Mysterious Revival-Chapter 672 - 639: Business Trip Concludes

```

"Although what happened to you is indeed infuriating, life must go on. Tong Qian, what are your plans lately?"

In a private room of a restaurant.

Yang Jian looked at Tong Qian, who was burying her head in food and drink, and asked.

Although binge eating and drinking is bad for one's health, everyone present was a ghost manipulator, so they did not care about such things.

"I'm going back home to continue being the person in charge, and if I get the chance, I will eliminate those people," Tong Qian said with one mouthful of food and another ghostly face smiling.

"That's indeed a good choice, but the situation has changed now," Yang Jian said. "You did not attend the last meeting, and you may not be aware of some developments. Headquarters has started to formally implement the Captain Plan. From now on, all persons in charge must obey the commands of the captain in their region."

"After this incident, it can be said that each captain is akin to a mini headquarters, and being in charge will not be an easy task."

"No problem, no matter the changes, it's still about dealing with supernatural events. I'm used to it." Tong Qian continued to eat and drink without lifting her head, but one smiling face was always turned towards everyone.

Yang Jian fell into thought for a moment and then said, "Have you ever thought that no matter how we handle supernatural events and how hard we fight, the number of ghosts in the world is ultimately going to increase? As the person in charge, if you look at some of the major data from headquarters, it shouldn't be difficult to discover that the frequency of supernatural events is increasing at a very terrifying rate."

"Moreover, these kinds of events are gradually coming to light. I believe it won't be long before everyone knows about the existence of ghosts."

Tong Qian paused slightly: "What does that have to do with us?"

Huang Ziya interjected, "How can it not matter? We need to find a way to survive. Survival is the most important thing, so Yang Jian came to find you this time to have you join us. Let's form a team, so we can watch out for each other in the future, and most importantly, avoid being bullied."

"Brother Tui has secured a position as captain and has several slots in his hands. The headquarters has allowed him to form a team in Dachang City," Feng Quan also said.

"When dangerous people gather, it only becomes more dangerous, doesn't it? You don't seem like the kind to form a team," Tong Qian said, looking at Yang Jian.

Yang Jian said, "There's no choice. I have a premonition that the situation will become more serious in the future. It's ultimately a good thing to band together for warmth ahead of time. Take handling a supernatural event, for example. When one person faces a ghost and must repeatedly use the power of their own fierce ghost under attack, it greatly increases the risk of dying due to the ghost's revival."

"If we form a team and someone shares the burden, it's different. Even if one person uses their power once, all of us together are enough to handle a common supernatural event, which is an advantage."

"Besides, I'm only in charge of Dachang City for now. You can all move to Dachang City, where a team of ghost handlers will be stationed, ensuring a level of safety. At the very least, we are confident in protecting a city."

Tong Qian asked, "What about other places? Don't we care about them?"

Yang Jian said, "We're not gods; we can't manage so many places. With our limited abilities, we can only take good care of the city we're responsible for. Other places are other captains' concerns. If they can't manage it well, it's their failure. Do you want to protect the entire world by yourself?"

His idea was simple: to take care of his own plot of land and look after relatives, friends, and family.

"You're right. We can't manage so many things. We should take care of our own affairs first," Tong Qian thought for a moment and then nodded her head, "Okay, I'll join your team, but I have one condition."

"What condition?"

Tong Qian said, "I will continue to take care of the city I'm responsible for, until the day I die or the headquarters sends another person in charge. Of course, this is my personal matter, and you don't have to worry about it."

Yang Jian's gaze flickered.

Honestly, the city that Tong Qian was in charge of was very unsafe, as there was a Caesar Hotel there, with the hotel connected to a strange and terrifying place suspected of harboring many fierce ghosts.

Although it was temporarily safe, it was uncertain when a ghost might slip out of those rooms.

Therefore, that city was doomed to be fraught with disasters.

Of course, Dachang City was not safe either.

It just improved after the Hungry Ghost incident; otherwise, Yang Jian would not stubbornly cling to the position of the person in charge of Dachang City.

Because in his heart, this city was one of the safest in the world.

"It doesn't matter. The fact that you are willing to take responsibility for another city is your business," Yang Jian did not refuse but nodded in agreement.

This was Tong Qian's personal wish, and he did not want to intervene.

"Counting Tong Qian, we only have four people here. Isn't that too few? We don't even know if Zhang Lei will survive," Feng Quan said. "The team that Pei Dong put together had a full six people."

He believed that since it was going to be teamwork, naturally, the more people, the better.

Yang Jian said, "There's no rush for this matter. Let's start with this for now. Next, you'd better quickly take care of your personal affairs and then come to Dachang City. I'll be waiting there for you all to meet up."

"I do have some personal affairs to take care of," Feng Quan replied.

Huang Ziya said, "Captain, give me three days, and I assure you I will join you then."

She decided to move, relocating her entire family to Dachang City.

"Good, then that's settled."

Yang Jian nodded, "Also, I will return to Dachang City today unless something unexpected happens. I don't want to stay here any longer, especially in Big J City, which has left a very bad impression on me. I was only here on a business trip, who knew one trouble after another would arise."

"Troublesome matters are plentiful these days; it can't be helped," Feng Quan said with a smile, but as soon as he noticed Tong Qian smiling at him, he quickly restrained his smile.

After dining and discussing at the restaurant, the group decided to disperse.

Tong Qian planned to go home first, while Feng Quan and Huang Ziya also needed to attend to some personal matters before heading to Dachang City to meet up.

"But Brother Tui, what about this corpse?" Feng Quan slapped the glass case covered with a white cloth next to him as they were about to leave.

