I can rewind time to prevent death
Chapter 332: The Person in the Photo (Part Three)
Yan Junze's heart sunk after receiving the call from Xia Ruolan.
Xia Ruolan told him that she didn't know if she was dreaming or awake, which meant that this woman had encountered the situation Huang Chen had described to him the night before.
According to Huang Chen, if the person in the photo had completely turned their head, then the person in reality was very likely to be killed in their dreams.
When he got up this morning, he had been planning to contact Xia Ruolan, to remind her to be careful, and to meet up with her. But to his surprise, Xia Ruolan's dream had come earlier.
Soon, a thought crossed Yan Junze's mind. He let out a wry smile, thinking to himself that he had overlooked another important fact.
Huang Chen's words were unreliable!
Based on past experiences, Huang Chen indeed had many behaviors, including his words, that were unreliable. What he said was one thing, but when it came down to acting on it, this guy's tips often missed some key factors.
Now, thinking back, he realized that he had almost fallen for Huang Chen's words once again.
After comforting Xia Ruolan on the phone for a bit and informing her that she was indeed in the real world and that it was indeed him answering her call,
Xia Ruolan's voice on the other end of the phone became somewhat calmer. Yan Junze said, "Have your husband stay with you at all times. We'll meet at Happy Ocean Park at twelve o'clock noon, Gate 3."
After hanging up the phone, Xiang Er was already prepared and ready to leave, while Ku Zai had just come out of the bathroom, staring at Yan Junze blankly because he realized that the two of them were about to head out again.
"How have you been recovering these past few days?" Yan Junze looked at Ku Zai. "We're preparing to go out. If you think you can walk a bit more, you can come along with me for some fresh air."
"Mm, good, I rested very well last night," Ku Zai quickly nodded.
Before meeting Yan Junze, this guy could have been dubbed "the ultimate hermit," as there was probably no one in his age group who was stuck at home all day with a bunch of strangenesses and couldn't leave like he was.
However, now that he had gained freedom, not everyone really wanted to stay at home. Ku Zai genuinely wanted to go out and follow Yan Junze on his adventures.
The main reason was to see Xiang Er a bit more.
After breakfast, just as his father, Yan Daguo, had left, Yan Junze said goodbye to his mother and headed out with Xiang Er and Ku Zai.
While descending the stairs, Ku Zai couldn't help but ask, "Brother Yan, I've noticed that Sister Xiang Er seems to never sleep. Doesn't she need to rest?"
"She doesn't rest." Before Yan Junze could answer, Xiang Er had already turned her head and said, "My physique does not require rest."
"Not tired?"
"Not tired."
"Sister Xiang Er is amazing!"
Seeing that Xiang Er did not want to explain further, Ku Zai did not feel it appropriate to press for details and could only offer a noncommittal compliment before shutting up.
"Xiang Er is very special," Yan Junze said with a smile, watching Ku Zai. "You'll find out in time."
After that, Yan Junze took a few steps forward to walk alongside Xiang Er, and in a lowered voice, he asked, "Ku Zai also has a special physique. Does his body not attract you at all now?"
"It does," Xiang Er nodded, then added after a moment, "But I can control myself."
Yan Junze nodded and said no more.
As the trio walked on the community's road, Xiang Er suddenly slowed down. After a few more steps, she stopped completely, turning her head around to inspect the vicinity.
"What's the matter?" Yan Junze asked, puzzled.
Xiang Er did not immediately answer but walked a few steps forward, then quickly returned. After several seconds, she finally said, "There's a strong strangeness magnetic field here, although now there's only a trace left."
After a pause, Xiang Er turned to look at Yan Junze, "I suspect there is an extremely powerful strangeness nearby. I can hardly help feeling terrified now. This strangeness must be very, very strong."
Yan Junze laughed, "You don't have to worry about that. The strangeness you're talking about, I know it. I was planning to introduce you two, but I thought it might upset her, so I've been putting it off. In a few days, once we've dealt with the photo strangeness issue, we'll go meet them together."
Xiang Er shivered a bit as if afraid, but still nodded.
Yan Junze guessed that since Xiang Er had detected a strangeness magnetic field here, something might have happened last night.
However, with Aunt Mei in the community, and considering that this inscrutable old lady must have shown up here, it caused Xiang Er to detect the disorder in this area's magnetic field.
The three left the community, however, since it was still early, they did not head straight to Happy Ocean Park, but instead towards the west side of Shuntian City, where the Exorcist team's office was located.
Upon arrival, the Exorcist team on this side of Shuntian also followed the Tianmeng model, using an old-style office building, but much smaller.
Outside the building hung a sign reading: "Shuntian City Archive Sub-division 2."
Xiang Er and Ku Zai definitely couldn't come, so Yan Junze left them in a coffee shop separated by a street, specially requesting a private room for them to stay inside without showing up.
If they were indeed discovered by an Exorcist, Yan Junze was not worried about Xiang Er's safety, but rather afraid that she might kill the Exorcists who tried to capture her, complicating the situation.
After all, the overall strength of Shuntian's Exorcists could not be as high as Tianmeng's. Below two-star Exorcists used to be the majority, with three-star Exorcists relying on Tianmeng for deployment.
Now, it was said to be somewhat better, with two three-star Exorcists stationed here to handle strangenesses up to the middle-level Sculpting Spirit without much of a problem.
