"So... this is why Liu Rui ended up being Ouyang Kang’s girlfriend..."
Qi Nian mumbled to herself.
However, the scene was not over yet.
After Ouyang Kang opened the car door and rescued Liu Anzhi, he did not imdiately call or shout for help. Instead, he seed to be talking about sothing with him.
"What are they talking about?" Qi Nian tried hard to read their lips, but as the scene faded into the distance, it beca exceptionally blurry and hard to decipher.
Faced with this situation, Bai Yanliang was also at a loss.
However, to him, it didn’t matter anymore what those two were saying.
The entire sequence of events was already clear and straightforward; even the fierce ghost that had not yet appeared but had been showcasing abnormal powers through the script, Bai Yanliang had managed to grasp so clues.
"I don’t understand... why did Liu Anzhi have to ntion money..." Qi Nian looked at Bai Yanliang puzzled, "Whether it was Zhan Yunhong or Lin Dayou, they were all actually ready to rescue him, why did he...?"
Bai Yanliang stayed silent for a mont; to be honest, he didn’t quite understand either.
Bai Yanliang did not have extensive life experience, and his social circles were not complex. The only explanation he could think of was that Liu Anzhi had beco accustod to a certain type of pattern.
I give you money—you do things for .
He did not believe in rules, morality, humanity, or the law...
In decades of Liu Anzhi’s life, he had always experienced and believed in simple and brutal "transactions."
However, he absolutely should not have tested human nature with money at such a critical mont.
Because of that "transaction," he was at a disadvantage from the start.
He despised humanity, so humanity despised him in return.
"Let’s go." Bai Yanliang stood up and said.
"Huh?" Qi Nian was first startled; she closed the video and ca to her senses when Bai Yanliang had already walked far ahead.
She hurriedly caught up to him.
"What’s going on exactly? I still... don’t quite understand..."
As Bai Yanliang walked, he said, "To put it simply, it’s a tragedy."
"..." Qi Nian glared at him, exasperated, "I know..."
"The cause of the incident was Liu Anzhi’s car suddenly losing control on his way to Sanbai Town, resulting in an accident."
"Zhan Yunhong, Lin Dayou, and Ouyang Kang appeared one after another, ready to help him."
"But he forgot one thing, in that kind of situation, bringing up money was simply trampling on the goodwill of others. For so extre individuals, it could even provoke anger and an aversion to wealth," Bai Yanliang explained.
"Like Lin Dayou?" Qi Nian inquired.
"Yes, his introduction as a businessman in the timber trade should not be a lie, but I think that was his forr job." Bai Yanliang’s voice was calm, "Lin Dayou went bankrupt. He needed a sum of money, whether to keep things going or to make a coback, he couldn’t do without it."
"The thirty million Liu Anzhi ntioned sounded like both showing off and temptation to him."
"Later, due to the delayed rescue, Liu Anzhi died heavily injured on the road. The police closed the case as a traffic accident, but Liu Rui held a bitter grudge in her heart."
"She published the content of the villa events on various dia, using the so-called three million as bait to attract the three, reminding them of the thirty million."
"Liu Anzhi said before his death that the clue to the thirty million was on him, and those three took the pendant, the watch, and the ring. They might not know each other, but they knew of each other’s existence."
As he spoke, Bai Yanliang suddenly stopped and looked out the window.
"Oh no."
"What is it?" Qi Nian also looked out the window, but apart from the terrifyingly heavy rain, there seed to be nothing unusual outside.
"Liu Rui’s goal is to avenge her father. Those three who didn’t save her father are all going to face her revenge. I’ve been wondering why this ti the fierce ghost is killing using the format of a horror script. Until just now, I suddenly thought Liu Anzhi died on his way to film in Sanbai Town. Liu Rui is likely modifying Liu Anzhi’s script to fulfill her father’s dying wish, intending to film a real horror movie with those three as the cast, to commorate Liu Anzhi."
Bai Yanliang retracted his gaze and quickened his pace, "Liu Rui is human and doesn’t possess superpowers, so she must have so kind of connection with the fierce ghost. This connection allows her to partially turn the script into reality."
"In other words, we are in a real movie, and sudden weather changes in movies generally an the plot is about to take a dramatic turn."
Bai Yanliang looked at Qi Nian, "You’ve watched a lot of horror movies; generally in horror movies, what does a dramatic plot twist imply?"
Qi Nian’s face also changed, "The fierce ghost shows its true form and starts killing... heading towards a bad ending, and the movie ends..."
"Exactly..." Bai Yanliang’s voice turned slightly somber, "That’s our current predicant."
"By the way!" Qi Nian’s eyes suddenly lit up, "Liu Ruonan didn’t appear in the earlier dashcam footage! She’s unrelated to this incident, could she really be the ghost? Moreover, she appears in both the first and second act scripts, which is really odd..."
"Her?" Bai Yanliang shook his head, "No, it’s not her; she’s human. I’ve t her before."
"Huh?" Qi Nian was astonished, "You’ve... t Liu Ruonan? In the real world?"
"In theory, I should recognize her imdiately, but the difference in her aura from the ti we first t was so great that I didn’t recognize her."
"Then... does that an she’s also soone who entered the past to complete a mission..."
"No." Bai Yanliang denied it without hesitation, "She’s completely different from us."
A chill ran through Qi Nian’s heart. She had a feeling that Bai Yanliang’s words carried another implication.
But... in that case, what exactly is Liu Ruonan’s identity?
"Let’s set her aside for now and deal with the current situation. If my guess is correct, Liu Rui might have already begun her slaughter spree."
...
Bai Yanliang’s guess was not wrong.
In the restaurant, after Wang Rui was pressed to hang her head down, the atmosphere imdiately beca bizarre.
Song Que and Xu Zhifei, familiar with this feeling, instantly realized sothing was wrong and imdiately turned to flee the restaurant.
But Ouyang Kang and Zhan Yunhong looked at each other, utterly clueless about what was happening.
Particularly Ouyang Kang, who did not want to believe that Wang Rui held no feelings for him and was rely with him for other purposes.
"Xiao Rui, answer ! Xiao Rui..."
Ouyang Kang grabbed Wang Rui by the shoulders, shaking her as he shouted.
Wang Rui did not answer, but Ouyang Kang suddenly noticed sothing unnatural around him.
Very soon, Ouyang Kang understood what seed unnatural.
It wasn’t anything around, but "Wang Rui" who was gradually growing taller...
Ouyang Kang recoiled in terror, and Zhan Yunhong also felt his scalp prickling.
In front of them, a three-ter-tall "Wang Rui" slowly raised her head.
Her pupils were completely white, and cracks quietly appeared on her forehead, from which densely packed, ghastly white eyeballs erged under Ouyang Kang and Zhan Yunhong’s horrified gazes...
Ouyang Kang collapsed onto the ground in fear, a wet spot spreading between his legs.
And the "Wang Rui" continued to step closer and closer to him...
