For some reason, He Fei did not participate in this discussion. Instead, he sat alone in the back row by the window, a little away from everyone else. He was currently holding a puppet and lowered his head in silence, seemingly thinking about something.
Let’s not mention why He Fei didn’t participate in the discussion. In fact, even if he didn’t participate, Zhao Ping had already analyzed the matter clearly.
"First of all, it is certain that we cannot resist hypnosis. Even if we notice the onset of drowsiness, it will be useless. From the fact that Chen Xiaoyao has used Taoism to no avail, we can easily judge that since we cannot resist hypnosis, then we can only We can passively take the beating and let the bastards massacre wantonly in Basili until all the people in the car, including us, are slaughtered."
Adjusting his gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, Zhao Ping announced the truth expressionlessly. He was calm and indifferent, but this did not mean that others would be calm. Sure enough, after listening to Zhao Ping's positive analysis and summary, Peng Ping Hu was no longer calm, and his expressions changed dramatically on the spot along with Li Tianheng who was crowded around him. Then he asked in unison as if he had agreed: "There is nothing we can do? Doesn't that mean we are determined!?"
Faced with the panic and doubts of the two people who were almost the same, if it were He Fei, the college student would definitely change the conversation and comfort him. After all, the most important thing is to calm people's hearts at this time. Even if this is the actual situation, in order to prevent the spread of panic, He Fei They are bound to try their best to talk about hope. However, unfortunately, what everyone is facing this time is not He Fei, but Zhao Ping, a guy who always creates panic intentionally or unintentionally. The result can be imagined, Peng Hu and the two As soon as the question was asked, the man with glasses nodded directly and affirmed: "Well, you two are right, we are dead. After all, this scorpion's killing method is too weird, so weird that there is no solution. If nothing happens, we will No one will live to see the sun tomorrow."
Plop!
What does it mean to never give up until you scare people to death? This means never giving up until you scare people. When Chen Shuihonghong saw the bespectacled man categorically threatening to die, Chen Shuihonghong collapsed on the spot and sat down on the ground. Due to his fat body and sudden movements, the fat man not only sat down on his own, but also took the adjacent ones with him. Lu Chengbing on the other side was knocked over together. As for Jiang Liqing, who was already full of fear, she simply rolled her eyes and fainted. She was frightened by Zhao Ping's analysis and conclusion. If Tang Meng hadn't been able to hold her in time, the woman would most likely have died. It will roll far away due to the vibration of the car body.
"Hey! Sister Liqing, what's wrong with you? Wake up!"
Not to mention how Tang Mengzheng pinched the woman's middle finger to wake her up. On the right, as the first two people to ask questions, Peng Hu and Li Tianheng were furious. The answer made Ji Xia's face turn red, especially Peng Hu. Looking at Zhao Ping's calm look that had remained unchanged for thousands of years, the bald man's forehead twitched and the corners of his mouth twitched, and then he pointed at the other person as if he wanted to speak: "You, you, you …”
"etc!"
Suddenly, just when Peng Hu was so angry that he couldn't say a complete sentence, he seemed to hear a hidden meaning in the glasses man's words. On one side, Cheng Ying frowned slightly and opened her mouth, pressing the button on Peng Hu's arm. At the same time, he stared at Zhao Ping and asked tentatively: "You just seemed to say that if there is no accident, we are dead, right? Then can I understand the possibility of an accident? If there is an accident, what is the accident in your mouth? What is it again?"
……………
As expected of a professional killer with careful observation, Cheng Ying grasped the key point of the problem when others, including Peng Hu, were frightened to the point of weakness or angry by Zhao Ping. The key point was Zhao Ping's analysis and summary just now. There is an uncertain factor hidden in it, and that is accident.
As for what accident means...
"three sides."
After listening to Cheng Ying's question, Zhao Ping narrowed his eyes and held out three fingers at the same time. He explained calmly and calmly: "I divide the accident into three aspects, which means that there are three possibilities that can allow us to avoid the accident. Destroy."
