Mysterious Awakening

Chapter 155: Follow closely

In the face of supernatural events, there is no place in the world that is absolutely safe.

Even the presidential palace, if it's unlucky enough to encounter a ghost, someone will still die.

Although gold cannot be affected by the power of evil spirits, if you hide in a golden coffin, you can indeed sleep soundly. But isn't that just waiting for death?

As long as you want to live, you cannot escape the influence of evil spirits.

Even if there is a ghost tamer by your side protecting you 24/7, it can only isolate most of the danger. If you accidentally encounter one of the top three ghosts on the leaderboard, you're still done for. And with the outbreak of supernatural events, many more terrifying ghosts are constantly emerging, and many supernatural events may not even be recorded.

It's not uncommon for accidents to happen at the police station.

After all, in front of evil spirits, all living beings are equal.

At this moment, Yang Jian began to observe everything around him.

In the hall, the police officers were isolating the crowd and evacuating the people. The scene was a bit chaotic, but he was certain that the other "Zhang Yuan" was still here and had not left.

As for the top scholar trapped in the mirror, he didn't bother with him.

If he couldn't find that ghost, Yang Jian couldn't enter the mirror to help. The only chance to save him was to find that ghost and drive it back into the mirror, creating an opportunity to save the person.

The moment reality and the mirror connect is the best time to save someone.

"Yang Jian, what are you looking for? I can help you adjust the surveillance cameras in the police station." Captain Liu said, "As long as I can help, just tell me."

"I have encountered that ghost before, and it's strange. It doesn't kill or cause trouble. Its only goal is to come out of the mirror, and it needs a living person as a substitute to enter the mirror. Zhang Yuan replaced that ghost and entered the mirror, so the ghost in the mirror also replaced him and became Zhang Yuan."

Yang Jian squinted his eyes and said, "Finding him is the key to solving this supernatural event."

"Is there really another Zhang Yuan in the station?" Captain Liu still couldn't believe it.

Although Yang Jian didn't say it, he already felt a bit creepy.

If the real Zhang Yuan was trapped in the mirror, then the fake Zhang Yuan, without a doubt... was a ghost.

How could such a terrifying thing have infiltrated the police station?

"I hope he is still here, but I can't be completely sure. If he has already left, then the situation will be more complicated." Yang Jian said.

Captain Liu immediately gritted his teeth and said, "Xiao Zhu, check the surveillance cameras and find Zhang Yuan's location. If anyone finds Zhang Yuan, report it immediately. Remember, the current Zhang Yuan is the enemy, so be careful when contacting him."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expressions became serious, realizing that something was not right and starting to feel uneasy.

"Why are you still standing here? Take action!" Captain Liu shouted again.

Only then did everyone suppress their inner anxiety and start to act.

"I'll go outside and keep an eye out. Contact me immediately when you find him." Yang Jian said.

"Okay, thank you for your help." Captain Liu said.

Yang Jian didn't choose to stay here because there were too many people and it was chaotic. He had to distance himself from the crowd and ensure his own safety before he could do anything.

Without knowing where that ghost was, he wouldn't expose himself to danger.

Helping is a duty, but not a responsibility.

That responsibility belongs to Zhao Kaiming.

So he wouldn't risk his life.

After coming outside, he found a corner with no one around and stood there, while keeping an eye on anyone entering or leaving the police station.

However, there were many people in the police station, so it would take some time to find Zhang Yuan.

"Wait... I just remembered, that ghost didn't come for me. This is certain, but I overlooked someone." At this moment, Zhang Wei's name suddenly popped into Yang Jian's mind.

He was initially involved in this supernatural event.

Now he was detained.

And that ghost followed him to the police station.

It couldn't be a coincidence.

"So, whether that ghost replaced Shangguan Yun or this Zhang Yuan, its real purpose is to contact Zhang Wei?" Yang Jian's face changed slightly.

"Wait, that's not very likely. After the ghost replaced Shangguan Yun, it planned to leave directly and didn't cause any trouble for Zhang Wei. So the idea that it came for Zhang Yuan doesn't hold up."

"Unless... that ghost can only appear near Zhang Wei."

Zhang Wei's home, the restaurant where he treated guests, the KTV where he treated guests, and the police station where he was detained... all the places where the ghost appeared were places he had been.

So it turned out that the ghost had been following Zhang Wei all along.

Wherever he appeared, the ghost would appear.

As for whom the ghost would target, there was no restriction.

"So that's how it is." Yang Jian finally deduced the pattern of the ghost's actions.

As for the ghost's purpose, it wasn't important.

What was important was what strange things Zhang Wei had done recently to attract the attention of such a ghost.

While Yang Jian was contemplating, he suddenly sensed something vaguely. The ghost eye under his flesh had a kind of tingling sensation.

This was a certain kind of connection between evil spirits.The more terrifying the ghost, the stronger Yang Jian's perception was, something he had come to understand deeply.

Almost subconsciously, he lifted his head to look upstairs.

At this moment, in the corridor of the fourth floor, through the glass, a person in uniform, resembling a police officer, was slowly passing by with his head slightly lowered.

His face was reflected on the glass, clearly visible. The face, strikingly similar to Officer Zhang Yuan's, was deathly pale without a trace of color.

"As expected... it's still here, this ghost chose not to leave." Yang Jian's eyes narrowed.

Immediately, he called Captain Liu: "Captain Liu, there's no need to check the surveillance anymore. I just noticed something on the fourth floor. That thing is currently heading towards the fifth floor. I suggest you abandon all searches below the fourth floor, directly seal off the corridors and elevators, and start a gradual search from the fourth floor."

"Alright, I understand. Also, I found through the surveillance, just as you said, Zhang Yuan was seen having lunch in the cafeteria at noon. He appeared in the lobby just half an hour ago... So that thing has been here all along, infiltrating us under Zhang Yuan's identity. No wonder we didn't notice." Captain Liu's voice was somewhat suppressed.

He must be looking quite grim at the moment.

A ghost had infiltrated their ranks, and they hadn't noticed at all.

This wasn't just a special incident, it was a humiliation to him.

As a captain, dealing with cases every day, yet a special case had occurred right under his nose, and he hadn't noticed.

Fortunately, no major incident had occurred yet. If something serious had happened, Captain Liu felt he would regret it for the rest of his life.

"Don't worry too much about it, find him, and I'll handle it." Yang Jian said.

"Don't worry, that thing won't get away." Captain Liu said; "We'll keep in touch. I'll notify you if anything happens."

"Try to pin him down." Yang Jian said.
