"Smack."

"Smack."

The sound of leather shoes tapping on the tiled floor came to my ears, like the heavy raindrops hitting the glass window at midnight in late autumn.

This image of detachment made me suddenly realize that I was no longer in my cramped bedroom.

I am...... Where is it?

The footsteps approached again, and at the same time, I smelled a smell of formalin, and a hint of ...... Corpse stench.

But I could barely think.

Because of the indescribable pain in my back, it was as if it had been inserted directly into the marrow of my spine, and then slowly twisted, causing all the muscles and nerves of my body to twitch and let out a silent howl!

I trembled weakly, and could only press my back as close to the wall as I could, for the cold coming from the wall relieved some of my pain, and I ran desperately towards the Haishi Tower like a thirsty traveler in the desert.

"Smack, click."

The footsteps stopped very close to me.

I heard an "um", and I could be sure that the owner of the voice was a very nasal man, no younger than thirty years old, followed by a series of metal crashes—much like a bunch of keys being shaken open......

I was right.

Because immediately after that, I heard the sound of the lock being unlocked and the door being opened.

The man who opened the door passed me, and I smelled a peculiar cologne scent—it completely overshadowed the smell of formalin and corpse in this moment—but after only one moment, the two scents became stronger.

The sharp pain in my back seemed to ease, and I propped up my body with my weak hands, and at the same time secretly thought to myself: Could the room behind the door be a place to store corpses? So where would I be?

Also, the man who opened the door, can't he see me?

I couldn't see with my eyes, so I followed the sound, holding my hands alternately against the wall, and walked into the room.

In the corner of the room, there was a sound of dripping water, and just not far from me, there was the sound of cloth rubbing, and the man "hissed" and took a breath, as if he was a little excited?

Then, as if undressing? Because I heard the sound of what appeared to be the sound of unleashing and the sound of clothes being thrown aside.

"Hey, anyone?" I shouted.

No response.

It stands to reason that the place must be relatively closed, but I can't hear even a single echo.

Another illusion?

But my hand touched a piece of cold skin at this time......

It's a corpse, and it's a female corpse of a red fruit.

"Beauty, I'm here...... Hmmm—"

The man finally spoke, but the tone was confusing to me: he was talking to ...... Corpse...... Speak?

But my doubts were quickly dispelled.

Another warm body pressed down and hugged the cold female corpse...... Rhythm ......

A fishy smell crept into my nostrils – I guessed what it was.

At this moment, a lightning-fast conjecture appeared in my mind, and the truth was so contrary to the norm that it immediately caused a rapid nausea to rise in my stomach, and at the same time, I felt that the air around me was condensed with a kind of rotten and vicious cold, which made me creep.

Shocked, I pulled out my hand that was caught between the two bodies, took a few sharp steps back, and with a "clang" of my back, I slammed into the steel bed where the corpse was placed.

"Who?!"

The man stopped in an instant and screamed, but his voice trembled, as if he had been frightened more horribly than I was.

"Who's there!" The man said in a trembling voice.

But I can't answer him anymore.

Can't even breathe.

Because several pairs of cold arms were grabbing my throat, and more arms were sticking out from behind my back, hugging my whole body tightly—

I was like a mummy, wrapped in layers......

……

I don't know how long it took.

"Boom! Click-"

There was a sound above me, and then I saw the light—unfolding in the shape of a spider's web, as if the sky of night had cracked, and light had cast into my world......

"Aggie! How are you? ”

"Doctor! Doctor—"

Several vague figures swayed in front of me, and Cheng Cheng seemed to be among them.

Then, someone opened my eyelids and illuminated my pupils with a light.

I just felt something choke my throat, and I was anxious to tell them about my condition, but my whole body was so weak that I lost the strength to open my eyes, so I had to let them toss.

"It's apnea caused by suffocation, hurry up and do CPR!"

Someone started pressing on my chest.

"I'm going to do artificial respiration!" The voice of the old knife.

"Gmm

Before the old knife's smoky mouth pounced, I mustered all my strength and finally coughed up what was stuck in my throat!

I saw it—what I vomited out turned out to be Li Jianguo's two eyeballs!

Then, I coughed violently and began to breathe rapidly.

"Open the window! Also, it's all fucking scattered! I felt the old knife drag me and rush to the light, "Air! He needs fresh air! ”

It took me a long time to recover.

During this time, I finally knew where I was.

On the floor in the middle of the room, there was a corpse, judging from the appearance, it was undoubtedly Liu Yan, but Liu Yan's head was broken all over the ground......

"Five repeating rifles, firing at the same time, so ......" Cheng Cheng noticed my gaze and explained to me like this, and at the same time, shrugged his shoulders.

I looked around, and there were bullet holes in the walls and furniture of the bedroom, and there was a large patch of soup and water on the floor......

Looking at the mess in front of me, I felt a tightness in my chest.

And I noticed that I had a crimson carapace-like shard attached to my body, of different sizes and shapes, and I tore off a piece with my hand, and it felt very hard.

I took the red fragment in my hand to my nose and smelled it, and I smelled blood, and asked, "What is this?" ”

The old knife said: "When we rushed in, we found that there was a crimson cocoon-like thing on the ground, which looked very much like a human shape. ”

I was stunned, and I couldn't help but look at the carapace-like fragment in my hand again, and I could hardly believe that I had just been trapped by such a strange thing.

Judging by the constituent substance, this should be flesh and blood, that is, I was wrapped in a "blood cocoon" just now.

No wonder, in that vision, I felt like I was being wrapped in countless hands, like a mummy...... It turned out to be the process of coagulating the blood cocoon on the body.

Didn't Liu Yan want to "aggregate the soul of the dragon"?

Why don't you just devour me with the tattoos - as if she had devoured Li Jianguo?

Trapping me with a blood cocoon is it trying to take me somewhere?

And another thing that makes me wonder is - what is the illusion I entered in a trance?

I seemed to feel like that place was very familiar to me...... I may not have arrived in person, but I have some impression of the atmosphere.

Where is it?

While I was deep in thought, a police officer walked up to Cheng Cheng's side and whispered a word in his ear.

"Zou Xianshan's body has been found." Cheng Cheng said, with a very strange look on his face, "At the same time, the results of the DNA match have also come out, and none of them can be successfully matched." ”
