Chapter 23: Aftermath personnel, go home and draw cards
Jiang Chen then searched every corner of the hospital. After confirming that there was nothing else sneaking around, he went out and hailed a taxi. As the car drove out of the street where the hospital was located, three SUVs came towards him.
Although the people in the car were all in casual clothes, Jiang Chen could still feel the sharp temperament from them.
These people seemed to be chatting casually or looking around nonchalantly, but their sitting posture and position could ensure that they could take action at the first moment and form an effective battle formation.
And everyone's eyes are as sharp as an eagle, always watching any slight movement in the surroundings.
Jiang Chen instantly concluded that this was a group of true elites!
Although they are not ordinary people, they are definitely the strongest among ordinary people. Given the right equipment and terrain, each of them can fight against a hundred people at once. It is not an exaggeration to call them the king of soldiers.
He guessed the identities of these people.
In the convoy, the leader was a heroic woman in a black leather jacket. She noticed the direction Jiang Chen came from, looked at him carefully for a few more times, seemed to have confirmed something, and shouted seriously on the car intercom.
"salute!"
Everyone in the car realized something and looked towards Jiang Chen in the taxi. Their faces showed excitement and admiration. They stood straight and saluted.
Because they know that it is because of these extraordinary people fighting on the front line of exorcism that they can have the stable life they have now.
Strange people have to deal with sneaky things, face horrors that ordinary people can hardly imagine, come into contact with the darkest part of human nature, and take the greatest risks. They linger on the edge of life and death, stare directly at inhuman monsters, and defend peace on earth.
They deserve respect!
Jiang Chen also became serious and returned the greeting seriously.
In fact, he admired these post-processing personnel even more. The place where they had just handled a supernatural incident was often still fraught with danger. It took tremendous courage for a group of ordinary people to dare to deal with the aftermath.
But there is no way around it. This is the current situation in Kyushu, or in other words, in all the countries on the Blue Star. Extraordinary people are too scarce.
Jiang Chen had learned about it on the Underworld app. Just in Jiuzhou, the power system of the Wu Alliance and the aristocratic families was improving slowly. Some people started practicing since childhood and came out in their twenties with only D-level strength.
It was not a big deal in the past, but with the current concentration of Yin energy in the world and the frequency of supernatural events, it seems too slow and often the income is not enough to cover the expenses.
This is also why Chen Xue said before that the appearance of the underworld made the Wu League feel relieved.
Jiang Chen had a vague understanding of the system of the underworld from a few posts.
This is a quick method, which involves sealing the ghost into the body and using the ghost's power to deal with the ghost.
However, the mortality rate is too high. Even if we select the most mentally tough special forces, the mortality rate is as high as 90%.
To this end, the underworld has established a strict selection method, plus two or three years of special training, before trying to let the candidate ghost messenger seal the ghost into the body.
Generally speaking, there are not enough people in the underworld.
Therefore, we can only let ordinary people as backup ghosts to deal with the aftermath.
In fact, the death rate of post-disaster relief workers is not much lower than that of ordinary people, which is also a kind of helplessness.
Not long after, Jiangyuan Community was built.
Jiang Chen went upstairs to take a shower. It was already late now, and he wanted to order takeout, but he heard the sound of cooking and bursts of fragrance from the other side.
Sister Hong seemed to be accustomed to Jiang Chen's late return. She only started to prepare dinner after hearing him open the door.
Jiang Chen was not being polite, mainly because Sister Hong's cooking was quite delicious. He walked over and found the door ajar. When he entered, Sister Hong was busy in the kitchen. When she saw Jiang Chen come in, she smiled brightly.
"Is Xiaochen here? Wait a little longer, you can eat soon!"
"Today I made some very nourishing dishes. You've been busy these days, going out early and coming back late. I'll give you some nourishment and make sure you'll be full of energy and vitality!"
Sister Hong was cooking and talking at the same time. She spoke too quickly and when she said the last four words, her face turned red and she said "Pooh" twice.
Jiang Chen turned his head to glance at the figure in the apron, with a curvy figure and busy left and right, and couldn't help but cough dryly.
During the meal, as if to ease the previous awkwardness, Sister Hong took the initiative to find a topic. She patted Jiang Chen's arm and said, "You're really strong. Xiaochen, do all you exorcists pay attention to physical exercise?"
Jiang Chen nodded: "Some are, some are not."
He looked a little surprised. Why did Sister Hong ask me if I was healthy? Was she finally going to take action against me? That evil rich woman!
"Hahaha, then are you allowed to get close to women?" Sister Hong asked again.
Jiang Chen was shocked and asked such a sharp question!
Seeing his hesitant expression, Sister Hong was stunned for a moment, and then a blush rose on her cheeks. She also realized the ambiguity in her question and quickly said, "Don't misunderstand, don't misunderstand. I wanted to ask if you have a girlfriend. If not, I want to introduce you to one."
"Huh..." Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
He was still young, and it was difficult for him to resist the temptation when he encountered such a crossroads in his life. Fortunately, Sister Hong did not continue to press him, otherwise he might not be able to leave this room tonight.
"Huh? What? I don't have a girlfriend, but I'm only a sophomore..."
In the video, Jiang Chen always looked confident and sure of success. It was rare to see him embarrassed. Sister Hong couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle: "Hahaha, that's why she said she was your girlfriend, not that she was setting you up on a blind date!"
"Don't worry, that girl is about the same age as you, but she's a big beauty. I'll introduce you to each other later!" Sister Hong waved her hand, looking like a matchmaker.
Jiang Chen: “…”
After finishing his meal and returning home, Jiang Chen took a look at the system panel.
[Host]: Jiang Chen
【Ghost Qi】：1026
[Yomon Card]: Deer Power Immortal (2-star)
After killing Patient No. 18, his ghost energy exceeded one thousand again.
However, Jiang Chen thought about it and did not draw the second two-star demon card, but just recited silently.
"System, draw two one-star demon cards."
They were going to the Zheng Group's villa the next day. It was obvious that there was something wrong with Zheng Shao, so he had to make some preparations. However, it would be a waste if he only had a two-star demon card and didn't encounter a strong enough ghost.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for drawing a one-star demon card - Special Hermit."
"Ding, congratulations to the host for drawing a one-star demon card - Yi Hai Long."
