Mysterious Revival

Chapter 22: Code Name

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The moment Liu Xiaoyu lost her temper, she regretted it.

In the reception room, a middle-aged man wearing a uniform with a serious face immediately walked over and knocked on the table in front of her, saying, “Liu Xiaoyu, control your emotions. These are special times, don’t bring your personal feelings into the work.”

“Captain, this guy clearly knows the situation, but he won’t say it no matter what…” Liu Xiaoyu said

“In the face of special events, most people will have mental problems. You have to be considerate, tolerant, and even comforting. This is also the reason why most of the operators are female. If you can’t do the job, you can choose to resign,” The middle-aged captain allowed no doubt.

“Yes, Captain,” Liu Xiaoyu lowered her head and said.

“Reflect on yourself later and this better not happen again. I’ll talk to this person, you stand at the side and learn,” The middle-aged captain said.

“Hello, I’m Liu Xiaoyu’s Captain, Zhao Jianguo. I apologize for what happened with Liu Xiaoyu just now. She’s not mature enough to handle things. I’ve already criticized her, but I still hope for sir to stand firm in front of important matters and cooperate with us in the relevant investigation. If there are no problems, may we continue the conversation just now?” Zhao Jianguo’s tone was calm, giving people a sense that they could trust him.

The captain, huh?

On the bus, Yang Jian held the phone and his gaze moved slightly. This should be the highest level of personnel he could get to for the time being.

“I will tell you everything about Zhou Zheng without leaving out a single word, but in exchange, I want to know the things that I should know,” Yang Jian said, “The operator just now, Liu Xiaoyu, was too low-leveled and couldn’t make the decision, which is why I didn’t want to talk to her.”

His voice was very young. Although his methods were somewhat immature, he was very smart.

Zhao Jianguo’s expression changed slightly as he picked up the pencil and wrote:

This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com

Name: Zhang Wei (to be determined)

Age: 20 (estimated)

Personality: Has somewhat immature methods, but is far more vigilant and smart than his peers.

“Of course. Since you know about Zhou Zheng’s matters, there are some things I can tell you. Now, please tell me about Zhou Zheng’s situation,” Zhao Jianguo said.

“I’ve already said this, but Zhou Zheng is dead,” Yang Jian replied.

He was concise and did not beat around the bush.

Zhao Jianguo was silent for a moment.

If a ghost rider died because of the revival of the malicious ghost, it must be that he had used the ghost power.

And there was only one reason why a ghost rider would normally use his ghost power, that there was an emergency.

“Yes,” Yang Jian said.

“Can you tell me about it?” Zhao Jianguo asked.

“Yes…” Yang Jian began to recount what happened yesterday.

Zhao Jianguo gestured to Liu Xiaoyu, who was beside him, “Prepare to create a new malicious ghost file.”

Liu Xiaoyu, who was beside him, quickly took notes. She did not use a computer, but instead, she took notes.

“Ghost realm… Killing by knocking on the door, the ghost in the stairwell and the washroom, the door-knocking sound over the phone…” As the information was recorded piece by piece, Zhao Jianguo’s expression became more and more serious.

Yang Jian said, “This is the general story. Big brother, do you have any more questions?”

“It seems that you are still hiding something from us and don’t completely trust us. However, this is also right. It’s a good thing for young people to be vigilant and guarded. That being said, I still hope that you can continue to cooperate with our investigation,” Zhao Jianguo said. “Can you tell me how you left the ghost realm? After all, it’s not easy to get out of the ghost realm after entering it.”

“Before I answer your question, can I ask you a question?” Yang Jian asked.

“Of course,” Zhao Jianguo said after thinking for a while.

“What kind of existence is a ghost?” Yang Jian asked.

Zhao Jianguo said, “Laboratories in various countries have done experiments. Some think that “ghosts” are just special energy like dark matter or special particles. They think that it’s a special existence that hasn’t been studied by science yet. It’s just that people don’t understand and can’t analyze it that they call such existences “ghosts”. Just like when the ancients saw wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, they would think that these phenomenons were gods when in fact, they’re just the most normal natural phenomenons.”

“I want to hear the truth,” Yang Jian said seriously, “I still have an important piece of information about that old man. I think we should exchange our information.”

Zhao Jianguo knocked his knuckles on the table and said after pondering for a while, “With the current scientific experiments, we are still unable to analyze the existence of “ghosts”. Although scientists are speculating that they may be some kind of energy manifestation related to the soul, the mainstream view is still leaning towards idealism.”

“What do you mean?” Yang Jian asked.

Yang Jian’s expression was particularly solemn. How he had hoped that ghosts were just a change from unknown energy.

Unfortunately, they weren’t.

So ghosts really do exist.

“Can we continue the previous topic?” Zhao Jianguo asked.

Yang Jian said, “The reason why I could leave the ghost realm is very simple. I became a ghost rider.”

“As expected,” Zhao Jianguo’s eyes focused.

When he first learned that Yang Jian had left the ghost realm, he had already guessed it. After all, if Yang Jian hadn’t become a ghost rider, how could he have left the ghost realm?

“Do you still have any information about that old man that you’re withholding?” Zhao Jianguo asked.

Yang Jian said, “I want to know more information about the malicious ghosts.”

“Of course.”

Yang Jian said, “In that case, I won’t hide anything. That old man uses his door-knocking sound to locate one that has heard his knocks, then he kills by knocking on the door. The root of it is currently related to a post made by a netizen. You can investigate it from here, but be careful of that door-knocking sound. It’s a curse. Whoever hears it will be targeted by the old man.”

After that, he gave a rough description of the posts and the URL of the forum.

“Alright, I’ve already recorded all the information. I’ll send someone to investigate it later,” Zhao Jianguo said, “Please keep Zhou Zheng’s phone for the time being. The phone is specially made so that it won’t be corroded by the ghost power. On top of that, its battery can last for a year. As long as you don’t encounter a particularly serious situation, even if you’re involved in other supernatural incidents, you’ll still be able to call with the phone.”

“Is that so? Thank you very much then,” Yang Jian said, “But I’ve said whatever I should say. I think that’s all for now. I’ll contact you again when I have time.”

“Very well. In the future, your personal operator will be Liu Xiaoyu. I apologize to you on her behalf for what happened before,” Zhao Jianguo said.

“It’s okay. It’s just that I have a bad temper,” Yang Jian hung up the phone after saying that.

“Captain, Zhou Zheng’s phone should be recycled since there should be a lot of important information on it. According to the rules, it shouldn’t be taken by others,” Liu Xiaoyu said from the side.

Zhao Jianguo knocked his knuckles on the table and said, “The situation is different. This person has already become a ghost rider so he should be given special treatment. I think he has potential. Liu Xiaoyu, this is your next mission, you must monitor him closely.”

“He has just become a ghost rider, are you sure he’ll be fine?”Liu Xiaoyu said in surprise, “He hasn’t even gone through the training yet.”

“I know, but he can be a temporary worker first, no? If it really doesn’t work, he can take the job first and then train. I will report this matter. By the way, how are the records you were responsible for taking just now?” Zhao Jianguo said.

“The records have been completed. After this, I will organize and file them. What should the code name be?” Liu Xiaoyu looked at the densely packed manuscripts and said.

“Code name: Door-knocking Ghost. Put the level of terror at A, Catastrophe level,” After saying that, Zhao Jianguo said, “When the archives reviewed, they said that I suggested it.”

“Okay,” Liu Xiaoyu was shocked.

There was a new Catastrophe level malicious ghost in Asia.
