Moonlit nights, lights, cool breezes, autumn leaves.

The trees are withering, the dead leaves are falling off, and it is late autumn.

Next to the school, on a silent and deserted path.

The only street lamp plays its role, illuminating a large area of the road.

Today, when the moonlight is not bright, the street lamps in the dark paths are undoubtedly the only light for passers-by, which is reassuring.

March Mountain Jiuxing is also feeling this way at this moment.

As a student at this nearby school, compared to other students, Jiuxing is undoubtedly a maverick.

At this moment when the others had already returned home, he had just walked out of the school, carrying a schoolbag that did not store many books, and walked slowly towards his destination.

This trail is the only way for him to return home.

He passed by here every day, and Jiuxing had already gained experience, so despite the darkness around him, he was still able to avoid obstacles and move forward with ease.

Ahead is the only street light in the short stretch of the road.

The dim yellow light, although not very bright, was undoubtedly very exciting in this dark environment.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and the pace of Jiuxing's feet quickened a few points, and he came to the street lamp.

Here, there is a vending machine with a red appearance.

He took a coin out of his pocket and stuffed it into the slot, and Jiuxing pressed one of the buttons and chose a can of tea that he often drank.

"It's really troublesome, in this day and age, you can only drink this kind of ......"

While complaining, Jiuxing bent down and picked up the green tea that fell out.

His gaze casually swept to the side, and his body suddenly froze, and then tensed violently.

"Who!"

With a low shout, Jiuxing quickly got up, assumed a defensive posture, and stared at the front tightly.

Over there, at the junction of the light of the street lamp and the darkness, a black figure stood against the wall.

The place where the other party stands is very delicate.

The body is at the junction where the light disappears into darkness, which is a visual weak point, and the average person who comes here is likely to ignore it because of the influence of the light.

In fact, if Jiuxing didn't bend down to get a drink, and his eyes inadvertently swept over there, he would also subconsciously ignore the existence of the other party.

Silently, without the slightest movement, he just stood there, his body as if it merged with the darkness around him.

This figure in the darkness, after hearing Jiuxing's shouts, finally made some movements.

The closed eyes opened, and the figure turned its head.

After paying attention to the guarded Jiuxing for a while, the black shadow put his hands in his pockets and slowly walked out of the darkness.

The light shines and completely presents his face in Jiuxing's eyes.

"Tono-san?"

Slightly stunned, Jiu Xing looked at the figure in front of him in surprise, his body movements relaxed slightly, but he still maintained some vigilance.

"It's so late, why haven't you gone back, standing here, are you waiting for someone?"

Try to make a smile on your face, Kuyuki said with a smile to Tono on the other side.

"......" Tono stared at Kuyuki for a long time, until the smile on Kuyuki's face became a little stiff, and he showed a slight smile, "Yes, I'm waiting for someone." ”

"Huh? Yes...... Is it? ”

I don't know why, being stared at by Tono, he was always a little creepy, thinking of what he had to do, Jiuxing touched his head and snorted: "That, Tono-san, it's not too early, I'll leave first." ”

An uneasy mood made Jiuxing want to get out of here quickly, so he quickly picked up his drink, then smiled at Tono reluctantly, walked towards the front, slightly sideways, wanting to bypass Tono, and then left.

Click~

There was a soft thud.

Tono took a step to the right, blocking Kuyuki's path and blocking his way.

"Tono-san, is there anything else?"

Jiuxing's face changed, and the uneasiness in his heart deepened a little, but he still forced a smile and looked up at Tono.

The young man in front of him had neat broken hair and a handsome face, and on the bridge of his nose, the black-framed glasses added a bit of bookish air to him, and he looked extremely delicate.

If a girl sees each other, it is estimated that her eyes will light up and she will subconsciously have a good impression.

But Jiuxing is not a girl, at this moment, looking at Tono's face, he has some faint fear.

This feeling...... Ever since he became that...... It never seems to have been.

His strong intuition told him that the person in front of him was dangerous, but through his own observation, Jiuxing felt that the other party looked harmless to humans and animals.

This strange phenomenon, which is diametrically opposed, gave him a very awkward feeling.

"The person I'm waiting for is you, Mr. March Mountain Jiuxing."

In the midst of chuckling, Tono looked at Jiuxing, and there seemed to be a different meaning in his eyes.

