The alley was in the middle of several residential buildings. There used to be street lamps in the alley; however, some of them had been broken recently as the municipal department had not fixed them yet. Looking from afar, one section of the street lamps was bright while the other section was dark. Especially in the middle of the night, the dark alley was winding and secluded, which was not very friendly for the late-night visitors who had to pass through the two neighboring communities.
An orange taxi stopped at the entrance of the alley. The door of the taxi opened as two women in black miniskirts and high heels got off the taxi. They smelled of alcohol and wore heavy makeup.
The two women were no longer young. Only the tail of their youth could be seen. Their faces and bodies were covered with the special aura of prostitutes left by those who had been hanging around the nightclubs for years. It was hard to distinguish the aura of prostitutes. Women who were tainted with that aura were like fresh flowers tainted with oil. Those who knew what was going on would understand it at a glance.
The uncle who drove the taxi took the money and whistled towards the two women. After glancing at their swaying buttocks and waists, he stepped on the accelerator and left reluctantly.
There were still lights at the entrance of the alley. There were some piles of burnt paper money on the ground. The two women carefully avoided the burnt paper money as they walked into the alley with fear.
A cold wind blew in the alley, blowing the ashes of the paper money into the air. The serene alley looked a bit gloomy.
The sound of their high heels echoed in the alley, rustling like a panicked deer. The street lamp elongated their shadows, pressing them firmly above the ground, wriggling on the puddles of water.
"Mei, let's move to another place …" A woman's teeth chattered as she held the other woman's arm tightly, "I'm scared every time I walk through this alley …"
"Lili, what's there to be scared of?" The woman called Mei pretended to be calm. "Didn't we just meet a little hooligan last time? That little hooligan only dared to take advantage of us and say a few words. We won't lose anything. Besides, the rent here is cheap. It's not easy to find such a cheap and convenient house …"
The woman called Lili glanced at the depth of the dark alley with a worried look, "Do you think that hooligan will still be in the alley tonight?"
"It doesn't matter. He's just a hooligan who uses a knife to scare people. He won't dare to do anything …"
The two women walked in the alley, but they didn't notice that the shadows behind them were wriggling abnormally. It seemed that something was trying to get out of the shadows behind them.
They quickened their pace and walked through a dark area that was more than 20 meters long before they came to a lit area. There was a figure in a blue sweater leaning against the lamppost with his back facing them.
The figure was wearing a hood, but the sweater was very familiar. The back of the figure was also very familiar. It was the gangster who often walked around the alley with a dagger and took advantage of women. He seemed to be waiting for them.
The two women looked at each other and walked directly over without stopping.
We are under Brother Xiong's protection. If you continue to mess around, I will call the police even if I don't tell Brother Xiong to punish you. If you want to play with women, go to the club or the nightclub. As long as you can pay, you can have any kind of woman. What do you mean by coming here? You want to get a free prostitute … "Mei was a little shrewish. She went up and scolded him. She even pushed the little hooligan's shoulder hard.
The little hooligan fell to the ground. A head with a pale face and frightened eyes rolled out of the hood. Its skin was as dry as tree bark, without a trace of blood. It rolled a few meters on the ground.
In the clothes of the headless corpse, countless rats and cockroaches came out of the man's neck and chest and scurried in the alley.
Colorful snakes crawled out of the mouth, ears, and nostrils of the head that had fallen to the ground.
Such a scene scared the two women so much that they screamed. Their legs turned to jelly and they fainted on the ground where there were still some black puddles.
The women fell, but their shadows did not. Instead, they swelled up, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws. The shadows wriggled and turned into a translucent humanoid figure. Its eyes were blood-red, and it opened its mouth from its face to the back of its head, biting towards the woman called Ah Mei.
"Bastard …" With a roar, Tu Polu fell from the sky. The blade of the guillotine in his hand flashed with a faint golden light.
The huge blade fell from the sky and cut the monster that came out of the shadow into two halves from head to toe.
The human-shaped shadow that was split into two by Tu Polu gave off a sizzling sound and emitted black smoke with a burnt smell. Its body directly shattered, and then a dark red smoke came out of the shadow. It passed through the wall at the side and drilled into the sewer not far away.
Just as the black smoke was about to enter the sewer, Fang Lingshan's cold voice sounded. "Fire …"
At the entrance of the sewer, a fireball suddenly flew over and directly hit the black smoke, enveloping it and burning it fiercely.
The smoke emitted an ear-piercing high-frequency scream. The few street lamps in the alley exploded with a bang, turning into countless glass shards and falling down like snowflakes.
