Yang Jian's Rescue
Yang Jian's mood was rather somber when he suddenly received a call from Feng Quan.
Because both he and Guo Fan, who sent the distress call earlier, may have problems, or at least are no longer trustworthy. However, Yang Jian himself doesn't know or can know whether they have problems, since the matter of altering memories cannot be verified.
"You should be dead." Yang Jian the phone while leading the others to the lobby on the first floor.
It's safe here for now.
As for the carpets and floor tiles that might have contained their footprints, they were transported by the Ghost Domain and buried hundreds of meters underground.
It doesn't need to be buried too deep; just make sure the ghost doesn't step on it.
Feng Quan's voice continued, "I did almost die, but I survived by sheer luck. I had been keeping track of your location, and I started calling you as soon as you appeared in the hotel. Unfortunately, you went into that place with no signal, and I thought you had died there, just like us."
"You've been there too?" Yang Jian's eyes flickered slightly. "You saw that ghost?"
"Even if we hadn't seen it, things wouldn't have turned out like this. I suspect this place is a trap. Something is luring us Ghost Tamer here to die. That tall male corpse is wandering around this hotel. Once its killing pattern is triggered, no one can withstand it, including you." Feng Quan's voice revealed a hint of fear.
He was one of the oldest Ghost Tamer, even more senior than the deceased Zhou Zheng. He was already dealing with supernatural events when Yang Jian was still carefree and innocent in school.
The fear in his voice was enough to prove just how terrifying the tall male corpse holding the woodcutter's knife must have been.
Yang Jian asked seriously, "So you survived one of that ghost's attacks?"
"I'd say it's a stretch, but the price will be incredibly high. If you don't take me away from here, I'll die soon. You must have seen the ghostly mist outside, right?" Feng Quan said. "You must have been affected by the ghostly mist when you went in and out, but that thing hasn't fully awakened yet, otherwise the area covered by the ghostly mist would definitely be much larger than this."
"If you haven't fully recovered, it means the ghostly mist forcibly left your body, rather than escaping after you recovered?" Yang Jian immediately guessed Feng Quan's current condition.
There must be a physical disability.
It was because of that ghost's slash that the ghost mist went out of control.
"Yes, you're right," Feng Quan said.
Just as Yang Jian was about to ask some more questions, another voice came through his phone. It was Zhao Jianguo from Headquarters: "Yang Jian, this is Zhao Jianguo. You need to get Feng Quan out of here immediately. The Z City 'Head Balloon Incident is over. There have been no new deaths since you entered the hotel."
"You've done a great job this time, I should thank you properly."
What?
Has the Head Balloon Incident ended?
Yang Jian was taken aback by these words. He hadn't even dealt with it yet, so how could it be over already? Could there be a mistake?
Or perhaps Zhao Jianguo made a mistake.
"I've resolved part of the situation in Z City, but it's not completely over yet. It's too early for you to say that now," Yang Jian replied.
"I know the situation is complicated, but the more complicated it is, the more important it is to ensure your safety. You are the only one who is still able to move around, so I hope you won't refuse his rescue because of some personal grudge with Feng Quan." Zhao Jianguo's phone call was clearly out of concern that Yang Jian would refuse to help and let Feng Quan die in the Caesar Hotel.
Although Yang Jian is very capable and adept at handling paranormal events, Zhao Jianguo understands that this is a flaw in Yang Jian, which is why he has always been concerned about it.
"If you rescue Feng Quan, I'll give you a share of the credit."
Yang Jian's eyes flickered slightly. He thought for a moment, then said, "Since you've put it this way, it would indeed be unreasonable for me not to go and rescue him. However, before I rescue him, I need to get Xiong Wenwen out of here to ensure his safety."
"You make the decision. You understand the situation better than I do, and I won't interfere with your impromptu decision." Zhao Jianguo breathed a slight sigh of relief.
As long as Yang Jian is willing to save people, everything will be fine.
Although this guy can be dangerous at times, he has one redeeming quality: he's relatively trustworthy and not one of those deadbeats who spout empty promises.
"Alright, I'm getting started here, you can disconnect now," Yang Jian.
Zhao Jianguo immediately disconnected the connection.
At this moment, Feng Quan also overheard their conversation. He said, "Zhao Jianguo is reluctant to let someone who has controlled two ghosts fall here. Yang Jian, you won't lose anything by helping me out. After all, we've known each other for a long time."
"An old acquaintance? You almost got me killed last time with your careless advice about Huanggang Village. If I hadn't been worried about your vengeful ghost resurrecting and not being able to handle it, you would have been dead long ago." Yang Jian sneered, "Wait, I'll come back to save you."
After saying that, he first sent Xiong Wenwen, Lin Luomei, and Luo Suyī out of the Ghost Mist.
"Don't leave here for now. Z City isn't safe right now. I have another operation later, and I'll need your help." Yang Jian glanced at Luo Suyī and Lin Luomei.
Luo Suyī somewhat mournful face, "Can I refuse?"
"After this is over, I will give my spot to control the second ghost to Lin Luomei. This is the reward I promised her," Yang Jian. "You don't have to help, but didn't you say you wanted to protect Lin Luomei? I won't force you to stay out of it at this time. It's up to you."
He could tell that Luo Suyī and Lin Luomei had feelings for each other, but he wasn't interested in knowing whether it was true love.
"You mean what you say?" Luo Suyī asked hastily. "Are you really willing to give the spot to Lin Luomei?"
"Of course, it's useless for me to hold onto it, and I might need your help in the future. I don't want to see such a useful Ghost Tamer die, otherwise where will I find one in the future?" Yang Jian honestly expressed his thoughts.
There is no need to hide it.
They couldn't refuse because of their own request.
"Alright, then I'll give you another hand." Luo Suyī gritted his teeth and said, "For the girl's future."
Lin Luomei, who couldn't speak, was immediately moved. She said through the media player, "Although you moved me, you're sometimes not helpful at all. You just yell and scream when it matters. You're far inferior to Yang Jian."
"." Luo Suyī.
"Keep an eye on Xiong Wenwen and wait here. I wasn't on guard against anyone before I came. The ghost's identity is probably Tong Qian from the hospital. The ghost's infiltration of Z City is deeper than I thought. Also, take good care of this corpse. She's my classmate. Don't kill her."
Yang Jian gave a word of advice, then patted Xiong Wenwen's head to comfort her, put down Zhao Lei's body on his back, and turned to enter the ghostly mist.
As he stepped into the ghostly mist, he found himself unconsciously gripping the blood-stained, eerie newspaper he had obtained earlier.
The paper said this thing could alter a person's memory, so now's a good time to try it out.
Anyway, I don't trust Feng Quan, so this guy will be a good test subject. If it works, then the plan to control the two ghost faces will be feasible, and we'll have another potential subordinate in the future.
If it fails, there's nothing to lose.
Zhao Jianguo asked him to save the person, but he didn't tell him how to do it.
In any case, all that matters is that Feng Quan survives.
