"Do you know? There are new victims in the murder case in the old town."

On August 8, at 12:30 noon, the heat of summer makes the streets look like steamers.

On the crowded street, a group of students who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old stood under the shade of the pedestrian street.

The dinner at the barbecue restaurant in Hongcheng No. 1 Middle School, Grade 2, 1st, Hongcheng No. 1st Middle School is about to begin. The young people who decided to relax for the last time before the start of school rarely put down the pressure temporarily. They were drinking drinks and chatting with each other.

"The news from our city this morning was all mosaic."

A girl with long hair over shoulder held a cell phone in her hand and pretended to be solemnly speaking to her friends beside her: "I heard that most of the victims' bodies are incomplete, and some of them are difficult to identify even their identities..."

"Closing your fragrant little mouth, respecting the dead!"

He shouted softly, a girl with a tall horse of at least 1.8 meters long and a ponytail with a waist patted her shoulder heavily, interrupting her speech. She glared at her eyes and said angrily: "We are going to have a dinner now. Are you still saying this? Are you planning to be stuffed with blood and fat after I wait!"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Without any guilt, the girl straightened out her scattered hair that had been photographed, and continued to say, "Xiao Liu... It is said that those dead..."

After saying that, she didn't care about the classmate's eyes that were having dinner with her in the same class, but she still had a headache. She laughed at herself very badly.

——This kind of person cannot pass the political review and psychological test alone!

A tall boy who was half a head taller than most of the people present heard this.

He was originally talking to Shao Qiming about his future academy ambitions, but now he was attracted by the topics of girls and came over to interject: "My home is in the old city. I heard that those dead people are elderly people living alone, single women, guys who go out in the middle of the night... In general, the murderer is a waste who bullies the weak and is afraid of the strong."

With his figure, this sentence is really convincing.

"Even if you are a waste who bullies the weak and fears the strong, you are a lunatic who dares to kill people. Don't show off. Call more people when you go out recently, be careful." A friend frowned and suggested.

"There are too many lunatics recently, and I don't know if the police can catch this lunatic as soon as possible." Some people are also worried.

As for this topic, everyone started talking, and the atmosphere became hot.

Recently, as the school starts, many strange rumors have emerged one after another. Even high school students who should turn a blind eye to the outside world have learned a little about the panic and confusion in the overall environment due to the discussions of their family members.

Their discussion is not just about chatting and gossip, but also about comforting each other's panic and uneasiness, using group of peers to numb themselves and dealing with these "abnormalities" that occur around them.

"Speaking of this, where is Su Zhou? Aren't his family full of police officers?"

During the discussion, a girl suddenly thought of a fan of a strange and horror incident in her class: "He must know some inside story!"

"He didn't come today, saying he was feeling a little uncomfortable?"

Shao Qiming blinked. He was not very good at lying, and he used a very unconvincing sentence, even with a questioning sentence as a reason: "...It seems that he is feeling uncomfortable and has a stomachache... Just take it seriously."

"He is sick? If he doesn't want to come, he can't. This reason is so bad. I went to junior high school and high school together for five years, and I haven't even seen him sneeze!"

"Wow, the virus that can make Brother Zhou sick or even go out to eat barbecue? If so, I'm afraid that everyone in the city will die now!"

"Call me and ask about the situation. If you don't have a beef every day, you can solve the amount of fat beef in twenty plates of beef tongues, twenty plates of cow bones and thirty plates of fat beef in one hour. The barbecue tastes boring."

He nodded in agreement. A classmate next to him was also a decisive and decisive person. He simply picked up his cell phone and called.

Didi...

"Awei? What's the matter with me?"

The phone was connected, and a sound of a little low and muffled sound came from the other end: "Didn't you go to a dinner party? Why do you still have the leisure to look for me?"

"Listen to this sound, you actually caught a cold?!" The boy named Awei showed an extremely shocked expression on the other end of the phone: "Is the world going to be destroyed??"

Shao Qiming, who knew some of the inside stories, smiled bitterly on the side

——At this time, you still dare to answer the phone... You are really talented and brave.

"Actually nothing, I just want to ask... I'm sorry to disturb you from rest." This dull nasal sound is indeed not a false statement. Awei, who felt that disturbed others' rest, felt a little embarrassed: "It's that, there is a murder case in the old city. Do you know some inside story? After all, your family is a policeman. Is there any news?"

"If there is any inconvenience, I don't need to say anything, I will ask casually!" After saying that, Awei thought of something and hurriedly added.

"A murder case..."

The sound line lengthened, and Su Zhou's voice on the other end of the phone became meaningful, "This matter...bang!"

"Wait, I have something to do with it, I'll talk about it later."

Perspective transformation.

The ground was filled with scattered photos and paper scraps, and a room filled with the smell of corpses and blood.

Everything was knocked over, the table and cabinet were swept aside, and in the middle of the empty floor, there was a complex magic array that seemed to be drawn with mercury. At the core of this magic array, there was a middle-aged man tied tightly with a nylon rope.

His mouth was stuck with tape, and only his neck and eyes could move freely. The middle-aged man was still sleeping, and there was a cross symbol painted with holy water on his forehead, which made him feel a moment of clarity that he hadn't felt for a long time.

But now, he was awakened by the sound of Su Zhou's speech. The man looked around and noticed his own situation. He immediately began to struggle in shock and made a "whimper" sound.

"call!"

