MTL - I’m Flirting with a Man in the Supernatural World-Chapter 88 Villa Fright (10)
Chu Huai and Jin Tianyi met each other's eyes, each with a serious look on their faces.
It is absolutely impossible for a dead person to be killed by a ghost at this time.
The two rushed downstairs, Jin Tianyi went to examine Gao Yuan's body, Chu Huai put aside his doubts for the time being, and quietly looked at Luo Ziyang and the fat man, sizing them up carefully.
Luo Ziyang met him with a scrutinizing gaze, but the fat man lowered his head in a panic, with his toes turned outward, subconsciously wanting to escape.
Luo Ziyang's palms were dripping with sweat. He didn't want Chu Huai and Jin Tianyi to discover his filth and evilness, so he explained the situation calmly, and after he finished speaking, he called out to Fatty, "Is that what I said? What's so special about you?" Did you find it?"
The fat man was in a state of confusion, and was so frightened that he almost jumped up when he was called out suddenly. He didn't hear what he asked, and said indiscriminately: "I, I don't know anything! Really!"
Luo Ziyang secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
The gazes of Chu Huai and Jin Tianyi met in the air, and they each blinked, obviously having an answer.
Xiao Luo's reaction was self-evident. Looking at the essence through the phenomenon, the fat man has no motivation, but Xiao Luo has.
Chu Huai lowered his eyes and stared at his index finger, smiled awkwardly for a while, his mood was a little complicated for a moment, he didn't know whether he should be moved to tears, or he should wake him up viciously.
He was obviously very angry, but he didn't even have the right to be angry.
How could someone be so selfless and stupid?
Luo Ziyang wrung his hands: "Xiao Ling, Sister Shen, why don't you speak?"
The fat man seemed to be afraid that Luo Ziyang would be dissatisfied, and he was still muttering: "I was woken up by Brother Luo's screams, just, what Brother Luo said..."
Everyone's expressions froze instantly.
Chu Huai's heart skipped a beat.
Fatty lost his mind and forgot that he was acting, and he was talking about..."Brother Luo".
The fat man didn't realize that Jin Tianyi reacted very quickly, pretending to be furious and punching him in the face.
"Shut up! Useless trash! What a waste of words!"
The fat man was overwhelmed, his eyes stared at him, he managed to stand still while leaning on the sofa, and instantly became sober.
However, it was too late, and the next second, everyone's eyes were bloodshot.
After the blood red disappeared, the fat man fell straight on the ground, his eyes closed tightly, and there was an extremely thin, almost invisible line of blood in the layers of flesh on his neck.
In a blink of an eye, a living person just disappeared.
Luo Ziyang gasped for breath, terrified.
The words in blood suddenly appeared in the minds of the remaining people—"Actor Jin Wenzhou appeared in the play, which made the director dissatisfied and was replaced."
Change…? Looking at this word, Chu Huai felt uneasy.
In the scene of seven people, Fatty died due to his own mistakes, and the scene was vacant, but the director couldn't directly delete this character, after all, so many shots have been made before.
Sure enough, the scarlet words continued—"The previous part was cut off, and his unfinished role was taken over by the stand-in ghost. I wish the remaining three actors a happy performance."
ghost? Luo Ziyang's eyes widened.
An accident happened, and the "fat man" on the ground suddenly opened his eyes and stared straight at the three standing people.
With a calm expression, Jin Tianyi stood in front of Chu Huai. Luo Ziyang staggered back.
"Fatty" got up neatly, and showed his jagged yellow teeth towards them, as if he was smiling.
The alarm bell rang in Chu Huai's heart, and now there was another object to beware of.
The film has a great degree of freedom, and the actors have a lot of room to play while playing their roles well. How will this stand-in ghost play?
Their occupant's goal is to survive until the end of the film and leave, but the stand-in ghost is not.
It is a variable. For the "wonderfulness" of the play in a certain sense, he will connect with the so-called director and secretly trip them up.
"I was woken up by Di Yu's screams, just like what Di Yu said..." The stand-in ghost mechanically repeated Fatty's previous words.
Jin Tianyi entered the scene the fastest, pretending that nothing had happened, stepped forward and gave Luo Ziyang a hug with loyalty, and comforted him with words: "I didn't expect your girlfriend to 'accidentally' die here, it's okay, little girl." Yu, you and me and Sister Shen, we will always be with you."
Luo Ziyang froze and wanted to run away in panic, the boss clearly knew what he said!
He looked at Chu Huai who was standing not far away, Chu Huai smiled lightly at him, his eyes were black and white, full of acceptance and understanding, and with silent comfort, he made a clear statement.
Luo Ziyang's eyes turned red instantly.
Yes, smart as Jiaojiao and Boss, how could he hide it from them?
Even if he is like this, they still choose to accept themselves...
Luo Ziyang looked like a child who did something wrong, and it took him a while to get to the point, and said: "I saw a pair of eyes in the car before, just now I got up to go to the bathroom in a hurry, and counted the paintings on the wall on the second floor, and found that there were too many of them. With both eyes, I realized that someone had an accident."
His mention of this just reminded Chu Huai that he and Jin Tianyi saw a pair of eyes in the car before.
Jin Tianyi was slightly surprised: "You saw it too? Do you remember when it was?"
Luo Ziyang tried hard to recall, and after talking for a long time, it was almost the same as when Chu Huai and the others met.
Therefore, it can almost be concluded that the eyes monitoring Luo Ziyang and the others are not the same as him and Jin Tianyi.
Chu Huai raised his hand with one hand: "At that time, everyone is still alive, and no one becomes an eye. Then whose eyes are these?"
