Feng Qian

Biodata

History

New Yan City incidents

Feng Qian initially dismissed Li Hua’s warnings about ghosts while investigating Tian Tian’s disappearance. In the Tian family apartment, he and his officers encountered ghostly versions of her parents and Tian Tian’s corpse. A mysterious woman destroyed the ghosts after their attempts to escape failed 366 367.

After transferring to the Investigation Bureau, Feng led the response to Luo Dian’s rampage. Gunfire initially reduced Luo Dian to a mangled corpse, but the Ghost Blade revived him. The woman who had saved Feng before intervened again; Feng learned that she was Bai Jingjing. He later recognized her face in sketches based on a witness’s account of the events preceding Luo Dian’s mutation 371 372 373 376.

Mirror World and Lucky Casino

Feng and an investigation team were dragged into the Mirror World while questioning an impostor posing as Wu Jiangu. Feng later emerged as the sole survivor. His survival record helped him rise to an operations captaincy and prompted Director Mu Xingrui to select him to test the Lucky Casino’s Human-Faced Die 381 391 393.

Inside the casino, Feng staked ten years of his lifespan against supernatural power and won three dice games. He returned after eight hours with golden eyes capable of paralyzing people. His altered manner and enthusiasm for further gambling alarmed Mu Xingrui 393 394.

Jing City and subsequent missions

Feng survived the Investigation Bureau headquarters massacre by hiding in a restroom. During Bai Jingjing’s later attack on Jing City, he used his eyes to protect officials from skeletons, though he could not stop Bai herself. He and Wen Jingyan subsequently rescued civilians and organized survivors as the black fog spread 398 408 414.

Feng accompanied Wen into Starlight Cinema to rescue Du Yan and Su Yu. After escaping its layered movie world, the group reached a department store, where Feng pulled Du Yan and Su Yu across a widening crack in Wen’s supernatural path. Feng later joined Wen and Du Yan in Mad Village, where they escaped amid conflicts between its ghosts 426 427 431 434.

Erasure and the safe house

Feng discovered that Fierce Ghosts had escaped the Bureau’s containment rooms and confronted Director Cheng Linzhou, who was releasing them to form a defensive line against “Erasure.” Feng later entered Cheng’s fortified safe house, where his apparent good luck earned him a reputation as a lucky charm 445 448 449.

Cheng monitored Feng and connected his fortunate incidents to damage elsewhere in the safe house. After the Imperial Seal cracked when Feng steadied himself against a nearby doorframe, Cheng accused him of drawing on the fortune of the groups around him, including the nation. Feng rejected the accusation 449.

Appearance

Before visiting the Lucky Casino, Feng had dark-brown pupils. Afterward, they acquired a flowing metallic-gold sheen 393.

• His voice gained an eerie, multidirectional quality, and he developed an unsettling habit of staring at people 394.
• His examination showed slowed metabolism, sharply reduced cellular activity and widespread cell death, resembling a living corpse 394.

Personality

Feng was initially skeptical of the supernatural, repeatedly assuring himself that ghosts were superstition even as he faced the motionless Tian parents. Under pressure, he could act decisively: he shot the apparitions, organized an attempted escape and later ordered his officers to retreat from Luo Dian 366 367 372.

After the Mirror World incident, Feng became sarcastic and less concerned with professional appearances. A doctor diagnosed him with post-traumatic stress disorder, while Feng saw his changed attitude as a return to his more primal self. Winning at the casino amplified his appetite for gambling, and he promoted it to others partly to reduce the chance that the Bureau would send him back 393 394 399.

Feng values his own survival and is wary of unnecessary risks, but he also rescued civilians during the Jing City disaster and shared scarce medicine with them. His distrust of the Bureau’s leadership later extended to inflating expenses, diverting gold and concealing useful information from it 414 428 435.

Abilities & Skills

Koi Constitution

Feng’s exceptional luck repeatedly helps him survive supernatural incidents. The Bureau valued his survival record enough to promote him and assign him to the Lucky Casino test 374 393.

• He survived encounters in which teammates died, including the Mirror World incident 391 393.
• Feng later questioned the origin and possible cost of his luck 445.
• Cheng Linzhou theorized that Feng’s good fortune drew on the fortune of surrounding groups. The evidence led Cheng to accuse Feng, but Feng disputed the claim 449.

Golden Eyes

Feng won his supernatural eyes at the Lucky Casino. His gaze can immobilize targets, but its effectiveness varies with their strength 394 408.

• Feng estimated that an ordinary person could be paralyzed for about five minutes; one laboratory test recorded five minutes and thirty-seven seconds 394 395.
• Test subjects suffered aftereffects: several soldiers later developed weakness, mental disturbances and violent tendencies 395.
• His eyes temporarily immobilized Bai Jingjing’s skeletons, but could not destroy them. Against Bai herself, they produced only slight resistance 408.
• In Mad Village, Feng saw and heard a ghostly procession that his companions could not perceive, though he was unsure whether what he saw was a hallucination 431.

Supernatural resilience

Feng reported no discomfort after using his eyes, unlike Zhang Suyuan, who suffered when using his own power. Fang Zhitu later identified Feng and Wen Jingyan as exceptions to the usual pattern in which frequent use of a Ghost Tamer’s powers shortens their life 395 436.

Equipment and Items

• Pistol — Used against the Tian apparitions, Luo Dian and the impostor posing as Wu Jiangu 367 372 381.
• Human-Faced Die — The Lucky Casino item Feng tested to enter the casino. He later made a convincing replica and secretly retained the die when the Bureau ended the project 393 436.

Relationships

• Bai Jingjing — Saved Feng during the Tian family incident and Luo Dian’s rampage. He later investigated evidence linking her to Luo Dian’s mutation and confronted her during the Jing City disaster 367 373 376 408.
• Wen Jingyan — Fellow Ghost Tamer and frequent mission partner. They rescued civilians together, although Feng became suspicious of Wen’s risk-taking and concealed Wen’s defensive black box from the Bureau 414 432 435.
• Mu Xingrui — Investigation Bureau director who selected Feng for the Lucky Casino test and grew concerned about his changes afterward 393 394.
• Cheng Linzhou — Later Bureau director. Feng distrusted his leadership but joined his safe house; Cheng subsequently accused him of consuming collective fortune 425 445 448 449.
• Du Yan and Su Yu — Investigators Feng helped rescue from Starlight Cinema. Du Yan later accompanied him and Wen into Mad Village 426 427 431.
• Lin Rui — A casino volunteer whose new power Feng concealed; the two secretly took advantage of the Investigation Bureau together 428.
