However, based on the time information provided by Old Dong and checking the call records, Jiang Yue quickly identified Master Liu's phone number.
This phone call roughly matches the time periods provided by Lao Dong.
This made Jiang Yue look at Lao Dong with admiration. This guy was really thoughtful. It was really not easy for him to remember these details despite being controlled by others.
Master Liu left quite a lot of things, and Jiang Yue didn't have time to count them all at the moment.
Old Dong is a smart man. After reaching a tacit agreement with Jiang Yue, he naturally knows what to do next.
…
Luo Chu, who was on the 30th floor, was hiding in a makeshift bunker and was also very anxious. The movement on the 29th floor was so loud that he could naturally hear it.
After all, in this empty corridor, the sound of gunfire is constant, and it is not difficult to reach the 30th floor. What's more, the 29th floor and the 30th floor are actually separated by a roof.
He could even hear the low roars of the zombies crowding the corridor on the 29th floor.
The dense and dull roar indicated the staggering number of corpses downstairs, almost filling the entire corridor.
Luo Chuqiang has experienced many dangerous situations in the past few years since he reached the position of Director of Operations Branch Three, and also experienced many dangerous scenes that he was unsure of.
But this time, he was really breaking out in a cold sweat and worried.
Jiang Yue asked him to stay here and chose to break into the tiger's den by himself. Of course Luo Chu understood this very well.
Time passed by minute by second. According to normal time calculation, those zombies on the 29th floor should have arrived on the 30th floor long ago. But Luo Chu listened intently, and it seemed that they had been staying on the 29th floor without much movement.
Except for the occasional gunfire, there didn't seem to be much fighting activity.
Luo Chu couldn't help but wonder, what on earth is Jiang Yue doing?
At this moment, light footsteps came from the corridor.
Then, Jiang Yue's figure appeared in the corridor.
"Luo Chu, it's me."
Seeing Jiang Yue return safely, Luo Chu felt slightly relieved, but then he frowned, pointed his gun at Jiang Yue, and asked in a low voice: "Don't come over yet."
Jiang Yue smiled and said: "Don't be nervous, it's me."
Seeing that Luo Chu had no intention of letting down his guard or withdrawing his gun, Jiang Yue had no choice but to highlight some of the experiences of the two of them acting together during the day.
Luo Chu then put away his gun and rushed out of the bunker.
"Xiaojiang, how are you?"
"As expected, it was Master Liu who was responsible. But he has been killed by me. Except for Lao Dong, all his accomplices have been killed."
"So, the crisis is over?"
"You can say that for the time being, but the ghosts and corpses in the entire building are still there."
Luo Chu's expression changed in shock: "Now that the controller is dead, these things should be harmless, right?"
"That's not necessarily true. The ghost also said that corpse puppets are bloodthirsty creatures. If they were released, they would definitely be extremely harmful."
For some reason, Luo Chu was reminded of the zombies in Resident Evil and couldn't help but said: "If this kind of thing bites and scratches a normal person, it shouldn't be infected, right?"
"That's not the case. They are not zombies caused by biochemical disasters. But the power and destructive power of these things are far beyond normal people. Even ordinary awakened people may not be able to defeat them."
When Jiang Yue said this, he took out a protective rune and said, "With this, those ghosts and zombies will not attack you."
Luo Chu saw that these two-finger-wide runes exuded a strange aura, so he did not refuse and stuffed them into his pocket.
"Xiao Jiang, according to you, what should I do with these corpses?"
Jiang Yue sighed softly and did not rush to answer, but looked at the frightened and hesitant ghosts in the ghost flags.
Although these ghosts have not lost consciousness, they have been controlled by Master Liu during this period and have formed an instinctive dependence.
When Master Liu died, these ghosts became lonely ghosts for a while, and naturally they were a little worried and frightened.
"Luo Chu, these are poor people."
Jiang Yue said in a faint tone.
Luo Chu was startled: "Xiaojiang, you are the main force in this Yinyuan Apartment case, and I am at most a supporter. According to the rules, if you have any ideas, you can speak out. As long as it is reasonable, we will do what you want."
Although he is an official figure, Luo Chu has been with Jiang Yue for a long time and knows Jiang Yue's methods.
"I do have some ideas that I might try."
"The vast majority of people in this apartment building are actually ordinary people, good people. Even if they become ghosts or zombies, they are still victims in the end, and their evildoing is not serious."
Luo Chu did not deny this and nodded in deep agreement.
"Luo Chu should still remember Mr. Ke, right?"
"You mean the zombie version of Mr. Ke?"
"Yes, Mr. Ke was made into a corpse puppet, but he still retained his original consciousness, and his IQ and behavior did not seem to be greatly affected."
