monster's bride

"Her life is much better than most people working at the bottom of Beijing. I went to investigate her company. Her business ability and reputation are also very good. She has no workplace conflicts and her life seems to be going well."

Shi Yu: "Have you found out who her parents are?"

"Not yet. You also know that the conditions in Fox Village are backward. The DNA has not been stored in the database. It is completely like a caveman's secluded state. It will take some time."

Shi Yu felt vaguely uneasy. He always remembered the truth that the woman said she wanted him to find, saying that it would make him regret it. He didn't know what else they would do.

"But there is good news. We got the address of the girl's home through her company."

"Go now." Shi Yu immediately took the car keys and prepared to leave. On the way, he received a call from the funeral home.

At this point in time, Bai Wushu was keeping vigil for his wife and children.

The person at the funeral home spoke urgently, "Is it Shi Yu? We saw your name on the contact list. Would you like to come over and see your father now? He just went crazy in the mourning hall for no reason."

When Shi Yu arrived at the funeral parlor in a hurry, he saw Bai Wushu squatting outside the mourning hall, his hands covered with solidified black blood. A sharp knife fell on the ground. He passed by and took a look before walking inside.

Several corpse restorers were urgently dealing with the things scattered on the ground.

Shi Yu just took a few glances and immediately left in disgust. The staff next to him explained to him, "Mr. Bai suddenly used a knife to cut up his children and wife. I think you should take him to a psychiatric department."

He took Bai Wushu to the park next to him. His expression was sluggish, showing the tragic defeat of a dead person, and he murmured: "It wants to kill me because of my betrayal, and it won't let me go."

"But I don't want to die." Bai Wushu said, "I have nothing left."

There were no cameras in the mourning hall, and he was the only one in the situation at that time. According to his description, his wife and children suddenly sat up and wanted to kill him. This frightened him, and he rushed out to find a knife and came back like a maniac. slashed at them.

But how could a corpse sit up and kill people?

There is no other possibility except that there is something wrong with one's mental state.

But Shi Yu believed it.

"You can't escape," he said.

Bai Wushu was silent for a long time: "Has the cursed stone been dug out?"

Shi Yu: "It will take a while. During this time, I can only pray for your good luck."

He didn't have much affection for this father. As one of the culprits who indirectly killed his mother, he couldn't provide any effective help.

He turned around and prepared to go to the house of the suicidal woman, and heard Bai Wushu behind him ask: "But I was suddenly very curious. Does it know that you want to destroy the temple? It obviously has many opportunities to kill you, so why doesn't it do it to you?" Take action?"

Shi Yu paused in his steps and turned to look at him.

The surprise on his face was enough for Bai Wushu to understand, and he suddenly realized, "The girl surnamed Lu you told me about, right? She is helping you."

Shi Yu: "I don't know."

He only asked Lu Zhizhi about her choice, but never really asked her to do anything.

But after what Bai Wushu said, it seemed that no one could stop the monster from reaching this point.

Bai Wushu suddenly laughed nervously, his eyes widening, "Is it true, is it true that it allowed you to bring death to it, and it didn't break the girl's promise to protect you?"

"Love? Is it because of love?"

He couldn't believe that a monster could have love, it was beyond his understanding, but there was hope for a new life.

When people reach middle age, they are more afraid of life and death than when they were young.

"You can take care of yourself." Shi Yu didn't want to listen to his nonsense anymore. After handling the matters at the funeral home, he rushed to the woman's rental house.

Two colleagues have already arrived here.

The rental house was very small, with one bedroom and one living room, and the things it could carry were limited. They tried their best to find things they felt were useful, but nothing was helpful in advancing the case.

"It's just a normal rental house, nothing special."

Shi Yu looked around and finally went to the balcony to smoke a cigarette.

Under the sunset, the colleague next to me sighed, "Her body was transported to the funeral parlor, and the news was also placed in Fox Village. No one has claimed it for the time being."

There are many green plants on the balcony. After spring, flowers bloom everywhere, and the pink colors are beautiful.

A colleague said: "How could a girl who loves to grow flowers and decorate her rental house so warmly be brainwashed by a cult to be like this?"

"I don't know either." Shi Yu returned to the living room after smoking a cigarette. He stopped suddenly as he passed the TV, turned his head and looked at a photo placed on the cabinet.

The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the group photo, blurring the childish face of the woman, and the shadow magnified the mature man next to her.

Very familiar.

Indescribably familiar.

Shi Yu picked up the photo, looked at the smiling face of the man in it, and suddenly took out his phone and quickly rummaged through the information.

"what are you doing?"

Comparing an electronic photo recorded from an old newspaper with the photo in his hand, Shi Yu's heart sank.

"I know who he is."

I was reading news records from previous years with Lu Zhizhi in the library. He accused the villagers of Fox Village of bringing gasoline barrels to the door of the local government and preparing to set themselves on fire in order to resist.

