Chapter 244: The Starving Ghost Kept In Ping An Hotel
Shen Lin’s manner of appearance had already left many people feeling incredulous, because this supernatural power that does not exist on the reality level, its terror level goes without saying.
But compared to everyone’s surprise, Shen Lin was the most shocked person on the scene.
Because this was the first failure of invading someone else’s memory since he became an anomaly.
“He is indeed also an anomaly.”
After greeting, Shen Lin, sitting on the chair, gravely glanced at Jiang Shan.
Although according to the plan book, the time for the meeting to convene had already arrived.
But the meeting had not yet convened.
Minister Sun Huafeng, Professor Wang Xiao Ming, and Old Qin, these key figures, had not arrived, seemingly delayed by something.
However, most people at the conference table were very silent, each doing their own thing, not appearing very anxious; some slept, some played on their mobile phones, some folded paper frogs, and even A Hong was touching up her makeup.
Such a lazy and undisciplined appearance made people very suspicious of what these people actually did.
Who could imagine that just this table of people could decide the life and death of countless people, and even influence the global situation.
Although the meeting was delayed for certain reasons, Jiang Shan showed no impatience at all, just quietly sitting in place smoking.
He could feel the faint peeping gazes on himself; after all, his body stood out awkwardly among this group of top ghost wielders of the new era.
No,
It should be said that his body was a unique anomaly among all ghost wielders.
Abundant emotion;
Healthy body;
Even Zhang Dong, at the end of ghost wielders, could not achieve such a degree.
After noticing that everyone was present, Jiang Shan removed the black long whip nailed into Ye Zhen’s body, “spoke kindly” for a while, and finally made him quiet down.
As time slowly passed minute by minute.
Twelve minutes after Shen Lin and Ye Zhen took their seats,
Sun Huafeng, Wang Xiao Ming, several accompanying staff, and a centenarian old man leaning on a cane finally arrived at the conference center.
They came?
The boring waiting time was finally over.
Many people began to perk up, their gazes fixed on Headquarters Minister Sun Huafeng, who was convening this meeting.
But Jiang Shan’s gaze was fixed on that centenarian old man leaning on a cane.
Old Qin.
This innate ghost wielder who spanned two eras, the old man who could talk to his future self, had always been the first person Jiang Shan desperately wanted to meet.
As if sensing something, Old Qin, upon just sitting down, immediately looked toward Jiang Shan’s position.
After their gazes met,
Old Qin nodded amiably.
“This smile… it seems after the meeting ends, there is indeed a need to chat with Old Qin.” Jiang Shan thought to himself.
Some things cannot be asked directly.
“It seems some people still haven’t arrived, whatever, since this matter is quite urgent, I’ll skip the useless opening remarks. This meeting is convened by me, the minister, with Professor Wang accompanying.”
After confirming everyone was present, Sun Huafeng glanced around, nodded, and said: “The main content of this meeting is to discuss how to respond to the crisis that Dajing City may face next. Everyone may know that Headquarters Vice Minister Zhao Jianguo went missing on the 15th of this month, that is, three days ago, within Dajing City.”
“The vice minister’s disappearance is an unprecedented turmoil for Headquarters, but that is not the reason I summoned you all. According to multiple verifications by me and Professor Wang, Comrade Zhao Jianguo has been affected by supernatural power. Perhaps he is not dead, but in fact, the original him is already dead.”
However, many people may still not fully understand the ins and outs of Comrade Zhao Jianguo’s incident. Because of the sudden situation and the confidentiality of special events, we can only explain it temporarily now. Trouble to open the slideshow.”
Soon, the staff turned on the projector.
On the screen were countless miniaturized pictures; on the already integrated PPT, there were all of Zhao Jianguo’s information, as well as the origin of Zhao Jianguo being affected by supernatural power.
Jiang Shan had no interest in such an explanation; he had participated in the entire incident from beginning to end, no one knew the situation of this shocking event better than him, but he was still willing to listen to Headquarters’ views, after all, behind Headquarters there were more than one think tank involved in the analysis and handling of the case.
“Since the original Comrade Zhao Jianguo is already dead, next I will use ‘Zhao’ as the codename to continue the introduction.”
“In just three short days, it used its position to directly or indirectly affect nearly a hundred high-level officials at Headquarters through a special recording possessing supernatural power, and this is only what has been identified.”
Looking at the grave expressions on everyone’s faces, Sun Huafeng knew that publicizing this matter was no different from a storm; if it could not be quickly and perfectly solved.
Then the eyes of the whole world would converge on Dajing City.
Not only that,
He was very familiar with the situation abroad; once Headquarters announced its downfall, what the domestic side would face would not just be internal turmoil, but also opportunistic moves by foreign mad dogs and wolves.
“This type of people affected by supernatural influence are indistinguishable from normal people, even with no supernatural power in their bodies. The only difference is their mindset, paranoid and mad. What Headquarters can do is detain and observe everyone who has come into contact with Zhao.”
With a heavy tone, Sun Huafeng gradually explained the origins and details of everything Zhao Jianguo had done recently.
Regarding the pattern of people affected by supernatural power, and some things they did.
The others remained silent, just quietly listening.
For top ghost wielders, they all had one thing in common: they were extremely attentive to collecting information and intelligence, because in handling supernatural events, any detail or mistake could decide life or death.
So they were all very serious.
After all, no one could be sure what supernatural event would occur next in Dajing City. If someone wanted to act arrogant, pretentious, or disdainful of listening, sorry, such people had long died and absolutely could not be alive to participate in this meeting.
When the others heard that this type of people whose memories were altered by supernatural means were indistinguishable from normal people, their faces immediately darkened.
No supernatural medium;
Most of the people affected by supernatural influence were Headquarters high-level officials;
The numbers uncountable, their plan unknown.
What kind of outrageous problem was this?
In other words,
What might happen next in Dajing City was completely unknowable. This temporary meeting said a whole bunch just to remind them and give them a heads-up?
This was knowingly sending them into the tiger’s den?
No wonder Headquarters only held this meeting for their group of captains to inform them of this news.
If this matter were made public, no one present dared to imagine what kind of turmoil Dajing City would face next.
“Most ghosts have a fixed behavioral purpose, like killing people to collect something, so Zhao… what exactly is Zhao trying to do?” someone asked seriously.
Wang Xiao Ming said: “Unclear.”
“How could it be unclear? Weren’t you handling this event all along?” someone asked in shock and doubt.
“Because by the time we discovered Zhao’s existence was problematic, it was already too late. Many things they did could no longer be investigated through normal channels by Headquarters. I can only say one thing, which Headquarters has confirmed.” Wang Xiao Ming said this, glanced at Jiang Shan, and continued:
“Zhao Jianguo is raising ghosts, and this ghost is the Starving Ghost.”