"So, I'm wondering, is it possible to put these resentful spirits back into their physical bodies and let them exist in another life form?"
Luo Chu was stunned, could it still be done like this?
Swallowing his saliva, Luo Chu couldn't help but ask: "Xiao Jiang, is it technically feasible? And, aren't there any risks in doing so?"
"It's not technically difficult. None of these ghosts have lost their consciousness. They have a kind of attachment to their own physical instincts. It's like that Wen Yuqian turned into a ghost and is still frantically looking for the pieces of her own body.
This is a strong obsession.”
"As for the risks, there is no need to worry too much. Even if they merge with the corpse puppets again, they will still be controlled by the Zimu Onibata. Once they leave Yinyuan Apartment and get away from the Zimu Onibata, their souls will be wiped out. By then,
They really have become zombies."
Jiang Yue's idea was very bold, and Luo Chu was frightened when he heard it.
"There are still a few ghosts, haven't they been destroyed?"
Luo Chu raised another question.
"Let them be peaceful corpse puppets... There are not many of them, and other conscious corpse puppets will surely be able to cover them."
The recombination of corpse puppets and souls is indeed a horrifying idea.
"So, are these people still human?"
"Living dead?" Jiang Yue shook his head, "There's no need to worry about this. Maybe even more bizarre life forms will appear in the future. Do you believe it?"
Luo Chu found it difficult to refute.
You can completely remove the word "maybe". All kinds of weird life forms will definitely appear in the future. In fact, similar things have already appeared in many high-level files.
With Luo Chu's current authority, he can already access some. At higher levels, there are also secret files that he does not have enough authority to access. I'm afraid there are more secrets.
"Luo Chu, the difficulty now is, what to do with this building? As long as it operates normally, there will definitely be people coming in and out. Although these living dead are here to stay, it is not appropriate to interact with the outside world."
"Seizure?"
"We really can't seal it for the time being..."
"Why?"
"It's a long story..."
Jiang Yue immediately explained all the information revealed by Old Dong to Luo Chu. Except for the key part that he wanted to pretend to be Master Liu, he basically said everything else that could be said.
After listening, Luo Chu was completely stunned.
Once again, Jiang Yue proved his earlier point to him.
In Star City, there is an invisible and powerful force that is causing trouble secretly, and may even cause shocking events in the future.
There is such a huge monster lurking under the eyes, and the Star City Operations Bureau has no clue at all. It is simply terrifying to think about it.
How can you allow others to snore and sleep on the side of the couch?
Nowadays, people are not just sleeping soundly, they are already sharpening their knives, ready to put them on their necks at any time.
"Xiao Jiang, this matter is too big for you to handle alone, right?"
"I don't intend to carry it alone. Your Operations Bureau should take action quickly. It's best if all major departments take action. However, I still have to remind you that it is best to do it secretly. Don't alert the enemy, let alone make any big moves blindly."
"Why can't we make a big move?"
"It's not that we can't make big moves, but we need to make sure before we do it that everyone involved is reliable. Who knows how many chess pieces this force has deployed? How many people like Chief Yan are lurking in various departments and teams?
"
In a word, it is difficult to guard against domestic thieves.
It is absolutely impossible to guard against house thieves who steal the house inside and outside.
Speaking of Chief Yan, Luo Chu was speechless again.
In the end, the two of them decided that Yinyuan Apartment would not be sealed for the time being, and they agreed to do so for a week.
Judging from the frequency of contact with Master Liu on that phone, there will be one contact every two or three days. One week is definitely more than enough.
As for Lao Dong, he still has to stay in Yinyuan Apartment.
Although he was extremely reluctant in his heart, he also knew that he had no choice.
If the situation in Yinyuan Apartment is to be maintained, someone must stay.
As for the seriously injured guys on the 30th floor, including Xiao Tang, they can only be detained in Yinyuan Apartment for the time being.
After all the matters have been arranged, the core issue comes.
Although it is technically not difficult to allow these ghosts to return to their corpse bodies, they still have to communicate.
And there is another question, that is, whether the most ferocious ghosts are more unruly and violent, are they willing to accept the arrangement?
Especially Wen Yuqian, she is full of hatred for the old Dong. When the old Dong stays behind, will she attack the old Dong? This is also an issue that requires coordination.
Fortunately, all the tokens left by Master Liu fell into Jiang Yue's hands, which meant that Jiang Yue had taken over the ghost banner.
Although Jiang Yue is not yet fully proficient in the technical control of the ghost banners, he has already gained a glimpse of the secrets. As long as the token falls into Jiang Yue's hands, the life and death of the ghosts will be controlled by Jiang Yue.
