Chapter 233: Chapter 233 Again Study

Seeing the emaciated patient before him, Yang Jian was reminded of the first time he had met Zhou Zheng.

It was the same look.

But Zhou Zheng had suffered for much longer, the pain had become etched into his very bones, and what was left was a numbness from being tormented too long.

“Compared to others, he can be considered lucky,” Yang Jian said, looking at the patient.

Although it was an experiment, this person could be freed from the torment of the Ghost Infant and return to normal.

At this time, Wang Xiaoming and the other staff members silently left the operating room and entered the observation room next door.

Through the glass, they could see everything happening here.

Was it to retreat in time if there was any danger?

“Hmm? Why are you standing so far away?” Yang Jian asked.

Wang Xiaoming said, “It’s a necessary precaution, you don’t have to worry about it. Be ready to initiate the emergency plan at any time, and immediately seal off the operating room if anything happens.”

“Under the operating table, there’s a metal box made of Gold. As soon as you find that location on Seventh Street, immediately imprison the Ghost Infant; if you can’t, choose to retreat right away.”

“…” Yang Jian’s face darkened.

This was clearly doubting his ability to deal with this ghostly thing alone.

“Young man, don’t be nervous, it’s just a painless abortion, it’ll be over in less than a minute, you’ll see, it’s very quick,” Yang Jian said to the patient reassuringly.

He was a young man in his twenties, only appearing a bit older due to his withered face.

“Big brother, can I trust you? I’m not going to die, am I?” the young man said with a mournful expression.

Yang Jian said, “If you really don’t feel at ease, shall I give you anesthesia?”

“A low dose of anesthesia can’t numb these types of patients; probably because of the existence of the Ghost Infant, they’ve developed some drug resistance. A large dose of anesthetic might work, but it’s likely to cause irreversible damage to the human body, so I just gave him a sedative,” Wang Xiaoming explained seriously from a distance.

“Big brother, I don’t want to die, please save me,” the young man pleaded again.

“I’ll do my best,” Yang Jian said. “But you’d better close your eyes. If you can’t manage that, then no matter what you see, hear or encounter later, don’t scream. It could affect my work. Of course, if you really affect me, it doesn’t matter to me, because you’re the one who might die. Understand?”

“Understood.” The young man looked like he was about to cry.

“Let’s start.”

Yang Jian hadn’t started to use the Ghost Domain because if he wanted to extract the Ghost Infant, he couldn’t use his Ghost Domain.

The suppression from his Ghost Eye meant he could only use one of his abilities.

Perhaps when the fierce spirits were in a gradually reviving state, this situation would improve.

In an instant.

Yang Jian’s left hand swiftly penetrated the patient’s clothes and thrust directly into his swollen belly.

“Ah~!”

A sharp, bizarre, and spine-chilling scream instantly filled the entire operating room, causing even Wang Xiaoming in the observation room to frown, while the staff beside him covered their ears in terror.

But the sound seemed to come from within oneself, and covering the ears was useless.

“It’s a clever move, using the Ghost Domain only on his left hand. This way, he can reach into the patient’s abdomen without touching the patient’s skin,” Wang Xiaoming observed Yang Jian’s actions and couldn’t help but admire his approach.

A high school senior managing to wield the power of a fierce ghost to this extent in such a short time was very impressive.

“But he shouldn’t be able to catch the Ghost Infant, so what method will he use to solve this?” Wang Xiaoming had this second question, but when he saw a tall black Ghost Shadow rising behind Yang Jian, everything became clear.

The Headless Ghost Shadow stood behind him, emitting a chill and sinister aura. They were less than a meter apart, yet one of the Ghost Shadow’s arms merged with Yang Jian’s arm.

“Another ghost? This Ghost seems very special, possessing no body yet able to attach to a person’s body, like a sort of possession, right? However, this approach must be quite risky. A person possessed by a ghost can’t be considered human anymore, it’s more fitting to call them a Ghost. Yang Jian didn’t dare to let the black shadow fully attach to himself; he only controlled one of its arms,” Wang Xiaoming thought to himself approvingly.

This bold yet cautious trial was in line with his scientific spirit. A ghost controller should be like that, leveraging the ghost’s power to its fullest within their control.

It was just a pity that many ghost controllers were just passively using it to save their lives, few tried to harness this ability like this.

“Got it,” Yang Jian suddenly moved, feeling his palm grasp the Ghost Infant inside the belly.

Cold, soft, with a rotten sensation, like a dead infant.

“Come out,” he commanded as his arm pierced through the patient’s body and even through the operating table, then suddenly, with a thud, something appeared and fell to the floor, where he pinned it down firmly.

