Yang Jian left Hongfa Temple.

He didn't get the answer he wanted, but he was certain of one thing: the place where the White Bone Tree was imprisoned and the three-meter-tall black shadow had disappeared, but they hadn't revived in Dachang City.

But he had a premonition that somewhere in this world, this ghost had already appeared.

An unimaginable horror is brewing.

But the world is so big, who knows which place will be unlucky enough to encounter that damned thing resurrecting.

Just like the existence of Ghost Infant, it initially poses little threat, hidden in a large city where its presence is barely perceptible. However, once it fully revives, it becomes a devastating catastrophe.

"I can't worry about that. In a world where evil spirits have resurrected, the dangers are far more than just that thing. This world is like a dilapidated house, leaking air and water everywhere. It's enough to take care of my own little corner of the world right now," Yang Jian thought to himself.

He wasn't a very ambitious person. From the moment he became Ghost Tamer, all he ever thought about was surviving, living a good life.

If he can't survive, then he will choose to die peacefully.

Yang Jian wasn't too worried about what the future held. He believed that as long as he didn't die, managing Dachang City shouldn't be difficult.

When Yang Jian returned to the residential area, he found a military vehicle parked at the entrance.

I don't know when Zhao Jianguo came to visit.

He was sitting in the living room drinking tea with two Ghost Tamer, seemingly waiting for Yang Jian's arrival.

Yang Jian paused slightly when he saw Zhao Jianguo, then said, "Captain Zhao, when did you have time to visit my home? Is there some official business you need to discuss with me?"

Upon seeing Yang Jian, Zhao Jianguo immediately put down his teacup and said with a smile, "I've tried to contact you several times, but you always say you're unavailable when I call. So, I had no choice but to come in person. I hope I haven't caused you any trouble."

"It won't cause me any trouble, as long as it doesn't bring me any trouble," Yang Jian. "People like Captain Zhao usually don't bring good news when they visit, do they?"

"Haha, you can't say that. There is indeed some good news this time, but let's not talk about it yet. Take a look at this first." Zhao Jianguo took out a document bag from the side.

Inside was an autopsy report and several photos of the deceased.

"Didn't you want to investigate Zhao Kaiming last time? There's news. Here's the latest file report, take a look."

Yang Jian took the document with suspicion, glanced at it a few times, and immediately frowned. "Gun wound, died from excessive blood loss? Cause of death... suicide? Zhao Kaiming committed suicide."

He could hardly believe it.

Zhao Kaiming was quite a character; he schemed against everyone and raised a scourge like a Ghost Infant, only to receive a death report a few days later.

"Suicide by shooting himself, with all the witnesses and evidence present, there's nothing suspicious," Zhao Jianguo said. "The body is currently preserved in an ice coffin. Would you like to see it?"

"No need, I have no interest in dead people," Yang Jian; "But I don't really believe someone like him would shoot himself."

"The reason is unclear, but something very strange happened around him."

Zhao Jianguo suddenly lowered his voice and said, "I investigated Zhao Kaiming's family situation and found that his wife, daughter, parents, and relatives all died mysteriously one after another within a year."

"There were no wounds, no autopsy report, and no death certificate. I think Zhao Kaiming used his position to delete this information. Moreover, the voice communication records I listened to between him and the communications officer also confirm that his family member has indeed passed away."

Yang Jian, "I know that his entire family is dead."

"That's why this news is so strange. Do you know that Zhao Kaiming reported his death to the police? It was his uncle, a man who had been dead for a full six months. And after investigation, it turned out that not only Zhao Kaiming's uncle, but also his parents, wife, and children, who should have died mysteriously, all appeared in the report." Zhao Jianguo said.

"How come Zhao Kaiming succeeded and his whole family was resurrected?" Yang Jian's expression shifted slightly.

That ghost actually could bring the dead back to life.

Unbelievable.

