Chapter 4: Go to the scene of the crime

Drops of sweat slipped down his forehead, and he was so frightened that his face turned like dirt, and his heart seemed to be filled with a weight at this time, so that he could no longer make a sound and take a breath.

A few seconds later.

"Whew, whew!"

He gasped for air, his chest heaving and heaving.

Mu Bai had never had such a dream, and he didn't have any dream that felt similar to this dream.

Everything in the dream is vivid, as if what I just did was not a dream, but traveled to a horror movie.

It took him a full ten minutes to suppress the aftermath of the nightmare.

Getting up from the bed and coming to the living room, Mu Bai poured a large glass of water and drank it all in one sip before sitting on the sofa.

"So...... Am I seeing the future again?"

He muttered blankly.

The old man is the old man who helped him buy a ticket in the morning.

Mu Bai didn't know what the monster that appeared in front of him at the end was, but no matter what the monster was, a man and a woman died at the hands of that monster.

Thinking of the old man's kind eyes, and the kindness of the old man's conversation with himself, he was completely unable to associate the old man with a man-eating monster.

"Illusions, hallucinations, from morning to now, are hallucinations!"

"How can there be these monsters? I'd rather believe that this old gentleman can still dance with youth at the age of seventy, than believe that the old gentleman is a monster......"

"It's so abstract!"

Constantly making self-suggestion, Mu Bai tried to calm himself down.

But deep down in his heart, he knew it very well......

All this can never be an illusion.

Shaking his head hard and signaling himself not to think about it, Mu Bai walked to the water dispenser again and drank a large glass of water.

Then, the feeling that I had already experienced once reappeared.

I'm so hungry......

……

……

Twelve o'clock in the morning.

Heli Lao 24H hot pot restaurant.

Just like yesterday at the self-service hot pot restaurant, Mu Bai at this time was completely immersed in the process of filling his stomach and clearing away his hunger.

In less than an hour, a bowl of oil had been emptied by him.

Holding the bowl, Mu Bai walked quickly to the self-service spice table.

sesame oil, oil, coriander, chives......

After adjusting the oil dish, he was about to go back to continue eating, when he found a girl next to him looking around.

Her hair was tied into a beautiful ponytail, she was wearing an ordinary white T-shirt and a pair of light blue hot pants, and she was full of youth.

A very good-looking girl.

Mu Bai didn't think much about it, he didn't care about anything other than eating now.

However, the girl stopped him.

"Hello handsome guy, may I ask, where can I get the bowl of the oil dish?"

Mu Bai glanced at the girl, then pointed to an area beside him.

"Thank you!" the girl smiled sweetly.

Mu Bai didn't say anything more and quickly returned to his position.

After the girl adjusted the oil dish and returned to her position, she answered a phone call, and then she hurriedly left the hot pot restaurant with a look on her face, leaving only the bowl of oil dish on the table.

Mu Bai didn't notice this, he only had this pot of hot pot in his eyes.

He ate until just after seven o'clock in the morning, when he slowed down his eating.

At this time, there was something other than food that attracted Mu Bai's attention.

The TV in the hot pot restaurant is ringing the sound of the morning news.

"Let's take a look at the news sent back by the reporter in front of us, in the early hours of this morning, there was a death case in the city, there were two deceased, and the place where the case occurred was in ...... At present, the case is still under further investigation. ”

After listening to the short report on TV, he was stunned for a moment.

Although he felt that he had only eaten seven points full, Mu Bai had no intention of eating any more.

"Boss checkout!"

Looking at the text message sent by the bank to spend more than 2,000 yuan, he trembled his eyelids.

"I should have endured and found a self-service hot pot restaurant before, it's a blood loss!"

But right now, it's not the time to worry about money...... He hurried to prove one thing.

Because, the address of the news report is the same as the location of the scene in his previous dream.

It's all on the hair salon street.

……

……

Rongcheng has been undergoing urban expansion over the years, and the government has divided the main city and the surrounding districts into numbers for ease of management, and the location of the seventh district is on the edge of the main city.

Despite its marginal location, the economy of the 7th arrondissement is barely on the edge due to the large floating population.

There is a university town, there is an industrial park, and similarly, there is a hair salon street.

Mu Bai called an online taxi with his mobile phone, and arrived at the road outside the hair salon at 7:50.

Although it was obviously the first time he came here, what made him unbelievable was that everything around him was so familiar......

It's all the same as that dream at night!

Mu Bai, who found this, swallowed his saliva, and according to the dream in his memory, he found the hair salon street with ease.

The style of painting a hair salon street during the day and a hair salon street at night is completely different.

This is evident in the fact that almost no hair salons are open.

The reason for this situation is that after a night's work, everyone needs to rest and recuperate in the morning.

Although the hair salon is not open, Mu Bai has seen the names of shops such as "Xiaoli Massage" and "Wang Po Health Care" in his dreams.

"It's true......"

After glancing around, he reluctantly came to this conclusion.

Coming to such a conclusion, it is not because the surroundings are the same as dreams, if it is just like this, Mu Bai will still stubbornly refuse to admit it.

But...... The small building in which the old man and the girl went in together had been cordoned off by the relevant departments.

This shows that the location of the incident in reality is exactly the same as the location of the incident in his dream.

"The time of the incident reported by the TV station was around 1 a.m., and it was not until 12 o'clock when I woke up from my dream...... According to this time, I was eating hot pot at a hot pot restaurant at the time of the crime. ”

Such a thought flashed through his mind, and Mu Bai was already completely sure that he had seen the whole process of this murder in advance before this murder case happened.

So, what is the monster that the old man turned into in the end?

Mu Bai stood in place, his mind blank.

Wait a minute......

In the final picture, the old man became......

It's a half-human, half-snake monster......

Thinking of this, without any hesitation, he took out the mobile phone in his trouser pocket and opened WeChat.

In WeChat, Lao He, who called him yesterday morning, really sent him a video.

Tap it on.

He had never seen such a large python, let alone such a terrifying scene.

At least twenty meters long python coiled on several load-bearing pillars in the underground garage, the scales of the snake's body were glowing with a black-red halo, and the load-bearing pillar continued to make a clicking sound, the python seemed to have found someone filming, and instantly escaped from the load-bearing column, and before escaping, its tail inadvertently hit a load-bearing column.

The outside of the concrete-poured load-bearing column instantly turned into powder, and the steel bars inside were also directly broken in response.

The length of the video is very short, and before Mu Bai can fully see the sky-swallowing python, the playback has been terminated.

"Gollum~"

He swallowed.

"It's so big, it's enough to eat for a month, right?"
