Chapter 104: The Fourth Man
After finally getting the two little nurses done, I called Stone to ask him if he had any useful news. After the phone was connected, Shi said to me: "Uncle Liu has returned to his hometown, I don't know when he will come."
Putting down the phone, I smiled wryly, and then I didn't know where to start the investigation, obviously found some clues, but here it was suddenly interrupted. Now the enemy is in the dark, I am in the light, and the situation is not optimistic!
I was about to go to the school gate to look for stones, when my mobile phone rang, I took it out and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.
"Hello, who are you looking for?"
"Liu Tian, I'm Yan Chen, where are you?"
"What's going on?" I didn't expect Yan Chen to call, he seemed to have encountered something that couldn't be solved, and his tone revealed panic.
"Where are you, I'll look for you." Yan Chen said to me in a trembling voice.
"I'll be waiting for you at the school gate." With that, I hung up the phone and headed straight for school.
When I got there, Shi was waiting early, and when he saw me coming, he sighed and said to me: "I asked a lot of people, and I heard that Uncle Liu took leave to return to his hometown, and I don't know when he will come."
I took the cigarette he handed me and told him, "Yan Chen called me and made an appointment to meet here."
"Yan Chen, what is he looking for you for?"
I took a puff of my cigarette: "I think he must have encountered a problem, I told him last time we parted, call me if there is something, I guess he is most likely encountered something that cannot be solved!"
"Yes, the things that money can solve in this world are not called things, this kid must have met a ghost!" Stone stared intently at the beautiful woman walking by the school gate and said to me.
About fifteen minutes later, Yan Chen came. When he saw us, he didn't bother to greet us, gasped and said to me, "You must help me, I don't want to die!"
"What's going on, you speak slowly." I handed him a cigarette and lit it for him.
He took a puff and coughed repeatedly: "I ...... I almost died! I had another nightmare last night and dreamed of a woman hanging from a tree. When I woke up, I opened my eyes and saw a woman sitting on the edge of my bed, it was too dark for me to see clearly, and when I turned on the light, the woman was gone! There are a lot of bloody handprints on the walls, and all the goldfish I raised are dead! ”
I patted him on the shoulder and motioned for him to speak slowly.
After a pause, Yan Chen said to the two of us: "Although this dream has recurred, it has never been as outrageous as last night, I know that I am afraid that I will not live long, you must help me!"
"Why are you calling now because of last night's incident?" Stone asked.
Yan Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead: "I haven't slept for a few days, I wanted to call you early in the morning, but I fell asleep."
That's when I noticed that his eyes were bloodshot.
"What do you think?" Stone threw away the cigarette butt and asked me.
I wondered if the big tree and the woman in the dream would have something to do with the woods behind the school! There was no conclusive evidence, so I didn't dare to guess, so I said to Yan Chen: "That's it, you live in the stone tonight, and I'll take all the guys to find you."
"What, live with me, Brother Tian, you ......" Shi looked very embarrassed.
"The three of us are staying with you tonight, and I'm going to go into his dreams and see what is going on."
When I saw that neither of them objected, I said to them, "Go back first, and I'll go to you when I've got my things."
They nodded, and agreed, although the stone face was not very good-looking, but I had no other way, my room was too small to sleep three people, so I could only sleep with him.
"Wait, I have something to ask." When I saw that they were leaving, a question suddenly came to my mind.
"The psychic game you talked about earlier is played by four people, who else is it?"
"Yes...... Be...... I can't say...... "Yan Chen was stumbling, as if he had a difficulty."
I said to him, "If you don't make it clear, I don't think I can help you!"
"Then promise me not to tell anyone about it." Yan Chen said to the two of us seriously.
The stone patted his chest and swore solemnly: "Don't worry, I promise not to tell others."
"What about you?" Yan Chen looked at me.
"Well, I promise you won't say it."
"The other person is...... It's Li Hui. ”
When Yan Chen said this, I couldn't believe my ears, it was Li Hui, how could it be her! Why didn't she tell me about it, why did Yan Chen hide it from us!
I'm so stupid, Li Hui was the first to have an accident, I actually excluded her, all along, I thought that Li Hui's accident was man-made, but I didn't expect that she also played that psychic game!
How to explain Li Hui's assassination, I really don't understand! I asked Yan Chen, "Why didn't you tell us earlier?"
"Because...... I...... I promised her that I couldn't say it! ”
What do I think of this guy's expression when he mentions Li Hui, he obviously likes her! I can't wait to slap him, she actually likes the woman I like!
I said to them, "It's all right, you go first, I'll be there later."
Sending them both away, I didn't rush back to get my things, but stood at the school gate for a while. I don't understand, why didn't Li Hui let Yan Chen tell others about this, if she had known that she had played that psychic game early on, maybe this matter wouldn't have become so complicated! Yan Chen, this guy looks quite clever, he can't tell the priority of things, and he has to help her hide it all the time!
But then again, what's going on with that book, who threw it at the school gate, and what is the purpose of his doing this, I always feel that Yan Chen seems to have something to hide from us!
One is the woman I like, and the other is the person who likes the woman I like, that is, my rival in love, I have spent so much effort investigating this matter, and I have been kept in the dark!
To be honest, I really don't want to save Yan Chen, it's better for him to die! But what difference do I have from those demons and monsters in doing so! Forget it, don't think about it, no matter what happens, I will definitely find a way to wake up Li Hui!
I went back to pack my things and walked non-stop to the stone dormitory. Tonight I will open the altar, enter Yan Chen's dream, and use my soul to invade his body, so that I can naturally see what he can see, but there is a certain risk in doing so, if he is awakened by a nightmare halfway, my soul will probably not come back.
