Chapter 59: The Mohawk Language

Strong desires were the easiest to exploit. If Tang Qi wanted to form a force and get some people he could use, these people in the team, especially Nathan and Javier who had seen him dispel evil spirits, were definitely the more suitable candidates.

Tang Qi could even concoct some special medicine under a curse or find some apparatus to control these two as slaves.

Unfortunately, this was not in line with Tang Qi's future plans.

Hence, in front of everyone, Tang Qi could only respond with a helpless smile, saying plainly, "Everyone, I am only an advisor. A weak advisor who has no combat power and cannot make people supernatural.

"It was by accident that Sergeant Stana came across those special bullets. They disappear after they are used and are limited. Only the sergeant's Wine Red Rhino can fire them.

"And that scene was just a dangerous accident. I will definitely not take the risk again. If I didn't manage to find the spell, I would be a dead person now.

"Sergeant James is a good example."

Tang Qi's last sentence was like a splash of cold water on Nathan and Javier.

The two remembered the scene that happened an hour ago. Although James was very detestable, he was still a member of the police force.

Nathan and Javier had known him for several years. After seeing him becoming a splendid firework of exploding flesh in front of their eyes, it was difficult to erase such memories from their head so quickly.

Thanks to Tang Qi's reminder, everyone in the office remembered what happened in the cramped house. Except for the big-chested girl who was in charge of logistics, the field staff and several of the pathologists all turned pale and fell silent immediately.

When ordinary people were faced with a combination of supernaturalness, evil spirits, demons, evil gods most of them had two reactions.

Excitement and fear!

When the excitement was extinguished, what surged forth was fear.

At this point, they finally remembered why this newly formed team's remunerations and benefits were ridiculously good.

It now looked like some kind of "blood money" in advance.

If every case in the future was like that crime on Tulip Street and they had to deal with terrifying existences like evil spirits, would their lives be lost as fast and as terribly as James's?

When the brutal reality struck, except for old detective Gideon who seemed to see past life and death, the rest showed hesitant expressions on their faces.

The atmosphere had taken a drastic turn.

When this happened, Stana, who was the leader, did not step forward to provide comfort.

This situation was already expected. In fact, except for Tang Qi who had signed the contract and Stana who was absolutely determined, everyone else in this group had the opportunity to pull out if they regretted their decision.

It was a rough way of coping. The police department could not think of any other way except for this.

Perhaps in other cities, there would be formal, official, supernatural organizations that were used to eliminate "strange phenomena".

But Moses City was not a city of high status.

In fact, being able to rope in Tang Qi as an advisor had exceeded the expectations of the black female commissioner.

If this was not the case, would she sign the letter of appointment that everyone knew was unfavorable to the police department?

But this silence did not last long.

Before the first person could pull out, a sudden change shattered the atmosphere.

The phones rang one after another.

The phone on every desk in the office rang.

Everyone instinctively entered their working state, picked up the phone, and talked to the other end before hanging up. They then performed the same action, getting up from their desks as though they were going to get something.

Everyone looked at each other doing the same thing, as though they all understood something, and smiled bitterly.

However, there was no delay, and soon, they were out.

They then returned quickly.

But this time, each of them was carrying at least several boxes of files.

"Make a guess. What are these?" Javier, who was carrying four boxes of files, helplessly stuck his head out and asked.

"Strange cases, or should I say suspected strange cases. And this is just the first batch, coming from several nearby administrative areas."

Nathan, who was wearing a sweater with an elephant, also smiled bitterly.

Fortunately for others, they had only viewed the horrifying scene. Apart from some lingering psychological scars, they were, at the moment, unable to fully grasp the gravity of the situation. However, these two had actually faced evil spirits. If these cases were true, they believed that they might not survive beyond the next few days.

Undoubtedly, the current scene was the result after Tang Qi dealt with the Tulip Street murder case.

Moses City was not a small city. When the Spirit Tide returned, all kinds of strange phenomena would reemerge. Naturally, strange cases would rise as well.

Before the formation of this response team, each administrative area would have to deal with such cases themselves.

But now, the "professionals" would be handling them.

If it was a normal homicide or something similar, Nathan or Javier would not have any fear.

Unfortunately, the murder was real, but the murderer was not human.

And they were not professionals, at least not yet.

Fortunately, their advisor Tang Qi shook his head solemnly and said, "Impossible that these are real If there were so many strange cases in Moses City, there would be chaos already. While strange phenomena are constantly emerging, it is still within control. At least for now."

"Establish a screening mechanism and pick out the most urgent and pressing cases. We can deal with the rest later." At this critical moment, Stana revealed her extensive experience.

She swiftly discussed with Tang Qi on the screening criteria and disseminated these to everyone for them to work with.

The details given by Tang Qi were simple and crude, and there were two in total.

One, repeated deaths.

Two, apparent traces of non-humans.

Immediately, the office area was full of sounds of rustling papers.

Tang Qi was not involved. He was just an advisor, wasn't he?

So he made himself a cup of coffee, sipping it as he muttered that it was as bad as what legend said. He then went back to the lounge. After he locked the room, he took out the "Fascinating Hair Knot" and continued to use his spirit energy to manipulate and untie it.

Roughly an hour had passed. Tang Qi's mouth curled up with a faint smile as he looked at the two separated black hairs in front of him that were burning slowly. At the same time, two beautiful girls who appeared to be twins appeared in front of him.

Both were wearing some weird dresses, and their faces were covered with oil paint, looking like a particular class of ethnic minority.

As the hairs burned out, the two girls would disappear.

Suddenly, their hazy souls came forward and kissed Tang Qi on each side of his cheeks.

At the same time, two cold streams entered Tang Qi's mind, converging together. They then turned into a piece of information fragment that was absorbed by Tang Qi directly.

[You have gained a slice of knowledge!]

[You had mastered the Mohawk language!]

As Tang Qi subconsciously digested the new knowledge in his head, the two girls performed a special bow to him. And like before, they slowly dissipated into the air with carefree smiles.
