Mysterious resurgence

The so-called miracle is of course impossible to happen.

The only thing that can be explained is that Yang Jian's ordinary action just now broke the ghost's killing pattern, allowing Russell, who would have been targeted and killed at 2:15, to escape the ghost's attack.

The rules are broken.

But what is the reason?

What method did that ghost use to select targets? How could it change just by moving the carpet?

If this is the case, it means that this ghost's killing pattern is actually quite simple, so simple that anyone can easily do it.

"The position of the carpet changed, and then when Russell came back to life, the ghost did not stop and start killing people like before. Is the carpet the key? No, the carpet is not the key. The footprints left by the ghost on the carpet are the key."

In the dim corridor, this tall, lifeless male corpse was still wandering strangely.

It walked with heavy footsteps, leaving behind them rotten footprints.

The footprints are not clear, there is only a little black outline. Only after a few days, when the corpse water left on the footprints rots and deteriorates, will it become clear, just like what Yang Jian saw when he first entered the hotel, that one A black rotten mark is particularly eye-catching.

"This ghost's ghost footprints were left on the carpet, so someone died? No, that's not right. Now this ghost is still wandering around and making footprints, but no one died nearby. In other words, this ghost Leaving footprints is only one of the conditions, the other condition is the key.”

Yang Jian's eyes flickered, and he knew that he was very close to the truth.

The fact that Russell survived this time gave him a big reminder, and he directly rejected some far-fetched ideas, leaving only one condition that was close to the truth.

"Perhaps we can discover the truth by replaying the scene where we passed through the corridor before." He vaguely felt that part of the reason why he and others were targeted by this ghost was because they had all walked through this corridor.

Because when this ghost started killing people, it had been wandering in the corridor where they and others had just passed.

If there was no connection between the two, he wouldn't believe it.

Otherwise, this ghost was wandering somewhere else. Why didn't Xiong Wenwen predict the death of himself and others?

The pattern is here.

"Yang Jian, I will be the next one to die." Suddenly, Xiong Wenwen, who had foreseen the future, suddenly opened his eyes in horror. He once again foresaw a very bad outcome.

"It's still the same as before. I can't see the process. I can't see this ghost. I only see my body split into two parts, lying on the ground bleeding."

"No, you were targeted by that ghost again?" Russell, who had just escaped from death, was dumbfounded when he heard what Xiong Wenwen said before he could celebrate.

"I, I don't know what's going on. Do you think I want to be targeted by that ghost?" Xiong Wenwen was so anxious that he cried.

Russell also began to panic. He knew that Xiong Wenwen must not die. If he died, no one here would be able to predict the death of others. If it is unavoidable, then he will die once, not in the foreseeable future. Suspended death.

"Yang Jian, if you pull the carpet handle again, maybe a miracle will happen."

"No, no need. I have probably figured out the killing pattern of this ghost, but I still haven't figured out the last bit. I want to replay the scene when we walked in just now. Give me some time. By the way, Xiong Wenwen, next time When will you die?" Yang Jian asked immediately.

"Two minutes later." Xiong Wenwen said tremblingly.

"There is still a little time, it should be enough."

Yang Jian took a deep breath, and then opened the ghost realm again. This time, the scope of his ghost realm was not large. One ghost eye only covered the ghost realm to the front three meters.

The ghost realm was not covered up, but appeared in front of everyone like a red projection.

"I used the ghost realm to create an illusion, simulating everything that happened in the corridor just now. You see, this is what it looked like when we came in here just now." Yang Jian controlled the ghost realm, and immediately a carpeted corridor appeared in the red ghost realm. in.

"This is the ghost's movement route. This route is very precise. I saw the footprints left by this ghost."

"The ghost walked back from this intersection first, leaving a series of footprints along the way. Please pay attention to the location of the footprints. This is what it looked like when we came in."

The images of Yang Jian, Russell and the others appeared again in the ghost realm. This was exactly the scene they had just walked in.

"The ghost didn't kill anyone when it walked back."

In the ghost domain, the transformed ghost and the transformed Yang Jian and others passed each other in the same corridor, but everyone was in peace.

"The problem started when the ghost turned around and came back." Yang Jian's ghost eyes moved, and the illusion in the ghost realm changed. The ghost began to turn around and walk back, just like it was walking towards him at this time.

"Ghosts move very slowly, so pay attention to the time. The first time a ghost killed someone was at 2:10, which was when Xiong Wenwen was attacked for the first time."

"I don't see anything wrong." Russell opened his eyes wide, trying to see something, but found nothing.

Yang Jian said calmly; "The message is already very clear. I will re-transform it into what it looked like when we came in at this time."

Then, in the ghost realm, Yang Jian and the others appeared again.

At this moment, in the eyes of everyone, the ghost walked forward along the passage with them.

But at some point, something very remarkable happened.

In the ghost realm, at ten minutes past two o'clock, the ghost's footprints overlapped with Xiong Wenwen's footprints in the passage.

No, to be exact, it was the ghost that covered Xiong Wenwen’s footprints on the carpet.

The scene in the ghost realm stopped.

It was Yang Jian who stopped on purpose. He narrowed his eyes and said, "You see, at ten past two o'clock, when the ghost turned around and walked down the aisle, the ghost footprints it left happened to cover the footprints left by Xiong Wenwen before. Then this ghost It stopped and started killing people, and Xiong Wenwen was attacked."

"Looking at the position where the ghost swung the knife, I have noticed before that the position where the ghost swung the knife happened to be at Xiong Wenwen's neck, so his head fell off."

"But the one the ghost slashed with his sword was not the current Xiong Wenwen, but the Xiong Wenwen when he left the footprints."

The scene in the ghost realm started moving again.

The ghost raised the rusty hatchet and slashed.

Xiong Wenwen, who had left footprints there, was hit by a hatchet and his head fell off.

"This is exactly the same as the death I predicted before." Xiong Wenwen screamed in fright when he saw this scene.

"Oh my God, it turns out that this ghost will start killing people as long as it steps on the footprints left by others." Russell almost jumped up in surprise.

At this time, Xiong Wenwen saw the simulated scene in the ghost domain and pulled Yang Jian's arm and shouted: "Hurry, the time is coming, this ghost is going to step on my footprints again."

"No, stepping on the footprints is not the key. Will there be fewer footprints when the ghost walks down the aisle? To truly meet the requirements, the ghost's footprints must completely cover our footprints. That's when the ghost starts killing people. Time." Yang Jian grabbed the carpet under his feet and turned it over.

All the footprints that everyone had left on the carpet were left on the reverse side.

Two minutes were up and Xiong Wenwen was fine again.

The ghost still roams the hallways.

Seeing this scene, Yang Jian breathed a sigh of relief.

The judgment is correct, this ghost's killing pattern is to start killing by stepping on other people's footprints.

In this way, it is no wonder why he and Xiong Wenwen were fine when they first encountered this ghost. Only when the ghost realm was about to be shattered by the smiling ghost did Xiong Wenwen predict the death scene of the two people.

The ghost realm was gone, and the footprints were naturally exposed. The ghost that was wandering in the restaurant on the second floor could easily step on their footprints.

"Damn, this, such an easy-to-find pattern almost killed several of us. No wonder you haven't been attacked, Yang Jian. It's because you have been walking against the wall since you came in. There are footprints beside you. In the middle, that ghost walking in the middle can't even hit your footprints."

Russell took out a cigarette from nowhere. He held it in his mouth but could not find a lighter to light it.

"Judging from my replay of the scene just now, this is indeed the case." Yang Jian said.