Zhao Jianguo said, "It was him. His family, who had been missing for nearly a year, all reappeared and came back to life, but he died. Although he committed suicide by shooting himself, I can't be completely sure if there were any supernatural elements involved."

"Whether there are supernatural events or not, Zhao Kaiming's death is the best outcome. He was a very dangerous person. He was even willing to sacrifice the entire Dachang City to resurrect his family. Even if he didn't commit suicide, I would have done it for him."

Yang Jian said calmly.

If it weren't for the time he wasted guarding that starving ghost's corpse a few days ago, he would have gone to settle accounts with Zhao Kaiming long ago.

Later, Dachang City was taken over, and Yang Jian lost his best opportunity to take action.

After all, killing someone in front of the Ghost Tamer Headquarters is a very foolish thing to do; if you're going to kill someone, you should at least make sure there are no witnesses.

"Zhao Kaiming was indeed a dangerous man. It's good that he died. Otherwise, we would have sent people to arrest him, and if he had been convicted, he would have been executed." Zhao Jianguo also hated this man very much.

If he hadn't indulged the Ghost Infant, this S-class supernatural event would never have happened.

"The person is dead, so this matter is over for now. There's still one thing we don't know what it is," Yang Jian.

"There's an important meeting tomorrow, and I really hope you can attend. The paranormal events in Dachang City are over, and the remaining rescue work is no longer our responsibility. The other Ghost Tamer also need to go back to their posts, so there's an impromptu meeting. The main purpose is for you to introduce yourself to the other people and get acquainted with them."

"Of course, there are also some work reports. After all, this incident involves too much, and some questions can only be answered by you personally. Afterwards, there will be some significant rewards from above for your contributions."

"I'll inevitably have to make a trip to J City then."

Yang Jian, "Is it that troublesome?"

"It's just a formality, consider it a trip. Now that you're in charge of Dachang City, some customs still need to be followed, and you should also personally fight for some benefits."

Zhao Jianguo said with a smile, "In short, this is much easier than solving paranormal events."

Yang Jian thought about it and agreed. Since he had already chosen to join the Headquarters, he should naturally make an appearance.

"I understand. I'll consider going to J City after I've finished dealing with some things in Dachang City."

J City is the capital, and it's probably the safest city in Asia right now, bar none.

"Okay, then I won't bother you any longer. It'll be at the city gymnasium at eight o'clock tomorrow," Zhao Jianguo said.

"I will be there on time," Yang Jian.

After seeing Zhao Jianguo off, he vaguely felt that he was now being closely watched by people from all walks of life.

Although it was subtle, it was clear from Zhao Jianguo's personal visit and invitation to visit J City.

That's correct.

Yang Jian has now demonstrated unprecedented value. After all, he is someone who solves an S-class supernatural event all by himself. In the circle of Ghost Tamer, this is probably already a well-known fact.

Nobody wants to see a grassroots hero rise to power!

For some reason, as Yang Jian looked at the photo of Zhao Kaiming's death on the table, he recalled a sentence he had said to him the last time they met.

I vaguely feel that being too famous isn't necessarily a good thing.

Suddenly going from an unknown Ghost Tamer to being famous in the global Ghost Tamer community can bring countless benefits, but also endless troubles.

"Let's take it one step at a time. There's no point in thinking too much." Yang Jian put away the death report, preparing to put it away.

While he was at home, as usual, studying the changes in his body...

Several uninvited guests appeared outside the Guangjiang Residential Area.

"Does that Ghost Eye Yang Jian live in this neighborhood?"

A tall, handsome young man stood on the roadside across the river, gazing at the scene.

"The information is accurate. Although the Asian branch is trying its best to cover it up, some basic information can still be found. After all, it's all publicly available. The information on Ghost Tamer isn't kept secret internally," a companion said.

"Shall we go and pay them a visit?"

The young man thought for a moment and said, "We should indeed pay a visit, but not now."
