For a moment, countless images flashed through Fukuzawa Yuko's mind——
From striking up a conversation with a woman holding a pair of shoes in her arms in front of the station, to working all night to move... the short-haired man, now she knew his name was Shuichi Imamura - Shuichi's memories from childhood were like a flood in an instant He rushed in.
Fukuzawa Yuko covered her face and screamed.
She backed away repeatedly, fell to the ground, quickly got up again, and ran towards the police station... She ran very fast, and she felt that her legs and feet were very strong.
"のびた人音を道にならべ,
The elongated figures line the asphalt road,
夜夜のなかを君と歩いてる,
Walking with you in this twilight..."
Yuta Ueshima, who was singing Mika Nakajima's classic song "Snow Flower", saw Yuko Fukuzawa running towards him in a hurry.
He has been singing at Nakano Station for more than three years. Yuta Ueshima has met all kinds of people, and he was also spotted by a record company for an audition, but in the end due to various reasons... some bosses are too perverted to let him play like this. The young man couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to go back to Nakano Station to continue singing.
He is handsome and can sing pretty well, and he has gradually developed some fans in the area.
All kinds of girls flirted with him, took his photos and videos, and promoted him everywhere. So he opened an account on some short video APPs, did some live broadcasts at fixed times every day, accepted rewards from fans, and occasionally Carrying goods for guitars, records, wigs, and shampoo, in short, making a living.
Some people rumored that he was kept by a rich woman, and others said that he slept with powder, which is pure nonsense.
Some rich women found Yuta Ueshima, but they couldn't agree on a price.
He did have sex one night with girls who often came to the station to listen to music. Some girls maintained a special relationship with him for a long time, but they were definitely not sleeping fans.
How could a poor singer like him have serious fans... All actions that evolve into a special relationship are the fruits of love at first sight or mutual love.
At this moment, in the front row who was watching Yuta Ueshima's performance, there was a young woman named Fujimori Airi who was of average appearance and had maintained an intimate relationship with him for about half a year apart from being a boyfriend and girlfriend.
To this day, the two of them still occasionally relive their old dreams.
Yuta Ueshima could see that Airi Fujimori was still attached to him, but he felt that it would be better to end the relationship as early as possible. It was unlikely that there would be a future between the two.
Faced with all kinds of accusations and slander, Ueshima Yuta was too lazy to defend himself.
No matter how severe the criticism, he would always appear very calm and always reply: "Ah, yes, yes, you are right."
When winter comes every year, Yuta Ueshima will quietly leave for a month and use the money earned from live broadcasts to go on a random, solo trip with no end in sight.
This habit has been maintained for seven years.
In the past seven years, he has been to glacial lakes in Northern Europe and seen the mysterious and gorgeous aurora; he rode on the African savannah and danced with lions through the car window in a safari park; he sneaked into the tropical rain forests of South America and was captured by some unknown creature. A bite from a venomous snake almost killed me on the Amazon River; I went deep into the Australian desert and caught a weird lizard...
Every time he travels, he takes a lot of photos and makes a beautiful photo album.
If he had lived another fifty years, he could have produced fifty-seven photo albums, which was the age when his mother died.
This kind of life is actually very exciting. But Yuta Ueshima still lacks a travel companion. To be precise, a life travel companion——
Yuta Ueshima admits that he is very carefree, flying around among the flowers like a butterfly, but in his heart, he actually wants to find a stable place to stay. He longs for a unique woman who can touch his soul.
.
Fukuzawa Yuko, who is running towards this side, might be such a woman.
Yuta Ueshima has noticed Fukuzawa Yuko for a long time. This woman is absolutely different from those vulgar fans who pester him every day to reward her, give her gifts, and ogle her.
For about three years, Yuko Fukuzawa would pass by the place where Ueshima Yuta sang every day, but she never glanced at him. His cold temperament and beautiful face seemed like an independent person in this conventional world.
Flowers deeply attracted Ueshima Yuta.
So, last Wednesday night, Ueshima Yuta posted a notice on his social media account to take a day off and suspend his singing, in order to create an environment where his confession would be undisturbed.
Unexpectedly, the confession that day ended in failure. Fukuzawa Yuzi had a look of disgust on his face.
To be honest, it was probably because his interactions with women over the years had been so smooth that Yuta Ueshima had forgotten what he had resolutely carried out when he was in school: "Confession is not a charge, but a trumpet for victory."
