Seeing the gaunt patient before him, Yang Jian recalled the first time he met Zhou Zheng.
It looks just like that.
But Zhou Zheng endured much more pain than him; that pain had seeped into his very bones, and it was more of a numbness from being tormented for too long.
"Compared to others, he's quite lucky," Yang Jian said, looking at the patient.
Although it was an experiment, this person was able to escape the torment of the Ghost Infant and return to normal.
At this moment, Wang Xiaoming and the other staff members silently left the operating room and went to the observation room next door.
They could see what was happening here through the glass.
Of course, any danger can be addressed with timely evacuation.
"Huh? What are you doing standing so far away?" Yang Jian.
Wang Xiaoming said, "You don't need to worry about the necessary precautions. Just be ready to activate the emergency plan at any time. If anything happens, immediately seal off the operating room."
"There's an iron box under the operating table, made of gold. Once you find the location of Seventh Street, immediately imprison this Ghost Infant. If you can't do that, retreat immediately."
Yang Jian's face darkened.
This clearly shows they don't really believe they can handle this monster by themselves.
"Young man, don't be nervous. It's just a painless abortion. It'll be over in less than a minute, very quickly," Yang Jian said, looking at the patient.
He was a young man in his early twenties, but his face was withered and he looked somewhat old.
"Brother, are you reliable? Am I going to kick the bucket?" the young man said with a mournful face.
Yang Jian, "If you're really worried, I can give you anesthesia?"
"Low doses of anesthetic drugs cannot anesthetize this type of patient, possibly due to the presence of the Ghost Infant, which has led to some drug resistance. Large doses of anesthetic drugs may be useful, but they can easily cause irreversible damage to the human body, so I only injected him with a sedative," Wang Xiaoming said earnestly from a distance.
"Brother, I don't want to die, please save me," the young man pleaded again.
"Try your best," Yang Jian. "But you'd better close your eyes. If you can't, then whatever you see, hear, or witness afterward, don't shout or scream. It will affect my work. Of course, I don't care if it does affect you, since you might be the one who dies anyway, understand?"
"I understand." The young man looked like he was about to cry.
"Start."
Yang Jian did not use the Ghost Domain, because he could not use Ghost Domain if he wanted to retrieve the Ghost Infant.
The suppression of the Ghost Eye forced him to choose only one ability to use.
Perhaps this situation will improve as the vengeful spirit gradually revives.
Moment.
Yang Jian suddenly reached his left hand through the patient's clothes and directly into his bulging belly.
Ah~!
A sharp, eerie scream instantly filled the entire operating room. Even Wang Xiaoming in the observation room couldn't help but frown, and the staff next to him covered their ears in fear.
But the voice seemed to come from the depths of my heart; covering my ears was of no use at all.
"A very clever approach. By using the Ghost Domain to affect only his left hand, he can reach into the patient's abdomen without touching the patient's skin." Wang Xiaoming observed Yang Jian's actions and couldn't help but admire Yang Jian's method.
For a high school senior to be able to wield the power of a vengeful spirit to this extent in such a short time is quite remarkable.
"But he shouldn't be able to catch the Ghost Infant, so how can we solve this?" Wang Xiaoming had a second question, but when he saw a tall, black ghostly figure standing up behind Yang Jian, he understood everything.
A headless ghostly figure stood behind him, exuding a cold and eerie aura. The two were less than a meter apart, but one of the ghostly figures' arms had merged with Yang Jian's arm.
"A second ghost? This ghost seems quite special, able to attach itself to a person without a physical body, similar to ghost possession? However, this should be extremely dangerous. A person possessed by a ghost can no longer be considered human; calling it a ghost would be more appropriate. Yang Jian dared not let this black shadow completely attach itself to his body; he only controlled one of his arms."
Wang Xiaoming nodded secretly.
This bold yet cautious approach aligns with his scientific spirit; Ghost Tamer should act this way, maximizing the exploitation of ghosts' abilities within their control.
Unfortunately, many Ghost Tamer only use it passively to save their lives, and very few people attempt to master this ability.
"Got it." Yang Jian's expression suddenly changed as he felt his hand grasp the Ghost Infant inside the belly.
Cold, soft, with a rotting feel, like a dead infant.
"Get out of here." His arm went straight through the patient's body, even through the operating table, and then with a thud, something suddenly appeared and fell to the ground, which he held firmly in place.
A dark blue-green, grotesque infant struggled on the ground with a force far greater than that of a well-trained adult. The Ghost Infant's black fingernails tore through the floor tiles, producing a sharp, piercing sound.
