Mysterious Revival

"Latest news, Professor Wang's brother, Wang Xiaoqiang, is dead, killed by the new person in charge, Yang Jian."

Asia Ghost-Controller Division.

A small meeting was specially convened because it concerned a matter related to Professor Wang.

Not only was Yang Jian's operator, Liu Xiaoyu, present at the meeting, but also Captain Zhao Jianguo, along with all the key members of the department.

"I've said it before, this Yang Jian is an uncontrollable factor. His becoming a ghost-controller will only lead to more lawlessness, and now he has even killed the only direct relative of Professor Wang. If Professor Wang insists on pursuing this matter, it will provoke another internal conflict."

The man responsible for this meeting was a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes. His name was Cao Yanhua, the vice minister of this place.

"Take a look at Yang Jian's exam paper from when he participated in the ghost-controller assessment."

Cao Yanhua opened a document in his hand, "He's just cold-blooded and ruthless, showing no regard for public safety. He has just taken office and killed Wang Xiaoqiang. Who knows what kind of mess he will cause in the future. I think we should find an opportunity to remove Yang Jian and give Professor Wang a reasonable explanation."

"That's my view, what do you think?"

Another man in uniform spoke with an authoritative calm, "No matter who Wang Xiaoqiang's relative is, we must acknowledge that he organized an assassination against reserve ghost-controllers and even used a large amount of weapons. This is a complete terrorist attack, and in any era, such a person must be dealt with seriously."

"Yang Jian assumed his position and killed Wang Xiaoqiang. That's a merit, not a fault, Vice Minister Cao. If we simply tolerate him because Wang Xiaoqiang is Professor Wang's brother, then where is the law?"

"I don't agree with removing Yang Jian."

"The existence of Professor Wang is very important for the situation. His every move could affect the future of the country. We can't joke with the future. If because of this matter Professor Wang becomes emotional, and brings that emotion into his work, who will be responsible for the consequences?"

Cao Yanhua said, "I think it's necessary to give Professor Wang an explanation."

"Vice Minister, I would like to express my opinion. I think whether to remove Yang Jian or not, we should listen to Zhao Jianguo's opinions. He has been with Yang Jian for a long time and has met with him, so he should know Yang Jian very well. If he thinks Yang Jian is an uncontrollable and huge threat, then I agree with removing him.

If not, I think, on the contrary, he should be given more important roles. After all, from his record, he has solved several incidents, saved three ghost-controllers, and dismantled an uncontrolled ghost-controller club. Not many files in the archives can achieve such an impressive record, right? Zhao Jianguo, could you share your thoughts?"

Another person at the meeting table started speaking.

The focus shifted to Zhao Jianguo.

Zhao Jianguo's expression grew serious, and after a moment of contemplation, he said, "I agree with Vice Minister Cao's words. Yang Jian indeed is an uncontrollable person, impulsive and immature in his thinking, with a strong retaliatory mindset when cornered, and he even threatened to take down the entire department."

"So you think it's better to remove Yang Jian?" Cao Yanhua asked.

Zhao Jianguo then added, "However, based on my observation of him, although he has these shortcomings, he also has very frightening potential, not in studying or learning, but in handling events. Starting from the Ghost Door Knocker event, not only did Yang Jian survive, but he also became a ghost-controller and successfully rescued the other six."

"It's terrifying that a student could do this, especially considering that Zhou Zheng, the person in charge at the time, was sacrificed in that incident."

"In the subsequent incident at the shopping mall, he not only reclaimed it but also rescued Feng Quan. His record can be said to be perfect. You must understand that Yang Jian did this under the condition that the event file had been tampered with."

"Later, when another incident erupted, and the third ghost-controller, Zhao Kaiming, got involved, I made the wrong estimate to dispatch the nearest city's ghost-controller, Tong Qian, for support, leading to both of them getting caught up in the Ghost Door Knocker incident, hanging by a thread."

"Yang Jian took action again, not only saving Tong Qian, but Zhao Kaiming also survived, and he even brought out a group of survivors."

At this point, Zhao Jianguo said, "The Ghost Door Knocker incident is categorized as A, Catastrophe Level. The fact that Yang Jian survived twice from within it and was able to rescue people shows how outstanding his ability is."

