The USB drive had run out of energy.
Chen Chen sighed inwardly, then pulled out the USB drive listlessly and threw it back into his pocket.
Although the rules related to the USB drive that appeared in his mind were extremely outrageous, and even the fact that knowledge about the USB drive appeared in his mind was a very outrageous thing in itself, the fact that the USB drive had run out of energy still made Chen Chen feel extremely at a loss.
Do not panic, there should be a solution...
Chen Chen took a deep breath and leaned back on the sofa. At the same time, his brain began to operate in an extremely rapid manner.
"First of all, the reason why a lot of strange knowledge about the USB drive appeared in my mind may be because I have the USB drive. Just like in Xianxia, the USB drive recognizes its master?
"Of course, this explanation isn't reliable. Even if it's going to recognize its master, it should be Zhou Jie. After all, he was the one who transferred the movie in and he was the one who opened the movie to release some strange things..."
Chen Chen narrowed his eyes, supported his forehead with one hand, and gradually fell into deep thought.
"Let's not talk about this for now, but according to the rules related to the USB drive in my mind, once the movie is opened, it can extract material from it... But the strange thing is that among all the rules, there are no rules for ghost movies at all. That is to say, what happens when I open a ghost movie, even the USB drive itself has no idea...
"However, from the other rules and the encounter in the afternoon, I can guess — since opening an ordinary movie can extract ordinary movie props, and opening a sci-fi movie can extract the sci-fi props inside, then opening a ghost movie..."
Emmmm...
"Could it be that the ghosts come out of the movie by themselves?
"But, 'Final Destination' isn't a horror film, it's a special kind of …"
Chen Chen's heart skipped a beat. He raised his head abruptly and stared blankly at the screen in front of him.
"Rules?"
Chen Chen's eyes suddenly lit up.
"If 'Final Destination' is a kind of rule, then 'Ju-on', 'Ring', and 'One Missed Call' are also the materialization of a kind of rule?"
With this in mind, Chen Chen turned on the computer again and hurriedly watched the four horror movies from the Internet cafe's cinema.
"Final Destination" was a typical Chinese fatalism movie. "If the King of Hell wants you dead at midnight, who dares to keep you alive until midnight?" As long as you were on Death's list, no matter how you escaped or hid, you could not escape the fate of death in the end — you used all kinds of means to escape death. Ironically, it was these means that seemed to coincidentally superimposed together that became the way for Death to kill you.
If this rule appeared in reality, it would be really fun …
Chen Chen only felt a chill in his heart. He did not think that Death really existed in this world. It was obvious that the so-called Death in the movie was a special kind of "rule". Strictly speaking, it was like the law of causality —
Because the main characters of the movie were determined to be the 'effect' of death, all of their actions to save themselves would become the 'cause' of death.
If this law were to be released, then the entire world would probably really collapse …
At that time, in addition to Newton's law, the law of thermodynamics, the law of conservation of mass and energy, and other scientific laws in the world, there would also be a 'Law of Death'?
MMP...
Chen Chen only felt a headache coming on, but he had to continue guessing. In his mind, a brainstorm gradually blew up...
The movie Ju-on was about a middle-aged woman named Kayako who was full of resentment. She had not lived a comfortable life since she was a child. When she grew up, her husband mistakenly thought she was having an affair and killed her. Therefore, everyone who entered her house would be killed by her and her son, Toshio.
The core of this movie was actually very simple. As long as you stepped into this house, you would be pestered to death by Kayako.
If it was also regarded as a rule, then "Death upon entry" was the rule of the entire movie.
If this was the case, the moment this rule was released, the entire Dormitory 404 had been contaminated by this rule.
Chen Chen's heart was even more pained. He was not afraid of releasing the Law of Death. After all, the Law of Death only killed those who deserved to die but did not die. He would not be implicated, but if it was the rule of Ju-on, then he would be in deep sh * t.
Because Ju-on was a completely unsolvable horror movie. What was unsolvable? That was, anyone who had entered the house would die and there was no solution at all!
It was not only Ju-on. In addition to this unsolvable horror movie, Zhou Jie also released One Missed Call and Ring.
