Through the narrow crack in the door, I was amazed to see the long black worms on the wooden table wriggling around the candles, constantly writhing their soft bodies in the yellow halo.

The men, women, and children around the table were deeply buried in their heads, their eyes closed, as if they were asleep.

I retracted my head, this disgusting long bug is really a little weird, how can there be their footprints everywhere in the entire Luogou Lane?!

"Comrade policeman, there is also light there."

Wang Guojian behind him pointed to the house in front of him, and the crack in the door really shone with a pale yellow light.

I had a little guess in my mind and decided to investigate it again, so I tiptoed behind the door.

The door was ajar, and I only had to poke my head out to see the whole room.

In the empty room, a woman with her back to us, her long black hair scattered behind her, she was half-kneeling on the ground, and a round kerosene lamp was hanging in front of her that was glowing yellow.

"She's ...... Dead or alive? Kingdom was built in my ear and muttered in horror.

"Don't talk." I glanced at him and continued to observe the woman in the room.

Suddenly, the woman's body fell down, and she fell face to the ground.

"What's wrong with her? ......" Wang Guojian didn't finish speaking, looked at my slightly angry eyes, and swallowed back.

After a while, the woman's body suddenly leaned back like a spring, and stood upright on the ground.

Something suddenly dawned on me...... Her behavior looks like the three bows and nine bows of the ministers when the ancient emperor went to court. In other words, it is a ritual for descendants to worship their ancestors in the ancestral hall.

"Great, she's alive." Wang Guojian was overjoyed and said, "I've been hungry for a day, let's go in and beg for food." ”

"Don't talk!" I was about to shout at him angrily, but I was horrified to see the woman in the house, "Rub!" of them stood up.

In the dimly lit room, she seemed to sense the sound on our side, and slowly turned around, and the joints on her body came with a crunch sound of "squeak, squeak," and "squeak, squeak."

When the kingdom was established, he opened his mouth and said to her, "Hello girl, we are lost passers-by. I'm so hungry, can you give ......"

Before Wang Guojian finished speaking, the fat body froze directly in place, and his face suddenly changed.

The place on the woman's face, which should have been a pair of bright eyes, turned out to be a bottomless hole the size of two walnuts, and something seemed to be squirming in the black abyss. The cracks in his mouth grinned all the way to the base of his ears, oozing a scarlet, viscous liquid.

Wang Guojian: "Ah!" squatted on the ground with weak legs, "She's a ghost...... What the hell!"

I slapped him the back of the head with my right palm, "What are you screaming for!" What did I tell you?!"

She ...... She's not human at all......" Wang Guojian gasped heavily, and the upper lips of his bloodless face trembled violently.

The woman in the room wriggled her limbs and walked straight towards us.

"Let's go!" I grabbed Wang Guojian and ran backwards, this guy weighed as much as a pig, and he was still dead on his ass.

I dragged him to the corner in a panic, glared at Wang Guojian and said, "You say one more word!" I don't care if you are dead or alive. ”

"Don't! Good...... Okay, I'll not talk about it. Wang Guojian nodded in horror, but his voice was already crying, and tears were flashing in the corners of his eyes. Don't leave me behind. ”

I kept my mind steady and stared at the door, and I picked up the corpse remover in my right hand, and as long as the chased after me, I would kill it first!

"Smack!"

There was a crisp sound, and all the lights in the alley were instantly extinguished. Everything in front of him, even the kingdom around him, was instantly swallowed up by darkness.

I hurriedly turned on the flashlight and glanced around vigilantly, Wang Guojian beside me trembled with a blue face on my right hand.

"Humph! Ha! Ha! Ha...... The fourth watch has arrived, dear little ghost! Welcome to the game!!"

Suddenly there was a shrill shrill laugh in the empty alley, and this laughter was like a mental patient coming from the crack in his throat, which seemed extraordinary in this dark night. Eerie and terrifying.

It can be heard that the sound is obviously transmitted through electronic devices such as speakers or amplifiers, but I don't know if it is due to the poor quality of the equipment or other reasons, the laughter is very hoarse and noisy, which makes people get goosebumps.

