Crane City, urban area.

August 21, night, 23:48.

He Shu yawned and stepped on the brakes.

The car was parked on the side of the road, the rear door was opened, and a young woman bent down and got in.

"Hello, the last number of your mobile phone is 4491, right?"

He checks the number with the customer as usual.

There was soothing music playing in the car, which made the sleepiness even stronger.

It was nearly midnight, and He Shu was planning to finish his day trip and go home, but he forgot the taxi app, and the order just popped up, and the customer seemed to have no intention of canceling, so he secretly told himself that this was the last trip.

When he fixed his eyes on the destination, most of his drowsiness flew away.

Hejialing Taohua Liushui Villa, Donglin Middle Road, Yuntai District.

Too far.

Although Yuntai District was placed under the ownership of the city in the 50s, it has always been a suburb among the suburbs, and the economy has not improved much. Except for the district government, which is still a little popular, most of the rest are wilderness and wild mountains. There is only one route to and from the urban area, and it stops at 07:30 at the latest.

That is to say, with the rise of tourism in recent years, there are many farmhouse fishing spots in Yuntai District, and it has become a resort for many citizens to drive to for vacation on weekends.

But now in the middle of the night, the other party was still alone, and it took at least an hour for this journey, and it was probably almost two o'clock when He Shu returned to the city.

He regretted that he hadn't turned off the order-taking software in time, while trying to get passengers to cancel their travel plans.

"Beauty, it's so late, and the Yuntai is far away, it's not safe for you to go there alone, if you're not in a hurry, why don't you leave tomorrow morning?"

As He Shu said, he naturally turned his head to look at the other party.

The passenger's hair is shawl, covering half of the cheeks, and the delicate silhouette can be vaguely seen under the dim light.

"My son is still waiting for me. If he doesn't see me tonight, he won't go to sleep. Today his grandparents and his father took him on vacation, and I have to work overtime here, so I can go to meet them now." Female passenger Youyou said, "Master, I will get off the car in a while and give you a tip, so you should work overtime."

Because of emotion and reason, everyone has talked about this, and He Shu can't push it any further.

"Then, please fasten your seat belts, and we're off."

The car starts from the urban area. At this point, there are fewer pedestrians and vehicles. The road is smooth and smooth, and there are few red lights.

Soothing music kept playing in the car. He Shu glanced back from the corner of her eye and found that the other party didn't lower her head to play with her mobile phone like other passengers got on the car, and she didn't look out from time to time because of lack of security. She just sat quietly like that. , quietly.

The street lamps were kept behind by the car, and they also lingered on her face one after another. From the hair down, there was always a large shadow, which made it difficult to see clearly.

He Shu suddenly felt that it was not a good thing for the music to be too soothing. He cut a channel casually, and the topic of the late-night emotional radio station jumped into his ears, and the host was having a heated debate with the callers.

The atmosphere was finally not so depressing, He Shu said heartily, long-distance driving late at night is easy to get tired, he tried to open the chatterbox to talk about something, but somehow the words came out of his mouth but couldn't come out, as if his brain was blocked by cotton balls.

He Shu frowned slightly, feeling like he was too tired.

He subconsciously touched the cigarette case next to him with one hand, and quickly retracted it.

The next moment, the female passenger in the back seat seemed to be complaining and talking to herself.

"I'm so tired..."

The sound is not loud, but it reaches the ears clearly.

He Shu had nothing to say: "Working overtime is quite tiring, what line of work do you do?"

The female passenger fell silent again.

He Shu also had guests who were more bizarre than this.

Being uncommunicative is probably just a matter of vigilance.

"Is there any music you like to listen to? Let me play it for you?"

The other party still didn't say anything, and looked out of the window with his head slightly sideways, covered with broken hair, as if he was taking a nap, silently telling He Shu to shut up.

He Shu had no choice but to shut up.

It just so happened that the host on the radio station told a story about a listener he met, saying that a girl met two men at the same time, one loved her very much and treated her well in everything, but she had no money, and the other had good financial conditions. But he was obviously not that enthusiastic about her, and he chose her only because the two had similar conditions, and they didn't have to make do with each other after they got married.

"At that time, the girl was still young, and she felt that people had no money to fight for, but she didn't feel that she couldn't make do with each other, so she chose the first one. The two finally got married, and life was good at the beginning. They both went to work during the day. Watching movies and playing games together at night, the little days were fun, and soon both families urged them to have a baby, and the two began to actively prepare for pregnancy. The next year when the baby was born, they found that there was something wrong with the baby. Slower than other children. As time goes by, this problem becomes more and more obvious, and the immunity is also low. It is easy to get sick every three days. The couple went to many hospitals for the child, but they could not find any solution. The savings were all spent. gone."

The host's voice is very magnetic, and he speaks eloquently, making people listen to him naturally, and even the excited audience just now became quiet.

