Chapter 36: Departure
"Tell me, some basic information about the predecessor Mrs. Huo, as well as ...... When and how did she die. ”
Gao Ying and Zhu Sunling both looked at Huo Jianan at the same time, and Gao Ying also wanted to know the information about the predecessor Mrs. Huo.
Whether there is a human factor in the death of Mrs. Huo is a key. If there is a possibility of murder, then ...... The root cause of this exam may be the revenge of evil spirits.
According to Huo Jianan's account, the former Mrs. Huo died not long after Huo Jialin was born. And the cause of death ...... It's because of asthma.
It is worth mentioning that Huo Tianheng bought a villa in Lanwan Town to live here entirely because his wife's asthma needed to be recuperated in a place with fresh air. However, no matter how careful she was, she eventually died of asthma.
"Asthma?" This made Zhu Sunling ponder, although she volunteered to study medicine, but her research direction is based on genetics, and it is impossible to understand all diseases in detail. However, if someone deliberately puts an allergen in the room, it can indeed be murdered.
"The villa is usually cleaned carefully to avoid any allergens, right?"
"Yes, it has always been."
Zhu Sunling thought about it, in terms of the result, the biggest beneficiary of the death of the predecessor Mrs. Huo was Lan Caiyu. Zhu Sunling has never been afraid to speculate on others with the greatest malice, and she can't help but consider this possibility.
However, after repeatedly questioning Huo Jianan, he did not get valuable information. The current Mrs. Huo Lan Caiyu also met Huo Tianheng after the death of her previous wife. It's just that Huo Tianheng has many properties in QuanTW, and he still chose to live in this villa after his wife's death, which is enough to see that he is still unforgettable for his former wife.
Other than that, there is no other valuable intelligence.
And during the whole process, although Gao Ying and Zhu Sunling were full of vigilance, they were very surprised that no supernatural events occurred.
All...... It's all incredibly calm.
After a long time, their search for the villa has come to an end. Quite a bit of intel has been gathered here. It is still difficult to speculate how much this information will help the exam.
However, Gao Ying felt that it was safer to leave here first. If you encounter ghosts inside this villa, if you want to escape, the terrain is really quite unfavorable. And now, neither Gao Ying nor Zhu Sunling have received too many rewards that have direct help against the ghosts. The reward for immunity from ghost attacks was quite useful, but it is no longer available. Therefore, in order to survive, completing the exam paper naturally becomes the best way.
At this point, Zhu Sunling also agrees with Gao Ying. Although candidates must be in danger, they should not be too blind. At this stage, there are still many channels for collecting information, and it is better to choose to accept it when it is good.
When he went downstairs, Gao Ying was already mentally prepared, for example, everyone downstairs died in an instant...... He absolutely believed that this devil exam had done this kind of thing, and he had fully understood what hell was in the last exam. And with his presence in this examination room, the difficulty is likely to increase accordingly.
Fortunately...... Not a single one died. At least on the surface.
"Let's get out of here first, Gao Ying."
"Hmmm......"
Zhu Sunling finally made sure to erase everyone's memories, and then glanced at Zhu Cibi.
"I don't believe in God." Zhu Sunling glanced at the child, and said in a rare voice with obvious emotional fluctuations: "May you not be targeted by death." ”
Gao Ying also sighed, this child is really pitiful.
"We ...... Maybe it won't save her at all......"
"Cibi, I ask you......" Zhu Sunling gave the last order to the child, and at this time the door of the villa had been opened by a servant she ordered, "Is there anyone at the door now?" ”
She didn't want the last one to happen again. Humans can't see ghosts with their naked eyes, and there's no one like Agnes, Agnes, who can detect ghosts.
"Nope." The kid replied categorically.
Gao Ying and Zhu Sunling left the villa, and in the process, Zhu Sunling never looked back.
Although she has always had a special affection for children in her heart, there are limits to her protection of Zhu Cibi. In this exam, she always put her life as her first priority. She also acknowledges that the sentiment of sacrificing oneself to save others is great. But she values her own life above the lives of others, and Zhu Sunling doesn't think it's a shameful thing. People sing about self-denial because people often want others to be that "self" and become that "person" themselves.
On the way down the mountain, Gao Ying and Zhu Sunling were both keeping a high degree of vigilance and paying attention to their surroundings. It's getting late now, and ghosts can appear at any moment, like prey to hunters. And the saddest thing is that they, as prey, have no means to counter the hunters.
That's the scariest thing about the devil's exam. People can only survive by virtue of their wisdom, and there is no other shortcut to survive except for making exam questions.
As he walked, Gao Ying would look back from time to time, and although he didn't have a premonition of danger, he still felt that the evil spirit was probably following behind.
According to the analysis of the last question on the exam, it is likely that the evil spirit is someone they have already met and come into contact with. The evil spirits deceive them in the form of living people, and all the candidates are ignorant of it. It's not the first time Gao Ying has experienced such a thing. Even with Agnes, when the evil spirit is too powerful, its perception can be wrong. Frankly, that's pretty bad.
The question Gao Ying is thinking about now is, what posture will the evil spirit appear in front of the candidates? Finally, the true face of evil spirits is a big question, and the score is quite high, so it is unlikely that evil spirits will appear directly in human form. Even from the examination papers, it can be inferred that there are many other evil spirits that can kill candidates like pawns.
There are too many possibilities to be related, and although a lot of information has been collected, the more you know, the more you feel that you are overwhelmed by this complex interpersonal relationship.
Therefore, Gao Ying's first consideration now is to go to Charlene and ask some more about the summer camp that year. In addition to that, it is necessary to know how many people went to the beach that night, and whether anyone else heard that scream.
Gao Ying had a hunch.
The evil spirit is probably hidden among the people who went to the beach in the summer camp that year!
Even Charlene, too, could be an evil spirit!
