Mysterious Awakening

Chapter 343: Chapter 342 Visit

Night.

Yang Jian didn’t sleep, but Xiong Wenwen, on the contrary, couldn’t stay awake even though she was frightened today, and fell asleep on the bed quickly, after all, she was just a child.

With his current physical condition, he could maintain a state similar to hibernation for a long time without sleep or drink.

As long as the environment allowed, Yang Jian could stay alert for an extended time. After all, the problem of the ghost’s revival had temporarily been solved, which gave him quite an advantage in some aspects.

"Feng Quan and Guo Fan have entered the hotel, and according to the signal, they haven’t come out. I don’t know if they can survive this incident, they better not get stuck in there, otherwise, it will only bring me big trouble.”

Yang Jian stepped out of the tent and frowned as he looked at the brightly lit Z city in the distance.

He wasn’t concerned about the two men’s lives, just worried that an accident with them might release the ghosts inside their bodies, complicating matters.

"Zhao Lei’s location is still unconfirmed, and the source of the ghost that can tamper with memories hasn’t been found. Today’s operation was indeed somewhat of a failure. If Xiong Wenwen could have predicted the identity of that ghost, everything would have been much easier. It’s only a pity that my Ghost Domain was restrained, making it impossible to keep that ghost inside for a long time, otherwise, I wouldn’t have been forced to withdraw.”

Yang Jian pondered his daytime experience at the hotel, vaguely feeling like the arrangement in the restaurant was a trap aimed at him.

Although he couldn’t be sure, he couldn’t help but suspect it.

"In the end, the lack of information is still too great. The ghost controlling Zhao Lei seems to have the intention of converging various supernatural events to increase complexity, to evade my investigations and attacks time and again. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have the confidence to stay in the hotel waiting for me, knowing full well I have the capability to imprison it,” he mused.

Indeed, Yang Jian had the ability to not fear the attacks of the memory-altering ghost, but he was concerned it would grow stronger, alter people’s memories, turn them into Ghost Slaves, and use them against him.

Ordinary people or ghost masters alike could potentially be manipulated by that ghost.

"Therefore, to deal with the memory-altering ghost, I must dissect these supernatural events one by one and prevent them from intersecting with each other.”

"However, such action is quite difficult, unwinding them layer by layer would be too time-consuming and energy-draining. The second method would be to confirm the ghost’s location and identity, and directly work out a way to imprison it.”

In his mind, he weighed the pros and cons, planning his next move.

Dealing with ghosts is a dangerous affair; even a special ghost master like Yang Jian might perish in a supernatural event.

As Yang Jian was deep in thought, suddenly, not far away, Zhang Gaoliang hurried out from another tent, rushing towards him.

"Zhang Gaoliang, running over here in the middle of the night, has something happened?” Yang Jian saw him and asked first.

Zhang Gaoliang wore an anxious expression: “The hospital called. It’s the attending physician’s report—Tong Qian’s condition is a bit tricky, and I think it’s necessary to discuss it with you.”

"Did she die?” Yang Jian asked calmly, prepared for the possibility of Tong Qian’s death.

Zhang Gaoliang said, “Her physical injuries have stabilized for the time being, which I suppose is good news. However, she still hasn’t woken up. I’m not quite sure of the details, but the hospital has notified Tong Qian’s family to prepare for the possibility of her becoming a vegetative state. After all, this isn’t a medical problem, it involves that thing.”

"A vegetative state?” Yang Jian’s expression shifted: “She can’t be woken up?”

"That seems to be the case.”

Yang Jian checked the time: “How far is the hospital from here? I’d like to see the situation myself. Whether Tong Qian can wake up safely affects my next steps. I need to ascertain her condition.”

"It’s at The Third Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Z city, not far from here.”

"Is Xiong Wenwen safe here?” Yang Jian looked back at the tent.

"There won’t be any problems. The area is under martial law. Even though it seems quiet at night, it’s actually tight inside and loose outside. Unless permission is granted, no one is allowed to enter or exit at will. That’s the arrangement from higher up,” Zhang Gaoliang said.

Yang Jian said, “Arrange for someone to stay here and watch, no, two people. If anything happens, notify me immediately, and I will rush back.”

He was worried that Xiong Wenwen might have an accident when he was gone.

This troublesome kid could only predict the future but couldn’t protect himself. If something really happened, even if he foresaw it, with just a child’s ability, survival would be difficult. So he needed to be paired with someone like Yang Jian, who had strong ghost-controlling capabilities.

"Okay, I’ll arrange it right now.” Zhang Haw immediately notified the security personnel to protect Xiong Wenwen.

"Let’s go.”

After making sure everything was in order, Yang Jian and Zhang Gaoliang hurried to The Third Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

The Third Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Dachang City is the best hospital in the city.

And to save Tong Qian, Dachang City’s only international ghost controller, all sorts of medical resources naturally leaned toward this hospital. With current medical technology, as long as it wasn’t an incurable disease, there was still time for life-saving interventions.

Moreover, the physical injuries Tong Qian had sustained weren’t serious.

But because she was involved in a supernatural incident, she remained in a coma, with no signs of waking up.

Very soon,

Yang Jian and Zhang Gaoliang arrived at the hospital.

It too was under martial law, especially the floor where the ward was located, with security guards on rotation. Zhang Gaoliang had to show his credentials before being allowed to visit.

In a special ward,

Tong Qian was wearing a hospital gown, her head wrapped in bandages and a medical head cover, lying in bed pale-faced and unconscious.

To the side, various authoritative experts and well-known local doctors gathered, observing her condition. But seeing their furrowed brows, it was clear that the process was not going smoothly.

"Doctors, experts, how is Tong Qian doing? Can you tell me?” Yang Jian walked in and got straight to the point.

Five or six middle-aged doctors turned to look at him and were momentarily taken aback.

Zhang Gaoliang then showed his ID and said, “This is Yang Jian, Dachang City’s international ghost controller. He is in charge of this case, and we hope the doctors can cooperate with our work.”

"Hello, I am the lead doctor, Qian Zhiqiang.” One doctor stepped forward, giving Yang Jian a keen once-over.

From the doctor’s perspective, the Yang Jian in front of them was very young and in odd health, breathing heavily and with an irregular heartbeat, as if he had an illness. Yet upon shaking hands, he exuded an indefinable chill and a terrifyingly inhuman, powerful grip.

"Hello, Doctor Qian, could you tell me specifically about Tong Qian’s condition?” Yang Jian shook his hand and asked earnestly.

"The patient currently doesn’t have too many problems. Before she was brought to the hospital, she had multiple fractures, internal bleeding, and severe scalp trauma… But these are not the most critical issues. The main problem lies here.” Doctor Qian pointed to his own head.
