Mysterious Resurrection: Starting with Controlling Sadako

Chapter 232 Yang Jian Goes Online
Yang Jian hanged himself in front of the mirror for seven days.

Wang Liang was carrying a lantern, sitting somewhat bored on the steps in front of the villa, making a phone call.

"Wang Liang, how is Yang Jian doing?" a female voice came from the phone.

"Liu Xiaoyu? It's you again. You've practically become my hotline these past few days. Do you like Yang Jian? As a teacher, I have to be concerned about my student's love life. You can just say so."

At the headquarters switchboard room, Liu Xiaoyu went to Su Xinxi's private switchboard room to contact Wang Liang.

Hearing this, her face flushed slightly, but she said:

"Headquarters sent me to inquire. Yang Jian is now the official person in charge of Dachang City. If something happens and there's no news for seven days, they have to ask you about it."

"Alright, I told you it's nothing. No matter what, Yang Jian will be there. Headquarters is really just being wise after the event. Why didn't they come to support Yang Jian and provide some good stuff when he was waiting to die?"

"Wang Liang, don't say that about headquarters. Team Leader Zhao explained Yang Jian's situation to Professor Wang and asked him to develop a plan for Yang Jian."

"But time was too tight, and headquarters was only relieved when you returned, since you, as his teacher, wouldn't abandon Yang Jian," Liu Xiaoyu explained.

Wang Liang said, "Oh, I see. Don't worry, there's a problem with my plan for Yang Jian. I need headquarters to provide four red ghost candles as support. Please let Captain Zhao know as soon as possible."

"what?"

Liu Xiaoyu was taken aback, unsure whether Wang Liang was telling the truth or not.

She thought about their conversation; it must have been fake.
Liu Xiaoyu was about to say something more when Wang Liang suddenly said:

"and many more."

After waiting for seven days, Wang Liang finally sensed something different coming from the villa behind him.

He grinned and said into the phone:
"Give the phone to Su Xinxi."

"What's wrong, Wang Liang?" Su Xinxi immediately answered the phone.

"I've taken on the island nation matter. Go contact them now. I'll send you the price I need in a bit. Tell them directly that there's no room for negotiation, but they can give it to me after I've resolved it. Also, Yang Jian will be going with me. That's all, bye."

After the call ended, Su Xinxi was shocked by the information in Wang Liang's words at headquarters.

For a moment, it was unclear whether people were shocked by Wang Liang's willingness to get involved in the S-level 'overpopulation' incident or surprised that Yang Jian, who was on the verge of being resurrected by a vengeful ghost, would reappear seven days later.

She had previously mentioned to Wang Liang the S-level 'over-birth' incident in the island nation, and that the island nation had sought help from various countries.

But she didn't want Wang Liang to go; she only wanted him to know about this important event in the paranormal community out of a sense of responsibility.

But now, Su Xinxi and Liu Xiaoyu exchanged a glance.

At this moment, Liu Xiaoyu's eyes showed both surprise and worry. She wondered why Wang Liang still wanted to bring Yang Jian along, since he had only just come back to life.

"We need to tell Captain Zhao." Su Xinxi stood up.

This is the Guanjiang residential area.

As soon as Wang Liang hung up the phone, a strange, blood-red light spread out from the fifth floor of the villa behind him.

In the blink of an eye, the red light covered the entire villa and quickly spread outwards, encompassing a radius of ten kilometers, covering a very large area.

However, the red light did not actually envelop Wang Liang.

Upon encountering Wang Liang, they bypassed him as if he were a watershed, finding it difficult to pull him into the Ghost Realm.

The red light disappeared, and Yang Jian's figure instantly appeared in front of Wang Liang.

He clutched an old rope in his hand, with a withered finger tied to the end of the rope, and a ghost mirror stood beside him.

"I succeeded, Teacher Wang." Yang Jian's tone was cold, flat, and devoid of emotion.

This wasn't because Yang Jian had any issues with Wang Liang; it was simply that Yang Jian hadn't yet adapted to his current situation.

His body looked somewhat stiff, and the exposed skin had obvious lividity.

There were bruises around his neck from being forcibly twisted, making him look like he wasn't even alive anymore.

Yang Jian's gaze toward Wang Liang was also quite calm, with little emotional fluctuation, though deep down there was still some gratitude and doubt.

"My current vengeful spirit has disappeared, the ghost shadow has crashed, the ghost eye has been completely suppressed, and the ghost domain has expanded to a great extent."

However, it seems there's been a problem. My body wasn't fully revived by the ghost mirror; when I first woke up, my head was upside down.

Yang Jian raised his hands; half of them were warm, while the other half were cold, stiff, and covered in lividity.

Wang Liang looked Yang Jian up and down and smiled:

"Don't worry, radical solutions are never perfect. As long as the problem of the vengeful ghost is solved, the physical issues are minor. There are plenty of supernatural things that can help you solve them."

Wang Liang stood up.

"Try to adjust to your current situation. You know about what happened in Japan, right?"

"An S-level over-birth incident? Liu Xiaoyu mentioned it to me briefly, but I was almost dead at the time and really didn't have the mind to care about it, especially since it happened in Japan. Wait, is it Zhao Kaiming and the wishing ghost baby?"

Having escaped a life-or-death crisis, and with Wang Liang specifically mentioning it, Yang Jian quickly realized what was going on.

“That’s right, I prefer to call it the Starving Ghost Incident,” Wang Liang said. “I took on this task because I had to go anyway, and now it’s a good opportunity to make some money off the island nation. You’re coming with me this time.”

“No problem.” A fierce glint flashed in Yang Jian’s eyes. “It’s a good opportunity to settle accounts with Zhao Kaiming. I haven’t forgotten about Yan Li’s matter.”

"He will die, die in regret."

When talking about Zhao Kaiming, Wang Liang's tone was devoid of emotion; he simply stated Zhao Kaiming's fate.

"By the way, I will also bring Wang Shanshan this time. When you hanged yourself, your life force disappeared, and she also fell into a state of suspended animation because of your Ghost Slave Seal."

Her parents brought her body here to find you, and I've arranged for them to stay temporarily in a high-rise building over there. Go there later and revive Wang Shanshan.

"Fake death? I see. I noticed her and her parents as soon as I opened my Ghost Domain. They are indeed in this neighborhood."

Yang Jian's eyes seemed thoughtful, then he asked in confusion:
"But why bring Wang Shanshan to the island nation as well?"

"It's about an experiment, there's no risk to her. If it succeeds, hehe, I'll send you a little starving ghost."

"What?! So this is... stealing an S-class supernatural phenomenon?"

Yang Jian was shocked, and even his stiff face, which hadn't yet adjusted to the situation, twitched slightly.

"You'll see soon enough. Many supernatural phenomena that seem accidental are actually inevitable."

"But I haven't tried it, so I can't be 100% sure it will succeed. I'll just have to try it when the time comes, and I shouldn't get too excited yet," Wang Liang said.

"I understand." Yang Jian regained his composure.

Wang Liang took out a faded piece of human skin paper from inside his coat and tossed it to Yang Jian.

"Keep it."
