"How?" he was curious.

The old man looked at him twice and said, "Because I am very familiar with this road, so familiar that I know how to walk with my eyes closed, just because I ......" The old man walked out of the garbage heap and stared at the garbage truck parked next to the alley, "I am the cleaner in charge of this area." ”

"I've been cleaning for over 40 years. The old man's eyes looked at the mountain of garbage, and he couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic in his heart. Although this is not a decent job, it is a job he loves, and he has worked hard for it for more than 40 years, whether he likes it or not, he generally spends his life on this road, every night, Mid-Autumn Festival, Spring Festival is no exception.

Never left the job once.

Chen couldn't help but be in awe of the old man in front of him, because he understood how difficult it was to persist for more than forty years. For decades, he asked himself, he couldn't do it.

This is the person who deserves to be saved. Dust nodded secretly, the old man in front of him also deserved his respect.

"Come with me, old man. Dust said, "I can take you out of this place alive." ”

"Can you take me out of this place?" the old man was stunned for a moment, a hint of joy on his face. But then, his smile fell, and the wrinkles on his brow became visible again. He waved his hand at the dust, "Thank you, young man, but I have to find my granddaughter." The old man's eyes were full of melancholy, "She's still so young, I don't know ......" Two crystal tears flashed in her eyes, "Will she survive......"

"Don't worry, old man. Dust patted his chest, "I'll go with you to find her, she must still be alive!"

"Thank you, thank you, young man......" The old man's voice became a little trembling, even though he knew that this was tantamount to a fool's dream, in the countless worlds that had become man-eating ghosts, how low was the survival rate of an ordinary little girl? That was his only hope.

"And where was the last place where you and your granddaughter were separated?" asked Chen.

The old man replied, "I don't remember either......," he pointed with a finger, "but my senses seem to have come from this path...... I drove the car, and fortunately I knew the roads here, otherwise I would ......" A look of fear appeared on the old man's face, even though he was old and experienced, but these things were new, so that he could not arouse curiosity, and incomparable fear occupied his whole mind.

"Let's go. Dust grabbed the old man's sleeve and jumped out violently. He didn't believe that this young man looked thin and weak, but how could the power that burst out be so terrifying? Today was really an unforgettable night.

Dust also deliberately slowed down a little, after all, he was carrying an old man now, and in order to take care of him, Dust had to slow down. Although his body smelled of garbage, Dust didn't care at all.

The wind whistled in his ears, and the old man had never felt so excited. He hadn't been on a plane before, but now he felt like it was even happier than flying!

"Young man, what the hell are you from?". Inadvertently, he didn't know how the world could have become so strange. Ghosts, and even people who fly to the sky have appeared, is there anything else in this world that will not appear?

"Me?" a hint of pride appeared on Chen's face, and he understood why Yan had the same pride, and when an ordinary person asked him who he was, he could proudly tell them who he was, because he was an incomparable being.

"You can call me dust. Dust said to him as he walked through the dim city.

"Dust?" the old man nodded, "can you tell me what's going on?" ”

Dust took a deep breath, "Hanging over the city right now is something called Nightfall. It can plunge a city into complete darkness and plunge you into complete panic, which is probably one of its purposes...... The sole purpose of the night falls is to turn all of us into mindless ghosts, and then, perhaps, to enslave our world. I am a member of the National Paranormal Organization, and I exist for the purpose of resisting the darkness. ”

"Could it be that Apocalypse City has hit such a bad fate?" the old man showed a sad look, this is the place where he grew up, he has witnessed the rise of high-rise buildings, from a small fishing village the size of a palm to an international metropolis like this, the population has also exploded, and he has witnessed the birth of a new era. However, tonight, the legend has collapsed before it can fully manifest itself in the whole world.

"Nope. Dust shook his head, "There have been dozens of cities in the entire world that have been devastated by this, but Apocalypse City is the largest of them. ”

"Dozens? Why have I never heard of anything like this happening?"