One Missed Call was about a mental disorder called "Surrogate Disease". A girl named "Mimiko" herself suffered from asthma. Because her mother also suffered from Surrogate Disease, she was delayed and eventually died. At the same time, after her death, she was filled with incomparable resentment and attached to the mobile phone.
As long as they were targeted by Mimiko, they would receive their own death call a few days ago. When the call came, these mobile phones would emit a special nursery rhyme ringtone.
Some of the contents of the call were their voices before they died, and some would send MMS messages, sending pictures of their death. The date of death was the date shown on the call.
What was even more terrifying was that this kind of death was contagious. After being killed by Mimiko, their mobile phones would randomly select a person from the address book to continue this relay game of death...
This was the way of killing in One Missed Call.
To put it simply, the ghost call first informed you that you would die and gave the method and date of your death, but the real despair was that even if you knew all this, you would still conform to the method and time of death given by the ghost call for various reasons, not even a second off.
This was exactly the same as Final Destination.
Thinking of this, Chen Chen suddenly remembered that he did not seem to have received any strange calls, which meant that he might not have been targeted by Mimiko yet.
Thinking of this, Chen Chen could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
However, he did not completely relax. Instead, he suddenly took out his mobile phone, pulled out the SIM card, and then turned off the phone directly. Then, he threw it under his feet and stomped on it a few times.
It was not until he heard the crisp sound coming from the phone that he stopped.
If the phone was broken, he should not receive the curse of One Missed Call anymore, right?
As for the last one, Ring, Chen Chen had not seen it directly, but he knew the rules of death in this movie. After all, this movie was too famous, and the rules in it were even simpler. As long as you watched a videotape, you would be haunted by a female ghost named Sadako.
However, it was obvious that Chen Chen had not watched any videotape. If there were rules, perhaps Ring was the easiest one to avoid.
In other words, among these four horror movies, only Ju-on could pose a threat to him for the time being.
Chen Chen did not know whether to cry or laugh for a while. Although for him, no matter how many female ghosts he was haunted by, it was a dead end, but now that he knew that he was only haunted by one, it was surprisingly a little easier...
Chen Chen smiled bitterly.
"But even so, this matter is still very serious."
Chen Chen murmured in a low voice, "Because this means that the rules of Ju-on will start from Dormitory 404 and spread around bit by bit. Because Dormitory 404 is often visited by people. As long as they visit, they'll be on Kayako's kill list, and the room of the person killed by Kayako will also become a new place of Ju-on. Entering this room will also cause you to be hunted by Kayako..."
Compared with the other killing rules, Kayako's rule was like a spiritual hazard, enough to cause tens of thousands of times more destructive power than other rules!
"In the end, the world will only become like this — that is, the houses all over the world will no longer be inhabitable, and the entire human civilization will be destroyed by Kayako's curse."
Thinking of this, Chen Chen could not help but take a deep breath. At this moment, his entire back was almost soaked in cold sweat.
"This is beyond the scope of what I can solve."
Chen Chen slowly turned off the computer. If there was still energy in the USB drive, he would take a gamble and find a way to solve Kayako's curse himself.
Unfortunately, the weather was not in his favor. There was no more energy in the USB drive.
In that case, if Chen Chen wanted to survive, there was only one way left...
Thinking of this, the computer also shut down completely. Chen Chen was just about to stand up when suddenly, through the reflection of the computer screen, he saw a little boy with a pale body flash past behind him.
At this moment, Chen Chen only felt that his blood was about to freeze. He stiffened his neck and slowly turned around, but found that there was nothing behind him.
"Toshio..."
Chen Chen's lips turned blue. He quickly stood up, not even refunding the balance, and staggered out of the Internet cafe.
It was not until he left the Internet cafe that Chen Chen realized that the sky was completely dark.
In the entire sky, there was only a little bit of burning clouds lingering in the extreme west, like a bonfire that was about to go out, leaving only the remnants of the flame.
Darkness was about to come.
Chen Chen's heart was cold. For a moment, he even developed a kind of confusion, a kind of confusion that he did not know how to face everything.
However, at this moment, from the corner of his eye, Chen Chen saw that around the corner of the Internet cafe's entrance, a dark thing seemed to move.
