"I am."

"Shi Zhiyuan."

The two Shi Zhiyuans on the ground looked up at the same time.

On the ceiling.

The four eyes turned to the corner of the wall as well, following the "third Shi Zhiyuan" formed by the two halves of the shadow.

Gurgle.

One of them, Shi Zhiyuan, swallowed hard.

The other one was a beat slower, but it also started rolling.

Luo Shouzhou stood between the two.

The cigarette had fallen to the ground, but he didn't bend down to pick it up.

He stared at the black cloth.

"interesting."

"Two alive."

"Hang one up there."

There's another one hidden behind the mirror.

"Did you guys wholesale Shi Zhiyuan?"

A soft cough came from behind the black cloth.

"cough……"

After coughing.

I habitually sniff my nose.

The same.

next second.

Shi Zhiyuan on the left also coughed.

"cough……"

Sniffing.

It follows closely on the right.

"cough……"

It's the same again.

Three voices.

It came from three directions.

But it's like a person's voice.

This is no longer a simple smokescreen.

Shi Zhiyuan on the left said urgently:

"Master Luo."

Don't listen to them!

The right side immediately opens:

"He's the fake one!"

Behind the black cloth.

The voice chuckled.

"Master Luo."

"9:07 PM last night."

"You sent me two nifedipine pills."

"The wine jug was placed by the bedside."

"I said the medicine tasted bitter."

"you say--"

It paused for a moment.

Then.

He even mimicked Luo Shouzhou's lazy tone from that time.

"Don't eat it if you don't like it bitter."

"Death saves on medicine."

Luo Shouzhuo's eye twitched slightly.

Shi Zhiyuan on the left was deathly pale.

"I know that too!"

The person on the right immediately said:

"Those are my memories!"

"your?"

"fart!"

The two of them took a step forward at the same time.

Luo Shouzhuo suddenly raised his foot.

boom!

"Stand there."

The sound wasn't loud.

The two of them stopped at the same time.

A four-eyed shadow on the ceiling.

It stopped too.

But under the black cloth in the corner.

Suddenly, the outline of a human face slowly bulged out.

First, it was on the forehead.

Next is the bridge of the nose.

At last.

The lips protrude slightly.

Through the black cloth.

It looks like someone is pressing their entire face against a mirror.

That "face" spoke.

The fabric moved in and out in accordance with the shape of the lips.

"Master Luo."

"Can you still tell the difference?"

Luo Shouzhou did not answer.

He squatted down.

He picked up the cigarette again.

He blew off the dust.

It then took it back into its mouth.

He picked up a pinch of cigarette ash.

They flicked the needles at each of their foreheads.

The cigarette ash didn't fall to the ground; it all stuck to the ground.

Soul energy.

There are.

The wine splashed across the tips of the shoes, and the life force on both sides rose simultaneously, still from the same source.

The wind symbol presses down on all four directions.

The earth beneath their feet.

They may even fluctuate simultaneously.

However, Shi Zhiyuan felt a slight pressure on his chest from any one of them.

The other person's wrist has a black line.

They will tighten immediately.

Like between two bodies.

It is always connected by an invisible umbilical cord.

Luo Shouzhuo tried this.

I'm not going to try.

The voice behind the black cloth chuckled softly.

"Master Luo."

"Want to guess?"

If I'm wrong...

Shi Zhiyuan felt a sudden tightness in his chest.

"Well!"

At the same time, the right side bent over.

"Well--!"

Two black lines shot an inch toward his heart.

"Take your hand away."

Silence fell behind the black cloth.

moment.

The voice then rang out again.

"It seems Master Luo..."

"There are times when I'm afraid to choose."

Luo Shouzhou listened.

Instead, he laughed.

"select?"

He took the cigarette out of his mouth and casually stubbed it out on the back of the compass.

Who told you that?

"Do you expect me to choose from what you've laid out?"

The laughter behind the black cloth stopped.

Luo Shouzhuo reached out his hand.

He took the mahjong tiles out of his pocket one by one.

【plum】

Snapped.

Northeast corner.