"Are there three possibilities? Let's talk about it." After getting the other party's affirmative answer, Cheng Ying followed up without doubt, while Zhao Ping nodded and continued: "The first possibility I call it counterattack, maybe In the following time, we will discover the weakness of the worm. As long as we master the weakness of the worm, we will be able to effectively defend or simply counterattack according to its weakness. Even if we cannot destroy the worm, the worm cannot destroy us. , when that time comes, the last we can do is stall for time through a stalemate and hold on until the end of the mission."
In fact, what Zhao Ping said is nothing new. To put it bluntly, it is defensive counterattack. In the past missions, the executors have used this method many times to fight against the monsters. In many cases, they can indeed detect the opponent from the monsters' attacks. Characteristics and even find the opponent's weaknesses. Although this time it is an old matter, it is still possible after all. But then again, although this method is effective, it also has major shortcomings. The shortcomings are obvious, then The casualties are destined to be huge. After all, passive defense is equivalent to being passively beaten. God knows how many people will die during the repeated attacks and killings of Qi?
So naturally, after hearing Zhao Ping's first guess, Cheng Ying nodded lightly without comment. The other people around her also had a similar reaction. Seeing this, Zhao Ping, who also knew what was going on, immediately started talking. As for the second possibility, the strange thing is that he said that he was going to continue to explain, but before explaining, the man with glasses shifted his eyes and looked to the opposite side, looking at the unconscious girl who was being held in Peng Hu's arms.
Affected by it, the crowd made the same move and looked at the girl one after another. During the gaze, some people seemed to have some enlightenment. Among them, Chen Xiaoyao understood the most thoroughly. Sure enough, with just one look, Taoist Chen seemed to understand something. Touching his hair, he turned to Zhao Ping and tried to say: "Huh? Could it be that Senior Zhao, you mean..."
Although Chen Xiaoyao seemed to have realized something before, he hesitated to speak later. Although Chen Xiaoyao seemed to have not finished what he said, in fact, even if he didn't say it, everyone present who had the title of senior understood what he meant. Zhao Ping nodded directly. In response, he went on to say some speculative analysis:
"As for the specific characteristics of the Sky Eye, I don't think we need to say more. The ability to see through almost all changes and disguises can really be described as powerful. In addition, Chen Xiaoyao, you once said that her soul is quite special, unlike Ordinary people are so fragile. In this case, if, please note that I mean if, if Kong Ling is not comatose, I think with her eyes and special soul, she has the ability to find worms with her eyes, and she may even be able to resist them. Physical hypnosis, that is to say, as long as we can revive the emptiness, then the team can hope to avoid destruction."
In fact, it is enough to say this, there is no need to continue. From Kong Ling's first boarding to the several missions during the period, the girl's overall ability has been clearly seen by everyone, but it is precisely because of the understanding of the girl's ability that no matter it is Whether Zhao Ping, He Fei or other senior people, everyone has long believed in the Sky Eye and is convinced that the Sky Eye can see through any disguise. As Zhao Ping just analyzed, if Kong Ling is awake now, then what will happen if Kong Ling is awake now? The difficulty of tasks that seem to be unsolvable is very likely to be reduced. At the worst, you can still find the worms with your clairvoyance.
As Zhao Ping's analysis ended, everyone subconsciously turned to look at someone, Chen Xiaoyao, the only person at the scene who could revive someone.
Yes, after all, I have the impression that this guy has done it many times to forcefully revive a comatose person. Since he has done it before, why not do it again this time?
