Since the day of the first change, the heaven and the earth have undergone changes for several consecutive days, and tonight is no exception.
However, this mutation presents an obvious fact, that is, the magnitude of the mutation seems to be decreasing day by day.
Tonight, the movement was much quieter again.
The ground will still feel shaking occasionally, but the magnitude is similar to the previous aftershocks. It is roughly like the feeling of a boat swaying on the water.
Everyone has become accustomed to this kind of magnitude, and they feel at ease and hide in the house.
With five people staying, it’s actually not too crowded.
After all, there are two-meter-long beds on the first and second floors, and there is a small attic above the second floor, which can actually accommodate one person.
The three girls definitely had to live in one room, so they chose the second floor.
Jiang Yue and Du Yifeng have many choices. They can either live on the same floor together, or one can live on the first floor and the other can live in a small attic. At least they can be considered independent spaces.
Jiang Yue was very generous and allowed Du Yifeng to choose first.
Du Yifeng thought that the bed on the first floor had been rolled over by a man and a woman. Although he did not succeed, Du Yifeng was somewhat mysophobic and felt that he could not accept it psychologically.
Therefore, he resolutely chose to go to the small attic.
The small attic is a bit small, but it has the best privacy.
Just after settling in, footsteps came from the courtyard, and the footsteps naturally came to the door.
Deep toot!
There was a knock on the door.
When I opened the door, I saw that it was Brother Zhi.
Brother Zhi held a large backpack in his hand and stuffed it into Jiang Yue's arms.
“Sorry about the power outage, you may need these things. This is all I can do, buddy.”
Before Jiang Yue could react, Brother Zhi waved his hand and turned around.
When I opened the big backpack, I saw that there were several power banks and several night lights inside.
This night light is infrared-sensitive. When it senses the heat of the human body within a certain range, it will automatically emit light, and the light source is particularly soft.
In addition, there is actually a box of chocolates, a bag of bread, a bunch of bananas, and several bottles of energy drinks.
These things should have been collected by Brother Zhi in the Yunqiong Hotel.
It was a thoughtful gift to send it to Jiang Yue specially.
Carrying your mobile phone with you is a daily habit developed in the sunny era. Even if the power is out for many days, if your mobile phone is not with you, it will feel like it is missing its soul.
Seeing the power bank that Jiang Yue took out, Han Jingjing and Xu Chunru smiled politely and each accepted one.
Du Yifeng remained silent and took one too.
Yu Siyuan was the only one who thought she had a normal relationship with Jiang Yue. When Zhang Jiye targeted Jiang Yue, she never tried to smooth things over. She didn't have the nerve to speak up, but she said she didn't want to.
Brother Zhi took six power banks in this bag, but there was still plenty left.
Since the person didn’t say anything, it was naturally impossible for Jiang Yue to take the initiative to back him up.
Take out your mobile phone and connect it to the power bank.
Three women and one drama. After the three girls moved in, the B&B suddenly became a lot noisier.
Du Yifeng shrugged, with an unbearable expression on his face.
“Jiang Yue, I’ll leave this to you, I’ll go upstairs.”
“Don’t worry, watch this video first.”
Jiang Yue turned on his phone and found the video of everyone leaving in the same direction.
The section he intercepted was not long, only a few minutes.
But these few minutes of video contain a lot of information.
In the first few seconds of the video, nothing seems out of the ordinary. The crowd is evacuating and heading back to their homes in all directions.
At that moment, there was no obvious change in the video.
But almost everyone's figures paused at the same time, as if they were electrocuted.
Then, the style of painting became weird.
Everyone turned around and staggered away in the same direction, as if they had been cursed or received some strange call.
Like a walking corpse, wandering towards the depths of the night until it disappears.
Suddenly, the video was interrupted.
Once is naturally not enough.
While everyone's scalp was numb and in a state of shock and fear, Jiang Yue clicked on the replay.
This kind of scene is comparable to showing a ghost movie late at night.
“Is this evil?”
“They must have been possessed, everyone looked as if they had been collectively beheaded.”
Hand down?
The ancient rumored head-lowering technique does have the effect of controlling other people's will and actions.
However, this kind of secret technique is extremely rare in Dazhang Country.
“Pay attention to their noses, each of their noses are twitching. In other words, if some kind of force causes them to lose control of their behavior and thoughts, it is most likely intruded through the sense of smell.” Jiang Yue reminded.
Everyone else present could not help but touch their noses.
In this way, this nose is still a disaster.
Xu Chunru looked worried: "According to this, this place is not safe. If something like this happens tonight, how will we deal with it?"
