Dragon Clan: Retired Death, goes to work to slay dragons

Click.

The bus stops and the door opens in front of you.

Lu Mingfei closed his umbrella, stepped into the car, inserted the coin, and turned to look.

The bus was full of empty seats, with only a few figures sitting quietly in the corner wearing raincoats. The cold light from the mobile phone screen illuminated the faces as pale as death, making people feel chilled all over.

Lu Mingfei walked to a corner by the window and sat down. The push of the bus pushed him down on his seat. The window next to him was pattering with rain, and the raindrops drew sloping tracks on the window glass.

The heavy rain after winter and the gray and dark sky cast a layer of gray on the world.

Although it was only evening and it was time to take a break and go shopping after get off work, it was obvious that not many people were willing to go out in this weather today.

The usual flow of people on the street has been cut off by the dagger-like rain. You can only occasionally see cars passing by on the street with their headlights on, honking their horns and splashing water as high as a person as they speed past.

In the quiet bus, the only sound was the constant friction of the wipers.

Lu Mingfei closed his eyes and wanted to take a nap, but those small sounds seemed to be magnified several times, making him feel inexplicably anxious and uneasy.

Finally, the bus gradually slowed down, and with a click, the door slowly opened.

Before the rain flowers could float into the car, a figure had already jumped out.

Lu Mingfei, footsteps.

No one could be seen near the apartment, and the lights in each building were extinguished one by one. After a day of hustle and bustle, it was quiet again, but the cold wind blew harder.

Lu Mingfei hurriedly walked on the deserted road and ran back to the apartment in the heavy rain. He was so impatient that he didn't even open his umbrella. But when he got downstairs from the apartment, he suddenly stopped and looked behind him.

Not far away, only a dim street lamp stood alone, illuminating a piece of the road below. Everything else was shrouded in darkness and silent.

"...Did you hear that correctly?" Lu Mingfei's eyes flickered, and after glancing around, he walked into the shadow of the apartment.

It was quiet on the stairs of the apartment, except for the faint sound of rain coming from outside.

There was no one in the corridor, only closed doors, and only the safety exit lights, which were glowing with dim green light, as if they had entered a closed cage.

But Lu Mingfei slowly lowered his head and discovered a few dark red dots on the ground.

He took a deep breath, squatted down, and lightly rubbed his fingers on the red spots.

The surface of the red spots has dried up, but it has a sticky feeling and a sweet smell.

--is blood.

As if the suspicion in his heart that he didn't want to believe was confirmed, all the hairs on Lu Mingfei's body slowly stood on end.

He looked forward a little helplessly. There were still a few blood spots on the stairs in front of him, spreading all the way to the first floor in front of him.

The door on the first floor...is not closed.

Lu Mingfei stood up slowly, his chest heaving violently, and stood breathlessly. He moved his feet again, slowly walked up the steps, and tiptoed towards the first floor.

As he got closer and closer to the dark door, Lu Mingfei's heart beat faster and faster, and the pounding sound seemed to echo in the corridor.

Lu Mingfei even felt that if there were people in that room, his heartbeat would have been heard, right?

Suddenly, he heard a voice that was not his own.

Abnormally rapid breathing, murmuring, and... weird little noises.

………………

"Is there anything unusual?"

"No, the target is preparing dinner now."

"Can we just wait now? Can't we just go in and arrest people?"

The dull atmosphere gradually spread in the room, just like the rising smoke. Through it, you can't see me clearly, and I can't see you clearly.

But the police officers on guard were in the same state.

Exhausted and cranky.

"Stop complaining. Didn't those two people say that the target's current state is very dangerous? We can only wait for that guy to come out on his own."

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Yan, who was sitting in front of the monitor, jumped up, stretched his waist, and looked down at his watch.

At this moment, the door to the room was opened, and Huang Yan and Anani walked in, each carrying two large bags of lunch.

"Everyone, thank you for your hard work. Let's eat first."

The police officers seemed very happy when they saw the lunch boxes.

After getting the lunch boxes, they couldn't wait to stand against the wall, or squat in the corner, eating rudely, swallowing the food that was already a little cold. Occasionally, someone would bite the sand and swallow it whole.

