Gatekeeper Of All Realms Chapter 15
byThe Commander’s Office.
Luo Feichuan pointed at the person in the photo, listening to the commotion outside while continuing to speak to Shen Ye:
“According to the forensics expert’s opinion, they believe this person seems to be trying to activate something.”
“Shen Ye, did you carry anything unusual that day?”
Activate something…
Shen Ye’s heart skipped a beat.
Curse Statue of the King of Ten Thousand Fallen Evil Spirits!
It is said that this statue ended millions of lives. If it was indeed that tall, thin man who activated the statue, then Luo Feichuan had already found the murderer!
Shen Ye looked at the unfamiliar face in the photo, trying to search his memory, but ultimately found nothing.
The cursed statue was gone, turned to dust.
The lead was broken.
Unless Commander Luo could find that person.
Before that, he absolutely could not reveal anything about the statue, otherwise it would only bring trouble upon himself.
—Throughout the long river of history, millions of people died from the statue’s curse.
Why did you alone survive?
What makes you different?
“Report, Commander, I was the same as usual, no different.”
Shen Ye said.
“And no feelings of suffocation, loss of control, or loss of consciousness?”
“No.”
“Strange…”
Luo Feichuan pondered, not knowing what he was thinking.
Shen Ye felt a little nervous.
An inexplicable nervousness.
Ever since he entered this office, he seemed to be a little off.
—It was as if there was something awkward in his heart.
Strange.
Too strange.
It felt like something was hidden all around, and all it needed was a call from him—
Something unprecedented would happen.
Across the desk, the expression on Luo Feichuan’s face began to change.
Shen Ye suddenly spoke: “I remember!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Luo Feichuan’s arm, which had just been raised, lowered again.
“What did you remember?” Luo Feichuan asked.
—What was he trying to do when he raised his hand just now?
Why did it look a little like he was about to strike?
Shen Ye suppressed the various anxieties in his heart, and said calmly:
“I did bring a bouquet of flowers to give to a friend, and my backpack seemed to be open—”
“I clearly remember closing my backpack when school ended.”
Luo Feichuan listened quietly, frowning.
These were all very normal things, but—
“Did you check your backpack?” he asked.
Shen Ye’s heart sank.
He didn’t know why, but he felt that Luo Feichuan seemed to know something.
—Then he definitely couldn’t say anything proactively.
“No, I really should have checked my backpack.” Shen Ye sighed.
Luo Feichuan lowered his head, seemingly thinking about something.
Shen Ye’s heart was uneasy.
The last time they met, the Commander did not have this expression and demeanor.
Was there something on his mind?
Or did he suspect me of doing something bad?
No, I must be careful.
Shen Ye put his attribute points directly into Agility.
If anything went wrong, he had to run immediately.
Although he might not be able to escape.
No.
The other party was a genuine Commander, and his attributes in all aspects completely crushed him.
He definitely couldn’t escape.
To save his life… he couldn’t care about too much…
Shen Ye lightly lifted one foot.
This was so he could open a door in the ground at any time.
If there was any problem, he would stomp his foot, kick open the door, and fall in.
Maybe he could escape?
Ring-a-ling—
The office phone on the desk suddenly rang.
The ringing broke the nearly stagnant atmosphere, and startled the people on both sides of the desk.
“Commander, your call, do I need to step out?” Shen Ye asked.
“No need—hello?”
Luo Feichuan picked up the phone, but his eyes were fixed on Shen Ye.
Shen Ye could only sit there.
“Luo Feichuan, you are about to die.” A low voice came from the phone.
Luo Feichuan raised an eyebrow.
Shen Ye was also surprised.
What was going on?
“Who is this?” Luo Feichuan said.
“You should know my identity.” The other side said.
Luo Feichuan was silent for a few seconds, then said, “Whatever it is, let’s talk about it later. I promise to give you an explanation, but I’m busy right now.”
“Explanation? You’re about to die, that’s the explanation I want.” The other side continued.
Luo Feichuan straightened his back and pressed a button on the desk.
The office door silently opened, and several police officers, their expressions serious again, entered one after another, immediately opening their laptops and quickly typing out lines of commands.
A satellite map quickly appeared on the laptop screen.
A red arrow appeared on the map, quickly passing through towering buildings, crisscrossing roads, and countless crowds, jumping wildly through rapidly flashing scenes.
—It seemed to be tracing the origin of the call.
The police officers waited breathlessly.
Shen Ye looked at them, then at Luo Feichuan.
Commander Luo tapped his fingers lightly on the table, seemingly impatient.
At this moment, the voice on the phone rang again, with a leisurely, self-satisfied tone:
“The public resume is just a skin you wear; in reality—”
All scenes on the computer screen disappeared, leaving only the last one.
In this last scene, the red arrow pointed to a man in colorful pajamas.
—Not the tall, thin man wearing shallow brown sunglasses.
Shen Ye couldn’t help but sigh.
Commander Luo was helping me investigate the murderer, but now it seems that Commander Luo himself has encountered some trouble.
Also, Commander Luo seemed very strange.
This office also felt very peculiar to him.