Principles of love.
He must have been too fond of Fukuzawa Yuzi and was carried away by his passion, forgetting that no matter how beautiful love is, it also requires means and strategies.
However, Yuta Fukuzawa's rejection and disgust towards him only aroused Yuta Ueshima's greater interest and firmer desire to win.
He decided to turn this decisive battle, which was determined by one goal, into a protracted and tough battle, and used all the skills in his life to continue to exert force and work for a long time until he finally conquered the fortress.
"手をつないでいつまでもずっと,
How I want to hold hands with you forever..."
As Yugi Fukuzawa ran closer and closer, Yuta Ueshima couldn't help but sing harder and harder, and the fans on the side also became excited.
It's probably only about ten meters away.
Yuta Ueshima's heart began to beat fast.
Yuko Fukuzawa's face was very flustered and pale, but strangely, Yuta Ueshima felt that she was particularly beautiful today, and her slightly melancholy temperament was extremely attractive.
She must have encountered something very urgent and troublesome. The opportunity to be Prince Charming is fleeting, how could Yuta Ueshima miss it?
He stopped singing and put down his guitar.
"Wait a minute!"
Yuta Ueshima walked out of the crowd, "Miss Yuko, please wait a moment, have you encountered something..."
…
Seeing the lover of his dreams turn into a wrinkled puddle of flesh on the ground, Yuta Ueshima, who was full of strength, was completely dumbfounded.
There were screams of terror all around.
"police,"
It took a while before Ueshima Yuta came to his senses and shouted: "Call the police! No, call the police!"
After shouting, he looked at his hands, how could he be so strong? He felt like he could easily lift the vending machine in the station.
He raised his head and saw that the women who were surrounding him to listen to his singing had already moved far away.
Only his old love Fujimori Airi is still standing there.
"Airi..." Yuta Ueshima suddenly felt a little warm in his heart, "You..."
Seeing the lover of her dreams turn into a wrinkled puddle of flesh on the ground, Airi Fujimori, who was full of strength, was completely dumbfounded.
The next moment, she started running wildly in the passage.
…
Outside Nakano Station, a long seal was put up.
A large number of police officers from the local police department rushed to the scene to maintain order.
All nearby citizens have cleared the area.
There are still many passengers trapped in the station. A transparent light shield covers the entire station. The passengers inside are completely unable to get out of the shield. Many passengers have frightened faces and run in circles around the edge of the shield - this shield is said to be the Dongdu Police.
Weird Objects from the Inspectorate's Investigation Section.
"Why did the anti-terrorism drill happen so suddenly?"
Outside the blockade, a newly recruited police officer handed a cigarette to a senior, "Shouldn't we make a plan and inform everyone in advance so that we can be fully prepared?"
"Do you really think it's an anti-terrorism exercise?"
"Well……"
"Weird," the senior pointed the cigarette at the lighter lit by the police officer and took a puff, "Have you heard of it?"
"weird?"
"It's no wonder you don't know," the senior exhaled, "those guys have blocked the information very tightly."
"Those guys?"
"Metropolitan Police Department Special Investigation Division,"
The senior looked at the subway station with a bad smile on his face, "Now that you have become a police officer, you should also enjoy the information benefits within the system——
This world is actually not the peaceful one we see before our eyes... There are monsters wandering around everywhere who rely on rules to kill people... Do you know that some monsters will eat most of your head in one bite if you look at them?
One mouthful, and finally only a pair of feet were left. Hey, there was a monster like that in the apartment next to my house."
The rookie police officer took a breath of air, "The residents in that building..."
"Nearly all died,"
There was a slightly frightened look on the senior's face, "If it weren't for an investigator who came all the way from Beihai, there wouldn't be a single survivor.
This kind of thing is absolutely normal in this world, not only in our country... all kinds of weirdness are everywhere in the world... Have you ever heard of the legend of Spider Woman?
Legend has it that the weird ones are the scariest... It is said that there are also rain girls, snow girls, bone girls, Tamamo-mae, Genkoji Temple... Many people have died in many places in Toto. Hmm, the explanation given to the public by the Special Investigation Section is that it was a terrorist attack.
Major fires, bizarre explosions, and even poisonous gas released maliciously... most people are convinced..."
The seniors spoke in a mysterious and foggy way.
