Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 566
[Chapter 563 Maple Forest Building]
Buying peach wood instead of peach wood swords is to make it easier to make batons.
The police are familiar with using batons, but using peach wood swords… I’m afraid few of them can play well.
As for the talisman, Superintendent Hu didn’t know if his men could use it. He bought this batch of yellow paper, cinnabar, etc., so that he could use it for Zhang Tianshi, Zhong Daochang and other consultants when necessary.
Everyone can bring a bottle of dog blood and chicken blood, and it is convenient to carry it with them in a sprayer. That’s what the exorcist from the Ma family did.
In addition, if you want to exorcise demons and catch ghosts, it is very important to be able to see ghosts. Those
who have practiced magic and have Taoism can also open their eyes to see those hidden demons and monsters. My men are all ordinary people. If I want to solve this problem, I can only rely on equipment. It
was still the Ma family who helped solve this problem. The glasses she used had this function.
But the glasses were specially made. If the police wanted them, they needed to be specially made, and they would arrive after a while.
“We have only barely put together a framework. You know, my subordinates are all policemen. Although they have received various trainings in the police academy, they really do not include exorcism, catching ghosts, fighting zombies, etc., so…”
“Want to buy a batch of modern weapons from me that are specifically used to deal with demons and monsters?”
“Not necessarily weapons, bullets that can exorcise demons are also fine.”
David nodded to show that he understood. With bullets, at least the police’s guns can play their due role. Otherwise, if they really encounter supernatural events, their subordinates will be sent out to die. Even if Superintendent Hu is not dismissed, he will not have the face to continue working.
“I have a question.”
“You tell me.”
“If I get a batch of weapons with exorcism capabilities, does it count as smuggling arms?”
“Ah, this…” Superintendent Hu was stunned. He really didn’t think about it in this way. After careful thinking and serious research, he finally said with a wrinkled face: “Count.”
David spread his hands. He didn’t want to get himself into trouble, so selling weapons directly would definitely not work.
“Then, can you please consecrate the guns or bullets they use, add some blessings or something?”
Inspector Hu did not mention holy water or anything like that. In his opinion, this is one of the items that will definitely be purchased, and it can also be put into the sprayer for use.
“How about this, I’ll get a batch of amulets, and then make you a box that can nourish the holy power.”
“Box? What’s the use?”
“Usually store the bullets in the box, and the bullets stored inside will be contaminated with some holy power, which should be enough to deal with ordinary ghosts.”
“Oh, this is a great idea.” Inspector Hu was very happy after listening to David’s introduction. This thing can be of great help. In this way, not only pistols can be used, but even spray guns, grenades, etc. can be used?
“Let me make it clear first. This thing is not a one-time thing. The sacred power in the box is limited. Once it is used up, it will become an ordinary box.”
“That’s not a problem.” This is just like buying bullets. It’s a consumable item. Inspector Hu doesn’t care at all. Anyway, he doesn’t have to pay for it: “But, how big is the box?” “
How big does Inspector Hu want it?”
Inspector Hu looked at David, then looked at the side and pointed to the storage cabinet: “Is there one this big?”
“Yes.”
“How long can it last?”
“That depends on the price range you buy.”
Inspector Hu is a smart man. He immediately understood that this thing was probably processed by David himself. What kind of one he wants depends on how much money he can pay.
“What if I want a filing cabinet or bookshelf as big as it is?”
“That’s fine!” David didn’t beat around the bush and directly made a price: “One million Hong Kong dollars, which can guarantee that the ammunition stored in it is endowed with sufficient sacred power.”
But it can only hold one cabinet. When the ammunition in this cabinet is used up, either buy a new cabinet or ask David to help recharge it.
“Sure!” Superintendent Hu was very satisfied. Such a large cabinet could store quite a lot of ammunition. Even if his department consumed ammunition faster than ordinary departments, it would last for a long time.
One million sounds like a lot, but it is nothing for the wealthy Police Department!
As for the amulets, ten thousand each.
This time, they were not the powerful amulets that Feiying bought. What David sold to Superintendent Hu were ordinary amulets that could protect the police officers from being attacked, possessed, or controlled by evil spirits.
“Ten amulets first… no, twenty or thirty!” Superintendent Hu considered taking a few amulets back for his family to prevent demons and ghosts from threatening him through his family. Protecting his family is protecting himself, which makes sense!
“A few more bottles of holy water…”
“I’ll make it an even number for you, twenty bottles.”
After concluding a deal neatly, David and Superintendent Hu were very satisfied.
“By the way, does Mr. Glamorgan have any tricks or techniques that he can teach my men?”
In addition to helping buy a batch of equipment, Zhang Lihua Zhang Tianshi also promised to teach some basic common sense when he is free to ensure that when Superintendent Hu’s men encounter various ghosts, they will not be at a loss as to what to do?
