"Here you can see that the morgue's main door is still locked at this ti... eh, why did it suddenly go black?" The technician furrowed his brow as he watched the screen covering that area suddenly go dark. He responded by reaching for the mouse, intending to do sothing, only to find the screen returned to normal.
It seed like, in those few seconds, the cara couldn't capture anything, as if sothing was blocking it.
When the image returned, the morgue's originally tightly locked door was already wide open. In those brief seconds, no one knew what happened. It was as if the surveillance footage glitched, and then the locked door just opened... This left everyone stunned, their minds unable to process what had just happened.
What happened?
After a short while, they saw a man's shadow hesitantly appear on the screen, walking from the corridor and into the morgue.
Then...
Another brief black screen, then when the image returned, the door was locked again as if nothing had changed... After that, nothing seed out of the ordinary, since everyone knew what happened next.
"..."
"..."
A deathly silence.
Many people realized, their eyes quietly filled with bewildernt and fear. They seed to understand why this happened, why Chen Xinda was so frightened, but they would rather not understand.
"What exactly... happened?" The girl suddenly lost her previous protective stance, looking helplessly at her terrified boyfriend.
"I don't know, I really don't know what I saw. I just followed, and when I ca to my senses, I was already... already locked in that place, surrounded by corpses. I... I..." Chen Xinda's voice trembled, as the feeling of terror struck his heart again.
Other than himself, the surveillance captured nothing. The figure he saw did seem not to exist.
A brief black screen, then the morgue door was opened and locked again... If it were a person, they should have been noticed on the way, and in such a short ti, it was impossible to leave or have sowhere to hide, yet there was nothing.
So indeed, he must have... seen a ghost.
His thoughts echoed those of many around him.
At that mont, it felt like the hospital environnt turned cold and eerie, the air carrying a chill... Actually, it was just the air conditioning, but no one felt that way at the ti.
...
...
As the culprit behind all this, soone was completely unaware of what had transpired.
His actions were swift. After seeing what he wanted, he imdiately left the scene. Using the guardian spirit to cooperate internally and externally to erase traces, he relocked the door and quickly returned the stolen key... Everything was remotely controlled through the guardian spirit's guidance.
After settling these, he nonchalantly left the underground parking lot, leisurely headed ho, and didn't even return to the hospital.
So, naturally, he didn't know that as soon as he left, things started to stir, causing an urban legend to spread in the city hospital.
Back ho, he ate, bathed, then went about his daily routine of morning and evening practice. He began by converting most of his energy into Curse Talisman production, feeling reassured as he saw the number of various talismans in his inventory increase. He then continued studying those Technique Principles, aiming to master the talisman skills he hadn't yet perfected.
Without an experienced master to guide him continuously, to give pointers, learning progress inevitably slowed. Gu Mo was ntally prepared for this and already had a way to cope.
While self-teaching and enhancing his skills, he would open the system for "course review." Though it was not as effective as a real person's teaching, it was at least a solution.
However, many tis, he had to repeatedly drag the progress bar through long recordings to find his last learning point, reviewing again and again, which was sowhat cumberso. Thus, he quickly had the idea to edit the teachings of two masters into different clips based on different topics for easy reference.
After starting, he also thought Hidechika and Minamoto no Yoshiie's daily combat practice was quite impressive. He liked watching girls fight... Ah, no, while he couldn't learn it now, he considered it advanced training material to observe and learn from later.
So, it must be edited too, this too!
Perhaps the system's editing tool was too convenient, causing him to beco absorbed unwittingly, leading him to work until midnight, unable to find more material. He yawned as he looked at the system's interface, showing dozens of edited files, suddenly realizing.
Why are most of them related to Hidechika?
He clearly started with the intention of studying well.
Clicking on one segnt to view his work, Gu Mo lightly exhaled, slightly embarrassed as he scratched his cheek with his index finger. This segnt recorded the scene of him just entering Thirteen Sakura Village, but his editing had slightly altered it...
Hmm, it's sowhat at odds with reality. It can't be called fabrication, but it's at least unrecognizable.
But it should be fine... he thought with slight guilt. Editing is quite a mystical thing. In extre cases, even 'Magica*lyr*cal' could be edited into 'North God Fist'. Compared to that, what he did wasn't so bad.
