introduction

The blue-faced Dou Erdun, a thief of royal horses.

The red-faced Guan Gong fought in Changsha.

The yellow-faced Dian Wei, the white-faced Cao Cao, and the black-faced Zhang Fei are called Chirp......

I hummed a song, peeled off your faces, and hung them on the wall as a family.

Different skin tones, different looks, like a rainbow fairy tale.

Why can't I be you when I put on your face?

Can anyone tell me......

body

According to legend, in ancient times, there was a demon and ghost, who could take on a human form, but lacked a human face. To take the face of others, to put it above oneself, to make up for it with human blood, to become a human being. This person's face is no different from that of ordinary people, and at night it turns into powder. This demon is unwilling, looking for the face of others, so following the past, harming countless people......

Throughout the ages, there have been many things that are interconnected and incredible. In the past, there were demons and ghosts who fought to be human beings, and they did not hesitate to mutilate the lives of others and paint their own skin. As for the current people, they actually become demons and ghosts, painting themselves layer after layer of masks to cover their faces......

Li Yu, will you do what Li Mi did......

No matter how much the demon paints his skin, he will eventually be recognized. No matter how much you paint yourself as an upright and heroic policeman, it will be difficult to hide your bloody and brutal side......

Sometimes, if you wear too many masks, you will forget your true face after wearing them for a long time...... Actually, you're not supposed to be playing an upright cop, right? If you want to be him, you will paint the skin for yourself to play him. But the demon in your heart has turned your good face into powder after sunset......

Jiang Tian, I really appreciate you, it's been so long, I haven't had such an easy time as now......

There will definitely be no more skinning maniacs in the future......

Actually, I really want to be a good person, really......

"Bang" ......

"Ahh Jiang Tian screamed and woke up from his dream.

In the dimly lit room, an old-fashioned air conditioner was still roaring. Zhou Hao, who was on the other bed next to him, "hummed" a few times, turned over, and continued to snore.

"Are you having nightmares again?"

Jiang Tian breathed a long sigh of relief and wiped the sweat on his face with his hand.

"It's strange, during this time, I've had the same dream several times, Li Yu, Xu Jiaxin, do you have anything to say to me?"

Jiang Tian closed his eyes.

"Don't think about it, what do you think, tomorrow, but the college entrance examination ......"

Jiang Tian muttered a few words in a daze and fell asleep.

The next day, Dijiang Hotel. At seven o'clock in the morning, almost everyone's alarm clock went off at the same time.

R middle school is not a college entrance examination center, and all candidates from R middle school are arranged to take the college entrance examination in H 2 middle school. The school suggests that students whose homes are far away from H No. 2 Middle School should book a hotel near the test center so that they can arrive at the test center on time on the day of the college entrance examination to take the test.

"Zhou Hao, I really admire you." Jiang Tian pointed to the air conditioner and smiled bitterly, "How did you manage to sleep like a dead pig in such a noisy environment?" ”

"Hehe, you can't envy it." Zhou Hao chuckled a few times, "You have the skill to solve the case, and I also have the skill to fall asleep." ”

"You're amazing, when will you teach me."

"If you want to practice this skill, you must first ...... After nine hundred and eighty-one difficulties, the suffering that cannot be recovered after thousands of catastrophes, the place where the clouds are in the nine heavens, and the six realms and six realms in the lower ......"

"I'll go! Great god, is there a quick way? ”

"I have sleeping pills here, do you want to ......?"

"Get out!"

On the afternoon of June 8, after taking the last foreign language test, Jiang Tian just walked out of the examination room and was hugged tightly by Zhou Hao, who was coming to him.

"Happy graduation." Zhou Hao said in a rare solemn tone.

Jiang Tian was stunned for a moment, and then hugged Zhou Hao and said, "Happy graduation." ”

"It's a pity that there are three less." Li Jinxuan, who was beside Zhou Hao, whispered.

"Ni Gang, Geng Yan." After a pause, Jiang Tian said word by word, "There is also Pang Zhenjun." ”

Zhou Hao let out a long sigh, "At that time, I, you, Ni Gang, and Pang Zhenjun, the four of them made an appointment, found a place to have a good meal after graduation, drank all the wine that I didn't dare to drink in the past three years, tore up all the books that I didn't dare to tear in the past three years, and told all the bad things I didn't dare to say to the teacher in the past three years, and then got drunk to death in the past, forgot everything after waking up, and embraced the future." ”

"But it's just the two of us, and we've survived until now." Jiang Tian looked at the relieved candidates around him and sighed.

"Jiang Tian, if one day, I am also gone, or far away, or die, will you feel lonely?" Zhou Hao asked.

