Chapter Seven, Midnight Zero

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

According to the script, Ye Xiang has only a little more than half an hour left to live

What happened

Luo Haosheng appeared somewhat suspicious, and then he also showed a look of confusion. This is a requirement of the script; the male protagonist sees the driver die in a dream, and when this becomes reality, it is only natural for him to feel bewildered. Recalling the words of that old beggar adds a touch of horror to the situation

Is the driver... ... dead now?

At this moment, Ye was on the verge of collapse. On the other side, Du Yan also struck the car window with a powerful punch, even causing blood to be drawn.

At that moment, he immediately looked towards the driver's seat

And naturally, Luo Haosheng "discovered" his peculiarity and immediately pressed on, "Xia Yun, do you know something?"

Suddenly, in the darkness, a figure in front of the driver's seat began to rise upright! Looking at that figure, it seemed to be the driver! ... He held his breath even more, knowing that perhaps in the next moment ... he would encounter a real ghost. ... Not a false ghost portrayed by actors in a horror film, but a truly terrifying spirit

In the protagonist's team, two individuals will die in the second act. The first person is Du Yan. The second person is Xia Yun

At this moment, Ye's face was ashen!

In the darkness, he suddenly glanced sideways and discovered that Jiang Youlin had also woken up! Aside from this, the other few people seemed to be falling asleep. Meanwhile, the male lead, Luo Haosheng, was constantly tossing and turning, clearly immersed in a nightmare as the script described.

Because ... ...

Because ... ...

Ye wanted to bite her lower lip, feeling sweat continuously pouring out from her body, especially feeling a chill under her armpits

The content of the new script... is actually like this

"Is there really not a single witness?" Luo Haosheng asked again, "Is everyone asleep?"

At that moment, the female tour guide had a look of fear that seemed on the verge of tears, and her performance was quite convincing. "I... I mean... what should we do? I have been leading tour groups for so many years, and I have never encountered such a situation before..."

His gaze towards Ye Xiang was clearly filled with sympathy

The information is extremely clear, and even the slightest detail can be accessed, leaving absolutely no room for oversight

He is currently looking at the driver's corpse, pondering whether the driver had anything to restrain the ghost. If not, where did he find the courage to stay on the bus? Or perhaps the item meant to restrain the ghost was not powerful enough, which led to his death? In any case, if such an item truly exists, Ye Xiang must obtain it!

At this moment, he is thinking that the driver must have been well-prepared for not fleeing, and he must certainly possess that cursed weapon on him

At this moment, Ye suddenly thought of a certain possibility... That is...! ... Did Jiang Youlin see something that only she could see?! Perhaps she is a seasoned actress; could it be that she possesses what is known as the yin-yang eye?

It is him

Inside the car, there were not many young girls; the majority of the women were middle-aged or elderly. Therefore, when the body was discovered, although there were screams, they did not last long. Ye particularly noticed that Zhang Dekun and Jiang Yi had not returned. At this moment, Liu An, wearing a duckbill cap, was staring intently at the driver's corpse

Act One, concluded here

Ye wanted to lower his head slightly, revealing just a bit of it, to look in the direction of the driver's seat. However, it was shrouded in darkness, and nothing could be seen clearly

At this moment, Ye's legs began to tremble. For anyone who has grown up in a materialistic world, suddenly finding themselves in a horror movie setting and having a close encounter with real ghosts, being able to remain calm without fainting is already a testament to their strong psychological resilience. This is especially true considering that he had made ample psychological preparations and that there were many others in the car with him

"No one approach the crime scene!" Luo Haosheng shouted loudly, "This is a murder case!"

There are indeed witnesses, and not just one. However, since the script does not allow them to speak, Ye naturally sees no need to take unnecessary actions. At this moment, the lights in the car are brightly lit, and with so many people gathered together, his inner fear has also dissipated considerably.

He held his breath, waiting for time to pass second by second, yet his body dared not move at all

Many passengers witnessed this scene and then, as per the script, let out a collective scream

The tour guide, along with the male and female protagonists and others, gathered around the driver's corpse, discussing matters such as calling the police, but there was no signal on their mobile phones

In the driver's seat, there is a profound silence. The time displayed on the phone also reads 11:59.

