I can rewind time to prevent death

Chapter 61 Resentful Granny



Because this place was an apartment complex, and not a location so haunted that staff couldn't even enter, the efficiency of the installation crew was quite high.

After surveying the complex, a middle-aged man who seemed like the leader drew a distribution map, instructing the workers to install cameras at the specified spots.

Then, this obviously experienced middle-aged man patted his bottom and left.

Yan Junze received a call from Tang Zhengyi while at school, and upon returning to FH Community, he found that the workers had already left, but his own Building 7 had noticeably more cameras.

There were also cameras on the opposing walls and along the pathways.

During the camera installation, residents saw the process but assumed it was the community's initiative to strengthen security monitoring, and no one suspected anything unusual.

Yan Junze didn't tell his parents, either.

His plan was to start executing the "Look at Her Face" task this Saturday night, likely after 1 a.m.

What Yan Junze didn't expect was to bump into the Exorcist Huang Chen right at the entrance of the complex upon coming home from school.

Huang Chen, with his head down, hurried up the stairs, nearly colliding with a young man descending.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Yan Junze called out to him from behind, "Mr. Huang Chen."

Huang Chen stopped and turned his head downward; seeing that it was Yan Junze, he slapped his forehead, "Oh, I almost forgot, you live here too."

"Aren't you here to see me?" Yan Junze wondered.

"No," Huang Chen stood there waiting for Yan Junze to catch up, saying, "I'm going to Room 503, the Lv kid who studies abroad is waiting for me upstairs."

"Lv Xin? He's here again?" Yan Junze asked in surprise.

"You know each other?" Huang Chen also showed a puzzled look.

"He came to see me before, asking about the discovery of his grandmother's death at home," Yan Junze didn't hide the fact.

Huang Chen nodded, "I figured he was investigating Granny Ren's cause of death."

"Really? Did he find anything?" Yan Junze asked curiously.

"That's what Lv Xin says, so I came to have a look," Huang Chen replied.

At this point in the conversation, the two had reached the fourth floor.

Yan Junze said, "Do you want to stop by my place first? My parents won't be home from work until later, how about a cup of tea first?"

"No need," Huang Chen waved his hand, "business is business, let's chat another day."

"Sure."

Yan Junze didn't say anything more and watched as Huang Chen proceeded up the stairs to the fifth floor.

After making sure Huang Chen had gone upstairs, he then turned his head to look at Ke'er lying on his back, "You're getting bolder! You used to avoid Huang Chen at all costs, but now you treat him like he's thin air."

Ke'er ignored him and continued lying motionless.

After a pause, Yan Junze added, "But then again, Huang Chen once told me only exorcists above three stars can sense the presence of strangenesses. Should you encounter an exorcist of that level, you need to be extra careful and avoid them in advance."

Ke'er stretched out a purplish-black finger and flicked Yan Junze's hair at the back of his head as a response.

At the same time, in Lv Yaoyao's home.

Yu Tao was furious but helpless as he stared at Lv Yaoyao and said, "How could you let Lv Jiayan go out alone? Her leaving now, as soon as she's away from us, away from Xiaochang, it's almost no different from sending her to die!"

Lv Yaoyao was peeling an orange for Xiaochang, without any expression, she said, "Yu Tao, are you blaming me? I told you, she insisted on going to meet Lv Xin, saying that she wanted to help find the cause of Grandma's death. Tch, she never visited when mom was alive, and now that she's gone, only when her own life is threatened does she start to care about others. Just like her dad!"

"You should watch your words," Yu Tao helplessly sat down and lit a cigarette.

Sitting opposite him, Yang Depei and Zhao Shuai looked at each other.

Unable to contain his anger, Zhao Shuai muttered to himself, "That young girl really doesn't understand, talking about how capable Lv Xin, our second brother's son, is, investigating his parents' death on his own outside. It provoked Lv Jiayan, and she quietly ran out to help. Hey, who said those things to her?"

Lv Yaoyao's face subtly changed, a mix of embarrassment and annoyance.

But considering the speaker was no less than an Exorcist master, she dared not offend him. She broke off a piece of the peeled orange, carefully fed it to Xiaochang, her face an iron shade, and said no more.

Yang Depei elbowed Zhao Shuai, "Call Huang Chen, tell him Lv Jiayan might have gone to FH Community. I'm heading over now!"

...

"What?"

Sitting on the couch in Room 503, talking to Lv Xin, Huang Chen's face changed slightly. Without hanging up the phone, he stood up and quickly walked out of Room 503, leaned over the corridor railing, and looked down.

About two minutes later, a little girl in light yellow casual pants and a pale purple sweater appeared below, looking up at the building numbers on the exterior wall before stepping into the staircase of building seven.

"Lv Jiayan, that girl really came!" Huang Chen, with a resigned look, turned to Lv Xin, who was still sitting on the sofa inside, "Your sister Lv Jiayan is here, I'll go down to meet her."

"Mhmm, it's good that she came," Lv Xin nodded.

At the same moment.

Yan Junze finished his homework and logged onto the "Open Your Eyes" video platform to casually browse through a few videos.

The quality of these videos appearing on the homepage was quite high, obviously shot by professional teams.

He even saw those supernatural videos shot entirely with fixed cameras, indeed they felt much more realistic.

Thinking this, Yan Junze decided to go out for a walk, stretch his limbs, and check the newly installed cameras in various corners of the building.

Having just watched her wash his hair, Ke'er was now nowhere to be found, but since following him, she had never appeared in front of his parents—very obedient. Leaving her alone at home, Yan Junze was not worried.

After closing the door, he strolled down the hallway.

As he was about to approach the staircase, Yan Junze suddenly stopped, staring blankly ahead as if witnessing some extremely bizarre scene.

At the same time, Huang Chen met up with Lv Jiayan, who was coming up the stairs. The two had just reached the fourth floor and appeared before Yan Junze.

What made Yan Junze freeze at that moment was a task notification that suddenly popped into his mind.

[Task Name: Evil Spirit-eating;]

[Task Level: Trembling with Fear (High);]

[Task Background: A terrifying evil spirit has set its sights on Lv Jiayan, intending to kill her. The parents, who had her late in life, cherish Lv Jiayan as the apple of their eye, and her deceased parents will never allow this frightful evil spirit to target her. However, the disparity in strength makes them utterly powerless. Perhaps there's a slim chance for Lv Jiayan.

Her father, Lü Qiang, and mother, Wang Qin have prepared for the worst; if they (the Newborn Evil Spirits) are consumed by the malevolent entity, its strength will be sealed for three weeks;]

[Task Explanation: Find a way to make the ferocious evil spirit consume these two Newborn Evil Spirits, ensuring Lv Jiayan's survival;]

[Task Reward: 900 Different Dimension Energy points;]

[Task Penalty: You will draw the wrath of the terrifying evil spirit (this penalty is inevitable), unless you kill it;]

[Task Tips: 1. The evil spirit cannot be locked down; 2. Do not delude yourself into confronting it head-on; 3. Do not release any friendly evil spirits, or beware of a group wipe-out;]

[Note: This evil spirit is the ultimate evolution of Granny Ren, you can now call her—Resentful Granny!]]
