I am not human

"No, it's not... There must be something wrong, Mr. Tao Quan is Xiaofeng's..." adoptive father.

Liao Qingshu defended Tao Quan subconsciously, and the words of Jiufang Ziyan suddenly echoed in her mind - "If you don't eat anything, it's just that you are not hungry enough".

He slowly turned his head to look at Tao Quan beside him. The uncle with his feet up was enjoying the last bit of coke with his eyes closed.After a while of "gurgling", he hiccupped contentedly, put the empty coke cup aside, and when he opened his eyes again, his long and narrow eyes were already blood red.

"I'm said to be like a dog, but I think you exorcists are like that. Your nose is better than anyone else's, and once you smell something, you run faster than anyone else."

"Thanks for the compliment, it's a great honor." The gray-haired man accepted Tao Quan's taunt indifferently, and half-drawn the long sword from its sheath again, "But you missed one thing—that is, once we determine the target , you will bite to death until you bite to death.”

"This is really a headache." Tao Quan shook his head and chuckled, suddenly raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and the whole theater was plunged into darkness.

Liao Qingshu was startled.After waiting for a while, when the theater was lit up again, he was even more horrified—the originally empty theater was filled with people in an instant!

Except for his right side - the position that originally belonged to Tao Quan has been vacated.

Liao Qingshu looked towards the stage again, and the man with long gray hair had disappeared.The cracked TV was blocked by a curtain.Under Liao Qingshu's probing eyes, the heavy curtain slowly opened, but the weird TV was replaced by a girl wearing a shining white gauze dress, and a melodious and affectionate singing came out of the girl's mouth: "Think of me, think of me fondly, when we've said goodbye... ..."

Liao Qingshu's eyes widened suddenly.This... looks like a scene from The Phantom of the Opera, right?

The singing is like water, slowly washing the entire theater, the modern atmosphere gradually fades, and the classical and exquisite decoration is presented in front of the eyes, resplendent and magnificent, and the huge chandelier above the head is extremely gorgeous.The surrounding spectators originally only had blurred faces, but now they became clear. The gentleman's attire, gorgeous dress, and elegant manners, sitting among them, Liao Qingshu, who was still wearing a hoodie and jeans, looked like an alien.

He suddenly got up, staggered and ran towards the door, but ran into the backstage somehow.The entertainers in strange costumes were preparing to talk and laugh on their own, as if they hadn't seen him, but Liao Qingshu couldn't laugh at all.

That Tao Quan!How did he change his dreams!

Liao Qingshu ran around the background in a panic, but couldn't get out no matter what.I was in a state of desperation, when I suddenly heard the sound of "Didi" coming from my pocket, which seemed loud and abrupt like a rooster crowing in the long night.All voices and movements stopped in an instant, and all the artists cast their gazes on Liao Qingshu, making his whole body stiff.Just a moment ago, he was still a little transparent that no one could see, but at this moment, he seemed to be stripped naked under the eyes of everyone.

The sound of "Didi" in his pocket continued unrelentingly. Liao Qingshu tremblingly reached into his pocket and took out the keyboard phone - this is the special consultation phone number for the technical support department that he happened to draw before. Apart from the customer service lady, the only one who came to contact me was Jiufang Ziyan, a part-time human service worker.

...Don't ask him why the phone still works in his dream, he understands that in this world, nothing is impossible except for him to have a baby.

"……Hey?"

"Where the hell did you go!" Jiufang Ziyan's angry voice came from the mobile phone, "Xiao Lin and I have been waiting here for a long time without even seeing half of the figure! It's not that you make someone up! Personally, how long have you been?"

"Well, Jiufang..." Liao Qingshu listened to him without saying a word, and then said weakly after he finished spraying, "Mr. Tao Quan... ran away."

"...What did you say? Say it again?"

Liao Qingshu briefly recounted the situation to him, Jiufang Ziyan scolded him again, and then said: "Don't worry about anything else, just wait, I'll come to you first."

"Oh well."

"Do you still have your ruby? Use the skill I taught you last time to create an enchantment, and try to protect yourself as much as possible."

"It's not necessary, is it? I don't seem to have mixed anything into my dream..." Liao Qingshu stopped talking in the middle of her words, and turned her head as if observing something.

Behind suspended figures, between cluttered props, in shadowed corners.Red or green eyes quietly emerged, like pairs of lit lamps.

Liao Qingshu took a step back and changed her words: "Please hurry up."

After speaking, he put the special machine into his pocket, then took out the small round ruby, and held it tightly in his palm.

Time was still frozen, and in the silence, the panting of the beast became more and more obvious.

Liao Qingshu was confronting the beasts who were staring at him, and at the same time, he put his hands behind his back and secretly formed a barrier.Neither of them made any big moves, as if the freezing had also spread to their bodies.

Until a black figure couldn't hold back and rushed out, roaring rolling in its throat.

Liao Qingshu screamed in fright, turned around and ran, and several black shadows jumped out of the shadows, chasing after him.The play button seemed to be pressed again for the paused scene, and the artists in the background were joking and getting ready again, ignoring the monsters that shuttled between them.The singing on the stage also sounded again, and the melodious and affectionate "Thinkofme" became the background music of this chase.

Liao Qingshu hurriedly pushed and shoved the person in front of her, struggling to squeeze through the crowded aisle, apologizing indiscriminately while squeezing.A strange bird with four wings and three legs was hovering above his head, catching him time and time again, but was blocked by the red film-like barrier again and again, with venomous eyes shooting out of its six eyes. look.When Liao Qingshu was proud of his obvious progress in the enchantment, there was a "sneer", someone grabbed a forcefully on the enchantment and made a long cut.

