Chapter 334: The Person in the Photo (Part Five)_2



He immediately said, "Quick, go back with Gu Bai and print out the photo in high resolution, in A4 size, then immediately delete the photo from your camera. Remember, delete it completely." Lin Meng glanced at Xia Ruolan, and without having time to greet her, hurriedly ran back to the photo studio with Gu Bai. After they had left, Yan Junze turned to Huang Chen and said, "I forgot a critical issue. If we gather up everyone's photos right now, and burn them, or if we delete all the digital photos beyond recovery, would they still be in danger..." Before he could finish, Huang Chen was already shaking his head, "Among those who died earlier, some had tried that. A few days after the photo was destroyed, that person still died." "In other words, once the head-turning appears, burning the photo won't change the outcome," Yan Junze nodded. "Junze, what do we do now?" Li Yue came over to ask. In Li Yue's view, Yan Junze's current operations didn't seem like something an exorcist would do, but the existing strangeness was indeed very special, and perhaps only by using such an extraordinary method, a surprising maneuver, could they truly have a chance to take down this deeply hidden entity. "Just wait a moment, the result will come out soon," Yan Junze said. Before long, Gu Bai and Lin Meng came back at a trot, Gu Bai holding a printed A4-sized photo paper. Both of their complexions were off, not due to exhaustion from running, as this short distance wouldn't leave them pale from fatigue. Handing the photo paper to Yan Junze, Gu Bai said, "It's very odd, when we first printed it, everything was normal, but it changed quickly after taking it from Lin Meng's hand!" Yan Junze looked down and saw that in the photo, everyone else still looked the same, each showing a deadpan expression with lifeless, fish-like eyes, except for himself, whose head was now oddly tilted to the left. Although the tilt was not very large, it was already quite noticeable. His gaze shifted back to the photos in these people's hands. Because of the size, the images were not as clear as when they were enlarged earlier. Yan Junze again shifted his gaze, carefully examining the background of the photo, but couldn't discern any other abnormalities, nor could he see the figure of the Black Dress Woman. He thought it might be because the background was too dark, so he searched it again, not missing any detail in the photo, especially the background, but still did not see any contours of a person's silhouette. However, the undeniable fact was that he was already starting to turn his head in the photo. Turning to Huang Chen and Li Yue, he said, "I suggest that everyone here better stay together tonight. If nothing unexpected happens, everything should return to normal after tonight." Then he looked up, surveying the mansion's lobby, "Let's make do in the lobby for tonight. I'll stay here as well. If you can, try to stay awake tonight; don't sleep." "What, we can't sleep either?!" the man called Yang Zhijun said with a cry in his voice, looking like he was on the verge of tears. He felt like he was at his limit and on the edge of breaking down at any moment. Li Yue walked over, stood beside him and patted his shoulder, then sat him down on a sofa covered with a white cloth, whispering, "You can sleep for a bit, but just for a few minutes, and then I'll wake you." "If this goes on, let the strangeness kill me in my dreams, just kill me, I can't hold on anymore..." Yang Zhijun said weakly, shaking his head, no longer speaking. Yan Junze said, "It's not just in dreams, your current state is very poor, if you even doze off for a bit, you could be controlled by the strangeness and forced to commit suicide. Do you know how? By snapping your own neck, crack!" Yang Zhijun flinched, seemingly realizing the seriousness of the situation for the first time and hesitantly said, "Is there... any sort of stimulant? Give me... an injection." Yan Junze pulled aside Huang Chen and Li Yue, whispering, "If necessary tonight, maybe we should give an injection of stimulant to the overly exhausted ones, not too high of a dosage, just enough to keep them awake. As for the others, a few more cups of coffee should do the trick." "I'll make contact," Huang Chen said, "And then call a couple more guys over to help." Looking up at the second floor, Yan Junze said, "You all stay downstairs tonight, I'll stay upstairs. The way things are, it looks like I've joined the 'Black Skirt Club'. If everyone else stays awake and I'm the only one sleeping, there's a good chance she will come for me. No matter what sounds you hear tonight, nobody come upstairs, I can handle her." With that, he lowered his head and glanced again at the photo in his hand, only to see that his own head in the photo had moved again without notice, now completely in a sideways position. "Heh, this photo, taken with everyone together, sure has a strong dose," Yan Junze muttered to himself. Suddenly, his expression froze, and he stared intently at the photo in his hand, motionless. Huang Chen was busy making a phone call to contact the team's branch and didn't notice this. Li Yue, standing beside Yang Zhijun, sensed something off with Yan Junze and walked over to look at the photo. Yan Junze didn't look up, as if he knew it was Li Yue who had come over, and asked directly, "Take a close look, do you see anything special about this photo?" Li Yue examined the photo carefully, including the dark background, then shook his head, "I can't see anything." "How many people were there when we took the photo just now?" Yan Junze asked. "There were originally 27, and you made 28 after you joined," Li Yue replied.
