Becoming Stronger After Death: I Keep Seeking Death in the World of the Universe.

Chapter 66: Cardboard Man

"Please take a seat, everyone! Please take a seat!"

Inside the venue, the host's voice came from the speakers.

The volume of music in the venue gradually faded.

The men and women who were originally dancing on the dance floor also stopped and looked towards the stage.

"It's time to choose the Prom King and Prom Queen!"

The host's voice sounded again, and the high-pitched tone instantly ignited the atmosphere of the entire venue!

The men and women in the audience immediately cheered enthusiastically!
"oh---!!!"

"There is a ballot on the table. Everyone has one. Please take a seat!"

Following the host's words, everyone attending the party returned to their seats, picked up their ballots and pens, thought for a while, and ticked the boxes for the king and queen in their minds.

Jason carried Carrie and Tommy back to their seats and patted their heads like he was coaxing children.

This made Tommy feel helpless.

Carrie smiled subconsciously.

Although Jason was a weird guy, he gave Carrie a good feeling.

She had never felt such pure emotion in one person.

"Please put a cross behind your favorite candidate and let's have the best dance party ever!"

"oh--!!!"

The young people cheered again.

Tommy glanced at Jason and sighed again.

But he hasn't forgotten his girlfriend's mission.

Tommy calmed down and looked at Carrie: "Our names are on the ballot. Wouldn't it be great if we were elected?"

He smiled and pointed to the stage: "Don't be nervous, just sit on the throne, wave the scepter, sing the school song, and show everyone how silly we are."

Carrie was also attracted by Tommy's words. She turned her head to look at the two thrones on the stage with a yearning smile: "So beautiful..."

"You are the one who looks good..."

Tommy looked at Carrie, his tone gentle and completely unstinting in his praise.

Carrie was just feeling a little touched when Jason next to her suddenly leaned over and stared at Tommy with his eyes under the hockey sticks.

Tommy paused, then raised his hands in surrender: "Okay, okay, you look good too."

Jason stood up again with satisfaction.

Tommy and Carrie looked at each other and suddenly laughed.

They actually felt that Jason, this big guy, was kind of cute and were not afraid of him anymore.

"Hey, listen to me, let's just vote for ourselves. Whether you're chosen or not, you're the prom queen tonight in my heart."

Tommy said, having already checked his and Carrie's names on the ballot despite her objections.

Seeing this, Carrie also took the risk and chose to express herself for once and voted for herself.

As the ballots were put into the cardboard box one by one.

It also means that tonight's party is coming to an end.

If it were a normal vote, Carrie, as a small town weirdo and a low-class person in school, would definitely not be elected.

But in order to take revenge on Carrie in front of everyone, Chris colluded with others early on and changed the final voting results.

Above the dark stage.

Chrissy and her boyfriend Billy are making final preparations.

"Once the bucket flips over, we run. Don't stay and watch the fun. Got it?"

Billy was tying the rope while giving instructions to Chris.

But Chris didn't respond to Billy. She was like a madman, staring at Carrie in the crowd below with a sinister smile on her lips.

"Are you listening? Huh?! Hey! Hey!"

Seeing that Chris still ignored him, Billy frowned, grabbed Chris's shoulders with both hands and made her look at him.

Chris then cried out in pain and said dissatisfiedly: "What are you doing!"

"When she comes on stage, you pull the rope, and then we run..."

Billy gave Chris instructions again.

But at this moment, Chris seemed to be really possessed by a ghost. She turned her head, her eyes still fixed on Carrie, and pushed Billy with both hands, as if she wanted him not to disturb her.

Don't know why.

This Chris is very malicious towards Carrie.

It was pure, unconditional malice. This forced Billy to raise his voice again: "Listen to me! Listen to me! If you get caught and tell anyone about this, I won't let you go! Do you understand?"

As he spoke, Billy's eyes became a little fierce.

"This is different from bullying Carrie in the bathroom. This is a crime! You'll go to jail if you get caught!"

Maybe Billy's eyes were too fierce.

Chris finally turned her gaze back. She gritted her teeth and squeezed out a voice: "I know!"

"The election results are in! It's so, so close! Drum roll! Drum roll!"

At this moment, on the stage below, the young host had already received the voting results and began to try his best to express emotions.

"Dong dong dong——!"

A meaningless drumbeat sounded.

"By one vote! The narrow winner is - Tommy Ross and Carrie White!!!"

The host waved his fist and cheered loudly!

Off the stage, Carrie's eyes widened. She couldn't believe she heard her own name!

obviously.

She wasn't the only one who didn't expect it.

Many people in the venue did not expect this either.

The scene was quiet for a while, and then a rhythmic and very loud applause broke out!
"Bang bang bang!"

Everyone turned their heads.

I saw a two-meter-tall sturdy man wearing a hockey mask clapping vigorously.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, as if they were awakened, and began to applaud!
"Crash!"

Soon the whole hall was filled with applause!

Cheers and screams also rang out!

In fact, most people still have a normal attitude towards Carrie.

Neither hate nor like.

As long as Carrie tries to break away from the influence of her fanatical mother, she will soon find many new friends.

In the original novel, because of the psychic power going out of control, the entire venue was massacred and half of the town was destroyed. This really shouldn't have happened.

"Let's go."

Tommy smiled, stood up, straightened his suit, and held out his hand to Carrie.

"Carrie! Great job!"

Someone in the crowd cheered!
At this time, the school song also sounded.

The happiness at this moment made Carrie feel like she was in a dream!
With a big smile on her face, she stood up, led by Tommy, and walked towards the stage.

Congratulations continued to be heard from people around.

Jason firmly carried out Xu Wang's instructions and followed the two of them closely.

The students around him also noticed Jason's actions.

Someone hesitated and wanted to stop it.

But looking at Jason's tall figure, he still couldn't muster up the courage.

In the end, Jason and Carrie went on stage together.

"Hahahaha!"

On the shelf above the stage, Chris laughed triumphantly as she watched Carrie go on stage as she had planned.

But the next second, Chris's expression immediately turned cold.

She held the rope in her hand and looked down at Carrie with cold eyes.

My body was shaking slightly, not sure if it was because of nervousness or excitement.

Xu Wang put a cardboard box on his body, leaving only his hands and a pair of eyes exposed.

The personal terminal in his left hand recorded all the crimes committed by the two without missing a single one.

There is clearly a conspicuous cardboard man standing next to it.

Chris and Billy didn't notice anything.

I really treated him as a cardboard box.

Until Xu Wang moved, and in order to get a close-up, he pointed the camera directly at Chris's face!

"Ouch! What hit me?!"
