Global Dungeon: My Support Is Too Strong Webnovel - Chapter 664
664 Predict the Future
The three of them left the hotel.
After a while, Fang Xiaoxiao walked out of the school.
The rain continued to fall, creating small ripples in the puddles.
Fang Xiaoxiao’s petite body was hidden under the umbrella. She walked slowly in a direction, neither fast nor slow.
Hu Wu and Lu Benwei looked at the time.
!!
“There’s still about an hour and a half before the estimated time.”
“If it’s a crime, will there be enough time?”
This was the common question of the three of them.
The three of them quietly followed behind Little Fang, shuttling back and forth in the city with her.
As it was afternoon, the pedestrians on the road are all in a hurry.
In contrast, she was an anomaly, echoing back and forth in the city.
Lu Benwei and the other two were hunters, and they were good at hiding themselves. The three of them followed her for more than half an hour, but they still could not expose themselves.
“There’s still an hour left. Was our guess wrong?” the three of them could not help but ask.
It was still raining, making rustling sounds on the green leaves.
“Wait, she seems to be waiting!” Lu Benwei suddenly said.
“Wait for the time to come?” Chu Yan asked in confusion.
“Wait!”
Lu Benwei suddenly stopped the two of them and said, “We seem to have missed something! Last night, we speculated that the dead were all believers of the God Welcoming Association. How many believers could there be? I clearly remember that Fang Xiaoxiao’s notebook had a countdown of hundreds and thousands! If those numbers represent a time, I’m afraid that even ten God Welcoming Associations won’t be enough for her to kill!”
“What exactly are you trying to say?” Hu Wu asked hurriedly, “Fang Xiaoxiao might not be our suspect?”
Lu Benwei did not deny it, but there were still some suspicious points about her.
“I just activated the Eye of Insight again, but I still can’t detect her!”
Just as the three of them were talking, Fang Xiaoxiao suddenly turned back. The three of them did not have time to talk and hurriedly hid to the side. At this moment, they were in the center of the downtown area.
“Is she going to make a move?”
Lu Benwei’s nerves were extremely tense as he stared at Fang Xiaoxiao.
If they were to fight in the downtown area, Lu Benwei would kill Fang Xiaoxiao at the first possible moment to avoid hurting others.
However, in the end, Fang Xiaoxiao only entered a flower shop.
The three of them heaved a sigh of relief. There was still half an hour left before the countdown to death.
Fang Xiaoxiao bought a bouquet of white lilies from the flower shop and returned the way she came.
“Is she going back to school?”
Fang Xiaoxiao walked straight toward First Junior High School.
“She took such a long time just to buy a bouquet of flowers and then go back to school?”
Soon, Fang Xiaoxiao’s actions confirmed their doubts. She returned to the school, which was only a road away.
First Junior High School was far away from the downtown area and was located at the junction of the Laocheng District.
The road was filled with potholes and large trucks of various colors passed through it.
The rain was still falling, and the world was filled with a layer of hazy fog. The large and small puddles were dyed black by mud and coal.
Fang Xiaoxiao held an umbrella and a bouquet of flowers as she looked at First Junior High School.
Lu Benwei and the other two hid under the roof of a supermarket. A thick telephone pole was just enough to cover them.
The estimated time had passed, and Fang Xiaoxiao was about to take action. She placed the flowers on the ground and left with the umbrella.
“What is she doing?” Lu Benwei and the other two started to question Fang Xiaoxiao again.
At this moment, an old man was holding a walking stick and trembling as he crossed the road.
Lu Benwei and Chu Yan both remembered him. He was the father of the supermarket owner at the school gate.
A truck sped past and almost grazed his body. The old man held his walking stick and scolded the driver.
“Let’s go and see that flower.”
Lu Benwei felt that there was something fishy about the lilies and wanted to take a look first.
As the three of them approached, a heavy whistle interrupted their advance. A large truck sped past.
When Lu Benwei noticed it, the world fell silent. The old man was hit and flew more than ten meters away. Rainwater mixed with blood sprinkled down on the human world.
Lu Benwei’s pupils contracted sharply.
Although it was five to six minutes before the estimated time. However, that was only an estimate. He could not make an accurate judgment.
He finally understood what the densely packed time in the notebook represented. It was neither a birthday nor a countdown. It was the real countdown to death!
Fang Xiaoxiao could see the time of death of everyone, but she was powerless to stop it!
Family, friends, and all the kind and friendly people she met. That was why she was a loner. When she saw the lives of the people around her slipping away, she could not grasp anything. That was why she bought flowers to send off her dying friend!
“Has there been such a talent in history?” Chu Yan was also very incredulous as she said in surprise.
When she turned around, she saw Lu Benwei holding a brick and smacking it at the back of Hu Wu’s head.
“You, what are you doing?” Chu Yan blinked her bright eyes.
Lu Benwei clapped his hands. “Don’t worry about it. Let’s go to the hotel!”
…
Hu Wu felt a headache coming on and grunted a few times.
Soon, he realized that his eyes were covered with something. He wanted to reach out and found that his arm was bound by something. He wanted to break free, but he heard Lu Benwei’s voice.
“Stop struggling. Even if you manage to break free, what do you think the chances of you escaping from me are?”
Hu Wu pursed his lips.
Lu Benwei sneered and said, “Answer my question first. How can a night watcher who has been working hard from the bottom be so bad at solving cases?”
Hu Wu clicked his tongue. “Didn’t I already say it? Ever since I became the bureau chief, all the cases were handled by my subordinates. My ability to handle cases has long deteriorated after so many years. All of my men are in Canglong City now!”
“Really?” Lu Benwei’s lips curled up. “But I checked the progress of the reconstruction of Canglong City on the internet and asked some acquaintances. I found that things aren’t what you said. There doesn’t seem to be a large group of night watchers in Canglong City.”
Hu Wu smacked his lips. “The Law Enforcement Bureau is secretive. How can the night watchers be easily discovered?”
“Oh? Is that so?” Lu Benwei replied, “But I’m calling the Paranormal Report Center now to report that there’s a suspected monster in the downtown area of Green Spirit City. Will the final call go through to you?”
