Using Plastic Wrap to Catch Ghosts, Frying Ghosts in a Wok
Feng Xue didn't respond to Katarina's words. Instead, she put on the bulky VR headset that looked like it came from decades ago and handed a pair to Katarina as well.
Upon seeing this, Katarina immediately connected the Live Broadcast Platform's equipment to K-729 so that viewers in the Live Broadcast Room could also see her perspective.
The moment the device started up, the live chat exploded with comments.
[Holy crap, now I know why this junk isn't selling!]
[What kind of vision is this? I don't even get dizzy in 6D Dream mode, but I Think this for three seconds!]
[Upstairs, where did you get your 6D Dream project? Wasn't that banned?]
[Open the door, tax inspection!]
Katarina had no time to care about the comments in the Live Broadcast Room. At this moment, she felt her brain was overheating. A large amount of information was flooding her eyes. Things that were originally invisible were transformed into things that could be barely understood visually, but were then distinguished from normal vision. Her brain's information processing capacity suddenly soared several levels.
However, Feng Xue appeared completely unfazed, even taking over the commentary for the dizzy Katarina, explaining the situation to viewers who had left the "anchor's perspective" due to the dizziness:
"Ghosts can be viewed as a probability cloud that requires intense observation to detect. Why is it that women are more likely to see ghosts than men in legends? This is not because of so-called Yang Energy or other metaphysical phenomena, but simply because of eyesight."
"Humans generally have three types of cone cells (cells that distinguish colors). If one type is less or even absent, it can lead to color weakness or even color blindness. However, sometimes, a group of people have a fourth type of cone cell, which can cause them to have a color discrimination ability that is beyond that of ordinary people."
"Because they can obtain more information through observation, people with the fourth type of cone cells are more likely to see ghosts than ordinary people. And since the fourth type of cone cells mostly appear in women, it is also women who see ghosts."
"As for the legendary 'yin-yang eyes,' they are actually a special mutation that grants a wider field of vision than ordinary people, such as the ability to see ultraviolet and infrared light."
[Damn! This guy makes a lot of sense!]
No wonder I couldn't tell my girlfriend's lipstick shades apart; turns out she has an extra color sense!
[Those men who claim to be able to tell the difference are actually...]
Seeing the chaos in the comments section, Feng Xue pretended not to notice at all, while looking around the room. Unable to stand K-729, Katarina simply took off her equipment and used it as a handheld camera to provide a "ghost-catching perspective" for viewers who could tolerate it. Meanwhile, she quickly followed Feng Xue and started to bring up topics at just the right time to ensure the quality of the live stream.
With a professional comedian providing the punchline, Feng Xue's explanation went exceptionally smoothly. However, when he finally got to the part about how to deal with ghosts, his words suddenly stopped.
Before he could even speak, the Live Broadcast Room suddenly exploded, because at that very moment, a few viewers watching the live stream from the K-729's perspective began frantically sending out comments.
Holy crap!
[I saw it! I saw it!]
[Is this what ghosts look like?]
[This little thing is quite unique in appearance!]
As the barrage of comments increased, more and more people, enduring discomfort, flooded into the K-729's view mode, and then they saw the so-called ghost—
The thing roughly resembled a human figure, but like a naked-eye 4D effect, it gave off an illusory feeling. However, compared to its illusory body, its eyes gave off a real and terrifying feeling.
Those were eyes that looked like they'd been staying up all night for half a month; the whites of their eyes were bloodshot, and the irises gave off an unpleasant feeling of illness. Those eyes were staring intently at Katarina, as if they were about to pounce on her and devour her at any moment.
"Ah--"
Finally, Katarina let out a bloodcurdling scream, but few viewers offered any comfort to the broadcaster; their focus was elsewhere—
Katarina hadn't brought her K-729 yet!
[Could this be the ability to see ghosts? No wonder the streamer could spot them!]
One commenter made this remark, but it was quickly refuted because those viewers who hadn't yet entered K-729 finally saw the eerie image.
"This is what it means to be observed. When a ghost is observed by enough people, its image collapses. In this case, even ordinary people can see its appearance. However, as long as the number of observers decreases to a certain level, it will become a probability cloud again until it achieves self-observation or is observed by others again."
"So what should we do now?" Katarina suppressed her fear and asked in a trembling voice, whether it was acting or her true feelings, she couldn't tell.
At this moment, Feng Xue completely adopted an attitude of "I've seen the world, this little trouble is nothing," and said matter-of-factly:
"Of course, we should catch it!"
As he spoke, he opened his briefcase and began rummaging through it.
What is the master looking for?
[Duh, of course it's a magic tool for catching ghosts!]
[I Think it should be a cross and peach wood nails]
That's for dealing with vampires; for catching ghosts, it should be a talisman.
The Live Broadcast Room was in an uproar over what Mr. Dunn was looking for, and after a round of searching for the Program Effect, Feng Xue pulled out a roll...
"Preservative Film?" Katarina looked at the thing in Feng Xue's hand with surprise. Judging from the packaging, it should be a new product from Ziguang Kitchen & Bath, but no matter how high-tech it is, it's just a roll of Preservative Film!
"Yes, actually you can use something like a plastic sheet without any problem."
As Feng Xue spoke, she handed one end of the Preservative Film to Katarina, asking her to hold it. She then continued to unfold the Preservative Film and slowly moved towards the "ghost," explaining to Katarina (the audience member):
"To catch a ghost, you must always be on high alert, because even a blink of an eye could cause it to escape. It's completely immobile now because you, me, and the thousands of viewers in the Live Broadcast Room have fixed it in place. So, to restrain a ghost, you absolutely cannot use anything that might obstruct your view. Besides, ordinary ghosts don't interfere much with reality; they basically can't tear open Preservative Film. Using it to catch ghosts is arguably the most economical and practical method."
As she spoke, Feng Xue pressed the Preservative Film in her hand onto the "ghost's" face, and the obvious bulge caused another uproar in the Live Broadcast Room.
As if she had done this countless times before, Feng Xue deftly wrapped the ghost from head to toe with the skill of wrapping a glutinous rice dumpling, until the entire roll of Preservative Film was used up, leaving behind a human-shaped Preservative Film mummy in the room.
"Um, this Preservative Film is so thick you can't see inside anymore, is this okay?" Katarina looked at the motionless human figure on the ground with some concern, while Feng Xue replied matter-of-factly:
"This is another advantage of Preservative Film —it sticks together on its own, forming a closed space, so that even if this cloud of probability disperses, it will only stay within this space."
"What should we do with this?" Katarina looked at the "Preservative Film mummy," worried that it might escape if not stored properly. Feng Xue, however, unusually showed a serious expression and said:
"A more traditional method is to deep-fry it in oil, using the High Temperature to corrupt the information that constitutes the ghost. However, this method has a certain probability of causing the container sealing the ghost to break first, allowing the ghost to escape. Therefore, the modern method is to use Air Fryer... a large one, of course."
