I have a ghost diary

"Wait a minute," Liu Xuewen called out to him, "Regarding the physical examination, Dr. Ning from the research institute wants to be in charge of it for you. What do you think of that?"

Chu Jiang was a little confused. "Who is this Expert Ning? Haven't I always been under Expert Chen's supervision?"

The deputy minister coughed. "She is a female expert from our research institute. Do you remember when you first joined the company, two experts were very interested in your information and hoped that you could become their research assistant?"

"One of them is expert Ning."

"Later, you chose to become the person in charge, and the HR department arranged for expert Chen to customize a solution for you, so you didn't have much interaction with the other person."

"But she is still interested in you, and she seems even more curious about you after you resolved the S-class incident."

"Because of the outstanding contributions that Ms. Ning has made to the research institute, we are also seeking your opinion after she made this request."

"If you are unwilling, then expert Chen will continue to be in charge; if you are willing, then expert Ning will do this."

"You've made a medical checkup so complicated," Chu Jiang shook his head repeatedly. "What did that guy surnamed Chen say?"

"It seems that Expert Ning has already convinced him beforehand, so now it all depends on your personal opinion."

"Then I'll talk to Chen Yehua first." Chu Jiang still felt something was off.

Could it be that the female expert recognized him as a descendant of Chu Jiang? After all, Chu Jiang's videos are circulating everywhere now, and can even be downloaded from some special foreign websites...

“Okay,” Liu Xuewen continued, “Also, although the award ceremony was omitted as you requested, it still needs to be announced. You don’t have any objections to that, do you?”

"No, it's fine to announce it casually." Chu Jiang replied casually and got up to leave the office.

As for issuing a written approval, that's just verbal; what era are we living in? Liu Xuewen would naturally explain it to Expert Chen via electronic communication, which would also be convenient for archiving.

Upon reaching the door, Chen Yuting was still waiting, which surprised Chu Jiang. "What, are you here to be my tour guide today?"

Chen Yuting nodded slightly. "The research institute is very large, with many internal areas. We're afraid you might not be familiar with it. Just let me know where you want to go."

As the two were talking, they suddenly heard a broadcast: "We are announcing a personnel change. Based on the needs of the research institute's development and after discussion and decision by the headquarters' senior management, effective immediately, Chu Jiang is officially promoted to the position of team leader."

Hearing the clear female voice echoing throughout the research institute, Chu Jiang was speechless. Was this what they called an "announcement"? Why not just issue a written notice? Why broadcast it over the loudspeaker...?

P.S.: No reward for now. Haven't you noticed I'm updating later and later? Maintaining three updates a day is already a struggle; I don't have the energy for a reward. I don't want to scam money and then pretend it never happened.

Chapter 200 Conflict Between Captains

After leaving the Supernatural Department with Chen Yuting, Chu Jiang planned to meet Chen Bingye first.

The expert's office was on the tenth basement level. Chu Jiang and his companion took the elevator and, upon arriving at that floor, unexpectedly encountered a delegation.

Chu Jiang was somewhat surprised to see a large group of people walk in as soon as the elevator doors opened. At the same time, he noticed that the operator next to him tensed up immediately.

The delegation opposite them hadn't realized it was Chu Jiang yet, but the people from the research institute did notice him. They hadn't expected to meet him under these circumstances.

You should know that until just now, they were still discussing Chu Jiang and the content of the broadcast.

After a brief pause, Chu Jiang walked out of the elevator expressionlessly, and Chen Yuting quickly followed.

The delegation was led by a blond white man, who politely led the people behind him to make way.

On the other side, the researchers accompanying them also made way. Just then, the leader, a middle-aged man with a friendly appearance, nodded to Chu Jiang.

Chu Jiang didn't recognize him, but he still nodded slightly in greeting.

This scene caught the attention of the white man, who immediately smiled and said, "Sir, please wait a moment."

Chu Jiang was somewhat surprised; the Mandarin was quite good, with no accent at all.

"What is it?" Chu Jiang asked calmly, showing no disrespect, and left without saying a word.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Chu Jiang? If not, please allow me to apologize first."

Chu Jiang nodded slightly, which made the white man's eyes light up. "What a coincidence, we were just talking about you."

"I am a member of the U.S. Paranormal Investigation and Defense Agency, BPRD; and also the head of the delegation visiting Research Institute No. 21."

"My name is Bruce Miller, nice to meet you."

As he spoke, Bruce extended his right hand.

Chu Jiang also reached out and shook hands with him. The other party didn't try to probe him or anything; it was just a normal handshake.

"That's enough, you guys go about your business, I have other things to do." Chu Jiang had no interest in these foreign ghost masters, so he waved his hand and prepared to leave.

This made Bruce visibly anxious. The other foreigners in the delegation also realized at this moment that, judging from the delegation leader's attitude, this must be the man who solved the S-class incident.

Just as the leader of the research institute was hesitating about whether to invite Chu Jiang to the meeting for discussion, a gaunt man with a black robe and sunken eyes suddenly smiled.

He said to the person next to him, "Hey, now that the real captain is here, shouldn't someone who's no longer the captain have the sense to leave our team?"

This statement was clearly directed at Yan Wanli.

Yes, Yan Wanli was also in the research institute's team. Chu Jiang saw him just now, but he didn't greet the guy.

Faced with the provocation of this gloomy man, Yan Wanli, a hot-tempered fellow, also became increasingly hostile.

It seems that the two of them had already clashed before they met Chu Jiang.