The alley became completely dark.
Only the bright fireball was still burning fiercely. In the blink of an eye, the black smoke turned into light smoke and completely dissipated. Nothing was left at the scene.
Fang Lingshan's figure jumped down from the roof at the side. Lightly tapping on the wall, she landed steadily in the alley with the agility of the night.
In the alley, the two women had completely fainted from fright and collapsed on the ground.
Other than that, there were no other corpses in the alley. The street lamp not far away was clean. The hooligan was not there, and there were no rats, snakes, insects, or cockroaches.
"The wavy body of that phantom monster devil spirit has been eliminated …" Fang Lingshan's gaze swept across the alley. "There are no other devil spirits here!"
"Fortunately, we arrived in time. Otherwise, these two women would have turned into dried corpses. I don't know what these two women saw after they were hallucinated. They were actually so scared …" Tu Polu said in a low voice.
Tu Polu looked like a burly man, but at this time, he was very meticulous. Seeing the two prostitutes collapsed in the sewage of the alley, he shook his head and dragged them out of the sewage with one hand, placing them against the wall under the street lamp.
Fang Lingshan walked over and took out a strangely shaped syringe. She squatted down and quickly injected two shots of light green medicine into the necks of the two women.
After being injected with two injections, the two women's frightened looks gradually disappeared. After a short while, they leaned against the wall and fell asleep.
The medicine Fang Lingshan injected into the two women was a special sedative. After it was injected into the human body, it would make the person fall asleep and forget everything that had happened before when they woke up.
If they weren't injected with this kind of medicine, the nerves of ordinary people would become abnormal after experiencing such a terrifying experience. It was common for them to go crazy from fright.
Tu Polu took out his phone and called the police to send them to the hospital.
However, before the police arrived, Mo Yanshao and An Qing had already rushed over after receiving the news, followed by Cao Xinghua and Li Yunzhou.
Li Yunzhou was swearing and swearing. His entire body was dripping wet, as if he had just been fished out of the water.
After listening to Tu Polu and Fang Lingshan, Mo Yanshao frowned and said to them, "It's been more than two years since the ghost spirit appeared in Xiangxiang City.
"It has been more than two years since a phantom monster's demon spirit appeared in Xianghe City, so this phantom monster's demon spirit must have been brought to Xianghe City by the host recently. Judging from the time, the host who brought the phantom monster's demon spirit to Xianghe City is very likely to be the member of the Demon Eyes who caused the Tianqin Shopping Center murder case. The Demon Eyes member is still in Xianghe City and has not left, and he's within ten kilometers …"
Mo Yanshao scanned his surroundings, but there were many buildings within ten thousand meters, covering the entire core area of the city. There were countless hotels and residential areas, and it was too difficult to lock onto a stranger in this area. With his current remote vision ability, he could not do it.
"This ghost spirit is a solitary entity, so there might be more than one ghost spirit parasitizing that member of the Demon Eyes …" An Qing said softly.
"He fought with that person tonight to test if we're lighting up the lanterns. He's planning to waste time with us!" Li Yunzhou rubbed his nose.
"As long as that person is still in Xianghe City, we'll find him. I want to see how many ghost spirits he has." Mo Yanshao's eyes turned cold.
…
A moment later, two police cars arrived outside the alley and stopped outside. A few police officers with flashlights went into the depths of the alley and found the two women sleeping in the alley. They quickly called for an ambulance …
The three lit heart lanterns were still lit, silently guarding the night of Xianghe City in three corners of the city.
…
In an ordinary guest room on the 37th floor of a hotel five kilometers away from the alley where the incident took place, a fat man in his forties who was slightly bald and had no distinguishing features was sitting by the window. He held a wine glass and squinted his eyes as he looked in the direction of the alley where the incident took place.
The fatty was like an ordinary company salesman who came to Xianghe City on a business trip. After running around for a day, a few buttons of his shirt were unbuttoned, and his tie was loosened. He casually hung it around his neck.
Only a table lamp was lit in the room.
The fatty's shadow twisted on the carpet in the room.
"Stop messing around …" The fatty whispered, and the twisted shadows quieted down.
Then, a strange smile appeared on the fatty's face. The fatty whispered, "Lamplighters of the Committee of Order, it's good to move. Let's all move. The day of Holy Arrival is coming soon …"
The next morning, the fatty checked out of the hotel, then drove an inconspicuous old pickup truck and quietly left Xianghe City.
