Exorcist’s Self-Cultivation

Du Wei crossed the isolation belt, holding a black umbrella as he stood not far from the villa.

He looked silently at the second-floor window, his whole demeanor extremely gloomy.

Behind him were Tom’s two subordinates.

After making a call to Officer Tom and getting consent, they no longer tried to stop Du Wei.

As far as they were concerned, this psychologist with a good relationship with their boss, Tom, was mysteriously over-the-top.

Standing in the rain with a black umbrella, it looked very odd however you saw it.

"Hey, Dr. Du Wei, our boss is about to arrive, and if you don’t have anything else to do, we still recommend heading back outside the isolation belt.”

Hearing this,

Du Wei, without turning, said, “Okay, I’ll go out now.”

He took a deep look at the villa’s second-floor window, where there was a woman’s face, white as paper, staring with pitch-black eyes, her gaze empty and lifeless fixed on him.

"I hope you’ll behave.”

Du Wei muttered silently to himself and then turned to leave.

However, the woman’s face at the second-floor window continued to watch his retreating figure until he walked beyond the isolation belt, then slowly faded from sight.

It was as if it were still brewing something, not yet the time to erupt.

Du Wei didn’t have the energy to deal with it at the moment, nor could he find a suitable approach. This former Masked Evil Spirit was beyond his control, and likewise, it couldn’t do anything to him.

Neither could kill the other.

But for Du Wei, as soon as he found the right means, he would turn against this Evil Spirit.

After all, his main base was now in New York and he couldn’t leave in the short term, and his girlfriend was unwilling to part with him, making it critical to ensure New York’s safety.

At this moment,

A police car drove up and quickly came to a stop, immediately swinging open a door.

"Fuck! I hate responding to calls on rainy days!”

Tom cursed as he got out of the car, with an umbrella instantly handed to him by a subordinate.

"Boss, Dr. Du Wei has been waiting for you for quite a while!”

Tom grunted a response and then looked towards Du Wei, who held a black umbrella with a calm expression on his face.

He shrugged his shoulders and said, “Every time it rains and I see you, I feel like something is about to happen. Tell me, my good brother, what are you planning to do this time? Don’t tell me something is about to happen to this villa.”

Hearing this,

Du Wei, somewhat speechless, shook his head and said, “You might be disappointed, but the villa won’t be in trouble for now. I just came to make sure it was safe.”

"Wait a second.”

Tom waved his hand to his subordinates, motioning them to leave, then continued to ask, “Every time you say nothing will happen, I feel like something will. Tell me the truth, is there another terrifying incident that’s occurred?”

As far as Tom was concerned,

He had never seen Du Wei involved in anything unrelated to the Evil Spirit; either he was resolving an Evil Spirit event or he was on his way to tackle one.

So, he didn’t believe a word Du Wei said.

To which Du Wei coolly responded, “The matters that could be resolved in New York have temporarily all been taken care of by me. It’s just that there are some Evil Spirit events in other cities that I have to go and deal with.”

It’s okay to tell Tom, after all he’s with the New York police, and his role should not be underestimated.

Plus, the connection’s right there, it wouldn’t hurt to give him a heads up.

But Tom said with a conflicted face, “Where are you going on a business trip? How long will you be gone?”

Du Wei replied, “Yard City, probably two or three days.”

Tom made a face and said, “Two or three days! My god! How can you leave New York for such a long time? Without you in New York, I don’t feel safe at all!”

His tone was extremely reluctant.

Du Wei subtly took a step back, his gaze toward Tom becoming wary.

Seeing this, Tom’s face went green, and he quickly explained, “Fuck! I mean, without you in New York, what if I get targeted by an Evil Spirit again, then I’d be really screwed.”

Du Wei looked at him and said, “You could go to Father Tony.”

Tom made a face and said, “If he finds out I’m being targeted by an Evil Spirit, he’d probably lock the church doors and never let me in. He’s more scared of dying than I am.”

Du Wei felt a headache coming on, rubbed his forehead, and then said, “There shouldn’t be any trouble for the time being. If you run into any, you can call me anytime.”

Tom still looked miserable, “Then what? By the time you rush back from Yard City to New York, you could probably attend my funeral. How about I go with you to Yard City? I think I can face those Evil Spirits with you.”

As he said this, he gestured with his hands and made faces, “When the time comes, we’ll form an Exorcist duo, and take down those damn Evil Spirits together.”

Du Wei’s expression darkened, and he walked past Tom toward his car without further ado.

He didn’t have time to banter with Tom here; he still had to visit the Orlando Area to make sure everything was fine before returning to the clinic to get ready to leave New York.

Tom followed Du Wei like a persistent bad odor, comfortably opened the car door, and took a seat in the passenger’s side.

"Hey… you think ‘Exorcist Brothers’ isn’t cool enough? I can think of some other names. I feel a lot safer with you than in New York.”

Du Wei replied, annoyed, “I’m heading to the Horror House now. Are you sure you want to come with me?”

Tom’s complexion changed, “What are you doing at that cursed place?”

Du Wei said coldly, “An inspection job!”

Tom immediately caved in, “Okay, actually I’ve found a fire case history from Esselgreen’s gynecology and obstetrics hospital twenty years ago. Joanna might be one of the newborns who died in the fire then.”

Du Wei frowned and pressed the gas pedal, “Talk on the road!”

Tom was stunned, “Fuck! Wait, I want to get out! I don’t want to go with you to the Horror House; dozens of people died there, it’s practically a den of ghosts! I’ll be scared witless!”

Du Wei chuckled coldly, “Didn’t you want to form some Exorcist duo with me? The Evil Spirit cases I deal with are basically all on the level of the Horror House, so it’s a good opportunity to build up your courage!”

Tom’s face turned pale, “Actually… I think professional things should be left to professionals. As a police officer like me, I’m better suited for the aftermath. What do you think, good buddy?”

Du Wei replied coldly, “I’m glad you’ve made the right choice. Being an Exorcist isn’t as cool as you think; I wouldn’t recommend it unless you’re looking for a thrill.”

Tom said with a flattering smile, “I actually prefer a simple and quiet life, let’s forget about the thrilling stuff.”

Du Wei’s expression softened slightly, and he said resignedly, “Generally, ordinary people will never encounter an Evil Spirit in their lifetime.”

Tom sighed, “But I’m not confident in my luck at all.”

Du Wei said helplessly, “If you’re unlucky enough to meet two Evil Spirits in a week, I’d suggest you buy a good cemetery plot. But if you think you can still save yourself, I’d only suggest you go to Father Tony. He’s got a basement full of stuff to deal with Evil Spirits, you know…”

Rarely, Du Wei made a joke.

Tom immediately caught on, his eyes showing a hint of mischief.

Maybe I should invite Father Tony to have some fun in the Red Light District, improve our relationship a bit.

If I can get it as solid as with Du Wei, would I still need to worry about Evil Spirits?
