Odd Containment Specialist

Chapter 68 Reed's Misjudgment

As soon as Reed sensed the danger, he took Delin and fled in the direction of the Control Bureau. They ran around like rats in the streets of the city, but the danger lurking in the dark was like a tarsal maggot. , entrenched around them, constantly changing directions, lingering.

If you are an ordinary person, when you encounter a murderer or a stalker, you will definitely run away to a crowded place as much as possible, but the employees of the Control Bureau cannot do that. They must ensure that ordinary people are not implicated. This is the responsibility of the Control Bureau. The most basic qualities that every person must possess.

Reed and Delin ducked into the sparsely populated alleys, constantly taking shortcuts, and called the night watch team at this time. But just as the call was dialed, in the shadows of the narrow alleys, dim street lights Below, a figure without an umbrella stood quietly there.

The rain fell from the sky and scattered into crystal raindrops under the street lights. The light outlined the outline of the other party's body. There seemed to be an invisible barrier around him, and even the thin raindrops could not drift into his body.

Reed knew very well what he saw at that time, a layer of gray-black smoke shrouding the opponent. That was the visual effect of his superpower, [Fear Perception].

According to Locar's law of material exchange, any contact must leave traces.

In the extraordinary world, the coverage of this law has become wider. Every thought will leave traces.

Once a person's thoughts are born, even if they do nothing in reality, they will leave traces somewhere that you cannot detect.

The same goes for Reed's fear perception. He can see how many people a person has been feared by.

A son is afraid of his father, a wife is afraid of her husband, and the bullied is afraid of the bully. In Reed's eyes, these fears are all a very light white-grey color. Under normal circumstances, he will subconsciously block out these irrelevant fears.

Only the fear brought by death will be captured subconsciously by him. People's fear of death is always the strongest.

And the color of that fear—is black.

What he saw at that time was this color, black granular mist floating around the opponent, and the density was much exaggerated than he imagined. Even the third-level finisher he had seen had never had such dense black mist.

At that moment, Reid was sure that even if the opponent's strength was not as good as that of the third-level Terminator, the number of killings and the means of committing evil were definitely far superior to that of the Terminator.

"Good evening, both operators!"

The voice was old but had a pleasant upsurge, and then the other party came closer, swaying closer.

The last thing Reed remembered was the innocent smile on the old man's face, like a child.

Then he fainted, and when he woke up his good partner had been torn into pieces. He would never forget that scene.

"call--"

Reed exhaled heavily, dropped the cigarette under his feet, crushed it, then picked it up and put it in his pocket.

Judging by the time, the two foreign commissioners should be arriving soon.

The moment he stood up, he suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis again, which was very similar to what he felt when he walked out of the coffee shop that night.

Is Anyang Xiongwu nearby?

Reed subconsciously held the pistol on his belt, although he knew it would most likely be useless.

The next second, the source of fear was determined. Reed turned around suddenly. Before he could react, the gun had been pulled out and pointed straight at the opponent!

"Ahhhhhh!!"

When passers-by saw Reed with his gun drawn, he screamed and immediately ran away.

At the top of the steps where the gun was pointing, a white-haired man wearing a black mask and a tired-looking black-haired boy stood there quietly.

The black-haired boy looked confused, while the white-haired man looked calm.

Reed rubbed his hands awkwardly, put down his empty hands, leaned down, and raised the handover sign at his feet - "Lewis Tour Group".

And a blade that was close to the main artery of Reed's neck was slowly withdrawn into its sheath. The pistol that was taken away at an unknown time was also returned to the other party's waist by Su Weiyu, and she patted it conveniently.

"Mr. Reed, right? Are you okay?" Bai He walked up to Reed and patted his shoulder comfortingly, "I heard about your partner. I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry, I've been a little moody lately..."

Reed, who didn't know what to say, shrugged helplessly and opened the back door for the two of them.

He took a special look at the two of them. He knew where the sense of crisis came from. It was this young man with white hair.

There was also a very thick black mist on his body, but the black mist did not spread. There was only a very, very thin layer that followed the outline of his figure.

The degree of spread of the black mist represents the duration of fear.

Different shapes represent different conclusions.

The black mist like An Gang Xiongwu means that he killed many people and gave those people great fear and long torture.

The black mist on the body of this white-haired young man means that although he killed many people, the fear of him only lasted for a moment.

There's no doubt about it...he's strong.

Reed shifted his gaze and looked at the other person. That person was clean, without even a hint of black mist.

This made Reed a little confused.

What's going on? Haven't you even killed anyone?

It seems that this gentleman is a person who specializes in weird events. His [Fear Perception] can only read human fear emotions, and other fear emotions cannot be observed.

Just as Xia Shou was about to get on the bus, Reed saw something black flashing at the bottom of his vision.

At that moment, a kind of extreme fear and sense of death that he had never experienced in his life hit Reed like a gunshot. He made a scream that he had never heard or made before. When he thought about it afterwards, he felt incredible. It was simply not a sound that a human could make.

But at this moment, he did scream.

His body seemed to be controlled by a higher will, and he could not help but dodge.

The center of gravity lost balance and the whole person fell heavily to the ground. However, before the body fell to the ground, Reed still couldn't take his eyes away from the other person's feet.

What kind of fog is that! It's so thick!

It's just like a piece of black cloth that doesn't reflect any light!

How much fear... how many people have been slaughtered... how long have those people been tortured to have such a terrifying fog of fear! ! !

"Don't come over!" Reed shouted hoarsely, and the passers-by around were frightened and stopped at a safe distance to watch.

"Brother Bai, Brother Bai is in trouble! What's wrong with him!"

The frightened Xia Shou immediately pulled Bai He who was sitting in the car, thinking to himself that the person who came to pick them up would not be a mental patient.

And Reed fell to the ground, panting, staring at the "black fog" that had just made him lose his composure.

See... wrong?

Not black fog, just a shadow?

"Mr. Reed, are you okay?" Bai He frowned, leaned on the car door, and looked at this foreign colleague worriedly.

"No, it's okay, I may... just... too nervous." Reed laughed dryly a few times, trying to cover up his panic.

His hands and feet were soft and weak, and even a little sore, as if the momentary dodge just now had drained all the glycogen in his muscles.

"It's okay, you get in the car, I can do it myself." Reed cursed his incompetence in his heart.

Damn it! How could I misjudge a shadow as a fog of fear? It seems I need to go to the psychology department for adjustment.

Reed climbed up the car body with difficulty and took a last glance at the shadow under Xia Shou's feet with the corner of his eyes.

It was not dark at all, just an ordinary gray shadow, nothing unusual.

"Mr. Reed, let me drive. Now anyone can drive with a navigation system." Bai He patted Reed's shoulder and pushed him to the back seat.

"No, no, no, you are guests, how can you do this."

"No, let me do it, that... cough!" Bai He glanced at Reed's pants and coughed softly.

Reed was stunned and looked down. Only then did he realize that he had lost control of his bladder in the shock just now.
