When I turned around, I saw that there was nothing behind me. But there is a row of footprints on the ground, and these footprints are still carrying dirt.

"Hey, boy."

I heard the voice, and my nerves immediately tensed. I'm alone in the whole convenience store, who is calling me?

"Where do you look? I'm behind you. "I turned around and saw nothing but the black thing that resembled a shadow on the wall.

Could it be that this black shadow is speaking to me? I wasn't sure, but I was a little scared and took two steps back.

"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you. I'm here to save you. ”

I listened to the shadows on the wall, and then plucked up the courage to ask, "What are you?" ”

"Are you polite when you speak? How can I be something? I am the shadow, the shadow, the shadow. This black shadow emphasizes the word "shadow" several times.

Of course I know that he is a shadow, but how can a shadow have an independent consciousness? Also, why did you follow me to me and say what to save me?

"I don't need you to save me." I replied, and then said, "Let's go!" ”

"Huh?" The black shadow's tone was a little stiff, obviously because of the words, some of which he didn't understand.

"I say, you're a shadowless person right now. You know, what does it mean that humanity has no shadow? Do you want to die? The black shadow spoke, moving away from the wall and coming in front of me.

And I was standing on the ground, and it was like lying on the ground.

"Dead? Doesn't matter. "I really don't want to continue to entangle, since it's fate, why be too willful?

"It's not that the curse on your body is unsolvable, and you just gave up? There's a little girl waiting for you in the county! This beautiful marriage, are you going to give up? "The black shadow kept persuading me.

Seeing that I hadn't said anything, he continued: "Your father, who is nearly fifty years old, raised you single-handedly, do you know why you are just a person and have no brothers and sisters? ”

I don't have any siblings, and I've heard my grandmother say that when I was born, I almost lost my life. It can be regarded as my mother's life, and she survived this difficulty, and my mother and I are all safe. But the doctor told my mother that her body had left the root of the disease because she gave birth to me. The palace was completely unusable, so my mother removed the child at the doctor's suggestion. Palace.

Therefore, my Chen family is the only seedling of me. Grandma also felt sorry for me, after all, I was the only lifeblood of my Chen family.

"If that's what you think, you're very wrong." The shadow seemed to be able to peek into my thoughts, and said, "Actually, you still have an older brother, and he is a twin with you. He was born an hour before you, but I don't know why, after he was born, his whole soul was not in him at all, but in you. ”

I didn't interrupt him, and listened quietly.

"Not many people know about this matter, and if you go to check the hospital information now, it is estimated that you will not be able to find it. But then there's your birth, and you're twins, so you have two souls in you. ”

Two souls? What kind of? I said directly to the shadow on the ground, "Are you a three-year-old?" Let's not talk about whether my mother gave birth to me alone, let's talk about two souls, why do you know? If there were two souls, I would have two shadows, but I don't have any shadows now. ”

"Your shadow has not disappeared, but has been hidden. Because of the curse on your body, the shadow is also self-protecting, and once it finds out that the real crisis is coming, it will find a safe place to hide. Your shadow is like that, and now your shadow should be within you. ”

In my body? I looked at myself, then found the mirror inside, and slowly leaned my face over, but there was nothing in the mirror.

Only people with shadows, in the mirror, or on the glass, or the reflection in the water, or the reflection on the floor tiles can truly reflect themselves. But if it doesn't now, it proves that the shadow is not there at all.

I put the mirror down, then looked at him and asked, "Why is my shadow hidden, what's the danger?" ”

"Hehe, aren't the two curses on your body considered dangerous?"

"This—" This is indeed dangerous, but if the shadow hides, won't I be in danger?

Seeing that I didn't speak, the black shadow continued, "Don't worry, your shadow will be fine. During this time, I will temporarily dwell in my body, acting as your shadow. I'll leave when your shadow returns, okay? ”

"Nope." I outright refuse. "You are not my shadow, why do you want to occupy my body, what if my shadow can't come out because of you?"

"No, your shadow may also awaken your brother's soul, in this case, this is not only a loss, but a greater gain." The black shadow smiled, and then I watched him slowly approach me.

After his feet were connected to mine, I didn't feel anything. Looking at the shadow on the ground that did not belong to me, I moved, and he moved.

I come to the convenience store, tossing back and forth, running, or doing other sports. The shadow on the ground has always been there, and it seems that the shadow has really taken over my body.

"Are you enough? I'm tired. ”

I was dressed roughly, then sat down in a chair, looked at the shadow on the ground and asked, "What the hell are you?" Why are there only shadows? ”

He thought for a while, sighed, and then said to me, "Originally, I was a surgeon, but another operation had an accident, which caused the patient to bleed badly and eventually died. I took this responsibility alone, and then I was sentenced to prison.

But what I think is that when I get out of prison, I will not interfere with being a doctor. After the court verdict, I was taken to the prison in a police car. As you know, our prisons here are all outside, especially Songbei Prison, which can only be reached by bypassing a mountain road.

Halfway through, the car overturned on its side. Collided with a truck, and in that accident, I died. But I don't know why the shadow remained, maybe someone saved me, or maybe this is creation!

When I was confused, a man I didn't know if it was a human or a god appeared, and he told me that if I wanted to live on my own, I had to find a soulless person and live in his body temporarily. In this way, both of us can survive, and my body has been pulled down the morgue, and I can live completely by consciousness. ”

"Who is that person? Man or Immortal? I looked at the shadows on the ground and asked, "Who told you about the fact that I have a twin brother?" ”

"It's him, the one who doesn't know what."