"After the night swallows up the city, the existence of the city, the names of the people, all the traces that can prove that they once existed will be swallowed up and cease to exist, except for us, the living people ......" Chen remembered the address book in his mobile phone again, and the names and numbers of his parents were impressive. Where are you now?

The old man was silent, feeling that this topic was too heavy, although this was the future that he had to face, he was still worried...... The old man probably looked around, and his vision slowly widened. He hesitated, then said, "This should be it." ”

Dust then stopped his leaping steps and stopped steadily on the balcony of a building.

"This?"

The old man nodded, "That's it." It was at this point that my granddaughter was swept away by the crowd...... I'm really old, I should have held her hand tightly, but ......" The old man was remorseful, wiping his eyes that had become red again, "I'm sorry, I'm really old......"

Dust comforted: "It's okay, I can sense the location of the living person." I'll hurry up and find your granddaughter and ...... I'll take you to a safe location.

Dust then closed his eyes and savored the breath of humanity that had survived the darkness. A few scattered spots, at the moment, are hiding in a few places that are not easy to be found by ghosts, and they are cowering and hiding, praying that those ghosts will not find them. However, ghosts have a very keen sense of smell, and if they are not in a special position, the chances of survival are basically zero.

Dust felt that several of the nearby auras were gradually weakening, and then disappeared. He knew that time was imminent, and he could not allow him to carefully investigate them one by one.

"You're waiting here. I'll look for it. "The figure of dust disappeared in vain in the darkness.

"Wait a minute!" shouted the old man, "why do you want to help me?"

"Because you're worth it. ”

The old man sat tremblingly in place, and then sat down on the ground. He couldn't see anything, so he could only pray silently in his heart: "You, you must come back alive and sound."

This is the first person that Dust recognizes in the night, and although he has been looking for a long time, he has found it. But...... It's still too little. He shook his head helplessly, and found the girl first.

He didn't need to know what she looked like, because a little girl from an ordinary human was really unlikely to survive. But this is what he promised the old man, and even if his granddaughter died, he would have to prove this cruel truth.

Dust's figures flickered in the darkness, and one by one he found those who were still breathing, and in the darkness, they looked terrified, and Dust turned out their hiding place, giving them a look of hope, thinking that someone had come to save them. The people were ecstatic and cried out excitedly, eager to go up and hug the mysterious man who had suddenly appeared in front of them. But the mysterious man didn't seem to be interested in them, and his head shook slightly, hiding in the dark, not because he wanted to find someone. Whether it's the little girl in mind.

His figure was hidden in vain in the darkness. This made the ecstatic people stunned, and they had no idea what was going on. Immediately afterward, countless ghostly howls of excitement erupted not far from their hiding place, and people looked at each other. Then, countless figures that had turned into ghosts rushed towards the positions of the people who had been exposed, and in a short time this small hiding place was surrounded by water.

There were several terrifying screams behind the dust...... But that's not what he cares about, he doesn't care how many scum dies, he just needs to save those who need to be saved. For some reason, another ability gradually opened up in his heart, that is, the ability to distinguish whether a person can preserve humanity in the night, and the ability to distinguish between good and evil, which can be regarded as helping him improve the efficiency of finding people. As for those who are screaming...... Sorry, he didn't have time, although these people died because of him.

He became cold, cold-blooded again, his eyes blood-red again, and as the night wore on, he sank deeper and deeper, but he didn't realize what he was doing.

There are constantly human hideouts being turned out, although they may not live until dawn, but without exception, because of the dust exposed their own living breath, and because of the dust cold eyes, or ignored, they have become another feast in the dark.

Dust rummaged through everyone nearby, and the breath of living people in this area gradually decreased, except for a few points in twos and threes, there seemed to be no other people.

She should have died...... Although he didn't want to admit it, it was the truth.

He collected his emotions slightly, and his eyes returned to normal. He was about to turn around and turn back to look for the old man, when he suddenly noticed that a lot of ghosts were gathering near one of the sensing points. It seems that there is a great interest in that person.

"It's strange, how can just an ordinary person attract so many ghosts?" said Chen.

The figure flashed by.
