Chapter 21: Mutation
Jiang Kun's ghost crawled on the ground, dragging out a hideous bloody path. Just when Shen Lili thought that she was going to die, the ghost suddenly let go of her hand and put something boxy in front of her, no need to think about it, it was naturally the box.
"Don't, don't......" Shen Lili remembered what Li Chenyin had told herself, she must not open this box. But under the gaze of the ghost, her body had moved involuntarily, and seeing that the smile on the ghost was getting more and more hideous, Shen Lili's hand was less than five centimeters away from the box.
Final Countdown, 5...... 4…… 3……
At the critical moment, she suddenly felt that she was being grasped by a pair of invisible hands. "Miss Wang!" She was overjoyed, and immediately understood that the other party did not abandon her, but used props to hide.
Wang Xiao also took a great risk this time to launch the regional props left by Li Chenyin for himself, and with the increase in the number of uses, the props in his hand can only last about a minute now. She took advantage of the moment when Shen Lili broke away from the control of the ghost, grabbed the other party and successfully prevented Shen Lili from opening the box.
"The countdown is back!" Tian Haibo's heart almost jumped out of his throat, but fortunately, at this last critical juncture, Wang Xiao's stepped forward to prevent the deterioration of the task.
In the café, Wang Xiao took advantage of the props to cover and pulled Shen Lili from upstairs to the hall on the first floor. The moment the props failed, the lights in the café came on again, and everything returned to normal.
"What's going on?" Shen Lili, who was in shock, looked at Wang Xiao and smelled the mellow smell of coffee in the air, she felt that everything that had just happened was like a dream.
"I don't know, but let's get out of here first." Wang Xiaogang walked out of the café with her, and collided with Zhou Yan, who rushed to support. Zhou Yan saw that the two of them were safe and sound, and finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Good job, I actually saved the target person from the hands of the ghost twice." It seems that the props that Li Chenyin gave you are really easy to use......"
"I warn you, this is Sister Chenyin's stuff, don't try to fight this prop's crooked brain." Wang Xiao took two steps back vigilantly, Shen Lili on the side didn't have a good impression of Zhou Yan, and Wang Xiao rescued herself three times and twice, so she naturally stood on the same side as her.
"Look at what you said, how dare I offend her......" Zhou Yan touched his nose playfully, and the index finger wrapped in gauze in his left hand reminded him all the time of what Li Chenyin had done to him.
"It's good that you know what you know." Wang Xiao snorted coldly, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and prepared to contact Li Chenyin. However, there was no answer on the other end of the phone......
Before going back, Li Chenyin suddenly noticed that something was wrong after the call with Tian Haibo ended. Her eyes were staring at the rearview mirror in the car, and the originally kind driver's face suddenly changed at this moment, and his facial features gradually distorted and fell off...... Gradually, it became a different face.
"Hmph, it's really haunting." Li Chenyin snorted coldly, but he didn't expect Han Jianping's ghost to still not give up the pursuit of himself. And Tian Haibo also encountered the same situation, and there were also ghosts in the taxi he was in.
Li Chenyin did not hesitate to use props this time, and directly activated the pocket watch to stop time at the moment when the ghost appeared, and then pulled the car door and left the scene. And Tian Haibo is not as lucky as her......
When the ghost appeared, his attention was completely focused on the call with Li Chenyin, and he didn't notice that the driver in the driver's seat next to him had turned into a swollen female ghost. After Li Chenyin got out of the car, he found that this place was not too far from his destination, so he rushed to the place where Wang Xiao and the others were on foot alone.
She tried to call Tian Haibo, but the other party never answered.
"Another one is dead?" She sighed and couldn't help but quicken her pace.
"Sister Chenyin, you're back!" Wang Xiao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after seeing her figure. "Hmm." Li Chenyin nodded and looked at Shen Lili. Fortunately, the other party still thinks he is human.
"Hmm." She nodded, and then said, "Tian Haibo is dead." ”
"Then it's just the three of us now." Zhou Yan asked, "Have you found a way out?" ”
Li Chenyin didn't answer his question directly, but turned around and asked Wang Xiao: "What about that box?" ”
"Disappeared with Jiang Kun's ghost." Wang Xiao said with palpitations.
"Got it, take care of her for the next three days, and there will be no problem." Li Chenyin's words made Zhou Yan and Wang Xiao's eyes light up, so it seems that the other party has found a way out of the mission.
"Miss Li, does it mean that as long as I survive these few days, I won't have to be chased by ghosts for the rest of my life?" Hope ignited in Shen Lili's eyes. As the only person at the scene who knew her true identity, Li Chenyin's eyes flickered a little, but she still responded: "Well, it will be completely over in three days." ”
"Ah, that's great!" Shen Lili breathed a sigh of relief and said to a few people: "I don't know how to thank you anymore, so be it, I'm ...... I'm going to have a meal! ”
In the following days, Li Chenyin took care of Shen Lili very carefully, and she and Wang Xiao were on duty day and night, in order to prevent Shen Lili from being bewitched again.
However, it seems that because Li Chenyin has cracked the way of life, in the next three days, there will be no more attacks from powerful ghosts.
Although Wang Xiao still doesn't know what the way of life is, she is full of gratitude to Li Chenyin in her heart. "Sister Chenyin, when you go back, can you tell me how you solved the survival of this mission? I want to learn. In the hotel room, Wang Xiao said to Li Chenyin in a low voice.
"Yes." Li Chenyin can always see some shadows of his sister in Wang Xiao, so he treats this girl a lot more leniently than others.
It's eleven o'clock in the evening, and it's the last hour since they're back in space. At this moment, the atmosphere in the room became tense again, the stability of the previous few days did not mean everything, no senior person would let down his vigilance until the task was over, and the same was true for Li Chenyin and the others. Even Zhou Yan, who had always looked at her unpleasantly, became extremely serious at this moment, he held the scroll that he had taken away from Chen Xinghua tightly in his hand, and the three of them surrounded Shen Lili in the center of the room, not daring to take their eyes off her for a moment.
Shen Lili, as the key object of protection, is naturally very apprehensive in her heart. As long as she can survive tonight, she will be able to say goodbye to this nightmare once and for all...... Except for the ticking and turning second hand, the room was unusually quiet, and none of the four of them spoke, all on nervous and serious alert......
"Tick" When the time pointed to 11:55, the lights in the room suddenly went out.
In the dark, Zhou Yan only felt a sinking in his hand, he lowered his head, and found that what he was holding in his hand was no longer a picture scroll, but a ...... Shen Lili's head!
