Outside the building, Hongyu was sitting in the car chatting with Meiyu on his mobile phone, and just when he looked stupid, the lights in front of the building were suddenly extinguished, and the neighborhood fell into darkness in an instant.

"I'll tell you later."

After sending a voice message, he dropped his phone in the car, pulled out his gun and ran towards Professor Zhang's home.

Hongyu rushed to the door of the building, and when he turned the handle, he found that the door was locked, and he was indifferent no matter how he twisted it.

"The front door is locked!" Hongyu shouted.

Shen Cheng, who was in the living room, looked around, walked to the fireplace, and picked up a tongs from the fire that had been burned red. He took the tongs in his hand and shook it, and it felt just right.

"He's at the back door!" Shen Cheng shouted at Hongyu outside the house, "He's already in the building!" ”

Hearing this, Hong Yu cut the safety bolt of the gun and went around the back door of the western-style building. Turning over the grass, Hongyu bowed down and walked to the back door with a gun in both hands.

When he turned the doorknob, he found that the back door was also locked, and he hit it hard a few times, but to no avail.

"The back door is also locked!" Hiroha shouted anxiously.

"The windows are not closed! Check it out! ”

After shouting, Shen Cheng tightened his grip on the tongs and walked towards the wooden door of the living room. He stood on tiptoe and walked lightly.

"No, no, no... Come back... Please come back soon...."Professor Zhang, who was on the sofa, said in a panic.

Shen Cheng slowly pushed open the wooden door and glanced towards the main hall of the room. The shadow was no longer where it was, and now it was gone.

He glanced at Hongyu outside the back door, and he also wanted to open the door for Hongyu, but at the moment he was a little lacking in skills. There was only one door in the living room for entry and exit, and if he left the door at this moment, he was afraid that the murderer would take the opportunity to enter and kill Professor Zhang.

It was very dark in the room, and Shen Cheng was standing in the short corridor on the first floor, with the hall door behind him and the west wing of the western-style building in front of him. Shen Cheng leaned over and glanced at the side room a few times, a few sofas by the window, some potted plants and bookshelves, and there was no one.

Suddenly, there was the creak of the wooden floor from the ceiling of the room.

[He's upstairs...]

Shen Cheng walked up the stairs and leaned against the wall and slowly approached upward.

At this moment, in a room on the second floor, a dark figure stood by the gramophone, picked up a disc and put it on.

The elegant sound of the violin came from the gramophone, the melody was smooth and coquettish, accompanied by the calm piano sound of the beat, elegant and generous, creating a sense of out-of-place pleasure in the dark.

The music ran through the entire house, and Shen Cheng frowned when he heard the tune.

[Mozart minuet?] ]

"Mr. Xu! There is no need for any more deaths! Shen Cheng stared at everything in the darkness and walked up the stairs step by step, "I can help you!" ”

There were two opposing doors around the corner on the second floor, and what he was looking at now was the one he had just heard downstairs.

"I understand how you feel, and I often have a lot of nightmares." Shen Cheng raised the tongs, the fiery red light at the tip illuminating his eyes, "But they trapped you in your nightmare, didn't they?" ”

He walked around the corner on the second floor, looked at the door in front of him and frowned, ready to face threats at any moment.

'Bang! With a bang, the gangster broke out from behind him, and Shen Cheng was knocked to the ground by the huge impact of the door, and the tongs in his hand were also thrown downstairs.

It turned out that the previous squeak was deliberately made by the gangsters, and the room had already been changed, just waiting for him to bite the hook and go upstairs.

The two scuffled together, Shen Cheng was pressed under him, and the gangster dragged Shen Cheng's neckline and smashed his right fist into Shen Cheng's face.

After smashing two punches, Shen Cheng grabbed the gap where the gangster was ventilating and raised his knee to slam his lower body.

"Roar!!"

With a roar, the gangster fell to his knees and covered his crotch with his hands in pain. Seizing this opportunity, Shen Cheng got up from the ground and pounced on the gangsters.

The melodious violin sound of the minuet surrounds the house, making the scene look very witty, even hilarious.

The two of them are entangled together, and now it is Shen Cheng who has the upper hand, and after a while, it is the gangsters who have the upper hand, back and forth, often recovering from each other.

"You let go !!" The gangster shouted at Shen Cheng.

Now that the two were lying on the ground, Shen Cheng used a scissor leg on him, and the two legs wrapped around the gangster's arm, and his hand was grabbed by Shen Cheng, and his head was pressed under his calf.

"Don't let go!"

"If you don't let go, I'll bite you!!"

Seeing that he didn't mean to let go, the gangster bit Shen Cheng's calf. He bit hard, two rows of teeth on the flesh, and the pain could not be alleviated through the suit pants.

"Ah!!!!h

Shen Cheng couldn't bear the pain anymore, he let go of his hand and curled up on the ground holding his calf, rolling back and forth in pain.

The gangster got up and leaned against the wall panting. He took out a dagger from behind his back and threw himself towards Shen Cheng with a fierce look in his eyes.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Shen Cheng raised his legs and fixed them on the gangster's chest, curling his legs, so that he always kept a distance from himself. The gangster swung his knife back and forth in front of him, so angry that he was about to lose his mind.

Suddenly, the man seemed to think of something, and a wicked smile appeared on his face.

"Hahe~~~~ phew!!"

The gangster was in a hurry, and saved a mouthful of old phlegm and spit it on Shen Cheng's face.

