Chapter 166 -166: Double Doubt

Chen Ke leaned against the door of the gun shop, scrutinizing the video on his cell phone.

First, it was certain that an iPhone 3G couldn’t support a memory card, and Chen Ke had never transferred this video to his new phone.

This video was definitely not normal.

He recalled the source of the video; it was a week ago, in the cheap motel he had rented, hidden within a spy camera in the alarm clock set up by the landlord, equipped with a memory card storing this video.

It was mixed in with many other surreptitiously recorded videos, making it seem quite ordinary.

The video’s content was very simple. It started pitch-black, as if the camera’s angle was bad during the secret recording, failing to capture the image properly, but at the same time, there were various ambiguous female voices in the background.

In the next ten seconds, amidst the dark background, a woman’s heart-wrenching scream could be heard, so piercing that it was unbearable to listen to a second time, filled with tragedy and resentment.

Lastly, the most frightening part of the video arrived; the all-encompassing blackness slowly receded to reveal that this darkness was actually a woman’s eyes, with pupils and sclera both black, clearly not something of a normal human.

“Hehe… where’s the sun…”

“Where’s the sun…”

Chen Ke played the last segment over and over and then paused the video exactly when the woman’s face was fully revealed.

This woman had an Asian face, thin features, and her skin was somewhat pale.

Her teeth were as sharp as those of a rodent, and green mucus continuously flowed from the narrow nostrils beneath her slender nose.

The woman’s hands had only four fingers, and she had a constant habit of wiping her nose. Although the video was paused, Chen Ke always felt that the woman’s eyes seemed to be watching him.

The video itself was definitely filled with problems; Chen Ke found it hard to believe it was secretly recorded. It looked more like the strange woman had recorded it herself, hoping for it to be seen.

How was it recorded? Using the motel’s spy camera? Chen Ke didn’t think so. A video couldn’t just end up in his phone without reason.

Chen Ke pinched his chin, pondering.

Perhaps, the memory card in the motel was a transcendent item, capable of infinitely copying the stored video onto any playable medium?

But Chen Ke quickly dismissed this speculation. If the memory card itself was the issue, then it should have stuffed all videos into the iPhone 3G, not just this one.

If it wasn’t the storage medium that was faulty, then it must be the video itself that had issues.

Although his memory wasn’t very clear, he remembered that when he first watched the video at the rented place, the woman in the video said she would come for him in seven days, but now it had changed to two days.

Counting on his fingers, it seemed the timing was correct…

Chen Ke was puzzled; was this still the same video? If so, it was too weird—could this video actually keep track of time and change its message accordingly?

At this moment, the woman in the video suddenly smiled at Chen Ke, sticking out a purple, snake-like tongue, and then she left the frame. Now, the video only showed a bed and a wall…

A chill ran down his spine, and all the hairs on his body stood on end.

Now, Chen Ke wasn’t afraid of such strange things, but he didn’t want to encounter something like this without any preparation.

Suddenly, the phone crashed from the video interface, returning to the home screen. Chen Ke hurriedly reopened the photo album app, only to find it completely empty.

“Where’s the sun…”

A woman’s voice echoed in Chen Ke’s mind, as if it was distant on the horizon yet close to his eyes. He frowned and looked around,

he knew that some trouble had targeted him…

Opportunity City, Spiritual Ability Administration’s affiliated hospital.

Diana Prince sat in her underwear on a chair, her left arm in a splint, cradled in front of her chest. Her forehead and collarbone were bandaged, and she had a bandage wrapped around her right waist and abdomen.

The battle at the factory last night had given her a tough time, her left shoulder was dislocated, she had a fractured upper arm, strained muscles in her waist and abdomen, and her collarbone also showed signs of fracture.

It was all thanks to that combined monster, whose powerful punches, despite being blocked with a shield, were still potent enough to injure.

But due to Diana’s and Bader’s outstanding performance, they significantly reduced the casualty rate for P.W.A.T and saved many lives.

That was precisely why Diana couldn’t continue with field work for the time being, so she was forced to decompress and temporarily transfer to a clerical position.

The lost Spiritual Ability Pistol had been found, matching the one registered in the system.

This morning, a colleague from the forensic identification department handed over the fingerprint analysis report of the firearm to Diana. Unfortunately, the fingerprints on the pistol were wiped clean, indicating that the opponent was highly professional.

Diana also reconfirmed the gun’s owner and registration information over the phone. Even though there were some discrepancies in the timeline, it indeed belonged to Parker.

Diana didn’t believe in the whole “time travel” thing, even though this world was crazy, she had never seen a time traveler.

After decompressing, she dressed and left the hospital. At this moment, she was no longer a Spiritual Ability User, but rather a 28-year-old injured woman with limited mobility.

“Remember to come back at 9 p.m. every day to change your dressings,” the nurse called out after her.

“I know!” she replied helplessly.

Just as she stepped out, she received a call from her old classmate, Aileen.

“Did you find the gun?” Aileen asked straightforwardly.

“Yes, just last night. Your information is really timely,” Diana responded.

“Great, let’s meet at the old place at 11 a.m.,” Aileen decided on her own.

“You’re in Opportunity City now?” Diana was surprised.

“Yeah, I arrived last night. The case concerning Parker has now been escalated to the highest level by our research institute. We get word of any development,” Aileen said proudly.

“It seems you are more anxious than I am…” Diana said while touching her forehead.

“We need more detailed information to help unlock the secrets of Parker’s body. Don’t you think it’s fun? A person who’s dead but still alive, like an unbreakable lie,” Aileen laughed.

“It sounds like a third-rate sci-fi TV show, Aileen, you watched quite a few of those in college…” Diana sighed.

“The universe is so wonderful, showing us many impossibilities that challenge our perception, but I’m ready to uncover all the answers,” Aileen laughed.

“Good luck then, Miss Wang. I’m going to sleep for a bit, and we’ll catch up at 11 a.m.” Diana said. Since last night, she hadn’t closed her eyes, and after a high-intensity battle without any food, she felt extremely tired.

“Oh, poor Diana, going to sleep hugging a pillow again. What will you dream of? Muscle men or electric horses?” Aileen joked.

“I’ll dream of you wearing Hello Kitty pajamas, hugging a pillow, trying to climb into bed,” Diana replied coldly.