My heart was beating uncomfortably, and it seemed ...... In this alley, besides the two of us, there are other living people.

"Who are you?!" I scanned with my flashlight, hoping to find the location of the sound source.

"Haha! Don't be afraid, little ghost, I'm the same kind as you! The cacophony echoed through the alley again, and every word of the voice revealed a playful tone, sounding like a perverted madman!

He's the same kind as me! Isn't that the one who serves, and he's certainly not a fighter.

"Are you...... Night's watchman?!" I was shocked that he was most likely the one who stole the Glass Bowl!

"Haha! The answer is wrong! Lao Tzu does not work for Dawn, nor does he work for Twilight! I'm not a dogleg of any organization! Lao Tzu is an independent!"

What?!independents! I can't help but be puzzled, Lin Lingling and Mu Lao have never told me about this kind of person, could it be that there are still people who don't work for any organization?!

"Don't guess, little ghost, you don't care who I am, just play a game with me."

This playful tone and contemptuous attitude sound like a madman! I don't want to waste time here with him.

I gritted my teeth and exclaimed, "What are you doing sneaky!" I didn't provoke you, why did you steal from me!"

"Haha! Little ghost, who let you mess with others, this is your own way!"

I tried to think about what had happened recently in my mind, and I didn't seem to have provoked anyone, so I only accompanied Lin Lingling to complete the mission once.

Wait a minute! That mission! Could it be ......

"I see, the Four-Eyed Night's Watch called you." I said with a sneer.

The other party was silent for a while, and then said, "Yo roar! Pretty smart! Imp, that's all in your mind! I'd love to cut your head open and see what's there!"

When he said this, it was not like a joke, but he was explaining his language with extreme seriousness, and I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart.

But now that he has confessed, all the mysteries have been solved. The root of the matter is Lin Lingling's mission. I should have known that the man with glasses couldn't swallow this bad breath, after all, Lin Lingling and I ruined his years of hard work, but as the night watchman of Twilight, it was inconvenient for him to tear his face with the watchman and fight hard, because this was to provoke a war between the two organizations.

So, the best thing he thought of was to find a killer who didn't belong to any organization and lure me here to kill me! In this case, there is no proof of death, and the death of the watchman has nothing to do with the Twilight Organization!

It's just that the independent in front of me seems to be a madman, and I can't guess his intentions at the moment.

Lin Lingling should also be in a bad situation, and the man with glasses must want to put us to death. Lin Lingling has a lot of means, and he may be able to escape. But my situation is already very embarrassing, and at present, I can only follow the other party's intentions first and see if I can find a breakthrough.

"Hahaha! Actually, I don't want to help the night watchman! What Lao Tzu hates the most is the servant! I can't wait to peel off all the people who serve them!"

"But...... Hahaha! My favorite thing is games, games are the most interesting thing in the world! Now you play a game with me, and as long as you can successfully pass the three levels I have set, I will return the lantern to you and let you go. ”

"But if you fail...... Hahaha!" After another horrified shriek, a gloomy word came, "You and your lanterns will be torn to shreds by me!"

Hearing this, my face twisted and exclaimed, "Less nonsense! Are you still a three-year-old? Whoever wants to play a game with you, give me back the lantern. ”

The madman ignored me and continued, "There's no turning back for you, now you're in the first level, a hundred ghosts walk at night!"

The voice landed, "Bang! Bang! Bang!" There was a loud sound of the door opening.

I hurriedly scanned with a flashlight, and found that the doors of the houses on both sides of the alley were all open, and black figures walked out of the room, their bodies shaking like marionettes, and moving forward mechanically.

"Listen, little ghost, I'll just say the rules of the game once. Only one of the group was drugged alive, and the rest were dead bodies parasitized by bugs.

"Before all the villagers reach the end of the alley, you must find the only living person left in the crowd, and if you manage to find it, you will be successful. If you haven't found anyone alive by the time everyone reaches the wall at the end of the alley, you've lost the game! Of course, the game has to have penalties to be interesting, and the punishment for failing the first level is - all living people...... All, gotta, die!!"
