Chapter 359: Signal

After pulling the girls away, Meng raised the assault rifle in his hand, and a bullet shot at the head of the driver in the driver's seat of the bus. Meng Conversion, who has been fighting in various virtual reality gunfight games for more than a year, has now improved his marksmanship by leaps and bounds, and this kind of close-range shooting will not miss.

Why shoot the driver, the reason is simple.

If the assault rifle bullet can shoot the bus driver, then Meng Jian will drive the bus and go wherever he wants, regardless of the route. If an assault rifle bullet can't kill a bus driver, then ...... There must be something wrong with this bus, so it's better not to get on it.

To Meng Conversion's surprise, after a bullet hit the driver's head, the driver immediately burped.

"Brother Meng, what are you doing?"

"Brother Meng, you have killed someone!"

"What should we do if the driver dies?"

“……”

When the girls saw that Meng Jian came up and didn't do anything, they shot the driver directly, and they couldn't help but freeze.

"If you think about it, there's no one here, there's no cell phone signal, how can there be a bus in a place where birds don't? If there is a bus, there must be a problem with the people who drive the bus. Meng Jian got into the car from the front door, pushed the driver's body with the butt of his gun, and was fully prepared for the driver to suddenly burst out and bite people or something.

Luckily, no.

Meng got off the bus, went around the front of the car to the door next to the driver's seat, opened the door and dragged the driver's body down. The driver was a middle-aged man who looked like an ordinary person, which was a bit strange.

Meng Jian squatted down and searched the body...... Nothing was found.

What's going on? It's the same as the armed men before it. It's not a ghost, but it's a strange appearance in this quest world. Are they NPCs?NPCs set by the quest system?But what is the purpose of these NPCs set by quests?

I really don't know what to do.

"Alright. Get in the car! I'll drive. Meng Jian talked to the girls, and then got into the cab.

A few girls, you look at me, I look at you. In the end, they got on the bus together and sat down in the seats closest to Meng Conversion. Although the scene of Meng Conversion's murder just now made them feel a little excessive, after all, Meng Conduit was with them, and they also knew that his original intention was for their safety.

"There's no one in this car, it's a bit weird. Yu Ke glanced into the carriage and said to the others in fear.

"Brother Meng, don't you dispose of the driver's body, in case someone finds out and calls the police or something......" Shen Sisi said to Meng Jian uneasily. Meng Jian had killed someone just now, and they ...... It's all eyewitnesses, and the police won't bother them, right?

"Leave him alone. If there is any trouble, I will bear it alone, if the police ask you for questioning, you can just tell the truth, I have a lot of money and background, and the police dare not trouble me. Meng Jian knew that he couldn't tell these girls for a while, so he simply made up nonsense and blocked their mouths.

"That's good. Several girls glanced at each other, anyway, there are many cases of people with rich backgrounds in this society who only lose money and do not pay for their lives, and it is not surprising to hear Meng Jian say this.

"Brother Meng, the car is heading to the film and television city, right? I think we should turn around and go back to the city, right?" Chen Zhijun gestured to Meng Jianjian.

"yes. Don't go to the studio, there is no one there, and it looks like a ghost town at night. The other girls chimed in.

Meng Jian saw that the girls all said this, so he didn't insist very much. After turning the car around, it drove in the direction of the so-called 'city'.

This weird road, weird bus stop, weird bus...... Meng Jian didn't think that the other end of the highway would be the city.

Sure enough, I turned around and went back. Meng Wei felt that he should have arrived at the place where the bus stop was just now, but he didn't see the bus stop. The body of the driver in the middle of the road was also not seen.

"What about the bus stop just now, why is it gone?" Feng Qian, who was sitting by the window, also noticed this, and asked the other girls a little strangely.

"It's over, right?" Shen Sisi replied to Feng Qian casually.

"I kept looking out the window. Feng Qian shook her head.

"What's going to be going on?" the other girls were surprised.

Meng Yi's bus drove all the way over. I found that not only was the bus stop missing, but also ...... There are no other bus stops along the way. Even the extended luxury car that crashed and burned on the side of the road, and the bodies of armed men on the ground were nowhere to be found.

However, Meng Jian was not very surprised by this qiē, it was not surprising that anything strange happened in the mission world, but he still kept these strange things in his mind, mixed them with other clues that he had found, and wanted to deduce from them where the 'real murderer' of this nightmare-level mission was.

The girls were already tired, and they were bored sitting in the car, so they leaned back on the back of the chair and staggered for a short time before leaning together and falling asleep.