It’s a very real problem, and it’s scary to think about it carefully.
Thinking about it for a moment, if this problem falls on them, will the outcome be better than those of the people in the video?
Most people have no idea.
Jiang Yue also saw that the mood of others was a little wrong.
"There is no need to be overly pessimistic. This moment is the same as that moment. If it is invaded through the sense of smell, it is not impossible to prevent it."
"Looking at the appearance of these people, they seem to be completely unprepared. I'm afraid it's not easy to guard against them, right?"
"They were really unprepared at the time. That's because they didn't know it in advance, and they were all outdoors and concentrated in a fixed area. It should be better if we were inside the house. In addition, if we are mentally prepared in advance, we should be able to prevent it.
control."
“Yes, there are masks in the official backpacks, and we can put them on.”
There is a medical kit in the standard backpack. In addition to medicines, there are also some commonly used medical supplies, and masks are one of them.
At this point, everyone silently found masks from their backpacks.
Although it is a medical disposable mask, it is still better than nothing. The small mask that usually would not be looked at gives them an inexplicable sense of security.
“Shall I inform Zhang Jiye and Xie Feng?” Xu Chunru said.
"I'll go." Jiang Yue was still thinking about other things, so he volunteered.
"You all go upstairs. It's best not to stick your head outside the window and not to sleep too hard. It's best to take turns to rest. Always leave one person to watch."
Thinking about the attack that Xu Chunru and the others encountered, this incident also seemed dangerous.
The other party was so impatient that they started to spy on Xu Chunru and the others, and it was obvious that they were very murderous. Jiang Yue estimated that they came with a mission.
At the registration site before, Jiang Yue noticed those two guys. They were almost the last ones to sign up. From this, it can be seen that this was a temporary move and was extremely hasty.
Such a hasty registration is obviously not for the task of certifying extraordinary beings, but for this group of people.
Whether it is directed at one person or several is currently unknown.
But there is no doubt that this is definitely a potential threat.
Zhang Jiye was targeting Jiang Yue, and even a blind person could see it.
However, Xu Chunru had no doubt that Jiang Yue would not inform Zhang Jiye and the others.
Zhang Jiye's pattern is only as big as a bean, while Jiang Yue's is obviously the opposite.
As for whether Zhang Jiye and others believe it, that depends on themselves.
If you really want to die, no one can stop you.
Jiang Yue pushed the door open and went out, locked the door, and made small tricks on the doors and windows to prevent anyone from breaking in.
Knocked on Zhang Jiye's door, and the one who opened the door was Xie Feng.
"why you?"
Although Xie Feng was not like Zhang Jiye who always targeted and made excuses, the arrogance in his bones made him not have much favorable impression of Jiang Yue.
Seeing Jiang Yue come to the door without saying a word, he instinctively became a little wary. He thought Jiang Yue came to the door to cause trouble.
“There is a mask in the standard backpack. If you don’t want to die, you’d better wear it.”
Xie Feng was not mentally prepared for Jiang Yue's words. He looked confused and was about to ask a few questions when Jiang Yue turned around and left and quickly disappeared.
Zhang Jiye asked impatiently from behind: "Who is it? Du Yifeng?"
Xie Feng looked strange and said, "It's the one named Jiang."
"What does he want to do?" Zhang Jiye's expression changed, thinking that Jiang Yue was looking for trouble.
“Don’t panic, they’ve already left.”
“Fart! Who is so panicked? What does he want to do? Is this a demonstration? Is he threatening me?”
“He said that if you don’t want to die, you’d better wear a mask.”
“That’s it?” Zhang Jiye was stunned.
"That's it." Xie Feng nodded, "Are you trying to scare us in the middle of the night? Brother Ye, you definitely won't wear it, right?"
Zhang Jiye curled his lips, waved his hands with a disapproving look on his face, and turned around to go back to the house.
Then he said something that almost made Xie Feng fall to the ground.
“That kid must have thought I wouldn’t wear it, but I didn’t let him guess it right.”
…
The words have been brought to Jiang Yue. As for whether Zhang Jiye and the others wear them, Jiang Yue doesn't care.
Soon, Jiang Yue returned to the hotel area and asked to see Brother Zhi by name.
Brother Zhi was so polite in giving him food and drinks. As a man, you should pay attention to how you come and go.
“Brother, what else are you missing?” Brother Zhi came out shirtless and wearing a bath towel.
“There’s nothing missing. Brother Zhi, I thought about it carefully just now, and I think it’s safer for everyone to wear masks tonight.”
Zhi Ge also saw that part of the surveillance video.
