In a certain house in City S, there was a heart-rending coughing sound. The sound was hoarse and painful, which made people feel heart-wrenching to hear it.
The house is not big, just one bedroom and one living room. The style of the house is very old, and the layout is very simple.
At this time, the sun rises outside, and even though the hot sunshine illuminates the entire earth, the light in this house is very dim. The curtains in the living room are very thick, and the color is not the common white or other colors, but
It is a very depressing black. The black curtains are tightly drawn, blocking all the light outside the room. Occasionally, a breeze blows through, blowing a corner of the curtains, and a ray of light emerges from the room unwilling to be lonely.
Through the gap, light came in, making the dark room suddenly bright.
With the appearance of that ray of light, everything in the living room appeared in front of you. There was no furniture in the living room, neither the common sofa nor any household appliances. The walls of the living room were also empty. There was only a handful of furniture in the whole room.
On the recliner, an old man was lying on the chair. The old man had gray hair and dull eyes. He covered his mouth with a smooth hand and coughed violently.
Next to the chair, there is something that is either a cabinet or a coffee table. There is a medicine bottle without any label on the cabinet. Next to the medicine bottle, there is a mobile phone and a knife.
The knife is very small and looks very compact, but it is extremely sharp. At this time, under the light, it shines with a cold light, making people dare not look at it more.
The heartbreaking cough of the old man kept ringing in this small house, making people worried that he would die next moment.
Accompanied by a cough that became stronger than the previous one, the old man stretched out his other trembling hand, picked up the medicine bottle from the cabinet, opened the medicine bottle tremblingly, shook the medicine bottle, and two capsules fell from the medicine bottle.
It rolled out, and the old man didn't even look at it. He just threw it into his mouth. His Adam's apple squirmed and the capsule entered the esophagus. The old man lay straight on the chair. His coughing continued, but it was getting quieter.
The old man's face, which was originally as pale as a dead person, gradually became flushed after a few minutes, and the old man's breathing, which was originally vague, also became heavier, and the old man's body began to convulse.
It was getting bigger and bigger, like an epileptic seizure. It looked very scary. The chair under the person made a squeaking sound, which made people's hair stand on end.
"call......"
I don't know how long it took, but a sound of relief came from the old man's mouth. His body stopped spasming, and the heartbreaking cough just now disappeared. It seemed that everything that just happened was just an illusion.
, never appeared in general.
After a while, the old man stood up from the chair, and his originally cloudy eyes now revealed gleams of light. At this moment, the old man did not look like an old man, but rather like a young man in his twenties. If not
With his gray hair and criss-crossing wrinkles on his face, he really looked like a young man.
The old man capped the medicine bottle again and brought it to his eyes. After looking at it for a while, a wry smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He didn't know what he was laughing at or what he was thinking. After looking at it for a while, the old man placed the medicine bottle on the cabinet.
The old man stood up, left his chair, came to the window, stretched out his hands like a young man's, and opened the thick black curtains.
As the curtains opened, the dazzling sunlight outside instantly enveloped the room. The old man subconsciously squinted his eyes and put his hand in front of his forehead, trying to block the sunlight.
After a while, the old man's eyes adapted to the environment in front of him. He slowly put down his hands, put them behind his hands, raised his head slightly, looked at the sun in the sky, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and murmured to himself: "Boy, hold on tight.
Time, I don’t have much time.”
————
On the road leading from S City to Chenjiahe Village, several cars sped away. Many people walking on the road, after hearing the sound of the cars, would subconsciously turn their heads and look at these cars.
At the last glance, my body subconsciously walked towards the roadside.
After the cars passed by, they continued walking without paying attention to these cars.
Although Xu Lang didn't want to sleep, he couldn't resist the attack of sleepiness in the end, and finally fell asleep in a daze.
I don't know whether it was because he was too tired these past few days, or because his body was injured, or because the roads here were really bad, but Xu Lang's sleep was very uneasy.
After Xu Lang closed his eyes, not long after, he seemed to have returned to the scene where Yang Rongwei's body was found. The corners of his mouth were split like a clown, and the other person's breast had been removed, leaving a wound the size of a bowl, and he died.
The body that had been cut into two pieces at the navel, and the extremely clean internal organs inside the body, all appeared clearly in front of Xu Lang's eyes. As Xu Lang's sight shifted, these things kept magnifying, making Xu Lang
Lang's stomach was churning.
Xu Lang looked at Yang Rongwei's body and thought about why Sun Wenyao brutally killed Yang Rongwei, when a voice rang in Xu Lang's ears.
"Death is only the end of the body, but it is a sublimation of the soul."
Hearing this, Xu Lang turned his head suddenly and saw a man wearing a forensic uniform, wearing gloves as white as snow, holding an extremely sharp scalpel in his right hand, and holding a piece in his left hand.
The piece of flesh dripping with blood looked like it should be a human breast.
This man doesn't
It was someone else, none other than Sun Wenyao. He still looked the same as when Xu Lang saw him for the first time a few years ago. His hair was still black and had not changed at all.
