Witch, Open Your Eyes Chapter 78: Sixth day Part One

Un-edited so please don’t kill me if you find anything wrong, please gently commenting so I can fix it. Thank you.

On the first floor hall, lay two people.

Outside the window, the sky has gradually brightened, the gloomy weather that has been hanging for a few days suddenly shows the sign of clearing . The villa had been in darkness for a few days and the few remaining people had already been exhausted, now there is a ray of sunlight through making everyone somewhat relieved.

If possible, I hope there is no more death, Fang Daichuan thought so, stepping forward and looking at the people lying on the ground.

Yang Song had been dead for a long time, her body was stiff, dried foam mixed with blood poured out from her mouth and her body was twisted into a weird posture. Fang Daichuan’s emotions towards her were really complicated. Feeling that it is disrespectful to stare at the face of the deceased, he turned his head halfway.

Next to Ding Zihui’s corpse, Li Sinian squatted down and moved her limbs. When Li Sinian went out, he took a knife, Fang Daichuan didn’t know where he was hiding it. He moved just like usual. He pushed back Ding Zihui’s long hair and saw that there were two bruises on her neck and her hair was messy.

“How did you find the body?” Li Sinian asked.

Du Wei blinked: “After you left, I was sitting and drinking in the middle of the mountain. Somehow I felt a little uneasy, so I went up and checked the situation. When I arrived, you had left. Yang Song was dead under a tree. I took two steps forward and saw Ding Zihui lying on the side of the road with a wooden crossbow in his hand and a syringe nailed to the tree next to it. It happened that Hui Hui was worried about me and came out to find me and together we moved them back.”

He said as he handed the crossbow to Li Sinian. Li Sinian played with it for a while. It was a hand-made crossbow. There was just enough space for the syringe and the needle was shot out using propulsive force. It seems that the person who shot him behind the wooden house last night was indeed Ding Zihui.

(T/N : Alright, so, because I am extra and I am also curious, here is a picture of a handmade crossbow that I got from Baidu.)

“When we arrived, we only saw Yang Song lying on the ground, not Ding Zihui.” Li Sinian raised his eyes and asked the important question.

Du Wei shrugged: “I am sure that they shot poison at each other. There is probably a time difference. Didn’t the manual say that the poisoning could last for half an hour before death came?”

Li Sinian found the pinhole on Ding Zihui’s body, on the side of her neck, he nodded with a smile, but did not say anything.

Chen Hui was drenched, sat down on the chair with her head lowered, wrapped in Du Wei’s big shirt, she said with her face covered. “They’re all dead… we’re the only ones left…” She whispered, there was no emotion in her voice.

Outside the window there is a sound of a crashing wave tearing the shore.

Du Wei hurriedly stepped forward to coax her and put her on his lap: “Don’t be afraid, it’s over, the four of us will survive, ok?”

Chen Hui hesitated, thinking that she couldn’t say anything in front of Fang Daichuan and Li Sinian, Du Wei saw it, smiled and pulled her to the corner. The two sat next to each other and started talking.

Fang Daichuan glanced left and right before coming to Li Sinian’s side.

“Why are they still hiding? Niu Xinyan’s faction switching card must have been given to them. When the daybreak comes, as soon as they change their factions, the game will be over.” Fang Daichuan said in a low voice.

Li Sinian’s face was not relaxed: “I don’t think so.”

“What do you mean?” Fang Daichuan turned around and asked in a low voice.

Li Sinian pointed to the bruise on the corpse’s neck: “Ding Zihui has a crossbow arrow in her hand, when she ambushed me or Yang Song, she was shooting from a long distance, so why is there a bruise on her neck? She used two poison vials to ambush me, one was used to kill Yang Song. Then, the last syringe that was nailed to the trunk next to the body, who was she shooting at?”

Fang Daichuan glanced at the corner, the young couple were leaning together affectionately, Chen Hui lowered her head and leaned on Du Wei’s chest, Du Wei’s expression was still drunk, he lowered his head and lightly pecked on the tip of her ear. Fang Daichuan trembled: “Is it Du Wei? He was very concerned about these girls before. He rushed out to see Niu Xinyan but after Ding Zihui died, he was extraordinarily calm and rational.”

Li Sinian shook his head: “I don’t know, but if it’s not Du Wei then it’s Chen Hui, there’s no one else.”

His last words were soft, almost sighing.

Yes, there is no one else on this island.

“Forget it,” Fang Daichuan said in frustration, “I don’t care who they did, I’m not a police officer. Anyway, we’re two-to-two now and they don’t want to hurt us. After we vote, we’ll go back and lock the door and wait for the helicopter to pick us up tomorrow.”

Daybreak came and it was almost eight o’clock. Fang Daichuan suddenly remembered the card that appeared out of nowhere on beer belly. He remembered his fear, involuntarily reached out and touched Ding Zihui’s pocket. There was a thin piece of paper in her pocket, Fang Daichuan’s heart was beating wildly, and he carefully pulled it out.

It was a corner torn from a notebook and folded into a square piece of paper. Fang Daichuan took a deep breath and unfolded it.

On the piece of paper is a familiar handwriting, signed with a familiar name.

Fang Daichuan’s fingers instantly tightened.

“What’s wrong?” Li Sinian saw his expression changed, he leaned over and took the small note from his fingers.

——The autograph was bold and domineering, the design was sharp but the corners were soft and beautiful with the familiar three words “Fang Daichuan”.

Li Sinian also go silent.

Fang Daichuan remembered that night when he knocked on the girl’s room door, Ding Zihui cautiously coped with him and wanted to ally with him, but he rushed out before the words were even spoken, followed by Li Sinian being poisoned and jumping into the sea, a night of soul-crushing and thrilling events. He had long forgotten this signature.

(T/N : On chapter 31)

What was Ding Zihui’s expression at that time? What did she say again?

—— Ding Zihui held the paper and looked at it for a while, then smiled and put it away. “When I go back, I will post it on Weibo. Maybe I’ll be able to get more followers.”

Fang Daichuan closed his eyes, the smile on her face vividly showed in his mind.

Li Sinian pulled down the curtains and unfolded it to cover the two bodies from foot to head. It is a Chinese rule that the dead are the most important, even though there was so much wrong and right done in life, when the person is dead, the past is gone, right? The young girl’s exquisite figure fluctuated under the thick fabric. If it hadn’t been for this disaster, she would have been sitting with her phone, browsing Weibo, putting on skin care and wondering if she could grab the new lipstick limited edition this year.

Why come here and have your life cut short over a feud that happened over a decade ago?

Fang Daichuan stood silently in front of the two corpses and made a cross on his chest. He ignored the mocking eyes of Du Wei and Chen Hui.

The clock in the corner struck eight, and everyone stood up.

“Everybody open your eyes; it’s daytime. Please swipe your cards in turn.” The machine’s voice was still flat and monotone.

They took turns to swipe their fingerprints, listening to the machine report as usual: “The current number of survivors: 4, the game continues.”

Chen Hui and Du Wei looked at each other.

“Let’s not vote today, two to two, we can’t do anything anyway, the votes will be tied.” Li Sinian discussed with the other party.

Chen Hui’s eyes circled the faces of the two of them: “That might not be the case. At this moment, the third party hasn’t moved yet. It’s uncertain who is the Judas that harbours evil intentions among the four of us.”

The situation came to standstill and the four of them stood in front of the machine and looked at each other.

Fang Daichuan opened his mouth and was about to say something when he suddenly felt the floor under his feet suddenly shake! His right hand reflexively pulled the corner of Li Sinian’s clothes.

(T/N : It is voting time!!!! *drum roll*)