Upon seeing this, Chu Jiang paused for a moment, wanting to see what Yan Wanli, who had such a poor reputation, would do.

The deputy minister in charge of administration frowned. "Alright, Zhang Yibiao, mind your manners."

Zhang Yibiao agreed with a smile, but his gaze remained fixed on Yan Wanli, as if he wanted to see if the other party would swallow his anger.

So, was Yan Wanli that kind of person?

Yan Wanli's angry face suddenly relaxed, and he took his hands out of his pockets. "Fine, I'll quit. Anyway, I'm not the captain anymore. You guys go to the meeting."

Just as everyone was surprised, Yan Wanli turned around nonchalantly, seemingly wanting to leave.

"Wait!" The vice minister was already cursing Zhang Yibiao in his heart. If he let Yan Wanli withdraw like this, it would not only break Yan Wanli's heart, but also the hearts of everyone else.

Unexpectedly, Yan Wanli suddenly exclaimed "Eh!" as he passed by Chu Jiang.

He looked at Chen Yuting and said, "I remember you. You seemed to have attended the high-level meeting regarding the S-level incident in Luohe City last time, right?"

Chen Yuting immediately sensed something was wrong, but faced with Yan Wanli's question, she dared not not answer and could only whisper, "Yes."

"Then that's it. I remember one of the captains threatened to kill you."

“I saw you were so scared you cried, your whole body was shaking.”

At this point, Yan Wanli remarked, "Back then, I wanted to reprimand that guy, but it was Miss Yao who spoke up before me."

The "beautiful Yao" he mentioned was also in the research institute's team; she was a mature-looking female team leader dressed in red. There were only three team leaders present this time.

When Chu Jiang saw Yan Wanli suddenly start chatting with Chen Yuting, he was initially surprised, but after hearing the last part, his face darkened. "Chen Yuting, is that true?"

Chen Yuting was extremely nervous, her hands were sweating profusely, and she stammered, "Well, actually, it's nothing, it was a misunderstanding... it was resolved right away."

She wasn't stupid; she naturally understood that Yan Wanli was using someone else to do his dirty work, deliberately trying to provoke a conflict between Chu Jiang and the other captain.

On the other side, Zhang Yibiao, dressed in a black robe, also frowned, but then he relaxed slightly and nodded to Chu Jiang from afar, "Captain Chu, it's just a misunderstanding. I was too anxious at the time."

In Zhang Yibiao's view, Chu Jiang and Yan Wanli had a very bad relationship. Not only had they had a falling out before, but this time, the reason why Yan Wanli even voluntarily resigned from his position as captain was also because of Chu Jiang.

Although Yan Wanli himself didn't say it, the other team leaders were very clear about the promotion mechanism.

If they thought about it a little more deeply, they would know that Yan Wanli was probably afraid that Chu Jiang would pick on him, so he might as well resign voluntarily and save face.

Since these two people have a bad relationship, Chu Jiang wouldn't be foolish enough to fall for such an obvious attempt to sow discord.

"Do you want me to ask again? Yes or no?" Chu Jiang completely ignored Zhang Yibiao.

Chen Yuting broke out in a cold sweat. "Yes."

"Then why didn't you tell me?" Chu Jiang asked again.

"This... I think it's unnecessary..." Chen Yuting lowered her head, not daring to look at Chu Jiang.

Chu Jiang simply shook his head and looked at Yan Wanli, “Cause, Process, Result.”

Yan Wanli immediately understood. He coughed and, in an absolutely neutral and objective tone, without any provocation, described in detail what happened at the meeting.

Because he knew very well that Chu Jiang was about to get serious.

Chapter 201 Three Bows Before the Spirit Tablet

After listening, Chu Jiang nodded slightly and commented expressionlessly, "Your acting is terrible. Next time something like this happens, just tell me directly, or I'll beat you up too."

Yan Wanli smiled awkwardly, "I understand, I understand."

This surprised the researchers even more; the relationship between the two people didn't seem to be as bad as they had imagined.

Chu Jiang stopped looking at Chen Yuting and instead looked at Zhang Yibiao, who was wearing a black robe.

However, when he spoke, he was still addressing Chen Yuting: "When you are in this position, you represent more than just yourself."

“If someone threatens to kill my operator, it means that in his eyes I am nothing more than someone who can be bullied.”

"And what I'm going to do is make this person regret it."

With those emotionless, cold words, Chu Jiang's hands rapidly transformed into a pair of withered, bluish-black palms, resembling those of a corpse.

This change was noticed by everyone present.

Almost all of them had seen the video Chu Jiang recorded, but only by seeing it up close now could they truly understand the feeling of facing death head-on.

It's as if just one more glance could drag you into an abyss...

"Wait!" Zhang Yibiao's expression turned grim. "Back then, you hadn't yet resolved the S-level incident; you were just the head of a small city. I didn't mean to target you."

Chu Jiang's lips curled slightly, still devoid of any emotion. "So you mean an unknown person in charge can be bullied at will? You're really blunt."

As he spoke, he stepped forward.

"Wait a minute," the deputy minister of administration said, sweat beading on his forehead. This Chu Jiang was ready to fight at the drop of a hat, and this was headquarters!

If things get out of hand and we provoke Mr. Xu, then no one will benefit.

Bruce from the delegation was also somewhat surprised, but he remained silent, simply watching the conflict unfold between the two sides.

When Zhang Yibiao saw Chu Jiang walking straight towards him, his expression hardened.

His personality isn't much better to begin with. I was being so polite to him, and he still showed me no respect. Does he think I'm made of clay?!
