Chapter 1023

Sergeant Huang Yuanbo's white-gloved hand examined the silver-white metal sheet over and over again, but he didn't dare to simply touch the button. After a long time, he put it into the evidence bag and continued with the other procedures. Gu Liang suppressed his curiosity and focused on watching the Sergeant work. Occasionally, he would help according to the instructions. More and more content that he learned in the police academy appeared in his mind, verifying with each other.

"Seems like it's troublesome …" the sheriff suddenly sighed, but his tone was relaxed.

Gu Liang was confused and plucked up his courage to ask, "Sheriff Huang, is this an unsolved case? That's why you find it troublesome? "

But why was he relaxed? Since it would be an unsolved case, why would he need to spend energy on investigating?

Huang Yuanbo smiled and stood in front of the charred body, "It's not an isolated case to die from lightning on a night without thunder and lightning. There have been many similar cases in the past, some involving supernatural phenomena, some involving organizations such as the Spirit Society."

"Just last year, Detective Charlotte from Scotland Yard mentioned a similar case. The victim was also struck by lightning on a night without thunder and also held onto a silvery-white metal piece. The only difference was that the victim's body was special and was suspected to be a follower of a demon. It was only discovered many years after his death. Therefore, there is reason to believe that this is another case involving cults and supernatural phenomena. The Criminal Investigation Division doesn't need to take over but the Special Operations Division directly under the Chief Police Officer Committee."

Gu Liang was dumbfounded and confused. It was as if the supernatural novel he read last night had become reality. What supernatural phenomena? What supernatural phenomena?

What was Sheriff Huang talking about?

"Have you read the World Anomaly Records?" Huang Yuanbo asked casually as he played with his gloves.

"Yes, yes!" Gu Liang answered subconsciously.

Sheriff Huang smiled, "It's good that you've read it. Everything recorded in it is true."

"Ah …" Gu Liang's mouth opened wide.

"The Human Resource Department has approved your application for permanent employment. There will be a department that will accept you next Monday. That's why I asked someone to lend you the internal information of the police department in advance so that you won't be at a loss when you encounter supernatural phenomena," Huang Yuanbo chuckled, "Didn't you feel that the content inside was unheard of? This is all confidential information! "

Dad, mom, I, I don't want to do this anymore … After the shock, Gu Liang felt nervous and wanted to resign. How did an ordinary person like him walk into the supernatural world?

Huang Yuanbo glanced at him and said, "When we encounter similar situations, we will report it directly to the Chief Police Officer Committee and they will send the Special Operations Division to handle it. We only need to be responsible for things related to normal people. Don't be afraid. Even if you don't become a police, you won't encounter supernatural things in your life? What's there and you can be professional help, what are you afraid of? "

His relaxed tone made Gu Liang calm down gradually. He forced a smile and said, "Sheriff Huang is right."

At this moment, the other colleagues from the Criminal Investigation Division had arrived. Some of them were protecting the scene, while others were returning to New Scotland Yard to submit a report to the Chief Police Officer Committee, waiting for the Special Operations Division to take over. Gu Liang didn't have the time to find out which department he would be taken over by before he had a bunch of chores to do. He was so busy that he even had a night duty.

At this time, the other colleagues in the Criminal Investigation Division arrived. Some protected the scene, some went back to New Scotland Yard to submit the report to the Chief Police Officer Committee, waiting for the Special Operations Division to take over. Gu Liang didn't have time to find out which department would take him over before he had a bunch of chores to do. He was so busy that he even had a night duty in the end.

That was because the charred corpse and the items related to him were still here!

After the Special Operations Division sent someone to take a look, they thought that it was an unimportant matter. Moreover, they had been busy with a big case recently and could not spare any manpower. They would hand over the case in a few days, so Sergeant Huang Yuanbo specially asked Gu Liang to guard the case overnight.

Gu Liang was a person who liked supernatural horror stories. As he sat, he muttered to himself, "What is the silver metal piece that the watch merchant was holding in his hand before he died?

Gu Liang was tired of pacing and sat down again. There were a few evidence bags on the table in front of him. There were exquisite pocket watches, gold bars and other miscellaneous items, including the silver metal piece. Gu Liang was courageous and curious. He took out a pair of white gloves and put them on. He opened the evidence bag carefully and took out the silver metal piece. He looked at it against the light.

He looked around, gritted his teeth and put on a pair of white gloves. He opened the evidence bag carefully and took out the metal piece. He looked at it against the light.

The design had a sense of beauty that surpassed the times. It wasn't transparent, the pattern was weird and there was only one button …

Suddenly, Gu Liang's hand slipped and the silver metal piece fell down. He tried to grab it in a hurry but accidentally grabbed the button. His heart skipped a beat, fearing that something bad would happen.

