Finding Someone

This is a private mansion on the outskirts of Z city.

Located in a remote area far from the city center, it's unclear which wealthy person used it for a vacation, but recently this private mansion changed owners.

The new homeowner is Luo Suyī.

On the surface, he is a rich second-generation who does nothing and idles his days away. In reality, he is a member of a Supernatural Forum and a Ghost Tamer who comes into contact with all kinds of paranormal events that ordinary people can never imagine.

However, as one of the Ghost Tamer a very low survival rate, Luo Suyī was still somewhat self-aware.

Instead of going it alone, he made friends with several like-minded people. This way, no matter what happened, their safety would be greatly improved if they acted together.

But Luo Suyī, who has only been in Z City for a little over ten days, plans to leave tonight.

"Pack your things, we can't stay in Z City anymore, we have to leave." Luo Suyī hurriedly as soon as he finished a phone call, rushing back to the living room.

There weren't many people in the living room: a middle-aged man and a young woman who looked to be only around twenty years old.

They were Luo Suyī's friends and companions.

Huang Fei was watching TV on his phone when he looked up in surprise and said, "What? Leaving at this hour? It's past midnight, I'm about to go to sleep. What's so urgent? Can't you wait until tomorrow?"

"I also wanted to wait until tomorrow, but time doesn't allow it. The situation in Z City has worsened. According to the information I've received, it seems that the Ghost-faced Tong Qian was rescued from the Caesar Hotel by Yang Jian, but what's worse is that the two Ghost Tamer, Guo Fan and Feng Quan, seem to be trapped inside," Luo Suyī said.

Huang Fei said, "You're leaving just because of this? There's no need for that. Yang Jian from Dachang City has been transferred here, so the situation here will be resolved sooner or later. After all, we're Zhao Jianguo's reinforcements. It's already not good for us to just hide here watching TV and playing games, and now we're running away. If Zhao Jianguo finds out, we won't be able to explain ourselves."

"If we offend Headquarters too much and they issue an arrest warrant, we're finished."

The Headquarters in Asia wields considerable power, and even these civilian Ghost Tamer have to show them some respect. They can't be completely disregardful, otherwise, with a single order, their good days will immediately come to an end.

"I was quite happy to stay in Z City for a few days before, but I can't anymore. You see, Yang Jian came to Z City and Tong Qian was rescued, which should be a good thing, but why didn't Yang Jian immediately go to support his teammates Guo Fan and Feng Quan when they were trapped?"

"Such a powerful person could suppress the ghosts inside the three of us in a single encounter. Logically speaking, such a top-tier Ghost Tamer should have easily resolved this supernatural event, which is only classified as B-class incident. However, the matter remains unresolved."

"You're overthinking it. Yang Jian has only been here a short time, less than a day, to be precise. Even someone who's about to hang themselves needs a moment to catch their breath. You're not afraid of him and are deliberately trying to avoid him, are you?" Huang Fei glanced at him.

Luo Suyī immediately laughed and said, "Are you kidding? Me, afraid of him? If I hadn't been careless last time, how could I have been restricted by him? It's normal to be caught off guard and get the first move when there's a lack of information. I think if I, Yang Jian, had made the first move, it definitely wouldn't have been so easy."

"I think we should give Zhao Jianguo some face. If we leave like this, it will be difficult to handle the matter next time. I don't want to be wanted nationwide. If my relatives find out, I will never be able to face anyone again." Huang Fei shook his head. He was quite composed and would not do something so offensive unless there were special circumstances.

"If we don't leave now, we might get caught up in this paranormal event. I have a feeling this is definitely not an ordinary paranormal event. The fact that Zhao Jianguo even transferred Yang Jian here means that things must be unusual." Luo Suyī, "By the way, I'm not really afraid of that Yang Jian."

"You're just scared." Lin Luomei, who was standing next to her, couldn't speak, but spoke through a megaphone.

