"The phone sent messages on its own..." Wen Wen became slightly serious. The matter sounded rather interesting.
"It was precisely because I occasionally noticed that message that I realized the situation might be related to this text message."
"So I started investigating the source of the text messages. It turned out that among everyone who had forwarded this message, more than one person had encountered situations similar to Zi Xuan's, and their text messages were sent out only after they had their incidents!"
Wen Wen frowned. If Wang Junyi's words were true, this was already a very obvious supernatural event. Why hadn't the local Hunter Association taken action?
Or, had the local Hunter Association determined that this did not fall under supernatural events?
"Besides my father, have you sought help from anyone else?" Wen Wen asked after thinking for a moment.
"Of course, I've sought all possible help, but everyone just took me for a lunatic. No one believed the things I encountered."
If he had merely sought to resolve his son's problem quietly, then the Hunter Association's inaction might have been understandable. But he had already openly sought help, so why did the Hunter Association still turn a blind eye?
Despite his doubts, Wen Wen still couldn't take his word for it. He decided to verify it himself before making any further plans.
"Leave your address. I'll come to find you this afternoon."
Wang Junyi, sensing that Wen Wen was asking him to leave, left his information and departed from Wen Wen's home.
After Wang Junyi left, Wen Wen remained silent for a moment, then locked the door, bought two bouquets of flowers from the flower shop, and headed straight to the Lugang Cemetery to pay respects to his parents.
This time, it was both a memorial visit and an investigation.
He wanted to see if Wang Junyi's words were true.
On the way, Wen Wen's mood was conflicted. He had known that going home wouldn't make him happy, but he hadn't expected to receive news that would completely unsettle him.
He hoped the coffin was empty, because that would prove he wasn't alone in this world.
Yet, he also vaguely hoped that his father had truly died in that accident, because that would mean he hadn't been deceived by his father.
The third cub, driving the car, felt the intense killing aura emanating from Wen Wen, and the entire snake shrank a little.
Upon arriving at the cemetery, Wen Wen first placed the two bouquets of flowers in front of the graves and bowed respectively. After a moment of silence, he unleashed his spiritual sense.
As a superpowered individual, he didn't need to open the coffin to verify whether there was a body inside. He only needed to spread his spiritual sense to get the desired result. In his spiritual sense, the presence or absence of a body felt completely different!
A moment later, Wen Wen opened his eyes, looking at Wen Rui's grave with surprise.
It was indeed empty!
This meant there was a high probability that Wen Rui was not dead, or that his body had been moved elsewhere after his death.
But whichever possibility it was, Wen Wen was determined to investigate it thoroughly!
He stood up, his eyes gleaming with a peculiar light.
"First, I'll deal with the matter at Wang Junyi's place, see if I can find any clues related to him, and then go to the Hunter Association..."
Having made up his mind, Wen Wen began using his hunter terminal to search for information about Wang Junyi's son.
As long as a hunter needed it, almost all ordinary people and the vast majority of superpowered individuals' personal information in the federation would be unconditionally accessible to hunters, so Wen Wen could easily find the information he wanted.
The records about Wang Zi Xuan only mentioned that he had been in a coma for ten days. As for the strange phenomena described by Wang Junyi, there was no trace of them. The matter of the phone automatically sending text messages was also not recorded. Sudan Novel Network
"If Wang Junyi is telling the truth, then this is a significant oversight in the work of the Lugang City Association..."
However, Wen Wen could understand such an oversight.
He knew how complicated the work of a basic demon hunter squad was. It was normal for cases like simply being in a coma for ten days without casualties to not attract their attention.
But it was inexcusable that there was no record at all.
Then, following the clues provided by Wang Junyi, he checked the cases of the two people who had previously met with trouble due to the text messages. As expected, their incidents were also not recorded.
Wen Wen frowned and began to screen the data. He ultimately discovered that although the number of deaths due to superpowers in Lugang City was similar to other cities, there were quite a few cases of accidental deaths and premeditated homicides by ordinary people. Especially in the past few months, the numbers had increased significantly.
Each case seemed to have no problem. From the case files, it appeared that the people here were simply unlucky, but the sheer number of them raised questions.
This reminded Wen Wen of the white-clothed figures he encountered in Furong River City. These so-called 'accidental events' seemed to have similar methods to theirs.
He stood up, glanced at the address left by Wang Junyi, and left the cemetery.
What exactly had happened could only be determined by him going there himself.
...
"Time to eat, Zi Xuan."
Yu Hui looked tenderly at her son, who was over twenty years old, caring for him as if he were an infant.
The incident had happened three years ago. Initially, Wang Junyi was rational, while she had fallen into despair. As time passed, Wang Junyi became more irritable with each passing year, while she became gentler with each passing year.
No matter what, Wang Zi Xuan was her son.
Wang Zi Xuan, with a pale face, sat blankly at the dining table. He picked up his rice bowl with vacant eyes and, as if forcing himself, swallowed some food.
Then, his eyes flickered around chaotically. He moved his foot and seemed to step on something, letting out a chilling laugh. He bent down and lifted the object, revealing a centipede as thick as his thumb!
Then, in front of Yu Hui, Wang Zi Xuan proceeded to devour the centipede alive!
The powerful body of the insect struggled in his mouth. Foul-smelling bodily fluids stained Wang Zi Xuan's lips, but he ate with great enjoyment.
Yu Hui picked up a tissue to wipe his mouth and smiled. Watching her son eat happily was one of the greatest joys of a mother.
In the beginning, when Wang Zi Xuan did such things, he would do them secretly from Yu Hui. Occasionally, Yu Hui would discover him, which would scare her half to death.
But gradually, Wang Zi Xuan seemed to have accepted his abnormality as normal. As long as there were no outsiders at home, his behavior was always so terrifying.
However, no matter what he did now, Yu Hui had become accustomed to it.
Wang Junyi pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing this scene, the veins on his forehead began to bulge.
"You're doing this again. You don't need to treat him like this. He's not our son anymore!"
Yu Hui said calmly, "What else can we do? Tie him up? Or send him to a mental hospital? You said you could find our son, but three years have passed."
Wang Junyi said in a deep voice, "This time is different. I found the son of Detective Wen. He said he has a way to help me."
"You always say that." Yu Hui was unmoved.
"Can you be a little more rational!"
Wang Junyi exclaimed. Wang Zi Xuan's predicament hadn't driven Wang Junyi to despair, but his wife's gradual numbness had turned Wang Junyi into a powder keg.
Just as he was about to explode, he saw Wang Zi Xuan staring intently at him and forcefully suppressed his anger.
Wang Junyi was well aware that Wang Zi Xuan was not just outwardly abnormal; his abilities were also abnormal. Losing his temper rashly around him might lead to terrible consequences.