Liao Qingshu was stunned for a moment, and then squeezed forward even more desperately, while the monsters seemed to have seen the dawn, and rushed forward one by one.The enchantment became more and more fragile under the continuous siege. Liao Qingshu nervously fought with his hands while running, trying to build another enchantment, but he couldn't make it as if his skills were cooling down, even though he was so anxious that he was sweating .

"Thinkofme" is coming to an end, and at the end is a beautiful coloratura, the high-pitched female voice rises and falls in a wide range, just like Liao Qingshu's current situation.Until the end, the voice was pulled to the highest point, all the laid-out emotions erupted at this moment, and Liao Qingshu's enchantment was completely broken at the same time——

"--boom!"

A golden light brushed past Liao Qingshu's side and hit the pursuers behind him. Jiufang Ziyan appeared at the end of the aisle with a small light cannon. Liao Qingshu missed the momentum and ran straight into his arms.

Jiufang Ziyan paused for a moment, then took him out and put him aside as if he was bored, and continued to attack.The golden balls of light struck one after another, forcing the monsters in the aisle back again and again.However, after only a few cannon shots, the golden light on the top of the small light cannon dimmed, and the follow-up was weak.

Liao Qingshu looked at Jiufang Ziyan's slightly trembling right hand, and knew that his spiritual power was no longer enough to power the small light cannon.Just as he was anxious, he suddenly saw a few silver lights flashing by, and vaguely heard the sound of a sharp weapon piercing through the air. When he realized it, the monster in front of him had already collapsed.

"Ex-chief, what are you trying to do with that toy?" Behind the monsters on the ground, the man with long gray hair walked out slowly, the long sword in his hand was dripping with blood, light blue Looking at Jiufang Ziyan mockingly, "In my impression, you don't even bother to hold a gun. Since when did you start relying on this kind of toy that isn't even a 'weapon'?"

He walked up to Jiufang Ziyan and smiled appropriately: "However, even if it is a toy, please use it carefully. After all, if you only rely on one eye, the accuracy of the head may be a big problem."

Seeing his sarcastic smile, Liao Qingshu suddenly felt a little annoyed.It's true that Jiufang Ziyan's personality is not likable, but it's too much to laugh at his wounds face to face like this!

He rolled up his sleeves, and was about to say a few words for Jiufang Ziyan, when Jiufang Ziyan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

He quickly stuffed the small light cannon into Liao Qingshu's arms, and said seriously: "This toy belongs to him. I just didn't have a weapon with me, so I just borrowed it to use it. This kind of ugly and less lethal thing, Who would appreciate it."

"..." Liao Qingshu held the small light cannon, and decided to think about how to use it to hit Jiufang Ziyan on the head.

The gray-haired man smiled understandingly, with an expression of "I know you are trying to be brave, but I don't want to expose you for being so pitiful", he turned his head and said to Liao Qingshu, "Zheyi below, the School of Everything drives Super exorcist from the Ministry of Magic, this is the first time we meet, please give me your advice."

"Uh, hello, I'm Liao Qingshu..."

"I know you." Fang Zheyi calmly interrupted Liao Qingshu, "Liao Qingshu, the only person in this isolation class who insists on staying in the other world. Your name has been registered on the Exorcist Department's focus list. Once you become a demon, we will kill you without hesitation."

Liao Qingshu concluded: "Ah, this..."

"I lied to you." Fang Zheyi said with a smile, "I'm still willing to negotiate with some sense of humor... After all, we still have to leave the scene."

Thank you so much.

"Hey!" Jiufang Ziyan said angrily, "Are you busy talking so much nonsense? And what's with your old man's hair? It's so ugly."

"This is dyed according to the teacher's hair color. I personally think it's pretty good." Fang Zheyi was so calm that he didn't hear Jiufang Ziyan's comment, and there was a hint of complacency in his tone, "Ah, yes, when it comes to Teacher... the former chief probably didn't know about it? Teacher Qiao is now the chief of the Exorcism Department, thanks to the former chief."

He said "former chief" one by one, and every time he called out, Jiufang Ziyan's face became gloomy.Liao Qingshu glanced at him worriedly, then turned to Fang Zheyi and asked, "Excuse me, may I ask, what is the story about Tao Quan killing Tao Feng?"

"Oh, that's right. Just ten minutes ago, the Exorcist Department suddenly received an anonymous call to the police, saying that a monster had injured a human girl. The location and time were very detailed. We sent someone there immediately At the scene, it turned out that Xiao Tao Feng was found..."

"Corpse?" Liao Qingshu answered subconsciously.

"No, to be precise, it should be the body." Fang Zheyi said, walked behind the two of them, looking at the end of the aisle thoughtfully.Jiufang Ziyan said: "It means that she didn't die, but her soul was taken away, right?"

"Well, as expected of the former chief, the understanding is different." Fang Zheyi deliberately bit the word "predecessor", making Jiufang Ziyan's face darker with anger.Holding a long sword and gesturing on the wall, he said unhurriedly, "But according to the rules of the Exorcist Department, soul taking and murder are equally felony..."

The tip of the sword swiped across a wall, and a scratch immediately appeared on the wall. He whispered "Break", and the scratch quickly turned into a deep crack, and spread out in all directions.

The space covered with cracks soon began to disintegrate, and the bodies of the three fell uncontrollably. After a short period of weightlessness, they immediately stepped on the solid ground.Fang Zheyi put the sword back into its sheath, looked not far away, and then finished the last sentence leisurely: "...this crime is enough for him to die ten thousand times."

Liao Qingshu followed his gaze and looked forward, only to see a blue mastiff-like monster surrounded by a group of dark smoky gray uniforms on the bare hillside, blood red eyes full of murderous intent.
