Chapter 39 Commendation
"Yang Jian, can you save Shanshan? Professor Wang said she's not dead." Wang Bin extinguished his cigarette and began to plead with Yang Jian.
"I'll give it a try." Yang Jian walked to Wang Shanshan's side.
He placed his hand on Wang Shanshan's corpse, and a flash of red light appeared.
Wang Shanshan's eyebrows twitched slightly, and then she slowly opened her eyes.
"Yang Jian, aren't you dead?" Wang Shanshan said softly.
"We were lucky this time; we survived," Yang Jian said.
Wang Shanshan nodded: "Has the starving ghost been dealt with? I saw him inside No. 7 Middle School when I died."
"It's been resolved, no need to worry anymore," Yang Jian said.
"A special kind of ghost slave? Coexisting with Yang Jian's life," Wang Xiaoming analyzed from the side.
"Yang Jian, I'd like to speak with you privately."
"Don't even think about getting your hands on that thing. I won't lend it to you." Yang Jian stated bluntly that Wang Xiaoming's experiment was playing with fire. If all the ghosts in the ghost mirror were released, no one would be able to handle it.
"No, I want to talk to the thing behind you. You can name your terms," Wang Xiaoming said.
This time, Yang Jian simply ignored Wang Xiaoming and disappeared in a flash of red light.
Sun Rui watched this scene from a distance without stepping forward. Wang Xiaoming always puts all his chips on the table, but those who cannot control supernatural power always lack a sense of awe for supernatural power.
"Never mind, I'm going to sleep." Sun Rui's figure disappeared, since he wouldn't have much interaction with Yang Jian in the future anyway.
Even by the time Yang Jian arrived at the Ghost Post Office, he had already become a high-ranking messenger.
The next day.
Dachang City Central Gymnasium.
Today is the day the headquarters is holding an awards ceremony. The reason it was delayed before was to allow the ghost tamers to stay a few more days, so that if there were any remaining supernatural forces in Dachang City, it would be easier to deal with them.
Sun Rui slowly walked into the passage, accompanied by Yang Jian and Yan Li.
Inside the venue, many people had already taken their places early.
Looking around at the seats, Sun Rui saw Ling Tong Xiong Wenwen, Gui Lian Tong Qian, Cao Yang (whose code name was unclear), and several unfamiliar ghost tamers. He didn't bother to find out about these people; they were just cannon fodder anyway.
The group was tense, looking ready to fight.
"They've arrived!" Cao Yang said.
Inside the venue, the people who had been arguing fell silent, especially Xiong Wenwen, who even started crying.
"What are you doing? You're not planning to fight, are you? I came in and saw you bullying a kid. You wouldn't gang up on a kid, would you?" Yang Jian said.
His eyes narrowed. Although he was joking, he was the current head of Dachang City, and he certainly wouldn't let anyone who tried to cause trouble get away with it.
"Please take your seats. Today's event is mainly to recognize Sun Rui's contributions to the starving ghost incident," Cao Yanhua said.
Cao Yang sat in his seat, thinking to himself. Xiong Wenwen had just used her precognitive ability and was frightened into tears. If their conflict escalated further, someone would definitely step in to stop it.
"Who is this person? How could they possibly scare the fearless Xiong Wenwen to tears?" He didn't say this aloud, but his eyes swept over the three of them.
Sun Rui did not sit down but went directly onto the stage.
This time, he was the one who resolved the starving ghost incident, so logically, it should be credited to him.
"This incident was made possible by the strong support from headquarters. Without information from headquarters, we would never have been able to complete this mission..."
Sun Rui would still exchange pleasantries, but he kept all the details about his personal secrets hidden. This wasn't to keep a low profile, but because much of his information couldn't withstand scrutiny. The headquarters wasn't pressing him for details because he had just solved an S-level paranormal incident, and they would need his help in the future.
"...Alright, that concludes my summary. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask." Sun Rui finished speaking.
Immediately, someone raised their hand; it was Guo Fan.
"Are starving ghosts really that terrifying? From what you've said, they seem quite easy to be."
"What the person in charge said is right. If you can control two vengeful ghosts, with the support of headquarters, you can also imprison starving ghosts," Sun Rui said casually.
"I knew it! There's no such thing as an unsolvable paranormal event." Guo Fan got the information he wanted and sat down contentedly.
"Idiot, I must stay away from this guy in the future, otherwise he'll definitely be a terrible teammate." Cao Yang glanced at Guo Fan and then cursed inwardly. Sun Rui is currently the focus of the entire paranormal community, and he was probably just saying these things to appease headquarters.
Several other officials then raised their hands to ask questions, and Sun Rui answered them one by one. In short, his message was that you could do it, but if you died, it wouldn't be my fault.
Seeing this, Vice Minister Cao Yanhua couldn't hold back any longer and interrupted the question-and-answer session. If this continued, Sun Rui would surely ruin a large number of the headquarters' leaders.
If the starving ghost incident were really as simple as Sun Rui described, then even rescue efforts wouldn't have been unable to reach Dachang City.
"Alright, Sun Rui, thank you for sharing your experience. You can rest now."
Sun Rui nodded and stepped down from the platform.
Cao Yanhua stepped onto the stage: "Next, I will announce the headquarters' wanted notice. Zhao Kaiming, during the operation to imprison the starving ghosts, prevented Sun Rui and others from carrying out their actions. Now, a global manhunt is in effect for him. Successfully capturing or killing Zhao Kaiming will earn you a red ghost candle."
There were other things Cao Yanhua didn't say. Zhao Kaiming was behind this paranormal event, but some things couldn't be said openly, otherwise it would cause unrest.
"Next, everyone can freely exchange ideas and share their experiences in dealing with paranormal events," Cao Yanhua said.
At that moment, Sun Rui, who had been sitting down, felt a hand on his shoulder.
"So you're Sun Rui. I've seen your file. You're the person in charge of Dahan City, and you've managed it very well. How about we become friends? My name is Lin Long." Lin Long said, pinching Sun Rui's shoulder.
"Sorry, I don't make friends easily," Sun Rui said coldly.
"Is that so? Let's get straight to the point. We're all in charge here. Could you trade me a ghost candle? If any supernatural events happen in your Dahan City in the future, I can help you handle them," Lin Long said, his tone carrying an inexplicable confidence.
"What if I say no?" Sun Rui glanced at the arrogant ghost tamer.
"So there's nothing to talk about?" Lin Long's eyes turned sinister, as if he wanted to crush Sun Rui's shoulder.
The next moment, Sun Rui stopped breathing and collapsed to the ground.
"Dead? Dead? How could this be?" Lin Long stood there stunned. He used a little supernatural power to teach him a lesson.
Those around them watched this scene in disbelief. They had even survived the starving ghost incident, but they never expected to die at the hands of their own people.
"Lin Long, what have you done?!" Cao Yanhua was going crazy. The whole world's attention was on Sun Rui. If something happened to Sun Rui, what would the other Ghost Tamers think?
The next moment, a red light covered the area.
A cold voice rang in everyone's ears: "Do you want to die if you dare to make a move in Dachang City?"
Cao Yang stared in astonishment at the scene before him. He finally understood why Xiong Wenwen had cried in fear. If Yang Jian had made a move just now, he would have done the same.
