The first thing that caught his eye were two half-length simple portraits of characters. He knew the portrait on the right. It was the doll named Billy. However, he had never seen the portrait on the left. He was bent over. Looking closer, he saw that the other person was a woman, an elderly woman. Since the portrait was drawn with simple brushes and without coloring, no matter how careful he was, he could only roughly make out the other person's appearance, as just said. , it is admitted that nothing can be seen from the portrait alone, but the text message located in the middle of the portrait directly gave Jamie the answer, a traceable clue answer:
Mary Shaw and Billy in Ravenel.
Staring at the text in front of him, Jamie, who had long suspected that his wife's death was related to the legend in his hometown, couldn't sit still. He subconsciously turned his head, first glanced at the puppet Billy who was placed on the chair by someone who didn't know who, and then said nothing. He stood up and left, grabbing the doll and running towards the door, full of anger and planning to leave, but then...
Jamie failed. Before he could take a few steps, his arm was grabbed by someone and grabbed by a hand that suddenly stretched out from beside him. At the same time, a plain voice followed him:
"I advise you not to go to Ravenel."
Yes, the person who grabbed Jamie and spoke to him was none other than Zhao Ping, who came back with him last night. Since Zhao Ping is a lawyer and the protagonist’s friend, when he tried to get Jamie out of the police station, the glasses man He drove him back home. Originally, he wanted to take Jamie to relax and enlighten him. Unexpectedly, the other party strongly demanded to go home first. Seeing this, Zhao Ping had no choice. It was not that he didn't want to insist, but that He knew the rules clearly and knew clearly that the executor could never forcibly stop the protagonist Jamie from doing anything. Violators would be obliterated, so he had no choice but to send Jamie back home according to his request. However, that morning, Zhao Ping came to visit again. When watching the movie, the first thing that caught our eyes was that Jamie was rummaging through the cabinets and looking around and found the wooden box of the doll. Then he picked up the doll and tried to leave as shown in the movie. As for where to go? The answer is self-evident.
As time passed and the night passed, the thing that the bespectacled man was most worried about finally happened. Jamie, who had a strong obsession with his wife's death, finally found clues from the wooden box like the original movie, and found the link Ravenel. My terrible clue!
Seeing that the other party was about to leave, out of instinct, Zhao Ping hurriedly reached out and pulled to stop the other party.
Seeing his friends blocking him, how could Jamie, who was obsessed with finding the truth, agree? His emotions became aroused. He first shook off the other person's pull, then turned around and looked at the other person with an excited expression. While staring at the man with glasses, he asked with some fierce words: "Don't go to Ravenel? Why? Why can't I go to Ravenel?" El? I love Lisa! She was my wife, and now Lisa died inexplicably like this! As a husband, is it wrong for me to investigate the cause of death? Those police investigators don’t believe me, is it possible that even you don’t? Do you believe me? Zhao Ping, are you still my friend like this?"
His brows were furrowed, and he suddenly changed into the Chinese character "Chuan". At this moment, Zhao Ping felt a feeling deep in his heart, an urge to knock Jamie out immediately and then lock him up! To be honest, if it were in the past, he might have done this a long time ago. After all, Zhao Ping has never been merciful to the characters in the plot. However, unfortunately, this time is different. This time is different. This time the curse has restricted himself with rules. He can't forcefully stop Jamie with violence, otherwise he will be cursed and killed on the spot. Not only that, he can't tell the other party the truth about the existence of worms in the town. After all, with his current status, it is impossible to know the direction of the plot, and James Mi is the protagonist again. Once the news is leaked to him, what awaits him will undoubtedly be a serious violation and a large amount of survival points will be deducted!
then……
The man held back, held back his violent impulse, held back telling the truth, suppressed his anger and calmed down his mood, and then responded as seriously as possible in a calm tone: "Jamie, I have never doubted you, and I have always believed in Li Sha’s death has nothing to do with you, but you really can’t go to Ravenel!”
………
Perhaps it was the bespectacled man's sincere tone that caught Jamie's attention. The blond young man calmed down a little and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Why?"
Of course, Zhao Ping couldn't give a reasonable explanation, so after a brief thought, the man quickly made up a reason, a reason that could prevent Jamie from going to the town and avoid the rules to some extent:
"I share your suspicion that Lisa's death may be related to the legend in your hometown. Suspicion is on one side, but have you ever thought about another thing, which is why your father sent you out of the town so early? Have we had a bad relationship with you all these years?"
