The talisman I just placed on Gangbo is called the Substitution Talisman. It has a few strands of my hair on it, allowing Gangbo to temporarily become my substitute.
The Substitution Talisman does not change Gangbo's appearance; it merely alters his aura to match mine, creating an illusion for those around him, making them mistakenly believe he is me.
The effect of the Substitution Talisman is limited; it can only deceive ordinary people without any magical power. Anyone with even a bit of magic, like Hu Yalong who has activated his Wisdom Eye, can see through it easily. However, the people around Gangbo are all ordinary folks without any magical abilities.
Gangbo had only chased for a few steps when the Substitution Talisman spontaneously ignited, and a beam of white light shot into his body. Gangbo trembled as if he had been electrocuted, standing there in a daze.
"Hey? How did that guy end up here!"
"Who cares! Everyone, let's go beat him up!"
Influenced by the Substitution Talisman, Gangbo's subordinates wasted no time and rolled up their sleeves to attack. The first person to strike landed a punch squarely on Gangbo's face, breaking his nose.
"What are you doing?! Why are you hitting me?!" Gangbo cried out in pain, tears and snot streaming down his face as he clutched his nose and crouched down in agony.
Although Gangbo's voice remained unchanged, to those around him, it sounded just like mine due to the effects of the Substitution Talisman.
"Yeah, I'm talking about you!"
"Why waste time talking? Just beat him up!"
Someone kicked Gangbo hard, knocking him to the ground. The others rushed in and began to pummel him with fists and feet.
"Ah! Stop hitting me! I'm Gangbo!" Gangbo shouted desperately, covering his head with his hands. But no one heard his cries.
Lan Yue and I stood a short distance away, watching the chaos unfold.
Since Lan Yue was farther away, he was not affected by the Substitution Talisman. Seeing the crowd attacking Gangbo, he asked in confusion, " Brother Jiang Ling, what's going on? Did you have a hand in this?"
I grinned mischievously and touched my ear. "Don't worry about that! Look at that guy go! He just kicked Gangbo right in the... you know where!"
"Damn! That'll ruin Gangbo for good!" A gleeful smile spread across Lan Yue's face. " Brother Jiang Ling, if Gangbo is out of commission, he won't be able to harm women anymore. That person who did this has made a huge contribution to men everywhere! We should give him a certificate of appreciation! Hahaha!"
We watched the commotion for about five or six minutes, and by then, the effect of the Substitution Talisman had worn off.
"Everyone stop! This person is Brother Gangbo!" someone shouted loudly, and only then did everyone cease their actions and take a good look at Gangbo.
Gangbo was battered and bruised, his body covered in shoe prints, including a size thirty-eight print on his face. While those details were not the most important, what mattered was that Gangbo was tightly clutching his legs, rolling on the ground in agony. He had taken a heavy blow to his groin, and it seemed he was in excruciating pain.
"Call an ambulance!" Gangbo said weakly, cold sweat beading on his forehead.
The person who had struck him awkwardly scratched his head and quietly moved to the back of the group. They all lifted Gangbo and headed toward the infirmary.
Our school's security was not very good; fights like this happened three or four times regularly, and no one could manage them all. The school security would turn a blind eye as long as no one was killed. Although there were many spectators, none of the security personnel had arrived yet.
Taking advantage of the distraction, Lan Yue and I quietly slipped into the classroom.
As usual, I played on my phone at the back of the classroom or rested my head on my desk to sleep. The teacher had long given up on me, so no one bothered me.
It wasn't until the third period ended that I was playing a game when Lan Yue suddenly ran over, excitedly standing in front of me. "Brother Jiang Ling, the police are here looking for you!"
I thought maybe Gangbo had reported me, but seeing Lan Yue's excited expression left me puzzled. I put my phone away and asked curiously, "Why are you so happy that the police are looking for me?"
Lan Yue pulled me outside the classroom. "Just go out and see!"
I stepped out of the classroom and saw three police officers standing outside, with Zhang Yang leading them. I turned back to Lan Yue with a mischievous grin; now I understood why she was so excited.
I knew Zhang Yang wouldn't come looking for me without reason. I turned to her and asked, "Sister Zhang Yang, what brings you here?"
Zhang Yang glanced around and noticed that while there were onlookers, they were keeping their distance. She walked closer to me and said softly, "Classmate Jiang Ling, I've encountered a very strange case recently and might need your help. I wonder if you'd be willing to assist me?"
Zhang Yang used to be skeptical about the existence of ghosts or supernatural beings, but after what happened at the internet café, her perspective had completely changed.
Three days ago, she received a peculiar case that she hadn't considered from a supernatural angle nor found any clues to solve it. Now she was seeking my help to explore a different approach.
I noticed that the Eerie Aura surrounding Zhang Yang had intensified once again. I already guessed that the case she wanted me to help with was likely a Supernatural Case.
I nodded and said, "I can help you solve the case, but I have one condition!"
Upon hearing that I was willing to assist her, a smile appeared on Zhang Yang's face. "What condition do you have? As long as it's not too unreasonable, go ahead!"
I pointed at Lan Yue beside me. "I want to bring Lan Yue along!"
Lan Yue had been standing there with a silly grin ever since he stepped out of the classroom, his eyes glued to Zhang Yang. When he heard my words, he was so excited that he could hardly close his mouth.
Zhang Yang seemed to remember Lan Yue a bit and readily nodded. "No problem!"
With a beaming smile, Lan Yue rushed over and whispered in my ear, " Brother Jiang Ling, you're such a good friend! When I get back to the dorm, I'll give you my 500g external hard drive. It's filled with all those island country movies you love!"
"You're quite considerate!" I patted Lan Yue on the shoulder. Then, looking at Zhang Yang in front of me and recalling what happened this morning, I shyly touched my ear, leaving Zhang Yang confused.
Zhang Yang successfully requested a whole day off from our homeroom teacher. Just as we were about to leave, Hu Yalong suddenly ran over and hugged my arm. " Brother Jiang Ling, it's so boring at school! Take me with you!"
I remembered that Hu Yalong had already activated his Wisdom Eye, which could be helpful. So I checked with Zhang Yang, and Hu Yalong joined our group.