Shen Ye only felt that he was enveloped in a fog, not only knowing nothing, but also potentially in danger at any time.
On the screen, the man in pajamas leaned against a street lamp, talking on the phone and smoking a cigarette.
Behind him was a row of shops selling various goods, and across the road he was facing, there was a familiar building.
Shen Ye’s eyes suddenly widened.
Police station!
—At this moment, this person was standing on the street opposite the police station!
How dare he provoke a Commander at the entrance of a police station!
An invisible wave was born from the void, sweeping over the bodies of several people like a gust of wind, finally locking onto Luo Feichuan.
What was this?
Could this be the spell that Manager Qian mentioned?
As Shen Ye was wondering, he saw Luo Feichuan slap the table and roar:
“Damn it!”
Luo Feichuan jumped up from his chair, like a giant eagle spreading its wings, instantly covering dozens of meters and crashing through the glass to rush out with a “wham.”
At this point, the voice in the receiver had just finished speaking:
“You slaughtered many members of our church. I am now seeking revenge for them.”
Bang.
Gunshots rang out outside.
The policemen in the room followed, rushing out.
Shen Ye slowly stood up and listened intently.
These gunshots were wrong.
The gunshots were very clear, carrying far, far away, even creating a slow and lingering echo.
There was actually an echo.
In this city that was like a steel jungle, how could gunshots have such an echo?
The lights in the room suddenly turned blood-red.
A piercing electronic alarm blared, echoing throughout the entire police station.
A female voice came through the loudspeaker:
“Alert!”
“Attacker detected.”
“The attacker has infiltrated the police station. Non-combat personnel, please find a safe place to hide.”
Shen Ye slowly walked to the window and looked out.
Outside was the sea.
The bustling and lively city had disappeared, replaced by a vast and boundless ocean.
The seawater was black, like an abyss, bottomless.
At this moment, cold rain was falling on the sea, mixed with strong winds, directly hitting Shen Ye.
It was the ocean!
Shen Ye looked out at the distant horizon, and many news reports from his memory surfaced in his mind.
—In this world, some things or people always vanished suddenly.
Half a year ago.
An island nation in the Western Ocean encountered an anomaly, and the entire island disappeared, and has not returned to this day.
This was an extreme example.
There were other situations, such as a car passing through a fog; the car returned intact, but the people were gone.
—News reports often carried such stories.
Shen Ye looked at the sea in a daze.
For ordinary people, the best way to get information was through news reports.
But.
Just by looking at the news, one could not ascertain the truth of the world.
Shen Ye stood before the shattered window, his gaze sweeping downwards.
This was an island.
Apart from the police station, on the other side were seven or eight crooked gravestones standing before graves, forming a miniature graveyard.
This island was only so large, capable of accommodating only a police station and a graveyard.
Outside was the boundless, dark sea.
The piercing alarm ceased abruptly.
Luo Feichuan stood on the beach, holstered his pistol, and casually drew a black dagger.
Opposite him, the man in the colorful pajamas also slowly drew a long staff.
The two confronted each other.
The next moment.
Several police officers rushed out of the door, shouting at Luo Feichuan:
“Boss—”
Before the words were finished, Luo Feichuan and the man in pajamas, as well as the island and the vast sea, all vanished into thin air.
The city reappeared before everyone’s eyes.
—They were back!
Everyone, including the police station, except for Luo Feichuan, had returned to the main world!
Inside the police station.
Piercing alarms blared everywhere.
People were in a total mess.
Upstairs, Commander’s office.
Shen Ye withdrew his gaze, falling into deep thought.
He had thought the police station was the safest place, but who knew there would be a madman going head-to-head with the Commander.
Church…
He didn’t know which church it was. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net
Suddenly.
That strange feeling surged in Shen Ye’s heart again.
The entire police station was out of power.
The emergency lighting was too dim; the room remained murky.
He stood by the window, his expression growing more perplexed.
There was something—
Something in his heart, vague and indistinct, that he just couldn’t recall, no matter how hard he tried.
This feeling was very uncomfortable.
—What exactly was it?
Shen Ye was a little frustrated, and couldn’t help but murmur to himself:
“What’s wrong with me? Is there a ghost in this office?”
As soon as he finished speaking, lines of glowing tiny characters condensed on his retina.
“Your undead talent ability: Shadow Whisper has been activated.”
“After you ask your question, with the corpse in this place as proof, that soul must return to its body to answer your question.”
“If he doesn’t answer, he will never find peace.”
With the corpse as proof…
Shen Ye suddenly reacted, an incredulous expression on his face.
Here.
Luo Feichuan’s office.
—There was a corpse?
Suddenly, a voice rang out:
“Thank you, Shen Ye.”
“Who?” Shen Ye suddenly turned around, looking at the dark room.
“I didn’t expect to be able to return to my body, utilizing the uncorrupted flesh to answer your question.”
This voice felt so familiar—
Shen Ye immediately got goosebumps, and a chill ran down his spine to the top of his head.
“Commander Luo, is that you?”
Shen Ye asked tentatively.
His gaze lightly fell on the large office cabinet in the corner.
