Chapter 298 The Two Who Disappeared! Ye Zhen's Heroism
"Ah Wu, did you see the paranormal event being discussed on the paranormal forum? Go and keep an eye out for it for me. This is a great opportunity, and I, Ye, must seize this chance to prove myself."
Ye Zhen put down the hot milk in his hand and made his request to A Wu, the administrator of the paranormal forum.
"Received, Mr. Ye."
A-Wu had no objection to Ye Zhen's request.
Although they are nominally in a superior-subordinate relationship, their daily interactions are more like those of an older brother and his younger brother.
Ah Wu understood Ye Zhen's personality well, so even if Ye Zhen made some strange requests, as long as they weren't too outrageous, Ah Wu would comply.
It could be said that the relationship between the two was closer than that of ordinary friends.
···········
three days later.
It was still at the Pearl Building in Dahai City.
Ye Zhen suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen the administrator, A Wu, for several days, so he asked another subordinate, "Where's A Wu? Where did A Wu go? Why haven't I seen him these past few days?"
The subordinate replied, "Brother Wu said a few days ago that he was going to do something for you, Boss Ye. He made some preparations and started an investigation, but then we haven't heard from him since. We don't know where he is either."
Upon hearing this, Ye Zhen frowned.
Gone?
How can this be?
Although Ye Zhen is a bit of a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur), he is not stupid. A Wu's strength is not that great, so Ye Zhen would never let A Wu take risks if there was anything dangerous.
His only request to A-Wu was to begin investigating the paranormal event.
Any substantial progress must be reported to him immediately.
In other words, A-Wu himself will not be involved in paranormal events.
As for the possibility that it was an attack carried out by members of the King's Organization, that possibility is extremely slim.
With such a major incident occurring within the King's Organization, and the news that Lu Ming had not left spreading, they wouldn't cause any trouble at this time unless they were fools.
Not to mention the great effort they went to, all for a mere administrator of a paranormal forum.
But now...
There was no progress, and instead, A-Wu disappeared.
Ye Zhen had a vague sense of foreboding.
Moreover, for some reason, he suddenly felt as if he had forgotten something.
"Now, we don't need to worry about anything else. We need to mobilize all the resources of the paranormal forum and find A-Wu no matter what. As for the task I, Ye, gave him... let's put it aside for now. Those things are not important."
"Yes."
···········
Originally, it was thought that after the paranormal forum launched a full-scale investigation, A-Wu's whereabouts would soon be revealed.
To Ye Zhen's utter surprise, A Wu seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth, disappearing without a trace.
If A-Wu hadn't existed in Ye Zhen's memory, no one would have known that there was such a person as A-Wu in the world.
"How is this possible..."
This time, even Ye Zhen couldn't help but fall into deep self-doubt.
It is no exaggeration to say that most ordinary people cannot imagine the power of the paranormal world.
An ordinary ghost tamer can suppress a group of top tycoons so much that they can't even lift their heads.
Not to mention a well-known paranormal organization like a paranormal forum.
They can find anyone they want to investigate, as long as they exist in this world, even if they flee to the ends of the earth.
But it's as if A-Wu has completely vanished, leaving no trace. Even some information about him on the internet has been erased.
···········
Two more days passed.
Ye Zhen finally couldn't sit still any longer.
Regardless, A-Wu was his underling, and it was he who took the initiative to ask A-Wu to investigate this matter.
It's easy to guess that A-Wu's disappearance is definitely related to the S-class paranormal event being discussed on the paranormal forum.
"We must find him alive or dead, the culprit must be found, the debtor must be held accountable, A-Wu's disappearance absolutely cannot be left like this..."
Ye Zhen also had some doubts.
This paranormal event has revealed far too many strange things so far.
First, there was the post on the paranormal forum.
He accessed the highest level of privileges to search for the post, only to find that it had already been deleted.
The ghost tamers who participated in the discussion all had invalid accounts.
Only the user with the blank ID who first brought up the topic still exists, seemingly to show that Ye Zhen's memory has not been confused.
Secondly, if this is indeed a supernatural event of S-level horror, it will definitely attract widespread attention.
At least those who practice paranormal research will definitely pay attention to this matter.
Previous incidents such as the starving ghost incident, the ghost messenger incident, and the ghost painting incident have all attracted widespread attention and discussion.
This time, however, there was no code name, no special characteristics, and no written records, pictures, or videos.
The Ghost Riders headquarters made no comment on this matter, nor did it issue any prohibitions.
Thinking of this, Ye Zhen made a phone call to Cao Yanhua at headquarters.
"Ye Zhen?"
On the other end of the phone, Cao Yanhua sounded somewhat surprised.
If he remembered correctly, this was the first time Ye Zhen had ever called him.
Ye Zhen is the leader of the paranormal forum. Although the scale of the paranormal forum cannot compare with the headquarters of the Ghost Master, Ye Zhen has always been arrogant. Before meeting Lu Ming, he even considered himself the number one person in Asia.
It's understandable that they didn't proactively contact Vice Minister Cao Yanhua.
The fact that they called me proactively suggests that it's something very important.
"Minister Cao, let's not beat around the bush. A few days ago, I heard that one of the team leaders at headquarters, Liu San, participated in the investigation of a supernatural event that reached the level of S-level terror. Those supernatural events were not named, and after that, Liu San disappeared and completely lost contact with the outside world."
"···········"
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.
After a long pause, Cao Yanhua finally spoke slowly: "Ye Zhen, I don't know if you're joking, but this is a critical moment, and we don't have time to fool around here."
"The supernatural event you mentioned, which reached an S-level level of horror, is not recorded in the headquarters' files at all."
Hearing Cao Yanhua say this, Ye Zhen frowned, but this was within his expectations.
