Chapter 21: There are demons and cannibals
Xue Bing walked on the road, not wearing a police uniform, dressed in casual clothes, looking very refreshing, if it was not at night, it would definitely attract the attention of many people. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
It's been almost two weeks since she was transferred here, but there is still no clue about the disappearance. During this time, the perpetrator seemed to be deeply lurking, and no one was missing, but it is also possible that the police did not notice it.
Xue Bing has developed a habit in the past two weeks, and every morning and evening she will slowly walk around the area she is in charge of, on the one hand, to see if she can find a clue or something, and on the other hand, because someone's pharmacy is open in this vicinity.
Xue Bing unconsciously walked to the opposite side of the pharmacy, but she didn't approach, just glanced at it from a distance.
Haven't closed the door today? Looking at the lights in the shop, she silently said a sentence in her heart, stood quietly for a few minutes, and then turned to leave.
She had been doing this for several days, almost becoming a habit.
At this time, there was no one on the street, Xue Bing was walking alone on the road, looking at the shadow stretched by the street lamp in front of him, he felt a bit of a gloomy taste in his heart, and a bad smile unconsciously appeared in his mind.
Phew, why did you think of that guy again. Xue Bing shook his head a little embarrassedly, trying to shake the figure out of his mind, but his eyes couldn't help but look in the direction of the small shop behind him.
"I've grabbed the bag."
Just as Xue Bing turned her head, she heard a scream, and then a figure jumped in front of her, and there was a pungent stench.
Xue Bing looked back and forth, and found that it turned out to be a woman's bag that had been robbed, and the person who grabbed the bag had long hair and was dirty, as if he was a homeless man.
Xue Bing chased after him as soon as possible.
"The person in front of you stops, I'm a policeman." Xue Bing shouted loudly as he chased after him.
The homeless man who grabbed the bag glanced back, revealing a half-panicked face, and then ran faster.
Xue Bing was angry in his heart, so he simply stopped shouting and quickened his pace.
Xue Bing's grades in the police academy are very good, all of them are excellent, and her physical strength is naturally not bad, although she is a girl, but the homeless man can't outrun her at all.
Seeing that the homeless man within a hundred meters was about to be caught up by herself, her face showed a slight joy, but at this moment, the homeless man turned around and turned into a small alley.
Xue Bing naturally chased after her, but as soon as she entered the alley, she was dumbfounded, and the homeless man was gone.
The East District is the old district of Nanxing, and there are many old buildings left, so there are many alleys extending in all directions, and people who are not familiar with it will get lost.
Xue Bing fell into such an embarrassment. She watched the homeless man run in, but she didn't know which alley he was running to next.
The more it dragged on, the more difficult it was to catch up with people, Xue Bing thought about it, and casually chose a direction and walked in.
The alley generally leads to the back door of the B&B or hotel, and there are a lot of messy debris and garbage in the aisle, making it difficult to move forward.
Xue Bing loves cleanliness, only cares about avoiding garbage and sewage, and before he knows it, he is completely lost in this "labyrinth".
Forget it, let's find our way back first. She was a little discouraged, and could only secretly say that the homeless man was lucky.
Xue Bing walked back with his senses, looking around as he went, expecting to find someone to ask. Suddenly, she heard a shrill scream, like a man's voice.
Xue Bing was excited, and quickly reacted and followed the direction from which the voice came.
The screams rang out twice, making them clear in the quiet alley, and then quickly fell silent, but this could already provide Xue Bing with an accurate direction.
Xue Bing turned two corners, and inadvertently saw a lady lying quietly at the entrance of the alley with her satchel.
The homeless man was nearby, she reacted, and walked on tiptoe.
At this time, Xue Bing heard a sound coming from behind the alley. The sound was very strange, a bit like the sound of chewing, and a bit like the sound of sharpening a knife, so small and broken that it made people feel a little panicked.
Xue Bing's brows slowly furrowed, her steps became more and more gentle, and finally came to the edge of the satchel, she quietly poked out her head to look out.
Xue Bing's pupils dilated suddenly, and she covered her mouth all of a sudden.
What did she see?
I saw a tall and thin man, with his back to her, his head sinking slightly, shrugging and chewing something. The man's arms were long and thin, like bamboo poles, but the joints were extremely hideous and protruding, like animal claws.
Xue Bing finally saw clearly what the man was biting in his mouth, it was the homeless man just now. The huge body was carried by the man like a rag doll, stinky meat, and blood continued to drip down with the man's movements like a stream.
The man muttered while concentrating on biting: "Damn policeman, damn demon slayer, chase after Lao Tzu like a dog every day." It's not even fun to eat a person, so I can only sneak around and find some homeless people to satisfy my cravings.. Ahh That meat is so smooth and tender."
Xue Bing's mind went blank, and then endless fear came up like a tidal wave, accompanied by convulsions from her stomach, making her feel nauseous and almost vomit.
Cannibalism!!
Xue Bing subconsciously took a step back, but inadvertently stepped on the strap of the satchel that fell to the ground. The soles of her feet slipped and she nearly fell, and to make matters worse, there was a small thud.
The tall and thin man turned his head suddenly, and Xue Bing finally saw his whole picture clearly.
What a face that is. The complexion is iron gray, the mouth is protruding, revealing a mouthful of jagged fangs with broken flesh and blood foam, the nose is almost nonexistent, only two small holes, the eyes are hanging and long, the cheekbones are high and raised, the facial muscles are one by one, and the whole face looks ugly and murderous.
Is this a youkai? Xue Bing stared at the man in a daze, stepping back step by step.
The tall and thin man tilted his head and looked at Xue Bing curiously, and then showed a hideous smile: "It's really tender meat sent to the door." ”
After speaking, he threw the homeless man who had eaten all kinds of food in his hand to the side, his eyes flashed fiercely, and the whole person disappeared in an instant, and the next moment, the already murderous face was close at hand.
"Ahh Xue Bing screamed, and good training allowed her to escape. She dodged the lanky man's attack, then ran backwards as fast as she could.
The tall, lanky man let out a laugh like a night owl and continued to chase after him. He was fast, as swift as a leopard.
But fortunately, this is in the tortuous alley, and the constant turns have made Xue Bing save the day again and again.
She didn't dare to look back at all, she ran as hard as she could, and there was only one thought in her mind: "Run, run." ”
