Suspicion
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, a person flew out of lounge number twelve. The person smashed through the lounge door, rolled several times on the ground, and finally came to a stop by crashing into a wall.
Gao Zhiqiang's body was twisted and deformed in a bizarre posture, with a large chunk of his chest bone caved in, and his mouth and nose filled with blood.
His face was contorted in pain, which nearly made him faint.
But some strange power within his body sustained his life, preventing him from dying after suffering such severe injuries.
"What happened?"
The loud noise attracted the attention of other staff members nearby.
Soon, an alarm went off in the rest area.
"You like to have fun, don't you? What's so fun about being with women? Why don't you play with me instead? There are so many things two men can do together, more than you can imagine. I guarantee you won't be disappointed." A deep, cold voice rang out as Yang Jian walked out of the lounge.
"You're a lunatic too."
Gao Zhiqiang's face was somewhat ferocious. "Is it worth it to attack me for a few unrelated ordinary people? For people like us, let alone bullying a few women, we wouldn't even have the slightest psychological burden if we killed a few people. I was originally planning to have a good talk with you, and we could pretend that nothing happened. Don't push your luck."
Lying on the ground, his body was twisting and turning, and the injury inflicted by Yang Jian's kick was healing in an incredible way.
After twisting a few times, the broken bones miraculously pieced themselves back together, and the blood on his face gradually disappeared from sight. His sunken chest swelled up again like an inflated balloon. Within just a dozen seconds, his body had returned to its previous state.
This is not simply a matter of repairing injuries; it's as if the entire body has been restored to the healthy, undamaged state it was a minute ago.
It's almost like a vengeful ghost rebooting.
Yang Jian frowned slightly upon seeing this. Sure enough, there was a reason why this person could attend the Headquarters meeting today. This alone showed that this person was indeed very special.
"Can't ordinary methods kill you? Looks like I'll have to do something a bit more exciting, like dismembering you. Can your corpse come back to life? If you don't mind, I'd like to try."
Gao Zhiqiang's eyes narrowed slightly.
Is this guy really planning to fight me to the death?
"You need to understand, this is Headquarters. You need to be aware of the trouble this will cause if we fight here. A meeting is about to start, and if things get out of hand, you won't be able to handle it. Besides, aren't you afraid of dying from the resurgence of the vengeful spirit by using its abilities repeatedly? You might not even be able to hold on before you kill me."
Gao Zhiqiang stood up, his face extremely gloomy, but he didn't want to fight this person here.
Fighting between Ghost Tamer benefits neither side, regardless of victory or defeat. Moreover, if his own past actions were revealed, it would have a significant impact.
If possible, he wanted to make peace with this, even if it meant getting kicked by this guy.
Stopping losses is far more important than venting anger.
As someone who has dealt with paranormal events and is still alive today, Gao Zhiqiang still retains his rationality.
"You're smarter than I thought. You even know the situation is unfavorable to you. Since you're not brainless, why would you do something so thoughtless?" Yang Jian looked at him and said, "Just for a woman?"
"This is my personal matter, it has nothing to do with you." Gao Zhiqiang had a very bad feeling at this moment.
The person in front of him was extremely dangerous, and he had a premonition that if he continued to fight this person here, he would be the one to die in the end.
Yang Jian, "None of my business? That Liu Xiaoyu was my operator. You tricked her out of my break room and even used your ghostly abilities to influence her. Do you think this has nothing to do with me? You influenced her today, even controlled her behavior. How can I trust my operators in the future? What if she tries to sabotage me in some supernatural event because of you?"
"So I only had two choices: either replace the operator or kill you. Unfortunately, I chose the second option because it was safer. If you can do something to one of my operators, you might do something to the second one. They're all ordinary people; I can't trust either of them."
Upon hearing this, Gao Zhiqiang broke out in a cold sweat.
He now understood why this guy was fixated on him over such a trivial matter.
It wasn't because he tried to toy with two women, nor because he was standing up for someone in need, but because his abilities influenced the guy's operator, causing him to sense the danger.
