Mysterious Revival - Chapter 938 - 905: Control the Messenger

Top floor of Shangtong Tower in Dachang City.

Inside Yang Jian’s office, a meeting was held today. All team members were present, along with Liu Xiaoyu and several staff assisting her.

“Starting tomorrow, all buses in Dachang City will cease operations for three days, including passenger vehicles. I don’t want a single vehicle running on the roads of Dachang City. If there are any vehicles from out of town, they will be stopped directly. Liu Xiaoyu, can you handle that?”

During the meeting.

Yang Jian’s tone was cold, carrying an inexplicable sense of authority that commanded awe.

Liu Xiaoyu, dressed in her work uniform and sporting her signature twin ponytails, frowned. Instead of answering immediately, she glanced at a staff member beside her.

“Don’t worry, Captain Yang. It can be done.”

“Good. Additionally, starting immediately after this meeting, the area within a three-mile radius around the Chang’an Station intersection will be completely sealed off for four days. If there are residents, evacuate them all. I want a blockage set up there.”

Yang Jian tapped a location on the map of Dachang City.

A site suspected to be the location where the paranormal bus would appear was being cordoned off directly.

“That’s not an issue either. We already have a plan in place for this kind of situation. If needed, we can activate the lockdown protocol directly,” Liu Xiaoyu said promptly, exuding confidence.

After all, blocking off an area for a paranormal event within the city was a routine procedure. It just required reporting to headquarters.

“The most dangerous time will be around 9 PM three days from now. No one should be allowed into this sealed area before or after that time,” Yang Jian added.

Liu Xiaoyu replied, “Once the lockdown is in place, no one will be allowed near it.”

“Finally, starting today, monitor the movements of these individuals. They may arrive in Dachang City by plane, train, or private vehicle. Once discovered, contain them immediately. If they resist, take them out. Feng Quan, Tong Qian, you two will assist with this task.”

Yang Jian finished speaking and placed several character sketches on the conference table.

The drawings depicted figures such as Leuk Qingqing, Yang Xiaohua, Eagle, Wang Feng, Qin Kai, and Da Qiang—all couriers from the fourth floor of the post office.

With Yang Jian’s ability, he could sketch these portraits entirely from memory.

“This’ll be easy; I’ll get it done,” Feng Quan nodded.

Yang Jian reminded him, “Stay vigilant. Some of these people are already ghost riders and possess supernatural power. If there’s any issue, contact me immediately, and I’ll step in.”

“Understood,” Feng Quan responded, his demeanor turning serious.

Yang Jian continued, “Once all of these individuals have arrived, notify me right away. Afterward, gather everyone here to finalize our preparations for the paranormal event.”

Once more, he pointed to the same location.

Chang’an Intersection.

The station where the paranormal bus was expected to stop.

“Is it really that serious?” Huang Ziya asked, a bit incredulous.

“Prepare for the worst. If everything goes smoothly, that will be the best outcome,” Yang Jian said.

Because when the paranormal bus makes a stop, only two things could happen:

Either someone gets on, or someone gets off.

However, those who get off might not all be human—there could be vengeful spirits among them. That’s why Yang Jian wanted the most thorough preparations to prevent a paranormal outbreak in Dachang City.

The meeting continued.

This operation would mobilize all the forces within Dachang City, whether urban resources or ghost riders—they couldn’t afford to lose anyone.

“Oh, and Liu Xiaoyu, report to headquarters that I’m officially taking on the paranormal bus case.”

Yang Jian hadn’t forgotten that headquarters required captains to resolve at least one paranormal incident.

Since this case was already here, he might as well take it on and resolve it together.

Of course.

Yang Jian could not guarantee that he would be able to contain the paranormal bus; he was merely accepting the assignment. Everything would depend on the circumstances moving forward.

If an opportunity presented itself, he would take action.

…

By the meeting’s conclusion, the entire infrastructure of Dachang City had begun to operate.

The area near Chang’an Station Intersection was sealed off. All buses ceased operations. Feng Quan and Tong Qian led their team to monitor the arrival of the couriers from the post office’s fourth floor.

Before night fell, the preparations within Dachang City were nearly complete.

By dusk.

A private car exited the highway and entered Dachang City. However, upon approaching the city limits, the driver encountered roadblocks as numerous staff inspected passing vehicles.

“Routine check. Pull over and show your ID.” A staff member approached and knocked on the car window.

The window rolled down, revealing a stern-faced man. “Hold on, let me find my ID.”

“Here.” He handed his ID over.

The staff member glanced at it, then compared it to his records. His expression changed instantly as he triggered the alarm. Immediately, everyone in the vicinity closed in.

Armed personnel surrounded the vehicle, ready to shoot at the slightest resistance.

“You’re Eagle?”

The lead inspector questioned him, glaring. “Step out of the vehicle and come with us. Captain Yang has summoned you.”

“Captain Yang?”

Eagle’s expression shifted. “Do you mean Yang Jian?”

