Chapter 20 Breaking the Cycle
"That won't work either." Lin Feng shook his head again.
"First of all, it's very difficult for us to subdue him and get him to look out the window."
"Secondly, we don't know when the phenomenon will occur."
"Most importantly, he can close his eyes completely."
Ivan growled in frustration, "Damn it! I refuse to believe that with the entire plane on board, we can't control him!"
Lin Feng's mind raced, his gaze sweeping across the cabin. Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind like lightning!
"Rule... Red item!"
He recalled the horrific scene of the Wagner turning into a wax figure, and the explicit warning of Rule Five!
"Find the red item!" Lin Feng lowered his voice. "Rule number five says that red items cannot be touched; you should ask the flight attendant to handle them."
"The Wagnerian turned into a wax figure after being touched!"
"This indicates that the red item itself contains a powerful curse of the rules!"
"If we can get Sowin to touch the red object, perhaps we can use the power of the rules to 'eliminate' him!"
Once the plan was finalized, the group immediately mobilized some of the chosen ones, who then dispersed discreetly.
Pretending to stretch, his gaze swept across the area under his seat and in the corners within sight like a searchlight, searching for that crimson symbol of death and curse.
During the search, Bruce, the chosen one of the Raccoon Kingdom, who was hiding in the corner, let out another painful groan and slipped to the ground.
Flight attendant number 005 responded quickly to the call and handled the situation with the same efficient and indifferent manner.
In the brief moment when the flight attendant was dealing with Bruce and most passengers' attention was drawn to him!
"Found it!" Jinguji Rin, the chosen one of the Sakura Kingdom, exclaimed softly and waved to everyone.
The crowd immediately gathered around, and saw that Jinguji Rin was standing next to an empty seat, pointing to the area below the seat.
There, lying quietly, was a lipstick with a casing as bright as blood!
Everyone's hearts mentioned their throats!
Rule Five came to mind for everyone:
[Do not touch any items that do not belong to you, especially red items. If they appear in your area, please use the call button to inform a flight attendant, who will handle the situation.]
Now, the key question is: how do we get Sowin to "touch" this lipstick?
"Is taking it through gloves considered a violation of the rules?"
Carlos raised the question, his intention being clear: to touch Sowin while holding the lipstick, ensuring his own safety.
Everyone fell silent.
The rules do not clearly define the boundaries of "touching".
"Who has gloves? I'll get them!" Ivan growled irritably, ready to force himself on him.
"Wait." A calm female voice interrupted him.
The one speaking was Evelyn, the chosen one of the Fog City.
She had short, neat blond hair, icy blue eyes, a lithe figure, and a crisp, efficient movement that suggested she had received rigorous training.
As she took a pair of black gloves from the inside pocket of her trench coat and put them on, she said, "Let me do it."
As she spoke, she quickly put on her gloves and carefully picked up the bright red lipstick with her fingertips.
In an instant, everyone's heart leaped into their throats, their eyes fixed on her and the lipstick.
one second...
Two seconds...
Evelyn held her breath and waited for a minute, but the terrifying turn of events she had anticipated did not occur.
She gently moved her fingers to confirm that she was conscious and that there was nothing wrong with her body.
She breathed a sigh of relief and looked up at Lin Feng and the others:
"Gloves are effective; indirect contact will not trigger the rule. It can now be confirmed that 'touch' refers to direct contact between skin and the object."
The crowd felt somewhat relieved, at least the safety of the executors was now initially guaranteed.
"I'll carry out the final step," Evelyn continued, her tone leaving no room for argument. "I'm a professionally trained agent, and I have a greater advantage than you in terms of timing, movement, and emotional control."
Lin Feng nodded emphatically: "Be careful! The ultimate goal is to get the lipstick into direct contact with his skin!"
Evelyn nodded to indicate that she understood. Instead of acting immediately, she took out two transparent lip stickers and carefully applied them to her lips to create a physical barrier.
Then, she carefully unscrewed the lipstick and smeared the lipstick a few times on her lips, which were covered by lip stickers, staining them with that striking bright red.
After completing her preparations, she instantly switched to a slightly flustered and vulnerable expression seeking comfort, and quickly walked towards Sowin, who was sitting in his original seat with an empty look in his eyes, and naturally sat down in the empty seat next to him.
"Sir...I...I'm so scared..."
Evelyn's voice trembled slightly, and her body moved closer to Sowin, sending a signal that she needed protection.
Sowin numbly turned his head, his dark eyes unfocused, reacting only instinctively to any living thing that approached.
Evelyn was inwardly terrified, but outwardly remained gentle.
She raised her head, her eyes glazed over as she looked at Sowin, her voice carrying a hint of seduction: "Sir, could you give me a little courage?"
As she spoke, she suddenly leaned in and, with lightning speed, pressed her lips, covered with lipstick and lipstick, onto Sowin's bloodless lips!
Instantly separate!
Time seemed to freeze at that moment!
Sowin's body stiffened abruptly!
A flicker of disbelief and horror seemed to flash in those dark eye sockets!
The next second, a terrifying change occurred!
The red stain on his lips seemed to come alive instantly, like a living thing!
It rapidly erodes the surrounding facial skin at an alarming rate!
He suddenly raised his head, reached out as if to grab something, but instead lunged towards Evelyn, wanting to embrace her and die with her!
Evelyn was prepared; she sidestepped his attack and simultaneously kicked him hard in the chest.
Sowin's body was kicked backward, crashing heavily into the seat with a dull thud.
Just then, the red color spread to his chest and arms, and his body began to twist and take shape in a way that defied the laws of physics.
With fingers bent into an eerie posture, legs together, and back straight, it eventually transformed into a lifelike, bright red wax figure.
The cabin was deathly silent.
"It's...it's a success!" Carlos was the first to react, his voice trembling with excitement.
Just then, the curtain in the front cabin was lifted.
Xia Ning walked out slowly, her face bearing her usual flawless professional smile, her gaze sweeping over the red Sowin wax figure.
She clapped her hands gently, the sound clear and pleasant, echoing throughout the cabin:
"Congratulations, passengers, you have successfully discovered and removed the hidden rule."
"In recognition of your outstanding performance and calm response, the crew will be providing you with a special reward."
As she spoke, she turned around to gesture.
Two other flight attendants pushed a food cart filled with various exquisite delicacies and drinks out of the work area...
