My daily mountain driving, I met a fox at the beginning and got married

The entire town believed that the vengeful spirits of the twins had returned to claim their lives, that the twins had become demons, and that they would only stop their revenge by completely destroying the village.

Remembering what Eliza had said before, that the town's law enforcement officers knew about the matter but did nothing about it, and that he had seen a security guard in the guard booth earlier... he should also be considered a law enforcement officer in the town, right?
Did that guy participate in the abuse of the twins? If so, he's definitely going to die.

Just as he expected, when they arrived, the security guard in the guard booth had already turned into a skeleton!
The entire town is now deserted; there isn't a single local resident or living person left.

The little boy didn't die, but he was terrified. He grabbed Zhang Hao's hand and asked, "Big brother, will I... will I be killed too?"

Zhang Hao patted his head and patiently replied, "Don't worry, it shouldn't happen."

He had asked the little boy before, and the boy could very confidently assure him that he had not participated in the abuse of the twins.

Since you weren't involved and weren't aware of it at the beginning, there's nothing to worry about.

Based on previous events, this mastermind doesn't seem to be the kind of person who acts irrationally.

"But I'm so scared... I don't have a mom or dad anymore, I don't have any relatives left... What should I do next?"

In the days following the loss of his loved ones, the little boy had come to understand what death meant and was acutely aware of the predicament he was now facing.

"Next, I will send you to a local orphanage. You will live there. There shouldn't be any problems. Orphanages in the West have always had good welfare benefits."

The little boy shook his head in terror: "No, no, no, I don't want to go to the orphanage!"

He pleaded pitifully, "Big brother, please adopt me, okay? You've already adopted this young lady, it wouldn't hurt to adopt me too, please..."

Zhang Hao firmly rejected his request.

Given his current status, adopting a child would mean passing on his skills.

This was also agreed upon when he signed the contract with the underworld, and both parties reached a consensus that the little boy did not have this talent, so he was very sorry.

"I can't adopt you, so live a good life in the orphanage."

Although Zhang Hao appeared very gentle, he had actually made up his mind and would not change it.

The little boy's eyes showed obvious sadness, tears welled up, and he stared at him pitifully without saying a word.

"Don't play the victim here. I know you're smart. Even in an orphanage, you'd definitely thrive," Little Koi said dismissively, rolling her eyes.

Judging from his previous actions, this child is so young yet already able to consider so many things, which shows that he is actually very shrewd. Generally, shrewd people can live a good life.

The little boy lowered his head, no longer daring to try any clever tricks.

They need to find their former companions now, and they don't have time to waste here.

After searching the town, Zhang Hao confirmed that there were no traces of other demons or monsters, meaning that staying there would be pointless.

The two of them decided to leave.

Before leaving, we need to take care of the remaining issues in this town.

Having learned from his previous experience of doing good deeds only to be smeared and slandered by Western media, he will no longer be foolish enough to report the situation directly to the relevant authorities.

Zhang Hao chose to be more subtle. Once he was certain that the fog over the town had lifted and everything had returned to normal, he finally decided to spread the word about what had happened here through someone else.

Charla is an adventurous person. He grew up playing all sorts of pranks, climbing trees, fishing in rivers, and playing all kinds of tricks. Now he wants to pursue something more exciting.

He had heard that this place was haunted, and when he saw the news online, he was initially very dismissive.

What era are we living in? Ghost stories still exist? And people actually believe them? Have those people never been to school?

Later, he unexpectedly saw a video of a street experiencing a zombie outbreak. Although the video was quickly deleted by the relevant authorities, he had already watched the whole thing and was deeply shocked.

From that moment on, Charla believed that ghosts really existed in the world.

Even if there are no ghosts, there are definitely supernatural people or things.

He rushed over immediately after receiving news of the haunting.

He took out his phone and started taking selfies. Facing the camera, Charla showed his very handsome face: "Hello everyone! Today I'm going to take you to see the haunted town that's been all over the internet lately! There were rumors online that a certain town was experiencing paranormal events, and many streamers went to investigate, but all of them encountered various accidents."

Charla faced the camera, deliberately making his expression look gloomy and terrifying: "Just like that internet celebrity who loved to drink milk, after she came here to do a live broadcast, she went back and within two or three days, she accidentally fell from the 7th floor of an apartment building and died, turning into a pile of minced meat!"

"And then there was the college student new streamer who came here to broadcast, and not long after, he got into a car accident on his way home, and his head was crushed!"

"There's another one. Apparently, after going back and having a meal, he accidentally contracted some kind of terrible parasite. Within just one week, the parasite had reached his brainstem, and he died despite all efforts to save him..."

Numerous examples of death were listed, which frightened the viewers in the live stream.

However, as Charla watched the barrage of fear-filled comments flooding the live stream, a smug smile spread across his face.

And that's how he livened up the atmosphere in the live stream!

He walked forward, chatting with the viewers in the live stream as he went, while also introducing the scenery on both sides.

The scenery on both sides is very beautiful, but this beautiful scenery is also frightening.

The audience found that while the scenery was beautiful, it was unusually quiet.

Charla noticed this too. He swallowed hard, feeling both scared and excited.

Knowing that a livestreamer had come by, Zhang Hao quietly left with Little Koi.

He was originally thinking of finding someone online to help him expose the story, or simply going to Fedor to expose the matter, but who knew that this guy would show up before he could take action.

Zhang Hao is ready and can leave at any time.

At the gate, the little boy clung tightly to his arm.

"Big brother, are you really leaving? Can't you stay? I'm so scared to be alone..." Although Zhang Hao felt sorry for him, he still firmly pulled his hand away.

