I’m Flirting with a Man in the Supernatural World - Chapter 85
bad mood? A flash of inspiration flashed in Chu Huai’s mind, and he couldn’t wait to look down.
The next one is Envy, the Engine of Progress, and the next one is Eugenie Grandet…
Chu Huai browsed, thoughtful.
Including the previous “Paradise Lost”, there are a total of seven books in this column of the bookshelf.
The first “Paradise Lost” can allude to lewdness, representing Xia Yu. If understood in this way, the remaining six books coincide with the remaining six actors.
The second book “Don’t Let Bad Moods Control You” refers to rage.
Zhang Yan is impulsive, irritable, irritable and brainless, and the painting in front of his room also proves this. In the painting is a man with blushing face and bristling hair.
According to the news on TV, Zhang Yan should die second after the concubine died, and he happened to correspond to the second book, that is to say… the order of the books is most likely the order of death of the actors.
Chu Huai’s eyes lit up.
So… “Envy and Enthusiasm Are the Engines of Progress” is envy.
The face of the girl in sailor suit flashed across Chu Huai’s mind. She is the third.
“Eugenie Grandet” is miserly. Who is mean?
Chu Huai’s heart sank when he thought of the painting on the door of Jin Tianyi’s room.
In the painting, a man holds a gold coin in his hand, which is clearly a symbol of greed.
So Jin Tianyi was the fourth to die?
Fatty fifth is stupidity; Luo Ziyang sixth is laziness.
And myself…
Chu Huai’s hand rested on the yellowed booklet of “Precautions for the First Time”, and his face turned red and white, a little embarrassed.
It’s not what he thinks…
But the roles of the other six people are more or less sinful, why am I such a ghost?
Chu Huai opened the booklet, glanced hastily, then stuffed it back silently, with complicated emotions.
He was a little relieved, if his guess was correct, he would not have to worry about the safety of Jin Tianyi and Luo Ziyang for the time being, since Jin Tianyi still had Zhang Yan and the girl in sailor suit standing in front of him.
He felt that his idea was a bit immoral, and he sighed helplessly.
Chu Huai was about to go down to tell everyone what he had discovered, but Luo Ziyang hurried in and dragged him away.
He looked terrified and out of breath: “Zhang Yan, he…he’s dead, go down and have a look!”
Chu Huai was surprised. Before he went to search each room, he specially took care of the other residents and told them to get together. Under the eyes of everyone, Zhang Yan… died?
When Chu Huai walked to the door, he suddenly heard a slight sound in the direction of the bookshelf, stopped abruptly, and looked back.
It turned out to be just a book on the shelf.
Luo Ziyang was anxious: “What’s wrong?”
Chu Huai shook his head, secretly thinking that he was making a fuss, and then glanced back, seeing nothing unusual, hurriedly went downstairs.
After he left, a hand as dry as a tree trunk stuck out from behind the bookshelf.
That hand rested on the seven books that Chu Huai had browsed before, and picked up the third “Envy is the Momentum of Progress” and the fourth “Eugenie Grandet” and switched places.
It made several transfers in the next few books.
After finishing the work, the ghost hand waved in the direction of the half-opened door, as if laughing at the stupidity of the residents, being played by it in the palm of its hand, and as if saying goodbye to them.
Those people are not far from death.
…
Rushing to the living room, Chu Huai thought the scene would be bloody, but in fact Zhang Yan just leaned on the sofa with his head tilted, as if he was asleep.
There was no trace of blood or ghosts around, only a small puddle of water from the glass on the coffee table splashed on the table.
The girl in the sailor suit and the fat man were so frightened that they fell to the ground, trembling like a sieve.
Chu Huai kept calm and went to check on Zhang Yan, who was already dead.
Jin Tianyi also rushed over, exchanged a glance with Chu Huai, instantly understood what happened, and asked rationally, “Did you see a ghost?”
Luo Ziyang was still calm, and immediately shook his head in confirmation.
Chu Huai pulled up the two people on the ground, and when they saw Chu Huai and Jin Tianyi, some light finally appeared in their slack pupils.
The fat man hesitated for a while, but still said, “I think he was probably killed by a ghost.”
Chu Huai frowned, and when he finished, the girl in the sailor suit said for him: “He, he seems to have a heart attack, so… he may die suddenly.”
Chu Huai and Jin Tianyi looked at each other, obviously not believing this statement.
Fatty explained with lingering fear: “We were watching a movie before, and then he suddenly said ‘quick, no, don’t, stop, please, stop’, Di Yu and I thought he was joking about driving, so we didn’t take it seriously. What happened, then, and then…”
The fat man stammered, and Luo Ziyang answered impatiently: “Then he started covering his head and howling, hitting the coffee table with his head like crazy, panting heavily while covering his chest, his face turned red from holding back, we were terrified, I thought he was ill and pressed him immediately, but he suddenly leaned against the back of the sofa, convulsed twice and died…”
Chu Huai looked at the other two present, and they all nodded sharply, approving Luo Ziyang’s words.
Jin Tianyi suddenly said: “You said, were you watching a movie just now?”
Luo Ziyang was taken aback: “Yes!”
Inspired by this, Chu Huai went along with the flow and pretended to curse angrily: “You still have the heart to watch movies now?!”
“We also want to ease the atmosphere and comfort Zhang Yan…” Luo Ziyang reacted very quickly this time, making sophistry, and nodded towards Chu Huai and Jin Tianyi indiscriminately.
It shows that they did this after receiving the prompt from the blood character main line.
Luo Ziyang felt something was wrong when he received the prompt from the main thread just now, and Chu Huai and Jin Tianyi were not there, so he was about to find an excuse to call someone down when something happened to Zhang Yan.
