Chapter 336 Murder
Chapter 336 Murder
Tsing Yi Street.

Yu Wenxuan and the other three were still waiting.

With Du Shangjing's example in mind, no one could be sure of the exact start time of the task.

Several people paid close attention to the time.

The rain was still falling, and Yu Sheng looked up at the street intersection from time to time, but there was still no sign of Bai Yanliang.

I can only hope that this mission doesn’t start tonight.

"It's almost twelve o'clock."

Gu Pingsheng said.

Feng Xiuxue glanced at the time. It was only one minute to twelve o'clock, and Bai Yanliang hadn't arrived yet...

Regardless of their friendship, at least Bai Yanliang never harmed his companions during any mission. Instead, he provided a lot of help.

Therefore, even Yu Wenxuan more or less hoped that Bai Yanliang would show up in time, or that the mission would not start tonight.

However, there is a psychological effect called Murphy's Law that objectively exists.

As long as there is some possibility that something may go wrong, no matter how small that possibility is, it will always develop towards a bad result.

At this moment, it happened.

The surroundings suddenly became extremely quiet, the rain stopped abruptly, the sky seemed to have suddenly become much darker, and even the surrounding buildings seemed to have undergone some subtle changes.

"Time and space are changing," Gu Pingsheng said solemnly, "Wu Ji's mission start time has indeed been affected."

"Bai Yanliang didn't make it." Feng Xiuxue said as she turned her head to look at the street entrance.

However, she saw a familiar figure walking towards them.

"Look, is that Bai Yanliang?"

Feng Xiuxue's eyes lit up.

The other three people looked back at the same time. The man who was walking from the street entrance was soaked all over, as if he had just been pulled out of the water. He looked extremely embarrassed.

"Be careful, the mission has already begun. We don't know if it's a ghost or Bai Yanliang."

Yu Sheng opened his mouth but still didn't say anything. He just looked at Bai Yanliang worriedly.

"Stop!" Yu Wenxuan was the first to speak, shouting at the figure that looked like Bai Yanliang.

The figure just walked under a street lamp, the light shone on him, he raised his head, revealing a face familiar to everyone.

It’s Bai Yanliang indeed!

"Bai Yanliang?" Yu Wenxuan asked suspiciously.

Bai Yanliang glanced at the four people and nodded: "It's me."

"Why did you come just now?" Yu Wenxuan's suspicion did not diminish at all, and he still did not let Bai Yanliang get close to him. "What's with the water on you? It's impossible for the heavy rain just now to soak a person like this."

Bai Yanliang glanced at the four people and said, "It's raining. It's much heavier than in the city. I just came back from the suburbs."

His words gave the four people different looks.

"What do you think?" Gu Pingsheng asked for everyone's opinions.

"It's him." Yu Sheng confirmed.

"I think so too, it should be him." Feng Xiuxue also agreed that Bai Yanliang in front of her was not a ghost.

But Yu Wenxuan remained silent.

"Do you think there is something wrong with him?" Gu Pingsheng asked, looking at Yu Wenxuan's changing expression.

"Yes." Yu Wenxuan answered immediately. "Where?" Gu Pingsheng asked.

"The look in his eyes and his overall temperament." Yu Wenxuan stared at Bai Yanliang under the street light not far away, "He looks much gloomier."

Hearing this, Gu Pingsheng also took a closer look at Bai Yanliang and said, "I think this kind of change is normal. If it is a ghost in disguise, it would not make such a low-level mistake."

What he said made sense. After thinking about it, Yu Wenxuan shouted to Bai Yanliang for some unknown reason: "Come here!"

Bai Yanliang, who was soaked all over, looked up at the four people before approaching them.

Although they let him come, the four of them were on high alert at the moment. If Bai Yanliang did anything wrong, they would immediately scatter and flee.

Fortunately, their judgment seemed to be correct, and Bai Yanliang walked in front of the four people without any abnormality.

"How did you end up like this? Did you get tricked by the Abyss again?"

Yu Wenxuan said somewhat dissatisfiedly.

"Yeah." Bai Yanliang replied concisely.

"Heh." Yu Wenxuan chuckled.

"Talk less." Gu Pingsheng said. At this moment, he was the oldest among the five people in the group. The mission had already begun, and it was best not to have conflicts at this moment.

"What do you think about this?" Gu Pingsheng glanced at several people.

"When they came back, they said that the strange events that were erased by Wu Ji were gradually resuming, so I checked the major events that have happened in Tsing Yi Street over the years." Yu Wenxuan glanced at Bai Yanliang, then turned on his mobile phone.

Gu Pingsheng took his phone, held it in front of everyone, and read: The death of the deceased was horrific.

"At the first time point, a male corpse was found on Tsing Yi Street..."

"At the 15th time point, a female corpse was found on Tsing Yi Street..."

"At the first time point, a male corpse was found on Tsing Yi Street..."

"At the 27th time point, a female corpse was found on Tsing Yi Street..."

"..."

"Time Node 1, Tsing Yi Street..."

The more they looked, the colder the air around them felt.

"How could it be... that there have been so many murders on this street?" Yu Sheng trembled a little. From that point on, there would be a murder on Qingyi Street every month! And with so many cases, she had never heard of any news even though she had been living in Yecheng.

"There was no news about these cases before. The people who were killed just disappeared, and even their relatives lost their memories of them. The traces of the existence of these people killed by ghosts were completely wiped out..." Gu Pingsheng's voice was a little emotional, "If it weren't for Wu Ji's power getting weaker, this information might have been blocked for a lifetime."

"That's none of our business. What we have to do now is to watch the murder that is about to happen and then find the real murderer before dawn," said Yu Wenxuan.

"But isn't this contradictory?" Feng Xiuxue crossed her arms, "Since we can see the murder scene with our own eyes, how can we not find the real murderer?"

Yu Wenxuan glanced at Feng Xiuxue and said, "Our mission is to find the real murderer. How do we know if we have found him? Do we see him with our own eyes? Or do we catch him with our own hands?"

Yu Wenxuan’s question got everyone thinking. Yes, how can we find the real murderer?
"If... the murderer is a ghost, how are we going to catch it?" Yu Sheng said in a low voice.

All five of them fell into deep thought.

Gu Pingsheng looked at Yu Wenxuan's phone, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter. He suddenly looked up at everyone: "Wait."

The four of them turned around and looked at him.

Gu Pingsheng's voice was chilling as he said, "If the power of Wu Ji is erasing the impact of the illusory events, then who wrote the information that reappeared after being erased due to the weakening of Wu Ji's power?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of night wind blew by, and waves of chill penetrated from the surface of the body into everyone's heart.

It seems like there are a pair of huge hands in this world, or a pair of huge eyes, looking down on everyone.