【orchid】

Snapped.

southeast.

【bamboo】

【chrysanthemum】

Four cards.

Sijiao Town.

At last.

Luo Shouzhuo pulled out a whiteboard.

He glanced down and bit his thumb.

A smear of blood was wiped directly across the whiteboard.

Bright red bloodstains.

A striking red line is drawn across the pure white surface.

Luo Shouzhuo backhanded.

Snapped!

The white board is pressing down on the compass celestial pool.

This moment.

The black cloth in the corner suddenly billowed violently!

Shi Zhiyuan, the bespectacled man on the ceiling, also suddenly turned his head.

Luo Shouzhou looked up at it.

"What's the rush?"

"Didn't you just ask me to guess?"

He pressed down with each of his five fingers in turn.

East.

West.

South.

north.

Central Palace.

"People can be fake."

"Shadows can be borrowed."

Luo Shouzhou's voice grew softer and softer.

"But where did you borrow it from?"

"Just return it to me obediently."

Under the old compass.

Suddenly, a dull thud resounded.

thump—

Like the foundation of an eighteen-story building.

Someone tapped me from below.

The expressions of both Shi Zhiyuan changed simultaneously.

The paintings on the wall began to float upwards.

The water in the cup flows down the side of the cup.

It flows backward slowly.

The curtains were clearly hanging down.

The hem, however, gradually rose towards the ceiling.

next second.

All the lights.

Snapped!

It was extinguished at the same time.

in the dark.

Luo Shouzhuo's voice rang out.

"It's unclear from the ground."

"Then let's go somewhere else."

Press down heavily with all five fingers!

"world--"

"Reverse reflection!"

clang!!!

The compass made a loud cracking sound.

The entire floor has eighteen floors.

Instantaneous weightlessness.

The entire corridor seemed to have suddenly flipped over!

The person didn't fall.

The wall didn't collapse.

But at the same time, everyone felt a violent sense of weightlessness in their stomachs!

The water glass on the table.

The water actually climbed upwards against the side of the cup.

The direction in which the curtains fall.

From the ground.

Slowly pointing towards the ceiling.

Snapped!

All lights went out at the same time.

Darkness for a second.

Brighter!

The lights were a stark white.

It was even seeping through the floor tiles beneath our feet!

Both Shi Zhiyuan looked up at the same time.

shadow.

Missed.

on the ground.

It was empty.

next second.

On the ceiling above their heads.

Two figures appeared at the same time!

The one on the left.

It is completely connected to Shi Zhiyuan himself from head to toe.

The black line starts from the ankle.

It plunged into the flesh.

Extend outwards.

The one on the right.

But they are completely different.

It is also like Shi Zhiyuan.

However, a very thin black line trailed below the waist.

Pass through the wall.

Cross the corridor.

It leads all the way to that mirror!

The mirror surface is blackish.

The shadow line also began to shrink.

"Trying to run now?"

Luo Shouzhuo hooked his toe.

The whiteboard card flew up from the ground.

Snapped!

It's stuck right on Shi Zhiyuan's right forehead!

Jing Shen froze completely.

The life force that was originally shrinking back.

He's definitely going to die!

Luo Shouzhou raised his hand and grabbed.

He stretched the shadow lines on the ceiling so taut they appeared from a distance!

He clenched his five fingers.

"return!"

boom!

Shi Zhiyuan on the right suddenly shuddered.

The skin on my face started to wrinkle.

It's not aging.

It's like a crookedly pasted film slowly rolling out from between the eyebrows.

The eyes were smoothed out first.

The nose flattens out.

Her lips gradually melted into her face.

Less than two seconds.

That face was exactly the same as Shi Zhiyuan's.

All that's left is a smooth, grayish-white skin.

Click.

The shadow line is broken.

The mirror's chest suddenly collapsed.

My body felt like it had suddenly lost its support.

Snapped!

It fell to the ground.

next second.

The whole body shattered starting from the feet.

It's not flesh and blood.

They were pieces of black lenses.

slam-la-

It was spread all over the ground.

at the same time.

