Chapter 375: Establishing Authority and Attacking
Seven minutes. The conversation between Wang Xiaoming and Yang Jian did not last too long, exactly seven minutes. Although the content of the conversation was unclear, everyone present could see that Wang Xiaoming looked a little scary in his calmness, and Yang Jian was like a stagnant pool of water, making it impossible to guess what they were thinking.
"It just so happens that everyone is here today, so some things can be settled right here and now."
Seeing everyone appear again, Yang Jian said with a stern expression.
"Yang Jian, what do you want to do?"
Shen Liang had a bad feeling in his heart.
"I'm not doing anything. I'm just trying to see if I, the captain of the law enforcement team, am really as important as Wang Xiaoming said."
Yang Jian glanced at him with a grim tone.
"Cao Yang, you are the captain of the inspection team. Although you are not independent of the 12 captains, you are on the same level as the captain of the law enforcement team in principle. Let me ask you, if someone shoots and attacks the captain of the law enforcement team at the headquarters, how should we deal with it according to the rules?"
Cao Yang was not surprised at all when he was named. He paused for a moment and responded seriously:
"He deserves to be killed, no matter who he is. Attacking the captain of law enforcement means declaring war on the headquarters. All city leaders and captains under the headquarters should cooperate with the captain of law enforcement. We will issue a global wanted warrant until he is killed."
Yang Jian nodded and then asked Cao Yanhua.
"Cao Yanhua, you are the deputy director of the headquarters. Wang Xiaoming said that the law enforcement captain has the final say in the headquarters. Even if you are the deputy director, I can remove you at any time and replace you with an obedient person."
"But I've always been a peace-loving person, so you just need to answer the questions."
Cao Yanhua looked hesitant, but still gave basically the same answer as Cao Yang.
"Shen Liang, you are the civilian captain of the headquarters. How do you think the people who attacked the law enforcement captain should be dealt with?"
At this moment, Shen Liang had already understood Wang Xiaoming's plan. At the same time, he had to admire Wang Xiaoming, who had been scheming against others all his life, and even did not let himself go before he died. He took the value of his own death into account just to establish Yang Jian's authority.
"kill."
Shen Liang said one word with a complicated expression, then left the ward with a wry smile. He had already anticipated what would happen next.
"In that case, I'll send you on your way."
A pool of cold water appeared under Yang Jian's feet, and a golden but cracked spear floated out of the water. He grabbed it, and the end of the spear with the hatchet inlaid on it flew through the air.
There was no sound as imagined. In fact, with the supernatural power that Yang Jian possessed, he had ten thousand ways to kill Wang Xiaoming, but he chose the simplest one.
Wang Xiaoming's head fell off his neck and rolled to the ground, blood gushing out. The white bed was instantly dyed scarlet, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
Cao Yanhua took out a cigarette and lit it. He knew that Wang Xiaoming was using his death to establish Yang Jian's authority, but after witnessing Yang Jian killing Wang Xiaoming with his own eyes, his mood was very complicated for a moment.
"It's ten o'clock in the morning now. Since I have chosen to be the law enforcement captain, I must ensure that this captain meeting can be held smoothly. Cao Yanhua, how many captains are there who have not expressed their opinions or have lost contact?"
Yang Jian looked at his watch and asked.
"Currently, Li Leping from Dachuan City and Wang Chaling from Dadong City have refused to attend the meeting. Liu San, He Yiner and others have said they will attend the meeting after the Ghost Dragon Dance incident in Luocheng City is over."
Cao Yanhua responded.
"Then we will hold a captain's meeting at 6 o'clock tonight. As for Li Leping and Wang Chaling, I will go there in person. Cao Yang, do you want to come with us?"
Yang Jian asked. He also had his own plans. Although he became the captain of the law enforcement team, every captain was not a soft persimmon. However, if Cao Yang was brought along, the situation would be different. To some extent, Cao Yang's appearance also meant pressure from the headquarters, which could help him share some of the pressure.
"No need. I still have great faith in the ability of the law enforcement captain. After all, everyone knows that you fought your way up here, and there is nothing wrong with you."
Cao Yang rejected Yang Jian's invitation. During this period, he was going to cooperate with Wei Jing to investigate Zhang Xianguang's affairs. From Shen Lin's description, Zhang Xianguang seemed to be different from the original, which was not a good thing.
"Okay, then I'll go alone." Yang Jian didn't waste any words. He opened the ghost den and left, leaving only a red light in the sky.
After the crowd dispersed, the medical staff handled Wang Xiaoming's body with trepidation, while Cao Yanhua was responsible for arranging his funeral.
In Dajing City, on a street near Ping An Building, a tall man with a dark face and numb expression was investigating something.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew up for no reason, but it soon subsided, and Cao Yang's figure appeared on the street.
"Yang Jian killed Professor Wang?"
As soon as they met, Wei Jing asked.
"That's what happened. Wang Xiaoming tried to attack Yang Jian but failed, and was killed by Yang Jian instead. It's that simple."
Cao Yang shrugged and said.
"Although I don't know the inside story, judging from Professor Wang's personality, I think he has even arranged his own death. This should also be part of his plan."
Wei Jing's voice was hoarse, like an old damaged tape.
"There is no place for him in the captain's era. Wang Xiaoming can control ordinary ghost riders, but not the captain. So he personally planned his own death to establish Yang Jian's authority and at the same time confirm his position as the law enforcement captain."
Cao Yang patted him on the shoulder and didn't want to discuss this topic too much.
"It's a pity that the ghost in Gao Ming's body was taken away. I can only feel that there are traces of supernatural beings nearby, but I can't pinpoint the source. However, it can also be inferred that the group's target is Ping An Building."
"Chen Yi and Gao Ming are both dead. There is no one in charge in Dajing City now. Su Fan, Zhao Tong, and Lin Ye, who were recruited not long ago, have temporarily taken over the city's security and are keeping a close eye on this area. If any problems arise, the headquarters will be informed immediately."
Wei Jing sighed, feeling somewhat helpless.
Meanwhile, in Daifuku City.
An uninvited guest came to Ma Jun's office. He was a tall, bearded foreigner wearing a cowboy hat. He had a smile on his face and stared at Ma Jun intently, giving people a feeling of extreme danger.
"Foreign ghost rider, are you from the King's Organization?!"
Although Ma Jun slacked off every day, he had been paying attention to some things that happened in the psychic circle since Cao Yang came last time. A captain-level ghost rider would not do meaningless things. Since the other party took the initiative to come to him, he was obviously preparing for some possible events.
"You guessed right. I'll give you a bullet as a reward."
Cowboy Simon slightly adjusted his cowboy hat, then raised his head slightly, revealing a pair of dark eyes without pupils. A little green light appeared in the depths of his eyes, which looked weird and evil.
Then he took out an old double-barreled shotgun. A cold, black object was constantly wriggling in the barrel.
Ma Jun's face suddenly changed, but the reality did not leave him much time to think.
"It's not that easy to kill me."
Ma Jun quickly took out a candle and lit it. This was a candle given to him by Cao Yang. He said that while the candle was burning, the ghost rider could use his own supernatural powers to the maximum extent and would not die from the resurrection of the evil ghost.
He didn't have time to verify the authenticity and could only choose to believe it.
"Let's play a game. From now on, as long as you can find me in this city, I will play a game of chess with you."
Ma Jun's voice echoed in the office. He used the strongest supernatural power in his life to influence the city.
In the blink of an eye, Dafu City turned into an empty ghost town, and there was deathly silence in the ghost town.
