Wen Wen looked at the person-headed dog that was still wagging its tail and refusing to leave. He propped up his eyes with both hands and then stuck out his tongue, making a face.
"I've already remembered your scent. If you don't escape quickly, you'll regret it when I change my mind."
Wen Wen sat on the steps, pretending to be fierce and threatening the person-headed dog. Although he might gain useful abilities by capturing the person-headed dog and bringing it to the containment facility, he didn't want to do that.
At least, not now.
But this act, which worked on humans, didn't work on dogs. The person-headed dog wagged its tail at Wen Wen, seemingly begging for something.
Occasionally, it would glance back at the villa, looking at the remaining family of three, its eyes filled with tenderness.
The person-headed dog remembered a stormy night when the cold wind howled. Before it had displayed its supernatural abilities, it had shivered under the mailbox by the villa's entrance.
Back then, Jiang Wen Yue had brought it home and taken meticulous care of it.
Except for Jiang Yu Sheng, this family had treated it very well, raising it into a dog. Therefore, it was also sincerely devoted to them.
After moving into this villa, the person-headed dog began to use its abilities frequently, and its appearance became increasingly bizarre. From then on, the family's attitude towards the person-headed dog deteriorated, and they even tried to kill it several times!
But animal affection is sometimes more sincere than human affection. Despite the unfair treatment, it still wanted to protect Jiang Wen Yue and her family.
"Are you still unwilling to leave them? There will be no more ghosts haunting them, so you don't need to protect them anymore."
Once a dog had a human face, its emotions were very easy to guess, so Wen Wen easily discerned what the dog was thinking.
The person-headed dog whimpered softly, looking rather dispirited. After a while, it extended a paw and nudged Wen Wen's thigh.
"You want to come with me?" Wen Wen asked, raising an eyebrow.
The person-headed dog nodded.
"Coming with me is not as good as you imagine. You will lose your freedom," Wen Wen said, narrowing his eyes.
The person-headed dog still nodded.
"Since this is your choice, then I agree."
Wen Wen extended his right hand to the person-headed dog. The black chains from the Disaster Containment Facility spread out, enveloped it, and pulled it into the containment facility.
Throughout the process, the person-headed dog did not resist at all. This was the first time Wen Wen had encountered such a situation where a monster willingly entered the containment facility.
This was a monster that was more friendly to humans than a dog, and at the same time, a monster with more humanity than a human.
Wen Wen could not fathom the monster's thoughts, but he respected the person-headed dog's wishes.
However, to Wen Wen's surprise, the dog was not housed in the cell area but in the warehouse area, in warehouse ZHI-0001.
"Is it considered a contained object... rather than a monster?"
Wen Wen scratched his head, a little confused about the containment facility's classification standards. Perhaps, the person-headed dog would bring Wen Wen a surprise in the future.
After dealing with the person-headed dog, Wen Wen walked into the villa and beckoned to Jiao Xin Lei, "Come out with me. You must have a lot of questions for me. I'll tell you what I want to tell you."
"Shouldn't you tell me as much as possible? Why are you only telling me what you want to tell me..."
Jiao Xin Lei came out of the villa and sat on the steps in front of the villa with Wen Wen. She did indeed have too many questions for him.
"I want to know what's wrong with me. Before you appeared, I knew Uncle Jiang would die tonight. Why is that..."
"Before you came back, I knew he was going to die..."
Wen Wen stroked his chin, finding Jiao Xin Lei's ability potentially interesting. "Can you predict the future, or can you see death? The ghosts ignored her, so the latter is more likely."
"I told you before that you have extraordinary intuition, but you are not a super-powered person. You need necessary stimulation to awaken your super-powered abilities. During the time I was away, you must have been stimulated."
Jiao Xin Lei nodded. The experience in the toilet had almost scared her to cardiac arrest.
"Then you should thank me. If I hadn't left, you wouldn't have had the chance to awaken your super-powered abilities," Wen Wen said with a chuckle.
Jiao Xin Lei rolled her eyes. If she hadn't been lucky, who knew what the outcome would have been. Thank him? If it weren't for him, how could such a situation have occurred?
"Ghosts, monsters, super-powered individuals, are they all real?" Jiao Xin Lei hesitated before continuing to ask. Sudan Fiction Network
"You already know the answer to that. After experiencing all of this, can you still say they don't exist?" Wen Wen said calmly.
Yes, Jiao Xin Lei already knew the answer, because she had witnessed it all herself.
But she still wanted Wen Wen to tell her that all of this was fake, that she could return to her previous peaceful life.
Because for someone who could see death, super-powered abilities were not a good thing.
After adjusting her emotions, Jiao Xin Lei continued to ask:
"Uncle Jiang committed the crime twenty-five years ago. Why are these ghosts seeking revenge now?"
"Because the connection was only established when they moved into this villa. Those ghosts were not in the real world before."
"Connection?" Jiao Xin Lei asked curiously.
"That's right. I'll explain it to you simply. Ghosts live in another world that is completely unrelated to our world. That world is called the 'Reverse World'..."
After that, Wen Wen explained the concept of the "Outer World" and "Reverse World," as well as the conditions for ghosts to come to the real world, one by one. Finally, he concluded:
"After Jiang Yu Sheng bought the villa, he never lived in it. Instead, he erected memorial tablets in the villa's basement to mourn the deceased souls."
"Until a month ago, to prevent the family who moved into this villa from discovering what he had done, Jiang Yu Sheng burned all the spirit tablets!"
"Burned them?" Jiao Xin Lei exclaimed in shock.
"That's right, burned them. After burning them, he established a connection with all those ghosts, and those ghosts came to the real world through this passage..."
Jiao Xin Lei lowered her head. This was truly a case of self-inflicted doom. Jiang Yu Sheng could be considered to have brought about his own downfall.
"So, all of this has nothing to do with that strange dog?"
"That's right, not at all. On the contrary, it was this dog that had been protecting this family. I don't know what abilities that dog has, but it's clear that it can render these ghosts harmless. It's like a nemesis to these ghosts."
"Then, what about that dog?"
After Wen Wen said that, she suddenly developed a good impression of the dog. Although it looked bizarre, she wanted to keep it.
"It's gone. The Jiang family is no longer in danger, and there are no more ghosts here. Why would it stay here?" Wen Wen lied with his eyes open.
Jiao Xin Lei nodded, believing Wen Wen's explanation, as the family had indeed not treated the dog very well.
