Thinking of this, He Fei couldn't help but be horrified. This is also what college students fear most deep down in their hearts at the moment. In his opinion, the curse is very likely to strengthen Mary Xiao and strengthen the strength of Nu Qi to a certain extent. After all, he originally watched " When "Dead Silence", He Fei didn't find that the female locust had the ability to slow down people's movements. At first, he was a little happy that he had mastered the opponent's ability. He never thought that reality would slap him in the face so quickly. After experiencing it, After this incident, He Fei suddenly realized that his fear of female hawks had reached a new level. Yes, he knew how to think from others' perspective. He could fully imagine that if the target of the female hawk's attack was him, then he would What to do?
what to do?
Unfortunately, there is no answer or solution. After much thinking, I came to the conclusion that there is no solution. I have no means to deal with it!
When encountering a wolf, he must rely on props to save his life, but the problem is that the delay ability of the female wolf has completely shattered the only means of resistance for himself and the other executors. The logic is very simple. According to the rules of the curse, most props cannot be exposed to it at will. The outside world can only be used when one is in danger. This is what everyone does in daily tasks. I never thought...
I never thought that a special locust would appear now, a ferocious female locust with extremely weird abilities that could make a person's movements instantly delayed and as slow as a turtle. Hey, in a critical moment, the executor can't even run, let alone use props!
The best example is himself. Just now, he has personally experienced the heavy feeling of despair that no matter how hard you try, you can't speed up even half a minute. It's so slow that it's extremely slow, so slow that you can't even get out the exorcism tools. Fortunately, the target It wasn't me, otherwise I would have been lying dead on the spot like Lisa for a long time.
"The executor, He Fei, privately did something that had nothing to do with the assigned identity, and lacked logical reasons. He has violated the mission rules. The violation level is medium, and 3 survival points have been deducted!"
While he was thinking, a cold voice came to his mind, announcing on the spot that points were deducted for violating the rules. As for the punishment notice, He Fei expected this. After all, he originally came here with the intention of violating the rules, so it is reasonable for him to be deducted points now. As it should be, the only slightly surprising thing is...
Unexpectedly, the curse actually judged his behavior as a moderate violation, and the amount of deductions was more than what he had initially checked. The last time he deducted 1 point for a minor violation, this time he actually deducted 3 points!
It seems that Curse does have a strict framework on how to deduct points.
Boom!
Lightning flashed outside the window and bursts of thunder brought He Fei back to reality from his thoughts. He suddenly came back to his senses and looked around the scene. He trembled for a while, then took off his coat and got busy. He slowly retreated to the living room while bending over. He used his waist to clean up the traces and wiped the footprints on the ground with the help of his clothes. Yes, he wanted to eliminate all traces of his activities in the room. After all, he knew that Lisa's husband, the protagonist Jamie, would be returning home soon, and the police would also arrive later. Then they arrived. Although the man did not kill himself, it would not be a good thing if the police found his footprints. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the traces must be eliminated no matter what.
Fortunately, I had the impression that I only left some water-stained footprints in the room, no fingerprints, and no hair. The door that was violently kicked open only needed to be wiped and closed again. He Fei moved quickly and only used one In just a few minutes, he finished cleaning up and exited the house, leaving the apartment and disappearing into darkness.
As soon as he got off the stairs, He Fei started running non-stop. He ran farther and farther, and finally disappeared at the end of the street corner, disappearing into the rainy night.
………
Crash.
Thunder and lightning surged in the sky, black clouds shrouded wantonly, and dense raindrops were still washing over the city. Time passed by, and about five minutes after He Fei left the apartment, a private car with its lights flashing in the heavy rain came from the north side of the street. Drive onto Avenue Louise and finally stop below the apartment building.
After parking the car and turning off the engine, a blond young man walked out in the rain. The man was wearing a white shirt and a black coat. He looked handsome from European and American eyes and was about 25 or 26 years old. There is no doubt that the person coming is none other than the absolute leading actor in the original movie "Dead Silence", Jamie.
After closing the car door, Jamie excitedly walked into the apartment building holding a bag of food and a bright red rose.
Food is his favorite snack. This can be ignored. Only roses are of great significance. Just like he often did in the past, he used roses to prove himself and prove that he loves Lisa, and his wife must be waiting at home. Hold yourself.
………
Time, 21:31 at night.
He Fei is currently living in a low-cost rental house in the city. This is where the Curse deliberately arranged his residence after giving him a police identity. The quality of the residence is not the important point. The important point is that it is reasonable and has no loopholes. After all, it only gives him an identity but no residence. It really doesn't make sense, and the existence of temporary residence undoubtedly makes the assigned identity perfect.
