LIVESTREAM: The Jury of Death
chapter 33

At this moment, someone else's phone suddenly rang.

Beep beep beep.

After everyone heard the sound of the notification, the room suddenly became quiet. It was so quiet that everyone's breath and heartbeats sounded. No one dared to speak, and no one dared to pull out his phone to read their messages.

Everyone wore a frozen expression on their faces.

Finally, after the silence, one could not endure it anymore. He pulled out his phone and looked at the messages.

"Notice of Death!"

"What's? What do you accept?”

“What do you accept?”

"MY. . . Death Notice.”

"Me too!"

"Me too!"

“F *ck! Are we being targeted?”

“Could someone prank us? Didn't they say that Death Notice was a card? Why did the Judge of Death suddenly start texting?”

“Yes, it must be fake. Someone must be playing us!”

"Once I know who it is, I will definitely kill him!"

Despite saying that, they were still very nervous, scared, and frightened.

Marcellus, who was silent the entire time, had a dark expression on his face. She looked really ugly as she slammed her phone onto the table.

He has received a short message that attracted attention:

—

Death Notice!

Topic: Marcellus

Crimes: drug trafficking, kidnapping, detention, rape, murder

Execution Date: 21 April 2021

Prosecutor: Judge of Death

—

Marcellus glanced at him coldly and snorted with disdain.

"Those who are not afraid to die, please come."

It was seven in the morning.

The Empire State Building is starting to get noisy.

A group of white collar workers stormed in. Everyone greeted each other and talked. They're all in a good mood.

"Hey, did you watch the death broadcast yesterday?"

“I have to watch it. I can watch anything now, but I just need to watch the death broadcast!”

"Me too! But my girlfriend did not dare to watch it. He said it was too scary and too bloody, but last night's episode scared me so much that my heart ached!”

Everyone was talking about the broadcast. They're all very excited about it.

Jack listened to them for a while and sat there with a normal expression, as if this had nothing to do with him. Then, he yawned lazily.

Shortly after, his colleagues arrived. After a brief conversation with them, Jack leaves.

"Hi's handsome!" Jack frowned. That's Aisyah's voice.

"You weren't expecting this, were you?" Aisyah ran towards Jack and raised her pretty little face to ask.

Jack glanced at her and coldly said, “You really suck! I see you everywhere!”

Ayesha pouted furiously and said, “Who told you to be so handsome and cool? Let me guess. Do you work in Empire State Building?”

“Take your time and guess. I'll eat!" jack said as he turned to leave.

“Hey, don't go. I haven't eaten either. Let's eat together. It's my treat. I still owe you fifty yuan.” Ayesha quickly chased after Jack.

Jack enters a fast food restaurant. Aisha followed behind him. He is a very handsome man and he is a very beautiful girl. When they went inside, hundreds of people looked over.

Jack walks directly to the booking area. He had been to the restaurant more than once. He knows all the locations very well. Even if he closed his eyes, he could still complete the booking process.

Rib steak, a cup of black coffee, and a—ini sandwich are Jack's breakfast.

Aisha simply ordered a sandwich, which cost a total of 42 yuan.

“This meal is for you, and we have nothing to do anymore. From today on, don't bother me anymore. got it?" said Jack.

Aisha snorted and said, “What do you mean? I still owe you eight bucks. Besides, we're not just exchanging benefits, are we?”

"What else? Do you want to make physical contact?" said Jack.

Aisha's small face suddenly flushed red, and her large watery eyes avoided Jack's bright gaze.

Jack purposely said that to make him back off and stop coming at him. Seeing him so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say, he said, “Eat fast, then go back to school and study hard. Get into a good university and stop following me.”

Aisha rolled her eyes in annoyance.

After breakfast, Jack took fifty dollars out of his wallet. “Taxi to school, or you'll be late!”

He turned and left.

When Aisha regained consciousness, Jack had already left the restaurant.

"Thank you!" Aisha took the bill and left with a smile on her face.

Meanwhile, Marcellus and the others had not slept all night. They smoke silently until dawn. Looking outside it was already daytime, they heaved a sigh of relief and relaxed their tense nerves.

Marcellus looked at everyone and coldly said, "What a useless thing!"

The bald man suddenly shouted, “Kakak! We are all wrong!”

Marcellus' body trembled. "What's wrong?"

“Sister Marcellus, look. Here it is mentioned that the time and date of implementation is the 21st. Today is just 17!” The bald man turned the phone for Marcellus to see.

Marcellus flew up and kicked him to the ground.

“F * your ck! Do you want to die by shouting so loudly? I don't care when he comes. I'm not afraid!" Marcellus cursed furiously, his heart racing.

"Yes! Yes, Brother Marcellus! I was wrong." The bald man's face was dull. He got up, bent his body, and retreated to the side.

Everyone took out their Death Notices and read them carefully. That was the 21st. There are still a few days left. At first, they just ignored it. They only think about whether it is true or not. They were nervous all night. But what about the 21st? Will they really die?

No one knows the answer.

Their fear of death did not go away. Instead, it was delayed. Their painful wait should be extended.

As to why they had received the Death Notice earlier, they were unsure. They had to wait until the 21st to find out if they would be executed.

Jack wanted to mentally torture them before the live broadcast, so he sent out their Death Notification ahead of schedule. He wanted them to understand that they would die in a few days and that they could do nothing. This will make them paranoid, and in the end they will fear their surroundings and be wary of everyone and everything around them. It was a different kind of mental torture.

The second reason was the Grim Reaper. Execution is quite difficult, especially since there are many subjects. He should carefully plan every detail—how everyone will die, technically—and then add variables. Changing circumstances and relying on the laws of things to influence the outcome is a huge project. It was not something that could be completed in a few hours.

For both reasons, Jack finally set the date 21.

Four days passed quickly.

Before long, the clock showed at 12 p.m. A new day has arrived.

It was April 21, 2021.