Meng Yi's car kept driving, and there were street lights on the highway where he started, and there were no street lights at the back, but fortunately, there were car lights to illuminate it. The speed of the bus has been maintained at about 60 kilometers, and it has been driving for more than an hour, and finally, it has come to the end of the road.

It is indeed the end of the road, because when a good road arrives, it suddenly breaks off and becomes a broken road, and the front of the broken road is the same as the side of the road, which is a patch of bushes.

Ahead, there is no so-called city, only a dark spot that cannot be seen clearly.

"Where is this?" Feng Qian opened her eyes in a daze, and the other girls also woke up one after another, and looked out of the car window together.

"I drove along the road back to the city for more than an hour, but the road was interrupted here. Meng Jian explained to the girls.

"Did you encounter a fork in the road, could it be that you made a mistake?" Shen Sisi asked Meng Conversion.

"No, this road is very straight, there has always been only this road, there are no forks in the road...... There's nothing in the city or anything like that, and if you don't believe me, you can go back the way I came, but there may not be enough gas. Meng Jian said to the girls.

"I didn't disbelieve you, just asked. Shen Sisi hurriedly explained.

"That'...... Brother Meng, what should we do now?" Yu Ke asked Meng Conversion.

Meng Jian didn't squeak, he still didn't have much clue about this nightmare mission in his head.

The theme is "Prison Birds", the play "The Real Murderer" performed during the day, followed by a 72-hour countdown, and there are two bird cages behind the station with two birds in lockdown. This is basically all the clues that Meng Jian has in his possession, but these clues seem to have no connection with each other except for the subject matter and the painting, so he has no way to judge at all.

And now, on the way back to the city by car, the driver ...... The female staff member was killed, and several of their actors fell into such a dead end.

According to Meng Wei's experience, all the trial tasks designed by the system can be progressed, just like a computer game, even if it is a sand table game, it should have a main line, and it can't just fall into a dead end, right?

What's next?

"What's that?, is someone signaling us?" Shen Sisi, who was sitting at the front of the car, pointed to the front window of the car and asked Meng Conversion.

High in the distance, high in the distance, it should be a place like the top of a mountain, right?

There was a bright light that lit up rhythmically to this side, as if someone was signaling this way, and the sky over there was also brighter, as if there was a light source on the ground that lit up the sky.

Meng Jian operated the headlights, and also rhythmically flashed a few times to respond to the bright light signal in the distance.

The bright light signal in the distance stopped, and after a while, it lit up again, this time only three times, as if to confirm something to Meng Conversion.

Meng Jian turned on the headlights again, causing them to flash three times, responding to the signal in the distance.

"There should be someone there, right?" Shen Sisi responded by looking at the lights in the distance and asked Meng Conversion.

"If it's a human being, it's okay to say, I'm afraid it's a ghost, deliberately luring ~ to confuse us over. Meng Jian replied to Shen Sisi.

"Hell, it's not like it, I think it's the flashlight on your phone. Shen Sisi shook his head.

"Can you two not talk about ghosts, monsters, and things like that in the middle of the night, it's scared to death!" Yu Ke protested to Meng and the others.

After Meng Conversion's response, the bright light in the distance lit up twice, probably someone who wanted to confirm whether Meng Conversion's side was an artificial light.

Meng Jian also flashed his headlights twice again, which was regarded as a response to the other party.

But after that, the light in the distance stopped signaling.

"You take the initiative to send a signal to try?" Shen Sisi gestured to Meng Jianjian.

"Okay. Meng Yi nodded, manipulated the headlights to flash five times, and took the initiative to send a signal to the other party.

Why did it flash five times, instead of two or three times, the main reason is that Meng Jian considered that the other party might also be just a random light operated by a mechanical operation, and it was lit two or three times every once in a while, but if the other party responded five times, it meant that it was artificially operated.

More than ten seconds have passed, and the other party has not responded.

Just when everyone was a little disappointed, a bright light came out again in the distance, once, twice, three, four, five......

"Someone is indeed there!" Feng Qian said as she looked at the direction of the bright light.

"Why don't we go over and have a look?" Shen Si Si said.

"What if it's a trap? I don't care if I'm a big man, you pretty girls fall into other people's traps, and the end will be more miserable, such as being vivisected, wheeled, eaten, made into adults~ meat xiaolongbao, human meat dumplings and the like. Meng Jian reminded a few girls, and then turned off the lights. (To be continued......)