As mentioned above, Zhao Ping's words were made after a lot of thought. It is almost the only reason that can be used to dissuade Jamie without violating the rules. After all, he has watched the original movie and knows that Jamie has a bad relationship with his father. , this matter involves a forbidden area of the rules. Other executors may not be able to disclose their identities due to their identities, but only he can say that the reason comes from his identity as Jamie’s friend. Since he is a friend, it is undoubtedly natural to know the other person’s family situation. That's right, he was already familiar with the plot of "Dead Silence" and wanted to use the other party's father as an entry point to stop Jamie!
Sure enough, just as the bespectacled man expected, no sound came out of his mind as the above words came out of his mouth, and the curse was not judged to be a violation.
"Eh? My father? What do you mean by that? What does Lisa's death have to do with my father?"
"It does matter. This is related to my inference. I suggest that we sit down and talk slowly."
Seeing his friend talking about his father, Jamie couldn't help but become confused. So, Jamie, who gradually regained his composure, began to stop going out and sit back on the sofa at Zhao Ping's signal. After the two sat down calmly, they thought for a while, and the man with glasses first helped him. He adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and then reminded Jamie in his doubtful eyes:
"Listen Jamie, the relationship between you and your father is indeed very bad, and you have never returned to your hometown since you left the town many years ago. Although the above is true, have you ever thought carefully about you and your father? Why are there bad relations between them? Or where does it come from?”
Hearing what the other party said, Jamie was stunned for a moment. He stopped questioning and suspended his urgency. He seemed to be trapped in memories. After half a minute, the young man looked disgusted and bowed his head in response. Said: "My father has a bad temper. As the current head of our Orr family, he developed many bad habits, such as smoking, drinking, having fun, and having a bad temper. It was because my mother couldn't stand his domestic violence that she I finally chose to commit suicide! I hated him, so of course I had to choose to leave him. Even after so many years, I tried to forgive him in my heart whenever I was alone. However, every time I thought about my mother's death, I couldn't let go. In the end, I haven’t forgiven him, I still hate that man!”
At this point, Jamie silently raised his head and stared at Zhao Ping and asked: "I have told you these things before, aren't they the truth? Or can my father's actions really be forgiven? And you What do you mean by what you said before?"
Continuous questioning came fiercely, followed by several periods of confusion. Indeed, what Jamie said was all the truth, but unfortunately it was only the truth in his personal eyes. The real situation was far more terrifying than what Jamie saw. Too many, too many horrors!
then……
Facing the doubt, Zhao Ping remained calm. He did not answer immediately, but looked at Jamie's doubtful eyes for a long time until...
"Speak? Why don't you speak? Didn't you just say that I had a hidden agenda when I left the town?"
(Although I can use my status as a friend and lawyer to provide a covert analysis for the other party, this is also my last personal attempt. It is the last attempt to dissuade me at the risk of violating the rules. I will most likely be punished in the process. If I still dissuade him, If I don’t move the other party, then there’s really nothing I can do.)
Listening to the blond young man's aggressive questions, Zhao Ping gave up his hesitation and then opened his mouth to explain as if he had made a major decision: "Well, since you want to hear it, I'll just speak out. Well, through the analysis of the past events you have narrated, I personally think that your father is not necessarily as miserable as you see. In addition, the real reason why your father sent you out of the town early may not be as you imagine. The relationship between father and son is not harmonious, but...but it is very possible that he is protecting you! The purpose is also very likely related to the legend in the town!"
"Executor Zhao Ping privately said 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!"
As soon as the bespectacled man finished speaking, the consequences appeared, and a cold and emotionless reminder suddenly appeared in his mind.
He broke the rules. As expected, he was cursed and judged as a violation on the spot for saying something he shouldn't have said. As the reminder appeared, Zhao Ping, who was about to continue talking, immediately shut up and said no more. There was no doubt that he had just said something that he shouldn't have said. What he said was cursed and judged as a violation of the rules and he was punished by deducting his survival points. If he dared to continue speaking, what awaited him would be continued deduction of points and continuous punishment!
Zhao Ping shut up obediently, but Jamie on the opposite side became more and more curious and confused after hearing the above remarks. He, who was already deeply involved in mysteries, was further shrouded in a large number of mysteries. It is conceivable that although Zhao Ping's words It is not stated clearly and the words are full of hidden hints, but Jamie is not an idiot after all. On the contrary, he is very smart. Indeed, strictly speaking, the performance of the protagonist in the original movie "Dead Silence" has always been remarkable. The young man is thoughtful and good at thinking. , many clues that are difficult for ordinary people to find were discovered one by one during the investigation. During this period, he even successfully evaded the pursuit of the female. If the female was not too powerful and her calculations were too deep, Jamie would not necessarily lose with his wisdom. Not to mention being killed at the end of the film.
