Chapter 964 Farewell to the Bell
"So the shadow that Brother Fugui saw was the ghost that killed Mu Wanming. Is it...still here?" Huaiyi's voice just fell, as if the temperature in the room All declined accordingly.
Hearing what Huaiyi said, Ouyang Huanbin became even more frightened, and urged with a trembling voice: "What are you still lingering on, let's go quickly."
Jiang Cheng turned around and faced Hang Zhong walked away, "If you want to leave, no one will stop you. But I can tell you that it may not be safe to go back. This wall clock appeared suddenly, and the way out may be inside."
Miao Qing and Liu Hui also came up at this moment, looking at the wall clock carefully, but they were just observing. But no one touched it with their hands.
The wall clock didn't know whether it was broken or something. It had stopped, and the hour and minute hands remained motionless. "1:17..." Jiang Cheng stared at the wall clock and said softly.
"Do any of you still remember when you heard Mu Wanming screaming?" Huai Yi suddenly asked.
“It happened so suddenly that I didn’t pay attention to the time, but when I returned to my room from Mu Wanming’s room, I glanced at my phone and it was almost 2 o’clock.” Liu Hui recalled.
"So counting the time we stayed in Mu Wanming's room, the time when she had the nightmare was very close to the time when the clock stopped." Miao Qing did a simple calculation in his mind, and the conclusion he came to was surprising. disturbed.
Bai Xiaojie swallowed nervously, looked around, as if confirming something, and then whispered: "Is this the time when those things appear? It's 1:17 every morning. Just...will appear?”
This is a new discovery. If it can be confirmed, it will be very important for their next mission. However, Jiang Cheng turned his head and asked her in one sentence, "Then how do you explain the matter in the library?"
Just Not long ago, a ghost in a black dress appeared there and hanged Jiang Zhao.
There were no new discoveries in the room. The sky outside the window gradually darkened, and Mu Wanming's head was still on the ground, seeming to remind everyone of what had happened here.
Everyone left the room and stood in the corridor outside. There were some agreed-upons in the task, such as not wandering out at night unless there were special circumstances.
The alarm clock pattern on the dinner plate, the hanging wall clock in the room, the frozen 1:17... Jiang Cheng felt a layer of haze in his heart, and he had an indescribable feeling.
This series of discoveries is more like bait than clues. Invisible to them, there is an invisible hand, leading them bit by bit into the abyss.
Perhaps... the owner of this hand is the one that the soul of the missing person dare not mention.
Everyone was a little tired and planned to go back to their rooms to rest, but the next scene made everyone dumbfounded. The door to the room could not be opened. "What happened?" Bai Xiaojie turned the door handle hard, and the handle was OK. The door just won't open.
Miao Qing frowned and walked forward, opening the door to Bai Xiaojie's room with just a slight push.
I saw a black table facing the door. On the table, there was an old clock. The clock face was facing everyone. It was supported by a tripod below. On the clock case Rusty.
But what really attracts everyone's attention is the time above.
At 2:45, everyone can see clearly.
"It seems that none of us can go back to the previous room. We need to exchange rooms, and now there is an extra clock in each room." Through the layout of these two rooms, Jiang Cheng has already Got an idea.
“And the clock time in each room is different.” Liu Hui added.
There was no longer too much communication. Everyone chose a new room. Under Jiang Cheng's hint, he and Fatty Huaiyi did not move, but let others choose the room first.
Miao Qing and others opened and closed the door very quickly, as if they were deliberately avoiding other people.
When everyone entered the room, only Jiang Cheng and the three of them were left in the corridor. Huaiyi seemed to understand something at this moment. He squinted at the empty corridor and lowered his voice: "They are worried about being seen in the room. "The time on the clock."
The fat man looked around. It was already half dark outside and the corridor was empty. There was an uneasy atmosphere, "Doctor." The fat man hugged his arms tightly, "We will finally choose the room... Is it really okay?"
Without answering the fat man's question, Jiang Cheng glanced at them one by one. After passing the closed door, he had memorized the other people's rooms, then walked to an empty room, pushed it gently, and the door opened.
He did not enter the door, but stood outside the door and looked inside. Using the light from the corridor, he found the clock in front of the bed. "It's 2:59..." The fat man stretched his arms. He squinted his neck to see more clearly.
Later, under Jiang Cheng's arrangement, Fatty and Huaiyi each opened a door, but they only opened it and did not go in.
The clock in the door opened by Fatty stayed at 5 o'clock, but behind the door opened by Huai Yi, it was 1:55. Huai Yi couldn't help but gasped when he saw this scene. He was angry and his expression became tense.
"Fat man." Jiang Cheng greeted, "Just go into your own room."
"Oh."
Then, Jiang Cheng turned his head and looked at Man Mian Nervous Huai Yi, after a while, nodded to him and said softly: "It's okay, let's change, you come to my room."
Hearing this, Huai Yi stared at Jiang Cheng's face, his expression dazed for a moment. After he realized what he was saying, he was obviously a little nervous, with a complex expression on his face that contained rejection, "But here..."
Jiang Cheng shook his head and didn't give it to him. A chance to talk.
The fat man also saw some tricks. He turned to look at the calm doctor and said in surprise: "It's time! The earlier the time, the more likely people are to be entangled with those things."
< br>Slowly, some of the things that had been unexplained before began to loosen up. The reason why Mu Wanming died first was because the clock in her room was the earliest of all.
At 1:17, the ghost came to her at 1:17, that extremely real nightmare.
Thinking about it now, the clock pattern has always been hidden on the dinner plate, but the first time we ate a foreign object, so we didn't check it carefully, but from that time on, the curse had been activated.
After they discovered the clock pattern, the law of this curse officially surfaced.
Thinking of this, Fatty couldn't help but feel a little scared. If he had discovered the pattern on the dinner plate later, then they would be killed one by one by ghosts without any clue.
It would be a massacre.
What they can confirm so far is that the first death of Mu Wanming was at 1:17, the door that Miao Qing opened just now was at 2:45, and the door in Jiangcheng was at 2:59 , it was 1:55 for Huaiyi, and it was 5:00 for the fat man who was scratching his head. He didn't need to worry about Jiang Cheng at all. It was almost dawn at that time.
In other words, Huaiyi is the one closest to death in the known time.
To be precise, it was the person who stayed in Huaiyi's room. (End of this chapter)
