Ten minutes ago.
Scarlett Jennings and Amber Livingston just left a house in the community with the police officer in charge.
The incident began with a report in the morning, a father accused his own son of drug abuse.
When Scarlett Jennings and the police arrived at the scene, they found that the so-called drugs were just wax granules the son had bought online. The bright colors were mistaken for drugs, and the father, worried he couldn’t persuade his son, decided to call the police to hand the child over to state education.
Netizens had just watched the blunder and were leisurely chatting in the live broadcast’s comment section. Scarlett Jennings’ team’s car had barely driven for a short distance when it nearly collided with a hearse that suddenly darted out from the intersection.
The hearse driver immediately stuck his head out and harshly cursed at the show’s driver.
Seeing the situation, the patrol car ahead backed up, and a police officer got out and walked over to inquire,
"What’s going on?"
As he spoke, he glanced at the two vehicles’ situation and then addressed the hearse driver, "Don’t you know you need to slow down when turning from a small road onto a big road?!"
The hearse driver’s face changed upon seeing the police officer and police car. After hearing this, he quickly admitted fault sheepishly,
"It’s my bad, I was in a hurry to deliver the body to the funeral home and drove a bit fast. Luckily, nothing happened, I’ll definitely fix it."
The hearse driver said this, and the grieving family member in the passenger seat immediately chimed in, pleading sorrowfully. Seeing the special situation, along with the driver’s good attitude in admitting fault, the police officer waved them off, allowing them to leave.
Just as the other vehicle was starting up to leave, Scarlett Jennings suddenly spoke up from inside the car, "We can’t let them go."
Seeing that those around her were apparently confused, she decisively pulled out a piece of talisman paper and quickly whispered something in her mouth.
Then the viewers in the live broadcast only saw her say to the air,
"Stop that hearse."
Within seconds of Scarlett Jennings speaking, the hearse that had just moved a few meters suddenly stalled and stopped in place.
The show’s photographer inside the car looked astonished, while Amber Livingston gazed at Scarlett Jennings with some fear.
He just saw it.
Right when Scarlett Jennings finished chanting the spell, a familiar Big Ghost suddenly appeared outside the car. Upon hearing Scarlett’s words, it flew at the departing hearse, and sat abruptly onto its hood, causing the hearse to stall.
Before Amber could express his feelings, Scarlett Jennings had already gotten out of the car to approach the hearse.
The photographer hurriedly followed. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
The police officer ahead watched curiously as Scarlett Jennings pointed at the hearse in front and said,
"We can’t let them go. The driver has blood on his hands."
The officer immediately appeared alert, "Are you saying he’s a wanted criminal?!"
But it doesn’t add up, because if he were a wanted criminal, why didn’t he notice anything earlier?
Scarlett Jennings continued,
"I don’t know if he’s a wanted criminal."
Scarlett Jennings said, "But he carries more than one death on him. Moreover... there’s no sign of a deceased person on their hearse."
The hurried delivery to the funeral home was a lie.
Something fishy was clearly going on.
The officer felt a headache as he listened to Scarlett Jennings’ tone.
Though he knew that their show was about the mystical, but they couldn’t really suspect the driver and the car just based on her words, right?
Where’s the evidence?
Knowing the officer didn’t believe her, Scarlett simply said,
"Their car won’t start for now. You can check it directly. Just open the coffin, and you’ll know."