Just as he was struggling, a long spear swept across, bringing a strong wind, and the spiral-like tip of the spear was steadily on the middle-aged man's forehead.

The purple-green magic fire was burning at the tip of the gun, emitting a magnificent light like a nebula, while also causing the middle-aged man who was trying to speak to shut his mouth firmly.

He tried hard to raise his head, and the middle-aged man saw a beautiful boy shrouded in the shadows, staring at him with a look of pity or indifference. The pressure at the upper end of the dragon and snake spiritual energy level made his body start to spasm and then completely exhausted.

"You're awake."

He said hello and then raised his phone again. Su Zhou smiled again and said to the classmate on the other end of the phone: "Although there are many things that cannot be said, I can tell you that the murder case in the old city is about to end - the murderer has been found, and the news will probably be reported in a day or two."

Although there was a smile on his face, Su Zhou's eyes were extremely indifferent, and his relaxed tone would look like a normal big boy if he didn't look at the horrible situation around him.

After a while of greeting with the classmates, Su Zhou hung up the phone.

He twisted his wrist, lifted the middle-aged man's chin with the tip of his gun, lifted his head, and forced him to look straight into his eyes.

Looking at the man's fearful, puzzled and confused eyes, Su Zhou did not have any pleasure of abuse, and there was even a trace of deep sadness in his eyes.

"Li Zhi, the marketing manager of Zhenghui Real Estate, originally lived in 402, Building 9, Liyu Community, with a wife and a daughter. He lives in harmony on weekdays, without any infidelity or family instability. He lives a happy and fulfilling life and everything is well."

"But in the past three months, your wife and daughter have suddenly moved away and cut off contact with you. You have also moved from Liyu Community to this old building in the old city and took a long vacation at the company... Do you know why this is?"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

Listening to the other party's chaotic whine, Su Zhou nodded and said calmly: "You must be wondering, why would you encounter such a common thing? You obviously did nothing, but your wife and children were separated, and you would be brought to me by someone like me?"

"Do you want to know the truth?"

"Woooooooooooooo!" Although the middle-aged man could not speak, he nodded desperately. He was now confused, and coupled with the tortures he had suffered in recent days, his fragile spirit could not support his thinking at all.

Facing Su Zhou's inquiry, what else could he do besides agreeing? He could only nod his head desperately, and even death would be clear.

"Now, I'll tell you the truth."

Su Zhou didn't play with his thoughts, and he said bluntly: "You have been dead long ago."

As the middle-aged man suddenly opened his eyes, Su Zhou told the truth lightly: "Li Zhi, as a human, you died five years ago. Since then, your soul has been swallowed by monsters from the doomsday dusk in another world, and your body has been occupied - what I am listening to is not the person "Li Zhi". It is the "protective shell" made by the real demon of the dusk in order to lurk, using his soul residue."

"Recently, the spiritual energy has also awakened, allowing you to go out to hunt down living people every night, cut off their heads, condense their blood and energy, and give this demon more choices of faces - in the future, it can give up your face that is no longer valuable, use other people's faces, hide in the city, and cause chaos, suspicion and destruction."

After saying this, Su Zhou put away his spear, turned around, raised his hand, pulled up the tight blinds that covered the windows, and let the bright noon sunlight shine into the room.

After Su Zhou finished all this, he sighed long.

"I could have killed you long ago, but I set rules for myself that I will never hurt innocent people who know nothing - at least those who I think are ignorant."

"In order for the part of the soul that belongs to human beings to rest, you must know the truth."

Turning his head again, Su Zhou's side face was illuminated by the sun, revealing a sacred meaning, while the other side was in the shadow, and he could only see the blue-purple dragon eyes releasing a cold light.

The expression mixed with stern, sympathy and sighing was directly reflected in the man's eyes.

"Woo, woo woo woo?! woo woo woo!!"

He looked surprised, as if he wanted to laugh and cry, the middle-aged man named Li Zhi twisted his body wildly. He looked at the fake compassionate young man in front of him with hatred. He did not believe this absurdity...

...

etc……

The moment when a man begins to doubt his own abnormality, there is a crisp sound of breaking sounding in the deepest part of his mind and soul.

Something rose from the deepest part of the spirit, the center of the residue, and the memory obscured by some kind of power returned to the surface of Li Zhi's thinking under the light of the spirit released by Su Zhou.

The man suddenly recalled the scene when he died five years ago.

——It was a dusk where clouds gradually accumulated, dimmer than the night.

Humming a song, he stuffed his wife into the wrapped umbrella and took it out. His daughter also embroidered a cute pink rabbit on it - of course, it will leak a little water, but who cares about this!

"What did my wife do tonight~"

And just when I was looking forward to it and returned home with an umbrella, the heavy rain was pouring down, and the thick clouds blocked all the sunshine and caused everything to fall into darkness.

The invisible shadow surged out from the cracks in the other world that had been cracked at some time, wrapping up the self walking in the alley.

Indescribable evil invades the body, swallowing the soul and spirit.

【The True Demon at Dusk】

The lowest and most vicious monster from another world, the monster with destruction, doomsday and dusk as its roots.

It uses the body and soul of intelligent life as a hatching vessel, and uses the residue of the soul to make shells and skins like "now Li Zhi" to protect the fragile self before hatching - all the human residues that have long been dead will not realize that they are already dead, and will hum a song and go home, spending the incubation period called "embryo" with their wives, husbands, children, relatives and friends.

[Everything is silent. I am already dead.]