"I've already taught you how to handle this situation and what to say. You don't need to test me like this anymore. We're not meant to be."

After saying that, he left resolutely, giving the other party no chance to stop him.

He didn't leave step by step; instead, he vanished into thin air right in front of the little boy.

It turns out that Zhang Hao used magic to leave.

Not long after Zhang Hao left using magic, Charla arrived at the town entrance with a live stream.

By this time, the white fog over the town had completely dissipated, and normally, the place should no longer be as eerie and terrifying as before.

However, the town in front of me was unusually quiet, a silence that sent chills down my spine.

As soon as Charla arrived at the entrance to the town, he couldn't help but have the urge to escape.

His subconscious kept reminding him that something strange was definitely hidden in this town.

The viewers in the live stream also saw that the entire town was completely silent, without a single sound. However, by this time, the viewers' emotions had been fully aroused; the more exciting and eerie it was, the more engrossed they became. So, everyone urged Charla to hurry into the town.

Charla mustered his courage and continued deeper into the town. As he walked, he couldn't hold back any longer and said to his viewers in the live stream, "Is this town holding some kind of event? There's not a single living person here! Haven't the townspeople gotten up yet? That can't be, can it?"

Charla was terrified, but she still mustered her courage, walked to a small villa next door, and knocked on the door.

He knocked for a long time, and the doorbell rang repeatedly, but no one came to open the door.

Unable to contain himself any longer, Charla looked at the not-so-high wall and said to the viewers in the live stream, "I suspect this family may have encountered an accident. I want to go in and take a look. I absolutely have no intention of stealing anything. Everyone, be my witnesses. I want to go in and see."

After saying that, Charla climbed over the wall and entered the courtyard.

The villa door wasn't even closed, and Charla easily entered. Reaching the front of the villa's hall, he noticed the crystal chandelier was still lit.

"The lights are still on, which means the people here shouldn't have gone far, but why didn't anyone respond to me just now?"

Charla found it very strange and called out, "Is anyone home?"

He called out several times, but his shouts echoed through the villa without any response.

The viewers in the live stream were discussing the matter heatedly, speculating why everyone had disappeared, with all sorts of outrageous guesses emerging.

Unable to find anyone, Charla had no choice but to leave the house.

Next, he used the same method to inquire and explore several other places, but the result was the same: he gained nothing.

I don't think the streamers who came here to broadcast before encountered such a terrifying scene, right? At least back then, they could still see people, right?
Charla grew increasingly terrified and began wandering around the town. After searching most of the town without seeing a single person, his fear could no longer be contained.

Ignoring the donations and requests from viewers in the live stream, he only wanted to leave as quickly as possible and report the situation to the nearest law enforcement agency.

After exploring the last empty villa, he turned to leave, but saw a little boy at the door. The boy stared at him like a ghost, terrifying Charla.

The viewers in the live stream were also quite frightened.

"Brother, are you live-streaming here?" the little boy asked casually, as if he knew nothing.

Actually, the relevant memories in the little boy's mind had been tampered with, but the changes were minor; Zhang Hao had simply erased his own existence.

In the little boy's memory, the reason everyone in the town disappeared was because the entire town had participated in a heinous crime that killed innocent people. So, the souls of those innocent victims returned to seek revenge and slaughtered everyone in the town.

He was spared because he hadn't had a chance to participate in that evil deed back then.

Charla carefully examined the little boy, and only after confirming that he was alive did she muster up the courage to walk over: "I am indeed broadcasting live here, but I don't see anyone, which I find very strange... Little brother, are you all here? Where are your parents?"

The little boy tilted his head, looking both cute and bewildered: "Here... or rather, in the whole town, I'm the only one left. Big brother, if you're looking for someone else, you'll never find them in your entire life."

These words were instantly transmitted online through the live stream camera, causing an uproar among the viewers in the live stream room.

Is this real or a prank?
Some people think it's real, while others believe it's a deliberate prank, a cheap trick used by streamers to attract viewers, and that it's disgusting.

"How could the people here suddenly disappear? I don't recall any violent unrest or terrorist attacks happening here. How could they just vanish like that? Is your village up to some kind of prank on outsiders? Well then, bring them out. I admit I was scared, okay?"

Charla swallowed hard and spoke with difficulty:

"No, this isn't a prank, it's real, big brother. Do you want to know why?"

The little boy stood there, as still as a wooden stake, with only his eyes twitching slightly.

The uncanny valley effect gradually manifested in him.

"I'm telling you, you acted so realistically, I was almost scared to tears! Please, don't scare me anymore!" Charla was nearly in tears.

This must be fake, right?
How could an entire town just disappear without a trace?
What are the local law enforcement agencies doing?
However, considering the consistent practices of their country's law enforcement agencies, this seems to make sense.

"Big brother, stop pretending. I know you're really scared and can't believe it, but it's the truth. Don't worry, that devil has taken his revenge and won't kill any more innocent people, so you don't have to worry about suddenly dying. You can also go and explore the hidden truth here."

The viewers in the live stream were both scared and excited, and they were also eager to find out the truth, so they showered the streamer with tips so that he could get the truth out of the little boy.

"The truth... what is the truth?"

Seeing that the little boy didn't seem to be lying, Charla cautiously probed for a question.

Since I'm not going to die, I might as well try to find something exciting.

Charla's curiosity, which had been suppressed by fear, began to stir again.

"Oh, this happened a long time ago, I think it was twenty or thirty years ago. Someone in our town adopted a pair of orphaned twin boys from the East. It even made the headlines back then, so you should be able to find it." (End of Chapter)