"Wait, wait for me? Tono-san, do you have something to do? ”

Hearing the other party's words, Jiuxing was stunned for a moment.

Although they are classmates, the relationship between him and Tono is not bad or bad, and he is a stranger, except for the usual meeting in class, there is no intersection at all.

The other party will wait for him here...... Jiuxing had no idea why he was waiting for him.

"There's one thing that needs the help of Marchshan."

"Ah...... Oh? ”

Jiuxing, who was pondering, heard the other party's words, and his eyes became even more strange.

If you want someone to help you, you should usually be a good friend, or ...... Is there something that you have to find yourself?

After thinking about it carefully in his mind, Jiuxing didn't feel that the other party would have to help him with anything.

"I need ...... Borrow your life and use it......" The curvature of the corners of his mouth gradually spread, and Tono looked at Jiuxing, "Sanyueshan-san." ”

"What!"

Hisayuki almost suspected that he had misheard, and looked up at Tono with a look of astonishment.

The other party had a smile on his face, and his eyes were firmly fixed on Jiuxing.

"Tono-san, are you kidding?"

Taking a deep breath, the uneasiness in Jiuxing's heart deepened a little, but thinking of his identity, he calmed down again, his eyes were slightly cold, and he stared at Tono.

"March Mountain for a long time? Hehe...... Do you know what is the biggest difference between the dead and the living? The disgusting, rancid smell...... It's right in front of my eyes. ”

"What! You ......"

was shocked again, and his originally calm expression disappeared completely.

Jiuxing looked at Tono in shock, and all kinds of thoughts in his heart turned, and suddenly, a glimmer of realization flashed in his mind.

"Tono? Tono! Ling Tono! Your last name is Tono?! That Tono?! ”

"Ah...... yes, Tono. ”

Jiuxing's words made Tono Ling chuckle.

There is nothing to hide, Tono Ling nodded directly in agreement with the other party's words.

"I see, no wonder I was found...... Wrong! ”

While muttering to himself, Jiuxing suddenly thought of one more thing: "Tono Ling? How could the Tono family have Tono Ling? ”

Keeping his eyes on the other party, Jiuxing thought of another possibility, which made the cold sweat on his face continue to drip down.

"Why not?"

"If it's Tono, it should only be Shinhisa Tono, Akiba Tono, and Shiki Tono, even if you add Shiki ......"

"There are only four of them, right?" Ling Tono smiled lightly.

Boom~

Jiuxing swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked at Tono Ling in front of him, the one in his heart may have been almost certain at this moment.

"Who did you replace?"

With a slightly trembling voice, Jiuxing was ready to run away at any time.

Because he knew that whoever was replaced by the person in front of him was not something that a little Dead Apostle like him who had just been converted could resist.

"Want to run away?"

When the other party's words fell, Jiuxing's pupils shrank suddenly, and then he turned his head without hesitation, and his body turned into a phantom, instantly rushing out more than ten meters at a speed beyond common sense.

In just the blink of an eye, Jiuxing ran more than ten meters, and the light in front of him was the light of the street lamps on the road outside.

As long as you can go to the street, no matter how terrifying the guy behind you is, you won't dare to 'kill' openly, right?

Thinking like this, under the domination of the desire to survive, Jiuxing's speed broke through the limit and accelerated by a few points.

But he didn't have the slightest emotion of excitement.

Because, beside him, a small knife carved with the word 'Seven Nights' is parallel to his body, flying at the same speed.

Tono ...... Seven Nights...... It turned out to be the murderer......

Such a thought flashed in his heart, and the fear in Jiuxing's heart deepened a little.

Hurry up, hurry up, only by running out of here can you have the possibility of survival.

The light in front of him is getting bigger and bigger, and there are still two meters left, and you can run out.

Two meters, one meter, half a meter!

Jiuxing's heart showed a look of excitement, but at this moment, there was a whisper in his ear-

"Extreme Death - Seven Nights."

As the words fell, Jiuxing found that his body became lighter.

'He' flew.

Flying higher and higher, he crossed a graceful arc in the air, and then fell heavily to the ground.

The sky was spinning, rolling on the ground, and the moment before the sight turned into darkness, Jiuxing saw that because of inertia, he continued to move forward...... Own...... Body......

A body without a head!
