Then, what did he just see?

Lu Xin squatted beside the dead body for a while, trying to figure out if the man would come back to life. This way, he could have a chat with the man and ask him why he was crying so hard. He could also ask if the man was Dead or Alive.

However, he saw that the cigarette he had inserted had slowly burned to the point where only a little spark was left, and there was still no movement.

Lu Xin sighed helplessly, thinking that he probably wouldn’t be able to survive.

Feeling a little dejected, Lu Xin gave up on the idea of pushing him to see if he would come back to life.

After all, he looked like a pitiful person who had already died under the bridge. It wouldn’t be good to be disrespectful to him.

He dragged his suitcase and slowly walked under the bridge.

He had originally planned to hide here for the night, but there was already a dead Vagabond here, so of course he had to find another place.

No normal person would be able to stay here for the night after seeing a corpse under the bridge, right?

As he walked out of the bridge, he felt that his surroundings had become quieter.

It wasn’t the kind of silence that was caused by the dispersing crowd, but the silence of the entire city, as if it was empty.

The buildings in the city were new, and the streetlights were bright, but Lu Xin felt as if the city was empty. He couldn’t hear a single sound. There was only the sound of him slowly dragging his spinning suitcase out from under the bridge.

His vision was getting used to the faint light of the street lamps outside.

But just as he was about to walk out of the bridge, he suddenly paused and lowered his head.

In front of him, from time to time, a pair of legs would appear, lightly swaying, and almost hit his head.

Just now, he had walked out with his head lowered, so he didn’t even notice when these legs had appeared.

Lu Xin furrowed his brows as he looked at the pair of legs that were hanging limply on the ground. His skin had turned slightly green, and he noticed that the person was wearing a pair of white leather shoes. Lu Xin slanted his body and walked around the legs. When he looked up, he saw that the person was hanging on the bridge.

She was a woman in her thirties. She tied the thin belt of her bag to the pillar of the bridge and then put herself on it.

The belt was very tight, and the woman looked very scary.

His face was ashen and had a strange purple tinge to it. His mouth was twisted into a painful shape and his tongue was stuck out of his mouth.

It hung on the bridge quietly and numbly.

“When did this come?”

Lu Xin raised his head to look at her with a frown.

When he went in just now, there wasn’t a single person hanging here.

He also believed that he could still hear people dying under the bridge.

Moreover, judging from the woman’s appearance, she didn’t seem to have just hung herself here.

While he was looking at the woman in confusion, the eyes under the woman’s messy hair suddenly opened.

She looked at Lu Xin quietly before she slowly disappeared.

“It’s even stranger …”

Lu Xin shook his head and looked at the railing on the bridge as if no one had ever been there.

He didn’t know how to explain this scene. After thinking for a while, he picked up his suitcase and walked up from the bottom of the bridge. He turned around to look at the city, the empty streets, the closed doors and windows of the shops on both sides, and the light of the street lamps on the roadside.

He could vaguely feel that something in this city had changed.

However, he couldn’t say exactly what it was.

The only thing that was clear was that in this bustling city that had fallen into a deep sleep, walking alone on the streets felt very lonely.

It wasn’t a good idea to stand by the street, so he dragged his suitcase and slowly walked forward.

The night wind whirled and blew past him.

The sound of the wheels under the suitcase rolling on the concrete road was very monotonous.

Lu Xin didn’t know where to go, so he dragged his suitcase and walked slowly.

While looking at the quiet city and the silent lights, he was also being looked at by the huge city and the bright lights.

Perhaps there were people in the buildings on both sides of the road, or even in the cars parked by the road.

However, because of his sleep, he had been separated from all these people.

He slowly walked for an unknown amount of time before he came to a crossroad and stopped.

It wasn’t because they had reached their destination, but because they had seen something strange not far ahead.

It was a black shadow in two, like a broken piece of wood, with a patch of bright red in the middle.

Lu Xin took a closer look and realized that it was a person lying on the ground. His body had been cut in half, and there was a deep depression in the middle. Red blood and crushed internal organs were flowing all over the ground, and a large part of it was stuck to the ground.

It seemed to be a person who had been in a car accident.

Lu Xin could easily guess how tragic the car accident had been.

When he stopped to look at the miserable man, the upper half of the man seemed to have noticed that someone was looking at him.

His head, which was pressed against the ground and had its back to Lu Xin, slowly and mechanically turned around.

