Chapter 17 The Next One
When the bloated hand grabbed Ke Wen’s shoulder, his heart couldn’t help but tremble.
Even more deadly… he couldn’t move.
He could only let the fear in his heart devour him bit by bit.
His hands also began to reach towards his chest involuntarily, as if to grope for something.
“Bang!”
But at this moment, the loud noise of the fire axe shattering the glass tore through the dead silence in the office.
Liu Haoyu kicked open the twisted window frame and leaped into the room, and behind him, there were three consecutive gunshots.
“Bang bang bang!”
Three bullets hit the shadow wearing a police uniform directly.
Sticky transparent liquid splashed out from the wound, but the three hastily fired bullets did not hit the vital point… or rather, did this thing even have a vital point?
“Roar…”
The monster let out a low roar, then passed through the wall and disappeared in front of the three of them.
“He ran away, damn it.”
Liu Haoyu did not expect that the other party would run away so decisively. This rational appearance did not seem like a ghost.
“Let’s go see how Officer Ke Wen is doing.”
Wang Wenqi ran ahead to Ke Wen, he reached out and placed his hand on his shoulder, shaking him and saying.
“Captain Ke? Captain Ke!”
However, no matter how Wang Wenqi shook Ke Wen, the other party did not move at all, not even blinking his eyes.
Liu Haoyu walked in front of Ke Wen and waved his hand in front of his eyes, but there was still no reaction, just like a soulless puppet.
But as a ghost exorcist, Liu Haoyu knew what had happened to Ke Wen.
Lost soul.
In other words, he was now just a body without a soul, and naturally wouldn’t react.
Thinking of this, Liu Haoyu took out a calming talisman from his pocket and tried to stuff it into Ke Wen’s mouth.
However, when the talisman approached, Ke Wen’s body suddenly flashed to the side, and his head slowly turned. His movements were like a robot that hadn’t been lubricated for a long time.
When his gaze fell on Qin Liu, a sinister and weird smile suddenly appeared on his face.
Under the illumination of the flashlight, Ke Wen’s smile made people shudder.
“Hahaha… Hahaha!!”
The manic, sinister laughter instantly made Liu Haoyu’s heart sink.
He pulled Wang Wenqi and immediately retreated.
The second Wang Wenqi retreated, Ke Wen’s hand grabbed over like a blur, but fortunately Wang Wenqi was no longer there, and he grabbed nothing.
This Ke Wen… is not right.
Liu Haoyu tightened his grip on the fire axe and looked at the other party vigilantly.
Wang Wenqi also broke out in a cold sweat behind him.
Judging by the speed of Ke Wen’s arm just now, if he had been grabbed once, he might have been able to tear off a piece of flesh.
Seeing that the attack missed, Ke Wen’s face still maintained that sinister and weird smile.
Wang Wenqi, being stared at by the other party, inexplicably felt a chill.
His face stiffened, and he took half a step back, subconsciously raising his handgun and aiming it at Ke Wen’s head.
Having worked in the Special Task Force for so many years, he knew that Ke Wen was likely beyond saving now.
The light of the tactical flashlight illuminated Ke Wen’s face, making it pale.
Under their gaze, this police officer suddenly moved.
But he did not attack Liu Haoyu and Wang Wenqi. His hands were plunged fiercely into his chest, and then he waved them frantically, splashing blood everywhere.
Ribs, lungs, flesh, all were dug out by him, and soon only a pumping heart was left inside.
Ke Wen held the heart in his hands as if he had obtained a treasure, and lifted it up.
Looking at the bloody scene before him, even a police officer like Wang Wenqi felt a little nauseous.
“Hahahaha!!!”
Ke Wen held the heart. Although his lungs had been dug out, he still let out a strange and manic laugh.
That sound was like a baby crying in the middle of the night, or like gusts of cold wind whistling by.
And amidst this maniacal laughter, Liu Haoyu clearly saw that a symbol like an eye appeared on Ke Wen’s chest.
This symbol trembled with Ke Wen’s laughter, and seemed to possess an inexplicable attraction, as if it could suck their souls in.
“Act!”
Liu Haoyu did not dare to neglect and immediately said to Wang Wenqi.
“Don’t hesitate anymore!”
Hearing Liu Haoyu’s words, Wang Wenqi finally came back to his senses. He raised his handgun and fired two shots at Ke Wen.
“Bang bang!”
However, even shooting at such close range, they still didn’t hit Ke Wen. He twisted the two bullets in an extremely strange posture, then leaped up and lunged at them.
His speed was very fast, just like a hunting leopard, but Liu Haoyu’s speed was not inferior.
When Ke Wen attacked, the fire axe in his hand chopped towards the other’s head.
Following the sound of the axe blade hitting bone, a large gash was split open in Ke Wen’s head, and yellow-white matter kept leaking out of the wound.
“Puchi…”
Liu Haoyu pulled out the axe and kicked Ke Wen away.
The corpse fell to the ground powerlessly, like a slack puppet.
But even so, his eyes, still staring at the two of them with unclosed eyes, his lips slightly parted, making a hissing sound like a leaking balloon.
“Next one…”
“Next one…”
“It’s you…”
After saying that, his eyes completely became unfocused. It seemed like he was dead… right?
Liu Haoyu shook his head.
Ke Wen had died from extreme fear, and judging from the symbol in his chest, he should have also turned into a mirror ghost.
He was probably hiding in the dark now, waiting for an opportunity, ready to attack the two of them at any time.
It was precisely because of this that Liu Haoyu did not dare to be careless, and said to Wang Wenqi beside him.
“Ke Wen has probably turned into a mirror ghost too, be careful.”
“…Let’s withdraw from here first.”
Because he couldn’t save the person, and the other party was his colleague, Wang Wenqi was in a very low mood.
Moreover, Ke Wen’s death reminded him of another deceased colleague from months ago – Li Rongjun.
“Okay.”
Liu Haoyu saw that Wang Wenqi was a bit down and did not intend to continue searching for Ke Wen’s whereabouts here.
Their purpose for coming here was to save someone. Now, instead of saving someone, they might lose themselves.
The two of them successfully came outside the supermarket.
Wang Wenqi sat on the steps by the roadside, looking a bit dejected.
Witnessing the death of his colleague with his own eyes was very difficult for anyone to bear.
As a result, Wang Wenqi couldn’t help but mutter to himself.
“I can’t do anything…”
Liu Haoyu looked at Wang Wenqi’s face, and remembered the things he had experienced. He took out a pack of cigarettes and offered it to him, saying.
“Want one?”
