Chapter 153 If It’s Not Cool to Catch Ghosts, Then Why Catch Ghosts?
"2002" is the most special department in the Hong Kong Island Police. It requires the signature of the Chief Superintendent of each police district at the same time every year to prevent it from being "disbanded."
It sounds like a big deal, but in fact there are only two people, one ghost, and three "operators" in total.
Chen Zhazhi, the previous operator of "2002", served as the department's top management as "logistics" after his retirement. He basically made all kinds of ghost-killing equipment used in the movie.
You Chao, Ah Chao, the current operator of "2002", nicknamed Chef Xie, a man who can be the best actor without cooking.
Sam, who was originally a "patrol" with Chao, was kidnapped by robbers during a mission. Because he and Chao "failed to communicate the code", he was shot dead by Chao. After joining 2002, he became Chao's ghost partner. .
The composition of the department is that simple. In other words, if Lin Ge wanted to join, all he needed was Chen Zhazhi’s approval.
There is a trail behind Chen Zhi's Chinese and Western paper-making shops that leads directly to the homes in the residential buildings behind. The living room is filled with a lot of paper-making equipment and gadgets that are being developed. Several bedrooms have been transformed into conference rooms and training rooms by Chen Zhi-zhi, giving people the feeling of a "secret base" and can be regarded as a "2002" "The office area of this department.
Lin Ge casually picked up a few paper-made ghost exorcism tools and took a look at them. It had to be said that Chen Zhazhi still had some talent, and the equipment he made would have no problem dealing with ordinary ghosts.
"Hey, take a look. Don't damage it. You'll have to pay for it." Chen Zhazhi reminded.
Lin Ge put down the paper-made sword obediently and nodded: "Okay, Da Vinci."
"Da Vinci? Who is that?" Chen Zhazhi asked.
"Oh, a high-end inventor I know is famous for inventing all kinds of very practical spy equipment. You look a lot like him."
Chen Zhazhi straightened his few hair and said confidently: "Right, I'll just say that I'm a researcher. Oh, what a pity, why did I get into this industry? The market is sluggish now. Even the underworld coins have depreciated."
Lin Ge: ...Every painting is full of zeros. It would be strange if this "seal" method does not depreciate.
Chen Zhazhi brought Lin Ge to the conference room, asked him to sit down, and then took out three thick contracts and placed them in front of her.
Lin Ge sat at the conference table, looking at the three agreements and contracts placed in front of him, and even a "life and death contract". He didn't know where to start complaining for a while.
Call "2002" informal, as there are various employment contracts; call it formal, even things like "life and death contracts" are included.
Chen Zhazhi sat opposite Lin Ge, Ah Chao sat aside and checked his cell phone, while Sam was hiding at the door, looking at Lin Ge with some caution. He always felt that this man had a very sinister aura, and it seemed that There is something more terrifying than the red-clothed ghost.
"Let's take a look. Although our department is very dangerous, it has good benefits. Even if you die, you can continue to serve. From birth to death to reincarnation, we provide one-stop service..."
Chen Zhazhi introduced the situation of 2002 to Lin Ge very enthusiastically, which was completely different from his previous rigid attitude of refusal.
Ah Chao scrolled through his phone and snorted disdainfully: "Hey, you're not recruiting people, you're driving them away."
Anyone who has watched this movie knows that Chen Zhazhi is the kind of person who has a foul mouth and a soft heart. Every day he talks about Ah Chao's fate as the "lone star of evil", but when Ah Chao gets into trouble later, he takes it with him without saying a word. If you have the equipment, go fight the water ghost.
"I have no problem. Then, please give me your advice in the future." Lin Ge readily signed his name on the three contracts.
Chen Zhazhi said while checking the contract: "I will send your file for review later. I will compare your information in the information database and confirm that you have no criminal record. Then you can officially join the job. Congratulations, you are now An intern since 2002.”
"cough."
Chen Zhazhi coughed lightly, as if he was hiding something, and came up to him embarrassedly and asked: "What about...since we are all our own people, can you call out your red-clothed ghost to have a look?" I have been working in 2002 for half my life, and I have never seen a red-clothed ghost with such a powerful evil spirit. Usually, when I see a red-clothed ghost, I will die or become disabled. Now I have the opportunity to let me hold my hand. Next time I see those old guys, I will I also have the ability to brag.”
"Are you sure?" Lin Ge raised his eyebrows.
