The Atlas of Heaven Fetal Heart. Chapter 111: Influence.
Wu Dajin hesitated for a moment after hearing Chen Chuan's instructions, even though he had been very cooperative earlier. "But the Ancestral Hall..."
He didn't care about any Flying Head; he only cared about the townspeople of the small town. As long as the townspeople were safe, the Flying Head could go wherever it wanted. There was no need to chase after the remaining one, right?
Chen Chuan saw through his thoughts immediately and said, "The Flying Head in town is gone, but if this Flying Head is still around, there's no guarantee that what happened before won't happen again."
Wu Dajin was shocked. This was very likely, and he immediately responded, "I'll take care of it right away!"
Chen Chuan watched his figure hurrying away. It couldn't be said that Wu Dajin's vision was narrow. Living in this world, many people only care about what's in front of them, staying within their own circles, not wanting to bother with anything else, because sometimes bothering doesn't lead to anything good.
At this time, most of the onlookers had already scrambled away. They knew how terrifying it was. However, one had to admire the spirit of some people to watch the excitement. Chen Chuan saw several people retching while still clinging to the barrier rope, peering in this direction, only missing a phone in their hands.
The two security guards were still endlessly kowtowing, their Influence hadn't faded. Even shaking their shoulders couldn't stop them. After waiting for a while, Wu Dajin became impatient and ordered, "Damn it, move them to the bottom of the newly built Altar!" 𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙥𝒖𝒃.𝙘𝙤𝒎
Seeing this scene, Chen Chuan thought for a moment and decided, "Well, let's not bother with two things at once. Let them finish kowtowing in one go."
Because they had organized it once before, building another altar was easy. The security guards quickly put it together and brought over a sheep, knocking it unconscious and placing it on top.
Then everyone retreated and waited there. In fact, after the Flying Head in Wujia Town was dealt with, there was nothing left for the Commission Company to do. They could turn around and leave. Asking them to deal with another Flying Head? Sure, but you'd have to submit another commission. However, the reason they stayed was entirely for Chen Chuan's sake.
Because they could see that Chen Chuan was purely looking out for them just now, so they were returning the favor, willing to repay him for this kindness. Anyway, they didn't need to do anything themselves, and to be honest, making friends with an expert who could handle Supernatural Entities would always be helpful to them.
Chen Chuan stood not far from the altar, looking at the sky. He wasn't sure if another Flying Head would be attracted after dealing with one, but he was just taking a chance.
However, Flying Heads didn't seem to have much of a brain. As the crude sacrificial ritual began, another Flying Head actually flew back before long.
During this time, he also reloaded his bullets.
The Flying Head circled in the sky and then swooped down towards the altar, quickly starting to devour the sheep below.
Chen Chuan adjusted his breathing. It was his first time dealing with something like this, and he had no experience, relying entirely on improvisation. But this time, he had a general idea, so he took a step forward and, before the Flying Head could enter its alert range, he launched himself, rushing forward like an arrow, and then brought his knife across in one smooth motion!
The force of this strike was so fast and fierce that it not only cut the Flying Head in half but also split the sheep carcass and the entire altar in two!
The two halves of the Flying Head twitched for a moment and then stopped moving.
Chen Chuan glanced at himself, and the signs of his fading also deepened at the same time. He didn't pay much attention to it. Compared to the Cinema Phantom he encountered last time, this was a minor degree.
He flicked his knife lightly, walked back, and instructed Wu Dajin , "Captain Wu , don't get close to these things for now. They'll rot on their own in a few days. Then bury them in the ground."
Wu Dajin glanced at the Flying Head. After being split open, all that was revealed inside were gray-black, withered tissues. The two halves of the face still had a mocking smile, which looked a little creepy. He couldn't help but shiver and nodded. Then he hurriedly asked, "Then, then Commission Chen, what will happen to those who were Influenced by the Flying Head?"
Chen Chuan said, "Most people will be fine after resting for a few days, but those who were particularly deeply Influenced... take good care of them."
It was currently unknown what form the damage from these Supernatural Entities took. Everyone who participated today was harmed to some extent, but the degree varied.
People with Breathing Technique and Mutated Tissue might be fine in a moment, but ordinary people would definitely suffer deeper Influence, especially the elderly and children, who couldn't compare to adults.
Wu Dajin understood what he meant, but he was somewhat mentally prepared. In his opinion, this result was already very good. He stepped forward and grabbed Chen Chuan's hand, solemnly saying, "Thank you, Commission Chen. The people of our Wujia Town will remember your help."
He cupped his hands to the surrounding people from the Commission Company, "Thank you all. Thank you for giving me, Wu, Face just now. If you ever come to our Wujia Town in the future, we will definitely treat you well."
However, most of the people from the Commission Company were indifferent to his words, and only a few gave some response. Wu Dajin didn't mind.
Chen Chuan gave him some more instructions on things to pay attention to. Seeing that there were no problems, he got into Ren Shu's car and returned to the city.
Ren Shu watched him solve the problem throughout the day and was very impressed. Unlike other partners, his impression of clients didn't just come from other people's accounts. He had witnessed some clients' actions, and they were only targeting ordinary events, far less stimulating than today.
Although the Company had decided to specialize in handling Supernatural Entity commissions, this was the first time he had actually seen a real Supernatural Entity. The composure and calmness that Chen Chuan showed from beginning to end made him feel that they had hired the right person. An expert was indeed an expert.
He couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Chen, is it as easy as today to solve other commissions?"