Even if he is leaning against the cold wall, even if he is swallowing the rice that is not hot in the cold wind, he looks very delicious.

However, while they were eating, they did not forget to keep an eye on the location of the target and would not miss any suspicious people or things.

"No matter how many times I watch it, I still feel in awe... The bunch of losers in our country who take taxpayers' money but only fish in troubled waters cannot do this."

Looking at this group of slovenly and haggard people, but always vigilant like hunters, Anani sighed to Huang Yan beside him.

As he spoke, he distributed several boxes of good cigarettes and received the thanks of several police officers.

Seeing the police officers devouring their food, Anani seemed to feel a little hungry and shared a box of lunch under Jiang Yan's blank stare.

"The target just got out of sight and took some candles and red wine and what appeared to be some roses."

After hearing the report from his subordinates, Jiang Yan frowned and said thoughtfully: "Is that guy... preparing a candlelight dinner?"

Candles and wine and roses?

Just when he was still doubting, Huang Yan walked over quickly and asked in a low voice: "How many dishes has that guy prepared?"

This sudden movement and sound startled Jiang Yan.

"What's wrong?" He glanced at the surveillance camera and replied subconsciously, "Two copies, oh no, three copies... Huh? Why do you have to prepare so many?"

But the next second, Jiang Yan's expression suddenly changed when he saw a familiar figure.

"Damn, why is that kid there?!"

………………

In a neat and clean but dimly lit room.

Q gently took out four long-stemmed glasses and placed them on the Western-style dining table with four seats.

Plates, cutlery and forks were placed in front of each seat, and napkins folded into a rose shape were placed inside the plates.

All this proves how much the host values ​​the ritual of this dinner.

Snapped!

Q used the corkscrew to pull out the cork of the red wine with some unfamiliarity.

As if he was imitating someone, he was pouring red wine in a weird way.

Although I try my best to be more elegant, outsiders can only see weirdness.

"Do you like it, Mom?"

Q looked at the head of the table, smiled slightly and said: "Today is your birthday, I have prepared this special dinner."

"..."

The figure sitting in front of him did not respond.

There was only an eerie silence and coldness in the room.

The cold moonlight outside the window poured in, and the figure in front of the table was looming.

Q seemed to be used to her silence.

He just supported her carefully and didn't forget to cover her with a blanket.

After doing all this, Q looked at the figure aside, showed a small and humble smile, and said in a slow and soothing tone: "Dad, can I have a little drink today?"

"..."

When he received no response, Q picked up the wine glass in front of him and touched the glass of wine opposite him.

"Dad, I don't need friends, I can take care of myself..."

"Mom, it seems that I can have someone I like, but can someone like me..."

The voice of talking to himself, accompanied by a crisp collision, echoed in the silent room.

As night gradually fell, the two figures became more and more blurred, sitting there quietly, as if they were trying their best to cooperate with the quiet environment, and they were like two loyal listeners.

Only a figure could be seen shaking in the darkness, and there seemed to be chewing sounds in its mouth.

Listening to the sound of rain falling on the eaves outside the window, chewing the cold and slightly moist taste called loneliness.

But at this time.

Click!

The ballast of the fluorescent lamp hummed, and the whole room instantly became as bright as day.

Q, who was used to the darkness, was so dizzy that he suddenly turned around to look.

"...Xie Wan?"

In the room that smelled of blood, Lu Mingfei stood at the door of the living room, pressing one hand on the light switch.

His trembling pupils were full of fear.

Finally saw it.

The strong light shone directly from the top of his head, Xie Wan's eyes turned blue, and his eyes were so dark that the whites of his eyes could not be seen.

The edges of her mouth were bright red, and viscous red liquid dripped from the corners of her mouth from time to time.

And right next to her, there were two dolls.

The entire human skin was tightly wrapped around the doll, but the human skin was already black and rotten. The appearance of a middle-aged man and woman could be vaguely seen. A smile was painted on both faces, which was vivid but extremely weird. absurd.

"You..." This extremely impactful scene made Lu Mingfei stunned for a few seconds. Suddenly his whole body felt cold. His expression and voice trembled slightly as he asked, "What on earth are you doing...?"

At that moment, he saw a trace of beast-like ferocity flash through the girl's eyes, but then there was helplessness and despair that almost overflowed from her eyes.

