Chapter 43: Death strikes
About an hour later, Alex and the group of seven arrived outside the café they had been in.
"Tatsu hasn't arrived yet?"
The seven of them walked around the café and found no trace of Tatsu.
"Sit down and wait!"
The white dove said, walked over to a table, pulled out a chair and sat down.
Seeing this, the rest of the people also sat down one after another, ordered a few cups of coffee by the way, and then looked around to see where Lin Chen, Tyri, and Carter would appear from.
Maybe it's because it's still early, there are no people in the café at the moment, and even the seats outside are only seven people from Alex's group, but there are a lot of pedestrians coming and going to work on the street, which is in stark contrast to the desertion of the café.
"What have you been looking at?"
Billy noticed Alex's anomaly and asked curiously.
"Somehow, I'm always a little panicked, Tyri was almost hit by a car here before, and now that we're here again, it always feels like we're jumping back and forth on the edge of death." Alex replied.
"Don't scare me!" When Billy heard this, he couldn't help but shudder, and he felt a little panicked for a while.
"Don't think too much, don't die before you make a move, you scare yourselves, scare yourself to death." Shocked by this, he shook his head, sneered, and mocked, these NPCs are too timid, if it weren't for helping them complete advanced tasks, they wouldn't want to carry these oil bottles.
"Whew!"
A car rushed towards Alex and the others, and when they were about to crash into it, they heard a whoosh, and the car stopped directly in front of the café.
Then, two people stepped out of the car, and it was Terri and Carter.
"You're here early." Carter first said politely, and then said, "As soon as I got the news, I went to Tyri's house to bring her with me, but why did you call the two of us over?" The two of us have escaped the Grim Reaper's death design, and we shouldn't be on the death list. ”
"This is what Chen said, I don't know the specific situation, we are all waiting for him." Alex explained.
"Well, it looks like we've come to the right place." Carter said, and Tyri sat down directly at the table next to Alex.
"Don't say anything about the right thing, if you come here, doesn't it mean that you are afraid of death, otherwise you wouldn't come?" Billy couldn't help but complain that he still held a grudge against Carter for the act of almost hitting him.
"You!"
Carter was about to say something when Tyri reached out to stop him.
Seeing this, Carter glared at Billy fiercely, waved his hand to the waiter, and asked for a cup of coffee for him and Tyri.
It was about nine o'clock in the morning, and Lin Chen hadn't arrived yet, but a construction truck with a billboard came.
Looking at the engineering truck parked next to him and the others, Alex twitched slightly.
"Crunch!"
With a sound, the crane arm of the engineering vehicle stretched out.
Seeing this, Alex stood up directly from his seat.
"What are you doing?" Xiaoxiao noticed Alex's anomaly and asked.
"I didn't do anything, just looking at this engineering truck, I was a little panicked, and I felt that something bad would happen." Alex replied.
"Yes?" Hearing this, he turned his head to look at the engineering vehicle in front of him, looked at it carefully for a moment, and said: "It's just an ordinary engineering vehicle, people are just working, what are you worried about." ”
"Alex should know that he is the next person to be attacked by death, and the whole person is a little frightened." The stunned sting also glanced at the engineering vehicle, but did not find anything abnormal, and sneered.
"You!"
Alex's face turned red as soon as he was stung, and he struck a stunned look.
Seeing this, he smiled indifferently.
The white dove seemed to sense Alex's embarrassment, pondered for a moment, and waved his hand towards the store.
"What more services do you need, sir?"
After a few moments, the waiter walked up to the white pigeon from the store and asked him with a smile on his face.
"No, I just wanted to ask, what is this car for?" The white dove stretched out his finger and pointed to the construction truck not far ahead.
"What's this?" The waiter looked in the direction of the white pigeon's finger, paused for a few seconds, and then said, "The supermarket next door is about to open, and they are going to install billboards." ”
As soon as the waiter finished speaking, another large truck came from afar, with a large billboard behind it.
"I see! Thank you! The white pigeon thanked the waiter, then turned to Alex and said, "It's just an advertisement, if you're worried, stay away from him." ”
"Hey, hey!" Alex smiled awkwardly, but he was still a little uneasy, and said, "I'd better go to the other side, I'll stay away from this thing, and I'll come back when Chen comes." ”
After Alex finished speaking, he walked directly across the road.
……
"Why is there a construction truck in front of me that has occupied the road?"
A green pickup truck drove from behind the construction truck, and when the construction truck and the big truck directly blocked half of the road, the driver directly moved the steering wheel to cross the yellow line and drive to the other side of the road.
But when the driver just drove to the other side, a panicked look appeared on his face instantly, and a figure rushed out from the gap between the construction truck and the big truck.
The driver honked his horn frantically and slammed on the brakes to try to stop the pickup.
……
Alex walked down the road, turning his head to look at the construction truck behind him, and somehow the intense uneasiness grew stronger.
"Alex be careful!"
Suddenly, Alex's ears heard a cry of laughter, and he subconsciously looked towards Xiaoxiao, and found that Xiaoxiao was screaming while reaching out and pointing behind him.
Before Alex could turn his head, there was another screeching sound of cars ringing in his ears.
"Dididi!"
Alex didn't have to turn around to know what was going on, and he opened his legs and rushed straight across the road.
With a whoosh, the pickup passed by a centimeter away from Alex.
As the pickup truck drove away from him, Alex sat down on the ground with his legs limp, and under his watchful eye, the pickup slammed into a nearby telephone pole as if it had lost control.
Before Alex could recover from the thrill of the pickup passing by, in his sight, the telephone pole broke in response to the situation and smashed directly in the direction of the engineering truck, directly on the arm of the engineering vehicle.
The arm of the car was hit, and the entire arm began to break apart from the middle, while the billboard, which had just been lifted by the arm, shook in the process and pointed directly at Alex.