"Why kill him?"
Xu Lang looked at Sun Wenyao and asked subconsciously.
Sun Wenyao didn't seem to hear Xu Lang's voice. He threw the piece of meat in his hand on the ground as if throwing away garbage, walked to Yang Rongwei and squatted down, stretched out a hand to touch the other person's cheek, and murmured
He murmured to himself: "Look, what a perfect work of art."
Xu Lang looked at Sun Wenyao's back, but felt palpitations in his heart. He really wanted to punch this guy who seemed to have no defense at all. He thought so and did so. However, when he raised his fist
When he hit Sun Wenyao on the back of the head, the other person suddenly disappeared, and Xu Lang punched Yang Rongwei's body.
Yang Rongwei's body was shaken slightly by Xu Lang's punch. Yang Rongwei, who had his eyes closed suddenly opened his eyes with a pair of vicious eyes, staring at Xu Lang, as if to say, why are you hitting him?
I.
Looking at each other, Xu Lang found that Yang Rongwei's eyes, in addition to being deeply vicious, were also ridiculing, as if he was mocking Xu Lang's incompetence. The wound that was cut to the root of his ear,
He also raised his head slightly, and began to open his mouth, opening wider and wider, and finally, all Xu Lang saw was a huge mouth, biting towards his face.
Just when Xu Lang subconsciously stretched out his hand to punch, everything in front of him disappeared.
Xu Lang appeared in a room. The room was extremely dark. A huge body was sitting on the sofa next to the window. This was a person. His body was shaking slightly, and there was a chewing sound in his mouth. He seemed to
While he was eating, there was a mirror placed opposite him. From the mirror, Xu Lang saw an extremely fat face, that of a man.
The man's eyes were dull, and his mouth moved. A stream of scarlet blood slowly flowed out as the man's mouth moved, extending from the corner of his mouth to his chin, and finally dripped on his belly like a ball.
Except for the man sitting on the sofa, there seemed to be no third person in the room. In the dark and silent room, there was only the sound of the man chewing food, which gave people a creepy feeling for no reason.
"Stab..."
Just when Xu Lang was about to approach the man, a strange sound suddenly sounded. It was the sound of a knife cutting flesh. Xu Lang looked for the sound, and then he noticed that there was a person squatting in front of the man. When Xu Lang looked at
When he did, he also looked at Xu Lang.
A white forensic uniform, white gloves, a scalpel with a cold light, a familiar face, a familiar smile, and a familiar expression. If it weren't for the fact that the other party was holding a piece of meat that was still dripping with blood, Xu Langzhen would have
I thought he was still the forensic doctor he once was.
"You're here."
Sun Wenyao stood up slowly, looked at Xu Lang, and said with a smile.
"I'm here." Xu Lang replied almost subconsciously.
"Have you thought of the answer?" Sun Wenyao asked again.
Xu Lang shook his head.
"That's it."
Sun Wenyao was a little disappointed, looked down at the thing in his hand, stretched out his hand, and put it in the man's mouth. The man almost subconsciously opened his mouth, bit the piece of meat, and then started chewing, just like what Xu Langgang saw
He was like that, repetitive and mechanical.
After Sun Wenyao finished all this, he raised his head and smiled at Xu Lang.
The next second, Sun Wenyao disappeared, and the room Xu Lang was in also disappeared.
In the dark night, the silent road, dim street lights, and bright traffic lights, Xu Lang returned to the intersection where the car accident occurred last night.
"Bang."
Accompanied by a violent crash, Xu Lang looked around and saw that the truck was pushing his police car towards the green belt. On the side of the truck, a van with a dented front was hitting the police car.
On top of the truck.
The truck slowly backed up and drove into the distance, and the van followed closely behind.
The moment he left, Xu Lang saw the woman in the driver's seat.
As if aware of Xu Lang's gaze, the woman turned her head and looked at Xu Lang.
This time, Xu Lang saw her face clearly, but after seeing her face clearly, Xu Lang was stunned on the spot.
Shu Yue, that was Shu Yue's face, a face that Xu Lang was familiar with. At this time, she was looking at Xu Lang tenderly, her mouth opened and closed gently, as if she was saying something.
"Take good care of yourself."
However, the next moment, that face changed. It was no longer that of Shu Yue, but that of Ning Yanran. Her eyes also changed, becoming sad and sad.
Next, the woman's face changed many times, from the calm Ye Xuefei to the tranquil Ye Du. Finally, it turned into the face of a woman Xu Lang had never seen before. She showed a ferocious and bloodthirsty smile, sarcastic
Looking at Xu Lang, he turned his head and looked forward. The originally clear face was once again hidden in the darkness.
As the van started, the woman's face completely disappeared from Xu Lang's eyes.
"ah......"
Xu Lang opened his eyes suddenly and sat upright from his seat. He subconsciously leaned forward, and the next second, he was pulled back by the seat belt on his chest.
"Squeak..."
Lai Pi, who was concentrating on driving, was startled by Xu Lang's sudden shout. He couldn't hold the steering wheel. The car started to move in an S-shape on the road. Finally, Lai Pi finally managed to steady himself.
