Chapter 512: Chapter 509 Chen Yi’s Incident
The traffic on the road was heavy, and the streets were somewhat congested.
But to this, Yang Jian had grown accustomed, after all, this was J City, where the flow of people was vast.
He chatted casually with Wan Delu in the car.
Wan Delu wasn’t particularly interested in matters of the Supernatural Circle, perhaps out of superstition he did not inquire much; he was most concerned about the future situation and prospects, focusing on his own safety and fortune.
“That makes sense. If unlucky incidents like that were commonplace, things would’ve been in chaos long ago,” Wan Delu nodded in agreement, feeling much more at ease.
“But one can’t be certain about the future. If the situation worsens, the truly frightening thing may no longer be the supernatural events but the global panic they trigger,” Yang Jian said, “You know, with so many people in the world, once the panic starts, it’s almost impossible to control.”
Upon hearing this, Wan Delu was shocked, and his complexion changed.
Although Yang Jian was not explicit, he understood the implications and the fear behind the words “global panic.”
Natural disasters might not be frightening, but man-made disasters are the most terrifying.
History has proven this time and again.
“It shouldn’t reach that point, right?” Wan Delu could only say sullenly.
Yang Jian shrugged, “Who knows? Anyway, I’m only responsible for Dachang City. I can’t do anything about other places, so as long as I’m alive, there won’t be problems in Dachang City. For this, I’ve made some preparations, even started a company. If President Wan is interested, you could invest.”
“Oh, a company founded by Brother Tui? I’m very interested. Can you tell me more about it? How much would be appropriate for me to invest?” Wan Delu perked up, this was something he felt more confident about.
“I can’t go into detail because I am not managing the company. I don’t understand the business side of things. It’s basically about considering future security, covering various aspects, mainly operating within Dachang City,”
Yang Jian said casually, “As for the investment, President Wan, you can decide for yourself. But I have to make it clear beforehand, this kind of investment won’t yield returns; it’s basically like losing money. There’s a high chance it will just be wasted… If you’re interested, you can go to Dachang City and find out for yourself.”
“Alright, I’ll come to bother you when the time comes,” Wan Delu said.
Soon.
As the vehicle continued onwards and passed a street, the driver suddenly said, “Boss, the road up ahead is closed, we have to turn around.”
“Road closed?” Wan Delu looked up and indeed saw vehicles ahead constantly turning around.
“No wonder the traffic’s been so bad all the way, that’s the reason. Then let’s turn around quickly and find another route back to the hotel, and be mindful of the time; don’t be delayed.”
“Alright, boss,” the driver replied.
Yang Jian saw the person outside through the glass and immediately recognized him.
Chen Yi, one of the three people in charge of J City.
“Chen Yi, just say what you want. I have things to attend to and don’t have time to chat with you here. Isn’t it impolite to stop someone’s car like this?” Yang Jian didn’t get out of the vehicle but lowered the window and spoke with a calm expression.
“Yang Jian, I am working. Cooperate with me, please,” Chen Yi said.
Yang Jian replied, “If it’s just a matter of cooperating, I don’t mind. Let’s hear it, how can I assist you?”
Chen Yi leaned on the car door, looking at Yang Jian, and said, “Zhang Hui is dead, right there in that hotel ahead. I’ve checked, and there are no suspicious traces. I’ve already taken care of the aftermath, but I think there’s more to it. You should know something since you were staying at Ping’an Hotel before and had met him.”
Yang Jian’s gaze flickered slightly, having not expected to so inconveniently pass by Chen Yi’s place of work, no wonder he was stopped for questioning.
“I don’t know much. I wasn’t close to him, and regarding the specifics, didn’t you send someone to Ping’an Hotel to inquire? You should get the report soon, so there’s no need to stop me specifically to ask,” Yang Jian said.
“You know I sent someone to investigate? Good, then you should also know that Zhang Hui’s death is quite unusual,” Chen Yi stated.
Yang Jian replied, “There’s a high likelihood it was a homicide.”
“Bullshit.”
perate and help me investigate.”
“You want me to help you look into Zhang Hui’s cause of death?”
Yang Jian smiled and shook his head, “You know the rules very well. This is J City, your jurisdiction. At most, I am here as a tourist. If you need my help, go apply at headquarters first, then have Shen Liang notify me, and in the end, it still depends on whether I agree or not. This whole process would probably take at least three days.”
“Headquarters is busy with more important matters, and I don’t have time to follow procedures. My intuition tells me that thing is nearby, and if you join me, with my Ghost Domain, we can find it quickly,” Chen Yi said.
“Setting aside whether your intuition is right or wrong, what if I do help you find that thing? What then?” Yang Jian asked.
“Of course, you’ll help me deal with it,” Chen Yi said immediately.
Yang Jian shook his head, “I can confirm the situation for you, but to ask for my help with handling it, I cannot agree. It’s the responsibility of the person whose turf it is to deal with these things. Do I really need to remind you of that?”
“What did you say?” Chen Yi became furious upon hearing Yang Jian’s words.
“My meaning is very clear. If you didn’t hear me properly, I can repeat it,” Yang Jian said.
“Fine, get lost. I don’t need your help,” Chen Yi said angrily.
Yang Jian spoke, “No need to get angry. Anyone else you ask would also refuse you. No one wants to willingly get involved in such matters. When I faced danger at the training base, didn’t nobody come to rescue me? I relied on myself, and afterward, I didn’t blame any of the people in charge, right?”
s words.
Whether it was the Ghost Envoy incident or the Hungry Ghost incident in Dachang City, he had not helped Yang Jian.
Likewise, Yang Jian was under no obligation to help him, and support had to be requested from headquarters.
Thus, this refusal had no issues whatsoever.
