Chapter 46: Oh no! The wolf is here!

Hey hey? What are you trying to do?

A fat man on Dahe City's street suddenly shouted in panic.

Sir, have you had your checkup?

Two Public Security Bureau officers stopped the fat man and questioned him.

What checkup? I don't have time!

The fat man said impatiently, his face full of question marks.

Sorry, but please come with us for a moment.

The two Public Security Bureau officers exchanged a glance and said.

……

Such incidents have been happening frequently in Dahe City lately; passersby are used to it and even a bit envious, after all, they get a free checkup and health supplements.

Under this absurd yet somewhat reasonable rule, the demon elixir inside Chen Shoushan is being rapidly digested.

Finally, on the third day after Cao Yenghua's call, Chen Shoushan's demon elixir was completely digested, meaning he could prepare for the promotion ritual and become a Sequence Five Chaos Instructor!

Chen Shoushan stretched in his office, looked at Ye Feng sitting opposite, and smiled, saying, 'We're about ready to leave; did you bring the stuff?'

Ye Feng nodded, pointed to the box beside him, and said doubtfully, 'All eight Ghost Candles are inside; we're just going to join the fun, no need to bring so many, right?'

Things are meant to be used; even the most precious things are the same.

Chen Shoushan, however, said indifferently.

The Ghost Candle Headquarters has plenty, but life is only one; the importance is clear.

Let's go; I've already had Zhu Sihai prepare the car.

Just as Chen Shoushan and Ye Feng were about to leave the Public Security Bureau, Zhu Sihai came running over in a panic.

Chief Chen, it's terrible, it's terrible!

Seeing Zhu Sihai sweating profusely, Chen Shoushan frowned slightly, wondering what could make Zhu Sihai so panicked.

Seeing the curious glances from the surrounding Public Security Bureau officers, Chen Shoushan stopped Zhu Sihai from speaking further, saying, 'Let's go back to my office to talk.'

Okay.

Zhu Sihai also noticed his own lapse, hurriedly wiped the sweat from his head, and nodded.

Thus, Chen Shoushan, Ye Feng, and Zhu Sihai returned to the office; Chen Shoushan sat back in his chair, calmly looking at Zhu Sihai and said, 'Speak, what's wrong?'

Seeing Chen Shoushan calm in his chair, Zhu Sihai calmed down a bit, but his tone still a bit flustered as he said, 'Chief Chen, just now the students of Dahe City's Second Middle School all mysteriously disappeared, exactly the same as the previous incident at First Middle School!'

After hearing Zhu Sihai's words, Ye Feng looked toward Chen Shoushan, waiting for his decision.

Chen Shoushan's expression showed no noticeable change; he merely tapped the desk rhythmically with his right index finger, while Zhu Sihai dared not urge him and just stood there blankly.

At this moment, Chen Shoushan also felt a bit troubled; he had delayed the ZS City matter for three days, using the excuse of handling supernatural incidents, but now a supernatural incident truly erupted—oh no, he's become a scapegoat!

Hold on, Bureau Chief Wang, Bureau Chief Wang, you can't go in.

At this moment, noisy sounds came from outside, and they grew louder and louder.

Let go of me, I want to see Chief Chen.

Outside the office came Wang Tong's voice; Chen Shoushan looked at Zhu Sihai and said, 'Let him in!'

Zhu Sihai quickly nodded and left the office; soon outside quieted down, and Zhu Sihai brought Wang Tong inside.

At this moment, Wang Tong's eyes were bloodshot, his hair disheveled, and he no longer had the steadfast feeling he had when he first left.

Actually, Chen Shoushan bears no ill will toward Wang Tong; he merely stood in the way of Chen Shoushan's growth—just move aside, no need to cling on.

Chen Shoushan, I was wrong before, I was tactless; I, I beg you, I beg you, save my daughter!

As soon as he entered, Wang Tong fell to his knees with a thud, his eyes filled with tears, his voice trembling as he spoke.