A baby with a dark, ghastly complexion was struggling incessantly on the floor, its strength far exceeding that of a well-trained adult. The floor tiles were forcibly scratched apart by the Ghost Infant’s pitch-black nails, emitting a sharp, piercing noise.

But this force was unable to harm Yang Jian in the slightest when it fell upon his left hand.

Part of the Ghost Shadow was attached inside his arm, making it impossible for the Ghost Infant to overcome the Ghost Shadow, no matter how ferocious it was.

Besides, this Ghost Infant was not the true source but merely a derived product, similar to a Ghost Slave.

“It worked,” the people in the observation room watched with trepidation.

Though they had strong mental fortitude, the sight of Officer Yang pulling such an infant out of a person’s belly still sent chills down their spines.

The true form of a ghost, this was their first encounter in their lives.

“Very good,” Wang Xiaoming also revealed a trace of a smile, but that smile quickly disappeared.

Yang Jian’s abilities were indeed powerful and outstanding, but it was these very abilities that had claimed the life of his own younger brother.

“Next, I’m going to let this thing go and lock it in the Ghost Domain. You all better be careful. There might be a slight delay in time, and in that moment, this ghostly thing could kill a man,” Yang Jian said as he gripped the Ghost Infant’s arm and lifted it up, then turned to Wang Xiaoming.

“First, take the patient out and immediately check all vital signs,” Wang Xiaoming immediately ordered.

Soon, two staff members entered the operating room with trepidation, hastily carried the young man out, and didn’t dare to even glance at Yang Jian or the eerie infant in his hands.

“Now you can begin,” said Wang Xiaoming.

“You’re not going to avoid it?” asked Yang Jian.

Wang Xiaoming said, “No need, I believe I can react to this distance, unless you want me dead.”

“That sounds quite heart-rending. If something really happens, it’s bound to be blamed on me. Liu Xiaoyu, you heard that, right? It’s not that I didn’t advise him; it’s that Wang Xiaoming is asking for it himself,” Yang Jian said with a laugh.

On the satellite-linked phone, which was kept on a 24-hour call status, Liu Xiaoyu didn’t know how to respond after hearing this.

“There’s no need to ask for instructions from above. Let’s start now,” Wang Xiaoming said.

“Of course,” Yang Jian glanced at him, paid him no further heed, and casually tossed the Ghost Infant forward.

Upon hitting the ground, the Ghost Infant quickly scrambled to its feet, its limbs strangely elongated, and it scuttled rapidly along the wall, leaving behind a trail of dark green handprints.

Without hesitation, it immediately rushed towards Wang Xiaoming in the observation room.

Yang Jian, who was the closest, seemed no longer within its range of attack.

“So fast, professor, be careful!” The nearby security personnel, frightened, immediately drew their guns.

“This thing is useless, put it away,” Wang Xiaoming gestured and said, “It has no other intentions; it just wants to devour me. After the Ghost Infant is born, it enters a state of hunger, randomly consuming anyone nearby it can see. To avoid being devoured by a First Stage Ghost Infant, the best method is to get out of its line of sight.”

“By the Second Stage, the Ghost Infant has grown into a child and begins to choose its victims, so it will preferentially devour anyone it has had contact with. To face a Ghost Infant at this stage, one must avoid being seen or touched.”

“That means neither seen nor touched.”

“As for the Third Stage, we haven’t been able to determine its patterns yet; we can only make general conjectures,” Wang Xiaoming said calmly.

At this moment, the Ghost Infant had climbed onto the tempered glass right in front of them.

Separated only by a thin layer of glass, the Ghost Infant’s pitch-black, pupil-less eyes stared at Wang Xiaoming with eeriness and ferocity.

“Crack, crack, crack~!”

The glass window in front of them quickly started to crackle and splinter.

The dark green marks left by its hands and feet seemed to be able to corrode any material.

Soon, the glass shattered.

The Ghost Infant lunged towards Wang Xiaoming.

However, at that moment, a red light flashed on, illuminating from the operating room, instantly enveloping the Ghost Infant.

The charging Ghost Infant vanished in an instant before it could make contact with Wang Xiaoming.

By then, Yang Jian had come out: “You really are bold to not even dodge.”

“I told you, as long as you don’t want the Ghost Infant to devour me, I won’t die,” Wang Xiaoming responded, still very calm, “The Ghost Domain opens in less than half a second at this distance. Once the Ghost Infant is locked in the Ghost Domain, it’s at your mercy. I’ve researched the First Stage of the Ghost Infant; it absolutely cannot escape the Ghost Domain unless you release it purposely.”

“You know a lot about the Ghost Infant. What do you think the pattern is for Third-Stage Ghost Infants? Not to look, not to touch avoids death, so does the Third Stage require another condition?” Yang Jian asked.

“You want to know?” Wang Xiaoming said.