It seems that Cao Yanhua, and even the entire Ghost Master headquarters, have no clue about this paranormal event.
If Ye Zhen was only slightly agitated, Cao Yanhua's next words immediately plunged him into an icy abyss.
Cao Yanhua's voice came through the phone again, though the quality wasn't great and there was a hissing sound from the static: "Besides, that Liu San you mentioned isn't even on the captain's list of plans. In fact... there isn't a single ghost tamer named Liu San in our headquarters."
···········
Even after hanging up the phone, Ye Zhen was still in shock and unable to come to her senses.
A henchman handed him a cup of hot milk, asking, "Boss Ye, what's wrong? I've seen you sitting in front of the computer these past few days, you haven't been getting any rest." "Don't you know what I, Ye, am doing? Or are you all giving up on finding A-Wu?"
"A-Wu? Who's that? Is she a girl?"
"..."
Veins bulged on Ye Zhen's forehead as he felt an inexplicable surge of anger.
What followed was a profound sense of powerlessness.
Of course, he wasn't angry at his subordinates.
He couldn't explain why he was angry.
Based on his experience in handling paranormal events, he had basically determined that this unnamed paranormal event had a very important characteristic.
Everyone who takes on the investigation of this paranormal event mysteriously disappears.
More accurately, it has completely disappeared.
From a simple disappearance at the beginning, to being completely erased from the concept and forgotten by everyone in the world, then having all traces of existence wiped away, as if they had never existed in this world at all.
Liu San was like that, and so was A Wu.
This explains why even Liu San couldn't escape the fate of being erased...
Generally, Liu San would send out his paper figures to deal with paranormal events.
Even if one or two paper figures are lost, his main body will not be greatly affected.
These paper figures can even share memories.
By constantly using paper figures to test and find solutions, one can eventually discover ways to resolve paranormal events.
It is precisely because of this special quality that Liu San dared to make the bold claim that he could defeat anyone in the paranormal community.
But this time, Liu San's plan backfired.
Whether it's him or his paper doll investigating this paranormal event, it's equivalent to him starting to try to investigate it.
So the unknown vengeful spirit directly erased Liu San's existence.
"But if that's the case, then why... am I not affected by that ghost?"
Ye Zhen frowned, deep in thought.
His speculations are all reasonable and basically match all the details.
There is only one thing that cannot be explained.
If Liu San and A Wu's existence has been completely erased, then even Ye Zhen wouldn't remember them.
But even now, Ye Zhen still has a deep impression of them.
Especially Wu, everyone else had forgotten about the administrator of this paranormal forum, only Ye Zhen remembered his little brother.
···········
Ye Zhen continued his research until late at night before leaving the Pearl Building to go home.
The streets were still quiet, with almost no light except for the dim streetlights, let alone pedestrians.
Such a phenomenon might be normal in other cities, but you have to understand that this is Dahai City, one of the most prosperous areas in the entire country, and it is even known as the "Magic City".
This place is never short of wealthy people who seek pleasure and indulge in extravagance; streets as deserted as they are now are a violation of the norm.
Perhaps because he was still thinking about A-Wu, Ye Zhen did not notice these obvious details.
"Everyone has forgotten about Liu San and A Wu's existence. Apart from the clues I currently have, I can't deduce anything useful..."
"Everyone involved in this paranormal event has disappeared, and everything has been cut off..."
"No, there's still one clue that hasn't been broken."
Suddenly, Ye Zhen seemed to remember something and stopped in his tracks.
The reason he became interested in the paranormal events related to grades was because the account with the blank ID that posted about it on the paranormal forum.
All other users' numbers are invalid; they are not accounts that have been cancelled, but rather empty numbers that never existed from the beginning.
The account with the blank ID still exists.
This already speaks volumes.
"I need to investigate this account; I can't let any clue slip by."
"Whether this thing is human or ghost, you're unlucky to have messed with me, Ye."
Ye Zhen's expression gradually became serious.
In the past, whether dealing with paranormal events or making bets with Lu Ming, he always had a nonchalant attitude.
But this time, he was really serious.
But before Ye Zhen could use his Ghost Domain to leave this place, he noticed that the streetlights on both sides of the road began to flicker.
After a brief period of flickering light, the streetlights on both sides suddenly went out at the same time.
The sky was overcast and gloomy, pressing down on Ye Zhen and creating immense pressure.
As for the more distant places, there was only a hazy gray fog, and nothing could be seen or touched.
call!
Suddenly, a sinister flame shot out from the boundless darkness.
A white candle appeared at the end of the road at some unknown time.
The candle was being held by someone, its green flame flickering eerily, which seemed very unusual.
With the help of this faint light, Ye Zhen could barely make out the person holding the candle.
More accurately, they are ghosts.
This thing was tall and its appearance was shrouded in gray mist, making it difficult to see clearly. It was covered by a gray robe, which was stiff, cold, and numb.
The moment Ye Zhen saw this thing, his eyes turned completely bloodshot.
"What the hell?! It dares to show itself?!"
"I want you to die!"
Having said that, he activated his Ghost Domain, intending to use his spiritual power to dispel the thick gray fog and let in the outside light.
However, even with the activation of the five layers of ghost domain, it was still to no avail and had no effect on the environment here.
At the same time, Ye Zhen tore through space with his Ghost Domain and pulled out a twisted and cracked longsword from somewhere.
The blade was pitted and uneven, like a failed piece of junk.
Even more terrifying, the blade of this sword is also printed with a horrifying ghost face.
"My sword must not be looked at; to look at it is certain death!"
"My sword is untouchable; to touch it is certain death!"
With two certain-death rules activated simultaneously, Ye Zhen couldn't consider anything else at this moment.
He charged towards the end of the road, his stiff figure disappearing into the deepening darkness. (End of Chapter)