A fragmented, dark shadow suddenly darted out from the shattered mirror.

He rushed towards the real person, Shi Zhiyuan, close to the ground.

Snapped!

Luo Shouzhou stepped on it and crushed it.

Shi Zhiyuan was covered in cold sweat and gasped for breath, clutching his chest.

Luo Shouzhou looked up again.

The mirror suddenly went black.

boom!

A single piece of glass.

It exploded from the inside.

Shi Zhiyuan leaned against the edge of the bed.

It didn't move for a long time.

Black shards of the broken mirror were scattered on the ground.

One of them reflected his face perfectly.

Shi Zhiyuan glanced at it.

Kick it away immediately.

I almost did.

It was really just a hair's breadth away.

He was the one who was put into that box.

Those who remained.

Yet she can still wear his face.

Take his medicine.

To say what he said.

Continue to be a scholar like Shi Zhiyuan.

Shi Zhiyuan's hands were shaking.

A while later.

He then looked up.

"Mr. Luo."

His voice was trembling.

Luo Shouzhou was tidying up the mahjong tiles on the ground.

"Um?"

"I……"

Shi Zhiyuan opened his mouth.

It paused for several seconds.

It's like finally making up your mind.

There's something I need to tell you.

"I can't hide it anymore."

Luo Shouzhuo paused.

"explain."

Shi Zhiyuan's Adam's apple bobbed.

"Liu Jianguo's four attacks..."

laugh!

He didn't even finish a single sentence.

The black line on my wrist suddenly straightened!

Shi Zhiyuan froze completely.

next second.

That dark line that was originally attached to the skin.

It was like being jolted awake by the name "Liu Jianguo".

It suddenly shot upwards!

wrist.

Forearm.

elbow!

The speed is frightening!

"Well--!"

Shi Zhiyuan clutched his chest.

He fell off the bed!

boom!

His knees slammed heavily to the ground.

Her lips instantly lost their color.

Luo Shouzhou was already in front of him.

Press two fingers down on his wrist.

Snapped!

The black line suddenly sprang up.

It actually wrapped around Luo Shouzhou's fingertips!

It's like a warning.

Ask again.

People die.

Luo Shouzhou stared at the line.

"I see."

Shi Zhiyuan's chest tightened more and more.

His face had started to turn blue.

He tried to speak, but only broken gasps came out of his throat.

Luo Shouzhuo picked up a piece of lens from the ground.

laugh!

Slice open your palm directly.

Fresh blood gushed out.

Shi Zhiyuan's pupils contracted.

He shook his head with difficulty.

"Luo..."

"Save your breath."

Luo Shouzhuo's blood-red palm directly gripped his wrist.

Snapped!

The moment of contact.

The black lines suddenly exploded!

Chi Chi Chi -!

Wisps of black smoke resembled insects drawn by the smell of blood.

It frantically burrowed into Luo Shouzhuo's palm.

The veins on the back of Luo Shouzhuo's hand bulged out.

After the heavens and earth are reflected in reverse.

What lies hidden at the deepest part of this line?

He has already seen it.

The thread wasn't just tied to Shi Zhiyuan's fate.

The innermost part.

There's also a barb.

It was tightly gripping the life-protecting rune that Luo Shouzhu had personally laid out for him!

No wonder it didn't feel right no matter how I touched it before.

Forceful strike.

First, Shi Zhiyuan was injured.

Forced pull.

The life-protecting array will protect that line on its own.

The other party had already prepared a deadly technique.

He hid inside his formation.

"Take my lead."

"Take my anger."

"Use it again to kill the people I'm protecting."

Luo Shouzhu grinned.

"His mind is much darker than when I was playing cards."

His bloodied thumb.

It suddenly pressed down on the old compass celestial pool.

clang--!

The needle instantly freezes!

boom!

The earth's energy suddenly dropped across the entire eighteen-story building.

Shi Zhiyuan's wrist.

The black line was forcibly lifted out of the flesh!

Even though it was only half an inch, Shi Zhiyuan was in so much pain that his whole body convulsed.

It felt like someone was pulling nails out of a bone!

