I shielded my head with my arms and wanted to rush over. Unfortunately, more birds ca at as if they knew what Yan Yuan was thinking. Crowding , the birds basically ford a net, blocking my way.
There was no chance of getting to Yan Yuan. The latter grabbed Zhu Zhonglings head while having a similar expression to what Xu Zifeng had before. It was a smile that felt sad and joyous at the sa ti. The cold blade sliced across Zhu Zhonglings neck, and blood started flowing out.
Bang! Out of nowhere, the door was kicked open, accompanied by a single gunshot. Yan Yuan froze while blood left his face. He looked down after a while and fixed his gaze on the gunshot wound in his chest. At the sa ti, the birds left and surrounded Yan Yuan.
Covered in blood, I looked up and saw Shen Shiyans stern face. He aid his gun at Yan Yuan as he walked into the living room. Following closely behind him was Tan Jiao.
Tan Jiao ran to my side and asked worriedly, Are you alright? Are you injured?
I held her hand and said, Im fine. These are just superficial wounds.
The police rushed in and helped the Zhu family mbers. Shen Shiyan holstered his gun and quickly placed Yan Yuan in handcuffs before helping him up. Call the ambulance imdiately! He doesnt look too good!
Flapping their wings, the flock of birds exited from the window, leaving the room within seconds. However, they did not leave the residence imdiately. Instead, they circled above the house while letting out terrifying calls.
All of the policen stood rooted as they witnessed this eerie scene while Shen Shiyan raised his gaze to the two of us.
Laying there in Shen Shiyans arms, Yan Yuan, or more accurately, the real Zhu Shuyun, had a ghostly pale face with his eyes half shut.
Tan Jiao and I walked over to him.
Zhu Shuyun looked at us with his dying gaze, his face looking particularly pale.
Out of nowhere, his eyes widened, and a layer of sweat covered his forehead as if he had seen sothing extrely horrifying. He pointed his hand at us and said, You how could this be?
Before he could say anything more, those fixated eyes of his lost their luster. Those lifeless eyes stayed fixed on us while his hand gradually lowered to the ground.
I ignored the police, sprung toward Zhu Shuyun, and asked while holding his hand, What do you want to say? What did you recall?
His eyes only had horror in them, as though he could not hear what I asked. Soon, his body trembled greatly, convulsing unnaturally. In the end, after a final jolt, his eyes rolled back, and he laid there motionless.
Everyone in the room looked at each other, unsure about exactly what had happened. The police pulled back, and I slowly got up. Tan Jiao ca into my arms and asked with a quivering voice, Is he dead? What happened to him? What caused him to beco so terrified?
I fell into a brief silence before saying, Perhaps his ntal state was unstable before he died. Maybe what he saw was not us but his inner fears.
Tan Jiao looked slightly relaxed when she heard this, but she still appeared to have so lingering fears. Oh
It seed that everything had co to an end.
The strange birds had left the area, while the gravely injured Zhu family mbers were saved. Tan Jiao and I, with the help of a policeman, walked out of the Zhu residence. The sky was already dark, with the police lights illuminating the surrounding area with red and blue. I looked back and saw the already motionless Zhu Shuyun lying on the floor. His horror-filled eyes were still wide open. Tan Jiao wanted to look back as well, but I pressed gently on her head, not allowing her to look back.
It was not until a long ti later that we finally found out the real reason why Zhu Shuyun was frightened before his death.
In truth, so of the people who ca down from that ship, only at the mont of death, the mont when ti stopped or when they fell into eternity, would rember everything that had happened on that ship.
This was the sa for Tan Jiao and I.