Unfortunately……
Facing the expectant eyes of Zhao Ping, Cheng Ying, Peng Hu, Li Tianheng and Chen Shuihong, Chen Xiaoyao smiled, but it was a forced smile. He shook his head helplessly with an expression that was several times uglier than crying, and just shook his head and sighed. Bian shrugged and explained: "Okay, I admit that I can use the awakening spell to stimulate the degree and wake people up early, but the problem is that this little girl is in a deep coma. Do you know what a deep coma means? It means this girl At present, in addition to the brain being dormant, even the soul is also dormant, and the awakening spell can only stimulate the brain, so I really can't wake her up."
When Chen Xiaoyao explained the crux of the problem with a sad face, Li Tianheng, who had just had hope, suddenly turned pale, and Chen Shuihong, who was more hopeful at the side, all returned to fear as if they had been poured cold water on their heads, while Zhao Ping, Cheng Ying, and others Peng Hu and the other two people also frowned subconsciously and fell into silence.
(It seems that Kong Ling really can’t be counted on in this mission, okay...)
Thinking of this, Cheng Ying eliminated the distracting thoughts and returned to the topic. She rushed to Zhao Ping before Peng Hu and asked: "Then, the third possibility you mentioned is..."
"Ahem."
Seeing the female killer asking questions full of curiosity, Zhao Ping reacted. After quietly glancing at someone in the back row, he coughed and replied calmly: "As for the third possibility, well, it's better to say that it's not so much a possibility. It was a survival method that I accidentally thought of, a way to avoid the locust attack and escape from the bus. Of course, this so-called method is actually just my personal guess."
"Eh? You, your kid, have thought of a way? Hurry! Say it quickly, say it quickly!" As expected, upon hearing that the man with glasses claimed to have come up with a way to break the situation, the crowd exploded, except for Li Tianheng and Chen Shuihong, who were just dejected. In addition to being energetic, even the newcomers who had been confused about understanding due to their shallow experience subconsciously showed joy. Peng Hu opened his eyes wide and instinctively asked, urging the other party not to be nagging, and Zhao Ping indeed had no ink marks. , nodded, then raised his right hand and pointed upward.
Um?
Because Zhao Ping's movements were too weird, Peng Hu couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this scene. He was briefly stunned like everyone else gathered around him. Even Cheng Ying and Chen Xiaoyao, who understood toughness, were stunned for a moment and looked puzzled, with doubts appearing on their brows. , yes, I thought Zhao Ping would announce the answer directly, but unexpectedly the other party pointed his finger at it. What does this mean? And what exactly does this person named Zhao want to express?
There was no need for everyone to think carefully about the specific expression, because before they could think it through, Zhao Ping had already taken the initiative to explain:
"I don't think I need to say that everyone knows what the situation is now when things have developed to this point, and the hidden bug that threatens us has been killing people frequently in the carriage. Before killing, it will definitely hypnotize most people first. In the end, only the passengers who were the prey were left to face the locusts, and faced the locust attack alone without being able to see other passengers. We didn't know this at the beginning, and we didn't understand until Yang Zhibin left clues before his death. ,but……"
Having said this, Zhao Ping paused and continued: "Although this is the reality, have you ever paid attention to a problem? That is, all the passengers who were killed, no matter who they were, died in the carriage. Inside the bus!”
There was no reason, no reason. Just after the bespectacled man pointed out the crux of the problem of 'dying in the carriage', almost everyone, including the newcomers, subconsciously shook their bodies and their eyebrows changed color. Immediately, everyone looked as if they understood something.
I understand, I understand completely. It turns out that Zhao Ping actually meant this. In fact, it makes sense if you think about it carefully. The specific reason comes from the task rules!
First of all, you must understand that the task stipulates that the executor must take the bus to the destination, and it is strictly forbidden for everyone to take a detour or change buses during the process. Since the rules have restricted everyone from leaving the bus, the executor can only stay in the car and wait. You don’t have to worry about breaking the rules in the car, but the problem is that it’s not safe because there are bugs in the car! There is a terrifying evil spirit with unpredictable attack methods. Faced with the unpreventable mental hypnosis, the executor has no choice but to wait for death on the spot, waiting for what will happen to him at some point. was left alone and died tragically. It is also worth mentioning that in addition to the restrictions on execution, many passengers who are plot characters are also restricted by the rules in their activity areas. As a result, a dead end where neither escape nor confrontation is possible. It's done.