However, this force did not harm Yang Jian in the slightest when it landed on his left hand.
A part of the ghostly shadow was attached to his arm; no matter how fierce the Ghost Infant was, it was impossible for it to eliminate the ghostly shadow.
Furthermore, this Ghost Infant is not the true source, but merely a derivative product similar to Ghost Slave.
"It's a success." The people in the observation room watched with trepidation.
Although they were mentally strong, they still felt a chill run down their spines when they saw Detective Yang pull a live baby out of a person's stomach.
They had never seen a real ghost before in their lives.
"Very good." Wang Xiaoming also showed a slight smile, but the smile quickly disappeared.
Yang Jian's abilities were indeed very powerful and outstanding, but his own younger brother died because of these abilities.
"Next, I'm going to release this thing and lock it in the Ghost Domain. You'd better be careful, there's a slight delay. Maybe that little bit of time will be enough for this ghost to kill someone." Yang Jian grabbed the Ghost Infant's arm, lifted it up, and then looked at Wang Xiaoming.
"Bring the patient out first and check all vital signs immediately," Wang Xiaoming ordered.
Soon, two staff members entered the operating room with trepidation and hurriedly brought the young man out. They didn't dare to look at Yang Jian, much less at the strange baby in his arms.
"It's ready now," Wang Xiaoming said.
"Aren't you planning to avoid this?" Yang Jian.
Wang Xiaoming said, "No need. I believe I can react at this distance, unless you want me to die."
"Your words are really a bit like trying to kill someone's spirit. If something really happens, you'll blame me. Liu Xiaoyu, did you hear that? It's not that I didn't try to persuade him, it's that Wang Xiaoming is asking for trouble." Yang Jian said with a smile.
Hearing this from a satellite-guided mobile phone that maintains 24-hour call availability, Liu Xiaoyu didn't know how to respond.
"No need to ask for permission from above, let's begin now," Wang Xiaoming said.
"Of course." Yang Jian glanced at him, then ignored him and casually tossed the Ghost Infant forward.
The Ghost Infant landed on the ground and quickly got up. Its limbs were eerily stretched out, and it crawled rapidly along the wall in a strange shape, leaving behind a series of dark blue handprints.
Without any hesitation, it immediately rushed towards Wang Xiaoming in the observation room.
Yang Jian, who was closest, seemed to be outside its attack range.
"So fast, Professor, watch out!" The security guard next to him was so frightened that he immediately drew his gun.
"This thing is useless, put it away." Wang Xiaoming gestured and said, "It doesn't mean anything else, it just wants to eat me. After the Ghost Infant is born, it will be in a state of hunger. It will randomly eat anyone it can see nearby. The best way to avoid being eaten by the first stage Ghost Infant is to get out of its sight."
"In the second stage, the Ghost Infant grows into a child and begins to make choices, so it will prioritize eating anyone it has come into contact with. When facing Ghost Infant in this stage, you must avoid seeing or touching it."
"That means don't see it, don't touch it."
"As for the third stage, the pattern hasn't been figured out yet, so we can only make a rough guess," Wang Xiaoming said calmly.
At this moment, the Ghost Infant had already crawled onto the tempered glass in front of it.
Separated only by a thin layer of glass, the Ghost Infant's dark, pupil-less eyes stared at Wang Xiaoming with an eerie and fierce gaze.
"Click, click, click~!"
The glass window in front of me began to crack rapidly.
The bluish-black hand and footprints left on it seemed capable of corroding any object.
The glass shattered quickly.
The Ghost Infant lunged at Wang Xiaoming.
However, at that moment, a red light shone out from the operating room and instantly enveloped the Ghost Infant.
The Ghost Infant that lunged at Wang Xiaoming vanished instantly before it could even make contact with him.
At this moment, Yang Jian stepped out. "You're really bold, aren't you? You didn't even try to hide?"
"I told you, I won't die as long as you don't let the Ghost Infant eat me."
Wang Xiaoming remained calm and said, "The Ghost Domain opens in less than half a second. Once the Ghost Infant is trapped Ghost Domain, it will be at your mercy. I have studied the first stage of the Ghost Infant, and it is absolutely impossible for it to leave the Ghost Domain unless you release it voluntarily."
"Your research on Ghost Infant is very thorough. What do you think is the pattern of the third stage of Ghost Infant? If not looking at them or touching them can avoid being killed, does the third stage require another condition?" Yang Jian.
"You want to know?" Wang Xiaoming asked.