There are also some ways to use magic tools. When necessary, you can use them without using magic power, relying purely on your own spirit and energy to force them, which may save your life at a critical moment.
Taoist Master Zhong also promised to teach some skills from time to time, and also promised to teach some small methods that do not require magic power and can be used by ordinary people.
For example, chanting spells, setting up formations, borrowing strength, etc.
It feels like I have taken advantage of those masters, and I can’t miss out on Mr. Glamorgan.
“I’m afraid I’ll disappoint Superintendent Hu. The way I deal with demons and ghosts is very simple and crude.”
“Oh?”
“If one shot doesn’t kill it, shoot ten shots, and if that doesn’t work, switch to rockets.”
“…”
Superintendent Hu didn’t know how to evaluate David’s exorcism method. As for shooting and using rockets, he just pretended not to hear.
After chatting for a few more words, the two walked out of Superintendent Hu’s own office.
In the big office, Zhou Xingxing finally recovered from his stiff state, and got a good understanding of the work he was about to face from his new colleague.
At the same time, he also understood why his colleagues were not surprised, because except for himself, these colleagues had encountered supernatural events.
The police station where Inspector He Fanni and Wu Ying worked had a ghost king.
When Moon En returned to his hometown, he encountered zombies. Karen accompanied her friends home and was fortunate to see the existence of zombies.
In addition, David was present when these people encountered these things. Zhou Xingxing didn’t know that David was actually a very powerful exorcist, so he became the consultant of this new department.
“What a mess!”
Although everyone said something exaggerated and realistic, Zhou Xingxing still thought that these guys were playing tricks on him.
“Chief Zhou, since you have joined this department, you will see it sooner or later. Do you want to take a talisman back first? Carry it with you just in case?”
“…”
“How about this, Chief Zhou, since our department hasn’t officially started work yet, let’s take advantage of this time to find a place with a lot of yin energy and easy to be haunted to camp, so that Chief Zhou can get familiar with the future working environment first?”
Wu Ying had just finished speaking when he was immediately disliked by others.
In addition, Superintendent Hu also came out. After hearing this, he immediately shouted angrily: “Nonsense! We are a department that solves supernatural incidents, not creates them. You want to create some trouble when there is nothing?”
“Sir, I just want Commander Zhou to adapt to the new job as soon as possible!”
As he was speaking, the phone rang suddenly. Everyone present was stunned and their eyes all fell on Superintendent Hu.
Superintendent Hu looked back and saw that it was the phone in his office that rang. This was the first time this phone rang after their department moved in.
“…”
Superintendent Hu straightened his clothes, then walked back to the office with a serious face and answered the phone: “This is the Special Affairs Investigation Section! Yes, it’s me! Okay, Director! Got it, Director!”
The phone was hung up. Although no one heard what was said on the phone, everyone understood what happened: work is here!
Superintendent Hu came out and looked at everyone: “I believe you have guessed it. That’s right, our Special Affairs Investigation Division has its first case. This time, everyone will be mobilized to try to make a good start for our Special Affairs Investigation Division.”
Then he looked at Zhou Xingxing: “Although you are still on vacation, I also hope that you can participate in this operation and adapt to the new work environment as soon as possible. This will be very helpful for your future work.”
Zhou Xingxing raised his hand to refuse, but Superintendent Hu did not give him a chance to speak and continued: “The place we are going to investigate this time is called Fenglin Building. It is an old apartment building. Because it is haunted, almost all the residents in the building have moved out, which has caused a very bad impact on the surrounding blocks.”
“Our superiors ordered us to find out as soon as possible whether Maple Forest Building is really haunted or someone is playing tricks and making up rumors.”
If someone is causing trouble, then they must arrest the person causing trouble and hand him over to brothers in other departments for follow-up handling;
if it is really haunted, then they must find a way to clear all the ghosts and then announce to the public that there is no haunting here. The so-called haunting is a rumor deliberately spread by someone in order to maliciously lower the house price…
As for the investigation method, everyone pretends to be a new resident and moves into Maple Forest Building.
“In other words… it’s to be an undercover agent?”
Zhou Xingxing keenly noticed the key words.
“Almost! Later, He Fanni will take people to bring back all the relevant information about Maple Forest Building. After everyone is ready, the official operation will begin tomorrow.”
After the explanation, Superintendent Hu has not forgotten David: “Mr. Glamorgan, do you want to go to that building together?”
David looked at Cheng Le’er next to him: “Do you want to join in the fun?”
In the past, Cheng Le’er would definitely hide far away. Now that she knows David’s strength and is no longer worried about danger, she feels that this kind of excitement is also quite interesting.
