Chapter 4246

"Let's infer the timeline from the beginning again." Bruce opened his mouth and said, "He said: 'We can divide this whole thing into three time stages. One is when the circus was still popular, that is, old Burger's youth. At this time, the circus began to kidnap people, laying the foundation for the town's later population explosion.'"

"Then it's old Burger's middle and old age stage. At this time, the circus could no longer perform, and the town began to decline. But because of the town's fame before, some tourists would still visit here. At this time, the cultists began to attack and imprison these tourists."

"Finally, it's after old Burger died. Linda's father, that is, Burger, grew up and married Aunt Kane. And then, Linda gave birth to Bingo. Subsequently, in the complex political game, the town was completely destroyed."

"There is a question." Kate opened her mouth with one hand on her waist and said, "Did old Burger live until Burger married Aunt Kane?"

"We don't know this, because we couldn't find his grave in the cemetery. This is actually very strange. When old Burger was alive, he was the leader of the sect. How could he not be buried in the local cemetery?"

"What I want to say is, if it was really old Burger possessing the doll and then replacing Aunt Kane, then why would he do this? This is of no benefit to him at all."

Kate stretched out her finger and said: "First of all, if he hoped his son would return to the town, he would absolutely not allow his son to have any contact with such a rich girl. Because the risk of doing this is also very high. Secondly, assuming that the fertility of the women in the Kane family really has problems, then old Burger would even more not agree. As you said, he married a prostitute for the sect back then, how could he allow his son to marry such a person?"

"This is indeed a suspicious point." The agent nodded and said, "Since he could possess the doll and come into contact with Aunt Kane, he could have just killed her directly to end it. From old Burger's marriage, it can be seen that he is a person who is ruthless to others and ruthless to himself, and can sell everything he has in exchange for benefits, let alone his son's."

"Also," Kate said again, "This matter of Linda is also very wrong. You must know that the purpose of their cult is not really to believe, but to seek benefits. Then what is the purpose of their seeking benefits? Isn't it just so that their descendants can be rich for a long time? Even if the evil spirit is immortal, he has no need to target his descendants. This won't bring him any benefits."

"Perhaps he is a psychopath." Bruce said, "Aunt Kane said that the Elders raped Linda, and he might be one of them. Some people have a morbid pursuit of inbreeding, perhaps old Burger is like this."

"I still feel something is wrong. Now it looks like the Burger family didn't live well: Aunt Kane either died early or went crazy, Linda was also persecuted into madness, Bingo died young, and Burger died young. The evil spirit doesn't look like a member of this family, but rather has a grudge against this family."

"There is another question." The agent opened his mouth and said, "What role did the evil spirit play in the water pollution incident? If he already existed, he shouldn't have not known what the mayor and the councilors in Xivi City were doing, right? How could he not know?"

"Why must he know?" Bingo asked, "If they wanted to hide it from him, he shouldn't have been able to do anything, right?"

Everyone looked at him, and Bingo didn't know what he said wrong. Only Kate hugged him and explained patiently: "A person with infinite possession ability, what kind of secret can be hidden from him? Even if those politicians' mouths are very tight, they still have family members, and children. Even if those they protect are protected strictly, what about the factory owners? With such a convenient ability, as long as you investigate, it's impossible not to know."

Bingo shook his head and said: "I think you look too highly of him. I thought the evil spirit appeared after I died, because there was no abnormal phenomenon before the town was destroyed. I think he might have tried to investigate and resist, but it didn't work."

"This is a bit beyond the cognition of a few people." Bingo thought for a while and said, "Although his ability is very powerful, if he wants to use this ability well, he also needs matching wisdom and knowledge, and most importantly—he must have such vision. I don't think he can resist the entire Xivi City government by himself; this is too difficult for an ordinary person from a town."

"There is some truth to it." Bruce said, "Perhaps this is the curse of knowledge. Things that are easy for us might be very difficult for others. Even if it's just a government agency in a small city, it's not that easy to deal with."

The agent also felt that Bingo's words made sense. Still the same sentence, a fool with superpowers is still a fool. It's like opening a cheat in an online game; players who open cheats will have a very obvious feature, that is, the operation is better than humans, and the consciousness is worse than humans.

Many people don't understand what game consciousness is. To put it bluntly, it is actually a judgment on the current situation based on the understanding of the game, and determining what to do next based on this judgment. It actually shows a person's IQ more than simple operation.