He immediately thought of Yang Jian. Back on the fourth floor of the post office, Li Yang had addressed him that way, and since Yang Jian operated in Dachang City, it wasn’t difficult to connect the dots.

“That’s right.”

“Don’t move!”

The leader barked sharply, noticing Eagle’s hand creeping toward the glove compartment.

At that moment.

All the armed personnel cocked their weapons and aimed at Eagle, while snipers locked onto his head from a distance.

“Just grabbing some personal items. Don’t mind, do you?”

Eagle forced a smile, cold sweat dripping down the back of his neck.

He could sense that even the slightest uncooperative gesture or suspicious move would get him riddled with bullets.

“We’ll take care of your belongings. Once they’ve been cleared and our captain approves, you’ll get them back,” the team leader said. “Now, step out of the car immediately.”

Unwilling to take risks, Eagle complied, raising his hands to signal cooperation.

Though his luggage contained critical supernatural items, under such circumstances, he had no choice but to hand them over.

“Take him away,” the leader ordered.

Like a criminal, Eagle was loaded into a specialized transport vehicle and escorted away.

He wasn’t the only one caught in such a situation.

At 8 PM that night.

At the Dachang City airport.

A casually dressed man in his early twenties, alighting from a plane, was similarly detained by a group of armed personnel.

“Qin Kai? Captain Yang has summoned you. Please cooperate.”

“Captain Yang? I see. Looks like that man has significant influence in Dachang City. Controlling the entire airport… and I only bought my ticket this afternoon.”

Qin Kai removed his sunglasses, frowning in surprise as he scanned the group of armed agents.

So this was the authority granted to those who handled paranormal events? Impressive, indeed.

“However, hasn’t your Captain Yang told you there are certain individuals you should refrain from provoking? Sheer numbers won’t be enough to detain me,” Qin Kai said, his expression darkening.

He had no intention of letting himself be controlled, leaving his life in Yang Jian’s hands.

“If you want to try something, go ahead. I’ll bury you here and now.”

A low, raspy voice echoed across the airport terminal.

Feng Quan emerged slowly from a nearby resting station. His complexion was unnaturally pale, and traces of unclean dirt clung to him.

As he approached, a dense fog began to swirl around the area.

“This is…”

Qin Kai’s face changed drastically, his demeanor turning grave. “Who are you?”

“Officer Feng Quan. I’m currently riding three ghosts. Want to test your chances? By the way, I’m not the only one,” Feng Quan said, grinning ominously.

His grin revealed a mouthful of grave soil, a horrifying sight.

“Is that Yang Jian your captain?”

“That’s correct,” Feng Quan replied.

Qin Kai’s heart sank. Only now did he realize the true weight of Yang Jian’s presence. What he initially thought to be a mere title turned out to signify the captain of a squad of ghost riders.

Terrifying.

Fortunately, there hadn’t been any conflict back on the fourth floor of the post office. Otherwise, he likely wouldn’t have made it to Dachang City alive.

“I’ll cooperate…”

Qin Kai slowly raised his hands. He knew that if he tried to fight, he couldn’t even take down Feng Quan and would be killed instantly.

“Smart choice. We’ve dealt with plenty of guys like you before,” Feng Quan said, giving him a brief glance before turning away.

As Yang Jian had instructed, cooperative couriers were spared. Those who resisted were eliminated on the spot.

By the following morning.

At the Dachang City train station.

Leuk Qingqing, wearing a cheongsam and a hat, her graceful figure drawing plenty of attention, was apprehended as she exited the platform.

“Leuk Qingqing, Captain Yang requests your presence. Please cooperate,” a group of staff surrounded her, issuing the warning.

“Let Yang Jian speak to me personally, or I won’t cooperate,” Leuk Qingqing said with a frown.

As a ghost rider, she wasn’t intimidated by these workers, even if they were armed.

“Our captain is busy with other matters and doesn’t have time to contact you. However, I suggest you cooperate to avoid unnecessary trouble. Otherwise, we’ll be forced to deal with you here,” a woman’s voice replied.

A male figure walked briskly toward her from a distance.

He wore a scarf that covered most of his face. However, under his black hair, two additional eerie faces could faintly be seen.

This man had three faces.

“Ghost Face… Tong Qian?” Leuk Qingqing murmured.

“So you’ve heard of me. Good. That saves us some explanations,” Tong Qian said.

Leuk Qingqing glanced around before saying, “I’ll cooperate.”

At this point, resistance would undoubtedly result in her death before she could leave the train station.

“Good. This way, please. Someone will handle your luggage, but I warn you to remain fully compliant. Otherwise, we will not hesitate to eliminate you,” Tong Qian instructed.

“Understood,”

Leuk Qingqing replied and followed the staff quietly onto a waiting vehicle.

Over the next few days, all couriers from the post office’s fourth floor who arrived in Dachang City were swiftly brought under control.

As uncertain factors, they could not be left unchecked.
