Chapter 142 Invisible Hand

The inadvertently spoken words seemed to touch Yuan Xiaoyi's most sensitive nerve, making her feel terrible all over.

"Xiaoyi," Jiang Cheng immediately comforted, "You have something else to tell me, don't you?"

"Senior, you are really amazing. I only heard about these things later." Yuan Xiaoyi lowered her voice, "There's something wrong with the last footage taken by the street corner surveillance."

"The footage does show a drunken man returning from the direction of the school, but the man's posture is very strange. In short, he doesn't look like a normal person, or even someone drunk. The man is floating, and... and his eyes are actually closed!"

Yuan Xiaoyi's words were full of strangeness, but Jiang Cheng seemed to understand something, and he had noticed a very strange point before.

The man returned from the direction of the school, and instead of falling earlier or later, he "happened" to collapse right under the surveillance camera.

Moreover, according to Yuan Xiaoyi's description, although the video was taken late at night, it was quite clear.

One coincidence is not strange, but when various coincidences are intertwined, it feels as if something is deliberately framing the man.

"The police also noticed the strangeness in this. In the end, they took the video for analysis and compared it with the previous video of the man leaving for school, and they found something strange."

"At the same location, using the same street lamp as a reference, the man's height appeared to be higher the second time, the contrast was very obvious."

Thinking of the man's floating steps, the fence he couldn't climb over, the disappearing footprints, the strangely increased height, and the closed eyes...

A bold and shocking guess took shape in Jiang Cheng's mind.

No, it should be said to be a certainty.

"Senior, you thought of it too, right?" Yuan Xiaoyi said with a trembling voice, "This man... he didn't walk by himself, he was being carried."

"There is an invisible hand behind the man, carrying him, so he was able to go back and forth in such a short time, and also climb over the fence without leaving any traces."

"Because he wasn't walking at all." Yuan Xiaoyi said with a tearful voice, "He was simply flying. There was something carrying him and flying!"

"The case was also committed by that thing controlling him, he didn't want to do it at all."

"It was also that thing that killed Meng Y眠 (Meng Yu Mian), it was also the one who dug out the eyes, it was all it! This man is also a victim!"

Yuan Xiaoyi became more and more excited as she spoke. Jiang Cheng held her shoulders and finally hugged her. "Xiaoyi," Jiang Cheng embraced her and slowly patted her back, "Don't be afraid, I'm here. I won't allow anyone or anything to hurt you, unless they step over my dead body."

Jiang Cheng was serious when he said this, because if something happened to Yuan Xiaoyi, they could commit suicide and the mission would end directly.

But Yuan Xiaoyi obviously didn't think so. She was just a very ordinary girl who was even called a lunatic at school, and everyone avoided her.

"Senior," Yuan Xiaoyi hugged Jiang Cheng tightly, tears streaming down her face, "I'm scared, I don't want to die, and I don't want anything to happen to you, but I don't want to... don't want to see Xiaolin and the others..."

This scene in the woods happened to be seen by Gao Yan, "What are they doing? Didn't we agree to get information out of her? How did it turn into this?"

Looking at this passionate scene, if they were in another place, it would be R-rated.

"Easy." Fatty looked at Gao Yan with disdain, as if saying, "What's this? You country bumpkin, learn from me." He clapped his hands in a strange tone and said, "This is normal. If anyone disagrees, they can go up and pull them apart. See if Yuan Xiaoyi slaps you."

Seeing that Gao Yan was quite angry, he really didn't dare to go. If Jiang Cheng said that he interrupted his thoughts and forgot the clues, he would have no place to cry.

Now anyone can see that whoever wins over Yuan Xiaoyi is equivalent to mastering first-hand information. Jiang Cheng is much better than them in this regard.

Gao Yan looked at Jiang Cheng and Yuan Xiaoyi hugging each other, and seriously suspected that this guy might be a professional.

"It's always good to have more skills." Huai Yi watched Jiang Cheng and Yuan Xiaoyi from afar and sighed, "Brother Jiang has really figured out this path."

Jiang Cheng, who was fighting hard, naturally had no time and no mood to consider what the people outside were thinking. He now only wanted to know what the monster stories about Xiaolin were like, and how to survive.

"Xiaoyi, are you feeling better?" Jiang Cheng asked softly, "You're squeezing me so hard I can't breathe."

Hearing this, Yuan Xiaoyi's arms around Jiang Cheng trembled, and then, as if embarrassed, she slowly withdrew them.

"Tonight, I must go and help you rescue Xiaolin. Don't try to dissuade me." Jiang Cheng said heroically.

"I will prove to everyone in the school that they are the ones with the problem, not you, Xiaoyi!"

"Senior, I know I can't dissuade you. You are a good person, but you must be careful." Yuan Xiaoyi looked at Jiang Cheng's face, "The red-clothed woman mentioned in Xiaolin's monster story is this Meng Y眠 (Meng Yu Mian)."

"The monster story mentions that Meng Y眠 (Meng Yu Mian), because she was unwilling, turned into a fiend in red, and would wander around the abandoned playground at night."

Jiang Cheng had already thought of this, but he was now more curious about what happened to the man who was regarded as the murderer.

Regarding this, Yuan Xiaoyi explained, "Just when the police noticed the abnormality and were preparing to investigate further, news came from the police station that the man was dead."

"Dead?"

"Yes, the man died in a very small room, inside the police station. He behaved strangely the night he died, constantly pounding on the door in the middle of the night, shouting and screaming, saying that there was more than one person in his room, that there was someone else, and asking the police to help him drive the other person out!"

"But the room was so small, you could see through it at a glance. Where would another person come from?"

"However, out of other considerations, the police on duty still switched him to another room. This time, they even specially arranged for a policeman to guard him all night."

"But just after midnight, he started making noise again, saying incoherent things that were terrifying."

"He actually told the guard that another person had appeared in the room, that the person had come again, was looking at him, and was getting closer and closer."

"When the guard asked him where the person was, he actually pointed to the ceiling, his face full of horror, saying that the person was standing there, how could you all not see him?"

"In the middle of the night, the police on duty were so frightened by him that their hearts were pounding, so they went out to call for help. But in less than two minutes, when they came back, the man was already dead."

"His neck was just straight back, his eyes staring at the ceiling. It is said that his pupils were especially wide open, which scared the police who rushed over."

Yuan Xiaoyi whispered, "Everyone is spreading rumors in private that the man was scared to death."