It didn't work out, did it?

The man who faked self-immolation was detained and spent half a year in jail. It was clearly recorded in the file.

It should have been out by now.

"I'm going to the Fox Village."

Shi Yu held the photo and hurriedly got into the car.

Fox Village is far away from the city, and it takes two or three hours to walk from the national highway.

It soon became dark after the sunset, and there were more overloaded trucks running around pulling goods on the road.

Shi Yu bought a cup of coffee on the road to refresh himself. The winding mountain road ahead was not easy to walk. Occasional rocks fell and large cars ran over it, and the ground was full of potholes.

The piping hot coffee he just bought poured out as the car swayed.

"Damn it."

He complained in a low voice, immediately put the cup into the groove, and took out the tissue next to it to wipe his clothes.

Just when he was distracted and turning a corner, the big car on the opposite side honked urgently. He immediately turned the steering wheel and narrowly missed the big car.

The car had just returned to the straight road, and before he could take a deep breath, a middle-aged man wearing a shirt stood in the middle of the road in front of the headlights, looking at him with a smile.

"Grass!"

Shi Yu's heart was lifted up and he vomited obscenities. He turned the steering wheel hard, and the tires made a screeching sound on the ground. The car turned sharply and hit the guardrail next to it. The front half of the wheel was suspended in the air, and the body was tilted. Two or three meters below it , is the field planted by farmers.

Thick fog came out of the car, and the airbag popped out. Shi Yu pushed the door open in a daze, stumbled out of the car and climbed to the ground, then got up on all fours. His forehead was in excruciating pain, leaving blood.

His vision wandered for a while, and finally he saw clearly the middle-aged man who was seeking death.

The man suppressed his smile and said regretfully: "Why don't you just hit me to death?"

"You're crazy! This is a highway!"

Shi Yu covered his forehead and walked over, and couldn't help but curse: "You shouldn't harm others on the road if you want to die."

"It's such a pity that the car didn't roll down." The man glanced at his precarious police car and sighed.

Shi Yu sensed something was wrong from these words. The other party seemed to be waiting for him on the road on purpose.

He suddenly remembered the last words of the woman in the red dress when she jumped from the building, and he quickened his pace to catch the man in front of him, "You follow me to the side of the road first, don't stand in the middle."

The man backed away, with a strange smile on his face, and asked: "Officer Shi, can you not demolish the Fox Temple?"

"Let's discuss it slowly." Shi Yu said urgently, "Come to the roadside."

"It seems like you have wasted another day. How long will it take to find out the truth? After all, people will die every day." The man smiled, with vicious eyes, "You will regret your choice, and you will spend the rest of your life repent."

The injured Shi Yu couldn't hold him back at all. He heard another vehicle coming up the curve behind him and roared: "Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

Shi Yu staggered over and tried to pull someone over, but the car coming up happened to be in a blind spot, and the truck driver couldn't react so quickly.

By the time he saw the police car hit the guardrail and was about to slow down, it was already too late.

Dazzling headlights and piercing sirens struck together.

Shi Yu had to take a step back to avoid the truck. The strong wind blew at the corner of his clothes. He watched in horror as the middle-aged man with a smile on his face was hit by the car. He was involved in the car, blood spattered everywhere, and his limbs were broken off.

The truck driver finally stopped, walked to the side of the road with weak hands and feet, and shouted with fear and trembling: "This has nothing to do with me. He is standing in the middle of the road like this. How could I stop the car so quickly! Mr. Police, You saw it!"

Lu Zhizhi had just finished class when he received a call from Yang Li.

When she heard that she had been in a car accident and was hospitalized, she had a concussion and a broken leg and was clamoring to be discharged, but no one could persuade her to do so. She had to put down the homework she was doing and correct it, grab her bag and rush to the hospital.

Ward.

Shi Yu was being forced to stay in the hospital bed by several colleagues. When Lu Zhizhi walked in, he happened to see the nurse inserting the needle for him again. There were many blood spots on the ground where he had torn out the needle forcibly.

She frowned and shouted: "Don't move Shi Yu."

Hearing her voice, everyone in the ward raised their heads to look at her. The man on the bed calmed down. His eyes were bloodshot and he said in a hoarse voice, "I'm going to be discharged from the hospital now. I don't have much time."

That's what he said, but he still waited for the nurse to insert the needle for him again. Lu Zhizhi sat down by the bed and said, "Let's talk."

Yang Li straightened up and asked two other colleagues to stand outside for a while.

After the ward door closed, she asked: "What are you talking about? Don't have much time?"

"There are some things hidden in Fox Village that I don't know about. If I can't find out in one day, someone will die in front of me. I don't want to see them die." Shi Yu's expression was flustered and frightened, and he completely lost his previous attitude towards everything. of calmness.
