Around

The sun's rays made the surrounding scenery gradually clear, and the sound of dogs barking and cicadas chirping came to the ears from a distance, and when Shentucheng came to his senses, Fu Ding had disappeared.

"He's gone." Gu Panhao said softly.

In front of the two of them was an old tree with fallen leaves all over the ground, leaving only bare branches, which looked extraordinarily lonely in the morning halo.

On the dead branch, the white paper lantern was shaking back and forth, Gu Panhao stepped forward, took it down, and blew out the candle inside. "It's time to rest..." he said.

"Do you really not remember?" Shen Tucheng asked behind him.

Gu Pan shook his head.

Shen Tucheng didn't look disappointed, he just said: "I will tell you slowly."

The two of them worked together to straighten the tree trunk that was about to fall, and filled the soil. At this time, the sun was shining.

The huge mouse came out of the weeds, glanced at the two of them, and fled quickly.Gu Panhao followed the direction in which the mouse came out, and his face suddenly changed——

Lu Zhonghui!

He was lying in the grass at half a person's height, his exposed skin was already blue-gray, and one arm was gnawed to pieces.

Gu Panhao took a deep breath and subconsciously looked towards Shentu City.And Shentu City has also found Lu Zhonghui's body.Gu Pan turned his eyes away, unwilling to see the grief on Shen Tucheng's face. In his subconscious mind, this person would not be hurt.He is always strong and domineering, and he will go forward bravely when he has identified a goal. Whether he earns or grabs, he can always get what he wants.The sadness in Shentucheng's eyes was something that Gu Panhao had never seen before. Even though it was only a spirit body, he still felt a pain in his chest.Looking at Shentu City like this, he couldn't help thinking, when he died, did Fu Sheng... also look at him with this expression?

At this time, a pair of hands surrounded Gu Panhao from behind.Shen Tucheng buried his head in his neck, and said wearily and sadly: "It hurts so much." At that time, I watched you swallow your breath in my arms like this, almost taking all my breath away. . "I remember everything between us, but this one, I don't remember." Only this one, only the scene when you died, I have no memory at all.Since your death, my memory has been blank. I think it must be because I died with you.

Gu Panhao folded his hands on Shentucheng's and did not speak.This is the first time that Shentucheng has made such intimate movements towards him...to Lian Qiaoye's body.Perhaps the pain in his heart has reached the point where Shentucheng can't bear it, one after another, the self-blame and sadness brought to Shentucheng by the death of his friends has reached the point where this always resolute man needs him to comfort him.Thinking of this, Gu Panhao sighed, turned around and hugged Shentucheng, and gently stroked Shentucheng's back with both hands.He felt Lian Qiaoye's heart beating wildly in his body, and a sweet taste poured into his heart, and he knew that it was Lian Qiaoye's love and satisfaction.

After a while, maybe the silent comfort he gave had an effect, when Shentucheng straightened up again, his eyes were clear again.The two looked at each other and walked towards the grass tacitly.It wasn't until they got closer that they could see clearly that Lu Zhonghui's body was much more than what he had just seen—half of his body was buried in the soil, and the white maggots writhed in the shape of lumps, and there was no complete piece of flesh.

After being baptized by the animal carcasses in a bathtub in Guo Kai's house and the carrion wall overnight, Shen Tucheng no longer felt sick at all seeing this scene.He carefully dug up the soil covering Lu Zhonghui's body, because he was still full of hostility, the maggots dodged away as soon as they touched his fingers.

Shentucheng didn't want Lu Zhonghui's body to be damaged any more, so he was extremely careful in his movements - when he completely dug Lu Zhonghui out, it was already more than an hour later.Shen Tucheng took off his coat and wrapped it around Lu Zhonghui's body. He was thinking about what to do when he heard a burst of music suddenly coming from Lu Zhonghui's body.

The creepy soundtrack of "Midnight Ring" reverberated in the empty cemetery for a moment, and Shen Tucheng was so excited that he quickly took out his mobile phone from Lu Zhonghui's pocket.

"Hey?"

"Thank God, you finally answered the phone." To his surprise, it was Liu Xia's voice that came through the phone, "I called you to remind you to turn off the phone, and it happened that I didn't bring my phone, so I was so anxious... I had no choice but to try to hit Lu Zhonghui, I didn't expect..."

Shen Tucheng recovered from Liu Xia's eager tone, looked down at Lu Zhonghui's horrific corpse, and said, "He's dead."

Liu Xia paused: "Huh?"

"Lu Zi, he's dead."

"How come..." Liu Xia yelled on the other end of the phone, "Didn't you already find him?!"

Shentucheng closed his eyes and couldn't bear to look any further, and said in a deep voice, "...we are late."

"Where's the computer?" Liu Xia asked eagerly, "Where is the computer?" Several of the deceased in the male dormitory died next to the computer, so since Lu Zhonghui is dead, there must be a computer by his side.And what was displayed on that computer was the next person to die!

