"This Zhao Kaiming, I don't know if he can survive the attack of the Ghost Knocker. If he can survive that supernatural event, it means this guy is very dangerous. If he dies , it would be a good thing for me."
Yang Jian put away his satellite positioning phone and calculated in his heart.
The Ghost Knocker event is currently an extremely terrifying supernatural event, and the chances of surviving are not high.
Without knowing its rules, the Huanggang Village incident is a fifty-fifty chance, and both are almost unsolvable.
"I found Zhang Wei. He was indeed arrested and taken to the detention center. It was Xiao Zhang and his team who arrested him for cracking down on prostitution last night. However, he has no criminal record, and his confession was probably induced by someone. He can be released after the procedures are done."
At this time, a police officer walked over and reported.
Captain Liu said, "If there is nothing wrong, then release him. There are a lot of cases recently, so solve the cases that can be solved as soon as possible. You take Yang Jian and go, let him pick up Zhang Wei." The source of this content ɪs novel※fire.net
"Yes, Captain." The police officer nodded.
"Then Captain Liu, you go ahead. I'll leave first." Yang Jian greeted.
Yang Jian smiled and said, "Captain Liu, please don't misunderstand me. In fact, I have solved several supernatural events. The International Criminal Police Organization has records of them, but they are not known to ordinary people. The Furun Department Store incident, the Huanggang Village incident outside the city... and the supernatural events I will encounter in the future, I will definitely help. It's just that I can't meet with Zhao Kaiming in some public cases."
"I hope Captain Liu can understand the need for appropriate caution."
"I'm relieved to hear that from you." Captain Liu said seriously.
"You're welcome. After all, it's all about solving cases." Yang Jian said.
He felt that having an official identity as a cover was good, at least it would be convenient to deal with in the future. The supernatural events he handled would be constantly reported and recorded in the files.
If one day Yang Jian becomes an international criminal police officer, his contributions will definitely be greater than others'.
Promotions and such will also be easier.
So the benefits brought by solving a supernatural event are huge, but currently, some benefits cannot be seen.
"Liu, Captain Liu, something bad happened."
Just as Yang Jian was about to leave with the police officer, another police officer rushed over, directly in front of Captain Liu, with a pale and panicked face.
"Xiao Zhu, what happened? Don't panic when something happens. We are the police. If even we panic, how can we bring a sense of trust and security to the people? Take it easy and tell me slowly." Captain Liu comforted him.
The police officer named Zhu pointed to a place in the lobby and said, "There, in the mirror, a colleague is trapped inside."
"What? Is this possible?" Captain Liu's face immediately changed upon hearing this.
He then immediately looked at Yang Jian.
Upon hearing this, Yang Jian frowned. This situation... feels somewhat familiar.
Someone trapped inside a mirror?
Could it be the ghost he encountered at the KTV? Did that ghost come here?
Dachang City is so big, why did he happen to run into it?
Coincidence, or inevitability?
"Yang Jian, what do you think?" Captain Liu asked.
Yang Jian said, "Without a doubt, it is a special event. Captain Liu, you should be mentally prepared. Of course, if you need help, I am willing to give you face, although it is not my responsibility. But if I encounter it, it seems unreasonable not to lend a hand."
At this moment, he didn't mind selling a favor.
Perhaps there will be places where he will need Captain Liu's help in the future. After all, he has a rough idea of the abilities of that ghost, and he also needs to leave a good impression here in the official department, which is beneficial to his future development.
"That's great. Please come with me." Captain Liu said gratefully.
He then instructed, "Xiao Zhu, order the others to immediately evacuate the people in the lobby. Seal off the area where the incident occurred and establish a cordon. We have professionals here to handle it. No one else is allowed to approach. I don't need to explain the procedures for handling special cases, right?"
"Yes, Captain. I'll take care of it." Officer Zhu immediately ran off.
In a short while, several police officers evacuated the crowd in the lobby and isolated the mirror standing next to the lobby, setting up a cordon.Calling it a mirror was a bit of a stretch. It was merely a shiny exterior wall panel. However, due to its reflective nature, it could cast human shadows, thus resembling a mirror.