After returning to his residence, the first thing He Fei did was to shake off the rainwater and change his coat. He took off all the soaked coats, then took out a clean casual clothes from the closet and put them on. It is worth mentioning that during the process, the young man The movements were very fast, and the expression was a little hasty, as if changing clothes was just to prepare for something in advance. No matter how you look at it, it has nothing to do with the expected sleep.
Because he knew that things were not over, far from over. If nothing unexpected happened, tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.
Jingle Bell!
Coincidentally, He Fei had just finished dressing up when the ringtone rang. The mobile phone that had been placed on the bedside earlier was suddenly released and buzzed with noise. He picked up the mobile phone and looked down. As expected, the caller was familiar. It was him. His immediate boss, Inspector Jim.
After confirming the identity of the other party, He Fei immediately pressed the answer button.
"Hello, sir, I'm He Fei."
"I told you not to call me sir after get off work, um, but it's okay for you to call me that now."
"Huh? What do you mean..."
Realizing that there was something wrong in Detective Jim's words, He Fei asked him knowingly. Sure enough, as soon as the question was uttered, the other party's tone changed: "About an hour ago, the bureau received a report of a murder case on Louis Street. It’s not an apartment, and the investigation work has been assigned to us from above.”
At this point, Detective Jim paused for a moment, and then continued to add: "But you don't need to go to the crime scene. The local forensic doctor has already conducted a preliminary investigation. I have also personally inspected the body. There will be people at the scene to handle it. You can come directly." Just the police station.”
"clear."
Hang up the phone, get dressed again, He Fei opened the door and left the residence. Yes, as mentioned at the beginning, the reason why He Fei was in a hurry and prepared quickly was mainly due to his status as an executor, or someone who has watched movies. It is impossible for him to not know the development of the plot. When Jamie comes home from get off work and discovers that his wife has died tragically, he will cry out in pain and call the police on the spot. At the same time, Jamie, as the reporter, will also be regarded as a key suspect by Detective Jim. , the plot is on track. According to the original plot, Jamie should be undergoing interrogation at the police station and is battling wits with Detective Jim who is in charge of the case.
………
As before, due to the long distance, He Fei waved down a taxi and rushed to the police station. Since a rare murder occurred tonight, the police station at night was not as boring and quiet as before. Except for In addition to the officers on duty who were in a hurry, many innocent police officers who had to work overtime urgently due to the case were also busy and looked unhappy. Seeing this scene, He Fei knew what was going on and walked through the busy hall and turned several corridors. Finally, he came to a place marked with ' He stopped at the door of the investigation room'.
Boom, boom, boom.
"Come in."
Sure enough, as you push the door and enter, the first thing you see is a scene that seems familiar. The room is empty and dim, with a desk in the middle. The only light source in the room comes from the pale desk lamp. With the help of the light, He saw two people sitting on both sides of the wooden table. One of them was naturally Inspector Jim, who had come to work overtime after being notified, and the other looked equally familiar. Even though he had never met him, in fact, he instantly identified the other person just by looking at He Fei. …
Jamie!
It is the protagonist who runs through the entire "Dead Silence" movie, an infatuated man who cares about the death of his beloved wife and ignores the investigation of the truth. .
Of course, acquaintance is acquaintance, and familiarity is familiarity. Due to the limitations of his identity, He Fei does not dare to be upright and polite. Looking carefully, it is obvious that the young protagonist is in a very low mood. Under the illumination of the desk lamp, Jamie is almost in a trance. He spoke for a long time, his deep eyes always filled with confusion.
It seems that his wife's death had a great impact on him, so that he remained sluggish and depressed for a long time.
Seeing the assistant arriving, Inspector Jim, who had been staring at Jamie with suspicious eyes, nodded to He Fei in front of the door, and He Fei nodded in understanding. He did not speak, but just raised his feet and sat next to him. In this way, Detective Jim and I both observed the young man opposite.
The cross-examination continued. The reason why it was a cross-examination rather than an interrogation was because neither the police nor Inspector Jim himself found Jamie's fingerprints from the crime scene or autopsy examination. There were no fingerprints, no hair, no traces. In addition, Jamie also has a clear alibi, so strictly speaking Detective Jim cannot detain him, nor can he interrogate him. In this case, Jamie can only be questioned and investigated according to legal procedures.
Returning to the topic, he raised his head and glanced at Jamie who was still in a daze across from him. Inspector Jim was not in a hurry, but picked up the burger on the table and took a bite. This scene can be called a classic, and it also proves that middle-aged people are quite capable. Because of his dedication, he was so dedicated that he couldn't even bother to eat dinner for a while because he was busy with the case. Fortunately, the temptation of food was quite temporary. After chewing and swallowing the burger, the man got up and left his seat and started busy. First he took off his windbreaker and hung it in the corner, then After getting down and dressed in a suit, he quietly turned around and looked at Jamie. He pointed at Jamie and asked in a surprised tone: "Do you know what's going on? Do you know where you went wrong?"
