Catastrophe Containment Facility

At this time, a young couple appeared in dormitory 224, where Wen Wen had fought the night before.

"The cold hasn't completely dissipated, it must have been just now!" The youth wearing a cowboy hat squatted on the ground and touched the floor with his hand, noting the temperature.

"Is it one of our people?" asked the girl with red hair, wearing hot pants and white stockings.

"No, the supporter at the door must have been hypnotized; his memory has issues," the cowboy-hatted man said, shaking his head.

The cowboy-hatted man closed his eyes and when he opened them again, the whites had all turned green. He scanned the room, and after a moment, he sighed and his eyes returned to normal.

"Did you find anything?" the girl asked, covering her nose. She felt there was a stench in the air.

"The person from last night was very careful, didn't leave much trace, but the Qi hasn't dissipated yet. I should be able to track him...

Moreover, judging by the Qi, it should be a newly awakened superpower user. I hope those lunatics don't encounter him first, or it will be troublesome later on."

...

After coming out of the Sanctuary, Wen Wen manifested his gloves and began to tap on them; he wanted to try out the basic abilities of a Ghost compared to those of a vampire.

After making his selection, his body underwent a strange transformation, every cell changing, and then...

Then his clothes fell off...

His entire form became incorporeal, but evidently, the Catastrophe Containment Facility had not granted his clothes the same ability.

"This is... so embarrassing," he said.

Now, Wen Wen was like a ghost; he could float in the air, be invisible to ordinary people, and pass through some objects.

But beyond that, he had no other abilities. It seemed Little Ghost Qin Shuang's freezing ability was a special category that wasn't included in his basic abilities.

So, Wen Wen sat still in the hotel room for about ten minutes, waiting for the cooldown period to pass before switching his body back to normal.

"Even if others can't see me, I don't want to move around completely naked," he said.

Wen Wen scratched his head in frustration. If he couldn't solve the problem of his clothes disappearing when he transformed, the usefulness of his Ghostly Physique was greatly diminished, at least for him.

"Ordinary clothes probably can't withstand the influence of the Catastrophe Containment Facility... so what about clothes from the Catastrophe Containment Facility?" he pondered.

He opened the silver briefcase and changed into a black trench coat that fit him well, flattering his figure.

"It's so light... and it doesn't hinder movement much; I could consider wearing this outfit more often."

After putting on the trench coat, Wen Wen tried becoming a ghost again. This time, only a lone black undergarment fell to the floor...

The Sanctuary's uniform did not include undergarments...

"Hmm... although it's chilly, it's still better than before. Let's go out and have a look," he said.

Wen Wen, moving his body and concealing his form, floated out of the room and meandered through the entire hotel, reveling in the thrill of being invisible.

Teasing the sensitive cats and dogs, blowing cold air on people's necks to give them goosebumps, spying on some private moments...

Well, the fact that he didn't peek into the women's bathhouse already showed he had some scruples.

After fully experiencing it, he realized that a ghost's body was not omnipotent and had many limitations.

Firstly, there were many metals he couldn't pass through, and in this state, other than suddenly appearing to scare people, he had no other means to attack anyone. If he encountered someone who could touch spirits, he would just be a target.

Therefore, although this form was novel, it wasn't as useful as the vampire form. However, in certain special situations, it might be extremely useful.

He stepped out of the hotel and looked up at the sky. The originally blue sky had turned grey and hazy, as if many blurry shadows were floating in the air.

In the corners of the streets, one could vaguely see some ethereal figures wandering aimlessly with blank faces.

These must be ordinary ghosts. Even though they were a distance away from evil spirits, Ghostly Qin Shuang was still much stronger than these ordinary ghosts.

"It looks like this is a ghost's vision, different from what normal humans see. Those walking on the ground are ordinary ghosts, and those floating in the sky, what are they?"

Wen Wen squinted his eyes, trying to see the floating ethereal shadows more clearly. As he strained, the shadows became more distinct.

It was a monster with the upper body of a human, wings on its back, and a writhing snake tail!

When Wen Wen saw the monster clearly, it suddenly turned its head to look at Wen Wen, its green eyes flashing with shocking madness!

"Not good! I've caught its attention!" Wen Wen quickly averted his gaze, but it was already too late.

Their gazes met, forming a thin line made of grey mist. The monster charged along the line towards Wen Wen with great speed!

Midway, it suddenly paused as if squeezing through an extremely narrow space.

Now, its advance was slow, but with every inch it moved, its figure became more substantial, no longer just an ethereal shadow but like a real monster!

"Damn it, should've looked less at things I wasn't supposed to see."

Wen Wen cursed softly, then quickly returned to his room and switched to his vampire mode. Fortunately, while he had spent a fair amount of time playing pranks in his ghost form, or else he would've become prey for that creature.

In his ghost form, he had no combat ability and could only become food for that monster!

Now, he didn't return to his room to escape but to grab weapons.

In his left hand, he wielded a watermelon knife, and in his right, he held a delicate revolver.

As a somewhat renowned and legal detective, Wen Wen was qualified to carry a gun. Even if he fired a gun within the city, as long as he provided a reasonable explanation afterwards, there would be no trouble.

Wen Wen wasn't a traditional good guy. Some of the things he did, if made public, would even earn him condemnation from the public.

But at least, he didn't have the habit of letting the trouble he attracted involve others!

And even if he had to run and shift the blame, he would wait until he was sure that he couldn't handle it himself!

On the rooftop of the hotel, Wen Wen watched as the monster slowly became visible in the real world, his heart filled with mixed feelings. Catching a new monster hadn't brought him advancement but had instead brought trouble first.

"I just took one look at you, was it necessary to chase me? And... I hope those cops will believe that I was really fighting a monster..."

He aimed his revolver at the monster that was gradually making its way in and decisively opened fire, unleashing all of the bullets in his gun, the deafening shots causing commotion around the hotel.

Luckily, it was midnight and there were no pedestrians on the road, or else the scene would have been even worse.