"At this time, the two began to have differences. The man felt that if this continues, the family will have to sell the house, and life will be difficult. It is better to leave it like this, and he will treat the disease when he has money, but the woman disagrees. She thinks it will be fine. To borrow money, you must first cure the child's illness. The husband and wife quarreled and quarreled, and the man was overwhelmed. Finally, he thought of divorce. After he proposed the divorce, he would still pay the alimony and share the child's future. Tuition fees, but the extra medical expenses, he really can't afford it anymore. The woman also knows how the man's family is, and knows that he has tried his best. Heart. If you were her, you went back to the original starting point, and you also didn't know what you were about to face, what choice would you make?"

He Shu was a little hungry, and thought about ordering Malatang or a small hot pot when he came back, but also felt that it was quite hot today, and it was not suitable to eat a small hot pot, or it would be nice to order cold noodles with a big bone, which was not expensive at all. I was thinking about listening carefully to what the host said, the left ear came in and the right ear came out, and suddenly there was a sigh from the back seat——

"If a person chooses the wrong person, will he be gone forever?"

The signal of the radio station was not good, and there was a rustling noise after the host finished speaking, and he couldn't hear what the audience answered. The person in the back seat suddenly made a sound, which really shocked He Shu, and the soul who was flying out of the blue sky was forcibly pulled back .

"No way, life is inherently faced with many choices, if you make a wrong choice, just take another path."

He comforted casually, carelessly.

"Who has it easy in this world? I have to drive here in the middle of the night to earn money to support my family. You are about to have a family reunion and have fun for a few days. Many stories on these late-night radio stations are made up. Just listen to it, you don’t need to be serious.”

After finishing speaking, He Shu reached out and turned off the radio.

The female passenger in the back seat fell silent again, wondering if he had listened to his words.

He felt that the temperature of the air conditioner was a bit low, and he reached out to increase it, but accidentally touched the screen of the phone, which instantly lit up, showing the time.

August 22, 28:[-].

The seventh month of the lunar calendar... the fifteenth?

He Shu was agitated, thinking to himself that it's no wonder he always felt something was wrong these days, it turned out that he had missed this.

Looking at the back seat, although the other party still didn't make a sound, they couldn't tell anything unusual.

Could it be that I am too sensitive?

While thinking wildly, he glanced from the mirror to the back seat.

That shadow lingered, firmly stuck to the top of her head, from top to bottom, integrated into one, at first glance it seemed that there was a shadow sticking behind her.

She seemed to be aware of He Shu's gaze, and when she raised her eyes, there was a faint blue light in her eyes.

For a moment, He Shu couldn't tell whether it was the reflection of the street lamp outside the window or the light from the other person's eyes.

The two looked at each other through the mirror for a moment. He Shu's eyes were not smiling, but he had peach blossoms in his eyes. His slovenliness did not make people feel decadent, but inexplicably attracted the attention. There were even female passengers who had the courage to strike up a conversation and add WeChat.

But at this time, the woman in the back seat didn't seem to be distracted, and her silent gaze was about to suck He Shu in, and she fell into a bottomless black hole of quicksand, endless and beyond redemption.

The heartbeat was so violent that it seemed to rush out of her throat. He Shu's hand unconsciously fumbled on the screen of the mobile phone, and pressed the music software player.

"Arise, hungry and cold slaves! Arise, suffering people all over the world! My blood is boiling, and I will fight for the truth!"

After regaining consciousness, He Shu's mouth twitched.

Female Passenger: ...

The stagnant coldness disappeared in an instant, and everything seemed to be his illusion.

He Shu made mistakes, and even though the high-spirited melody of "The Internationale" echoed in the car, he began to feel that he was not an online car-hailing driver, but was about to conquer the universe in a rocket.

When the navigation showed that she was about to arrive at her destination, the female passenger's mobile phone rang, and the voice of her conversation with her husband came over. The other end of the phone was vaguely asking why she hadn't arrived yet, and the slightly hoarse and tired voice replied that she was still in the car. Come on, it will be here soon, let the husband put the child to bed first.

He Shu's raised heart also slowly let go, and his brows loosened.

Sure enough, he was too sensitive.

After all, in the seventh month of the lunar calendar, people with low luck have a bit of yin around them, and it is not a good thing to be suspicious at every turn.

My mind was running wild, and the car finally arrived at its destination.

The huge road sign of Taohua Liushui Villa came into view, and the resort villa behind the trees could be vaguely seen. The buildings were looming in the night. He Shu looked out through the car window. Several street lamps were drowsy, and the brightest light source nearby turned out to be his own. headlights.

Under one of the lights, the waiting man seemed to recognize the license plate, stepped forward to wave to them, and then came to help his wife open the door.

"Don't work overtime so late next time, my son wants to see you all day long!"