Shen Tucheng was taken aback when he heard the words, but saw that Gu Panhao had already begun to search for the computer with important clues.

On the other side, the person answering the phone has been replaced by Gao Jie: "I have already sent someone there, and I will come back as soon as I find it. We can't afford to delay for a second... Lu Zhonghui's place, the people I sent will handle it properly. "

After the brief arrangement, Gao Jie asked about the exact location of the two, and said that his people would be able to find them within an hour.Shen Tucheng nodded, but the first thing he did after hanging up the phone was to pull Gu Panhao aside.Just like Gu Panhao did to him the night before, Shentucheng took Gu Panhao's hand and carefully wiped off the dirt on it: "Stand still, I'll look for it."

Gu Panhao nodded and didn't say much.He knew Shen Tucheng well, and he knew that once this person made a decision, he would rarely change it.Instead of spending time arguing with him at this time, it's better to stay aside obediently and not distract him.

After roughly confirming the location, Shen Tucheng lay down on the ground and searched inch by inch without caring about getting dirty.About half an hour later, he dug up a laptop not far from where he found Lu Zhonghui.

At this time, the people sent by Gao Jie also rushed to the scene.This group of people were all wearing casual clothes, but Shentucheng could clearly see that they were different from the lazy policemen he usually saw in the police station.The plainclothes people dispersed in a well-trained manner, and only two of them stayed where they were, presumably to pick up someone.Gu Panhao asked one of them to take a bottle of mineral water, then took Shentucheng away and washed his hands, and then walked slowly to the place where the computer was dug out just now——Shentucheng couldn't see it, but he could see it clearly. In the meter-wide hole, a thin wisp of red smoke was coming out.

Gu Pan laughed amusedly, and said softly to the dark hole, "Don't provoke him."

That Hongyan seemed to be quite afraid of him, and he didn't move for a while.Gu Panhao smiled again, and said: "Lu Zhonghui is dead, and your resentment should be resolved..." He was right, that Hongyan was a ghost, although he didn't know who it was, he had a similar relationship with Lu Zhonghui. What grievances, but I know that Lu Zhonghui died because of it.It has grievances against Lu Zhonghui, and Lu Zhonghui is dead, now that its revenge has been avenged, it should dissipate on its own.

What he expected was right, the Red Mist Specter was Xiaomi back then.She was abandoned by Lu Zhonghui, the fetus was not protected, and she died in a random grave in the end.On the day Lu Zhonghui came back, she happened to borrow Fu Ding's power to scare Lu Zhonghui to death.

But what about after revenge?

After hearing Gu Panhao's words, the red smoke was silent for a while, and finally slowly gathered into a circle.

Papa, a drop of blood-red tears fell into the soil.

Gu Pan thought for a while, and was about to seal the hole, but was pulled up. "Running around again." Shen Tucheng frowned and complained.Gu Panhao patted the increasingly domineering person, and said with a smile, "Go back."

……

A few hours later, Shentucheng and Gu Panhao returned to City Z.As soon as the car stopped at the gate of the police station, Liu Xia opened the door and pulled the two of them eagerly.Could it be that seeing Liu Xia, who has always been careless, getting angry in a hurry, Shen Tucheng's heart tightened, and another bad premonition came out.

Liu Xia led the two of them to the locked room last time, where Gao Jie was already waiting.

"How is it?" Before the two sat down, Gao Jie asked.

Shen Tucheng briefly explained the process of meeting Fu Ding and discovering Lu Zhonghui, and asked, "Where's Guo Kai?"

Liu Xia sat down on the chair with her head down in frustration: "We lost track."

"En?" Gu Pan looked up at him in surprise—not to mention Gao Jie, he more or less knew how good Liu Xia was.It stands to reason that Guo Kai has not finished eating, even if the speed is extremely fast, it will not last long.

"He..." Liu Xia took a good look at Gu Pan, then said hesitantly, "Disappeared."

"Disappeared?" Shen Tucheng vaguely blocked Liu Xia's sight, and asked, "How to disappear?"

Gao Jie replied, "Disappear out of thin air."

Liu Xia nodded and said, "We chased him out of the residential area, and his speed was getting slower and slower. Seeing that we were about to catch him, he just disappeared!" He thumped his thigh hard as he said.

Gu Pan couldn't speak, and asked Gao Jie with his eyes when Shentucheng and Liu Xia couldn't see it—it was natural that Liu Xia didn't know, but Gao Jie shouldn't know.

However, to his surprise, Gao Jie also shook his head.

Gu Pan frowned slightly, and was about to ask carefully when Liu Xia's cell phone rang.

Liu Xia quickly picked it up, said a few words, closed the phone, and said solemnly to the three of them, "The results over there are out. On Lu Zhonghui's computer, the last person to contact was Wu Ming."
