Chapter 419 Don't Move
How could this happen?
Things began to deviate from the initial prediction. Jiang Cheng originally thought that Lin Chen was not aware of what Li Maoshen and others had done. An accident occurred during a certain filming, which led to Lin Chen's death.
But now it seems that Lin Chen not only knows about the relationship between Li Maoshen and Yu Youwei, but also clearly knows the filming they planned.
She had secretly read Li Maoshen's diary, and even when they gathered together to discuss the plan, Lin Chen stood outside the window and watched them silently.
She was fully aware of the scam!
But why?
Why didn't she choose to expose it, or resist?
An ominous atmosphere fermented in Jiang Cheng's heart, and he vaguely felt that this matter was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
The diary started on May 7th. Li Maoshen complained that the platform did not allow him to play edge balls, and the videos he shot were not popular, so he planned to create a hit video.
In this way, it was not until June 10th that he really prepared everything and started filming.
During this process, Li Maoshen's tone in the diary gave people the feeling of being very motivated, but just two days later, Li Maoshen's expression in the diary changed.
In the first shooting, there was a problem with the lighting, but it can be seen that Li Maoshen did not take it seriously at this time and felt that it was no big problem.
Then, in the second shooting, Li Maoshen began to hesitate in his diary, seemingly encountering some incomprehensible trouble.
In the third scene, after returning from the shooting, Li Maoshen's emotions were difficult to calm down. They photographed a black figure, but it was not their people, and Song Xiaoyou, who pretended to be a ghost, had not appeared yet.
In the fourth scene, things developed in a more bizarre direction. Yu Youwei, who pretended to be a ghost, encountered an extremely terrifying thing when she was scaring Lin Chen.
She said that she was hiding under the bed and someone grabbed her feet. She also said that Lin Chen was not right. Her head could turn behind her instantly, and from the front and back, she had no face and hair on both sides!
Although Li Maoshen said that his accomplices wanted to use this as an excuse to ask for more money, his body was still very honest and ran to the temple to worship.
Jiang Cheng's eyes changed slightly. It seemed that they had encountered a ghost during the filming.
And it started from the first scene.
Could it be that
Just when Jiang Cheng hesitated, he saw Lin Chen beside him suddenly move. She slowly put down the diary in her hand, then lowered her head and covered her face with her hands.
Jiang Cheng did not hear the sound of sobbing. He just saw Lin Chen's thin body huddled together and trembled slightly. The scene was inexplicably distressing.
It was unclear how long it had been. The darkness around gave Jiang Cheng a sense of crisis. Lin Chen in front of him finally stopped.
She slowly stood up, took a large glass of water in the kitchen, and then walked back to the bedroom. She pulled open the pillow that Jiang Cheng had slept on before. Under the pillow was a white plastic bottle.
Unscrewing the plastic bottle, Lin Chen poured out a handful of pills.
It was a tranquilizer.
For most people, it is a type of sleeping pill that is more widely used.
After a long period of torture, Lin Chen finally chose this desperate path. She had collapsed and hoped to end it all through death.
Jiang Cheng subconsciously walked up and wanted to take the pills from her hand.
But a strange scene happened. His hand actually passed through Lin Chen's body without any hindrance.
Once, twice, Jiang Cheng wanted to stop her, but he couldn't do it at all. At this time, Lin Chen was like a holographic projection.
He and Lin Chen were not in the same time and space at all. He was a traveler who came here after a long journey. He could only watch things happen, but he didn't have the power to change.
This was very similar to a nightmare.
No matter what they did in the nightmare, no matter how well they did, they couldn't change the established facts. The past couldn't be changed. All they could do was to let themselves live as much as possible.
But Jiang Cheng reached into his pocket and thought of the painting.
The painting left by Lin Chen himself.
Maybe that painting could stop all this.
Let her understand how terrible things would happen if she died. The man in black was Lin Chen's creation. In a sense, Lin Chen was the source of everything.
She would never understand what kind of terrible monster her despair had created, and the endless, hair-raising weird stories.
Using Wu's good side to dispel Lin Chen's despair was the only way to break the deadlock.
But just as he touched the painting and was about to take it out and show it to Lin Chen——
"Don't move." A deep voice came over.
When Jiang Cheng heard the voice, he stopped immediately. He recognized the owner of the voice.
It was Wu.
At this moment, a dark shadow stood behind him a few meters away, on the small balcony.
The hem of the black windbreaker was torn by the wind from time to time, and the thin figure stood there, like a battle flag stuck in the ground.
Under the brim of the hat, there was a pair of scarlet eyes.
Jiang Cheng's fingers holding the painting moved slightly.
But the next second, he heard the sound of a knife coming out of its sheath.
It is hard to describe what this feeling is like. The knife has not been unsheathed yet, but the chill has spread. The breath brought by the blade is suffocating him.
With his back to the man in black, Jiang Cheng slowly pulled his hand out of his pocket, and then raised it up wisely, "Don't be like this, brother." Jiang Cheng said, "We can discuss it."
He also considered the possibility of taking out the painting instantly and then waking up Lin Chen, but after thinking about it, he still felt that saving his life was more important, and keeping the green mountains alive would not be afraid of running out of firewood.
In just a dozen seconds, Lin Chen had swallowed a handful of sleeping pills.
Jiang Cheng watched her thin figure sitting on the bedside, and she gradually lost consciousness and fell on the bed.
"She died a long time ago, right?" Jiang Cheng looked at the poor woman in front of him, and said calmly, "You saved her after she died for the first time."
Things gradually became clear. The time shown on the electronic clock on the wall confirmed that the real Lin Chen had died long before the filming, and died of suicide by taking an overdose of sleeping pills.
But after her death, she was resurrected by some strange power.
No need to guess, this is the work of the guy behind her.
After waking up, she was still using the previous body. Although there was nothing wrong with the appearance, the inside of the body was gradually rotting.
This is why the autopsy report issued by the police came to such a conclusion.
At the same time, Lin Chen also lost the memory of that part of his death, but later, the arrival of the police reawakened everything.
So Lin Chen couldn't accept himself like this, his emotions collapsed again, and he chose to jump off the balcony.
This is what ordinary people understand, the real time of Lin Chen's death.
As for the abnormalities that occurred during the filming, it was because Lin Chen was already dead at that time, so he naturally mastered some of the ghost's abilities.
People pretend to be ghosts and scare ghosts pretending to be people. Jiang Cheng thought that Li Maoshen was really a talent.
