Chapter 98: Nip it in the bud (2)

To avoid getting a mouthful of smoke later.
"Huh? Why are you keeping your distance from me... don't worry, I won't blow smoke at you again."
Dương Khánh Vĩ paid attention to Hoàng Tuân's subtle movements.
He seemed to understand what Hoàng Tuân was thinking and spoke to him with a smile.
"If you blow smoke at me again, I'll punch you."
Hoàng Tuân showed no expression on his face at this moment; he just looked at Dương Khánh Vĩ with a stern face.
"Oh, don't be so sensitive, it's in the past, let's not care about it anymore."
As he spoke, sitting right next to Hoàng Tuân, he lit a new cigarette in his hand.
When Dương Khánh Vĩ sat down.
Hoàng Tuân noticed that there seemed to be a steel rod stuck in his calf, and the steel rod seemed to be firmly embedded in Dương Khánh Vĩ's bone.
If pulled out forcefully.
It could be fatal...
How could someone struggle like this?
Hoàng Tuân didn't care about Dương Khánh Vĩ sitting next to him; he just turned his head and thought silently.
"Hiazz, we shouldn't be so distant; we are good brothers, being so far apart is too formal!"
However, Dương Khánh Vĩ ignored it.
Not caring that Hoàng Tuân ignored him.
He shamelessly moved a bit closer to Hoàng Tuân.
"By the way, earlier, were you just acting when you were hypnotized?"
Dương Khánh Vĩ, who was close to Hoàng Tuân, then asked with a smile on his lips.
"Not your business."
"Ha ha, that's an acceptance, then."
Dương Khánh Vĩ chuckled twice.
He intended to say something more.
However, the wound on his calf accidentally rubbed against his torn pants, causing pain.
After a while.
At this moment, his face softened.
"By the way, do you know much about this place?"
Ann asked.
In reality, when it came to discussions about matters.
Hoàng Tuân wasn't too concerned.
Currently, he was fighting alone in the mist. If someone could share his thoughts at this moment, he would feel much more relaxed.
Not friendly with Dương Khánh Vĩ.
Just because of the cigarette smoke that Dương Khánh Vĩ blew at him last time...
Just as Hoàng Tuân was considering whether to waste time talking to this person, Dương Khánh Vĩ took the initiative to open his personal control panel.
【Name: Dương Khánh Vĩ】
【Identity: Supporting Role (Golden)】
【Description: A person with an unusual worldview...】
"Huh?"
Although Hoàng Tuân had predicted that this person was definitely not simple.
But he didn't expect it to be not simple to this extent...
Even though only three pieces of information were displayed on the personal control panel, any point about his identity would cause Hoàng Tuân's emotions to soar.
"Supporting Role Gold Rank? Does that mean a Gold Rank supporting role like a VIP?"
Hoàng Tuân murmured with doubt.
His voice was not too small.
Dương Khánh Vĩ on the side also heard it.
"Well, roughly. So what? Can you believe that I have abilities now?"
He replied.
"The ability must be somewhat, but the description is not very reliable..."
Hoàng Tuân found his description.
He deliberately complained.
"Oh, that's not important; that's people's prejudice against me. Since I showed you my panel, you should respond with a bit of sincerity, right?"
Hearing what Dương Khánh Vĩ said.
Hoàng Tuân suddenly remembered Lê Hoa Phát, who often came to his house to eat.
For some reason.
He always felt that Dương Khánh Vĩ was somewhat similar to Lê Hoa Phát.
For example, thick-skinned.
And the way they talk...
Hoàng Tuân had nothing to hide.
He knew that Dương Khánh Vĩ wanted to confirm that he had some abilities, not just a foolish person who shouted for help when faced with danger.
After discussing with each other.
So, without hesitation, he also opened his control panel to display it.
【Name: Hoàng Tuân】
【Identity: Supporting Role】
【Description: The lamb eater...】
"Humph, you still dare to talk about me. Your description is also incorrect. Lamb eater, did you play the role of a butcher killing sheep in the previous script?"
Dương Khánh Vĩ did not miss the opportunity to retort.
Immediately, Hoàng Tuân replied.
"No, it's just..."
Hoàng Tuân was about to answer.
But he suddenly remembered that this was not his style.
So he decisively kept quiet.
"Don't talk nonsense anymore; let's talk about something else. What happened to your wounds?"
He changed the subject and asked Dương Khánh Vĩ.
"Did you hear the city-wide announcement? I did it, to conveniently arrange for these people to leave the city center, I immediately put myself at the bottom of the departure list."
As he said that, Dương Khánh Vĩ smiled brightly at Hoàng Tuân, with a proud expression.
It seemed like he was asking, "What do you think? Am I brave enough?" a question like that.
"Then, unintentionally, I didn't grasp the right timing well. When preparing to leave, strange things started to appear there, and these wounds were caused during the escape."
Dương Khánh Vĩ pulled up his clothes.
In addition to the wound on his thigh, many deadly wounds were revealed...
Hoàng Tuân didn't even know how he could sit here, talk, and laugh like a normal person after suffering so many serious wounds.
"What happened next?"
"Then, I ran away..." Dương Khánh Vĩ paused for a moment before continuing, "Okay, these things are not important. If you didn't ask me, I wouldn't bother to talk about them."
"So, what is important?"
Dương Khánh Vĩ glanced at Hoàng Tuân upon hearing those words.
He looked into the distance, which had sunk into the night, in the silent, pitch-black city. At this moment, there was no one in sight, like a dead city.
"Have you seen those dark clouds? As long as they cover any place, abnormalities will occur, regardless of whether there were abnormalities or homicides there before."
"Now the entire city has been covered."
"In other words, we have actually encountered danger... It's just that because there are too many people, there are no corresponding rules here, so nothing has happened yet."
"But sooner or later, it will happen. I have roughly calculated it. If we don't do anything and just stay here foolishly, in a few hours, the abnormalities in this place will be formed."
"Alright, afraid you won't understand."
"Just imagine this as a place where abnormalities can occur. Currently, it seems safe, but that's only temporary."
Hearing what Dương Khánh Vĩ said, Hoàng Tuân didn't make any sound to disturb.
The other's words almost matched what he had deduced. There were no anomalies in this place after being covered by dark clouds, probably because there were too many people, and therefore, no corresponding rules for supernatural occurrences were formed.
But not for long.
Danger would arise here, just like in other places...
For example, earlier, he discovered that everyone's mobile phones had lost synchronous signals and powered off due to insufficient power.
This disruption in communication methods was a classic plot point for the supernatural events that were about to happen in horror movies.
As for why it had been delayed until now, he thought it was challenging for a horror story to unfold in the midst of a crowd.
Perhaps.
Right now, the author is equivalent to a "deity."
Racking their brains to figure out how to write the rules and supernatural occurrences in this place...
"Is there anything else, for example, preventive measures?"
Hoàng Tuân asked.
"Well, you must have heard about the origin of the curse, right? Any place with anomalies will have an origin of the curse."
"There's a saying."
"Nip it in the bud"
