Chapter 272: The Wind Rises
Alex and the others had just gotten out of the taxi when they happened to witness the accident.
They stood on the side of the road and watched the scene of the car accident not far away, where many people were shouting and running.
The front right front of Carter's car was badly damaged, especially the passenger seat.
Blood was oozing out, dripping down the cracks in the twisted doors that could no longer be opened.
If the previous plane accident was too sudden, too incredible, and made people feel unreal through the glass, then watching Tyri's accident this time made several people really feel the existence of death.
Death is like the sword of Damocles, hanging high above your head, swinging gently in the wind, ready to fall at any moment.
Carter, who was driving, was helped out by passers-by and sat on the steps of the sidewalk, looking fine except for some abrasions on his forehead.
It's just that the whole person sits there sluggishly, his eyes are straight and a little scary.
It happened so fast.
Although everyone hurried over to find Tyri, they were more thinking about how to persuade her to believe this bizarre statement.
No one expected that Todd, who was attacked by the "Grim Reaper" last night, would come back today.
"Tyri...... She...... How can it be so fast? Todd was already incoherent.
Alex had a little tear in his eyes, and said through gritted teeth: "I was looking out the window in the taxi just now, and suddenly I felt some discomfort in my heart, and at that moment it seemed that a large truck flashed outside the window...... But when I looked closely, I found that there were no trucks. ”
"It's an omen!" Claire exclaimed.
"But I didn't pay attention at the time...... I, I thought it was just a dazzle in my eyes, and I didn't understand the true meaning of the van at all. Alex said remorsefully.
"Don't think too much, sometimes, even if you figure it out, you can't stop it." Qi Zihuan's cold voice came from behind him, "We can only do our best." ”
Although Qi Zihuan said a simple and direct truth in his mouth, a sense of powerlessness also rose in his heart.
Twice during his time at the rink, his little paper figure sensed the "Grim Reaper" coming to the space around him, and later found a chance to get into Tyri's bag, and then felt it again in Carter's car.
But it still flickered, and before it could get closer, it had already dissipated without a trace.
Three times, Qi Zihuan understood that something was going to happen, but except for the first time he found the signs and created a small accident to successfully stop it, the last two times were because the arrangement of the "Grim Reaper" was too far away or too sudden, and he was already irresistible after realizing what the accident was.
Carter's sudden arrival disrupted the Grim Reaper's second plan, but he still couldn't escape the third.
"In this case, the order of death we deduced earlier should be correct, and at the same time, we have determined a rule of death."
Claire was the first to calm down, and she quickly distanced herself from the whole process with a frown, and reminded her with words.
"What are you sure about?" Alex was in a state of turmoil.
"It's just an assumption, like Todd last night, even if it doesn't succeed after the Grim Reaper's shot, he will continue to go down the death list for the time being."
Todd muttered, "Me, Tyri, Mr. Lyudon, Carter...... The first two have already verified this order list, but what about waiting for everyone to finish their rounds? Will the Grim Reaper give up killing us, or will he start killing me again? ”
Everyone looked at him silently.
According to the persistence and unguardable means displayed by the "Grim Reaper" at present, the possibility of letting them go is indeed very small.
The biggest possibility is that everyone has tried their best to escape this round of pursuit, and the shadow of death will come again.
Don't die, never stop.
"Since the plane accident, it took half a month for the Grim Reaper to find Todd, but after only one night, Tyri ......," Qi Zihuan said slowly, "This proves that the rhythm of Death's killing, at least for now, is unpredictable, and new accidents may occur every moment." ”
Everyone was cold, looking around in confusion.
Although the order of death has been speculated, who knows if the "Grim Reaper" will have convulsions and appear by his side in the next second?
In the end, the eyes of several people still fell back on Qi Zihuan, and there was a faint feeling that they had already regarded him as the backbone of their hearts.
Alex asked, "Mr. Qi, what do you think we should do?" ”
"I think it's best for us to stay together as much as possible, and think about the reasons for the family...... And try to persuade the remaining few people as quickly as possible. Qi Zihuan paused for a moment and directly began to divide the work, "If the inference of the death list is correct, the most dangerous thing now is Liudun, and we are all relatively safe." So, let's split up, Todd you stay here with Carter on the aftermath of the accident, Claire and I go to Lyudton while Alex goes to persuade the boy named Beechcraft. ”
Qi Zihuan was anxious to get several people together, on the one hand, he felt that since he came to this world, he could save the next one, but more importantly, he had not met the "Grim Reaper" head-on so far, and it was almost impossible to catch the "Grim Reaper" just through the little paper man.
Although he kept talking about the death list, he was not sure whether he was on the list or not.
Strictly speaking, he is likely to be an existence that has jumped out of the Three Realms and is not in the Five Elements to this world.
In case when the "Grim Reaper" kills the others and hides, who will he go to?
……
As a teacher, Liuton has a responsibility for safety in organizing students to travel abroad.
Now most of the students in the entire class were killed in the accident half a month ago, although the school did not investigate it for the time being because it was an accident, but self-blame and guilt still tortured her every day to the point that she couldn't sleep.
When people are under unbearable pressure, their first instinct is often to flee.
Lyudon too, she has already packed the soft at home, and is ready to leave this place completely after completing the resignation and handover procedures of the school in two days.
But just then, her student Claire knocked on her door with the Oriental man who also survived the plane accident.
She patiently listened to Claire's explanation and expressed shock at the news of Tyri's death.
"Claire, although I have always been curious about oriental culture, I have also learned some about it through some books. But it would be incorrect to attribute everything in this world to mysterious events. Liuton persuaded Claire from the teacher's standpoint, then turned his head and said with some embarrassment, "Mr. Qi, I'm sorry, I don't have any prejudice against your beliefs and culture. ”
"I understand."
Qi Zihuan didn't care, and replied with a smile.
His mind was constantly watching for movement around him.
"But Mr. Lyudon, Alex and I have a hunch that has been fulfilled in Todd and Tyri, and according to the original order of our deaths in Alex's dream, you are next...... Claire said anxiously.
"The whole country was shocked by this plane crash, and we, as survivors of this disaster, will have some psychological problems to a greater or lesser extent. To tell you the truth, the teacher's heart can't get over this hurdle, and he has insomnia all night...... As for you and Alex, you must have fallen too deep, and there has been a certain degree of confusion in your thinking, causing you to think you can be psychic. Believe the teacher, at this time you should be brave enough to seek help from a psychiatrist, in fact, the school has already made arrangements in this regard. ”
I have to say that there is some truth in Liuton's words, and he is sincerely thinking about his students. If Qi Zihuan hadn't seen that weird black fog every time, maybe he would have believed it.
Claire persuaded a few more words, but she still couldn't change Liu Dun's mind, so she could only look at Qi Zihuan helplessly for help.
Qi Zihuan, who had been relatively silent, spread his hands and took the initiative to say, "Claire, since Teacher Liudun doesn't believe it, I think we should say goodbye." ”
"But ......"
"It's nothing, but Teacher Liuton is right about one thing, whether there is really death or not, it is indeed right for you young people to actively seek the help of a psychiatrist in the future."
Liu Dun glanced at this oriental man who seemed to be polite and reasonable, and the faint defense in his heart was eliminated a little.
Claire's last persuasion was fruitless, and she got up and said goodbye with Qi Zihuan in frustration.
Lyudton insisted on sending them out.
Walking on the lawn in front of Liutun Gate, Qi Zihuan's eyes suddenly narrowed.
The wind is blowing.