Chen Zhazhi asked very uncertainly: "With you watching, there should be no problem, right? Or are you not completely subdued?"
"If you prepare some candies, maybe she will be happy to make friends with you." Lin Ge said.
"Child?" Chen Zhazhi was experienced after all. As soon as he heard Lin Ge's words, he immediately understood that he was raising a kid.
Lin Ge nodded, and Chen Zhazhi said "No problem", then ran out and came back with two paper toys and a few bags of candy.
Ah Chao glanced at him and said calmly: "You are really powerful, you can make such a stingy person bleed profusely."
Although the two paper toys on the table, plus a few bags of candy, add up to dozens of yuan, Chen Zhazhi is, after all, a tough guy who charges one and a half for a cigarette. To him, this is indeed a big deal. "Hemorrhage".
Lin Ge patted the travel bag: "Little girl, I have prepared new toys and candies for you. Do you want to come out and play?"
"Hee hee hee--"
With a cold laugh, Chen Zhazhi and Ah Chao instantly felt as if they were falling into an ice cellar. Ah Chao stood up instinctively and subconsciously touched the gun at his waist.
Sam immediately ran away. Although Chen Zhazhi also wanted to escape, this was the first time he saw a red-clothed ghost with a fierce aura. He plucked up the courage... hid behind Ah Chao, stuck his head out and looked at Lin Ge's Look in the direction.
"Hee hee hee--"
"Toy."
I saw two paper toys placed on the round desk flying up out of thin air, and with a "click-click" sound, they were crumpled into two balls of waste paper.
"dislike."
As soon as these three words came out, the temperature in the room instantly dropped several degrees, and Chen Zhazhi's teeth were chattering.
There were two toys there, a paper Transformers and a paper Barbie doll, which obviously did not arouse the little girl's interest.
Chen Zhazhi suppressed his fear and said, "No, I don't like it. It's okay. I don't like it. It's okay. I'll take you to choose a new one in a while."
"Hee hee hee--"
"OK."
Chen Zhazhi instantly felt that the desperate and cold pressure disappeared. He bravely asked: "She, where is she? Why can't I, me, my psychic capturing mirror, even see her?" You can’t even see it, this spirit is at least level 10, right?”
"Oh, behind you." Lin Ge said calmly.
Chen Zhazhi turned around alertly, and then less than twenty centimeters away from his face, a small, pale face covered with black lines suddenly appeared.
As soon as he met the little girl's white eyes, Chen Zhazhi's eyes turned white and he fainted. Ah Chao quickly supported him and moved him to a stool to sit down.
Lin Ge shook his head angrily, took out a lollipop and said, "Girl, I told you not to be like this, it would scare people to death."
"Hee hee hee--"
"Is not fun."
The little girl turned into a black smoke and flew back to her travel bag with the lollipop in hand.
Lin Ge opened his eyes and looked at Ah Chao with his pupils. Sure enough, he saw a faint white light on his chest.
The eyes of Huang Ni's two sisters, Huang Ni's is for chasing evil spirits and can see ghosts and evil spirits within a thousand miles, while Huang Shang's eyes are for breaking obstacles and can see through all illusions and confusions.
Although the effects are different, it does not affect Lin Ge's ability to find fragments of "original power" through his eyes.
As the phone rang, Chen Zhazhi sat up from his seat and ran to answer the phone.
"Location."
"oh."
"Go right away."
After hanging up the phone, he looked at Ah Chao and said: "There is a case happening in the office building at No. 13 North Street. Go and take a look. The new guy, Zhao Dezhu, right? Come along and have a look, and get familiar with our work process."
Lin Ge inherited Zhao Dezhu's number, and the identity assigned to him by the Lord God in the world of reincarnation was naturally Zhao Dezhu.
Ah Chao grabbed Chen Zhazhi who was about to leave and said, "Wait a minute, the mixture of several models of a1a2 has been used up. Please replenish it."
"Why make up for it? You don't have to pay for these things? Can't you save a little?" Chen Zhazhi said in a low voice: "This makes you bring the red ghost, which just reduces the cost. Besides, if everything goes well, Why should I sign him with you?"
Lin Ge: ...Da Vinci, you really think I’m deaf, right?
Of course, after all is said and done, Chen Zhazhi still replenished Ah Chao's equipment. As for Lin Ge, who also reached out for equipment, he said, "As an intern, just follow and watch. The equipment will only be available after the equipment is upgraded."