"Lu Mingfei, you're here too..." She suddenly grinned, but the smile disappeared without a trace in an instant, and the corners of her eyes and mouth drooped, "I don't know..."

Only then did Lu Mingfei notice the weird smell in the air, the rancid smell that even the freshener couldn't cover up, making him feel nauseous.

"Xie Wan! What's going on?!"

He raised his head suddenly, walked quickly to Xie Wan, reached out to hold her shoulders, looked directly into her eyes, and asked slowly and uneasily, "That dog...little Q...is there?" where?"

Xie Wan just let himself be manipulated blankly, as if he didn't hear anything, staring blankly in front of him, showing no intention of resisting.

It wasn't until she heard Lu Mingfei say Xiao Q's name that her eyes slowly moved towards Lu Mingfei's, looking like a patient suffering from the sequelae of a stroke.

Tears slowly fell from his eyes, and he said in a tone without emotion: "They all hate it... I can't... rely on it anymore..."

Lu Mingfei stared at those dull eyes in shock, trying his best to think about the meaning of Xie Wan's words.

"What do you mean, who do you rely on?" He shook Xie Wan's shoulders and said in a hoarse voice, "Speak!"

Under the violent shaking, Xie Wan's pupils shrank, as if he was waking up from a dream.

"No, no... I don't know, I don't know!" She raised her hand and wiped it randomly around her mouth, but when she saw that her hand was covered with blood, tears and snot flowed down instantly.

She was crying and smearing her face wildly, and her face was covered with criss-crossed blood stains.

"No, no, don't be anxious, don't be afraid!" Lu Mingfei grabbed her hand with force and murmured in a low voice, "Xie Wan! What's going on, tell me, okay, let me help you..."

Lu Mingfei? Lu Mingfei!

She seemed to have just recognized the person in front of her, and grabbed Lu Mingfei's collar. There was deep fear and prayer in her eyes, "Help me, help me, please, it's not me, it's not me who did this." Yes, I don’t know…”

"Don't tell others, don't tell others, I'm not crazy! I didn't mean it! I didn't want that!"

As she said that, she pushed Lu Mingfei away, rushed to the table, picked up the flesh and blood, knives and forks with her hands, looked around, and kept saying to herself: "Pack it away quickly, hurry up, Don’t let others see it…quickly!”

Lu Mingfei was pushed to the ground, and his mind suddenly went blank.

Bang! !

Before he could react, the door was kicked open.

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Yan ran to Lu Mingfei's side with a tense face.

He protected Lu Mingfei behind him, raised the gun in his hand, clicked the hammer, pointed at the absent-minded Xie Wan and shouted: "Put down the knife! Otherwise I will shoot!"

"No, don't!" Lu Mingfei came back to his senses and hurriedly hugged Jiang Yan's arm, "Don't shoot, there must be something wrong with this! She, she's not usually like this..."

The doors to several rooms outside opened one after another. Neighbors who heard the commotion poked their heads out in their underwear, but were blocked by the police officers.

However, Xie Wan looked at them blankly, stared at Lu Mingfei and murmured: "You also have to...abandon..."

"Do it!"

Jiang Yan stepped forward, saw her hand holding the knife and firmly grasped it, and flipped his wrist.

I thought Xie Wan would throw away the knife in pain, but she didn't expect to let go as if she wasn't afraid of the pain. Jiang Yan hit her wrist hard with his knee, and the knife fell to the ground.

Then he grabbed Xie Wan by the collar and swung him forward hard, causing him to hit the wall hard, then fell heavily to the ground and curled up.

Another police officer quickly stepped forward, turned Xie Wan over, put his knee on her back, and at the same time took out handcuffs and cuffed her hands behind her back.

Xie Wan was pressed to the ground and stared at Lu Mingfei.

The wild and ferocious look returned to her eyes again. She struggled and twisted her body desperately and opened her mouth to bite.

The strength of her struggle made the police officer who restrained her change his expression and shouted: "This guy is too strong!"

Lu Mingfei just stared at her blankly, looking at those familiar eyes. At this time, there were only three words left in his mind:

Why?

At this moment, a figure walked in, and a gentle voice came into his ears:

"Has it been solved? Thank you for your hard work."
