5: Chapter 5 Evil Suppression Division

"Leniency for those who confess, severity for those who resist."

In the bright and sparse interrogation room, Lu Siye boredly shifted his gaze away from the eight large characters on the wall behind him.

It had been over ten minutes since he was brought into the interrogation room. During this time, apart from the two Public Security Officers who came in at the beginning to ask for some basic personal information, no one else had entered.

Lu Siye leaned back in his chair, bored, staring straight ahead, looking as if he were in a daze.

In reality, Lu Siye was not in a daze; he was simply looking at the System panel that only he could see.

Host: Lu Siye

Fear Points: 937

Cultivation: None (a weakling)

Cultivation Technique: None

Special Item: evil-exorcising fruit knife

He now had 937 Fear Points. Subtracting the 90 points he had left over, this meant that one Delivery Ghost had provided him with a total of 847 Fear Points.

It was a huge harvest.

However, what exactly were this Cultivation and Cultivation Technique? Could it be that he could also Cultivate those martial arts Secret Manuals from Wuxia novels?

Thinking of this, Lu Siye felt a bit excited. Every man had a Wuxia dream in his childhood of becoming a legendary hero.

Even though he was grown up now, his dream remained unchanged.

In the monitoring room, a man built like an iron tower and a woman wearing an exquisite qipao, showcasing a proud figure, stood in front of the monitor.

What was on the monitor was Lu Siye, who was in a daze in the interrogation room.

"This little brother has a good mindset. Encountering a Ghost for the first time, he not only managed to counter-kill but could also remain so calm." The woman spoke slowly, her moving voice tinged with a hint of allure.

"I am more curious about how he, an ordinary person, could rely on a Magical Artifact to contend with an evil Ghost." The man said in a muffled voice.

"Wouldn't you know if you just went and asked!" The woman extended her slender fingers, sliding them down the man's thick arm.

"Shangguan Qingxue, I'm warning you, don't keep touching me. I only like women stronger than me."

The man reached out his palm to grab the woman's snow-white wrist, gently flung it away, and walked out of the monitoring room without looking back.

"Meng Jianmin, you..." Shangguan Qingxue stamped her feet in anger and hurriedly followed.

Bang!

The sound of the interrogation room door opening caught Lu Siye's attention.

After such a long time, someone had finally come to see him again.

He looked toward the door and saw a man at least 190 centimeters tall, built like an iron tower, walking in sideways.

Behind him followed a tall woman in a qipao, whose every movement exuded charming allure.

The woman passed the man, came to the table, extended her slender fingers to pull out a chair, and sat down with elegant movements.

She then leaned forward, revealing her beautiful and moving curves, while simultaneously placing her two heavy peaks on the table.

A faint scent of her body wafted over. Lu Siye instinctively looked over, and the moment he saw those two peaks, a flash of golden light that no one noticed flickered in the depths of his eyes.

Damn~ So big~

Lu Siye almost got dazzled, but out of politeness, he stared for a moment before looking away.

A flash of imperceptible surprise flickered in Shangguan Qingxue's eyes; as an ordinary person, he could actually remain unaffected by her allure.

She turned her head to look at Meng Jianmin and nodded slightly.

Meng Jianmin understood. He came to stand before Lu Siye, lowered his head to look down at him, and said in a muffled voice: "Look up, look at me."

Lu Siye subconsciously looked up at the man, and the moment he met his eyes.

Lu Siye saw a fierce tiger opening its bloody maw before him, as if the next moment this tiger would pounce over and tear him apart.

His pupils suddenly contracted. In this moment, Lu Siye forgot that he was still in the interrogation room and forgot that there were two mysterious people in front of him; before his eyes, only this giant, colorful tiger remained.

Lu Siye's heartbeat began to accelerate rapidly, his blood pressure rose, and adrenaline secreted wildly. Sensing a life-threatening danger, his body made the most instinctive survival reaction.

He suppressed his instinctive urge to run away and fiercely threw a punch at the tiger's eyes.

There was only one thought in his mind: even if he were to die, he had to make the other party feel some pain.

But to his surprise, his fist passed through like an illusion, hitting nothing.

The tiger before him quickly dissipated, and everything around him returned to the original interrogation room.

"Not bad! Divine Soul strength is excellent, courage is excellent." Shangguan Qingxue spoke, her tone revealing a hint of approval.

She sat up straight, her temperament instantly changing from alluring and charming to dignified and elegant, radiating a sense of approachability.

"What is this?" Lu Siye looked around in confusion. He was still in the interrogation room, so the giant, colorful tiger from before was just an illusion?

His tense muscles immediately relaxed. Lu Siye leaned back in the chair, exhausted, his back already soaked with cold sweat without him realizing it.

"I believe you have already discovered that the Delivery Ghost you killed before was actually not human, but a Ghost."

Meng Jianmin took an evil-exorcising fruit knife from behind him and placed it on the table.

He pulled over a chair and sat down. His superhuman weight caused the chair beneath him to emit a screeching, creaking sound.

It made one wonder if the chair would fall apart in the next second.

"Are you two from the relevant department?" Lu Siye asked tentatively.

"Relevant department?" Shangguan Qingxue smiled, "If it is the relevant department you understand, then we certainly are!"

"Right, let me officially introduce ourselves. I am the captain of the Metal Squad of the Tianhai City Evil Suppression Bureau branch, Meng Jianmin, and this is the captain of the Water Squad, Shangguan Qingxue!" Meng Jianmin said, sitting up straight.

"Is your Evil Suppression Bureau divided using the Five Elements of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth?" Lu Siye asked curiously.

"That's correct!" Meng Jianmin nodded.

"You don't need to worry. The Evil Suppression Bureau handles incidents of Ghost disturbances. Killing a Ghost is not illegal. You just need to tell us everything that happened tonight completely." Shangguan Qingxue looked at Lu Siye with a sweet smile.

Her stunning appearance combined with her soft tone made one subconsciously feel the urge to spill everything.

Lu Siye raised his hand and patted his cheeks, dispelling the urge in his mind to spill everything.

He concealed the fact that he possessed a System, modified some details, and after polishing some of the process, he recounted his encounter tonight.

He claimed that the fruit knife, which he bought from a supermarket for a few dozen yuan, was bought for several thousand yuan after being swindled at an antique street.

He also changed the act of unilaterally bullying the Delivery Ghost into a life-and-death struggle with the Ghost, which he only managed to win narrowly in the end.

After hearing Lu Siye's account, Meng Jianmin touched his chin and said: "There is too much luck involved; it cannot serve as a reference for other members."

Shangguan Qingxue beside him also nodded, agreeing with Meng Jianmin's words.

"Right, what exactly are Ghosts?" Lu Siye asked with a curious expression.

In his previous life, he had never encountered such things as Ghosts, and having grown up under the red flag, he didn't quite believe that such things existed in the world, so he hadn't learned much about them.

"Ghosts, huh! It's too long to explain. Simply put, humans have Three Ethereal Souls and Seven Corporeal Spirits, while Ghosts only have one soul and seven souls. After a person dies, before the three souls dissipate, there is a chance they can turn into a Ghost." Meng Jianmin tapped the table to explain.

"However, because a Ghost's soul is incomplete, it cannot control its own emotions. Slowly, it will be controlled by one or more types of extreme emotions, and thus it turns into various kinds of Ghosts."

"So that's how it is!" Lu Siye nodded.

No wonder the Delivery Ghost could still feel emotions like fear; it turned out that the seven souls, which represented the seven emotions, were still present.
