After becoming a probationary investigator, Fang Xian's life suddenly became very fulfilling.
Every day, he trained his body, practiced his firearms, and studied all kinds of courses.
Although he had turned back into a normal person, he was still a perfectionist among normal people. Naturally, this was not a problem for him.
Although he had purposely slowed down his learning speed, Lov was still amazed.
And what Fang Xian looked forward to the most was naturally the "Decrypting Files" class every night.
With the power of the Secret Keepers, how many secrets were they protecting?
What he saw was probably only the content that the lowest level of clearance could see, but even so, it was strange enough.
Through the dusty files and the confessions of the people involved, Fang Xian saw that under the surface of peace and development in this world, there were all kinds of strange things hidden.
A normal person might just read a book out of curiosity, walk into a corner, or see a picture, and fall into the abyss forever.
"No … even if you avoid everything, some 'things' will still come to you … There's no reason at all."
Thinking of this, Fang Xian opened a yellowed document.
"Code name — Schindler's Farm!
"Danger level — Low!
"Confidentiality level — Normal investigators can read it!
"Participants: Investigator Kent, Schindler's Farm owner …
"Description: After receiving a report from Schindler's Farm owner, he suspected that thieves were stealing goats from his farm. Two police officers went missing, and Schindler's Farm owner went crazy. He has a strong fear of things and words like rats …
"Case summary: The culprit is a 'hideous mole with a human face'. Investigator Kent has found the strange rat's nest and destroyed it.
"Note: After the incident, Investigator Kent showed a slight mental problem, so he was sent to a sanatorium for a year …"
…
He flipped to the end and found a black and white photo. It was a rat with a human face on its back. Its eyes seemed to reflect the light from the camera, becoming very bright.
"I have a slight sense of synaesthesia. If I take it seriously, I can probably get some information. Write a poem?
"This is like a spell, the effect is probably to summon a human-faced rat …"
Fang Xian glanced at Lov, who was waiting solemnly, and wisely chose to give up.
"How … do you feel?"
Lov asked nervously.
"I don't feel anything. Hmm, this mouse is quite ugly."
Fang Xian put down the black and white photo. Perhaps because of the poor exposure, he felt that the head of the mouse was a little strange. The white light was distorted and turned into a mask …
"No, I can't watch anymore …"
He turned around and was shocked to see that Lov was about to stand up. "What are you doing? Put the syringe down, I'm fine, really! "
"Really … Are you sure?" Lov looked doubtful as if he was looking for a suitable place to insert the needle.
"I'm sure, really."
Fang Xian quickly closed the file. "This case, how was it resolved in the end? It seems very simple."
"Since the victim was admitted to the sanatorium, his later confession was very vague, and he lost part of his memory … But most of these monsters can be dealt with with guns, and it follows a certain scientific structure … This is our good fortune."
Lov replied.
"Using firearms?" Fang Xian thought for a moment. "I feel that they might not be complete or mature … Maybe they're just a projection or a summoning power that induced the normal mouse to mutate …"
"The legendary investigator, Clark Carter, has the same opinion as you." Lov nodded.
"Legendary investigator?" Fang Xian's expression changed.
"He's a living legend. He solved many strange cases and saw the real abyss and horror, but he still maintained his sanity … Rumor has it that he's also friends with some supernatural creatures and has unimaginable ritualistic magic power … Of course, that requires a stronger brain and heart to not be corrupted by the evil power in the magic," Lov said reverently.
"This legendary investigator is still active in the frontline. He's my idol!"
"Admirable!"
Fang Xian pretended to be reverent, but in his heart, he was wondering what kind of power Clark Carter had.
"The high-end forces in this world are powerful, but they're too chaotic. There doesn't seem to be a complete system … But it makes sense. For ordinary people, any supernatural power can easily destroy them. It doesn't matter how strong it is. It's all death, disability, or madness!"
"Alright, let's continue studying the files."
Lov coughed and continued with today's study.
Fang Xian opened a new file, browsed through it, and occasionally asked some questions.
Lov answered them in detail. This way, he had a deeper understanding of the investigator's duties and style.
One by one, the treacherous files were displayed in front of Fang Xian, revealing a dark corner of this world, allowing him to see the hidden terror and terror.
"The Giant Wilkel sighting …"
"The evil spirit in the dream of Yulin Street …"
"The strange hound that chases after death …"
"What a crazy book …"
…
Some of them were completely dealt with, and some were only temporarily restrained. They still needed to be observed and monitored regularly.
It made Fang Xian feel that this world was really lucky that it hadn't been destroyed yet.
At this moment, he placed his hand on a file and felt his heart beat faster.
"Supernatural power?"
"No, it triggered a bit of the aura in my body …"
"It's a very strong feeling …"
Expressionlessly, he opened the file and saw the name.
"Code name — Footless Bird!"
It was about a giant bird without feet that appeared on the plains of the west.
According to the description, this bird was extremely ugly and could give anyone who saw it nightmares.
The investigator at the time did not kill it. Instead, he saw the creature break through the trap and fly away.
"This bird keeps flying and never stops. According to speculation, maybe it stopped on the ground as a form of restraint."
"The Footless Bird is currently missing. If investigators find it, report it immediately!"
At the end of the file, there was a line of red words.
"Is this an internal order?"
Fang Xian closed the file with a smile. This description of the Footless Bird was similar to the Broken-Winged Bird. There might be some connection between the two.
The Broken-Winged Bird in his illusion also seemed to have no feet!
Also, he was sure that this was a good thing.
If he read it a few more times, he would probably be inspired and create another spell on the spot.
"It's worth investigating … I suspect it's related to the immortal poem and the source of the Broken-Winged Bird's power. If there's a new spell, it's probably related to this."
He pushed the file back and saw that Lov's expression was slightly unnatural.
'This is probably a test for me?'