…
Lin Ge and Ah Chao went to the parking lot to pick up the car. It was an unlicensed government car, a "high-end vehicle" that was used to handle cases that ran a red light on the street.
The two drove all the way to the scene of the incident. There were already police cars parked in front of the office building. When they saw the two arriving, a commander with a strong accent came forward and said, "Are you 2002? This incident is very troublesome. Do you need me?" Apply to your superiors for support?”
Ah Chao straightened his black windbreaker and said, "We're here, so it won't be a problem. Let's talk about the specific matter."
The chief said: "A female student jumped off the building, but... the location was on the rooftop. The forensic examination showed that there were no traces of movement on the body, and it was confirmed that it was the place where the first crime occurred. But the strange thing is that the female student inferred that it was from six to seven hundred feet. It fell down somewhere, but there were no such tall buildings around it.”
"Unless she fell from the plane, but we checked the records. From morning to now, there is no record of any flight on Hong Kong Island flying from here. It's incredible! I contacted them, but they said you are experts in handling this kind of thing, So your department..."
Ah Chao interrupted the officer and asked: "Where is the forensic doctor? Is there anyone else on the rooftop? Let him all..."
Before Ah Chao finished speaking, there was a loud "bang" and a man fell from the rooftop and hit the police car.
"Quick, get everyone out!" Ah Chao urged.
The commander immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted: "Get out, get out quickly, everyone, yes, everyone!"
Ah Chao walked to the open space in front, took out a small red medicine bottle the size of a thumb, and smashed it on the ground. With a "whoosh" sound, a round fire ring ignited on the ground.
"Everyone, step across the ring of fire. People who were born in the year of Dragon, Pig or Dog, don't look at the building." After saying that, he took out a handful of money papers and threw them into the ring of fire.
Lin Ge didn't open his eyes at this time. He was born in the year of Dragon, so he happened to want to take this opportunity to see the setting of "seeing ghosts" in this world.
I saw a thick layer of purple clouds above the rooftop of the office building, and thick black smoke below, covering the entire rooftop.
“Even if you don’t have your eyes open in this world and your resentment reaches a certain level, you can still see the existence of ghosts.”
The surrounding police officers were unmoved and looked at Ah Chao with puzzled expressions.
The only people who know about the 2002 department are the big guys in each police district. These small police officers have never even heard of it, let alone seeing it.
This is just like yesterday, a modern city that advocated science. Today, if I tell you that you are moving from science to metaphysics, naturally not many people will believe it.
At this moment, a large group of police officers and staff ran out from the gate of the office building as if they were fleeing.
"Ghost, there is a ghost!"
"Help!"
"There's a ghost!"
Those people looked panicked, rolling and crawling, obviously frightened.
Suddenly, there was a loud "bang" sound from the direction of the rooftop, and a signal pot as big as a car spun several times in the air and hit Ah Chao's direction.
A traffic policeman behind Ah Chao stepped back in fright, but Ah Chao calmly looked up at the rapidly falling signal pot.
Lin Ge prepared the magic formula and was about to pop out a evil-suppressing talisman to blow up the signal pot. However, Ah Chao's partner Sam took action first, turned into a black smoke and flew away, catching the signal pot in the air, and As if to show off his strength, he rolled it several times and threw it to the side of the road.
"Forensic doctor, it's a forensic doctor!" A police officer came forward to check the dented police car and found that the deceased was the forensic doctor who went up to investigate before.
With the forensic doctor who was thrown downstairs and the signal pot, the people around him immediately believed Ah Chao's words and hurriedly stepped over the fire ring on the ground.
But the people around him couldn't see Sam, and they thought it was Ah Chao who had used some kind of special power. Ah Chao calmly straightened his windbreaker and walked towards the office building under the watchful eye of the policewoman.
Lin Ge followed Ah Chao to the elevator, glanced at Ah Chao who was still playing cool, and said lightly: "That policewoman... shouldn't be able to see in the elevator."
Ah Chao straightened his hair and said calmly: "What do you know? There are many police officers staying in the surveillance room. Maybe they are watching the surveillance at the moment."
"But you made them all withdraw."
Ah Chao:......
"I said you are here to cause trouble, right? Our department is also a 'stranger' after all. How can we be a stranger if we are not cool enough? You must know that what we are dealing with are ghosts, who are more ferocious than gangsters. If we don't treat our own How can you stand up to metaphysics when you are forced to pull it together?"
