Chapter 15: Patterns of Change
"Carter? How so? The Grim Reaper is dead, this time it must be an accident and has nothing to do with it! Alex muttered, ignoring Billy on the ground, and rushed towards Lyudun's hospital room like the wind.
Entering Liudun's hospital room, Alex breathed a sigh of relief. Lyudon was fine, and she was awake, and Claire was talking to her.
"What's wrong? Why is your face so ugly? After Liu Dun saw Alex, he noticed Alex's ugly face and asked in surprise.
Claire on the side thought it was because of Billy's affair and wanted to help Alex speak. But before she could say anything, she swallowed it back, for she saw Billy walking in unharmed. Even Claire was surprised this time, not because of Billy, why Alex's face was still so ugly.
"It's nothing, Mr. Liudun, you woke up, how do you feel?" Alex calmed down a little, temporarily suppressed the conjecture just now, and asked with a look of concern on his face.
"It feels fine, everything else is fine except for a little weakness, just a little rest. Alex, did our plan succeed? Lyudun replied, and then asked. In fact, when she found out that she was still alive, she knew that the plan was likely to succeed, but she just wanted to confirm it with Alex.
Alex suddenly didn't know how to answer, if it was just now, he must have confidently said that he had succeeded. But now, after having that conjecture in his heart, he is no longer 100% sure.
"Your plan succeeded, but it also failed." When Alex didn't know how to answer. Billy spoke. It's just that his words made Liu Dun very confused.
"What do you mean?" Lyudun was shocked and looked at Alex.
Alex was silent, but Billy wasn't. "Succeeded because you lived, failed because Carter just died." Billy's words were like a thunderclap, shocking the three of them, including Alex.
Alex looked at Billy, he had just seen the Carter's avatar that flashed for less than a second?! Alex was extremely shocked in his heart, Billy obviously had no traces of strength beyond ordinary people!
"What! Carter is dead? How so, aren't we already," Lyudon said. Suddenly, he stopped talking. Because Carter is dead. It means that the Grim Reaper was not killed. But if the Grim Reaper isn't dead, why would he be okay? Lyudun's mind was shrouded in a great mystery.
"Carter is dead? How do you guys know?! Claire's voice then rang out, looking at Alex and Billy. There was a flash of doubt in his eyes. She couldn't believe it. Or can't believe it. The beauty just now is just a beautiful misunderstanding.
"On TV, we saw Carter, who died in a car accident." Alex spoke in a low voice. He has also stopped deceiving himself, and accepts that Carter's death was due to the Grim Reaper.
Claire's face instantly turned pale, and the light that had just lit up in her eyes quickly dimmed, almost turning the color of dead ash.
"Don't give up hope, we still have hope. See! Originally, the goal of the Grim Reaper was Teacher Liudun, but now Teacher Liudun is still alive and well, which shows that we are still capable of the other Grim Reaper! Alex pulled Claire, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, hoping to reawaken hope in her.
"Alex, after Lyudun, the target of death is Carter, right?" Billy's voice suddenly rang out, and then, without waiting for Alex to answer, he seemed to have gotten the answer he wanted, and continued, "If that's the case, then Carter's death says something." The Grim Reaper did not die, or rather die outright, and the rules of its game have changed. ”
"What do you mean" Alex turned and looked at Billy with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
"Huh! You guessed it right. The Grim Reaper skipped Lyudun and killed Carter. As for why it skipped Liudun, you should know better than I do. And now that Carter is dead, who will be next? This one is uncertain, it may continue in the original order, or it may be that the Grim Reaper has a completely different set of patterns. Billy glanced at Claire and looked away.
"So, according to your guess, who will be next?" Alex had let down his guard against Billy, as they now had a common enemy.
"Huh! I don't know, it could be you, it could be me, it could be her, I can't guess. But you have the ability to know. Your hunch will tell us who will be next! If there is any weakness in this Grim Reaper, your hunch is its greatest weakness! Billy said, staring at Alex with an inexplicable blue light flashing in his eyes.
Alex was silent, and his heart suddenly brightened, yes, even if the Grim Reaper changed his plan, his premonition that appeared for some reason was its nemesis, and it was also the only chance for himself and others!
"Now, though, we have other advantages than your hunch. Like, your strength. You've used it to confront the Grim Reaper head-on, and you've killed it, or wreaked it down. Since you have the ability to hit it hard, there should be a second, a third! Even if the Grim Reaper really doesn't die, we can defeat him. Billy said, his eyes suddenly flashing blue for a moment, and then quickly dimmed, as if he hadn't seen before.
"What should we do now?" Alex listened to Billy's words, and inexplicably had a lot of hope in his heart, and Billy gradually began to be convinced.
"Why don't we try the same way last time?" Liu Dun suddenly interjected.
"No, it's okay to use that method once, but the second time is definitely certain death, we are facing death!" Alex spoke sternly, and immediately rejected Lyudun's suggestion, and his attitude was more resolute than ever.
Billy shook his head slightly, disagreeing with Lyudun's suggestion. "It's the same method, it's better not to use it a second time, it's the same for anyone. My suggestion is that we better stay together now, not only to look out for each other, but also to brainstorm ideas. ”
"Then let's stay in the hospital now, it should be safe enough here, and it can also allow Teacher Liudun to recover as soon as possible." Alex suggested.
Billy nodded, agreeing to Alex's proposal, and then suddenly turned and walked out the door.
"Hey, didn't you mean staying together? Where are you going? Alex saw that Billy had just offered to stay together, so he turned and walked out the door, and couldn't help but ask.
"I think it's necessary to study how Carter actually died, which might help us understand how Death did this time." As he spoke, Billy's figure disappeared into the doorway.
For some reason, Claire wanted to follow Billy, but was dissuaded by Alex. This mysterious Billy, Alex is not worried, but Claire, Alex is not worried about her safety.
It wasn't long before Lyudun fell asleep again because he needed to rest, Billy returned. In Billy's hands, there is a more high-end laptop at first glance.
Before Alex could wonder, Billy moved the screen of his laptop that had been turned on in Alex's direction and asked, "Do you see anything?" Or is there some kind of strange induction? What Billy showed Alex was a relatively clear video, and the focus of the video was a car accident.
Alex watched the video intently, and then shook his head silently, he didn't have any sense, which may have something to do with his absence. Billy didn't show a look of disappointment on his face, and this situation, as he expected, was unlikely to be sensed through the video after the fact.
"Huh! Noticed? Carter had a chance to escape moments before he was hit and killed by the bus. However, his car would not start and exploded when it was knocked into the air. These are the masterpieces of the Grim Reaper. If the car won't start is an accident, then the explosion is the new trick of the Grim Reaper. Billy said, pointing to the vehicle in the video that exploded in the air after being knocked into the air.
"You mean, the Grim Reaper is no longer limited to accidents or malfunctions in order to ensure the complete death of his target?" Alex said in amazement. (To be continued......)
