When I was in a world of unconventional rules and taboos

"Damn, it really was a fire. I knew it. The neighbor's room was burned like that, so the fire must have spread. But there was no trace of it in my house. It was covered up. This is the truth behind the deaths of this middle-aged couple, their naughty child, and their silly dog."

"Damn it, those damned oil dealers, how many innocent people have they killed!"

"Damn, so the sudden appearance of the 'blood-red waning moon' in this world is the real reason for the birth of these strange creatures. That middle-aged couple, the brat, and the stupid dog were all resurrected because of it."

"The entire city has fallen. No wonder Jason and Lefster died so tragically. There are all sorts of strange creatures outside. They just went out and got themselves killed."

"Holy crap, the whole city is full of monsters. As for the Chosen Ones, how should I put it? Home is actually the safest place. This middle-aged couple has been protecting the Chosen Ones from beginning to end. Without their protection, the Chosen Ones would probably have been eaten clean by the wolves and tigers outside long ago. Not to mention, that monster next door is no pushover."

"But if that's the case, why did they kill the Chosen One? And why did they harbor ill will towards the Chosen One? It doesn't make sense!"

"Who said they wanted to kill the Chosen One? Do you remember rules three, four, five, six, and ten? Family love is real; they are a family. We always project our thoughts onto the living, but we forget the most crucial thing: they are no longer living. They have been corrupted by the supernatural and become creatures of legend."

In their eyes, the Chosen One's identity as a living person is undoubtedly extremely dangerous in a city full of strange creatures. They may be able to protect him for a short time, but they cannot protect him forever.

They never intended to kill the Chosen One.

Instead, they wanted the chosen ones to also become...

Strange! Talk! About! Life! Creatures!

When that most mysterious newspaper finally unveiled its secrets...

The audience outside the city instantly understood the truth behind this strange world!

At the same time, he also learned the full extent of his family's strange behavior all along.

From beginning to end, this family has given all the chosen ones more protection than harm.

Although this strange family love is somewhat distorted, it is filled with ultimate purity.

.....

"So, I'm the only living person in this city?"

A glint of light flashed in Su Ming's eyes. Although he was surprised by the result, he wasn't too surprised.

At that moment, he instantly understood the source of his vulnerability and his mother's strange behavior earlier.

He might be the first among all the chosen ones to have his identity exposed.

In the eyes of his strange parents, he, the "eldest son" in the family, should be a weak and helpless living person.

If it weren't for their constant protection, they would have been torn to shreds by the monsters outside long ago.

However, judging from Su Ming's behavior after entering the world of ghost stories, he doesn't seem like an ordinary person who can't even kill a chicken. He's even more ferocious than the creatures in the ghost stories!

First, he dealt with the bratty younger brother.

She held her own against her strange parents.

He even chopped off his terrifying neighbor's hand and killed him outright; he's incredibly ruthless!

In contrast, the other chosen ones' timid and trembling demeanor made them seem more like living people.

Su Ming is like a monster in human skin.

If it weren't for the fact that the strange couple could still confirm the presence of a living person on Su Ming, they would have suspected that this guy was one of their kind.

It was precisely because of Su Ming's strange behavior that his "disguise" was exposed early on.

"You knew all along that I wasn't your son?"

"right!"

Dad stopped eating and took out a few napkins to wipe his hands.

"Then why don't you take action?"

Su Ming was somewhat curious.

Since the other party knew about his abnormality, killing him wouldn't be difficult.

However, judging from past experience, they always seem to hold back at crucial moments.

This undoubtedly piqued his curiosity.

Even at this moment, what lies before me is a bizarre creature.

He remained unafraid, and was even more curious.

However, his father's next words stunned him.

"Because we are family."

"When you stood in front of Xiaoxiao, I could tell that you weren't doing it for any other purpose, but simply wanted to protect him. You fulfilled the duty of an older brother."

"I've been watching you all along, no matter when or where. I even took care of the body you threw down the building last night to avoid any unnecessary trouble and attracting any greedy 'vultures'."

Admittedly, although you've made quite a few underhanded moves, they're all just for self-preservation.

You have never had the intention to harm your family members; in fact, you have actively integrated yourself into the family.

The human heart does not lie.

I can feel your sincerity.

I really like that.

However, to be honest, I can't see through your true nature. Sometimes, your behavior may seem strange and eccentric, but it always carries some special purpose.

In some ways, you're dangerous, and I don't really like you.

But both she and Xiaoxiao like you very much, and neither of them wants to hurt you. That alone is enough.

In my opinion, as long as they are willing to accept your presence, I will not refuse them.

Family ties don't necessarily have to be based on blood relations.

Sometimes, a sincere heart, treating others with honesty, is what makes someone family.

"family?!"

Su Ming silently recited the word, which was both unfamiliar and familiar, his expression somewhat moved, as if it had stirred up some kind of memory.

Undeniably, Su Ming's "disguise" was quickly exposed after he entered this world of supernatural tales.

However, his subsequent actions and behavior were inextricably linked to the theme of family, fully demonstrating his identity as the "eldest son," which made the strange family members feel a sense of kinship, and forcibly straightened the crooked line of fate.

This is something that none of the other chosen ones have been able to do.

The middle-aged man in front of me, who had always appeared taciturn,

At this moment, however, it exuded a terrifying sense of oppression and majesty.

At this moment, Su Ming finally understood why the "father" was specifically considered a dangerous person in the rules.

Because the head of the household is the most terrifying person in the family!

Despite his seemingly ruthless nature and the power he wields in the family, "Mom" has always wanted to "kill him," but her personality is too sentimental, and she always chooses to hold back at crucial moments.

The seemingly unruly and mischievous younger brother actually harbored a special kind of "admiration" for his "older brother" and never intended to kill him.

That silly dog ​​was completely obedient to him and utterly loyal.

Only the "father" in front of him, who had always been silent and seemed to be indifferent to everything, was the one with the most steadfast will from beginning to end.

If it weren't for the mischievous kid's interference, he would have already attacked Su Ming.

When his wife and youngest son began to waver, the patriarch of the family simply sent them away, preparing to resolve everything himself.

To bring everything to a final close.

Su Ming smiled, a very bright smile.

What if I were to leave?

"I'm not discussing this with you!"

The middle-aged man's attitude was very firm, and he spoke in a cold and hard tone.

A bowl of "meat soup" was placed in front of Su Ming.

He knew without even thinking that its origin was probably the flesh and blood of some kind of strange creature.

Clearly, this patriarch was issuing an ultimatum.

Either take the initiative to truly become "a part" of the family, or you're forced to take the initiative.

The "father and son," who were talking for the first time, seemed to be at odds with each other.