“Who closed the movie?” Chu Huai asked.
The screen behind it was dark.
“Closed?” Fatty couldn’t believe it, turned his head quickly, and murmured subconsciously, “Impossible, what happened to this kind of thing, we don’t have time to turn off the movie…”
“We’ve only watched it for about ten minutes, and it’s impossible to automatically exit after the playback…”
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.
Luo Ziyang spoke out the aspirations of everyone: “Is it a problem with the movie?”
Jin Tianyi was silent, stepped forward swiftly, turned on the screen again, found the movie that was playing before, and was about to play it, but was stopped by the fat man: “If there is really a problem with the movie, then, then It’s better not to let it go, Zhang and Zhang Yan are dead, we have to watch again, in case something happens…”
The fat man’s legs were shaking. He didn’t want to die like Zhang Yan!
The girl in the sailor suit also nodded, like a frightened bird.
Jin Tianyi removed the fat man’s hand in a gentlemanly way: “Well, let me see, and those who are afraid will avoid it.”
Chu Huai and Luo Ziyang stayed without any taboos.
They have their own considerations. The copy of the apartment is not without rules to follow. Generally speaking, after the ghost kills a person, the tasker will have a short safe time. Zhang Yangang died less than five minutes ago, and the safe time must have passed.
Chu Huai glanced at his watch, Zhang Yan died around nine o’clock.
Xia Yu died at half past five, three and a half hours later. Then in the next two hours, they should not be in danger for the time being.
In addition, Chu Huai learned the correct order of death, and the girl in sailor suit died next, so the three of them are absolutely safe for the time being.
While Chu Huai was thinking, the movie had already started playing. The three of them briefly read the first twenty minutes and found nothing unusual.
Jin Tianyi frowned deeply.
This is an ancient war film about the friction and war between two small countries.
Chu Huai said: “Do it again, 0.5 times the speed.”
“Okay.” Jin Tianyi said.
The second time, when Chu Huai saw the soldiers on the screen start beating the drums, he suddenly said: “Stop!”
The pause point is seven minutes and eight seconds.
Luo Ziyang couldn’t see Mingtang: “Is there a problem?”
Jin Tianyi signaled him to keep quiet, and pressed the play button again.
The sound of the “dong dong dong” drum sounded, hitting the hearts of the three of them one after another.
Chu Huai tapped his hands on the seam of his trousers.
At the end of this paragraph, Chu Huai said to Jin Tianyi: “Do it again, this time at normal speed.”
The drum sounded again, and this time Chu Huai’s hand touched his heart.
Luo Ziyang didn’t know why.
Chu Huai closed his eyes slightly and listened quietly. Sure enough, his heartbeat completely overlapped with the drumbeat at the beginning.
The drum became faster and faster, Chu Huai’s breathing became rapid and heavy, the symptoms of chest tightness and chest pain began to appear, and cold sweat slid down his forehead.
He was a little bewildered.
Jin Tianyi saw that something was wrong with him, so he immediately dropped the remote control and rushed over to shake him awake, his brows were filled with worry.
Chu Huai reluctantly smiled at him, indicating that he was fine, his lips were still pale, as if he was exhausted.
After a while, he finally said, “Zhang Yan died from the sound of the drum.”
Chu Huai: “Zhang Yan represents rage, and one of the symptoms of anger is tachycardia…”
Jin Tianyi poured him a glass of warm water, and continued: “At first, the sound of the drum matched the beating of the heart. Later, the faster the sound of the drum, the faster the beating of the heart. When Zhang Yan said ‘stop’, he was actually calling The drums stopped, but no one realized it. His heart was overwhelmed in a very short time, which directly led to his death, so in your opinion, he died of a sudden heart attack.”
Luo Ziyang shuddered, his back was covered with cold sweat.
If it weren’t for Chu Huai and Jin Tianyi, they wouldn’t even know how people died, and they wouldn’t even understand death.
The drum was still ringing on the screen, and a blood-red heart seemed to be beating violently before Luo Ziyang’s eyes.
Chu Huai casually glanced at the screen, suddenly something crawled up from the bottom of the screen, Luo Ziyang also saw it, and immediately hid behind Jin Tianyi.
The black hair continued to spread around on the big screen, and a pale face gradually occupied the entire screen.
There were no eyes in that face.
Grimace showed a weird but meaningful smile at the three of them.
With a “click”, the electricity in the villa tripped, and the room fell into complete darkness for an instant.
The terrifying image of the grimace still lingered in Luo Ziyang’s mind, and his voice couldn’t help trembling: “It won’t crawl out of the screen…”
Jin Tianyi knew that nothing would happen, but he couldn’t see Chu Huai suddenly, and he still felt palpitations.
Chu Huai was trying to find the other two in the dark, and a hand reached out to him. The hand was slender and well-defined.
Chu Huai recognized Jin Tianyi’s hand, blushed a little, silently put both hands behind his back, and looked away.
“Give it to me.” In the darkness, Jin Tianyi’s voice was deep and sweet
Luo Ziyang thought he was talking to him, but was confused: “What for you?”
Jin Tianyi hooked his fingertips inward, as if urging him.
Chu Huai’s fingertips also moved inexplicably, he hesitated, and stretched his hand forward quietly, a little embarrassed, just about to put it down as if nothing had happened, but Jin Tianyi quickly held it.
Chu Huai was startled, and just about to withdraw his hand, Jin Tianyi held it firmly and chuckled.
Luo Ziyang: “Boss, are you still in the mood to laugh?”
Jin Tianyi: “It’s none of your business.”
