Chapter 7: Emergency Meeting

~6 min read 1,185 words

On the highway outside Dachangshi.

At this moment, a red light flashed, and Chen Shoushan and two others appeared before Wang Xiaoming.

Wang Xiaoming's expression changed; Chen Shoushan came out too fast—this whole affair took only a few minutes.

"Brother, save me! I'm your only brother! Mom told you to take care of me before she died—you promised!!"

Wang Xiaoqiang was still pinned under the sports car; seeing Wang Xiaoming standing not far away, he couldn't help but burst into tears.

Actually, yesterday Wang Xiaoqiang had already received Wang Xiaoming's call telling him to flee, but after losing the Xiaoqiang Club, he only wanted to die together with the club.

But when Yang Jian and the others truly came to kill, Wang Xiaoqiang suddenly lost his nerve—he didn't want to die.

But ignoring Wang Xiaoqiang, Wang Xiaoming stared intently at Chen Shoushan.

"You actually did it? Can you suppress the supernatural revival inside the Ghost Master's body?"

After all, Yang Jian's expression clearly shows they had already discussed this between the two; otherwise they wouldn't have released Wang Xiaoqiang, and if this is true, Chen Shoushan's appearance would undoubtedly be a turning point in the national situation.

"Professor Wang, you misunderstood—it's not suppression but extension, and it will come at a certain cost."

Chen Shoushan explained that appropriately displaying his own value would raise his status at headquarters, but he must not overly attract headquarters' attention, or else everything he does later would become difficult.

"Also right..."

Upon hearing Chen Shoushan's words, Wang Xiaoming replied thoughtfully.

After all, if Chen Shoushan could truly directly suppress other ghosts' revivals, then the terror level of the ghosts he controls inside his body would certainly be very high, and they would also be easier to revive, so Chen Shoushan could not possibly use his own power so lightly.

But merely based on being able to prolong the Ghost Master's revival, it would draw contention from all major forces.

"Chen Shoushan, I will recommend you to headquarters; do you have any other requests?"

Wang Xiaoming directly asked for Chen Shoushan's opinion; even though his intuition told him Chen Shoushan's ambitions were not small, what did it have to do with him, Wang Xiaoming? He was merely a researcher—such matters should be left to Cao Yanhu to worry about.

"If possible, I hope to become the person in charge of Dahe City."

Chen Shoushan thought and said, actually as long as I don't go to headquarters it's fine; other places are acceptable; Dahe City is after all my hometown, so going there would be more familiar.

"Your ability is special; going to headquarters would offer better development and be safer."

Wang Xiaoming suggested, after all Chen Shoushan's ability has a major impact on headquarters.

"Dahe City is my hometown; I want to protect it!"

Chen Shoushan laughed and gave a reason that even Wang Xiaoqiang, still lying under the sports car, found absurd.

This absurd yet slightly reasonable reason made everyone present fall silent.

"Alright, if you insist, I will try to negotiate with headquarters."

Wang Xiaoming paused, then replied.

It seems Chen Shoushan's condition is good—he can still joke!

Yang Jian saw that the two people in front had reached an agreement, and then began to drive people away.

"Alright, Professor Wang, take your brother and go—but don't blame me for not warning you; if I ever encounter him again, even the Jade Emperor couldn't save him!"

Wang Xiaoming nodded, said nothing more; regarding this brother, he has already fulfilled his benevolence and duty, and after this incident with Yang Jian, he believes he will become honest.

A red light flashed by; the car pressing Wang Xiaoqiang vanished; Wang Xiaoqiang then barely managed to crawl up, and under everyone's gaze he limped toward Wang Xiaoming.

Wang Xiaoming didn't even glance at him, boarded the helicopter; thus the Wang Xiaoming brothers gradually flew away from here.

"How about touring Dachangshi City?"

Yang Jian watched the helicopter fly away, then extended an invitation to Chen Shoushan.

And regarding the legacy left by the Xiaoqiang Club, Chen Shoushan also had some ideas, naturally agreeing accordingly; although the shareholders of the Xiaoqiang Club were slaughtered cleanly by Yang Jian, each shareholder's behind-the-scenes company still exists! This is a considerable income; Wang Xiaoqiang painstakingly gathered investments through great hardship; Chen Shoushan does not want to let it go.

Thus, the two got into the taxi that Chen Shoushan had previously taken, heading into Dachangshi; but Chen Shoushan inside the car suddenly had a bad premonition, this is the intuition of barbarians.

"What's wrong?"

Yang Jian looked at Chen Shoushan, whose face suddenly turned solemn beside him, and asked.

"I always feel that something bad is happening."

Chen Shoushan turned his head to look at the scenery outside the window; Yang Jian also curiously followed.

Only see that the outside weather was originally pleasant and sunny, but at some point it suddenly turned gloomy.

At this moment, the other side.

"Professor Wang, we seem to have been going in circles."

The guard, face somewhat pale, reported to Wang Xiaoming.

"Return to Dachangshi! Simultaneously notify headquarters, Dachangshi has occurred a supernatural event, report as an S-level supernatural event."

Wang Xiaoming looked at the expanse of cyan-black darkness outside the window, decisively issued the order.

It seems I inadvertently got involved in a supernatural event; looking at the unconscious Wang Xiaoqiang beside me, Wang Xiaoming thought silently.

Dajing City.

"What? Dachangshi has a supernatural event? Professor Wang is trapped in Dachangshi? Immediately notify everyone to hold a meeting!!"

The moment Wang Xiaoming's call was received, the entire headquarters exploded! Wang Xiaoming's value naturally needs no elaboration; even if Minister Cao Yanhu died, Wang Xiaoming cannot die! Because Cao Yanhu can be replaced, but Wang Xiaoming cannot; no one can replace him!

Within less than ten minutes, an emergency meeting unfolded in Dajing City.

"Professor Wang's importance is beyond doubt! Now, to rescue Professor Wang is the first task, handling Dachangshi's supernatural event as the second task, let's discuss! Half an hour! Within half an hour I want to see a detailed plan!"

Cao Yanhu, with a solemn expression, sat at the front of the meeting, setting the main tone without any hesitation!

Others also had no objections; Wang Xiaoming's importance warrants such caution; at critical moments, even if we abandon Dachangshi, we must rescue Wang Xiaoming!

At this moment, Cao Yanhu gestured to Zhao Jianguo to present the current situation, so that everyone present could have a general understanding.

"About twenty minutes ago, Dachangshi was enveloped by a cyan-black darkness; aside from our specially made satellite phones, no communication tool could contact Dachangshi, nor could one enter; thus we preliminarily judge this is the Ghost Realm! And judging by the size of the Ghost Realm, it is highly likely an S-level supernatural event."

Zhao Jianguo, with a solemn expression, displayed Dachangshi's satellite map before everyone; from the map one sees the entire Dachangshi shrouded in darkness; looking far away it seems as if Dachangshi was swallowed by a bloody maw, making one's heart tremble.
