Mysterious Awakening

Chapter 217: As night fell

Due to the possibility of a large-scale supernatural event in Dachang City, Yang Jian had to temporarily abandon his actions against Ye Feng.

Even the conflict between him and Zhao Kaiming was forced to stop.

In fact, not only him, but Zhao Kaiming also thought the same. It would be foolish to fight each other in the face of such a special event.

God knows if they can survive this supernatural event.

If they can't survive, then all the conflicts would be meaningless.

"Let's go to the police station where Liu is." Yang Jian drove straight to a police station in the city.

The sky was already dark, and with the evening approaching, the entire city still felt dimly lit despite all the streetlights. The atmosphere was cold and mysterious, with a chilling and eerie feeling.

It's hard to imagine what Dachang City would become when it's completely dark.

Would the ghosts come out at night?

Yang Jian frowned deeply. In fact, he knew that staying in a big city was not a good choice. The probability of supernatural events occurring in densely populated areas was too high. He had already moved out of the city center at the fastest speed, avoiding the downtown area. But he never expected such a large-scale special event to happen.

"If this range includes the Guojiang District, is it a ghost domain? Or something else? Liu Xiaoyu said that Dachang City has been sealed off, with a certain place outside the city as the boundary, unable to freely enter or exit."

"If a ghost can do this, its level is probably beyond the A-level disaster. But it's impossible for Dachang City to have such a high-level ghost without any detection,"

Neither the Xiaqiang Club, which was still alive before, nor Detective Zhou Zheng, had heard of such reports.

Yang Jian wasn't too afraid of fierce ghosts, but he was more worried about the unknown fear.

In the absence of information, the only way to understand a ghost was to risk his life.

It was extremely dangerous.

"But this feeling seems familiar. It seems like I've encountered it before." Yang Jian looked at the dark and gloomy sky, and the figure of the ghost baby appeared in his mind.

Zhou Zheng died from the resurrection of a fierce ghost, releasing that ghost baby.

The last time they met should have been in an office building in the city center.

At that time, it shouldn't be called a ghost baby anymore, it should be called a ghost person.

Because in just a month or so, that thing had already grown from a baby to a child, and then into an adult.

Growing in an almost supernatural way.

"It shouldn't be that ghost baby. If it's defined, its danger level is probably only C-level, and it kills one person at a time, too slow. But from the last time we met, that ghost baby had already grown to the level of using a ghost domain." Yang Jian continued to ponder.

"But the range of that ghost domain is very small, barely enough to cover a floor of an office building, and it can't completely seal off the ghost domain. Ordinary people can freely enter and exit."

"Wait, why do I think that the ghost baby also has a ghost domain?"

Recalling the supernatural event in the office building in the city center, a group of office workers encountered the ghost baby and were forced to jump from a dozen floors up.

If that was really a ghost domain, those people would never have had a chance to jump off the building.

So... that wasn't a ghost domain.

At least it wasn't the same as the ghost domain Yang Jian controlled.

"My intuition tells me that this event is extraordinary. If we don't prepare in advance or find a way to solve the source, the consequences will be extremely serious." Yang Jian looked at the gradually darkening sky, and his uneasiness grew.

The car stopped.

He arrived at the police station where Liu was.

"Yang Jian, have you arrived at the police station now? We have already arranged everything here. You can use the batch of weapons, but you have the responsibility to supervise and make sure they don't fall into the hands of criminals." Liu Xiaoyu's voice came through the satellite positioning phone.

"When can the support from your side arrive? There aren't many ghost tamers in Dachang City. There are probably less than ten now. With this small number of people and the lack of sufficient information and intelligence support, if we really encounter an unsolvable supernatural event, the chances of being wiped out are very high. Even if Zhao Kaiming and I try our best to protect Wang Xiaoming, it will be very difficult."

Yang Jian emphasized the seriousness of the situation to deceive for support.

"We are already taking action. In fact, we are more anxious than you." Liu Xiaoyu said.

"Since you have nothing to do, why not help me organize and give me a list of all the supernatural event files in Dachang City that you currently have? I'm worried that this supernatural event will trigger other potential supernatural events. If that's the case, the situation will be worse than imagined."

Ghosts wouldn't go after other ghosts, but they would disrupt a certain balance and trigger some potential supernatural events.

So this also had to be considered.

"You're right. Your idea reminded me. I will report this immediately, and within three hours, I will give you a file of all the supernatural events in Dachang City." Liu Xiaoyu immediately said.

At this time, Yang Jian had just entered the police station and saw Liu and several colleagues waiting here.