```

This was the corpse of Zhou Jiefeng. Although he was dead now, the ghost inside his body was still present and it was still able to form a Ghost Domain, which was highly dangerous.

Yang Jian said, "I'm giving this to you. Just be careful when you handle it. Find a way to send the body back to his family and say he died in a car accident. Compensate them a bit to settle the matter. Although this guy attacked the person in charge and should have been treated as a criminal, he did cooperate in the end. Let's give him some dignity. Conceal what should be concealed but be careful not to lose control of the ghost. As for whether you want to hand the ghost over to headquarters or sell it yourself, that's up to you."

"So generous?" Feng Quan was rather surprised.

"Consider it hazard pay for this time, since you almost got in trouble because of Tong Qian. It wouldn't feel right not to compensate you," Yang Jian said.

Feng Quan replied, "Since Brother Tui you've said so, I won't stand on ceremony."

"Tong Qian, you have no objections to me handling it this way, right?" Then, Yang Jian asked.

Tong Qian nodded and said, "That's fine, and I'm not that petty. I won't extend Zhou Jiefeng's wrongdoing to his family."

"As long as you have no objections," Yang Jian said. "It's getting late now, time to go."

Soon, they parted ways in Xiao'an County.

With this lesson learned, Tong Qian would probably not slip up so easily in the future.

After leaving Xiao'an County, Yang Jian took a taxi back to Big J City.

He did not go to the city center but arrived at a suburban villa. He was just planning to take the Ghost Child and then leave by plane.

"Driver, please wait here for me for a bit. I'm picking someone up, and then we'll go to the airport," Yang Jian told the taxi driver before getting out.

"I'm afraid I can't do that. It's late, and I'm already off duty. My wife has made dinner and is waiting for me at home," the driver hesitated to say.

"I understand, an extra ten thousand." Yang Jian still had the air of a wealthy, easy mark.

The driver immediately warmed up, "Handsome guy, do you need help with luggage?"

"No need."

Yang Jian quickly made a round through the villa. He immediately let the Ghost Child out of the room. Not only that, but he also disguised the Ghost Child, finding some clothes and hats left by He Tianxiong in the wardrobe. He capped it off with a duckbill cap, a woolen scarf, and a pair of sunglasses for the Ghost Child.

Finally feeling that the shroud Dead Man's Head was too conspicuous, he dressed the Ghost Child in a men's jacket.

Looking at the Ghost Child, with most of its face covered by sunglasses and wrapped tightly in a scarf, and paired with a thick, chunky gold necklace around its neck, it looked every bit like a spirited young lad.

Walking outside, no one would have guessed this was a little ghost—certainly more likely to be seen as a trendy kid.

"This'll have to do," Yang Jian said, satisfied, then had the Ghost Child carry a backpack and follow behind him.

The backpack contained a decaying Dead Man's Head. For safety's sake, he wrapped it in gold foil, but the contour of a human head was still visible.

"Follow me."

Yang Jian walked ahead, the Ghost Child agilely following behind with its backpack and sunglasses.

"Bang! Bang!"

However, just as Yang Jian was about to leave the villa with two luggage bags in tow, he suddenly heard loud thudding sounds from somewhere upstairs.

It was as if something was banging against a door.

The sound echoed through the empty villa, creating an indescribable sense of dread.

The Ghost Child stopped in its tracks, tilted its head, and, with sunglasses on, looked towards a room on the second floor.

"It's the room with the ghost painting," Yang Jian's gaze sharpened, and his complexion changed.

"Has the ghost from that painting finally come out?"

Without paying attention to the banging noise, Yang Jian left the place without hesitation, carrying the luggage bags.

The room was a safe-house, so the probability of the ghost painting coming to life wasn't high.

Yang Jian quickly locked the villa's main gate, and all the doors and windows had been sealed by him earlier, so even if the ghost from the painting really did come out, it would most likely be trapped inside the villa.

"To the airport."

Yang Jian and the Ghost Child got into the taxi.

The taxi driver glanced at the child Yang Jian brought into the car and felt a chill, but he didn't think too much about it and quickly started the car to leave the neighborhood.

And at that moment.

In a dim window on the second floor of the villa behind them, a blurry figure stood still, eerily observing the taxi as it gradually moved away, until after a while, the figure slowly disappeared from the window. After it vanished, the unoccupied, dim villa began to resonate with a series of clear footsteps.

All these changes went unnoticed. Occasionally, residents from the same neighborhood passing by caught a glimpse of a blurry figure moving behind the window of the uninhabited villa. But as outsiders, they naturally wouldn't meddle, assuming that the owner was away and the movements were just cleaners at work.

Yang Jian himself didn't realize how his quick decision to leave spared him from a potentially great danger.

But most importantly, he was alive as he left the city, and with the last evening flight, he silently flew back to Dachang City.

Although many things had happened on this trip to headquarters, his main goal was achieved. He had resolved the issue of his own ghost's revival and had even secured the position of team captain. Even though he was now on indefinite leave, Yang Jian didn't care about that. What he cared about was his own survival.
