Volume 3: Death in Progress Chapter 047 Death Time
Chen Yue curled up in Shen Cheng's arms and asked nervously in a low voice: "Hubby, who called?"
Shen Cheng shook his head and replied, "I don't know. That person didn't say anything. It might be those two immortals from yesterday. Otherwise, they wouldn't know about your nightmare. Okay, honey, you haven't slept for three days. Take a rest."
Chen Yue was really having a severe headache at this time. She did not refuse Shen Cheng this time but nodded and said, "Honey, I'm sorry that I can't let you rest again. When I don't have nightmares anymore, I will definitely treat you twice as well. But now you have to stay by my side all the time! Please don't leave me, I'm really afraid of having that nightmare again."
Shen Cheng gently touched Chen Yue's haggard face and nodded, "Don't worry, your husband will not leave you even a step."
Since Chen Ping and Li Xuan had prepared their driving licenses in advance in the Death Base , they were the only ones driving the two newly purchased cars. Li Xuan and Chen Ping drove the newly purchased cars and took the remaining four people to Chen Yue's house, which was closest to their current location.
"The mission prompts us to change the death time of the ten people on the death list, but if it is a ghost who wants to kill them, we have no chance to stop it. Can the ghosts in this mission be killed by us?"
During the driving process, Qiao Yan couldn't help but express her doubts. Zhang Fengyu, who was sitting in the same car, thought about Qiao Yan's question and explained it to her: "We can't stop the ghost from killing people, but since the hint said so, I think the ghost must meet certain conditions to kill those ten people. Just like driving, even if you can drive, you still need a driver's license. I think the ghost also needs a prerequisite to trigger him to kill. Otherwise, he wouldn't give us such an unsolvable hint."
After hearing what Zhang Fengyu said, Qiao Yan nodded as if she understood. Chen Ping, who was driving, also took over Zhang Fengyu's topic and continued: "We don't know the trigger condition yet, but it may be related to what those ten people have experienced in the past few days. This mission does not force us not to talk about the death space and information about this mission. If those ten people really don't believe us, we will tell them everything. If that doesn't work, we will force them! I hope you won't be soft-hearted then!"
After hearing Chen Ping's words, Zhang Fengyu and Qiao Yan nodded at the same time. Chen Ping had deliberately played the voice-over when he called the ten people before, so they also knew that these ten people seemed to have had some strange experiences before. But the one with the best attitude was Chen Yue's husband, while the others hung up the phone after a few words.
In the other car, Zhao Liang and Cheng En were terrified. They were shaking all over but didn't say anything. When Li Xuan saw the two people in the rearview mirror, she couldn't help but frown and said to them, "You two should show some courage. Which is scarier, ghosts or death? You'd better think it through. If you think ghosts are scarier than death, then you'd better get out of the car and find a place to commit suicide. At least you can leave a whole body. Otherwise, if you meet a ghost, you will definitely die!"
After hearing what Li Xuan said, the two were shocked and quickly shook their heads and said, "We are not afraid of ghosts, we are not afraid!" Although the two said so, the fear on their faces did not dissipate at all.
The six people quickly drove to the residential area where Chen Yue lived, and at this time the stipulated time of death was suddenly announced.
"Chen Yue died between 1:05 and 1:15, including 1:15. This is consistent with Wang Yingjie's prescribed time of death!"
"What's going on? The two deceased died at the same time?" Zhao Liang was terrified after hearing the same time of death of the two people.
After hearing the reminder, Zhang Fengyu looked down at his watch and said to everyone, "The time now is 12:55, and there are still 10 minutes left until the stipulated time of death!"
Li Xuan hesitated for a moment and quickly made a decision: "Then I will take the two of them to the other person. I will leave this place to you. Ms. Qiao, Zhao Liang, you two follow me!"
"Oh, oh! Good!"
Zhao Liang and Qiao Yan hesitated for a moment and then went back to the car with Li Xuan. Then Li Xuan drove the three of them to the home of another victim.
Now everyone was confused as to why this mission had to forcibly separate them. However, time was already very urgent. Zhang Fengyu and the other two who stayed here did not hesitate any more and rushed over in a hurry based on the information about Chen Yue's home address in their minds.
"Building B, 15th Floor, Room 303. This should be Chen Yue's home. Cheng En, you're a newcomer, so try not to talk for a while. Zhang Fengyu and I will try to find out what happened to Chen Yue recently."
"knew!"
"all!"
After instructing Cheng En, Chen Ping knocked on Chen Yue's door. Soon a man's voice was heard from inside the door. Chen Ping was somewhat familiar with the voice. It was Chen Yue's husband Shen Cheng.
"who are you?"
Chen Ping smiled at the cat's eye and said, "I called you before, and we said we would meet in person to discuss the details later."
Although Shen Cheng recognized Chen Ping by his voice, he was hesitant to ask when he saw that there were two people behind Chen Ping: "How do you know I live here? Who are you?"
Seeing that Shen Cheng was reluctant to open the door for them, Chen Ping guessed Shen Cheng 's worry. He took out his specially prepared police ID from his pocket and pointed it at the peephole.
“We are the police!”
Shen Cheng carefully looked through the peephole at the ID that Chen Ping showed. After finding that there was nothing wrong, he opened the door. However, the doubt in his eyes became more serious: "How did the police know that my wife had a nightmare? No one else should know except those two immortals."
Chen Ping was not surprised at all that Shen Cheng opened the door without hesitation after seeing the ID he showed. Not to mention that Shen Cheng was not a policeman, even a real policeman would not find any problem with the ID after seeing it, as it was absolutely genuine.
After Shen Cheng opened the door, he politely welcomed Chen Ping and the other two in. Zhang Fengyu looked at Shen Cheng and found that Shen Cheng's face was not very good, especially the dark circles under his eyes that were like a panda.
"Have you been very tired from work recently? Why do you have such big bags under your eyes?"
After hearing what Zhang Fengyu said, Shen Cheng smiled bitterly and said, "It's all because of my wife. She has been having the same nightmare for the past half month. Later, my wife was so scared that she refused to go to sleep. I had no choice but to let her go to sleep and I would stay by her side. If she had a nightmare, I would wake her up."
During the conversation, the three followed Shen Cheng to the living room. After briefly introducing each other, Chen Ping also talked about their purpose. Of course, this purpose was just an excuse he came up with to get more information: "The reason why I know your wife has nightmares is because there was a serial murder case recently, and the victims all had the same nightmare before they died."
"Ah? A serial murder case ? And you have a recurring nightmare?"
Shen Cheng was obviously surprised after hearing this, but then he asked in confusion: "But how did you know that my wife also had the same nightmare? I don't think I have ever mentioned this to anyone?"
