The sun sets and darkness falls.
Li Mang was excited about the success of Lu Xin's plan and shed tears of joy. He waved his limbs and had hope of continuing to live.
Lu Xin raised her head and looked at the dark night, her heart falling to the bottom.
When the real truth appeared in her mind, Lu Xin only felt that her shoulders were heavy, so heavy that she doubted herself whether it was better not to know all this.
She even felt that she had no way to prove all this to the world. What was she going to do? Was she going to make everyone a victim?
Li Mang was stunned for a moment, looked at Lu Xin's leaving figure, and asked:
"Officer Lu, where are you going? Are you going back to the police station?"
"What should we do next? What should we do?"
Lu Xin walked out of Li Mang's house in a daze. Li Mang did not follow him because he believed that Lu Xin must do something more important.
He looked at Lu Xin's back expectantly, placing his last hope on her.
Officer, come on.
Lu Xin didn't answer. She lowered her hands and stiffly walked out of Li Mang's house. She turned around, leaving only her back following him step by step.
Night shrouded the originally simple and happy Bincheng. Walking on this street again, Lu Xin looked at the earth-shaking changes infatuatedly——
The walls of the city are covered with red paint with the words "Help me". One after another, deformed people are wandering on the streets. They either still hold on to hope and ask for help from passers-by, or they have given up struggling and wait. In the end, they turned into monsters, and some of them were already crazy. They took knives and stabbed innocent passers-by. They brutally killed passers-by. Maybe they were taking revenge on the world, or they hoped to gain a little attention and prove themselves. There are still connections with this world, but in the end, all people will end up in one of three ways.
A kind of crazy laughter, a kind of desperate cry, and a kind of numbness of death.
This disaster was so great that before she woke up, she thought it was all happening on a small scale.
"What are you doing?"
"What are you doing..."
Lu Xin paused. She felt that she should do something, but she didn't know where to start. After thinking for a long time, she could only think of her own uselessness and failure.
"I should tell everyone... I should put an end to these things."
"But... who will believe me? I'm just a captain. I said that the entire Bincheng has been occupied by strange things, and countless people have been tortured and killed by evil spirits in front of us invisible."
"Even if I were the captain, no one would believe me."
"I can say it today, but what about tomorrow? What about the day after tomorrow?"
Various plans were fighting in Lu Xin's mind, but at this moment it seemed like a dead end, every road leading to the destruction of the city.
Lu Xin paused, stopped, then raised her head and saw the building of the Bincheng Shangxian District Police Station.
A medal symbolizing honor and responsibility was posted on the wall. Lu Xin looked at the sign, breathed a sigh of relief, and then took another breath.
"Hey, Captain, why are you back at the police station so late?"
Along with the sound of cicadas, a familiar voice came from behind. Lu Xin turned around, and Li Que walked to Lu Xin holding a box of instant noodles.
"Why don't you go in? Or do you want to go home after get off work?"
"You're not being honest. Your team members haven't gotten off work yet, how can you back down? Come on, I'll make some bucket noodles for you."
Li Que patted the box and walked in front of Lu Xin. Lu Xin also walked into the police station with a complicated light flashing in his eyes.
Returning to the familiar crime squad office, Lu Xin sat in her seat. It was only one day, but it felt like a lifetime ago.
"Officer Lu!"
Li Que's voice startled Lu Xin. Seeing a messy head appear in front of Lu Xin's face, Lu Xin was startled for no reason and withdrew from her imagination.
It seemed like it was back to the time when they were investigating the case together.
But nothing can go back.
Lu Xin shook her head and comforted Li Que.
"What can I say? I have nothing to do... I'm just a little tired."
Li Que put down the cup of noodles, pulled up a chair, landed on the chair gorgeously, and slid all the way to Lu Xin.
Eyes facing each other, the two pairs of eyes fluctuated like autumn water.
"Why did you lie?"
"Don't you like your long hair best? Why do you want to cut your hair? There must be something wrong with you."
"What did you do today? What did you go through? What do you want to hide from me?"
"Do you remember our team's slogan?"
Lu Xin swallowed, she was stunned for a moment, and then smiled in relief, maybe it didn't matter, he would forget it tomorrow anyway.
"I haven't decided how to tell you yet."
"Let me tell you, I just experienced a strange incident. All the people in Bincheng fell. In my eyes, countless people were killing each other. People turned into dogs and turned into monsters. In order to understand This incident turned me into a victim, but no matter how I explained it, everyone would forget it the next day."
"Do you believe?"
Lu Xin smiled and scratched her head. It was a pity that she could not have long hair in the last moment of her life.
Li Que looked into Lu Xin's eyes with confusion, and then couldn't help but laugh. He waved his hand, then suppressed his laughter and said:
"I believe."
"ha?"
"I believe you, and I promise, whether you tell me today or tell me tomorrow, I will believe it."
Li Que still looked carefree, but in his eyes, Lu Xin saw a different feeling.
Li Que stopped laughing. He came closer, leaning forward, with distress in his eyes, and said one after another:
"I have received many such reports today, saying that I cannot understand their pain. Now with your explanation, I finally understand that my consciousness has been distorted."
"So you are also experiencing pain that I can't understand right now?"
Lu Xin's voice raised a level, her words were breathless, and sobs surged in her throat:
"It's useless if you realize it. You will be reset tomorrow and you won't remember anything... It will all be in vain!"
Li Que's eyes became serious, his voice became louder, and he retorted:
"How can it be in vain!"
"What you said does make sense. If you were the only one speaking, your words would most likely be ignored."
"But what if you add me?"
These words were like an anchor hanging down into the invisible deep sea, allowing Lu Xin's Ye Bianzhou to stabilize her figure.
But Lu Xin still couldn't accept it. She smiled and said with blurred tears:
"Are you kidding? This is asking for death, this is sending one's life..."
Li Que suddenly pressed forward. He was very close to Lu Xin. He opened his mouth and blurted out:
"But......!!"
The atmosphere solidified at this moment, and he seemed to want to say something. The autumn water in his eyes fluctuated again and again, but the words were stuck in his throat, like the letter he couldn't give when he was young, like the words he didn't dare to say when he graduated.
After a long time, Li Que put on his signature smile again. He sat back in his seat, keeping the appropriate distance, and finally got back to business.
"As long as we pass, we are not risking our lives."
"If one person can't prove it, then use two people. If two people can't prove it, then use ten people."
"The world here needs police, and the world over there needs order."
"The world on both sides needs our saving."
