[046] Lost
When she recalled the content of the case, she told Zhang Ping.
About a year and a half ago, she became a formal combatant of the Sweeping Team and could read various past case files.
Some of the cases recorded in these files have been resolved by members of the sweeping team, while some cases are unsolved and have not yet been found.
Among them, a case of missing corpses thirty years ago was very strange.
Because a large number of corpses are easily attracted to corpse-eating dogs, Mingzhu City is cremation.
But in most cases, if someone dies, the funeral management office in Mingzhu City will leave four days to remember the deceased's family.
This case is strange and strange that the bodies disappeared one after another.
At the beginning, this incident alarmed the patrol team, but the patrol team searched the whole city without finding any clues. The body disappeared for a month. In the end, the case was transferred from the city lord to the cleaning team, and the cleaning team was responsible for investigating the case.
But the investigation results of this case were left unresolved.
Zhang Sishan couldn't understand this case, so he took the file to ask Situ Shibai. Situ Shibai told her that the case was done by the lost, but unfortunately the lost person was very cunning and found that his actions had alarmed the three major organizations in Mingzhu City and had already escaped decisively.
Therefore, this case became a unsolved case.
"Sister Sisi, what kind of monster is the Lost?" Zhang Ping couldn't help asking after hearing this.
Liu Sishan said solemnly: "The lost is also the awakened one. The captain told me at that time that ability will slowly change according to the user's habits, and finally become the most suitable and most used to form for the user. So if the user's mind is not strong enough and gradually controlled by the ability, what will it become?"
"Lost?" Zhang Ping widened his eyes and said in surprise.
Liu Sishan nodded and said, "Well, the lost one is the awakened one who cannot control his own strength, but instead becomes a slave of power."
"This will happen again." Zhang Ping was very shocked.
But after thinking about it carefully, he was actually unknowingly affected by his ability.
Although he was not particularly lazy in his previous life, he would always take a break from his busy schedule and have some fun for himself. However, after coming to this world, especially after eating the contract gem, his greatest pleasure seemed to be exercise.
Thousands of push-ups and thousands of sit-ups, he didn't dare to think about it in his previous life.
After thinking about it again, he has especially liked to stay next to the stove since he got the ability of a fire eater. After getting the night walker, he slept less and less at night. After obtaining the appraisal technique, he always liked to use other things to identify them, and his curiosity was far beyond the past.
And the pure blood body I just got...
A few minutes ago, he was thinking about finding a reason to stay in Liu Sishan's body, so he simply couldn't come out.
In fact, he was indeed influenced by his ability without realizing it, but this change is subtle and silent.
"Sister Sisi, do you think I will become a lost person in the future?" he asked with some concern.
Liu Sishan smiled faintly and said, "You think this is too far away now. Generally, the lost people are top awakeners. However, the captain said that as long as you keep your inner justice and do not easily trample on the bottom line set by yourself, there will be no risk of losing."
Simply put, it is to control the ability, not be controlled by the ability.
Because the stronger the individual and morality and law are, the less binding they have on them, once such a strong man tramples on the bottom line he has adhered to in the past, he will inevitably trample on them again and again.
This is very dangerous.
The most correct way is to keep your inner bottom line tightly, not give yourself the chance to challenge the bottom line, and fundamentally eliminate the risk of loss.
For example, Situ Shibai, the way he sticks to the bottom line is to never copy other people's abilities without permission from others.
This is a limitation.
It can prevent one from doing evil because of his ability becoming stronger and stronger, and eventually becoming a slave to his ability.
"I remember!"
Zhang Ping couldn't help but think of the dead Zeng Xiaofan.
Because of the increase in strength and the knowledge that he would not be punished, he actually used lynching at that time. The correct way should be to knock Zeng Xiaofan out and hand it over to the sweeping team for trial.
The patrol team is gone, which does not mean that the laws of Mingzhu City will be invalidated. He actually has other choices.
"Sister Sisi, I actually did something wrong tonight, and I killed someone."
Zhang Ping clenched his fists, looked at Liu Sishan after reflecting on it, and told Liu Sishan very seriously about killing Zeng Xiaofan tonight.
"Well, I understand. Although it is wrong to use personal actions, since the other party has done many evil things, then let me not take the case. I won't ask the captain for me for this matter, and your reward will be gone." After hearing this, Liu Sishan couldn't help but reach out and rub Zhang Ping's head, and said with a smile.
Zhang Ping reacted and frowned and said, "Is there a reward?"
"If the Zeng Xiaofan you mentioned is the thief I know about, then he will not only be able to die, but also be able to receive rewards from the patrol team or the sweeping team regardless of life or death. I remember his bounty very high." Liu Sishan replied.
Zhang Ping felt a little regretful, but when he thought of the Lost, he felt that this was the case.
If he knew in advance that Zeng Xiaofan was a thief who could do whatever he wanted, then it would be reasonable to kill Zeng Xiaofan, but at that time he took advantage of his anger to kill people to vent his anger, which would be wrong.
This is different from the previous killing to rescue Chen Junting. The former is to save people. Moreover, the criminals have obvious tendency to resist and attack, so he is purely self-defense.
The latter was scared by him, and he could not threaten his life without killing him.
"Sister Sisi, besides becoming a lost person, are there any other potential dangers for the awakened person?" Zhang Ping asked with some concern.
Liu Sishan smiled and said, "There will not be any danger in general. After all, the awakened person has more control ability, and the lost person has a very small probability. However, if the lost person deteriorates further, he will become a veritable monster and a sinker!"
"Can you still evolve?" Zhang Ping said in surprise.
Liu Sishan nodded and said, "I was shocked when I found out. In fact, the lost people are more like patients suffering from mental illness, while the destitute people have the ability to truly possess their own consciousness. They will constantly transform their bodies in order to strengthen themselves and eventually become... monsters!"
"The ability has its own consciousness?"
Zhang Ping felt creepy, as if his ability opened his eyes in the darkness and was quietly peeking at him.
In the black and white lights, Liu Sishan looked at Zhang Ping with a pale face and couldn't help but smile and said quietly: "Because ability will slowly become the form of the user's habit. What if the form of the user's habit itself is abnormal? An abnormal state will create an abnormal ability form, and this is the sinker!"
"The awakened person actually has such a terrifying hidden danger, it's so terrible." Zhang Ping swallowed, feeling as if he would lose control at any time.
Seeing this, Liu Sishan couldn't help but smile and said, "Zhang Ping, what are you afraid of? Can you control your body and mind 100%? Isn't that good if you give an order, don't be lost or sink into it?"
