Mysterious Resurrection: Starting with Controlling Sadako
Chapter 28 The Ethereal Ringing of Bells
Chapter 28 The Ethereal Ringing of Bells
Xia Wei, who had been silent all along, suddenly lit up and immediately followed.
As the daughter of a shareholder, she came here to work as a secretary in order to help her father resolve this matter quickly.
Now it seems that she didn't even need to subtly push or say anything; the new person in charge showed remarkable efficiency, preparing to set off immediately after speaking. This is wonderful.
Upon hearing Wang Liang's words, the aggrieved party, Xia Feng, also looked surprised and quickly added:
"Ah, now, okay, okay, thank you Mr. Wang. Fuchuang Real Estate will invest another 200 million, no, 1 billion, in Tianhuan. I'll have to trouble you for the rest of the time, Mr. Wang."
He was also secretly surprised by the efficiency of the new city's head.
The previous Sun Su was not this efficient. In the past, when shareholders had problems, Sun Su would deal with them, but not as decisively.
Perhaps the reason for this difference is not only personality, but also ability?
Xia Feng kept thinking to himself that this new person in charge was a worthwhile investment, that having his daughter work as his secretary was definitely the right decision, and that Wang Liang was someone he should definitely cultivate a relationship with.
After leaving Tianhuan Building, Wang Liang did not travel with the others; instead, he drove alone and headed to Xiaolan Village first.
Upon arriving at the dilapidated Lan Village demolition area, Wang Liang got out of the car, touched the coffin nail in the pocket of his black coat to confirm its presence, and then walked towards the entrance of Lan Village.
A cordon was set up around the entrance to Lancun. Some uniformed people had already been notified and arrived in advance, standing outside the cordon to wait.
After Wang Liang approached, a middle-aged man in uniform walked over, saluted, and said:
"Manager Wang, I have received the message. My name is Wen Yu, and I am the captain in charge of such incidents in Da'an City. I will be responsible for communicating with you regarding these matters from now on."
"Hello, Captain Wen, just call me Wang Liang. Leave this to me. Is the containment container ready?"
“It’s already here, over there.” Captain Wen pointed to a gold box on a truck on the left.
Wang Liang nodded and casually asked:
Is anyone still in the village?
"No, we evacuated people immediately after the incident, although a few people died during the evacuation."
Wen responded, looking tired and helpless. Ordinary people are too vulnerable in this kind of situation. The things he has encountered in recent years have completely shattered his worldview.
After asking Wen about some basic information, Wang Liang pulled up the cordon and walked into the village.
"I understand. You've done your best, so there's no need to blame yourself. I'm going to start taking action now."
"Is there anything we can do?" Captain Wen shouted from behind.
"Just wait for me to come out."
As Wang Liang walked into the village, he saw that a row of brick and mud houses had been demolished, and several unmanned excavators and bulldozers were scattered around.
The evacuation was so rushed that the demolition crew didn't even have time to move the machines out.
The cloudy sky obscured the sun, making the sky appear somewhat gloomy.
Wang Liang walked through a pile of ruins to the front of the construction site, which, according to Wen, was the place where the first accident occurred—a dilapidated house that had partially collapsed.
In fact, this was the first time he had seriously dealt with a paranormal event, but Wang Liang wasn't too nervous.
As he walked, he wondered where the vengeful spirit might be and what its abilities might be. This paranormal event was classified as a C-level threat, although threat level is not the same as terror level. There are instances where a C-level threat vengeful spirit could be as terrifying as an S-level spirit, and even top-tier ghost tamers could not defeat it.
But this one doesn't seem like it at all. The vengeful ghost in this story not only didn't have the ability to travel to other places, but also didn't kill many people after appearing in the village. In total, the number of deaths was less than ten.
If it were truly terrifying, it's impossible that only so many people died. Those who evacuated from the village had no chance of escaping alive after the vengeful ghosts began killing people.
Of course, it's also possible that this vengeful ghost is of a high level of terror, but its killing patterns are very demanding. That's also possible, but unlikely.
Upon approaching, an excavator was parked in front of the partially collapsed house. Wang Liang followed the gap created by the excavator and entered the house.
As Wang Liang approached the half-ruined house, he could faintly smell a foul odor.
After he entered the house, the stench became even more pronounced, to the point that it was almost unbearable.
Although he became a ghost tamer, with the help of the system, he could directly control the dead ghost. Compared to other ghost tamers, Wang Liang's physical condition, emotions, and five senses were quite normal, and he was minimally affected by the ghost.
Having experienced few things like this before, he instinctively frowned and felt uncomfortable upon smelling the stench.
However, this didn't make Wang Liang so disgusted that he vomited. Having just transmigrated, he had already experienced the baptism of death, corpses, and vengeful ghosts, so his current tolerance was indeed much stronger than before.
He simply frowned and endured the repulsive stench as he searched and observed the house.
After searching, Wang Liang finally found a body in a corner of the living room on the first floor.
Now, almost all that remains is a yellowed skeleton, its flesh rotting into pus and oozing bodily fluids that have congealed on the ground into a pool—a truly disgusting sight.
However, although it also emitted a strong odor, it was not the source of the stench; it was merely a rotting skeleton with nothing else special about it.
After confirming that the bones on the ground were fine, Wang Liang stood up and prepared to leave the house to take a look around outside.
The vengeful ghost must have stayed here before, but it seems to have left now.
As soon as he stepped outside, a gentle breeze blew in, dispersing some of the stench and easing Wang Liang's furrowed brows.
Jingle bell bell~
A faint, almost inaudible sound of wind chimes reached Wang Liang's ears, causing him to immediately turn his head and look back at the half-destroyed house behind him.
"Where did that ringtone come from?"
The sound of the bell was also wrong, carrying an eerie ethereal quality that stirred within Wang Liang a palpitation that compelled him to immediately search for that bell.
Wang Liang was puzzled. He hadn't found any bells hanging on the house during his search, and he would have missed it if it weren't for the breeze.
Wang Liang walked back to the half-collapsed house behind him, heading towards the direction from which the faint sound of wind chimes had just come.
He went through the partially collapsed opening, checked the kitchen on the side again, found nothing unusual, and then turned to the same place, to the bedroom next door.
This time, Wang Liang's inspection was even more thorough. He moved the bed out of its original position, disassembled the upper and lower wooden boards, threw all the clothes out of the wardrobe, and even moved the wardrobe against the wall to the side, but unfortunately, he found nothing.
