Chapter 1489 Entering a Dream

After Shao Tong returned, everything in the room was as usual. With the help of a broom, Jiangcheng Shao Tong cooperated with each other to put down Zhang Qizheng's body.

"Only the neck was broken, which can be regarded as a fatal blow. There are no signs of struggle on the body. Judging from Zhang Qizheng's alertness and skill, the probability of a successful sneak attack is very small, so I think the perpetrator must be an acquaintance, and the acquaintance acted violently. , there is no time to react." Shao Tong squatted next to the corpse and analyzed, "There are not many people who can make Mr. Zhang lower his guard. Only a few of you, Yao Shunyu can barely do it."

Stretching out his hand, Zhang Qizheng closed his eyes with a look on his face. Jiang Cheng looked at the old man in front of him who had promised him not long ago that he would take good care of Li Bai. His heart felt heavy. He couldn't help but think of Lin Muyun and Lin Muwan's brother and sister. The situation today is still complicated. But he already had some clues.

Suddenly, the fat man's voice came from the yard, which sounded very excited. Shao Tong subconsciously wanted to walk out, "It should be Yao, Shun, and Yu who have woken up."

Jiang Cheng stopped him and said seriously: "Don't talk to anyone about Yao, Shun, and Yu. Zhu Jie and Tang Qisheng are not reliable. They have something to hide from us."

After thinking for a moment, Shao Tong frowned, "You mean... it's not just Yao, Shun, and Yu who lurked in?"

"I'm not sure, but be careful. You are right. Lu Qin and you are just the first echelon. The Night Watch must have a back-up team, and this back-up team may have a way to restrain you. You Be careful. Jiang Cheng lowered his voice and urged.

Shao Tong's face turned fierce, "If you want to survive, you must find them and kill them. I'm afraid they won't jump out." As soon as his voice changed, Shao Tong looked at Jiang Cheng, "But I want to remind you that the mission is almost over. Some things must be settled as soon as possible, otherwise things will change if you wait too long.”

Jiang Cheng seemed startled by the dangerous tone in Shao Tong's tone, "What do you want to do?"

Shao Tong raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a nervous smile, "Since we suspect that Tang Qisheng's Zhu Jie is a variable, then we should strike first and kill them. As for Yao, Shunyu and Yao Shunyu who have been exposed, we can spare his life first, otherwise Wang Fugui will It’s hard for you to explain.”

Sensing the strange look in Jiang Cheng's eyes, Shao Tong smiled nonchalantly and said, "I know you still doubt me, but I'm very happy because I don't want my partner to be an idiot like Lu Qin, that will only harm me. I will prove my sincerity to you."

"One more thing, I have been imprisoned in Area 13 for too long, and I am almost moldy, so please don't look at me like a normal person. I am happy to do some dirty work for you. As long as I can get revenge on the Night Watch, what do I do? It’s all acceptable, even if it means asking me to die.”

"You have to wait until you get out before you die, you are still useful now." Jiang Cheng patted Shao Tong on the shoulder, turned around and walked out.

Back to Grandpa's room, Fatty and the other three were there. Yao Shunyu was already awake at this moment. Fatty brought an old pillow for him to lean on.

Those villagers were right. Yao and Shunyu's injuries were not serious, they were just superficial injuries. But the strange thing was that Yao and Shunyu seemed to have no memory of his fall. His memory only stopped at following the villagers to find someone, and then , I opened my eyes and came back here.

Yao and Shunyu were not in a good mood. He already knew that Li Bai was taken away by ghost villagers and his whereabouts were unknown, and Zhang Qizheng was also dead.

The fat man stayed by his side and kept comforting him. Tang Qisheng made an excuse to go see Mr. Zhang's body, and Jiang Cheng accompanied him.

After entering the room, Tang Qisheng turned around and closed the door. He didn't pay attention to the body on the ground but asked with a strange expression: "Mr. Jiang, there is something I want to ask you. That...Yao, Shun, and Yu, how long have you known each other?"

"It's not a long time, what's wrong?" Jiang Cheng asked back.

Tang Qisheng hesitated for a moment, frowned, and finally said: "I just feel a little strange. According to our previous estimates, the missing person should be Shao Tong, and he was also the one who killed Mr. Zhang, but..." He paused. After a pause, he whispered: "I discussed with Zhu Jie, even if all of this was forged by Shao Tong using his ability, how to explain the villagers' testimony, those things are ghosts, is it possible that Shao Tong's ability can also deceive ghosts? "

Jiang Cheng did not express his position and continued to test, "Then what do you think?"

Tang Qisheng's face was tangled, and he hesitated when he spoke, "I think...I wonder if our thinking at the beginning was wrong and we made the mistake of being dark under the light. The real murderer is someone else, of course. "This is just a hypothesis, you have to decide what to do."

"There are indeed doubts about Yao and Shunyu. Don't alert him first and see what he is going to do." Jiang Cheng exhaled with a solemn expression, looked at Tang Qisheng and said seriously: "At present, Shao Tong's suspicion has been basically cleared. Ruling it out, to be honest, it was the problem he first raised about Yao, Shun, and Yu, and now it seems that it has come true.”

"Is it him?" Tang Qisheng's expression changed slightly.

"Just know these things in your heart and don't show them. There is absolutely no problem with Wang Fugui. He is very close to Yao, Shun and Yu. If you let him know about it, you will be in trouble." Jiang Cheng told him.

Tang Qisheng nodded, "I understand, then... what do we need to do next?"

"Wait." Jiang Cheng looked at the sky outside. The fog lingering in the village has not dissipated. The thick sky seemed to have collapsed, a scene of doomsday. "Something will definitely happen tonight."

In such a thick fog, time seems to have lost its meaning, and it is impossible to distinguish between day and night. After all, Zhang Qizheng's body is still in the room, so tonight everyone chose to stay in Grandpa's room for the night.

A lot of firewood was picked up, and the fire was burning vigorously. Everyone gathered together to bake the remaining cakes and swallowed them with the water in the water bag.

Shao Tong still looked out of place with the whole team. He sat alone a little further away from the fire, with his back against the wall, his face slightly drooping, hidden in the shadows.

After so many things happened during the day, although everyone was tired, they still persevered and cheered up. Time passed in silence. At first, the fat man occasionally added a few firewood, but later, as his eyelids became heavier, he finally tilted his head and fell asleep completely.

"Crack--"

"Crack--"

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Cheng was awakened by a strange sound. When he opened his eyes, there was darkness in front of him.

The fire went out unconsciously, and a rotten smell floated in the air. Jiang Cheng knew that the dream had come again.

But the difference this time was that everyone around him was there. Fatty Tang Qisheng and others had obviously woken up earlier than Jiang Cheng. They hid behind the door, looking out through the crack with nervous faces. Jiang Cheng came closer, and the scene in the yard made him open his eyes wide.
