Chapter 3: Homicide
Midnight.
There was silence all around.
It's a very ordinary asphalt road, it's not very wide, but it's dark.
Because there are no street lights.
There is not even a trace of anyone.
It is probably located in the middle of nowhere, or on the outskirts of the city.
It is surrounded by a forest of lush trees.
In the rendering of the night, everything is black and dark.
There is a moon tonight, though.
The moon was not very round, but there was a faint light shining down.
So, it's not so dark that you can't see your fingers.
Su Che and Melinda clasped their hands and walked into this dream, to such a place.
Su Che didn't feel the tension here.
However, before something happens, everything is normal.
It's a very ordinary place, not weird.
It's a short time that no one cares about, and it's not scary.
Even though I knew what might happen next, I didn't have any negative emotions in my heart.
"Sister, you should be someone who grew up in the city, right?" Sucher asked.
"yes."
"Just look at it."
"Oh?"
"You haven't been here at midnight, have you?"
"Well, yes."
"You lack common sense."
"Oh? Why? What's wrong? β
"Of course."
ββ¦β¦β
"This season, there are crickets in the bushes, and on such a night, the crickets will play and sing desperately."
Melinda suddenly realized, "yes, how did I forget that. β
"The cicada noise forest is more quiet, and the birdsong mountain is more secluded."
"What?"
"A poem. You've probably heard of it, right? β
""Into Ruoye Creek" written by the poet Wang Ji of the Northern and Southern Dynasties?"
"Uh-huh. This poem has a lot of meaning, and his mood is derived from life. β
"It seems that I really lack common sense, and this must be changed."
"Yes, a work of art that is admirable needs to be supplied with life. That poem is a work of art from the king's book, and this dream is yours. β
"Therefore, I not only want to urge you to study, but also let yourself study hard, constantly improve yourself, and create your own masterpieces."
Su Che smiled.
Melinda looked at him and suddenly felt that he no longer looked like a teenager.
He does take something very seriously......
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
In the woods, a dark shadow appeared.
He's wandering.
I don't know when he appeared, or what he's going to do here.
It seems to be waiting for a car to pass by this section.
And the reality lives up to expectations.
A car with its headlights on, appeared.
There were three people in the car.
The men drove, the women sat in the passenger seat, and their children sat in the back seat.
The child looks like he is seven or eight years old and looks naughty and cute.
He put his hands on the backs of the chairs in the two seats in front of him, talking and laughing with his parents.
The parents' expressions are also bright.
A family of three, very happy.
Apparently unaware of their approaching danger.
- Who knows what they're going to do next in this world?
- Staying on earth, or dying, sometimes we really can't choose.
Seeing the car appear, a dark shadow in the woods walked out.
He stood on the road.
Regardless of life or death, stand where the fast-moving car is about to arrive.
The man obviously couldn't have imagined that someone would suddenly break into the road.
It's a no-man's land, how could someone suddenly show up?
However, he didn't have time to think about it.
It's too late to turn the wheel.
Quickly hit the brakes.
Emergency braking to bring the car to a stop.
Fortunately, although the speed of the car was fast, it was driving at night, and it was not more than seventy yards high.
The car came to a stop less than a third of a meter from the shadow.
At the same time, the fire was extinguished.
It's thrilling.
After confirming that it was safe, the man opened the glass window and yelled at the black shadow: "Don't die, you? If you don't sleep in the middle of the night, come to this kind of place for a walk, and suddenly appear on the road, do you want to die? β
The black shadow stood there silently and said lightly, "I'm sorry, but ...... I did it on purpose. β
After hearing this, the man was stunned.
Randomly, he had a premonition of danger.
It is impossible to come to such a place in the middle of the night and deliberately block in front of passing cars.
And the other party's purpose is obvious.
Either rob or ask for your life.
The man's nerves tensed.
He quickly lit the car and started it.
But it was too late.
The black shadow quickly ran to the window next to the driver's seat, raised the knife in his hand, and stabbed the man in the throat......
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Everything was so sudden.
Su Che tried to go over to stop him, but was stopped by Melinda.
"What are you going to do?"
"Save them ......"
And casually spit out this sentence, Su Che immediately shut up.
It's a dream.
He can only watch what should have happened continue to happen, and he can't change it.
Here, he is no different from the existence of nothingness.
He can see the people in the dream, but the people in the dream can't see him.
He witnessed the tragedy happening, but he couldn't do anything about it.
I should have known this a long time ago, but ...... On the spur of the moment, I still forgot.
"What you have to do now is to find out the flaws in this dream and see what makes you wonder about the whole process, instead of ...... In vain came to the rescue. β
ββ¦β¦β
"I have already told you that the scene in this dream is constructed by my own imagination, although it is based on facts, but there are many discrepancies."
ββ¦β¦β
"All you have to do is point out the doubts you see and ask me to correct the dream so that it becomes more realistic."
ββ¦β¦ I know. β
Suche continued to watch silentlyβ
Something happened to the man, and blood gushed out.
The woman screamed.
The voice was poignant and desperate.
The child burst into tears.
The woman and the child looked at the dark shadow, and both fell into panic and fear.
The shadow moved to the passenger window.
The woman knew that the black shadow was going to deal with her, and her body squeezed hard into the driver's seat.
Her husband's blood stained her clothes.
She cried even more sadly.
But everything she did was in vain.
The black shadow took the knife and stabbed the woman in the thigh.
The woman was so pained that she pulled herself away.
That's what the Dark Shadow wants.
The shadow immediately stabbed her in the throat......
Blood gushed out.
And she grabbed the arm of the black shadow and said in despair: "Xiao Xin, ...... quickly Run......"
These words made her spit blood out of her mouth.
Xiao Xin is the child's name.
The child was so frightened that his limbs were weak and he could not move.
He didn't hear what his mother was saying.
He sat there, crying helplessly and sadly.
"I'm not going to let you die first, but I'm going to make you feel helpless."
The dark shadow said coldly.
The man's eyes widened, wondering what the shadow was up to.
The dark shadow gave him an answer with practical actions.
The shadow moved to the back window and smashed open the window with his elbow.
Then he leaned in and grabbed the child's head.
Before the child could struggle or call for help, the knife in the black shadow's hand came and fell a few times.
A life.
Died without much pain in the past.
The husband and wife wanted to scream hysterically, but all that came out of their mouths was blood.
They looked at the shadows in despair and anger.
And the black shadow said coldly: "Let's look at your children, your days are short, before you die, should you take a more look at my enemy, or should you take a more look at your children?" β
