Odd Containment Specialist

[Introduction: When you are in a difficult situation, it will mark the way to death for you, and while retaining your last dignity, it will also provide you with a glimmer of hope. ]

[Effect: Within three hours, all dangerous roads will be marked for you, and you will get a chance to rewind after death. After death, the time will be rewound to one hour ago, and the earliest rewind will be to the time when the skill was used. ]

[Price: You can only choose the most dangerous road to move forward, and move forward at least 100 meters, and you cannot turn back.

When the danger level of the location reaches the lethal level, you do not need to continue moving forward. The price is changed to stay within the skill circle for ten minutes.

This power needs 24 hours to cool down. ]

As the red words dissipated, the ruler appeared in Xia Shou's left eye again, and the number on it rose back to 1,100 meters, but it was still increasing slowly at an extremely slow speed.

"Damn it! Still sinking!"

Xia Shou picked up the mirror and looked behind him. Alice reflected in the mirror closed her eyes, her eyebrows twisted together in pain, and a streak of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, as if she had just endured great pain.

Suddenly, Xia Shou understood that Alice was saving him just now!

The note said [Cannot open the door by yourself], but it did not say that Alice could not open the door.

Thinking carefully, if he had not floated up just now, he would probably have died.

And the reason why he was able to float up was probably because Black Swamp swallowed the red wax man!

Xia Shou immediately took out the note and flipped through it, and new content appeared on it!

[…You are sinking, I conclude that you don’t want to know what is under there.

If you want to survive, swallow those weird things, that is your only way to get "buoyancy". 】

Swallow the weird...

It’s easy to say, but where can I find it?

What Alice opened just now was just a small and broken wooden door, and it was almost broken. Don’t think about opening other doors.

If you want to swallow the weird, you must think of other ways.

Xia Shou continued to flip through the notes, and a map guide slowly emerged on the next page, with a paragraph attached:

[If you rely on yourself, you will probably sink to the bottom before you find the first weirdness.

Go join the Abnormal Control Bureau, which can greatly increase your chances of contacting weirdness.

But if you join the control bureau, remember to avoid a woman named "Shangguan Yan". Although that guy's strength is unquestionable, she is really annoying.

In addition, don't tell the people in the control bureau about the existence of "Black Swamp". 】

[Before going out, remember to take the pocket watch and recommendation letter in the drawer of the study. In front of the door of the entrance hall, meditate on [Jiangbo City], and you can leave... If you want to return, Alice will help you when she is awake. 】

After reading this information, Xia Shou found that all the handwriting in the notes became a little blurred.

"It seems that I can't continue to use this guide for the time being."

Xia Shou prepared according to the instructions in the notes and returned to the entrance hall.

He stretched out his hand, but his fingers stopped at the moment they were about to touch the door handle.

"Alice, help me open the door."

The notes said that he couldn't open the closed doors in the house by himself, perhaps including this entrance door.

The chill on one side of his neck disappeared, and a pale and slender arm passed over Xia Shou's shoulder, grasped the door handle, turned it gently and pushed it, and the hustle and bustle outside the door came in his face.

Xia Shou walked onto the street, and the modern city exactly the same as in his memory appeared in front of him.

The door behind him closed automatically, and no one on the street looked at him, as if Alice behind him didn't exist at all.

"It seems that ordinary people in this world can't directly recognize abnormal things."

Xia Shou looked down at the coordinates on the map, which was a local museum.

"Let's go, let's go to the location on the map first."

Xia Shou said to Alice, as if Alice was a taciturn friend.

...

Xia Shou stood in front of the museum's gate, looking at the five holographic projection-like illusory words flashing in front of him-Abnormal Control Bureau.

Looking around, among the tourists coming in and out, Xia Shou found a weirdo like him.

A three-meter-tall strong man passed by him, and together with the skeleton missionary carrying a cross, they walked through the crowd and entered the museum without anyone noticing, as if they were transparent in the eyes of ordinary people.

This museum should be the disguised base of the Control Bureau in the secular society.

Although the notes suggested that he join, Xia Shou felt that he still needed to think carefully.

The current situation is that if he cannot get buoyancy, he will sink below the red line, and the ending is likely to be death.

And to get buoyancy, he must swallow the weird.

But this world looks peaceful and stable on the surface, and there are no special warning signs on the streets. It is obviously not the kind of place where you can encounter three supernatural events in a circle on the street.

If he wants to find weirdness alone, it is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.

In addition to the danger and unknown nature of weirdness, with his current skills, he may not be able to deal with it.

Xia Shou recalled the depth of the ruler he saw last time, and the speed of slow sinking, and silently calculated it in his mind.

If he continues to sink at that speed, his depth will exceed the 1,300-meter red line again in two days at most!

"It seems there is no choice." Xia Shou sighed helplessly.

It is impossible to find the weirdness in two days by himself.

"Hey, you are not an employee of the Control Bureau, right?"

Suddenly, a voice came from behind. Xia Shou turned around. A red-haired woman in a black suit stood behind him with her hands in her pockets, looking at him with a subtle look.

The other party had a pair of long legs comparable to a supermodel. She was wearing a men's suit, with the hem of the white lining tucked into the waistband, outlining her slender waist and proud chest. She had a smile unique to those in power on her face. Every move exuded calmness and elegance, but also a subtle mysterious temperament.

She moved her eyes upward and stayed in the air behind Xia Shou for a while. Obviously, she could see Alice's existence.

Since the other party could see Alice, she should be from the Control Bureau. Judging from her dress, she was still an administrative staff.

When Xia Shou was thinking about how to speak, the other party took the lead and asked: "Are you here to join the Control Bureau?"

Xia Shou was surprised.

The other party saw at a glance that he was here to join the Control Bureau. Could this also be an arrangement made in advance by the notes?

"How do you know?" Xia Shou asked cautiously.

"Besides the museum visitors, only the staff and interviewees, as well as prisoners and suspects, come here.

Since no one greeted you and I haven't seen you before, you are probably here for an interview. This is not difficult to guess." The woman said calmly.

She sniffed lightly, as if she smelled something special, and her eyes narrowed like a cat: "There seems to be something special in your pocket."

Xia Shou frowned slightly. He had the pocket watch in his pocket. The note said that he should bring the pocket watch and recommendation letter when he came to the control bureau.

"Well, I want to see the person in charge of personnel here. I have a letter..."

"Oh~ I understand... OK, you come with me to complete the entry procedures." The other party said readily.

"Huh? You are the person in charge of personnel?" Xia Shou said in surprise.

"I guess I can be considered the person who can make the final decision." The woman smiled.

"Really? But don't you need to go through some kind of assessment to join the Control Bureau?"

"In our line of work, technical ability is not as good as the compatibility with anomalies.

I can smell that you are very suitable for this line of work... Come with me."

She smiled meaningfully, waved to Xia Shou, and turned to walk into the museum.
