Chapter 89: Treasure—Mysterious Pocket Watch
What the captain means is that everyone has not yet clarified the relationship between the director, the other actor, and the deceased.
Something must have happened between them that caused a change in their relationship.
"Did something special happen between them that caused the director to leave the deceased and be with another actor?" Long Ya asked.
"Yes, something happened between them, and now all you have to do is make up for it." The captain, the short captain, had already made it very clear.
What is going on?
"Has the deceased ever thought about killing the director?" Zhou Jun asked.
"No." The short captain denied.
"Did the deceased ever think of killing another actor?" Jack Wu asked.
"Yes." The short captain confirmed.
"Did the deceased know that the other actor knew that he had done many bad things?" Zhou Kun asked.
"The dead know." The short captain confirmed again.
He actually knew that it was so, Bai Chen understood, everything was already very clear.
"The deceased was a man who had done many bad things, but due to various reasons, including the lack of evidence, he escaped justice and was not caught by the police.
Another actor tried every means to get close to him in order to take revenge.
And he discovered that the deceased and the director were actually boyfriend and girlfriend. It was difficult for him to kill the deceased because the deceased was extremely vigilant.
Except for his accomplices who did bad things and his girlfriend, the director, he doesn't trust anyone else.
Originally, the other actor was desperate, unable to find a chance to kill the deceased after so many years.
But there was a turning point. The deceased actually quarreled with the director. This was another actor's opportunity, and he hooked up with the director.
He found that the director did not know all the bad things the deceased had done, so if he wanted to get rid of the deceased, the director was a good breakthrough point.
However, the relationship between the director and the deceased was still very good, and the two had no plans to break up. The other actor found that he could not hook up with the director at all.
Although they didn't hook up, they established a certain relationship.
After the relationship between the two became better and better, another actor told the director about the deceased's crime.
Of course the director didn't believe it, that was his lover, and he thought the other actor was talking nonsense.
So the director resolutely went to question the deceased and asked him if he had done any of those outrageous things.
Of course the deceased denied it and kept coaxing the director.
Although the director believed the deceased on the surface, there was a thorn in his heart.
There is no airtight wall in the world. By chance, the director witnessed part of the evildoing process of the deceased.
She found out that what the actor said was true.
So she contacted that actor again.
The relationship between the two became better and better, and the director began to be very afraid of the dead, and his relationship with the dead became more and more distant.
Finally, the deceased noticed and discovered the relationship between the director and another actor.
I finally understood why the director came to question him at that time. It turned out to be the actor who told the director.
And for so many years, the actor did not touch the deceased. The deceased believed that he did not necessarily want to kill him, but that he was probably an actor playing the role of a police undercover and wanted to investigate him secretly.
But the deceased was planning to take action. He was determined to get rid of the actor. If he could get rid of him without anyone noticing, he could only use the director.
He doesn't want his girlfriend, the director, to stay out of the situation. Once both of them commit crimes, the director will never escape his grasp.
So originally his co-director planned to get rid of that actor.
Unexpectedly, the director actually fell in love with the actor. The deceased did not know it and thought that the relationship between the two was only superficial.
The director ostensibly promised him, but actually teamed up with another actor to stun the deceased.
The deceased person woke up and realized that the actor also wanted to kill him and was not an undercover police officer who came to investigate him. He also understood that the director actually changed sides in the end.
Finally, the deceased was tied up by another actor, disembowelled, and his heart, which had been drained of all the dirty evil, was cut out.
And told him that no one would care about him anymore, and he became a movie in the eyes of the world.
This is the whole story." Bai Chen told all the stories completely.
It clearly explains why the director would be with another actor and betray him, and also explains the change in the relationship between the three.
"It's very exciting. That's all the story. You told it very clearly." The short captain confirmed Bai Chen's story.
"This is the end of the second turtle soup. 35 minutes have passed. For the last turtle soup, you need to guess the complete story within 25 minutes. Otherwise, I'm afraid someone among you will die." The short captain reminded.
Everyone.
"Time will pause here. Now bring out the second delicious meal. As before, after eating this dish, you will fall into a deep sleep, but the rules will be different.
The rules will be introduced later, let’s give a reward to the shadow who guesses the answer this time.” said the short captain.
There are actually rewards?
"Why was there no reward for the person who guessed the answer in the last round, but there is one this time?" someone asked.
"Because, this time it's more difficult. Don't worry, whoever guesses in the next round will also be rewarded." The short captain said calmly.
"The reward this time is the mystery pocket watch." After the short captain finished speaking, he took out a small pocket watch from his arms.
"The function of this pocket watch is to be able to go back to a period of time, but the price paid is very high, and it will be paid with your lifespan.
As for how long you can go back and how much life you need to pay for it, you can study it slowly, I won't go into details." After the short captain finished speaking, he handed the pocket watch to Ying.
This is an artifact.
Everyone is very jealous, this is equivalent to a second life!
If you encounter fatal danger, you can activate this pocket watch and go back to the past to avoid fatal danger. It can be called a life-saving artifact.
Bai Chen was also very excited. This pocket watch is indeed very powerful.
Especially for evil gods, Bai Chen's lifespan is very long. It is possible that the earth's life span has expired and exploded, but he is not dead yet.
It is equivalent to having unlimited use of this pocket watch, making it instantly invincible.
Lin Yan was indeed right. There were indeed many treasures in this strange story that could enhance his strength.
It was only the first day that I got such a powerful artifact, and the harvest would be even richer in the next few days. After all, there is still a god's little brother waiting for me to save.
But when Bai Chen got this mysterious pocket watch artifact, he realized that it wasn't as powerful as he thought.
Mysterious pocket watch (treasure)
Effect: You can go back to a period of time, up to 12 hours, and will cool down for one day, and can only be used three times.
Price: For every minute you go back to the past, you need to pay one year of life.
This price can be said to be extremely high, and ordinary people simply cannot afford it.
The lifespan of an ordinary person, which lasts over a hundred years, can go back at most an hour or two.
The key is that it can only go back to a maximum of twelve hours, and it will cool down for one day. Moreover, this prop has a limit on the number of times it can be used, and it will be scrapped after three times.
It seems that the effect is greatly reduced, and it is not as powerful as imagined.
But it's still possible. It's equivalent to having the opportunity to regret. When faced with a choice, you have three bottles of regret medicine.
