Chapter 58: A Familiar Feeling

In the days that followed, nothing happened again. But the feeling of being targeted all the time made me very uncomfortable.

One night a few days later, I was asleep when I was woken up by a rapid ringing of my phone. On the other end of the phone was Shen Mo's anxious voice:

"Come on, come to our unit!"

Then, there was the doctor's terrible scream, which sounded like a woman of no small age.

I grabbed my clothes and ran out, and when I got out of the elevator, I ran into a man head-on, and I said "I'm sorry" and ran out in a hurry.

Sitting in the taxi, the image of passing by the man suddenly flashed in front of my eyes, and his eyes had a faint sense of familiarity, as if he had seen it somewhere, but I couldn't remember anything.

The place where Shen Mo works is not in the compound of the Public Security Bureau, but in a separate courtyard. I just knew what criminal department she was transferred to, but I never asked what department it was.

It was an old building with four floors. The exterior wall is yellow, and Shen Mo said that it was a small building built in the early nineties, and it seemed to be a temporary settlement for a hospital during the war.

The yard is not big, only the size of a basketball court, and there is a large willow tree next to the wall, which looks to be hundreds of years old, long and crooked, and the long willow branches hang down on the ground, dense like a huge umbrella.

That's when I noticed that the little building looked a little out of place in the whole street complex. First of all, it is built diagonally, neither north-south nor east-west, but with its back to northeast and southwest. Secondly, it has a unique architectural style, with a total of four floors, and the number and appearance of each floor are exactly the same. Moreover, on the lintel of each room, there is a round-arched rain shield.

From a distance, the whole building looks like coffins stacked on top of each other.

I stood downstairs and called Shen Mo, and she told me to go to the third floor immediately.

The stairs of this old-fashioned building are all outside, and the lights in the yard go out the moment I step on the stairs. Even though something didn't feel right, I didn't stop.

The staircase is made of iron, and there are holes in it, and there is a "knock" sound when you step on it. From the second floor, I found that I would hear two "dong" sounds every time I stepped on it, and the overlap was so perfect that I couldn't hear it if I didn't listen carefully.

But as soon as I stopped, the sound disappeared completely. When I stepped up the stairs on the second floor, I found that it was so dark that I couldn't see my fingers, and I couldn't get my lighter when I took out it. Just as I was hesitating to go any further, my phone rang.

Pressing the answer button, a cacophony came from the earpiece.

I tried to "feed" twice, but no one spoke. Just about to hang up, a low and hoarse female voice came from the phone:

"You can't escape!"

I felt a chill in my vest, and the cold sweat on my head came down.

"Who are you?!"

There was a hint of horror in my voice, anger.

The other party let out a "ho-ho" sound as if he had been stepped on his neck and hung up the phone.

Gritting my teeth, I continued to run upstairs, but there were only a dozen stairs, and I couldn't even walk to the end.

I tried to close my eyes and look at my surroundings with ghost eyes, but I found nothing but a tingling pain in my eyebrows.

That inexplicable sense of fear came out of my heart again. I kept telling myself not to be afraid, but the fear was getting stronger, and I even felt like I was dying. I heard Shen Mo calling me:

"Liu Wu! Where are you? ”

I wanted to speak, but I opened my mouth but couldn't make a sound, and a feeling of despair rose in my heart. Suddenly, a pair of powerful hands grabbed me by the neck. I tried to struggle, I wanted to resist, but I couldn't lift my arms.

In the darkness, I saw a pair of eyes, with a trace of forbearance, a trace of pity, and a deep unwillingness and helplessness in their eyes.

My consciousness gradually blurred, and the feeling of death gradually enveloped me. Although he was very unwilling and didn't want to die so inexplicably, he didn't even have the ability to resist at all.

Once again, the world is plunged into boundless darkness.

The figure of a man appeared in front of him, dragging a naked female corpse in his hand. He walked very slowly and was a little lame in his left leg.

There was only a tin board in the empty room, and he threw the female corpse on it, and turned to take a sharp scalpel.

Soon, the skin on the female corpse was completely peeled off, and even her facial features were not damaged in any way. He put the human skin aside, cut open the abdominal cavity of the female corpse, took out the internal organs one by one, and placed them neatly on the board.

Then, one by one, the flesh of the female corpse was removed until only a white skeleton remained. The man seemed to be very excited, and from time to time he stuffed the cut meat into his mouth and chewed it heavily, with a look of satisfaction on his face.

The skeleton was placed in a strangely shaped machine, and within a short time, it was completely pressed into powder and flowed into a bag.

After doing all this, the man picked up the human skin, buried his whole face in the human skin, and took a deep breath, with an intoxicated look on his face.

After loading the meat and entrails on the board, and carefully holding the human skin, the man turned and walked out of the room. I followed him into a dimly lit hallway and watched him open a door and throw meat and offal inside.

Through the glass, I saw the strange shapes inside. Most of them are baby-like monsters, covered in bruises, similar to what they saw in Lu Fei's house, but they are much older, and some are already four or five years old.

They seemed to smell the smell of flesh and blood, and rushed over, scrambling to tear the bag, grabbing the pieces of meat and internal organs and stuffing them into their mouths, chewing and swallowing with great pleasure on their faces.

There are also some weird-looking things: giant mice, hairless cats and dogs, and even a skinned crocodile. All of these monsters have one thing in common, they all have a human face!

Despite its ugliness, human characteristics are distinct. They compete with each other and bite just to be able to eat more.

The man looked at them and smiled happily.

I followed him into another room, flanked by chests and in the middle of which was an incense table with a shrine. He slowly walked to the incense desk and knelt down, muttering something he didn't know what he was talking about.

He grabbed a handful of incense ash and stuffed it into the human skin, and then kept filling it with something weird, I don't know what it was. But it didn't take long for the human skin to bulge again in his hand, and it looked like a naked beauty...
