Chapter 14: Selection
In fact, Han Dong''s initial idea was to use his "imitation" ability to gain a deeper understanding of the events and characters in the film Sinister.
Little did he know that this negotiation would unexpectedly open a branching event.
Han Dong didn''t particrly care about the fate cards mentioned in the branching rewards... After all, he still didn''t know if he would survive the event.
What he valued more was the rtionship between the characters.
If chosen correctly and done properly, he might be able to greatly gain ''intimacy'' with the characters of the event and even make them his right-hand men.
The conversation with Chen Li ended.
Han Dong, who returned to his dorm room, removed his disguise and fell into contemtion.
In fact, this time, in addition to understanding the nature of the movie and the rtionship between the event characters, a major issue was also brought up from it.
Since both the Wang couple and Chen Li''s sister and brother were normal humans, who were the ''evil spirits''?
Two possibilities.
First, the event character turns into an evil spirit after death.
Second, the evil spirit wanders this wilderness and has nothing to do with the incident character.
However, the first possibility was extremely slim.
Because, Bald Derrion had been killedst night... This bald man was so big and strong that if he was attacked by an ordinary person, it was impossible for him to die without making a sound.
The probability was that it was killed by a mysterious evil spirit.
"Wait!"
The faces of the rest of the squad suddenly shed in Han Dong''s mind.
"There''s a third possibility... If I assume that there were only five humans from the Holy City who were involved in the Destiny event in the beginning, the real ''evil spirits'' might have been involved in the beginning as the The ''Sixth Man'' is mixed between us."
For some reason, Han Dong''s intuition told him that the third scenario was on the higher end of the spectrum.
"If that''s the case, if I want to survive with a body like mine, I must make full use of this branching event... to pull together rtionships with the event characters."
In this direction Han Dong decided on a course of action.
With more than an hour remaining before the ''Return Ceremony'', Edward and the others were also still exploring the surrounding area, with the drawing of a brief map.
Han Dong reverted back to his original appearance and headed to the first floor as the true identity of ''Nichs'' to once again meet with [Sinister Chen Li].
Chen Li''s original n was to scare the group of college students away beforehand, and then make a move on the Wang couple.
Thus, when Han Dong arrived at the first floor lobby alone, Chen Li was sitting on a chair with her cape on.
The kitchen knife was in her hand.
Ka!
Han Dong stepped into the hall as he voluntarily closed the wooden door, adjusting his own emotions while entering a kind of ''acting'' state.
"Miss Chen... my name is Nichs Valen, I''d like to talk to you about a matter that has to do with ''Granny Wang''."
Han Dong deliberately leaned close to Chen Li, staring at the kitchen knife in her hand the entire time.
"I''m different from them, I''m of mixed Chinese and foreign descent, and my mother is also from Kyushu... This shooting was also proposed and organized by me.
The purpose is to reveal the true nature of the granny and bring her to justice.
But...I''m not happy about it! Without solid evidence, she can only be imprisoned for a period of time, which does nothing to offset the consequences of her crimes.
My mother was once killed by granny Wang."
Han Dong''s expressions were in ce in every aspect during his speech.
This kind of emotional camouge was often used by Han Dong in gatherings with other teachers in the faculty from time to time.
To be honest, Han Dong didn''t like being around people...but due to his work, he had to participate in various gatherings and social gatherings.
Being an overseas Chinese himself, in order not to be ostracized by other teachers in the university, Han Dong must put on a warm, polite and friendly appearance.
Chen Li''s expression remained unchanged, "You want her to... just disappear, right?"
Han Dong looked surprised and pretended not to know that Chen Li also hated this matter of the granny Wang: "Miss Chen Li, You?"
"Me? Do you think I really paid an olddy to exorcise me? Haha...no kidding, if it wasn''t for you guys, granny Wang and the others would have disappearedst night?
That''s better! Originally, I was still considering how to ''fix'' your group of college students who were suddenly inserted into the n."
"Then... "Han Dong tried to draw out Chen Li''s n.
" Granny Wang''s arrival here has already sealed her fate. You just need to leave with your friends and go back to waiting for her death."
Han Dong immediately replied, "No problem!"
As good as Han Dong''s acting was, Chen Li was wary...and didn''t say the n directly.
In her heart, her brother Daqing was the only person she could trust.
"Why do you want to help us?"
Han Dong shrugged his shoulders and made a helpless expression, "Help you? No...I''m just trying to give Granny Wang what they deserve...the sooner the better!"
For a moment, there was no sound in the hall.
About two minutes passed....
Chen Li didn''t see any w or false intent in Han Dong''s eyes, putting down the kitchen knife and whispering: "That''s fine... If everything is fine with the n, my brother will let the granny''s vehicle have problems, and they will still be staying in the bungalow tonight.
There will be a certainxative in the drinking water given to the two tonight.
My brother and I will do it at thetrine.
You are only responsible for keeping an eye on your ssmates and not letting them leave their rooms in the middle of the night, let alone go near thetrine.
The next day, you will only need to exin to yourpanions that the granny and her husband have returned to the vige early in the morning because their car was repaired. My brother will then hire a car to take you back to town."
"All right!"
Just as Han Dong agreed.
With incredible speed, Chen Li suddenly lunged forward.
Faces suddenly leaned close to Han Dong, their faces close together...lips whispering in Han Dong''s ear.
"If one of youes near thetrine tonight and finds out about this...you''ll only be killed along with them, is that understood?"
"No problem."
The negotiation was sessful.
Han Dong chose to assist ''sister and brother'' in this branch mission.
The reason was simple.
The sister and brother who were desperate and bent on revenge, but still had a certain amount of good intentions but didn''t want to bring cmity to this group of college students.
They are definitely more ''useful'' than the granny and her husband who spread rumors against their conscience.
The two of them will run away as soon as their lives are at stake, no matter how much they are helped by any person who only cares about his or her interests.
There was no value in getting on good terms with the two.
And so, not long after Han Dong returned to his room.
When the time came, Granny Wang summoned everyone to Room 6 and had [Sinister Chen Li] lie down on the bed.
The ''Returning Man Ceremony'' was opened.
Due to Han Dong''s intervention, the plot of the movie changed.
Chen Li, who was prepared to go insane during the ceremony, chose to lie safely on the bed and wait for the three-hour ''Returning Ceremony'' to end.
Forcing herself to drink the talismanic water made by the granny, she smiled afterwards, pretending that the evil in her body had been exorcised.
''Ritual Sess''
Da Qing''s acting skills also surprised Han Dong.
He knelt down while hugging granny Wang''s thigh, shouting ''benefactor'' with a snotty nose and tears, and also handed over the fee for the ceremony he had prepared.
After a short break and lunch, the couple did not stay long.
Han Dong and the others were restricted by not being able to leave the mountain resort.
It was said that they needed to wait until Chen Li had fully recovered and ask her how she felt during the ''Returning Ceremony'' before the filming would beplete.
With that, the grandmother and her husband came back first.
Of course... Da Qing had privately tampered with the couple''s van.
In less than an hour, the five-hour drive back on foot was impossible due to the car breaking down en route...the couple had to return to the mountain vige and call the town''s repair team toe over.
The first step of the ''revenge'' n was sessful.
Time came to the second night of the abandoned farmhouse....
