Upon hearing the Liaison's words, Fu Youhua hesitated for a moment. Instead of personally examining the picture, he summoned a Ghost Tamer to check it.
The summoned Ghost Tamer was Yuan Hongfei.
Yuan Hongfei's expression was a little off. He suspected that Fu Youhua was deliberately retaliating, but he had no evidence.
With his body poised for action, Yuan Hongfei cautiously clicked on the image. His pupils suddenly contracted, his heart involuntarily quickened, and a bead of cold sweat even appeared on his forehead.
The picture shows a little girl with someone handing her food. On the other side, someone seems to have noticed something unusual, with a look of extreme horror on their face.
Although there was only one picture, Yuan Hongfei noticed a strong sense of incongruity after just one glance.
That little girl is acting strange!
Although she looks no different from a normal human, the subtle differences in her features and expressions create a sense of the uncanny valley.
"How many people have seen this picture?" Yuan Hongfei asked, his voice trembling slightly.
"Out of caution, we didn't look at that picture. You were the first person on the Zhanying to see it..." The Navy officer noticed Yuan Hongfei's expression and sensed something was wrong, becoming tense as well.
Yuan Hongfei subconsciously swallowed, trying to reassure himself that it was just a random picture, and even if he saw it, nothing bad would necessarily happen...
He then asked, "Are you sure this picture was sent from the Shichuan?"
"Yes." The navy was extremely tense.
"Yuan Hongfei, is there a problem with the photos?" Fu Youhua asked anxiously.
Yuan Hongfei swallowed hard. "I have some bad news for you. If the intelligence from the Shichuan was correct, directly or indirectly Observation that ghost could have affected people. So, the Supernatural phenomena may have already spread here."
Upon hearing this, Fu Youhua panicked. "How could this be?"
Yuan Hongfei explained, "This picture might not contain the key information to solve this Supernatural event at all; it might have been deliberately sent by someone... the true face of the ghost."
Fu Youhua was shocked, then enraged, "Damn it, are those South Korea trying to shift the blame? Trying to lure that devil onto the Zhanying?"
He forced himself to calm down, suppressed the anger in his heart, and informed the other Ghost Tamers to brainstorm ideas.
When Hu Jiu learned about this, he immediately said, "Is it possible that this picture was sent by the Ghost Slave or that ghost? Does it want more people to trigger its killing patterns?"
"Although 99.99% of the Fierce Ghost we've encountered in the past are devoid of intelligence, what if we encounter an exception? To this day, we still don't understand what this darkness over the Yellow Sea truly signifies, and who knows what unbelievable things might happen?"
Yuan Hongfei glared at Hu Jiu: "Why are you always spreading alarmist rumors?"
"Rather than the explanation that Fierce Ghosts are intelligent, I'm more inclined to believe that this picture was deliberately sent by people on the Shichuan, who wanted to transfer the Supernatural events on the ship to us!"
Most people present agreed with Yuan Hongfei's guess that people are capable of doing anything irrational when they are in dire straits.
Fu Youhua stared intently at Hu Jiu, then glanced around. "Things have come to this point, there's no point in saying more. What we need to do now is strengthen our defenses, especially Yuan Hongfei. You're the only one on the ship who saw that picture and seems to have witnessed the true face of the Fierce Ghost, so if the Supernatural phenomena spread, you might be the first person to be attacked."
"My suggestion is to have you quarantined and arrange for several Ghost Tamer to take turns guarding you, so that you won't be overwhelmed or unable to react in time if you really encounter danger."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Hongfei clenched his fists, his eyes flashing with anger, his fingernails digging into his palms, leaving several deep marks.
Unfortunately, his outward display of anger was of no use, since everyone around him was Ghost Tamer and no one was frightened by him.
After his initial anger subsided, Yuan Hongfei took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. At this point, further anger was pointless; taking timely countermeasures was the right choice.
"I agree to quarantine," he said through gritted teeth.
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." Fu Youhua said immediately, "There's an interrogation room on the ship, quite far from the crowd. You can go there first. Don't worry, we'll protect you. Besides, we don't even know if the ghost will launch an attack."
Yuan Hongfei gave a forced smile. If he were truly afraid of being attacked, he should have immediately put himself in Golden Corpse Bag. Placing him in a remote interrogation room was clearly a ploy to lure him into a trap!
But what more could he say in this situation?
"We don't know if a ghost attack will come, or when it will appear. For now, other Ghost Tamers should stay away from me to avoid being caught in the crossfire and becoming the next target of the ghost. If I am attacked by a ghost, I will definitely notify everyone immediately," Yuan Hongfei said righteously.
These words drew everyone's attention; they hadn't expected that someone who seemed so unlikeable in everyday life would turn out to be so reliable in a crucial moment.
Bullshit!
Yuan Hongfei simply didn't want others to see his secret weapon!
Although he had selfish motives, he did indeed act with great righteousness.
Fu Youhua waved his hand dismissively. "Let's leave this matter as it is for now. I will immediately launch an investigation. If it really was the Shichuan that deliberately sent these pictures, I will make them pay the price!"
Yuan Hongfei was led to the interrogation room. Although he asked the other Ghost Tamer not to approach him, Fu Youhua still arranged for a few people to observe the interrogation room from a distance.
"This is just a bolt from the blue," Yuan Hongfei muttered softly in the interrogation room.
The people on the Shichuan are too incompetent. They have a vague understanding of the ghost's killing patterns and triggering mechanisms. Without much information, if the Fierce Ghost attacks unexpectedly, it could easily result in a kill on first sight.
Fortunately, Yuan Hongfei possessed a Supernatural Item, so even if he were to act as bait, his chances of survival were not low.
Thinking this, she reached into her pocket, and when she took her hand out again, she saw a strangely shaped ring on her middle finger.
He gently rubbed the ring a few times, and Supernatural aura began to surge within it. His skin gradually took on a bluish-black metallic sheen.
However, just as Yuan Hongfei was anxiously awaiting the attack, the others on the ship were the first to encounter trouble.
"Something terrible has happened! There have been unusual deaths inside the Zhanying!"
"What!" Fu Youhua's expression changed upon receiving the message, then he asked, "How is Yuan Hongfei doing?"