The rookie police officer's eyes widened when he heard this, as if he had opened the door to a new world, and he couldn't help but take out a pen and paper from his pocket.
"Are you stupid?"
The senior took the paper and pen over and blew a puff of smoke in his face, "It's better if we know this kind of thing ourselves... If word gets out... you're in trouble and don't implicate me."
Just as he was talking, a man and a woman walked in from outside the blocked area.
The man was wearing a yellow windbreaker, yellow trousers, a black shirt, a tie, and a deerstalker hat on his head. He had a white paper under his right arm. The strangest thing was that he had no face, or rather, no face.
The facial features are as if a piece of white paper has been pasted on the face.
The woman has a good figure. She wears black high heels, black denim tights, a very sexy white off-shoulder T-shirt, an exaggerated wide-brimmed sun hat on her head, and a pair of large black sunglasses that block most of her face.
People can't see her true face clearly.
The police department in charge of on-site sealing and control came forward and spoke a few words to the two of them.
"These two people are dressed really strangely..." the rookie police officer asked in a low voice: "Why is the Pingchuan Police Department so respectful to them?"
"Answer." The senior looked solemn.
"Answer?"
"The man's nickname is Answer," the senior said, "The woman's name is Ye Ying."
"Ah...are they the weird investigators you mentioned?"
"Yeying is."
"What's the answer?"
"It is said that he is a detective," the senior said, "but no one knows his origins. Anyway, he can be seen in many weird incidents in Dongdu."
"His face..."
"Don't ask me, I don't know either. That was it when I first met him."
The senior lowered his voice, "It is said that this person is entangled with a certain grotesque, so stay away as much as possible... Anyone who has anything to do with grotesques should stay away, that's right."
After Answer and Yeying arrived at the scene, they quickly learned about the situation and quickly made arrangements to deal with the weirdness——
First, all subway trains passing through the station are suspended to prevent weird passing trains from being diverted out of the station.
Second, through broadcasts, passengers trapped in the station are reminded to keep a certain distance from other people and avoid gatherings as much as possible.
Third, Answer and Yeying will sneak into the station and retrieve the video from the monitoring room for further analysis and judgment.
"No one?"
Ye Ying clicked on her high heels and was the first to enter the station control room. Then she found two piles of messy clothes on the ground, with wrinkled human skin wrapped inside the clothes.
"Obviously,"
The answer that followed later took out a pocket watch from his pocket and looked at the time, then looked at the human skin on the ground, "They have been sticking to their posts."
"Someone at the Metropolitan Police Department said that you went to Lidu City yesterday,"
Yeying walked to the video control console and skillfully called up the previous surveillance video.
"Haha, some people also said that you got into a taxi and formed a terrifying and weird alliance with a grotesque taxi driver and the famous cannibal Nobuhiko Kumada. Excuse me, are you with America?
Did the Superman team go there?"
"I will go to Lidu,"
Answer walked to the large video surveillance screen, put his hands on his waist and looked at it. Perhaps only he knew what his expression was at this moment, but his tone was very indifferent.
"After the weird case at Nakano Station is over, I will go to Lito to find out who is impersonating me."
"Okay, take me with you."
On the big screen, the images recorded by more than 30 cameras were played at 32 times the speed at the same time. The answer was standing in front of the screen, with his neck half raised, recording every moment of the scene in his mind.
"sometimes,"
Yeying looked at his side face, "I really don't know what kind of equipment is installed in your head, is it a sixteen-core one?"
"Currently, the rule for grotesque killings is one-on-one, or in other words, one-to-one,"
The answer quickly watched all the surveillance videos, "The first victim appeared at the subway entrance, and the second victim witnessed the entire process of the former's death... After that, the victim continued to repeat this cycle..."
"Virus species?"
"More like a combination of a phagocytic species and a host species."
"Heh," Ye Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, "That's okay."
"On the contrary, the situation is very bad."
The answer touched his chin, "Judging from the records on the video, the speed of weird growth is very fast - every time it devours a person, the running speed of the next host will become faster. The running speed will become faster and faster, and the killing speed will also increase.
It’s getting faster and faster, and the growth rate is getting faster and faster.”
"That is to say,"
Yeying took a breath of cold air, "If it is allowed to grow, will Nakano Station become a dead station?"
"No,"
The answer was to press the switch button to convert the video into a real-time surveillance screen, "Perhaps, the real answer is -
Dongdu will become a dead city..."