At this moment, Kang Xueyan slightly examined the corpse and said: "It appears that there are no external injuries, and the blood seems to have flowed from the seven orifices. Could it be poisoning? There are also no signs of a struggle in the vicinity"

Ye wishes to die in the second act next

In the next moment, he suddenly heard the driver’s body crash heavily to the ground, followed by intense struggles. In contrast, Luo Haosheng, sitting in the front, was also struggling, likely indicating that the nightmare had reached a critical moment. When he awakens, he would see that terrifying scene just as scripted, wouldn't he

After a long while, the driver returned to the driver's seat once again

Who is calling...

Subsequently, a surge of vast information flooded into Ye's mind, as the script details of the second act were instantly delivered to his consciousness

Did the driver die? Did he not die?

Ye felt his heart racing uncontrollably at this moment; he had never experienced such tension and fear in his life. At that moment, his gaze shifted to Jiang Youlin beside him, and he noticed that her hand was pointing diagonally towards a certain position in front of them. Moreover, her finger was trembling slightly

At this moment, Ye Xiang also realized that her body was trembling violently, clearly indicating a considerable amount of fear. However, when she glanced in the direction she pointed to, there was nothing unusual at all.

Only then did the figure begin to gradually stand up and slowly walk. The darkness suddenly flickered with a spark, illuminating the face of the person, which indeed was the face of the driver. It turned out he had used a lighter to ignite a cigarette. That light was, of course, fleeting.

Jiang Youlin's gaze occasionally swept towards him, and when their eyes met, both understood each other's intentions. Given the current circumstances, they could only continue to observe.

The protagonist is always the most outstanding person, and those around him naturally act in accordance with him. Luo Haosheng then said: "Everyone must not approach the scene! A murder has just occurred, and it is essential to investigate thoroughly... Did anyone witness the events leading up to this?"

The moment the headlights were turned on, Luo Haosheng immediately looked towards the driver's seat. The driver was slumped over, his face covered in blood, with his hand resting on the switch for the headlights.

At this moment, Luo Haosheng had already rushed ahead to the front of the corpse and began to examine it.

And the sound of the struggling driver suddenly ceased at that moment. Immediately, a loud scream was heard, which was emitted by Luo Haosheng, who had just awakened from a nightmare

Then, he said according to the lines of the second act script: "No... no, there isn't. I just... saw the driver die so tragically..."

Ye hurriedly put on a look of hesitation, as required by the script

Zhang Nianzhu clearly felt relieved upon seeing that he did not have to die in the second act. He patted Ye Xiang's shoulder and began to deliver his lines: "What happened? Did the driver die?"

Suddenly waking up, Ye was surprised to find that he had actually slept for such a long time

He now holds his head with both hands, wishing that time would pass more quickly. He hopes that the driver can use the powerful weapon to eliminate that ghost, so that he can rush out after everything is over and seize that thing. If he dies, then it would be even easier to take it.

Suddenly, the car lights were turned on. The scream awakened many passengers, including Zhang Nianzhu and Du Yan.

Suddenly, he changed his mind and thought, the driver is not an idiot; knowing that he would die, he would certainly use the redemption ticket to escape. How could he possibly stay in place?

Driver, has he already died? After all, with such a small time discrepancy, it is very likely that midnight has already passed.

At this moment, Ye felt a sense of unease. The script for the first act made no mention of Xia Yunxing witnessing the terrifying image of the driver lighting a cigarette, which was a crucial plot point that should not have been overlooked. Moreover, he was clearly not tired yet fell asleep, and when he later awoke, it seemed to be due to the anxiety that had kept him from sleeping peacefully. Could it be that a change in his own storyline would directly affect the script of the second act? He was clearly not tired yet fell asleep, and when he later awoke, it seemed to be due to the anxiety that had kept him from sleeping peacefully. Could it be that a change in his own storyline would directly affect the script of the second act?

At this moment, his thoughts have begun to become somewhat chaotic. After all, it is not surprising; anyone encountering such a situation would be unable to restrain themselves.