"What did you say!? Me, my father is not who I imagined? Everything he did was to protect me? Tell me clearly, why do you understand so? Tell me, tell me what else you know ?”
As expected, although Zhao Ping could only shut up due to the rules, Jamie, who had been aroused by Zhao Ping and was surprised and curious, began to ask questions. Unfortunately, he could not get an answer or further explanation, and It was absolutely impossible for the man with glasses to continue to say anything, at least not when it came to the inside story of the plot. The result was predictable. Faced with Jamie's constant questioning, he could only shake his head and refuse with another reason: "Don't ask. Well, what I said above is actually a thinking habit that I have developed when dealing with lawsuits over the years. The above analysis is not necessarily true, it is just my personal guess. Yes, there is no evidence, it is just a guess. So I can’t answer your questions, but..."
Having said this, Zhao Ping paused for a moment, then gritted his teeth secretly and continued to say something to Jamie: "If, please note, I mean if, if all the guesses I made above are true, then I still suggest Don't act rashly, it's best to follow your father's wishes and not go to Rivenel."
Seeing this, some people must be confused, wondering why the man with glasses insists on stopping Jamie, and even breaks the rules even if he is willing to have his survival points deducted. It feels very strange, and this seems to be inconsistent with Zhao Ping. Personal character, why? how so? The answer is very simple, so simple that you can suddenly realize it with just a little thought. In fact, as a person, Zhao Ping, the reason why he would rather have his survival points deducted but also reveal the secret to Jamie is not how kind he is, let alone how kind he is. He is a good guy, but it's because Jamie's life is tied to him in this supernatural mission!
He Fei once analyzed that the female locust was unable to attack Jamie outside the town. The college student could think of it, so why couldn't Zhao Ping, who was already good at calculations, find it out? In this case, everything that happens next can be easily explained. To put it bluntly, it is to prevent and try every means to prevent it. Not long ago, He Fei was willing to have his life points deducted to rescue Lisa, thereby indirectly preventing Jamie from going to the town. Similarly, the ultimate purpose of everything Zhao Ping is doing is to prevent Jamie from going to the town.
Ravenel can't go, absolutely can't go, it's a place of death, it's hell, whoever goes there will die!
He Fei racked his brains to try to stop, Zhao Ping tried to change by blocking horizontally and vertically, both of them tried their best, but unfortunately...
The inertia of the plot is too huge, so huge that it is irreversible by manpower. It is huge enough to make all the efforts of He Fei and Zhao Ping in vain. Finally, what should happen happened. Regardless of whether it is a police officer, What He Fei and Zhao Ping, who is a lawyer, least want to see happen happens:
Two minutes later, Jamie stood up and left his seat, looked at Zhao Ping solemnly, and then said something to Zhao Ping, who was still sitting on the sofa in front of him, shaking his head slightly apologetically: "I'm sorry, Zhao Ping, as a My friend, I understand that everything you said was for the sake of my personal safety. You have fulfilled the responsibilities of a friend, but..."
At this point, Jamie changed the topic and continued: "But please don't forget that as a friend, I also play the role of a husband. I should also fulfill my responsibilities as a husband. I have no regrets about Lisa's death." , I can’t let go, her death was too strange, so I have to go to Ravenel, I want to ask my father to find out the cause and effect, and I want to find out the truth of the rumors that have been circulating in the town for many years!”
"Why."
Seeing Jamie make the final decision, Zhao Ping felt powerless at this moment. He felt that his whole body was enveloped by a sense of powerlessness. He did not expect that in the end, despite all the obstacles, he could not change the outcome or change Jamie's determination to find out the truth. , sighed helplessly. He knew that he could no longer stop what the other party was going to do next. What should he do? Just like in the original movie, Jamie is about to take action, about to return to his hometown, about to go to the town of Ravenel, which represents death.
(Well, I tried my best anyway, and let others do the rest... huh? This, this is...)
The accident suddenly occurred, and the thoughts stopped abruptly. It was too late to say, but it was too soon. Just when Jamie made the final decision, and just when Zhao Ping was about to give up his dissuasion and just watch, the cold voice appeared again, reappearing in his mind, And it is worth mentioning that this time the person who heard the voice was not only Zhao Ping, but all the executors, all the executors in the mission world!
The message is short, just one sentence:
"Notice, when Jamie sets off for Ravenel Town, all executors must rush to Ravenel Town within 5 hours no matter where they are. After entering, they are not allowed to leave. Those who do not arrive within 5 hours will be directly Erase!”
As mentioned before, this supernatural mission called 'Death of Death' has a strange rule, a special rule that the executor has never experienced before, that is, 'the plot is triggered'! ?