The strange question broke the silence and brought the blond young man back to reality. Even so, the actual effect was quite different. Faced with the question, perhaps he did not understand what the other party meant. Jamie frowned slightly and showed confusion. Seeing this , Detective Jim did not explain. Instead, under the young man's increasingly astonished gaze, he started to do something else again. He reached into his pocket, took out the electric razor he always carried with him, and began to rub his chin habitually, listening. The machine buzzed, and until the stubble disappeared and became smooth again, the man nodded with satisfaction and took back the tool, and then reminded him with a grin in a casual tone: "Yes, the rose, that's the rose. Young man, I want to tell you one thing. Every time When I see someone buying roses for their wife and it happens to be a rainy day, I know that’s an alibi.”
If these words have any meaning, let’s not talk about the deeper suspicion of Jamie opposite him. Anyway, He Fei understood the meaning instantly. Of course, even if he understood, he would not explain. After all, he is just an assistant. For now, It's not suitable for him to speak, not to mention that he also knows that even if he doesn't say or do anything, the story will still develop according to the original movie, and the only thing he has to do at the moment is to wait and see and wait for things to develop.
As for Jamie…
The young man was no longer silent and sluggish. Faced with Detective Jim's pressing step by step, Jamie, who was almost forced into a blind corner, finally asked suspiciously: "What? Alibi?"
It was like a charade, a competition between the two parties. Seeing that the young man was still bewildered, Inspector Jim narrowed his eyes slightly. Not only did he not explain in detail, but he then asked with even greater surprise and curiosity: "What did you say? Do you know you?" What are you talking about? Don’t you know this matter much more clearly than I do? "
Got it, totally got it!
Jamie, who was completely awakened from his doubts, finally understood what the other party meant, and it turned out that the other party actually doubted him!
Thinking of this, Jamie couldn't help feeling angry, but he still deliberately asked in a calm tone: "Why? Why do I need an alibi?"
In fact, everyone who sees this can clearly detect that the blond young man is already angry. Unfortunately, this move is completely useless, because Detective Jim has already subconsciously judged Jamie as a key suspect. No matter how angry Jamie is, it will not change the status quo. , his rhetorical self-defense not only failed to persuade the other party, but was regarded as a deliberate quibble by Detective Jim. In response to the criminal's quibbles, Detective Jim tightened his suit and tie and strode back to his seat. Until then, The man finally stopped acting and showed his seriousness. He just stared at Jamie and finally said something, a logical statement full of warning:
"Regarding the death of your wife, the prosecutor will continue to investigate, and your fingerprints will be further collected. The preliminary results are that there are no signs of forced entry into the home, and you are the last person to see your wife. Young man, you are in trouble. Quite a few, you have a lot to deal with.”
Jamie stared back without fear. After staring back, he asked decisively without thinking: "Do you think I killed my wife?"
It can be seen at a glance that Jamie's suspicion of Inspector Jim is becoming more and more intolerable. Because of this, Jamie, who does not want to continue to maintain the mystery, directly points out what the other party means. He becomes angry and points it out directly, but unfortunately Inspector Jim ignores it. , but the conversation changed and he lost his caution, and continued to tease in his implicitly mocking tone: "No, I don't think you killed your wife, I was just thinking about the lawyer you will hire in the future. I think your The lawyer must find ways to find solid evidence to eliminate suspicion for you."
(Fake squid!)
Everyone always has a limit to their tolerance. The same is true for others, and the same is true for Jamie. Faced with the man's frequent teasing, he cursed in his heart, and Jamie argued: "Suspicion? If you want to talk about suspicion, why don't you check it first and leave it to me?" That package at home?”
"Oh, yes, the package, let me take a look..."
Seeing the other party raising a new question, Inspector Jim lowered his head and rummaged around with a seemingly serious expression. He randomly flipped through the files on the table and stated while flipping through them: "You received an unmarked anonymous package. The time was in Lisa. Not long before he was killed?”
Jamie hurriedly added: "Yes! There is a puppet in the package, a wooden puppet used for puppet performances."
Obviously, from Jamie's words, we can find that the young man has already had suspicions like in the original movie. He suspects that his wife's death is related to the puppet named Billy. There is no denying that Jamie's suspicion is correct. However, unfortunately, Inspector Jim I don't think so. After just a few glances, the middle-aged man came up with a paragraph that made Jamie feel speechless and helpless for a moment: "The Mysterious Toy Department is on the right side of the corridor on the second floor. We are the Crime Department. Unless you can find out There is tangible evidence that your wife’s death is related to the doll, otherwise I would not have made it the focus of the investigation, at least I personally cannot see the connection.”