Even if there are really rebellious ones, Jiang Yue can kill them with force.
Therefore, when these ghosts heard the news, most of them chose to accept it without hesitation.
Although they all know very well that even if they return to the physical body, they will never be their original living selves.
But at least life continues, even if it is a living dead, it is still a living dead with self-awareness.
More importantly, they have no autonomy at all. The moment they become ghosts, they have already established a contract with Zimu Onibata and are controlled by Zimu Onabata.
As long as the mother-in-law ghost flags are removed, they will surely die.
This is the pit that Master Liu digs for every ghost, and this is also the reason why it takes Master Liu so long to concoct these ghosts.
Because it takes time and effort for every ghost to establish a contract with its parent ghost banner.
Even if they return to their corpse puppet bodies, Zimu Onibata must stay in Yinyuan Apartment and stay with her, otherwise they will soon be distraught and turn back into unconscious corpse puppets.
As Jiang Yue expected, Wen Yuqian was the one with the most rebellious mood.
Her body was dismembered and in pieces. Although it was found and reassembled, her corpse was obviously more broken than the others.
She was a person who particularly loved beauty when she was alive. When she saw how ugly her body was, her inner resentment could not be suppressed.
She told Jiang Yue that she would never accept it unless the old Dong was handed over to him.
Jiang Yue did not tolerate her: "Then you should calm down first."
Jiang Yue pocketed the scroll of the mother's banner where Wen Yuqian was. Wen Yuqian's ghost screamed repeatedly, and it had already established a contractual relationship with the mother and child ghost banner. Once the mother's banner left, it would not be able to survive for long.
If Jiang Yue takes Mother Banner away, even if it evolves into a powerful ghost, it will not survive for more than 24 hours in Yinyuan Apartment.
The huge hatred must be put aside for a while.
The old Dong expressed his position: "Yuqian, no matter what, it was me who was obsessed with you and poisoned you at the beginning. When I get my wish, you will torture me no matter what. I deserve it. Give me seven days, and after seven days, you will
If you don't kill me, I will commit suicide in front of you. You can cut me into pieces or hang me to death. Then you can do whatever you want to do to relieve your anger."
"Dong, what are you talking about in the name of someone protecting you? If you really have any sense of shame, I will strangle you to death right now!"
"I can't do it now, I still want to save my child." Old Dong jumped towards Jiang, "We have an appointment for seven days, and I hope you can keep your word. After seven days, Wen Yuqian and I will make an end, and none of you will interfere."
Jiang Yue said calmly: "You have done all the bad things, but you are not worthy of my intervention. Miss Wen, we have a seven-day appointment. After seven days, I guarantee that I will not interfere with your affairs. You can resolve your grudges by yourself when the time comes."
Wen Yuqian was afraid of Jiang Yue and knew that it would be impossible to kill Lao Dong today.
"Seven days, I will give you seven days. After seven days, even if we die together, I will never let you go and let you get away with it!"
Jiang Yue had no intention of getting involved in the feud between the two.
His eyes scanned the entire audience sharply: "If I hadn't thought that you were innocent, I would never have kept you. I would destroy you with ease. Therefore, don't regard my politeness as a blessing, let alone live up to my mercy and mercy.
If anyone is being clever and tries to cause trouble again, I guarantee you will not get a second chance."
Jiang Yue won't say those vicious words like Master Liu, but his strength is there. Even Master Liu was killed by him. If these ghosts say they are not afraid of him, they are lying.
After some warning, reorganization began.
Jiang Yue naturally wouldn't let them swarm up in a mess and find his own physical body one by one in order.
Naturally, your own body does not need to be tempered.
The process was very simple. In less than half an hour, all the ghosts had found their physical corpses.
The most pitiable thing is the ghosts that were destroyed, and their corpses will always be the walking dead.
Luo Chu had been watching all this silently. He felt that Jiang Yue's plan was too bold, but he did not raise any objection. After all, this night, Jiang Yue mainly contributed, and Jiang Yue had the final say.
After finishing all this, Jiang Yue whispered to Old Dong: "Someone will come over in a while, and then you can just follow his arrangements."
When Lao Dong heard that someone else would come, he felt much more relaxed.
He was really a little nervous when he was alone. It would be a good thing if someone came. It doesn't matter who arranges things now.
He only had one thought, which was to save his innocent children, and everything else was just a cloud.
At this time, Jiang Yue and Luo Chu had already gone downstairs, and Old Dong was seeing them off attentively. As they were going down the corridor, Jiang Yue suddenly stopped, frowned and asked, "Is there anyone else downstairs?"