The tears in his eyes were not from shame, but because he felt useless, unable to cleanse his daughter's defilement; now his daughter is missing, and he still can't do anything!

Seeing Wang Tong kneeling before Chen Shoushan, Zhu Sihai's expression also softened a bit; he and Wang Tong were old acquaintances, though they often didn't get along, but seeing Wang Tong's state now, he still felt uneasy.

However, Chen Shoushan today needs to depart for ZS City, which Zhu Sihai also knows; he's heard a bit about the situation there, with skull balloons flying everywhere, and it's far more serious than Dahe City.

I'm the person in charge of Dahe City; handling Dahe City's supernatural incidents is my duty, whether or not you're involved is the same; you don't need to do this.

Chen Shoushan looked at Wang Tong kneeling before him and gestured for Zhu Sihai to quickly pull him up.

How about this: Ye Feng, you go to the school; I'm now departing for ZS City, hoping to return by tonight.

Chen Shoushan thought for a moment before speaking.

Isn't that a bit risky? The situation in ZS City doesn't look simple; wouldn't it be too dangerous for you to go alone?

Ye Feng hesitated a moment and said.

It's fine; I won't get too deeply involved in ZS City's supernatural incidents.

Chen Shoushan said with a smile.

Alright then!

Seeing Chen Shoushan insist, Ye Feng had no objections.

Hmm, and you should take three Ghost Candles, just in case something happens.

Chen Shoushan felt that with Ye Feng's abilities plus the help of the Ghost Candles, resolving this supernatural incident should be no problem, after all, not all ghosts are as weak as starving ghosts.

At the very least, it should keep us safe.

Good!

Ye Feng also didn't refuse, after all, it concerns his own life; naturally, the more protective gear, the better.

Alright then, Old Zhu, you focus on sealing off the scene and information, don't let the civilians panic.

After Chen Shoushan finished instructing Ye Feng, he also gave Zhu Sihai a few instructions.

Yes!

Zhu Sihai immediately straightened his big belly and gave a salute.

Okay, that's settled. Ye Feng, if you think it's troublesome, just wait for me to come back.

Okay!

Just like that, everyone in the meeting room got busy, and Chen Shoushan also set off for ZS City.

Mr. Ye, take me with you—I'm not afraid of death!

Wang Tong, eyes red, said to Ye Feng.

Being unafraid of death is useless; what's useful is not dying.

Ye Feng glanced at Wang Tong and directly refused, saying, "How could I possibly bring an ordinary person to handle a supernatural incident? That would only increase the difficulty."

Watching Ye Feng leave, Wang Tong gritted his teeth. When his daughter was defiled, he had placed his hope in headquarters, hoping they would give him justice, but what was the result? Only a laughable compensation payment. Now his daughter faces danger again—how could he possibly still pin all his hope on others!

Wang Tong turned his gaze to Zhu Sihai standing nearby, his voice hoarse: "Zhu Sihai, give me a specially made handgun so I can go into the school."

Zhu Sihai's scalp went numb, and he said, half-laughing, half-crying: "Old brother, what are you going to do in there? You don't really think a broken gun can save your daughter, do you? You'll end up getting dragged in too."

Wang Tong merely looked at Zhu Sihai silently, his eyes pleading: "Please help me..."

Zhu Sihai fell silent, looking at his former superior before him, and understood his resolve. Since Wang Tong's wife passed away, his daughter has become his everything.

Come out alive...

Zhu Sihai removed the sidearm from his waist, looking at this old rival with a wistful sigh, and said.

Thanks, Old Zhu.

Wang Tong took the gun, patted Zhu Sihai on the shoulder, then turned and left.

Watching Wang Tong's staggering back, Zhu Sihai couldn't help feeling a sense of rabbit-dead-fox-sorrow—this damned world; who knows if the next person swept up in a supernatural incident won't be me? And if that happens, will anyone come to save me?

Damn it, if I had known I would have married earlier back when I was thin, Zhu Sihai cursed to himself.