Lin Ge: ...It makes so much sense, I can’t even refute it.
Therefore, it is outdated to wear Taoist robes to catch ghosts. Wear suits, windbreakers, and be cool to keep up with the trend.
Zi.
Zizzi.
At this time, the lights in the elevator flashed wildly.
"Oh." Ah Chao sighed and said in a very disdainful tone: "Can you calm down, why are you acting like this? My eyes are dazzled."
Sam's figure appeared in the corner, using Ah Chao's body to separate him from Lin Ge: "You are a human and I am a ghost. You can't feel the resentment and evil spirit on his body. I can feel it. I'm afraid that I will still feel it." Isn’t it okay?”
Ah Chao glanced at Sam: "Are you afraid of your own people?"
"You have only been on the job for one day, and you treat him as one of your own. If that red-clothed ghost loses control, we will all be finished!"
Lin Ge sighed: "You two, I'm really not deaf. It's not good for you to say this in front of me every time, isn't it?"
"Shut up, newcomer." Ah Chao and Sam shouted at the same time.
Lin Ge:......
Ah Chao looked at Sam dissatisfied: "You really failed to be a ghost. You were so scared by a little girl that you lost your composure."
"You are awesome, so don't ask me for help."
Ah Chao said: "You still have the nerve to say that you just shoveled the 'pot' away so quickly, which shows that I am not cool enough. Didn't I say it before, when encountering this kind of situation, you have to take action at the last moment." It shows that I am not afraid of danger. There was a policewoman looking at me just now, you know?"
Sam said calmly: "But I feel like you're scared."
"Me? Scared? Do you think I am you?"
Sam pointed to his forehead and said, "I see the corners of your eyes are twitching and you are breaking into a cold sweat. You must be begging me to take action."
Ah Chao replied: "There is a female police officer looking at me. What's wrong with my eyes being electrified?"
"Okay! Next time you blast the pot with your head! That would be so cool!"
"Okay, I'll support you. The worst case scenario is that I die. If I die, you won't have any revenge to take."
The two were bickering, and suddenly their faces tightened. Ah Chao frowned and looked at the elevator floor display: "This is only the 18th floor, and the resentment is so heavy. It may be a ghost, be careful. Hey, newcomer, follow me for a while, don't run around. "
Before Lin Ge said anything, Sam sighed: "Hey, someone else is a master of red-clothed ghosts, how can he still be afraid of ordinary ghosts?"
"You know nothing, resentful souls, evil ghosts, fierce ghosts... Li ghosts and red-clothed ghosts belong to the same level, but the latter releases the resentment of the ghost to the maximum for some reason. Although his red-clothed ghost has great resentment and evil spirit, , but he is a child after all. Children’s minds are unpredictable, so it’s good if they don’t cause trouble. Do you still expect her to help? "
Lin Ge: ...The summary is quite accurate.
Sam said: "That's true. By the way, newcomer, have you ever cooperated with your ghost?"
"have."
Lin Ge nodded honestly. In theory, whether she was disobedient before or obedient now, the little girl's record so far is pretty good.
Ah Chao wrinkled his nose and sniffed: "Whether you have it or not, you are still an intern now, so don't take the risk. This resentment is very strong, I think the spirit is at least level 4. The rooftop is on the 42nd floor, and you can smell the resentment 20 floors away , this ghost must be very vicious. Judging from the circumstances, he must have jumped to his death."
Sam said: "Jumped to death? That must be a flying ghost. Hey, you are cool, but you can't fly, right? You'll see me later."
Lin Ge knew that according to the "setting" of the movie, the abilities of ghosts are related to the way they die. For example, those who are burned to death are fire ghosts who can control fire; those who are drowned are water ghosts who can control water; those who jump to death are Flying ghost, flying very fast...
Generally speaking, the setting here is similar to the various super-powered zombies in "Zombie".
At this time, the elevator door slowly opened.
"Spread out and watch my performance!" Sam made a fierce gesture, shouted and flew away.
Ah Chao shook his head helplessly. Lin Ge was about to follow him out when he heard a miserable howl and Sam flew back, crashed into the elevator wall and disappeared.
Lin Ge raised his eyes and asked in confusion: "So... is he performing a wall-walking technique?"
Ah Chao took out a pair of black leather gloves and put them on: "I told him that this ghost is very vicious. I don't believe it. I deserve it."