"And there are more than one pair." Jin Tianyi frowned, remained silent for a moment, and said something they had been ignoring, "There is more than one ghost in the villa."
Chu Huai was shocked.
It was a ghost who dragged Xia Yu into the toilet. They couldn't see the ghost's appearance clearly. The one who killed Zhang Yan was a long-haired ghost on TV. The two may not be the same, but the ghost who attacked Jin Tianyi was definitely not the same. The one on TV.
Chu Huai suddenly said: "Could it be, there are seven of them."
He expressed his guess: "There were no eyes in the painting at the beginning. Can we assume that the painting actually has eyes? The painting is like the residence of the eyes. The eyes temporarily leave the painting to complete some kind of 'task'. Those seven pairs of eyes were lurking in the villa, or even before we even entered the villa, they were secretly watching us in a corner around us..."
Luo Ziyang swallowed: "Then why do we have more eyes in the painting every time we die? Doesn't this mean that the eyes of our dead people occupy the place of the original eyes..."
Luo Ziyang was extremely puzzled.
Chu Huai smiled: "You've got the point."
Jin Tianyi said: "Have you ever heard a fable about the ferry before? It was said that an old man on the ferry didn't want to take the ferry, so when the next guest came up, he managed to give the oar to the guest and slipped away by himself. I can only replace him and become the new ferryman, but he doesn't want to do this kind of drudgery, so he does the same to trap the next guest who needs to cross the shore."
Luo Ziyang finally understood: "You want to say that those eyes are the old man in the fable, and we are the guests!"
Chu Huai: "Yes, I can't tell. When all seven of us die here, the seven ghosts will complete some kind of 'mission' and be completely liberated. We will become new ferrymen with ulterior motives. Wait quietly. The arrival of a guest will entrap him."
Luo Ziyang shrunk his neck subconsciously, looking shocked.
What Chu Huai said was euphemistic, but the meaning was right. Luo Ziyang thought about it and it was true. If seven of them died and their eyes were locked in the painting, wouldn't they take over the duties of the seven ghosts?
If "Villa Fright" starts shooting again soon, are they the seven ghosts who will kill the next seven residents?
Luo Ziyang: "So the ones attacking us now are the seven people who died in the last batch who don't know when?"
Chu Huai smiled lightly and nodded, this guess is almost inseparable.
These seven people may not be residents, but may also be left over from the extension of the root of the curse.
And it is very likely to satisfy the characteristics of each of the seven of them. Such as jealousy, greed, rage.
Substitute ghost: "This is just your guess..."
Chu Huai looked at him with strange eyes, suddenly had an idea, smiled, and happily expressed that he agreed with his opinion, then raised his eyebrows at Jin Tianyi, meaning to point out.
Jin Tianyi was only stunned for a few seconds, and then returned him with a meaningful smile, obviously thinking of going together.
Fatty is not a resident now, but a substitute ghost. They...don't feel guilty about killing ghosts.
Instead of keeping this time bomb, it is better to strike first.
The degree of freedom in the film is so high, and the motive for killing is not just a matter of making up a mouthful. In this kind of horror film that is very likely to be unsolvable, it is too easy to kill an "actor" reasonably.
You can even pretend to kill someone by mistake, and then feel guilty, which doesn't violate the personality.
If you don't have a motive, you can make up your own motive, do it yourself, you have everything.
The stand-in ghost is still digesting the task from "above", thinking about how to reasonably lead the residents to death, completely unaware of the consensus reached by Chu Huai and Jin Tianyi in less than ten seconds.
The stand-in ghost lowered his eyes, and there was a cold and strange light in his pupils.
…
So, half an hour later, at dawn, Chu Huai threw away the knife blade stained with ghost blood in his hand in shock and grief, and staggered back, leaning his back against the cold wall, trying to squeeze out some unbelievable tears, staring at the ground murmured: "I didn't mean it... I, you suddenly appeared behind me, I, I thought it was a ghost! I was self-defense! I..."
"Xiao Ling..." Chu Huai looked at Jin Tianyi who was holding a blood wrench.
In fact, while it was still dark, he yelled that there was a ghost just now, and then Jin Tianyi slammed the back of the head of the stand-in ghost with great cooperation, knocking him out, and he stabbed the ghost again worriedly.
After being abused for more than twenty hours, Chu Huai stared at the body of the stand-in ghost, inexplicably feeling the pleasure of taking revenge on the world.
The stand-in ghost on the ground died and his eyes were still wide open, full of disbelief and resentment.
Chu Huai and Jin Tianyi plundered and suspended the role of the character "Jin Wenzhou", and the character officially died, so naturally the ghost as a stand-in could not continue to stay in the film.
When Luo Ziyang rushed over after hearing the commotion, he saw Jin Tianyi hugging Chu Huai on the sofa and comforting him with gentle words.
"Sister Shen, it's not your fault, nor my fault. If there is retribution, it will be retribution on me."
"I believe he won't blame us for being underground."
Seeing Luo Ziyang, Chu Huai hurriedly struggled out with a weary expression: "I accidentally killed someone, I'm sorry."
Jin Tianyi lowered his eyelids, and had a good attitude of admitting his mistake: "I am also responsible for this matter, I'm sorry."
Luo Ziyang: "..." Why does he think this is not the case?
Why in the blink of an eye, these two people have already solved such a big problem behind his back...
The morning light is faint, and Sunday morning arrives. There are still more than ten hours before leaving the film.
Just as the three were about to breathe a sigh of relief, an earthquake-like sound came from the ground, and then, the floor of the living room they were in sank!
Like the hole in Alice in Wonderland, they fell into it together with the sofa.