If everyone didn't quite understand what the 'plot triggering' rule was at the beginning, then at this moment, after receiving this string of information notifications, the executor understood it completely.
The picture returns to reality and returns to the living room.
Silence, unparalleled silence. As soon as the information notification ended, Zhao Ping's complexion changed drastically in an instant, and his heart was high. In the end, even the corners of his mouth could not help but twitch. His hope was shattered, and he cursed with a notification. Hope was extinguished for a simple reason. A few seconds ago, after Jamie made the decision to go to Riven El no matter what, the first thought in Zhao Ping's mind was to never go to Riven El!
Yes, although Jamie's life is linked to his own, it is also linked to other executors. What does this mean? This means that other executors besides himself will definitely protect Jamie at all costs. Yes, since there are others desperately protecting him, there is no need for him, Zhao Ping, to accompany Jamie to Ravenel, and his original The plan and indeed is to continue to stay in the city and not want to take any risks.
Despicable, shameless, no limits!
This is the typical logic of a dead Taoist friend but a poor Taoist. It is a despicable trick of letting others fight for their lives while oneself lives in an ignoble way. Anyway, this is not the first time that Zhao Ping has used this trick, so what does it matter if he uses it again now? Big deal? However……
Unfortunately, the idea is beautiful, but the reality has always been cruel and ruthless. The curse notice just now sent the bespectacled man to hell in an instant, completely shattering his last trace of fantasy.
"Zhao Ping, what's wrong with you? Why are you in a daze? Huh? Why are the corners of your mouth twitching constantly?"
"No, it's nothing. By the way, Jamie, as your friend, I can't just let you take risks and investigate alone, so I just made a decision and decided to accompany you to Ravenel."
………
"Notice, when Jamie sets off for Ravenel Town, all executors must rush to Ravenel Town within 5 hours no matter where they are. After entering, they are not allowed to leave. Those who do not arrive within 5 hours will be directly Erase!”
Hearing the sudden message in his mind, He Fei, who was in the police station, couldn't help but became speechless. He immediately confirmed that Zhao Ping's plan to stop him had failed. The man with glasses failed. The other party did not stop Jamie. This means that today Jamie will Drive like the original movie and head to the town of Ravenel that he, Zhao Ping and all the executioners are collectively afraid of! In addition, the curse even forced the executor to go together. In this way, based on He Fei's personal understanding of the supernatural mission, he vaguely guessed the result, a terrifying guess that made him shudder:
When the Executor and the protagonist Jamie all enter Ravenel, the female lynx Mary Shaw who has been waiting for a long time will definitely start a massacre and kill all of Jamie and the Executor. The above speculation is not unreasonable, but is well-founded. , it is even very likely that it was planned in advance by the female locust, and it is a murderous chess game that includes the executor. In this chess game, the female locust is undoubtedly the main force of killing, and the curse plays a role similar to a pusher, using the rules. Successfully pushed the executor into the town, advancing the death chess game carefully constructed by Nu.
Once you find yourself in a small town and are caught in a chess game, all that awaits you is a fight to the death with the female beetle!
Why should we use the word "die to death" to describe it? The key is that there is a sharp contradiction between the female hawk and the executor. Yes, the female hawk knows that Jamie will definitely return to the town, and her ultimate goal must be to kill Jamie, and they, the executors, have no idea. There is no doubt that Jamie will be protected at all costs. This is an irreconcilable conflict. The female hawk must find ways to kill Jamie, and the executor must do his best to protect Jamie. In order to avoid being obstructed, the female hawk must not The executor will be spared!
(The situation is getting worse and developing in an unfavorable direction, and Rivenel has to go. It seems it is time to formulate the next round of response plans.)
squeak.
"Hey, He Fei, what are you sitting there thinking about? Let's go, it's time for us to set off!"
Complex thoughts quietly emerged, and cold sweat covered his forehead. Just when He Fei was sitting alone and worried, there was a noise, the door opened, and Inspector Jim stepped inside. He walked towards the clothes rack in the corner and brought the young man back to reality from his thoughts. , while talking, the middle-aged man picked up his windbreaker and put it on his body. Seeing this, He Feiruo realized something, and then he immediately stood up and asked, knowing everything he knew, "What's wrong, sir? Let's go? Where are we going?"
As expected, as soon as the question came out, Inspector Jim, who was already wearing a windbreaker and tie, raised his eyebrows slightly and announced the answer. He tightened the tie around his neck, then waved his hand slightly and responded: "Where to? Of course, follow that person. Come on, some colleagues in charge of surveillance just reported that the suspect has made some moves and is currently driving away from the city with his lawyer friend. Come on, let’s follow him now. Hmm, I want to see where the suspect plans to go! "
