Chapter 284 New Life (5)

No one spoke up immediately.

As if stunned by some invisible force, everyone's eyes were fixed on the videotape that had popped up.

The air seemed to be frozen in this dark room. Perhaps due to the platform environment, the room was filled with a lot of dust. A faint ray of cold light shone in from the window, illuminating the dust floating in the air. They swirled around the passengers, becoming the only thing still moving in the room at this moment.

The newcomers dared not speak, while the elders were deep in thought.

When Ning Jianwei suddenly got up and walked towards the television, everyone's eyes suddenly fell on her.

She moved closer, bent down, and looked at the videotape that she had personally placed inside.

Now that it had been ejected, Ning Jianwei hadn't noticed anything unusual from a distance, but as it drew closer, he sensed something was amiss.

Something has been added to this videotape.

It looks like it's been wet.

But she checked that the machine was working properly and there was no water inside when she put it in.

Now, the videotape looks like it's just been pulled out of the water.

Ning Jian frowned slightly and gently touched the surface of the videotape.

It is warm.

“Come and take a look.”

She withdrew her hand, rubbed her fingers together, and looked back at the other special-grade officers.

"what is this?"

Jiang Jing was puzzled when she saw the film of water.

Lu Jinzhao and Lin Lin were also clueless about this. Only the fortune teller looked at it carefully, touched it, and then smelled it before giving a guess.

"It looks like amniotic fluid."

Upon hearing this, the expressions on the faces of the others changed.

The newlyweds who were secretly listening to their conversation behind them looked uneasy.

I had just finished watching a strange video when traces of what looked like amniotic fluid appeared on the tape. It was an ominous sign.

"Do you have any ideas?" Ning Jianwei asked.

"A little."

The fortune teller pointed to the videotape: "While watching the videotape, I think you all felt it too, something has entangled us."

"Before entering the platform, I considered all sorts of possibilities for new life, whether real, abstract, or metaphorical."

"Now that we've reviewed the video, we can be fairly certain that 'newborn' refers to the birth of a fetus."

The fortune teller spoke with certainty.

"The mission requires us to watch the video, so the video must be crucial and extremely dangerous."

“Something that could even lead us to our deaths.”

She wasn't exaggerating.

Seeing that others did not refute her, some of the newcomers realized this.

Their faces turned pale, and they even secretly regretted watching the videotape.

"The ghost is most likely this baby."

"Is it possible that the videotape recorded its birth process?"

"We watched images of ghosts, so we are haunted by them."

The fortune teller's guess was reasonable, and no one refuted her for the time being.

"I just don't understand why the order of the recordings is reversed."

Everyone present could see that the order was reversed.

After all, the normal delivery sequence is for the baby to come out of the mother's body, not be placed inside her. Ning Jianwei also shook her head: "There are too few clues right now, and there are many possibilities. I can't determine the most likely cause."

Lu Jinzhao closed her eyes, her mind replaying all the scenes she had just seen, until finally, she focused on one particular image.

The pregnant woman's eyes were as calm as still water.

"Is that the woman in the video from room 401?"

She gave me the videotape, which contained my birth records. Could it be my own birth record?

The woman in the picture clearly doesn't seem to be acting normally.

Moreover, Lu Jinzhao believes that everyone involved in this surgery is abnormal.

“Very likely,” Ning Jianwei replied.

"I'm thinking," Lu Jinzhao said, a little slower than usual, because her mind was still racing: "The videotape, what does it mean to a ghost?"

Can spreading fear become a medium for murder?

This might work on a low-level platform, but it's a death platform here.

If the ghosts of the Death Platform can only kill if people watch a video of their birth, then that's rather weak.

Even if the mission requires them to see it, can't they still be exempted by paying for their lives?

There must be other, more important places.

"Even ghosts can't commemorate their birth, can they?" The fortune teller said with a half-smile. Because her tone was too frivolous, no one took her words seriously, which instead eased the tense atmosphere.

"Who knows?"

Lu Jinzhao shrugged in agreement with her words, seemingly no longer dwelling on the issue.

After all, she couldn't get an answer for the time being, and if she kept thinking about this, she might overlook other things.

Besides this, Lu Jinzhao is also concerned about the reversed order in the video.

But as Ning Jianwei said, there are too many possibilities, and it is impossible to draw a conclusion for the time being.

"Let's return this videotape first."

Ning Jianwei stood up, frowned, and reached out to pick up the videotape that was covered in water.

"Oh, right."

She turned to the newcomers who had been silent since watching the videotape: "We estimate we'll be staying here for a while, so you'd better find your own place to stay."

She then added, "These are all empty houses. You can discuss where you want to stay."

After saying that, he took the videotape and walked towards room 401.

Lu Jinzhao also walked over; she wanted to see what the woman in room 401 looked like.

The newlyweds left behind looked at each other in bewilderment. Only after Lu Jinzhao and the others left did they begin to discuss the matter, somewhat at a loss.

"What should we do? Where should we stay?"

"Live near them."

"What on earth is going on? What videotape? Is it some kind of midnight horror movie? Is there a ghost here?"

Some people belatedly began to feel afraid.

"Didn't you feel it? From the moment we got off the bus, we've been in another dimension!"

"I did feel it, but nobody said there were ghosts here!"

Seeing that the tone was getting more and more heated, almost to the point of arguing, the girl downstairs who had originally intended to remind Shu Yuan finally couldn't hold back anymore. She stood up and said, "Stop making a scene. Is this the point right now?"

The others looked at her: "What else could it be?"

Jiang Ting took a deep breath and emphasized in a heavy tone: "We all watched the videotape. You heard what they said just now, right? While we were watching the videotape, something entangled us!"

"The key point is, we may be facing danger, but we know nothing about it. What should we do next?"

"So what do you suggest we do?" someone asked curtly.

Jiang Ting glanced at these ignorant people who were just like herself and simply advised, "Listen more, watch more, and observe more."
