I signed, retrieved my computer bag, and walked out of the police compound to the side of the road outside.

The blue sky is like washing, and the white clouds are long. It seemed to rain last night, the trees were washed very freshly, and the air was so fresh that it smelled sweet.

Stretching out your arms and taking a deep breath is really indescribably refreshing.

However, Zhu'er timidly tugged at the corner of my coat and cowered, as if she was very scared.

I glanced back at her, and saw her timidly looking at the various cars whizzing by, trembling slightly.

At this time, Gundam was standing next to a Corolla and beckoned me to get in.

Zhu'er shook her head in fear, but she didn't dare to speak.

Looking at her pitiful appearance, I can't help but feel a little sorry for her, but when I think about it, she is a thousand-year-old ghost, if she doesn't dare to follow me because of fear, wouldn't it be a good thing?

Ignoring her for now, he strode towards Gundam's car.

That guy from Zhu'er grabbed the corner of my clothes, and he had the courage to follow.

I opened the co-pilot's door and was about to walk in, when I suddenly heard Zhu'er say, "Master, look at that person." ”

I followed her gaze and saw a balding man in his thirties looking out among the trees in the middle of the road, as if he wanted to cross the road to this side.

It's rush hour, and there's a constant flow of vehicles.

The man waited for a while, but did not have a chance to come, as if he was in a hurry.

His forehead was as black as a drop of ink, almost dripping down.

A number appears above his head: "20".

Then it becomes "19".

It becomes "18" again.

……

Is it a countdown?

"He's going to die." Pearls said.

When Gundam saw me looking over there, he also turned his head to look, but he only frowned and didn't speak.

"Don't you care about this situation?" I say.

Gouda pulled the car door and said lightly, "I'm not a traffic cop. ”

At this time, the man couldn't wait, raised his hand, and trotted towards this side.

10……

9……

8……

7……

The numbers above the man's head were changing.

I don't know why, but I was nervous.

"What else to see? Get in. Gundam patted the roof of the car and said.

A white car honked its horn sharply, almost grazing the man's body and speeding by.

The man hurriedly backed away, and a black Volkswagen couldn't brake and hit it just in time.

"Quack—" There was a long, screeching sound of brakes.

The man flew straight two or three meters away, and after landing on the ground, he rolled several meters away, and the blood stained the ground red.

I could clearly see that the moment the car hit the man, the number above his head turned to zero.

Now even 0 is gone.

I froze.

Gundam who stepped into the car with one foot was also stunned.

The scene was a mess.

Several cars rear-ended each other.

The vehicles behind stopped one after another.

People got out of their cars to check on the situation.

Pedestrians on the side of the road screamed.

Several police officers shouted and sprinted towards the man.

……

Gundam didn't pass, he was still in shock.

Then he looked back at me, the gray mass on his forehead flickering on and off.

I looked a little furious at him, as if he had done something wrong.

Damn, I didn't do anything bad, huh?

"Do you want to go over and see better?" Gundam still didn't take his eyes off my face.

"What's there to see?" I said this, but I was surprised to find that two people chained the balding man through the body of the onlookers and walked in a northwest direction.

The bald man yelled and struggled, but there were no scars or blood on his body.

And in the circle surrounded by many people, the bald man was obviously still lying in a pool of blood, and there was a policeman rescuing him!

Is the locked man his soul?

And the two men with chains were both wearing sunglasses, one in a black suit and the other in a white suit.

Don't...... Are they the legendary black and white impermanence?

Why aren't they wearing high hats?

The sun was bright, but I felt chills all over my body and my hands shivered involuntarily.

Gundam also noticed my anomaly, and looked back for a long time, but found nothing.

The two people, one black and one white, walked and walked like an unruly dog, and then disappeared into the air.

"He's been taken to the underworld," Pearl's side said, "and even the gods can't save him." ”

"Then ......" I wanted to ask if the two people were black and white, but suddenly I realized that Gundam was still looking at me, and I hurriedly stopped my mouth, almost biting my own tongue.

Gundam looked at me even more strangely.

However, he didn't ask anything, just said, "Get in the car?" ”

"Don't you care if someone dies?" I asked strangely.

Gouda said: "There are other colleagues who will handle it, and I have my own business. ”

After saying that, he got into the car first.

I had to get in the passenger seat.

Pearls followed me in.

I motioned for her to sit in the back.

Zhu'er didn't dare to sit alone, her body floated to the roof of the car, and she clutched the co-pilot's headrest tightly and didn't dare to relax.

Gundam started the car without saying a word.

None of us spoke, and there was a very eerie atmosphere in the car.

I took out a pack of unopened Zunyi cigarettes from my computer bag and lit them.

The half bottle of boy's urine that I "tricked" on the road yesterday was still in the bag, but fortunately Gundam didn't see it, so I hurriedly pulled the bag up.

This boy's urine shouldn't be useless, right? You have to find a chance to throw it away, or you won't know how to explain it to people when you see it.

The smell of cigarettes wafted from the car.

Gundam frowned, but didn't say anything, but opened the skylight—

With a "whew", the beads floating on the roof of the car were caught off guard, and they were suddenly sucked out of the sunroof.

I instinctively stretched out my hand, but I didn't even reach the corner of her clothes.

I didn't have time to think about it, I wanted to poke my head out of the skylight to see how the pearl was doing.

Gundam grabbed me and yelled, "You're insane, you want to die, don't you?!" ”

Only then did I wake up, and my heart was pounding.

Is Jewel dead?

At this time, only to hear the sound of "whew", Zhu'er came in through the skylight again, patted her chest and shouted: "Scared me to death, scared me to death!" I'd better go back to sleep and be safe! ”

As she spoke, she plunged into my waist and disappeared in an instant, as if Sun Wukong had gotten into a gourd.

The key around my waist flickered.

I took off the keychain and looked at it for a long time, but I still didn't see anything unusual, and the little monkey was still smiling.

Pearls are hiding in here? I don't see it at all. If you show this little monkey to others, no one will believe that there is a thousand-year-old female ghost hiding in it, right?

Something suddenly occurred to me.

Just before the bald man died, I saw a countdown above his head. So, does the string of numbers I see on the head of a living person indicate the lifespan of that person?

I couldn't help but turn my head to look at Gundam.

He also has a series of numbers on his head that are constantly changing, but I don't quite know how long this number represents.

What about the color on the forehead?

Before the bald man died, the forehead was black, and the color became darker the further he went. And when it really died, the blackness gradually dissipated to the point of nothingness.

Can you think that the color represents the luck of this person?

I peeked in the rearview mirror for a long time, but in the mirror I couldn't see the number above my head, nor the color on my forehead.

But everyone who comes and goes on the road has it.

Looks like I shouldn't be able to see myself.

I remember seeing Emperor Xudu wake up and have this ability, so what did Emperor Xudu do to me?

What is the ability that guy said to connect the two worlds of yin and yang?

I stared blankly at myself in the rearview mirror, my mind blank.

I really had a deep fear.

This fear is not the same as the fear of digging old graves in a barren mountain.

Because I feel as if there is an invisible force that is pulling me away from the original track of life.

If I used to be confident that I could achieve my ideals and live the life I wanted through my own efforts, now there is only darkness left in front of me.

I don't know what I'm going to face in the rest of my life, and I don't know where I'm headed.

There seems to be a bottomless abyss on the left and right, and if I take any step, I may be crushed.

What is the power behind this?