Luo Suyī his eyes. "I'm not going to argue with you. Anyway, pack your things and leave today. Trust me, nothing will happen. We still need to figure out how to solve the problem of the vengeful ghost's resurgence. In the meantime, we must avoid any particularly dangerous supernatural events as much as possible. This is for our own safety. Besides, someone is in charge of the Z City incident. It has nothing to do with us. There's no need for us to stay here just to save face."

Although his thoughts were somewhat selfish, it must be said that his intuition was still very sharp, and he had already vaguely sensed that something was wrong in Z City.

But just as the three of them were talking, the doorbell rang outside the house.

"Ding-dong~!"

A crisp ringtone came from the monitor.

As soon as the ringtone sounded, Huang Fei, who was looking at his phone on the sofa, Lin Luomei, who was listening to music, and Luo Suyī all immediately changed their expressions and became alert.

The time displayed is 1:30 AM.

At this point, there wasn't a soul in their suburban villa, not even a dog, so the doorbell was unlikely to ring.

"Ding-dong!" The doorbell rang again.

"You all stay alert, I'll go check it out." Luo Suyī frowned and went upstairs.

You can see the situation next to the courtyard downstairs through the glass on the second floor.

But when he scanned the outside several times, he didn't find anyone outside the house; there wasn't a soul in sight.

"No need to look anymore, the person is here." However, a sudden voice came from a corner of the hall.

A young, somewhat immature man walked out from the corner, his face grim, stepping on the floor.

"Yang Jian?"

When they saw this person's appearance, Luo Suyī, Huang Fei, and Lin Luomei were all startled.

They still vividly remembered what happened during their last meeting in Dachang City.

That greeting left them with so much fear that they still can't forget it to this day.

"How... how did you find us?" Luo Suyī ran down from the second floor, his voice tinged with nervousness.

Yang Jian, "It took me a while to find you, about ten minutes. I thought you were in downtown Z City, but I didn't expect you to be hiding in the suburbs. Judging from your appearance, you don't seem to be planning to get involved in this incident. In that case, what did Zhao Jianguo invite you here for? To be cheerleaders?"

He walked over and casually sat down on the sofa.

"This is our business, it shouldn't concern you. We only agreed to come to Z City to provide support, we didn't say how we would provide support," Luo Suyī.

Yang Jian said, "If you don't want to provide support, you don't have to. That's understandable. There's no need to make excuses. There's nothing to be ashamed of. Actually, I didn't want to come to Z City either, but I had no choice."

Huang Fei carefully lit a cigarette; "Yang Jian, want a smoke?"

"No."

"I wonder what brings you here this time? We don't think we've offended you in any way since we left Dachang City last time," Huang Fei said with an awkward smile, looking somewhat uneasy.

After all, given Yang Jian's abilities, if he were to make a move, the three of them would likely have a very difficult time leaving this place alive.

Yang Jian, "I'm not good at polite talk, so I'll just say what I really mean. This time, the supernatural incident has run into some trouble. There's a ghost trying to play hide-and-seek with me. It's hiding very well, and I'd like to ask this beautiful lady for a favor and help me find it. You don't need to do anything; I'll handle it myself."

"I refuse," Luo Suyī said immediately before Yang Jian could finish speaking.

"Oh, not going to offer any conditions or something? Such a straightforward refusal." Yang Jian glanced at him.

Luo Suyī said seriously, "We know your abilities. Even you have run into trouble, so this matter is definitely not that simple. Even if we go to help, we might still get caught up in it. Therefore, we can't help you with this. Lin Luomei has only controlled one ghost, and she can only use her abilities a limited number of times. She is not far from the resurgence of the vengeful ghost."

Yang Jian smiled and said, "It's fine if you don't want to help. I won't force you. After all, I'm not the kind of person who's unreasonable. However, I need to use the ghost inside Lin Luomei's body. I need its abilities right now."

"This is not a request, it's an order."

After speaking, he glanced at Lin Luomei beside him, his assertive attitude self-evident.