"Liu's experience is indeed profound," Yang Jian commented as they walked.
He was already familiar with the patterns of the mirror ghost, so this case wasn't difficult for him to solve.
However, Liu's handling of the case was indeed seasoned. He didn't ask about the situation first, but immediately evacuated and isolated the area. If there were any bystanders, he would disperse them immediately.
This was the most appropriate response for ordinary people facing supernatural events.
The priority was to minimize unnecessary casualties.
If they rashly intervened, it would only increase the casualties among innocent police officers.
"You're joking. What I did wasn't profound experience, it was just the only option I had," Liu said with a bitter smile. "During the last special incident in the city, I could only watch helplessly as vibrant lives jumped in despair from the fifteenth floor. I couldn't even provide assistance. I didn't expect something to happen in the station this time."
"And this time, it's one of our colleagues. Yang Jian, I really need your help this time. They are all good colleagues. If they die on duty, I have nothing to say. But they can't die inexplicably at the hands of those things. Such a death is meaningless."
He was incredibly serious, even pleading.
"I'll do my best," was all Yang Jian could reply.
Although he was somewhat confident, who could confidently promise in the face of supernatural events?
Liu and Yang Jian arrived at the hall.
By this time, quite a few police officers had gathered nearby, along with some bystanders who were unaware of the truth. However, due to the isolation, they could only watch the mirror from a distance, unable to get close.
The other officers saluted one after another.
"No need for salutes, what's the situation?" Liu asked.
"The victim is our colleague, named Zhang Yuan, 27 years old..."
An officer began reading from a file.
He was interrupted by Liu before he could finish: "I know about Zhang Yuan's situation. Don't waste time reading the file. I want to know when the incident happened."
"The earliest discovery was made by Xiao Zhang. He saw Zhang Yuan trapped in the mirror ten minutes ago. But according to the surveillance footage... the incident should have happened this morning," the officer said.
"What? One of our officers had an accident, and it took half a day to discover it?" Liu was shocked.
The officer looked somewhat ashamed: "I'm sorry, Captain. We've been busy these past few days and didn't notice."
Yang Jian interjected: "Liu, you can't blame others for not being careful. If I'm not mistaken, besides the Zhang Yuan in the mirror, there's another Zhang Yuan in the police station. Because he showed up, no one noticed that a person was missing. Otherwise, how could his colleagues not notice that someone was missing during their daily work?"
"How is that possible? It's already unbelievable that someone is trapped in a mirror, and now you're saying there's another Zhang Yuan in the police station?" Liu was taken aback.
"If it's not strange, how could it be considered a special event? In the face of such things, even stranger things can happen," Yang Jian said.
Looking at the situation here, he was certain.
The ghost in the mirror didn't follow him here. Otherwise, the incident wouldn't have happened in the morning.
Could it really be a coincidence?
Yang Jian had a vague feeling that it couldn't be.
In the vast city of Da Chang, encountering the same ghost within a day was unlikely. There must be some factor he had overlooked.
"Can we go over and take a look?" Liu asked.
"That's fine," Yang Jian replied.
As they approached, they indeed saw a police officer sitting in the mirror, looking desperate and helpless. He had written many words in the mirror, including a lot of hint information. But because people passing by were too hurried, they didn't notice. Those who did pass by would only think it was an inconspicuous shadow and wouldn't pay too much attention.
"It's exactly the same as Shangguan Yun's situation," Yang Jian thought to himself.
"Zhang Yuan, can you hear me?" Liu shouted.
Yang Jian said, "It's no use, he can't hear you. But he can see the outside. If you really want to communicate, you can write to him. But... there's no need for that now."
"Why is that?" Liu asked in surprise.
"Because it's treating the symptoms, not the cause," Yang Jian said, squinting his eyes as he began to look around.
His intuition told him that the "Zhang Yuan" must still be here and hadn't left.