Chen Chen, who was already jittery, was startled. He subconsciously turned around, only to see a petite, dirty beggar curled up in front of the Internet cafe, looking at him pitifully.
That pair of eyes gave Chen Chen an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
"You are..."
Chen Chen subconsciously took two steps forward, then immediately came to a realization that he did not know this beggar at all.
Something was not right about this.
With this in mind, Chen Chen immediately turned around and left the place without looking back. After learning that he had become the protagonist of a horror movie, he knew that he could not afford to die at all. Furthermore, he could not afford to touch something that was obviously bizarre like this!
However, what Chen Chen did not know was that after he turned around and left, the beggar was still staring at his back in a daze, unwilling to leave for a long time...
"If I go directly to the police, the police will only treat me as a psychopath. Therefore, I must come up with strong evidence so that my voice can reach the top as soon as possible and attract the attention of the authorities..."
Along the way, Chen Chen observed his surroundings while constantly thinking about the next step. Chen Chen, who was at a dead end, understood that there was only one way for him to survive now, which was to cooperate with the authorities.
That was right, turn to the authorities!
If there was enough energy in the USB flash drive, Chen Chen would never choose this path because he did not want to entrust his fate to the conscience of others. God knew what kind of treatment he would receive after handing over the USB flash drive.
Imprisonment? Ignore it? Silence it?
However, Chen Chen now understood that it was impossible to charge the USB flash drive on the spot. In his mind, there was a rule about the USB flash drive. The power of the USB flash drive was based on 1200 kWh for one gram of substance, so whether in terms of money or time, he had no room to match it.
The only way was to inform the authorities of the USB flash drive's functions. After the authorities verified the authenticity of the USB flash drive and saw the tragic spread of the Ju-on rule, they would naturally transfer the entire country's electricity to charge the USB flash drive in order to protect themselves.
In this way, it would only take one night at most for the USB flash drive to obtain a massive amount of energy and find a way to stop the Ju-on!
Therefore, what Chen Chen had to do now was to go to the dormitory building and see if the Ju-on rule of 404 had spread throughout the afternoon...
However, when Chen Chen returned to school with a nervous heart and came to the front of the dormitory building, he suddenly had goosebumps all over his body.
At some point, the dormitory building that should have been bustling with noise and excitement seemed particularly strange and quiet at this time. Most of the dormitories were still lit, but there was not the slightest sign of human activity.
No, the entire dormitory building had been infected...
Chen Chen took a deep breath and immediately withdrew his foot that had just stepped on the steps. He understood that his school's dormitory building No. 1 and the hundreds of students in the building had been completely destroyed. Even if they did not die now, they would eventually die.
"Chen Chen, so you're here?"
Just as Chen Chen felt a chill in his heart and was about to leave, the voice of a middle-aged man suddenly came from behind.
Chen Chen quickly turned around and immediately saw his tutor, Wang Yi, standing behind him, staring at him anxiously.
"Tutor Wang!"
The thought flashed through Chen Chen's mind. He even said before the other party spoke, "Tutor Wang, did something happen in our dormitory?"
"You still know that something happened?"
At this time, the middle-aged man's face was ashen. When he heard Chen Chen's words, he immediately said agitatedly, "How many times did I call you? Why didn't you answer any of them?"
"Tutor Wang, my phone is broken..."
Chen Chen showed a troubled look. "What the hell happened? I think Zhou Jie is acting strange today. Did something happen to Zhou Jie?"
"Zhou Jie, Zhou Jie..."
However, as Chen Chen said the name Zhou Jie, the middle-aged man's face suddenly became even uglier. He took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart. "When was the last time you saw Zhou Jie today?"
"It was after the first class in the afternoon."
Chen Chen said immediately, "At that time, I had just returned to the dormitory and Zhou Jie came back right after. Then I went to the cafeteria with Wang Wei and Li Bo to eat. After that, I went outside the school and only came back now."
As he said this, Chen Chen's heart suddenly moved. He associated it with the killing pattern of Ju-on and immediately asked, "Tutor Wang, is Zhou Jie missing?"
"It's not just Zhou Jie."
Tutor Wang's face became even uglier. "In the entire dormitory building No. 1, a total of five people are missing. Someone saw them all disappear after entering Dormitory 404!"