This is true, but...
In my memory, the plot characters who were killed earlier and Yang Zhibin all seemed to have died in the carriage or inside the bus.
If this is the case, does it mean that the beetle can only attack passengers in the bus compartment?
Drawing inferences from one example, if the bugs can indeed only attack passengers in the carriage, do the passengers who are restricted by the rules have any way to deal with it?
The answer is yes, just don't stay in the car.
As for how to get out of the bus compartment without leaving the bus?
Roof!
That’s right, it’s the roof. As long as you stay on the roof, you can escape from the bus compartment without breaking the rules!
After thinking about this, the next moment, the crowd became excited. Except for a few senior people who still had doubts, almost everyone had hope for Zhao Ping's solution to the situation. Even though the man with glasses had stated in advance that this was just his personal guess, but this It is still a hope for everyone who has no choice but to wait for death. What if it works? If it is really effective, doesn't it mean that everyone can survive?
"Well, I'm sorry, what are you talking about? I, why can't I understand a word?"
Accidents often happen suddenly. Just when a group of executioners were discussing the issue and a way out in front of the black man Gabri, there was a sound behind him. When he looked back, he saw the police officer named John standing behind him at some point. , judging from his appearance, he seemed to have arrived early and had even been listening for a while. He was kind-hearted and curious, but unexpectedly, after listening for a long time, John found that he could not understand! For example, the sky eye, the worm, the way out, or the inexplicable point above the bespectacled man's finger, etc. Many of the talking actions are simply incomprehensible, at least in the eyes of John who was listening in the middle, so it is natural that the more he sees and hears, the more confused he becomes, and the man endures it. Unable to hold on any longer, he finally intervened out of uncontrollable curiosity.
Due to John's sudden intervention, in addition to being disturbed by Cheng Ying and other executors who were having a heated discussion, He Fei, who had been bowing his head in thought not far away, was also disturbed at the same time. Therefore, he looked up curiously and saw that the person coming was John. For some reason, He Fei Fei Fei, raising his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, stood up from his seat and walked towards the other party. Then, without waiting for John to continue asking, He Fei took the initiative and said something directly to John, a piece of truth that made John stunned for a moment:
"Officer John, I think it doesn't make much sense to continue hiding things like this. As expected, you came to us deliberately to talk about the death case, right? In that case, just tell the truth directly. The truth is very clear. Simple, that is, there is a worm in this bus, hiding a ferocious evil spirit that is enough to kill everyone, including you and me!"
Yes, He Fei has shown his cards. After experiencing a series of horrific incidents, he believes that the time has come. He believes that it is time for this police officer who believes in science to know the truth. The main reason why He Fei is only announcing it now is that he does not want to waste his breath. After all, things like locusts are too unbelievable in the eyes of ordinary people. If it is announced too early, the other party will definitely not believe it, and may even doubt oneself and cause unnecessary trouble. In this case, it is better to choose to wait until things get weird. To a certain extent, it is even so weird that no science can explain it, and then it comes out to tell the truth at the right time. As the saying goes, hearing is false and seeing is true. In the face of naked reality, the other party cannot help but not believe it.
"Wait, 螞? Evil spirit? Will all of us in the car be killed? Mr. He, what do you mean by this? You..." It was exactly as expected. Because the information was too shocking, He Fei had just finished speaking, and John was stunned. Stunned, He Fei instinctively asked. Faced with the questioning, He Fei remained direct and immediately pulled John towards the back of the car: "Please sit over here. Let me elaborate on the specific situation."