"ah--!"

"Bear with it."

Luo Shouzhuo clasped his five fingers together.

The black line twisted wildly.

Some suddenly abandoned Shi Zhiyuan.

He lunged back and struck Luo Shouzhuo's wounded palm!

laugh!

Several black lines instantly appeared on Luo Shouzhuo's entire right arm.

His face turned pale.

"That's right."

"You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub."

Shi Zhiyuan suddenly looked up.

"Mr. Luo, please stop!"

"Less sentimentality."

Luo Shouzhou gritted his teeth.

"My vision was blurry, and someone set off a cannon."

"I'll be the dealer this time and take it back myself."

The words fell.

He suddenly lifted himself up!

laugh--!

The black line was pulled out another inch!

Just one more inch!

A little bit comes out each time.

The life force on Luo Shouzhuo's shoulder dimmed slightly.

The wine jugs swayed gently at his waist.

Until the very end.

Deep within Shi Zhiyuan's wrist.

A click was heard.

Luo Shouzhuo's eyes suddenly sharpened.

"We caught them."

The barb hidden deep within the life-protecting array.

He dragged me out!

The black aura surged instantly!

The lights in the entire room suddenly went out.

It looks like there's something there.

They are very far apart.

They yanked hard on the other end of the line!

Luo Shouzhuo slid half a step backward.

He looked down and spat out the blood in his mouth.

"Still reluctant to part with it?"

Raise two fingers together.

Suppress it hard!

"Then you win."

boom!

Life force explodes!

The black line snapped with a crash!

Snapped--!

Shi Zhiyuan, however, seemed to have been suddenly pulled out of the water.

My chest suddenly felt relieved.

"ha--!"

He knelt on the ground.

Inhale deeply.

On the wrist.

The black line that had followed him for so long gradually faded away.

In the end, only a faded, old mark remained.

Luo Shouzhou swayed slightly.

He braced himself against the edge of the bed and paused for a moment before regaining his balance.

Shi Zhiyuan looked at him.

"you……"

Luo Shouzhuo's face was noticeably pale.

But he still had the same tone.

"What are you looking at?"

"Never seen a middle-aged man with kidney deficiency?"

Shi Zhiyuan: "..."

"Now."

Luo Shouzhou rinsed his mouth with the wine pot, savoring the taste of blood.

"I'll redeem your life for you first."

"What do you want to say?"

"explain."

Shi Zhiyuan did not hesitate at all.

He lunged to the bedside, lay down, and reached his hands deep inside, groping for a while before pulling out a black ledger.

The cover is worn out.

The edges and corners are frayed.

When held in arms.

His hands were still shaking.

"Master Luo... Hengtai from beginning to end."

"They're all lying to you."

The ledger was opened.

Four seemingly insignificant expenses.

It was circled heavily in red.

Repair and brake system replacement of scrap trucks

Emergency maintenance needed for the "GG" sign on the hospital's exterior wall.

Hazard mitigation measures for gas pipelines in older residential buildings

[Procurement of Security Voiceprint Equipment]

date.

location.

Amount.

The unit handling the matter.

One by one.

And those four attacks by Liu Jianguo.

Perfectly fitted.

Brake oil line.

GG brand bolts.

Gas valve.

The voice of my deceased wife.

Shi Zhiyuan's voice was hoarse.

"They are all companies affiliated with Hengtai."

Luo Shouzhuo stared at the account book.

He didn't speak.

Shi Zhiyuan said in a low voice:

"They know."

"A lie can't fool you."

"So I'll give you the real thing."

Shi Zhiyuan continued:

"The car will definitely go out of control, the license plate will definitely fall off, the gas will definitely leak, and Liu Jianguo will definitely hear his deceased wife's voice."

"But every time."

"They won't actually kill him."

"They only care about Liu Jianguo's fear."

"Afraid of the outside world."

"I'm afraid of the police."

He was afraid of anyone who came looking for him.

"at last."

"I only trust one person."

Shi Zhiyuan looked at Luo Shouzhuo.

"It's you, Master Luo."
