Ring, ring, ring!
A phone began to ring.
Inside an apartment in an upscale residential complex somewhere in the city.
Jiang Shangbai had only been home for a short while after a busy day. He had thought he could finally relax. Today, he had not stopped for a moment while dealing with the Ghost Painting Incident. It was not just him; the city's three persons in charge, some people from Headquarters, and all the Ghost Tamers attending training had been involved.
Fortunately, most of the signs had been suppressed. So far, everything had been resolved without any real danger.
There had been some casualties, but they were within an acceptable range.
After all, what supernatural incident did not kill people?
"Hello."
Jiang Shangbai picked up the phone. When he saw the caller, he immediately frowned, displeased. "What is it? It's so late. Whatever it is can wait until tomorrow. I need to rest."
"President Jiang, something happened," came the voice on the other end. "A few hours ago, Manager Fei suddenly jumped to his death. And Manager Fei's bodyguard, Zhang Jian, has also gone missing."
"What?" Jiang Shangbai's expression changed drastically. "How could something like this happen out of nowhere? Have you found the exact cause?"
Manager Fei had jumped to his death?
He did not believe it at all. And Zhang Jian had vanished too. Something was obviously very wrong here.
"We still don't know. We're investigating," the caller said.
"Find out immediately," Jiang Shangbai said grimly.
"Understood."
After hanging up, Jiang Shangbai looked out the window, unease rising in his heart.
At a time like this, Zhang Jian disappearing and Manager Fei committing suicide were absolutely bad signs. Perhaps some force had been plotting for a long time and was preparing to make a move against his circle