His eyes and nostrils were completely red, and he stared at Lu Xin blankly.

“Pa pa pa …”

Suddenly, his arms slid across the ground and he crawled toward Lu Xin.

Perhaps it was because he had lost half of his body, but he climbed very quickly.

Lu Xin stood there quietly as he watched the man crawl toward him, dragging a long trail of red behind him.

However, just as he was about to reach his feet, his body became fainter and fainter, until he completely disappeared.

Looking up, the lower half of his body was gone, and the sticky red substance on the ground was also gone.

It was as if all of this was just an illusion.

“But if this is an illusion, isn’t there too many illusions here?”

Lu Xin mulled over the matter as he dragged his luggage along.

Gradually, he felt that there were more and more strange things in this city.

There was a car parked by the side of the road. Inside the car, there was a man with an ashen face. Inside the closed window, he was quietly holding a pot of charcoal.

There was a girl whose head had been smashed into pieces like a peanut. She held a shoe and cried quietly downstairs.

There was also a man with a knife in his stomach, holding his intestines with both hands, and helplessly walked past her.

How’s the city?

Lu Xin walked past the illusionary shadows and fell into deep thought.

He didn’t think that this was an illusion deliberately created by someone.

Because the stories and emotions of these people did not seem to be fabricated out of thin air …

So, this should be someone who once existed in this city, right?

They should have quietly disappeared from the city a long time ago, but now they were back to that tragic scene.

“Hu …”

Lu Xin glanced at his 200000 Yuan watch.

It was 12:58.

There was still half an hour to go before the fire seed issued the alarm, which was two hours later, which was half past one in the morning.

In other words, this strange scene wasn’t intentionally created by the fire seed.

Then, why did these people appear?

As Lu Xin pondered over this question, he came to a small river. There was a long bench in front of him, and an old man with a disheveled face was sitting on it. He was holding a round bottle in his hand and drinking from it. Lu Xin slowly sat down beside her.

He still hadn’t thought of where to hide, but he was a little tired from walking.

He sat down on the bench and saw the old man’s ashen face. He could smell the pungent liquid.

Lu Xin sighed and took out a cigarette.

The old man beside him fell silent. He slowly turned his stiff neck and looked at him with his eyes full of red spots.

Lu Xin lit a cigarette and scratched his head. He turned to look at the old man.

He first looked at the bottle and said in surprise, “”Hundred herb wither?”

The old man didn’t say a word and just looked at him in silence. His ashen face was cold and hard.

Lu Xin sighed sympathetically and continued, “”Are you unfilial?”

The old man was still silent, but the gloominess in his eyes seemed to be even more intense.

It was as if the frosty air from his body was about to be released and spread to Lu Xin’s body.

Lu Xin looked at her with even more sympathy and whispered, “”I heard that it’s very painful to drink this …”

The old man was silent. After a while, his figure slowly faded and disappeared from the bench.

Lu Xin finally stretched his body and placed his arms on the back of the bench. He let out a long sigh.

This bench finally belonged to him alone.

The fire seed was too sinister.

He had used a method to make the people in the city fall asleep on their own initiative, which made him, an outsider, suddenly not know what to do.

Anyway, she didn’t dare to sleep now.

She might as well just wait for him here …

With this thought in mind, Lu Xin began to anticipate the arrival of 1:30 am.

Lu Xin checked the time on his watch over and over again as he sat down on the bench patiently, waiting for the time to come.

Gradually, he felt his surroundings getting colder and colder, as if the temperature was being sucked away by some mysterious force.

The air became more and more moist, as if there was some unknown substance in it. It was wet and sticky, and there was a sweet taste.

This belonged to … This seemed to be blood?

Lu Xin raised his head warily and saw a faint mist rising from the Black River.

“Kada kada …”

The second hand ticked away bit by bit, and it was getting closer and closer to 1:30.

Lu Xin stared at the second hand for five full circles. Finally, the minute hand trembled slightly and pointed at the number “12.”

“Wuuu …”

Suddenly, an alarm went off, but it was much lower than the previous one.

At the same time, Lu Xin jerked his head up and heard the sound of heavy boots landing on the ground.

A heavy and heavy feeling filled the city.

Shua shua shua! Shua shua shua!

It was getting louder and heavier, mixed in the oppressive air, and quickly approaching from the edge of the city.