After that, Detective Jim stared at the opposite side with questioning eyes, looking at Jamie who was obviously suspicious of the puppet but didn't know how to answer. Jamie fell into silence, with a hesitant and tangled expression. After a long time, the young man seemed to make up his mind. He took a long breath with determination, and finally revealed the truth about why he doubted the puppets: "There is a saying in my hometown that ventriloquism puppets are a bad omen. Some people believe that such puppets will bring death to the living people around them. .”
As mentioned above, Jamie narrated the truth, directly connecting the puppet with the legend of his hometown, and also paving the way for him to return to his hometown soon to explore the truth. Of course, regardless of whether it is right or wrong, Jamie's suspicion is just His personal opinion, and personal opinion never represents the mainstream, nor does it mean that Inspector Jim will think so. As expected, as soon as Jamie finished speaking, the man's expression changed, he lowered his head and chatted twice, and then shrugged his shoulders in helplessness. He spread his hands and said: "Okay, listen Jamie, listen carefully, first of all, I want to tell you that I am a police detective. I have handled many murder cases and arrested many suspects, but I have never arrested a dummy. "
There was a sudden pause when he said this, then he changed the subject and raised his eyebrows silently: "But, I have arrested several husbands.".
The atmosphere in the room has cooled down, and anger is boiling in his heart.
At this moment, Inspector Jim looked at each other with undisguised suspicion and Jamie's angry gaze. The scene returned to silence. Until half a minute passed, the unbearable Jamie finally stood up angrily. He first leaned forward. Staring at each other, he asked excitedly and loudly: "Don't you find it strange? Lisa was killed as soon as the package arrived, and she died so miserably! Her tongue was also missing! Don't you really find it strange?"
Detective Jim shook his head and responded: "No, I don't think it's that strange. I have seen all kinds of weird and bloody cases for many years. Even if your wife died in a horrific way, strictly speaking, it still doesn't matter to me." What, at best it’s just a perverted murder.”
Seeing that Detective Jim was unmoved, Jamie tried his best to restrain his emotions and asked instead: "Okay, what do you want to do? Arrest me?"
There is no doubt that after some exchanges, the blond young man recognized the reality and thought that his conversation with Inspector Jim had lost its meaning. After all, there is a saying that is good when you talk to someone who never believes in you and you want the other person to believe it. The whole thing was stupid. As the saying goes, it's too much to talk without speculation. At this moment, Jamie was completely angry. He didn't plan to continue the conversation. Instead, he interrupted the topic and pointed it out directly to Ming, saying that I don't want to talk nonsense with you. You What can you do to me! ?
How about it?
He Fei was quite impressed by this. He had the impression that Jamie was not arrested. Detective Jim, who lacked evidence in the movie, finally let Jamie leave the police station. Because of this, the college student did not hesitate after hearing what Jamie said. Nervous, I really thought Inspector Jim would let Jamie go as in the original plot, but then...
Unexpectedly, in the face of a direct showdown with Jamie, Inspector Jim's answer not only made the blond young man's instinct freeze, but even He Fei, who was observing silently next to him, was subconsciously shocked!
"Yes, Mr. Jamie, although we have not yet found conclusive evidence to prove your guilt and arrest you, I can still detain you for 24 hours according to the law, which means you must wait until this time tomorrow before you can leave."
He never expected that Inspector Jim here would be even more tempered than in the original movie, and would actually do such harming things to others. Hearing this, He Fei was surprised and became nervous. The reason is very simple. He saved Lisa not long ago. After the failure, He Fei has been upset and worried, and is afraid of Jamie's upcoming trip to Ravenel to find the truth. He Fei hopes that Detective Jim will detain Jamie and even wishes that he would be arrested and imprisoned. It's not that He Fei has any grudge against Jamie, but because this way Jamie will not be able to go to Ravenel. As long as he is caught and imprisoned, not only will Jamie's life be saved, but the executor will also be relieved of a heavy burden. After all, the female locust cannot attack Jamie who is outside the town. As long as Jamie does not die, the executor does not need to worry about the punishment of obliteration, but the problem is...
The question is, if the detention is only for one day, then it will not mean much. In my impression, the whole movie only lasts for 3 days, which means that all the plots during the period take place within 3 days. What does this mean? This means that being detained for one day cannot change the status quo. This will not stop Jamie. What should happen one day later will still happen. On the contrary, Inspector Jim’s move is very likely to disrupt the plot and disrupt the executor’s advance of the plot. Foreknowledge!