There were no flashes of light or black fog. Gu Liang heaved a sigh of relief. He didn't dare to act rashly and prepared to put the metal piece back into the evidence bag.

At this moment, the surface of the metal piece wriggled as if it was alive. A layer of silver was peeled off and this layer of silver condensed into a thumb-sized bead. It was deep on the inside and shallow on the outside, like a deep eye.

Gu Liang stood up abruptly, knocked down the chair and retreated. He wanted to avoid this weird change. He didn't have time to consider if he was in trouble. He just wanted to escape from this horrible scene.

After the deep silver-white eye condensed, all the changes disappeared. At this time, Gu Liang had yet to escape from the evidence room.

He stopped in his tracks as if something was calling him. After swallowing hard, he felt that since there was nothing weird, he should clean up the table lest he got fired.

The evidence wasn't lost. Instead, there was one more. Gu Liang put on white gloves and picked it up. He realized that it was engraved with rows of tiny words,

"Eye of Desire, the divine item of the God of Storms and Natural Disasters. It can fulfill all your wishes as long as you make the corresponding contribution."

Gu Liang was stunned and suddenly had a strange feeling. He had read so many supernatural novels but this was the first time he saw a utensil that was labeled as a divine item. Although it was obvious at a glance, the mysterious and unknown feeling of horror was lost. It was a country bumpkin!

"Making contributions and fulfilling wishes, this is indeed the style of a cult." Gu Liang shook his head and snorted, "If I wish to increase my shooting ability, how will it fulfill my wish?"

As soon as he finished his sentence, a deep thunderous voice sounded in his ears, "With the accumulation of contributions, the wish will be fulfilled."

Traces of silver electric light flowed out and Gu Liang's body was instantly paralyzed. His brain suddenly felt a piercing pain, his vision changed subtly and his motor nerves were strengthened to some extent.

Everything passed quickly as if nothing had happened. Gu Liang put down the Eye of Desire in horror and looked at his hands in a daze. He felt that they had become much more dexterous.

Could it be that the wish was really fulfilled? he thought in confusion.

The whole night was filled with random thoughts. When the next day came, Gu Liang put back the silver metal sheet that had been peeled. He took the Eye of Desire and handed it over to his colleagues. He then hurried to the shooting range to test his shooting ability.

Bang bang bang!

Ten consecutive shots and every shot hit the bull's eye. Gu Liang stood rooted to the ground in disbelief.

His shooting ability had always been barely passable!

The Eye of Desire could really fulfill wishes!

Why hadn't he heard of the God of Storms and Natural Disasters having such divine power?

Suddenly, a man appeared beside him. He was wearing a black coat in the style of Scotland Yard. His face was thin and his eyes were dark and red. His presence was very weak.

"Not bad," the man nodded, "extraordinary shooting ability."

He looked at Gu Liang's police badge and said indifferently, "Gu Liang, right? Report to the Special Operations Division on Monday. "

With that, he turned around and left, not giving any room for rejection.

Special Operations Division? Gu Liang was shocked. He was about to reject but he couldn't see the other party anymore.

Could it be that the Special Operations Division is really lacking in manpower recently that they even want to recruit someone like me?

He made up his mind to resign on Monday. Since he had the Eye of Desire, he could do anything by himself.

However, would he end up like the watch merchant and be struck to death by lightning?

…

On Monday, Gu Liang finally found the Special Operations Division located in an old-fashioned bungalow after asking for directions several times. He saw the man in the black coat.

Just as he was about to speak, the other party said, "You've been assigned to the first team and follow them to investigate the recent big cases."

"I, I think …" Gu Liang quickly spoke but before he could finish, the other party interrupted, "This case involves a newly emerged cult and is very likely related to the three hundred years of lost history in the Far East region."

Eh? Gu Liang was curious, "Related to the three hundred years of lost history?"

"Three hundred years ago, there was a so-called Buddhist and Taoist organization in the Far East. However, a short man with a small mustache appeared at that time. He was originally a painter and later came into contact with the top secret of the Buddhist organization, the Buddha's Palm. He was tempted by the devil and practiced the Buddha's Palm in reverse. In the end, he became a world-destroying demon and destroyed the Far East civilization. Now, there is an organization that worships him. This will help us figure out what exactly happened three hundred years ago." The man in the black coat said concisely as he led Gu Liang into a dark room. There was a flag hanging in the room. The flag was red with two black S shaped characters intertwining in the opposite direction. It gave off a creepy feeling that made one's hair stand on end.

"This is the symbol of the Anti-Buddhist Sect!"

Seeing this symbol and hearing the introduction of the man in black, Gu Liang suddenly heard a deep voice that sounded like thunder.

"Investigate the Anti-Buddhist Sect and receive contributions!"