"It's already not easy for domestic ghost-controllers to deal with C-level and B-level events. Those capable of handling A-level events are very scarce."

"So I think, Yang Jian's abilities outweigh his shortcomings, and he deserves to be nurtured."

Zhao Jianguo finished and added, "This can be seen from his assessment answers, especially the last question. When answering, he didn't hesitate to choose to kill the child with the backpack, and it wasn't by luck that he guessed right, but through very rational analysis. The real answer was indeed that the child with the backpack was a ghost."

"From the moment Sun Yi asked the question to the time he gave the answer, he hardly spent any time thinking. This is an almost instinctive response."

"Unlike others, Yang Jian has the talent to handle events, and I believe that if he doesn't sacrifice himself in the future, he might even qualify to participate in that plan."

"That's enough, your report is already detailed enough."

Cao Yanhua interrupted with some displeasure.

"From Zhao Jianguo's analysis, it is clear that Yang Jian's abilities outweigh his shortcomings. At least he is far more useful than Zhao Kaiming, who does nothing. I think we should cultivate him. As for Zhao Kaiming, we should find an opportunity to transfer him out of Dachang City to prevent conflicts in decision-making and avoid unnecessary losses," the person from before stated his opinion.

The middle-aged man in the Ghost Knocker uniform also spoke gravely, "During special times, special talents should be put to good use. I also believe that we should not easily remove a Ghost Knocker who has merit simply because of one criminal, not even if it relates to a relative of Professor Wang."

"Since everyone agrees, let's settle the matter with 'Ghost Eye' Yang Jian then. We should also show more concern for Professor Wang's situation," said Cao Yanhua.

"The meeting is adjourned."

After the decision was made, they immediately adjourned and left the scene.

Walking back, Liu Xiaoyu, who hadn't spoken during the meeting, asked in a low voice, "Captain, why is Vice Minister Cao so insistent on removing Yang Jian? He only just took up his post, and previously wasn't Yang Jian's action tacitly approved? They even had Sun Yi and Zhao Kaiming support him. Now that Yang Jian has successfully killed Wang Xiaoqiang, why remove him?"

Zhao Jianguo revealed a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth, "It's contradictory, isn't it?"

Liu Xiaoyu nodded.

"Actually, it's not hard to understand. Most people hope Yang Jian takes action but also hope he doesn't succeed."

"I don't quite understand, Captain, could you explain?"

"You'll naturally understand when you get to that point," Zhao Jianguo did not elaborate further.

However, at this moment, a staff member suddenly rushed over, panic-stricken, "Captain Zhao, things are looking bad."

"What happened?" Zhao Jianguo turned around and asked.

"Dachang City is not right; here are the latest satellite images."

The staff member opened a folder, revealing a satellite map inside.

Zhao Jianguo took a glance and his pupils abruptly constricted, his face showing extreme shock, "Damn, how could things have turned out this way so suddenly? Notify them quickly."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"We've already sent people to inform them. The minister is on his way here, asking us to gather in the main conference room."

"Alright, I'll be right there," Zhao Jianguo, looking extremely grim, handed back the folder, "You go inform the others."

Liu Xiaoyu spoke up, "Didn't we just finish a meeting? Why another one so soon?"

Zhao Jianguo replied, "Get back to the communication room immediately, contact Yang Jian, and once the communication is established, do not disconnect without my order. Have Zhao Kaiming's communicator do the same, the situation is the same as yours."

"Captain, has something big happened?"

Liu Xiaoyu sensed that something was amiss.

"It could very well be a major incident... If it's confirmed, it might be classified as Catastrophe Level. What are you waiting for, move!"

Zhao Jianguo barked, then rushed towards the main conference room without delay.

Catastrophe Level event?

You've got to be kidding.

Liu Xiaoyu headed for the communication room while her mind was in a bit of a daze.

You should know a Catastrophe Level event has the capacity to destroy the population of several cities.

Such events have only occurred two or three times globally, with the last instance barely minimizing ongoing damages through Professor Wang's research findings and at great cost to the lives of many Ghost Knockers.

But that incident did not come to an end.