Players who open cheats use the high-level operation provided by external programs to reach a segment that doesn't belong to them, and then this short board of consciousness will be very obviously exposed. It is manifested as: shopping after killing someone, because they don't understand what the situation is now, and don't know what to do; or clearly the record is very good-looking, but they can't win the game, because they don't know how to operate at all, how to roll the snowball of small advantages into a victory, so that in the end, they still lose very ugly.

Throughout history, the encounters of many heroes have already shown that politics is not useful just because you have superpowers. Some people's personal force value and ability to lead troops in battle are already very unlike humans, but in the end, they still end up miserably.

Even in the American comic world, such examples are everywhere. Many superheroes have caused various contradictions and conflicts because they couldn't play politics, and were used as guns by others and then thrown away.

Even if it's a smart person with high IQ, it's not necessarily able to play. Because politics requires not only IQ, but also many things. A person must simultaneously satisfy being excellent in both EQ and IQ, having strong observation ability, daring to make judgments when things happen, having endurance, and simultaneously being able to put down face, endure humiliation, and be born in a good era and have a certain amount of luck, to be able to flourish in the political arena.

Some people might feel that some politicians don't meet this standard at all. But that is actually just an appearance, because acting as a clown to make everyone laugh is also one of the basic skills of politicians. The key is to see whether he has obtained enough benefits—not what he promised, but the benefits he truly wants.

In short, this kind of thing is really not something that can be figured out by just picking someone out. Even if the talent is suitable, it still needs decades of training. Therefore, congressmen rarely come from small places, and even if there are, they are pushed up by some people on purpose as targets, and they themselves can decide very little.

It is precisely because places like Great Canyon Town are too small, too closed, and too backward that they don't have the environment to train politicians who can fight on the big stage. No matter how talented a genius is, if he is thrown here, it is very difficult to walk out.

This will lead to the fact that even if it is old Burger, or someone else, as long as he is still trapped in the town, it is very difficult for him to interfere in things at a higher level by his own wisdom.

Take the water pollution incident, even if you can possess, there is a lot of attention to it. First of all, you have to possess someone to investigate this matter; this person's identity cannot be too high, otherwise it might be regarded as releasing a signal, which might lead to the deterioration of the situation; but it cannot be too low, otherwise you will be beaten to death by a heavy punch, wasting time.

It is best to find someone related to this industry who can legitimately come into contact with the industry related to discharge or tap water. After possessing this person, you cannot go directly to those politicians. Not to mention that they are all human spirits, and they know what you are going to pull as soon as you lift your butt; running to them to perform is completely throwing yourself into the net; mainly because this piece of fat meat is watched by peers, and if you reveal a little bit of horse's feet, you will be dragged down, and then you will fail.

Such lurking requires time, and you must carefully clarify the character context, figure out the time nodes, peel the cocoon to restore the truth of the whole thing, find the most critical person in the event, and then you can proceed to the next step.

After investigating clearly, you have to find a way to stop it, which is even more difficult. Because if there is any error or omission in the previous step, it might become an explorer of the Pacific Ocean.

Even if the previous step has been perfect, there may be various unexpected situations, and finally fail.

This is not an exaggeration, because all the political system construction carried out by the federal society for so many years is to prevent this situation. And after continuous optimization for so many years, it can basically be achieved: no one can find out anything, even if you are the person involved, don't even think about knowing anything other than what you know.

This is like a rule monster story, this huge monster that devours people, as long as it finds anyone making sounds that don't belong to them, or knowing things they shouldn't know, then the feeding organ will send people into their powerful stomach at the fastest speed, and digest them without leaving anything.

The agent knows very well that the real events that happened in Utah in history are already shocking enough, and are the prototypes of many horror movies in the United States. But these things didn't stir up any splash in international public opinion, just because the digestive system of the United States is too efficient, from living people to the residue after excretion, it only takes a winter night.

He also understands that if the evil spirit really tried to stop it, then he could still live well until now, entirely because his superpower is really strong enough. Otherwise, he would have to be treated like Yego.

Thinking of this, the agent suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He looked at Bingo and asked: "How did old Burger die?"

"Why suddenly ask this?"

"I just thought of a possibility." The agent said, "Old Burger has no grave in his hometown, could it be because he didn't die here at all, but died in other places. And everyone who knew about this was threatened and silenced. Therefore, old Burger, who was the leader of the sect at the time, had no monument and no grave, and was desolate after death."