"Detective Yang." Liu greeted with a salute.

"Hello, Captain Liu." Yang Jian shook hands with him. "Has the notification from above been received? What about the batch of weapons left by the criminals who tried to assassinate me last time?"

"They are all here, not a single one missing." Liu pointed to a temporary table nearby.

There were several well-armed special police officers guarding the table, ensuring that nothing went wrong.

"There are a total of twenty-five pistols, three sniper rifles... and some special bullets." Liu read from a list.

"If Detective Yang needs weapon support, just ask for permission from above, and we can provide more support."Yang Jian said, "Ordinary weapons are useless, a brick would be better. This is a specially made weapon, it's somewhat useful."

Although it can't kill ghosts, it can still have some effect, such as long-distance probing, dealing with ghost slaves, or deterring some disobedient people.

If I were to buy it myself, the price would be too high. Who knows how many hands it has passed through. With these confiscated weapons, I won't have to worry about such weapons for a long time.

"There's too much of this stuff for me to use, I'll leave some for your team, Captain Liu. It might come in handy sometimes. I'll take the rest. If there are bullets of the same type, give me more. Ordinary ones will do. I should find some time to practice."

Yang Jian's shooting skills were such that he would definitely hit within five meters, rely on luck within ten meters, and beyond ten meters, unbelievably, he could aim at someone's head but hit their bird.

"I need to ask for permission. Only if the higher-ups agree can I provide you with ammunition," Captain Liu said.

Yang Jian replied, "Of course."

In such special times, such requests would naturally be approved. The higher-ups quickly agreed, but there was one condition: Yang Jian had to take responsibility and ensure that the weapons did not fall into other people's hands.

After taking the weapons, Yang Jian prepared to leave. "Captain Liu, the situation in Da Chang City these days is probably more serious than we thought. Although you guys are working hard on the front line, I still hope you can be careful. In some situations, it's best to ensure your own safety first."

"Saving people is a matter of duty, but we must also act according to our abilities."

Captain Liu was silent for a moment before saying, "Thank you for the reminder, Officer Yang. But there's something else I should tell you."

"What is it?"

Captain Liu said, "Little Zhang is dead."

Little Zhang?

Yang Jian looked puzzled.

"It's Zhang Yuan, the one who was trapped in the mirror last time."

Captain Liu pointed to a piece of decorative material on the wall that had been removed. "Because we were afraid of causing too much impact, that thing has been sent away and specially treated."

Yang Jian then remembered. Indeed, a police officer had been trapped in a glowing mirror when he came here last time. "I'm sorry, although I have temporarily solved the incident, I couldn't save him."

He wasn't lying, it was just the truth.

Because Zhang Wei had already died once, and the ghost had disappeared, there was naturally no chance to enter the mirror again.

"Zhang Yuan died of thirst in the mirror. He died in great pain and helplessness. I watched it happen. I didn't even dare to tell his mother. Do you know, just yesterday, his old mother was still sitting on the steps outside the door, crying for her son. Although the report said that Zhang Yuan was missing, his mother had already guessed that Zhang Yuan had sacrificed."

Captain Liu said, "At that time, I didn't know how to comfort his mother, and I didn't dare to tell her the truth."

"I understand, the chance of sacrifice is high once you get involved in such incidents. But you are an international criminal police officer, capable of solving such things. I'm not asking you to do anything, because I know very well that you are also risking your lives to deal with these ghostly things. But I still can't help but say one thing."

"Please, don't let our sacrifices be in vain."

Captain Liu said very seriously and sincerely.

Yang Jian didn't answer. Out of respect, he saluted Captain Liu and then left without looking back.

He didn't have the courage to take on this responsibility.

Because he wasn't that great. Everything he had done up to now was just to survive, to live better.

This kind of global supernatural event is not something one person can change.

Just like an earthquake or flood, it can't be reversed by human power. Sacrifice, death, and pain are inevitable.

After leaving the police station, the sky outside was even darker.

The surroundings were like a thick fog, enveloped by a dark green-black aura, dense, sticky, and lingering.

But this darkness didn't affect the vision too much. Looking forward, you could still see clearly, but it was very blurry, as if you suddenly became nearsighted.

He looked up at the sky.

The dark clouds were pressing down on the city, making it hard to breathe.

The shops on the sidewalk were emitting a gray light in the dim world, making it incredibly eerie and gloomy.

The entire bustling city, with its bright lights and wine, had suddenly turned into a ghost town.

Perhaps in some corner of this city, an unknown supernatural event was happening.