Chen Chuan said seriously, "Actually, it's not easy, because solving Supernatural Entity problems mainly relies on prior knowledge and preparation, and taking the right approach. If the method is incorrect, the trouble and difficulty will increase tenfold."
Ren Shu thought of how helpless so many people were before Chen Chuan arrived and couldn't help but nod in agreement.
Chen Chuan had more to say. Finding the right method was only one of the conditions. If Supernatural Entities were so easy to solve, they would have been solved long ago.
The constant harm to people must be problematic. People who are in contact with this aspect for a long time, don't know what problems will arise, maybe that's why there are so few such experts.
It was because he had a Second Self that he didn't need to worry too much about this.
At this moment, he also discovered that the Mutated Tissue in his body was slowly growing. This was different from the Supernatural Entity seen in the cinema. That was a temporary stimulation to the Mutated Tissue, and once it disappeared, it was gone. But this time, there was a reaction afterward.
Ren Shu then asked curiously, "Mr. Chen, what exactly is that Flying Head?"
Chen Chuan said, "I also want to know the answer, but unfortunately, there isn't one yet. We can only solve the problem after it appears."
He had read the Data that Cheng Zitong gave him. Currently, there was a speculation that, apart from the first Flying Head to be born, the remaining Flying Heads were likely transformed from real human heads.
The appearance of two Flying Heads so close to Yangzhi City was enough to show that there would be more appearing on the periphery. It seemed that Yangzhi City Government Affairs Hall would soon have a big operation.
Ren Shu looked at him and said cautiously, "Commission Chen, I discussed it with my partners. Considering that it might be inconvenient for Mr. Chen to travel for the upcoming commissions, the Company decided to provide you with two cars, one in the city and one for convenient travel to commissions outside the city. What do you think, Mr. Chen?"
Chen Chuan nodded and said, "That's fine." Having a car would make traveling more convenient, which would be beneficial for missions, and it would also be convenient to carry things. Moreover, he wouldn't have to worry about maintenance. That would be good too.
Seeing that he accepted, Ren Shu was very happy and pointed to the driver beside him, saying, "What do you think of Xiao Wei , Mr. Chen? He's our Company's full-time driver ."
Chen Chuan smiled and said, "I have no problem."
Ren Shu said, "Then, Mr. Chen, I'll buy a garage near your school and connect a telephone line. Xiao Wei will always be waiting there. If you need him in the future, you can call him directly. These days, you'll have to trouble you to call the Company's phone first."
Chen Chuan said, "Okay, Mr. Ren, thank you for the Company's cooperation and your care."
He knew that Ren Shu and his group were not short of money. If it were a normal Commission Company, there would be no such consideration. It would be good enough if they didn't deduct from the commission fee. Sometimes, they would even make things difficult in the commission rating.
Ren Shu quickly said, "It's our pleasure."
The vehicle returned smoothly all the way. When they arrived at the police officer's family area, Chen Chuan parted ways with him and returned home.
In the past two days, Nian Fuli had already gone to the bureau, and Yu Wan had also taken her younger cousins to visit relatives. He went to the bathroom to wash up, changed his clothes, and then returned to his room, turning on the radio on the table.
During the New Year, Nian Fuli's apprentice, Xiao Wu, gave him a new radio. Nian Fuli said he wasn't used to the new one, so he gave it to him.
Soon, a rustling sound came from inside. He turned it a few times, tuned it to the news channel, and then took out the Snow Emperor Blade, carefully cleaning it with a cloth.
During the wiping process, he could clearly feel that the Resonance between the Snow Emperor Blade and himself had deepened slightly, which was obviously different from the last time. His gaze couldn't help but move. This showed that not only fighting with humans, but also fighting with Supernatural Entities might also have a certain promoting effect on the knife itself.
But this seemed to make sense. Supernatural Entities could stimulate his own Mutated Tissue, so they would also Influence the knife. It was just unknown whether it would cause damage to the knife, but considering that the knife could repair itself, there should be no problem.
Just then, a news item caught his attention.
"A mass drinking water poisoning incident occurred in Wujia Town in the northern suburbs of Yang Zhi. Hundreds of townspeople have shown symptoms of poisoning. Currently, with the concern of the Government Affairs Hall, the responsible party has been strictly dealt with, and the emotions of the townspeople have been appeased..."
A short news item glossed over the matter. This was roughly the explanation for the Wujia Town incident. However, the Flying Head matter was indeed not easy to discuss publicly, because someone might imitate it.
But the reason for water poisoning...
He thought for a while, and after putting away the Snow Emperor Blade, he put the knife back into its sheath and opened the map of Yangzhi City to take a few glances. There were two main rivers flowing through Yangzhi City, both of which could be regarded as tributaries of the Xuan River, the largest river in Da Shun.
One of them came from the west, passing through the city, and the other came from the southeast, going around the city, passing through a large number of factory areas located in the southeast of the city, and then heading north. Wujia Town happened to be located downstream, which seemed very reasonable, but it seemed too reasonable, as if it was originally the problem.
As he was thinking, he suddenly heard the phone ringing. He got up and went out, picked up the telephone receiver, and Gao Ming's voice came from inside: "Cousin, are you home? Is it convenient to talk on the phone?"
Chen Chuan said, "Little aunt and uncle aren't here, it's just me. Go ahead and say it."
"Okay, cousin, after I came back, I've been reviewing a large number of case files these days and came to a conclusion," Gao Ming's very solemn voice came from the telephone receiver: "If possible, I think you should get the Unlimited Self-Defense Permit as soon as possible, and the sooner the better."