He stopped the car on the side of the road, turned his head, looked at Xu Lang, who was sweating profusely, as if it were raining, and his face was pale, and asked softly: "Brother Lang, you...what's wrong with you?"
Xu Lang's eyes were dull and he stared straight ahead. It seemed that there was something extremely terrifying in front of Xu Lang's eyes.
Lai Pi followed Xu Lang's line of sight and found that except for the road ahead, there were only trees swaying in the wind on both sides. Other than that, there was nothing else.
Monk Lai Pi was confused. He turned his head again, looked at Xu Lang, was silent for a while, and tentatively shouted: "Brother Lang..."
"Ah? Oh, what's wrong?"
Xu Lang's dull eyes gradually focused, and finally returned to normal. He looked around vigilantly and blankly. After seeing everything around him clearly, he took a long breath. When he heard Lai Pi's voice, Xu Lang subconsciously replied
.
The air conditioner was on in the car, which brought a little bit of coolness to people in the hot summer. Xu Lang was sweating profusely. The sweat flowed slowly along his cheeks, and finally gathered into a drop of crystal clear water on his chin.
Beads of sweat, Xu Lang's clothes were already wet with sweat. At this time, when the air conditioner blew, Xu Lang couldn't help but shiver. Because of the action just now, Xu Lang's chest felt a stinging pain. Until this moment,
After a moment, Xu Lang gradually woke up.
This was the first time Lai Pi saw Xu Lang like this. He asked with a worried look: "Brother Lang, what's wrong with you? Are you having a nightmare?"
"Having a nightmare?"
Xu Lang frowned, turned his head and looked at Lai Pi and asked, "Did I fall asleep just now?"
Lai Pi nodded and said, "Yes, after leaving the city, you kept looking out the window, and fell asleep not long after."
"Then what didn't I say after I fell asleep?" Xu Lang asked quickly as he thought of the scene that seemed like a real experience just now.
"What did you say?"
Lai Pi shook his head and said, "You didn't say anything, but..."
"But what?"
Seeing Lai Pi's hesitant expression, Xu Lang asked.
"Actually, it's nothing. It's just that you didn't sleep well. You were always twisting and turning when you were sitting in the passenger seat. Your expression was very painful, and your face kept sweating. I called you several times before, but you didn't
If you don't wake up, are you having a nightmare?" Lai Pi said with a frown.
"That's it."
Xu Lang didn't ask any more questions, nor did he look at Lai Pi anymore. Instead, he opened the door, got out of the car, stood by the road, and looked at the green woods in front of him.
The air conditioner was running in the car, giving people a very cool and comfortable feeling. But when they got out of the car, a wave of hot air hit the door directly, making people feel uncomfortable all over and their throats felt tight.
The venomous sunlight shone on Xu Lang's body, and Xu Lang subconsciously squinted his eyes. The clothes that were still wet were dried by the hot sunlight in a short while, and they stuck to his body tightly, making people feel uncomfortable.
Feeling very uncomfortable.
Lai Pi's car drove at the front. After his car stopped, several cars behind also stopped. After Xu Lang got out of the car, the intercom in the car rang.
"Officer Lai, what happened up front? Did something happen?"
Lai Pi took the walkie-talkie and looked at Xu Lang, who was standing motionless in the sun. He shook his head and said, "Nothing happened. You go first. We will be here later."
"Oh, then we'll wait for you in front."
After saying that, the intercom was turned off, and the cars parked behind restarted, passed by Lai Pi's car, and continued forward. When passing Lai Pi's car, everyone subconsciously looked towards
Xu Lang, who was standing next to the car, had a puzzled expression in his eyes. They didn't know what happened just now.
In fact, not only did they not know what happened just now, but Lai Pi who was with Xu Lang also didn't know what happened.
Xu Lang must have had a nightmare, that was certain, but only Xu Lang himself knew what the nightmare was about.
Although I don’t know the content of the nightmare, judging from Xu Lang’s reaction just now, Xu Lang’s nightmare must be extraordinary.
What kind of dream could make Xu Lang lose his temper like this? What has he experienced? How many secrets are hidden in this man's heart?
Lai Pi looked at Xu Lang's back and frowned subconsciously.
Xu Lang stood outside for a while, allowing his brain to completely wake up, then got in the car again and fastened his seat belt.
Lai Pi looked at Xu Lang and opened his mouth, wanting to ask what Xu Lang had dreamed about. However, when he saw Xu Lang pursed his lips tightly and looked out the window, Lai Pi didn't ask anything.
He started the car and chased the criminal investigation team.
Silence returned to the car again. Except for the roar of the engine and the whirring of the air conditioner, the car was eerily quiet. While driving, Lai Pi looked at Xu Lang from the corner of his eye, as if he wanted to read Xu Lang's face.
However, after Lai Pi looked at it for a long time, he was disappointed because he didn't see anything on Xu Lang's face. After Xu Lang got in the car, he always kept looking out the window.
