Chapter 297: 295, Mark it
Over a hundred Evil Spirits could form a company according to military organization.
Du Wei really wanted to mark all the Evil Spirits in the entire school, but he was a bit hesitant to do so.
A hunter’s abilities don’t have so-called advancements; they are what they are.
Marking one Evil Spirit and marking a hundred present just a numeric difference.
Once you use the ability, all the Evil Spirits come out, regardless of the order.
Too many marks, and it becomes a ticking time bomb.
“Unless I go to Massas City again one day, I probably won’t need to balance hundreds of Evil Spirits; it’s too easy to lose control.”
Du Wei felt some regret. He still had unresolved curse issues and having more methods prepared would certainly be good.
At that moment,
in the distant torrential rain, suddenly two lights appeared.
An old-fashioned bus slowly approached.@@@@
As it passed through the curtain of rain, it emitted a chilling aura...
It was different from before.
Soon, the bus stopped at the school’s entrance platform.
The front door opened.
Du Wei glanced inside the bus; the driver’s seat was empty, and there were no Evil Spirit passengers or innocent bystanders in the back.
Although the school didn’t exist in reality, the bus ignored this rule; as long as it was raining, this place was just a stop for picking up and dropping off passengers for it.
Initially, Du Wei prepared two exit strategies for himself, and hitching a ride on the bus was one of them.
The other was the crack he saw earlier in the real door at the back of the passage.
He could never forget its location, so he could enter the passage, make a wish with the Joker Card to make the punching bag in the basement disappear, and then push the door to leave.
He wasn’t an Evil Spirit or something from the school, so as long as the door wasn’t truly opened, there was no possibility of him taking Evil Spirits out with him.
After getting into the bus,
there was the sound of the door closing with a creak.
Then, looking at the dim overhead light, Du Wei habitually glanced at the changes inside the bus; the second time he got on the bus, he had made quite a mess and even set the Scarecrow on fire.
But now, all those traces had disappeared.
Du Wei habitually sat in the driver’s seat, watching the time while thinking about the markings.
This bus was meant for Evil Spirits, not humans.
Humans could get on, but without enough power, getting off was basically death.
On the phone, Du Wei said in an extremely cold tone, “I am currently at the junction of Esselgreen and Yard City, that is, the farm we talked about earlier. You all can pull out now. Remember to call a truck to transport my car back to New York.”
Harry nodded earnestly, “Yes, Your Honor.”
...
Elsewhere.
After hanging up the phone, Du Wei looked out over the vast wheat fields around him, his gaze lingering on a large patch that had been burnt.
The last time he was here, his memories synchronized with the Evil Spirit, and he eliminated Mary Shaw, resulting in a large area of the surrounding wheat fields turning to ashes.
In the torrential rain, the ground formed a small stream. The ashes mixed with the rainwater, presenting a startling sight.
The ground was slightly muddy.
The current time was 11:09 PM.
He had taken the bus, traveling only one stop, to arrive at this forsaken place.
Yet there had been a time skip phenomenon.
Du Wei, holding a new Black Umbrella, pondered for a moment before taking out his phone again to call Tom.
He needed someone to pick him up, and just the day before yesterday, Tom had said he was going to be on duty in Yard City.
The call was quickly connected.
Tom’s somewhat hurried breathing was followed by a surprised tone, “Hey, my good brother, why did you suddenly think to call me so late?”
“I’m actually in Yard City now. Don’t tell me you’re dealing with an Evil Spirit incident in New York again, lots of people died, and I need to handle it; I’m very busy right now...”
As Du Wei listened to the rapid breathing on the other end of the line, he frowned and said coldly, “Your voice doesn’t sound quite right. Are you in the Red Light District of Yard City?”
Tom, annoyed, retorted, “Why would you think that? Do I come across as someone who’s linked to the Red Light District? I’m on duty right now, so what’s up?”
Du Wei replied coldly, “I am currently at the junction of Yard City and Esselgreen. I need you to pick me up.”
Tom was stunned, “Fuck! Where’s your car? And your tone is off too. Are you in some kind of trouble?”
Du Wei, frowning, inquired, “Is it off?”
Tom responded, “You sound very distant, just like how I feel about women every time I come out of the Red Light District, completely uninterested.”
Du Wei touched his face, his eyes exceptionally cold...
“I see. Indeed, I have encountered some things. I am sorry for making you worry, my friend.”
This time, his tone regained its usual calmness.
Tom said resignedly, “Fine, I’ll come to pick you up. Given the time, do you want me to take you out for a night of fun?”
