I can rewind time to prevent death

At this time, the likelihood of zombies committing the crimes had dropped to the lowest.

But if it’s ordinary people behind the crimes, why would they do this? What reason would make them deliver food randomly and cause other people to be entangled with strangenesses?

Is it just for fun?

Yan Junze suspected that it should not be just a joke, after all, there was only one Rock in this world.

Even though the exorcist team allowed security personnel in this district to assist with the investigation of the delivery men, it seemed that these suspects were familiar with the area and knew where the surveillance cameras were.

Therefore, the street surveillance had no footage of them. Or perhaps they were among the crowd, just in disguise, looking nothing like the delivery men in their uniforms.

With both exorcists and security personnel short-staffed, it wasn’t feasible to stop every delivery man on the street for interrogation, as that would leave no time for other tasks.

After all, it was now impossible to look anywhere on the streets without seeing a delivery man.

"This really is a deadlock!" Yan Junze frowned and glanced at Xiang Er, "Could it be that the Tianmeng exorcist team has run out of options and is passing the buck to me?"

Xiang Er was unable to provide a clear answer and simply stared silently at the pedestrians on the street, especially when a delivery man appeared, watching them intently as if every delivery person had become suspicious at that moment.

Yan Junze checked the time. It was just half-past seven in the evening. Around eight o’clock, people on the street would start to dwindle, and by around nine, there would hardly be anyone around.

He looked up at a hotel diagonally across the street and said to Xiang Er, "We’ll stay here tonight, let’s go book a double room first."

Xiang Er shook her head and said, "You book a single room. It’s more comfortable to sleep in a big bed, and I don’t need to sleep at night."

Yan Junze did not object, but when they went to book the room, the reception informed them that the double rooms were full and that only singles were available, deluxe ones at that.

Deluxe single it would be, then. Yan Junze wasn’t lacking money at the moment. He took out his ID card to register but didn’t head straight to the room with Xiang Er.

Since there was still time, he planned to follow up on the information sent by He Yun to the nearest home, which was right next to the hotel in the community—a man named Sun Chang Biao—to deal with the strangeness that occurred after they had ordered delivery and to see if he could find out more useful information about the delivery man.

At that moment, within the community next to the hotel, in room 003 on the second floor of block A.

A short-haired middle-aged woman was carrying a cup of freshly brewed tea, placing it in front of a sullen-looking, middle-aged man with his head hanging down.

The man sighed heavily, showing no other reaction but picked up the tea, blew on it twice, and carefully brought it to his lips.

However, all of a sudden, upon noticing the ripples on the surface of the tea close up, which seemed to contain a strand of hair, the man’s expression turned to one of terror as if he had been bitten by a snake, and he threw down the teacup with a splash.

Not only did the teacup shatter, but tea also spilled all over the floor.

"You foolish woman, you foolish woman, how dare you bring water for me to drink, why don’t you just poison me?" the middle-aged man cursed, "I told you, don’t drink water at home, we can’t have any water in sight here. Remember that!"

He stomped his right foot on the ground: "Go, pour out all the water in the kettle! Not a single drop should remain."
