I can rewind time to prevent death-Chapter 719 - 425 Ghost Apartment (Part Three)

Chapter 719: Chapter 425: Ghost Apartment (Part Three) Chapter 719: Chapter 425: Ghost Apartment (Part Three) With that thought, it made sense that Morrison had pursued him.

He glanced at the watch on his wrist, there were still five minutes left until midnight.

This watch was also bought by Yan Junze in Great Capital, USA, and it was very cheap. It was just for telling time, but the quality seemed quite good.

Although the crisis was imminent, Yan Junze still had ample time to review the materials.

He momentarily ignored the sensation of being targeted and quickly flipped through the photo album in his hands.

After putting down the first album, he picked up the second one and browsed through it at a very fast pace. Afterward, Yan Junze’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed.

He looked at the other photo albums on the desk. He had gone through all of them, but bizarrely, none contained Jacob’s photos.

Not a single one.

Whether it was in the photo albums, on the desk, bedside tables, or in the frames inside the display cabinets, there was no photo of Jacob to be seen.

It wasn’t that Jacob’s family didn’t have photos. In fact, there were many photos in his house, but any photo that included Jacob had the portion with him cut out or torn off, leaving a person-shaped blank space.

So much so that Yan Junze couldn’t find a trace of Jacob in any of these photos after searching through them all.

Even some photos that seemed to have included Jacob were burned.

In Yan Junze’s view, these photos probably couldn’t have had Jacob’s image cut out, so they were simply burned instead.

He couldn’t understand why the house didn’t keep a photo of Jacob, why destroy all the existing ones completely.

Thinking it over, he seemed to recall not seeing Jacob’s photos in the files in Vice President Charles’s office either.

Were they not curious about the absence of any photos of Jacob?

Perhaps they had once been curious but similarly failed to find a reason.

Boom!

Just then, the living room door was blasted open by a powerful force. Morrison stepped in, followed by Jacob who was suspended in the air and rammed into him once again, even letting out a piercing scream.

Yan Junze glanced at his watch, there were still two minutes left until midnight.

Morrison had already entered the living room and couldn’t be allowed to get too close.

Under normal circumstances, Yan Junze would choose to Rewind, but it seemed unnecessary at this moment.

With a thought, he activated the “Space-Time Lockdown,” targeting the living room of Jacob’s house, right when Morrison was hit by Jacob from behind and entered the living room.

By now, Morrison had entered the living room, but Jacob had not.

Whirring—

A sound that only Yan Junze could hear emanated as the area of the living room buzzed, instantly locked!

“Huh?”

Morrison was taken aback when he realized that Jacob, who had just been raging in the hallway behind him, was suddenly nowhere to be seen.

He strained his eyes, looking towards the hallway.

Outside it was eerily silent, and nothing was there.

The ferocious Jacob seemed to have vanished in an instant.

Surprised, Morrison looked around. He stood in Jacob’s living room, where everything was unnaturally quiet, as though everything that had just happened was an illusion.

There was no sign of Jacob at all, no sign of the fight that had just taken place.

“What’s going on?”

Morrison was completely stunned.

He wondered if Jacob was preparing some Ultimate Move and had deliberately concealed himself, just waiting for Morrison to step out before launching a surprise attack.

Even for a Reaper like himself, he couldn’t underestimate Jacob’s surprise attacks.

He paused, then turned to look around the living room again. It was all very ordinary, covered with dust.

The Reaper Blind Spot he’d faintly sensed was now gone as well, as though at this very moment, he was the only one in this world.

With a moment’s hesitation, Morrison decided to go back outside the hallway. Being in the confined space of the living room suddenly made him feel uncomfortable.

Just to be safe, Morrison twisted the magnetic field around his body. If Jacob was waiting outside the door to ambush him, this would make his attack go completely off course.

It was strange. After Morrison twisted the magnetic field around him, he immediately noticed that everything in his vicinity, including the living room door, had become distorted.

Normally, the distortion of a magnetic field is invisible to the naked eye, only sensed by the person causing it, and even slightly weaker ordinary people would not feel the magnetic field being twisted.

“Why did it become visual?” Morrison was puzzled.

Everything here was too weird, unsettling him more and more. Without further delay, Morrison quickly stepped out of the living room door.

The next step did not need much thought; he would be standing in the hallway, fully guarded against Jacob’s ambush.

But the next second, as Morrison took a clear look at the scene after stepping out, his body violently trembled, almost exclaiming aloud.

In his field of vision, it was still the living room. He was still standing inside the living room. This time, however, he was inside the room, not near the living room door.

Turning his head to look, he realized that he had just walked out from the bedroom!

“What’s going on?”

Morrison stared at the eerie living room, then turned back to look at the equally silent bedroom behind him.

He had clearly intended to go to the hallway; how had he come out from the bedroom?

His mind was a mess at this moment, as if his consciousness had been infused with some sort of illusion?
