I did not experience a mysterious revival!

Chapter 38 People Who Shouldn't Be Alive

"Yes, Professor Wang Xiaoming. He's a genius. Although he's not a ghost tamer, he uses the wisdom of a normal person to study supernatural powers and has achieved many significant results, directly changing the course of our fight against vengeful ghosts! The most obvious example is that he discovered and published that gold can isolate supernatural powers."

Peng Anxiao's eyes shone with admiration.

Lin Yuan glanced at her. "When you report, don't mention anything about me. Just pretend I don't exist."

"Why? You... have a problem with headquarters?" Peng Anxiao was quite surprised.

After witnessing Lin Yuan's strength today, she was thinking of introducing him to the headquarters. But judging from Lin Yuan's words, it's clear that he has a conflict with the headquarters, or even with Wang Xiaoming.

Lin Yuan did not answer; his brows were already tightly furrowed.

Recalling their last memories of when they deliberately triggered the resurrection of the vengeful ghost, Li Jun and Wang Xiaoming should not have escaped. How come they are still alive?

What exactly is going on?

Does this mean that each time someone suffers from narcolepsy and enters a delusional state, the plot is not continuous but refreshed, based on the original mysterious resurrection plot?

Or perhaps an accident occurred.

The ghost of the Mirror Actor was not as terrifying as he had imagined; he was unable to keep Wang Xiaoming, Li Jun, Ye Feng, and Wang Xiaoqiang alive.

If it's the former, then Zhou Zheng's death, everything he did when he entered the illusionary realm last time, and everything I've done here are all meaningless.

If it's the latter, then isn't the ghost I've connected with because of the curse a little too weak in terms of terror? Isn't it a vengeful ghost of consciousness?

"Although I don't know the reason, I respect your choice."

Peng Anxiao suppressed his doubts and contacted his operator via satellite-guided mobile phone, while also reporting the situation at Lakeside Park.

Of course, she concealed Lin Yuan's presence.

"I can still hear the bells ringing, so I must be cursed. That ghost could come knocking at any moment, or even drag me into that eerie space. I need support from headquarters. First, information. I have too little information about the clock tower in Lakeside Park; it's too generic. I haven't found anything useful. I hope headquarters can help. Second, I hope the strategists at headquarters can help analyze this paranormal event. If Professor Wang is available, that would be best. Third, I hope someone can be sent to provide support. I suspect this paranormal event won't stay in Lakeside Park forever; it might spread and cause even greater harm."

The thought of clock towers covering the lake made Peng Anxiao feel a chill run down her spine.

If the clock tower really covers the entire lake, will it spread outwards?

Peng Anxiao dared not gamble.

The pattern of this ghost's killings has been basically figured out: it's the sound of the bell. Anyone who hears it will have their movements restricted and will be forced to wear a black robe to become a bell ringer, or a ghost slave.

However, how the bell's sound travels is something that remains a mystery.

"Professor Wang is currently in a meeting at headquarters. I have already submitted my application to Captain Zhao, and he has already gone to inquire about Professor Wang's opinion. I will try my best to obtain information about Xiaonan City Lakeside Park, but it will take some time."

"Can."

While we waited, Peng Fangyuan brought over a table full of delicious food.

Lin Yuan wasn't in the mood for food; he was preoccupied with other things. However, he still picked up his chopsticks and started eating to avoid worrying Peng Anxiao.

Soon, headquarters replied.

"I am Wang Xiaoming. I understand the information you reported, but I have a question. Based on the intelligence you reported, I am very curious about how you escaped. According to your paranormal file, you should have no ability to resist this kind of paranormal attack on consciousness."

Is there something hidden in your report?

For example, a companion with special abilities regarding consciousness?

Listening to the voice on the phone, Peng Anxiao shrugged helplessly at Lin Yuan, just as she was about to make up an excuse, when Lin Yuan suddenly said, "Professor Wang, have you heard of the name Lin Yuan?"

"Lin Yuan? You...you're not dead?"

Wang Xiaoming's clearly surprised response made Lin Yuan's heart sink.

The first possibility in the previous guesses can now be ruled out, otherwise Wang Xiaoming would not remember him or recognize him, and judging from the voice, Wang Xiaoming does not seem to have any hostility towards him.

If Wang Xiaoqiang were dead, Wang Xiaoming would definitely not have this attitude.

"You must be Lin Yuan? It seems the whole thing you did at the airport a month ago was a smokescreen. It looked like the ghost had returned, but you actually escaped using some unknown means? Are you in Xiaonan City now? I'd like to have a good talk with you. Do you have time to come to headquarters?"

Wang Xiaoming kept asking questions, like a hundred thousand "whys".

Lin Yuan said in a deep voice, "I will go, but not now. Let's deal with the Lakeside Park incident first. If the supernatural phenomena here spread, it won't just be one or two people dying."

"Alright. But I suggest you and Peng Anxiao isolate yourselves for now. The hallucinatory bell sounds you heard could very well be a source of infection," Wang Xiaoming said.

What?

Peng Anxiao suddenly stood up. "Peng Fangyuan! Get out now! And have people seal off this place. Don't let anyone in, including you!"

"good!"

Peng Fangyuan's face turned pale, and although he was worried, he did not refuse and quickly left the room without any hesitation.

"Please wait a little longer. I have some matters to attend to in Dachang City, so I can go to Xiaonan City ahead of time to find out about the Lakeside Park."

"That's great! With Professor Wang here, everything will be fine!"

Peng Anxiao hung up the phone with relief. "Now we just wait for Professor Wang to arrive. Lin Yuan, is there some misunderstanding between you and Professor Wang? Do you need my help?"

"It's not a misunderstanding, it's a clash of ideologies. You don't need to worry about this. I also want to have a good talk with him." Lin Yuan shook his head and refused.

Peng Anxiao said helplessly, "Alright."

Not long after ending the call, Wang Xiaoming and Li Jun boarded a private plane at Dajing International Airport and flew directly to Xiaonan City.

"Professor Wang, is Lin Yuan really still alive?"

On the plane, Li Jun was still processing the news he had just received. "A month ago in the airport terminal, he must have been resurrected by a vengeful ghost. Even his body was taken away by that ghost, there's no mistake! How could he possibly be alive? Could there be something wrong with him?"

A strange light gleamed in Wang Xiaoming's eyes. "I'll go and see for myself. If it really is him, then perhaps my research will take a completely new direction!"