"Ah!!!h

He was disgusted by this mouthful of phlegm, his hand was wiped on his face, and Shen Cheng kicked the gangster off his body with a force on his legs. The gangster fell down the stairs and grabbed Shen Cheng's leg with one hand before falling.

The picture was frozen at this moment, with the gangster's smug smile and Shen Cheng's stunned face, the two of them rolled down the stairs together.

It is said that this gangster also has a unique taste, and he has to put on such a pleasant tune in such a tense scene.

The two rolled all the way to the first floor, and after a whirlwind, they each fell to the ground and groaned in pain. The knife fell between the two of them, and they both looked at it.

The gangsters got up first and rushed up to get the knife. He rode on Shen Cheng, and when he stabbed down, Shen Cheng used his arms to resist it, and the gangster grabbed the handle of the knife with both hands and pressed it down.

The tip of the knife glowed with a cold light, and it was getting closer and closer to the eyes.

Thirty centimeters.....

Twenty centimeters...

Ten centimeters.

Suddenly, there was a 'bang' of gunshots! The bullet hit the gangster's shoulder, knocking him straight to the side.

Shen Cheng hurriedly helped his upper body up, panting heavily. He looked at the source of the shot and saw Professor Zhang standing on the sidelines, looking panicked, holding a Winchester double-barreled shotgun in his hand.

The gun was originally placed on the living room shelf, as an ancient treasure, I didn't expect it to be so old that it could still be used.

"Let's go... Let's go, I killed him.. It's me ....." Professor Zhang said with a desperate expression, sobbing one second, and immediately regaining his composure the next.

"Those walls.... They are breathing .... That darkness is so... It's so dark...."

Professor Zhang didn't hold the gun tightly with both hands, and suddenly pointed the muzzle of the gun at Shen Cheng.

"Turn on, hurry up and turn on the lights! I have to go back! ”

Just when the situation was at an impasse, Hongyu also happened to rush into the house.

"Police!!" Hongyu yelled with a gun.

Professor Zhang was startled by him, and the hand holding the gun shook slightly, but fortunately, she was still somewhat sensible and did not shoot. When Hongyu saw this, he pointed his gun at Professor Zhang.

"Nope! No! Wait a minute! Shen Cheng shouted at Hongyu.

He then said to Professor Zhang: "You are trapped in an intense hallucinatory experience, but at the end of the day, it is just a journey. ”

"You can't escape fear." Shen Cheng stretched out his right hand, palm downwards and made a reassuring gesture, "You have to face it head-on." ”

Professor Zhang was still in a panic.

"No.. It's so fast, I have to go back...."

Hong Yu, who was standing on the side, tightened his grip on the handle of the gun and put his index finger on the trigger, for fear that the woman would lose control and shoot Shen Cheng to death.

"The fear you feel right now, that's real." Shen Cheng continued to reassure, "So don't resist anymore, you have to let fear eat you away, and you can calm down after the panic." ”

Hearing this, Professor Zhang thought for a while, and slowly lowered the muzzle of the gun. But suddenly, she raised her gun again at Shen Cheng.

Hongyu was so frightened by her that he gritted his teeth, and sweat was running down his forehead. After a few seconds of stalemate, Professor Zhang began to talk to himself again.

"No.... I can't do that...", she put down her gun and fell into the corner.

In the end, under the guidance of Shen Cheng, her reason prevailed, and she fainted to the ground due to exhaustion.

Shen Cheng leaned down, put his hands on his knees, and stood aside and breathed a long sigh of relief. The same goes for Hiroha, who reattaches the pistol to the back of his waist and pins it to his waist.

He raised his head and glanced at Hongyu and asked with a smile, "Are you real..... Going around the building looking for a window? ”

Hongyu nodded, making Shen Cheng a little helpless.

"Didn't you think about breaking the door lock with a gun..."

Hongyu was dumbfounded by his words, and just now he only cared about listening to his methods, and didn't think about it properly.

[Bastard... It's your trick beforehand, and you're still finding fault afterwards....]

Shen Cheng looked at his stupid appearance and shook his head with a smile.

At midnight, two ambulances arrived at the scene, and the police station also sent support. Shen Cheng took off his coat and sat on the side, draped in a blanket. Hongyu stood on the other side and recounted the incident to his colleagues who rushed to the scene.

Xu Hongyun, who was tied to a stretcher, woke up, and after feeling the severe pain in his body, he was clamoring for candy like a child. Hongyu looked at him with disgust, thinking that this person was really completely crazy.

More than a dozen staff members went back and forth at the scene of the crime, collecting evidence, pulling the cordon, stopping the bleeding, and treating ....

Finally, this case has come to an end, and even in the dark of night, you can feel a sense of peace.

"Let's go, let's get here today, and I'll take you to a supper." Hong Yu said to Shen Cheng.

He looked up at Hongyu and frowned.

"Where are you going? Is it tasty? I won't go if it's not delicious. ”

Hongyu smiled and pulled him directly into the car. After twenty minutes on the road, the two of them came to a barbecue hut and found a place to sit down.

Hongyu is a frequent visitor here, and when he used to be on duty at night, he was hungry and only screamed, and he found this good place after searching around the city.

After a while, the meat skewers are grilled, the meat skewers, the tendons, the grilled stone eggs..... There can be more than fifty on the table. Then, Hongyu also ordered oden for each of them.

Shen Cheng smelled the smell, opened his eyes and said, "It's so fragrant!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the two looked at each other and smiled, each picked up the meat skewer and ate it in a big gulp.

Sometimes, it is not necessarily only the knight who can hunt the darkness, and thanks to the watchman of the night, he can lead the innocent to usher in the dawn.
