Although the night has arrived, for the city, the bustling bustle has just begun.

Chen Ziqi walked down the street, moving with the crowd.

The initial sense of security in the crowd fades away, replaced by an invisible sense of detachment.

Maybe it's because she still can't let go of what happened before.

Is the White Shadow a ghost wandering in an abandoned building? Is the falling White Shadow really dead?

These questions swirled around in her mind, but they were still unanswered.

As a staunch atheist, what is happening today is too incredible for her to have such a reverie.

However, ghosts can indeed be real things. After all, this was witnessed by her and Gu Xinyi together, and if it was explained by a simple illusion, it would be too far-fetched, and even she couldn't convince herself......

It wasn't until she got to the door that she realized she had been thinking about it for so long.

Then she pulled out the key and opened the door, the warmth of home freeing her from her previous state.

Even if there were ghosts, they were too far away from her. What's more, as long as she doesn't go to the abandoned building anymore, she won't encounter these things.

After changing her shoes and passing through the hallway, she saw her mother sitting in the hall, as if waiting for her arrival.

"I'm sorry, I went out with my new friend today."

After thinking about it for a long time, Chen Ziqi still didn't tell the truth.

Except for the person who has experienced this kind of thing, even if other people listen carefully, most of them will take it as a joke later.

Hearing this, Chen Man nodded, and hummed, his face was still so flat and indifferent, but his body was slightly relaxed.

Chen Man, like an ordinary middle-aged woman, even if she had a beautiful appearance when she was young, she could only be reduced to mediocrity at this age.

Looking at the silver hair born by her mother, who turned her head to hot soup, Chen Ziqi's heart was slightly sour.

From childhood to adulthood, my mother has been with me.

Even though her mother is very ordinary, in her heart, her mother is the greatest.

"Alright, let's eat quickly."

The hot meal was served on the table, and the warm and familiar feeling made a faint smile appear on Chen Ziqi's face.

When picking up vegetables, the two unconsciously talked about school.

"My table mates still don't pay attention to me, and they still sleep in class every day." Chen Ziqi was a little deflated.

Actually, she didn't plan to mention Su Mo, but the fact that she met him tonight made her feel impressed.

Her curiosity about him had been deepening.

After all, she had never met such a weird person.

"Maybe he doesn't like you." Chen Man said.

Dislike?

Chen Ziqi silently read her mother's words, but she didn't agree with it in her heart.

It's not so much that Su Mo doesn't like himself, but that he doesn't like everyone.

I really don't know what happened to Su Mo's body, and he would form such a character.

If it were her, if she was treated like this, she would definitely transfer to another school, but what was the point of him going to school like this?

It's a mystery.

After eating, Chen Ziqi rarely turned on the computer, the screen was covered with a layer of dust, and the solidified stains were like marks on people's faces.

Opening the search engine, she looked up for information about the ghost.

There are more paranormal events than she imagined, but most of them have been explained by modern science, and those mysterious cloaks have been removed, and the so-called supernatural seems to be just a coincidence.

Could it be that she is like that?

She was originally determined, and she was uncertain at this time.

Chen Ziqi, who was lying on the bed, always lingered outside the facts.

……

The dark world at night is not only a time for sneaky people's activities, but also a paradise for thugs to revel.

Violence, intimidation, fraud, threats.

Tragedy is happening all the time, but it is not the same protagonist who appears thousands of times.

"Don't, don't, please let me go......"

A good-looking woman is dragged into a street corner by several men.

The sobbing plea was like music, first high-pitched, then low...... Until annihilation, and then there were only vulgar obscenities of men.

He walked by indifferently, and he couldn't say that he hated it all, and he couldn't say that he liked it. Because he was one of them.

These intertwined tributaries, which converge together, are the dark rivers that every city has.

Deeper down the block, he arrived at the purpose of his trip.

Under the low bungalow, there was an indescribable stench of decay everywhere, and although the door was closed, it was a broken padlock that hung down, which gave him a strange sense of difference.

Because he didn't expect the thief to live in such a place.

Push the door into the house, and there are no extra items except for the bed and chairs.

Several corners of the walls were covered with dust, and cobwebs crawled in between, apparently because the owner of the house was unwilling to sweep them.

After a cursory glance, Su Mo sat on the bed extremely naturally, raised his head and neck, and looked out the window.

The long ink-stained night was dark and quiet, and it was better if there were no annoying noises.

His day is different from ordinary people, the white night is an upside-down clock, so he is often sleepy during the day and like a fish in water in the dark.

This is also the reason why he catches up on sleep during the day......

Zhao Chonghui, who came to the door of the house as usual, felt a little strange, the door was half-hidden, and when he vaguely saw the people inside through the condensed moonlight, he was immediately startled.

"Big ...... Big brother, why are you here. ”

"You don't have to turn on the lights, just say that."

Seeing Zhao Chonghui raise his hand to touch the switch on the wall, he said immediately.

"Okay, okay."

Although Zhao Chonghui said that he was miserable in his heart, he walked into the house and was glad that there was darkness in front of him, because he knew that his face must be ugly.

"Tell me about the woman."

He doesn't care about authenticity, enjoying the darkness that gives him another vision, like a wide-angle lens, only more concrete.

Zhao Chonghui, who heard the words, was relieved, and he already had a draft for this.

"She's pretty good-looking, her husband is dead, she should be a widow, and she has a daughter." Zhao Chonghui recalled for a while, "In the past few days, except for going to the vegetable market in the morning, I have been looking for a job before the evening, but it has not been smooth, and I still haven't found ......."

He listened quietly without interrupting until Zhao Chonghui finished talking about everything before asking, "Is anyone looking for her?" ”

"People?" Zhao Chonghui shook his head, "I didn't see anyone, she doesn't seem to have any friends." ”

They haven't found Xia Lan yet......

Su Mo didn't ask any more questions, and pulled out the hand that had been in his pocket.

A finger-long thing was revealed, lined with faint moonlight, and it seemed to be a golden flash in Zhao Chonghui's eyes.

He was stunned at first, then greedy, and his inflated desire even made him move his mind in the next moment, but soon the dangerous gaze of the person opposite made him realize the reality.

"Thank you, big brother, thank you, big brother."

Just when Zhao Chonghui was about to take the gold bar, he heard him say: "Take it, I will come to you next time." ”

"Okay, big brother, no problem."

ignored Zhao Chonghui's seemingly sincere words, after all, he didn't care about the words of the dead.

Getting up, he walked out the door.

Above them, the cloud-obscured sky remained silent.

It's a long night.