Although he didn't intend to use his operator to do anything to him, the guy wouldn't think that way.
This is a mental illness; simply put, it's severe paranoia.
This is not uncommon among Ghost Tamer, because people who deal with many paranormal events inevitably become suspicious and wonder if something is secretly trying to kill them.
In internet slang: There are always troublemakers trying to harm me.
"This is a misunderstanding. I can explain. I didn't mean to target you," Gao Zhiqiang said immediately.
Yang Jian didn't look at him, but instead looked at the several rest rooms next to him.
Now.
Several strange-looking people stood in front of the doors of nearby lounges. They all looked in this direction, clearly alerted by the earlier alarm, and came out one after another. Some of them were familiar, while others were complete strangers.
"I've already given my reasons, you don't want to stop me, do you?" Yang Jian said.
His words were not directed at Gao Zhiqiang, but at the other Ghost Tamer.
"Yang Jian, I've heard of you, but killing a colleague as soon as you arrive at Headquarters isn't going to be easy to explain."
An unfamiliar Ghost Tamer leaned against the door of the lounge and said calmly, "If possible, it's time to stop. Give Headquarters some face. The meeting is about to start, and causing trouble now would have a big impact."
"The reasons are perfectly valid, don't worry, I won't interfere." Another person smiled and said, "However, I don't know if others will meddle."
"I suggest you kill Gao Zhiqiang. He dared to mess with your operator today; who knows, he might mess with your wife someday. That scumbag deserves to die." A strange female Ghost Tamer agreed. "But we need to act quickly. The alarm has been going off for a minute; some people should be coming soon."
Those who were just watching the spectacle had no intention of getting involved in Yang Jian and Gao Zhiqiang's affair.
It's very simple; the cost of getting involved is very high.
Gao Zhiqiang is special and very important to Headquarters, but who is Yang Jian?
A dark horse who has recently emerged in the Ghost Tamer circle, he single-handedly solved S-class paranormal incident in Dachang City. It is said that he survived a paranormal incident codenamed "Ghost Messenger" just two days ago and rescued many people.
Most importantly, this Yang Jian is very mysterious.
He had multiple contacts with Wang Xiaoming and, without the help of Headquarters, is suspected of controlling more than two ghosts.
This is a special anomaly among Ghost Tamer.
In terms of importance, Yang Jian is far superior to Gao Zhiqiang.
"Did you hear that?" Yang Jian then turned to look at Gao Zhiqiang.
"Yang Jian? This guy's Yang Jian? The guy codenamed Ghost Eye?"
After learning Yang Jian's identity, Gao Zhiqiang felt a chill run down his spine. He believed that this guy was really capable of taking action because he had killed Wang Xiaoming's brother in Dachang City, and Headquarters hadn't stopped him. So this guy was truly capable of killing people.
Run!
Without the slightest hesitation, he turned and left.
There's no need to actually escape; just buy some time until Headquarters arrives. Then, someone will naturally stop Yang Jian.
After all, there are quite a few powerful people at Headquarters.
They ran away?
Some people laughed when they saw Gao Zhiqiang fleeing in panic.
This guy looks like a freak and fierce monster, but I never expected that he wouldn't even have the courage to confront the young Yang Jian head-on, and would turn around and run away.
"He's only good at bullying ordinary people. He'd have to back down when he encounters a real tough guy. But I'm very interested to see if he can escape from Ghost Eye Yang Jian." Someone sneered, then looked forward to the outcome.
"Killing Gao Zhiqiang will likely affect Yang Jian's chances of becoming a candidate for Captain Plan, and he might even lose the election."
Some people have already started thinking about what will happen next.
Gao Zhiqiang traveled all the way, passing by numbers 10 and 9, and in front of each of the rest rooms.
Each of the Ghost Tamer standing at the door of the lounge looked indifferent and stood by, none of them intending to lend a helping hand.
Perhaps he knew some of them and could ask for help, but Yang Jian just stood behind and watched.
Although Yang Jian is a newcomer, he is too sharp and ambitious, making him someone everyone should be wary of.