Jiang Tian looked at Zhou Hao in confusion, not quite understanding Zhou Hao's words.

"Because I'm going to go with Xiao Xuanxuan to find poetry and the distance, haha!"

Zhou Hao suddenly grabbed Li Jinxuan's hand and smiled proudly at Jiang Tian.

"I hate it, go die Zhou Hao!" Li Jinxuan shook off his hand and ran away with a red face.

"Brother, don't chase yet?"

"Just chase, just chase. Someone asked me to give you two things. Zhou Hao hurriedly took out two pieces of paper from his pocket and stuffed them into Jiang Tian's hand, and then chased after Li Jinxuan, "Xiao Xuanxuan, wait for me, you know, my legs are not fast." ”

"These two guys." Jiang Tian shook his head helplessly.

In his hand were two sticky notes, one of which read:

Happy graduation. Time is really strange, the past can't come back, these months I desperately want to go back to the past with you, but I can't find you and me back then.

Graduation may mean that we will finally see each other.

I've been so happy these past few months.

We're going to see you soon.

He Yuexin.

Another reads:

Cherish, I wish you happiness, Yang Xue.

Jiang Tian looked at the piece of paper in his hand blankly, and the words on it slowly blurred.

"I'll go. They all ran away, who did Lao Tzu find to eat and play. ”

Jiang Tian wanted to squeeze out a smile, but the tears still slipped uncontrollably.

Side.

Some of the candidates threw their schoolbags into the sky hard, laughed wildly, and then covered their faces and cried.

Some test takers reach out to their blushing counterparts, breathing rapidly and their eyes sincere.

Some candidates pulled their classmates to ask whether to choose A or B for a certain question, but no one paid attention to them.

Some candidates carefully folded the textbooks neatly, and then looked at the admission ticket in a daze.

Some candidates were lying on their desks, reluctant to leave the exam room.

Some candidates walked out of the school gate and got into their parents' cars, discussing where to travel during the summer vacation, and were elated for the poetry and distance that had been suppressed for three years.

My ignorant youth is gone, and a new chapter in my life has begun.

Graduated.

It's really out of school......

The phone in the bag rang.

Jiang Tian wiped away his tears and took out his mobile phone, it was a call from Xu Ang.

"Happy graduation, little day. Do you feel like you're idle and have nothing to do? Hehe, would you like to come over and do me a favor? ”

"Thank you......" Jiang Tian showed a hint of a smile.

I don't think I'm lonely.

Red Maple Park.

"This place is a little familiar."

"yes." Xu Ang nodded and said with emotion, "In the Li Yu serial peeling case four years ago, the first deceased was found in Hongfeng Park. A year ago, in the Xu Jiaxin serial skinning case, the first deceased was also found here. It's weird, going around and around, and it's back here. ”

A year ago, Li Yu finally shot himself, leaving many unsolved mysteries: why did Li Yu suffer from a psychological disorder and kill people? Who is the other skinner in Li Yu's mouth? What is the thing that was burned by Li Yu? Why is Li Yu so sure that there will be no more skinning maniacs? A lot of things haven't been found out yet. Jiang Tian said.

"I think maybe this case can tell us the answer."

"This case?"

"It's another skinning case."

Next to a tree in Red Maple Park, it was full of people. People were holding their mobile phones and filming them non-stop, and there was a lot of discussion.

On the trunk of the tree, a human face is nailed to the skin!

The forensic doctor carefully removed the nail, held the face in his hand, and examined it carefully for a while.

The skin is thin, dry, and light in the hand, like a frisbee. The skin is somewhat chapped, with small insect-eaten holes, and the edges of the cut are neat and black, as if it has been burned.

"This person has been dead for a long time, conservatively estimated, there are ten years, maybe even more than twenty years, and I have to take it back and examine it carefully."

The deceased, male, about 40 years old, had no obvious injuries on the surface of the body, and the cause of death was unknown.

"There is only one face left, and it is strange that the cause of death can be found. I am a forensic doctor, not a god. The forensic doctor said helplessly.

"Well, excuse me. Is this man really dead for ten years, though? Jiang Tian asked.

The forensic doctor nodded, looked at the potato chip-like face and said, "After the murderer peeled off the face, he dried it and removed all the water. Well, if you think about it this way, it's like a mummy, or a dried corpse. ”

"The murderer killed this man more than ten years ago, saved his face to the present, and then nailed it to this tree. What exactly did the murderer want to do? Xu Ang was puzzled.

The medical examiner turned over the face, glanced at it, and hurriedly said, "Look. ”

On the back of the face, a few words are faintly visible:

May my heirs rest in peace.