First, he followed him out of curiosity. Then, He Fei began to show off his eloquence and deceived John alone with half-truths and half-falsehoods. He continued to describe the general situation in the man's shocking reaction, which became more and more shocked as he listened. Not long after, He Fei finished speaking, but John was still as stunned as a statue and unresponsive for a long time, until...
"Hello, Officer John? Officer John?"
It wasn't until He Fei called many times that the man instinctively turned his head after shuddering, then stared at the young man with an incredulous expression and asked: "You, you belong to the FIB paranormal research team? Are you investigating supernatural cases? Is this What organization is it? Why have I never heard of it?"
"Officer John, please pay attention to your words. Although the government has never been announced to the outside world, its non-announcement does not mean that it does not exist. After all, you also know that many things must be kept secret by the country, otherwise it will easily cause panic, and we are engaged in exactly that kind of work. Investigative agents who work in secret. As for the specific matters, I'm sorry, but due to confidentiality regulations, I can't tell you any more."
"Also, if you still don't believe it, how can you explain what happened recently?"
Relying on his always excellent deception eloquence, combined with the strange reality of frequent deaths on buses, John was finally deceived. Although he did not necessarily believe He Fei 100%, he believed at least 70%. The reason is simple. If the person in front of him What is said is false, so what is the explanation for the successive deaths in the bus? There is also the terrifying phenomenon of being inexplicably swallowed by the ground once you get far away from the bus...
Difficult, is it possible that there really are worms? There is a scary evil spirit that looks like a witch hidden in the car! ?
Thinking of this, and having already believed it for more than 70%, John gradually lost his composure, and hurriedly raised his head and scanned the front compartment, looking everywhere with frightened eyes. It was obvious that John was trying to find the target, the hidden hawk. It's a pity that he is doing useless work. Imagine that even He Fei and other executors who are proficient in supernatural beings can't find the location of the creature. If you can find it at a glance, it will be a miracle!
………
Time passed slowly and entered the night unconsciously.
Time, 22:30.
In the night, with the cold wind howling outside the bus, the bus kept driving along the highway in the vast and desolate wilderness. Yes, in order to cross the wilderness and reach the city as soon as possible, the driver drove very fast, and was currently driving at a speed that was almost speeding. Driving the bus at high speed in the same way, in the same way, knowing that there were hawks in the car, in addition to the executors who were all focused and vigilant, most of the remaining passengers who had been frightened and collapsed by the many fatal incidents were also cautious and wide-eyed. Afraid that they would fall asleep again, and even more afraid that they would be the next to die, the crowd spent the time in fear. Except for the roar of the car body, the entire carriage was silent.
Of course, it cannot be said that being on tenterhooks has no effect. For some reason, since the bus restarted a few hours ago, the whole period has been calm. Everything has been normal for several hours. There has not been a single inexplicable drowsiness. There has been no drowsiness. Naturally, there was no death, which made the passengers who had been worried a little bit more at ease. Many people even had the faint idea that the mongoose might have left.
As for whether he really left? The answer is obviously impossible, absolutely impossible! ! !
At this moment, feeling the dead silence in the carriage, the executioners were nothing but fear. The only reason for their fear was that they had no choice. Until now, they still could not come up with any effective defensive method to deal with the locust attack. Of course, there was no way. Absolutely, Xu had kept in mind the idea of a certain man with glasses. In the silence, apart from always lowering their heads and thinking about He Fei, some of the executors had some changes. They all turned their gazes to Zhao Ping under the pressure of the increasingly strong desire to die. The intention was obvious. ,only……
In other words, what they found strange or even incomprehensible was that when he came into contact with the eyes of several people, the man with glasses shook his head directly, and then used his eyes to hint to them not to speak or act.
The matter was not over yet. At the same time, when some people were suddenly surprised and puzzled, a paper ball came from behind and was quietly handed to the front row. Without anyone noticing, it was thrown directly into the front row. The ball was stuffed into Li Tianheng's pocket...
Um?