He babbled and complained, while taking the bag from his wife, like countless ordinary families, living on food and clothing, worrying about ordinary troubles.

"I can't help it. The leader temporarily asked me to work overtime. Fortunately, tomorrow is the weekend!"

Facing her husband, the female passenger also talked more, not as silent and weird as in the carriage.

"Master, you've worked hard. I promised you a tip just now. Add a WeChat account and I'll transfer the money to you later."

Finally finished the last order, He Shu was relieved, and did not turn back in a hurry, but turned on his mobile phone. As expected, his friend Lin Xiaopang sent a message asking him to go to Chengdong Snack Street for a barbecue.

He Shu thought about his words and was about to type a reply, but he raised his head inadvertently, but his eyes suddenly froze.

The couple, the passengers, drifted away. Seeing that they were approaching the corner and were about to leave their line of sight, the two street lights above their heads were brighter, shining brightly on the ground, clearly reflecting the elongated shadows of the two of them.

Ok?

He Shu stared blankly at only one shadow on the ground.

the woman—

No shadow?

Suspecting that something was wrong with his eyes, he suddenly closed them and opened them again.

At this moment, a black shadow sprang out from the nearby bushes, quickly flew towards the couple, stuck firmly to the woman's feet with lightning speed, and quickly elongated, turning into the natural shadow of the other party, making up for the flaws intact .

As if aware of He Shu's gaze, the female passenger turned her head slightly to the side, glanced out of the corner of her eye, and raised a strange arc at the corner of her mouth.

He Shu couldn't even be sure if the other party really smiled, or if it was just his own illusion.

He only felt a chill from the bottom to the top of his back, and then goose bumps spread all over his body!

He Shu turned on the phone and looked for the WeChat account that he had just added as a friend, but found that he couldn't find it.

Looking up again, the figures of the couple had disappeared from sight.

He intuited that if he pursued like this, he should encounter things far beyond his imagination, and the peaceful life he finally got would be broken.

However, that man was obviously an ordinary person.

He Shu hesitated for a few seconds between being nosy and turning around and leaving, He Shu cursed coldly, got out of the car, closed the door behind his back and ran to the resort ahead!

The faint yellow street lights are almost equal to none, and the stone monuments of the holiday villa standing in the forest have the illusion of a tombstone.

He Shu took a quick glance, and from the corner of his eye, he saw the peach character in the four characters "Peach Blossom and Flowing Water" carved across the stone tablet was slightly red, as if there was blood.

He didn't have time to think about it, and followed the path in front of him to catch up, only to see that the two people who should have walked a long way stopped not far away, and the woman pressed the man against the tree, like a couple kissing.

The two are husband and wife, and it's normal to be intimate, but the woman was anxious to come over to see her son when she took a taxi just now, and now that her son hasn't seen her, is she in the mood to flirt with her husband?

"stop!"

He Shu let out a low cry, and without even thinking about it, he tore off the pendant from his neck and threw it at the woman!

The pendant hit the woman's body with a red light flashing, the other party screamed and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The man who was still hugging her just now was sticking to the tree trunk, motionless, looking up at the sky, describing it strangely.

He Shuxin said that he was frightened by a ghost, and stepped forward to pat him on the shoulder.

"Hey wake up!"

In the next second, the flesh touched by the hand became hard and rough.

The lamps and shadows are scattered and flickering, where is there any man, who is clearly a piece of dead wood? !

Jumped? !

This thought flashed by, and He Shu didn't even have time to withdraw his hands, the dark wind came from behind, and the cloak seemed to cover his back.

He Shu found that he couldn't move anymore, but his whole body perception became extremely sharp.

Yinfeng leaned close to his body, wandering gently beside his ear, like a woman sighing softly.

"Are you looking for me?"

It was the female passenger's voice!

He Shuhan's hair stood on end!

This may be a well-designed trap, or it may be that the other party saw him make a move to sabotage the impromptu intention, but he was indeed careless, and the pendant was thrown not far away, otherwise, the other party would not be able to get close to him.

The fingers can still move slightly, but it is useless, even if you want to make a seal, the cold touch slides from the sticky side of the ear to the corner of the mouth, like savoring delicious food, without rush or slowness.

Dare to meet or a pervert?

Just as He Shu was considering whether to bite the tip of his tongue and spray blood on her face, he heard a bird cry.

croak.

croak.

Why is there such an unpleasant bird call, it's almost like the old bustard shouting to the guests to come quickly.

I'm afraid this isn't a frog that was reincarnated as a bird, right?

Messy thoughts flitted through my mind, and a pair of blood-red eyes suddenly approached!

He Shu clearly saw tens of thousands of corpses rushing towards him with their teeth and claws in the blood, eager to devour blood and flesh, peeling and tearing apart the bones, the nerves in his body were beating violently, but his limbs were completely out of control, and he was about to be completely crushed. control--