The people who disappeared that day may have really inhaled some poison, or some kind of drug that controlled their mind and behavior, causing them to lose control of themselves and become a walking zombie.
“Brother, did you come here specifically just to say this?”
Jiang Yue smiled calmly: "Maybe you have already thought of it, Brother Zhi, but if I don't say this, I will feel uncomfortable."
“Haha, to be honest, I really didn’t expect it. If someone told me to wear a mask, I would definitely think they were farting, but brother, I believe it.”
The relationship between people is so wonderful.
Some people speak so eloquently that it is difficult to believe even half of the punctuation marks in their thousands of words.
Some people don’t need to say much. They can speak to their hearts in just a few words and believe them unconditionally.
“There is a cafe inside with a lot of good wine. Why don’t you come in and have a drink?” Brother Zhi invited again.
“No, there are still some things that need to be investigated clearly.” Jiang Yue declined politely.
Seeing Jiang Yue's leaving figure, Brother Zhi sighed and murmured: "It's not simple. This young man is not simple."
Jiang Yue returned to the B&B area, his body suddenly accelerated, and like a ghost, he quickly disappeared into the dark night.
Now entering private time.
The 25 B&Bs are located in a relatively quiet location. This was probably specially arranged for academics like Professor Lu to avoid too many distractions.
Jiang Yue leaned forward and leaned against the wooden window of the villa, listening to what was going on inside.
After a while, Jiang Yue heard some information.
Thank God, there is only one person living in Building 25.
This man was lying on the bed, and he actually had a tablet in his hand, and he didn’t know what he was putting on it. He was babbling, which sounded a bit unserious.
The most irritating thing is that this guy didn’t have headphones on or something, but he was playing an external sound.
Jiang Yue remembered that Professor Lu’s left assistant was holding a tablet in his hand when he first arrived.
Could it be the left assistant?
But it’s wrong to think about it. It’s been so many days. Even if it’s on standby, it’s almost out of power, right?
Besides, a private tablet must have a fingerprint or pattern lock set up, and it cannot be opened under normal circumstances, right?
It will be easier to make sure the other party is a person.
I turned over and landed on the balcony on the second floor.
The large balcony on the second floor has a sliding glass door, which is locked.
However, this kind of hasp lock is obviously designed to protect against gentlemen rather than villains.
Jiang Yue squeezed lightly in the middle, and the buckle was pushed open.
Jiang Yue slowly opened the door and disappeared into the room in a flash.
The second floor was completely dark, but with Jiang Yue's current night vision ability, it did not affect his actions.
Jiang Yue was not in a hurry to go downstairs, but the cat was on the edge of the corridor.
Handlessly picked up the lid of a teacup and rolled it down the wooden stairs.
If the other party can't hear this, then this guy is not here to participate in the selection of extraordinary people, but to be funny.
Sure enough, after the guy woke up, he jumped up from the bed like a carp.
With one hand he touched the engineer shovel beside the bed, and with the other hand he held the flashlight. He walked suspiciously to the edge of the wooden steps and shone the flashlight up and down.
Jiang Yue's location is in a blind spot. If you don't go upstairs and search carefully, you will definitely not be able to see him.
The guy took a look and didn't notice it. He actually turned off the flashlight, tiptoed on the steps, and quietly climbed up the stairs.
The footsteps were so light that they were almost inaudible.
Had it not been for Jiang Yue's excellent hearing, it would have been hard to notice.
When he reached the last two steps, the flashlight in the man's hand suddenly lit up and he swept towards the darkness on the second floor.
But at this moment, his neck was suddenly hit by an electric force.
The body stiffened and he lost consciousness.
Jiang Yue held his fallen body with one hand and caught the flashlight that fell from his hand with the other.
Carrying the guy downstairs, Jiang Yue tore up a few sheets, tied the guy's hands and feet tightly, blindfolded his eyes, and then gagged his mouth.
He is not afraid of this guy's backlash, he just does this because he doesn't want to be disturbed by this guy.
together’s off Out out of coma, yelling or struggling wildly, will inevitably alarm other people. Jiang Yue just came to investigate Professor Lu’s situation, and didn’t intend to kill anyone.
The video was still playing on the tablet on the bed, and it turned out to be a sex video. It didn’t look like a movie downloaded from the Internet, but a selfie for self-entertainment.
What Jiang Yue never expected was that the man and woman in the video were actually Professor Lu and Assistant Zuo he was looking for!
Jiang Yue felt that his three views had been subverted.
So, this tablet really belongs to the left assistant?
It’s impossible for the tablet to be unlocked, right?
Could this guy be able to crack the code? Or did he just try his luck and draw the right pattern?
