Mysterious Resurrection: The Peddler

Chapter 53 Changing Thoughts

At 5:31 in the morning on June 22, a ray of red light suddenly appeared in the thick darkness that enveloped Dachang No. 7 Middle School. The red light was equally thick, cutting through the darkness nearby.

The red light only appeared for a moment and then disappeared, as if it was an illusion, but Cao Yang knew: Ghost Eye Yang Jian officially debuted from this moment on!

"Senior, Boss, this time it's up to you."

Cao Yang dialed Boss Liu's number and said slyly. At the same time, he prayed in his heart that Boss Liu would not cause trouble for him after recognizing the identity of the knocker.

"Don't worry, don't worry. When you get to my Taiping Inn, even a dragon will coil up for me, and even a tiger will lie down for me."

In a hostel in Taiping Ancient Town, Boss Liu patted his chest confidently and made bold statements.

"Okay, stop talking, boss. I have something important to do."

Boss Liu hung up the phone in a hurry and came to the inn to start making arrangements.

At six o'clock in the morning, on a pedestrian street outside No. 7 Middle School, seven high school students were lying on the road in an unsightly manner, looking pale and exhausted, after escaping death and making sure they were safe.

"Besides, you should have become a ghost tamer, right? Otherwise, you would not have been able to escape from the ghost den. The only ghost den that can escape is another, stronger ghost den."

“Dudu~!”

"Interpol? Are you Zhou Zheng's colleague? Then why didn't you come when the school was in trouble?"

Cao Yanhua's tone was somewhat excited, not only because resolving the incident would reduce casualties, but also because he was pleased that his nephew was so capable.

"Great! Then you should go there as soon as possible to prevent Zhou Zheng from causing another incident due to the resurrection of the evil spirit."

Cao Yang took out the speech he had prepared long ago and said it without any psychological burden. He really didn't have the ability to deal with the knocking ghost himself, so it was a good deed if he could lead it away.

At the same time, the darkness that enveloped the entire campus gradually receded. In less than ten minutes, the darkness completely faded away, leaving only an old, decayed and dilapidated school.

"I'm sorry, I'm not strong enough to fight that ghost, otherwise I would have died. Zhou Zheng's satellite phone is in your hand, which means he's dead. I believe you've seen the scene of the ghost reviving after his death. If I die in school again, do you think you still have a chance to get out alive?"

"Hello, I'm Interpol Cao Yang, and I've been ordered to investigate the supernatural incident that occurred at Dachang No. 7 Middle School. Don't worry, I've already led the ghost away, and it won't appear again in the short term."

Cao Yang appeared on the pedestrian street and immediately locked onto the seven high school students who were still resting. One of them looked pale and cold, obviously being eroded by the evil spirit of a ghost. It was undoubtedly Yang Jian.

Yang Jian asked in a cold tone, and several of his classmates joined in.

"My plan worked. The ghost den has been cleared and the ghost should have left. Zhou Zheng's location has changed. I'm going to investigate the situation. If the other party's evil ghost revives, I will try my best to detain him."

Cao Yang took out his ID and said to Yang Jian.

Cao Yang said this to Wang Xiaoming and Cao Yanhua, telling them that they must firmly grasp the credit.

At this moment, Zhou Zheng's phone suddenly rang. Yang Jian was hesitating whether to answer it, but in the end he pressed the answer button.

"Zhou Zheng, please report the current situation."

A young female voice came from the other end of the line. "Zhou Zheng is dead."

Yang Jian answered truthfully.

"Dead? How did he die? Please explain clearly."

"How else could he die? Giving birth to a child. Aren't you from the headquarters? Don't you know anything about him? If that's the case, I doubt your authenticity, as well as the person in front of me who claims to be Zhou Zheng's colleague."

As he spoke, Yang Jian also glanced at Cao Yang.

The person on the other end of the phone fell silent, obviously thinking about Yang Jian's words.

"Let me tell you."

"You must be Zhou Zheng's operator, right? I'm Cao Yang, also a city manager. I should be able to find it in the archives at the headquarters."

Cao Yang interrupted their conversation. Liu Xiaoyu was indeed a little stupid in the early days, so Cao Yang was ready to stop her behavior.

"Cao Yang? Why are you in Dachang City?"

The person who spoke was Zhao Jianguo. He had been guarding Liu Xiaoyu since Zhou Zheng reported the ghost den incident.

"Since Captain Zhao is here, it will be easy. I came to Dachang City for a special mission, but I just happened to see this incident. I led the ghost away, and the ghost den is temporarily cleared. But you should ask this young man for the specific details. He just escaped from the ghost den, so he has more say on this incident."

After a conversation, Yang Jian's doubts were dispelled. Cao Yang witnessed Yang Jian's debut and now he has no regrets. Now there is only one last thing to do: try to recover the ghost blood.

"Take Zhou Zheng's call first. I have my own things to do, so I'll leave you alone for now."

After saying that, Cao Yang left.

"After Yan Li's death, the ghost blood will form a blood pool, and it will be much more difficult to steal the ghost blood at that time. And Yan Li is not a bad person. He is not far from recovery now. Maybe I can find him first and try to buy the ghost in his body. Even if he still chooses to cooperate with Yang Jian to try to solve the ghost incident, as long as he is still willing to trade the ghost blood to me afterwards, it will be fine."

Walking on the streets of Dachang City, Cao Yang suddenly realized why he should make himself unhappy. He could tell which was more dangerous, risking his life to steal from the blood pond or buying evil spirits directly from living people.

"Professor Wang, I have completed my mission here. Can I go back to Otsu City?"

"Of course. Zhou Zheng is already dead. There is no point in pursuing the matter any further. It is not a bad idea to let him bury some things in his heart forever. According to the information provided by the young man, Zhou Zheng helped him block the attack of the evil spirits in the ghost den. He still has some humanity. Let him maintain his heroic image."

"However, we still need to keep an eye on Zhao Kaiming. Although we don't know his intentions, he is clearly a dangerous person."

Wang Xiaoming said slowly that he thought there was no need to reveal Zhou Zheng's deeds, and objectively speaking he did not wantonly harm ordinary people, and he still adhered to his duties as the person in charge until the last moment of his life.

"You should find someone else to help me with this. I have my own things to do. In addition, I hope the headquarters can settle my compensation for this business trip as soon as possible. Delayed wages will make employees lose their enthusiasm for work."

"Don't worry, your business trip process has been submitted to the evaluation committee, and your compensation will not be reduced."

"That's best."
