicate with the outside world inside the old house."

This question reminded Chu Jiang of the imitation ghost that he had recently sealed away, so he answered directly: "Find out the ghost's behavior patterns and killing patterns, and analyze from every detail to find out who was replaced by the ghost."

"Once we find out the results, we'll try our best to get the others out of here and leave the ghost in the old house."

"What about the person whose body was possessed by a ghost?" Zhou Wenshan asked.

“Since you have the prefix ‘powerful,’ this ghost is most likely beyond our ability to deal with, and the person who was replaced is most likely already dead; so let’s ignore it and retreat.” Chu Jiang’s answer was very calm.

"What if the person whose body is being possessed is one of your best friends?"

"Retreat as before."

Zhou Wenshan nodded. "If only one person could leave this old house alive, who would you let leave?"

"I."

"Suppose you rack your brains but can't find out who was replaced, what would you do?"

After finishing her sentence, Zhou Wenshan added, "This question is based on the original question stem; you don't need to pay attention to the additional questions that follow."

In other words, there is no restriction that only one person can live.

This question made Chu Jiang ponder for a moment: "How dangerous would it be if a ghost escaped?"

"It is extremely large; it can take over anyone's body, and even the closest person would hardly be able to detect anything amiss."

"Moreover, it has the property of [proliferation]. After occupying the body of a living person for 24 hours, it can occupy the bodies of two people at the same time; after another 24 hours, it can occupy four."

"If we continue to extrapolate in this way, after ten days, it can simultaneously occupy the bodies of 512 people; after twenty days, it can simultaneously occupy the bodies of 524,288 people; and after thirty days, it can simultaneously occupy the bodies of 536,870,912 people."

"Theoretically, if there are no obstacles, this ghost can destroy the whole world in just thirty-four days. By then, the number will be more than 85 billion."

Chu Jiang felt a chill run down his spine. "A geometric sequence?"

“Yes, it’s a geometric sequence with 1 as the first term and 2 as the common ratio.” Zhou Wenshan calmly poured herself another cup of coffee. “This is an almost unsolvable S-class vengeful ghost.”

Upon receiving this answer, Chu Jiang replied almost without hesitation: "If I cannot tell the difference, I will lock everyone in the old house, leave alone, and lock the exits."

"Because the only thing I can be sure of is that I haven't been replaced."

"Suppose that a vengeful ghost has a special ability: the person whose body is being possessed is unaware that they have actually been taken over by the ghost. What would you do?"

This means that Chu Jiang himself may already be a ghost, but he himself is unaware of it.

"Similarly, in such extreme situations, I would definitely first judge myself whether I am a ghost or not. Only if I am certain will I choose to escape."

This answer surprised Zhou Wenshan. "You're so confident? You know, in the question, this is an S-level vengeful ghost."

Chu Jiang remained calm. "I have my own reasons for being confident."

As for how to determine this, it's simple: Chu Jiangsheng was a person in Ghost Diary, and he died as a ghost in Ghost Diary. Given the blood-sucking nature of this diary, it most likely won't even leave its corpse for other ghosts.

“Okay, one last question,” Zhou Wenshan looked at Chu Jiang seriously.

"Actually, in the previous question, wouldn't it have been better if you had answered 'self-sacrifice'? Like you said before, anyone who isn't stupid would know to choose a positive and optimistic answer."

Chapter Sixty-Six: What you fear most is what happens.

Chu Jiang shook his head. "There's no need. I think this answer is positive enough. Anyway, if I have the chance to escape, I will definitely choose to escape."

In fact, Zhou Wenshan should have already developed a personality profile of Chu Jiang through previous psychological tests.

At this point, if Chu Jiang chooses to lie, the other party will know it's a lie, so it's better to be honest.

“Okay.” From that moment on, Zhou Wenshan stopped asking questions and focused on inputting data and making judgments into her laptop.

During this lull, Chu Jiang also pondered this S-class vengeful ghost that could multiply indefinitely.

Yes, he doubted that the vengeful ghost Zhou Wenshan mentioned actually existed.

Of course, this ghost is not free at this moment. It is either sealed away or truly trapped somewhere, unable to escape.

Otherwise, if such a terrifying and invincible ghost were to roam the outside world, all of humanity would have perished long ago.

This ghost is similar to the mimicry ghost, but the difference is that one is a substitute, while the other is truly just a simple imitation.

In addition, in terms of replacing living people, this ghost is somewhat similar to the ghost peeking out, which makes Chu Jiang wonder if these ghosts are from the same series.

The S-class vengeful ghost is the absolute superior of this series, and also the ultimate enhanced version.

Regardless of Chu Jiang's speculations, Zhou Wenshan quickly finished her work.

"Alright, although I can't reveal my detailed score for you, I can say for sure that you've passed."

"I just sent the detailed information to headquarters. If there are no problems after headquarters reviews it, they should be able to send you over in the next few days."

Chu Jiang was somewhat surprised, "That's... over?"

"Otherwise what?" Zhou Wenshan countered with a smile, "Would we have to resort to the Ghost Master's abilities?"

"I'm not afraid to tell you the truth: not all the psychologists in our research institute are 'ghost psychologists'."

"For psychologists without special abilities, they are usually accompanied by a professional psychic, who mainly provides protection."

"Someone like me doesn't need that. I have the ability to protect myself from being mentally manipulated by other ghost masters, and that's enough."

"As for what you imagine, using supernatural powers to analyze other people's minds, this will first and foremost be met with resistance from those who join."

"Secondly, this ability is also very rare and cannot be popularized."

"So the regulations from above are very simple: just ensure that psychologists can make judgments independently and without interference."

Chu Jiang understood. So that's how it is. He had made preparations to resist the invasion, but it turned out that it was unnecessary at all.

It seems the research institute isn't so extreme; it does allow members to retain a certain degree of privacy.

......

The psychological assessment took quite a while, and by the time Zhou Wenshan and Chu Jiang left the office, it was already 12:30.

Just then, Li Bu Huo called to say that he had sent someone to pick them up.

As soon as the two went downstairs, they were picked up by a driver and taken to a high-end restaurant for a good meal.

During this time, Li Bu Huo ate and drank heartily while praising Chu Jiang.

Zhou Wenshan remained very quiet throughout, only eating vegetables and drinking some juice.

As for Chu Jiang, he didn't have any particular interest in the dishes; they were just so-so.

Chu Jiang's only thought after finishing the meal was: Damn capitalism, even the waiters are so good-looking when you just eat a casual meal.

Yes, at Tongyi, young and beautiful girls serve the food, and they even wear cheongsams, which is really different from ordinary street food stalls.
