"Hey! Something's off here, too off. Be careful, be very careful."

At this moment, Black Tortoise, who had been silent all along, suddenly warned Yang Yan through transmission.

"I know. But do you know where this place is connected to by that guy? I feel the blood smell in the air is somewhat strange!"

Yang Yan asked calmly.

"Who are you talking to? What's wrong here? Is there something amiss?"

Xia Bing gently furrowed her brows.

Yang Yan turned his head to glance at Xia Bing, only to see that the emblem on Xia Bing's police cap had begun to rust.

As for the emblem on her uniform, it was so rusty it was about to fall off.

However, Xia Bing didn't notice any of these changes at all.

"Is there something wrong with me?"

Noticing Yang Yan's gaze, Xia Bing couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

But soon her eyes fell on her police emblem.

Seeing the emblem so rusted it was about to fall off, Xia Bing froze directly.

She was stunned for a full five seconds before mechanically lifting her head and stammering:

"How... how could this happen?"

"Corroded by the aura here, it's only like this because Huaxia is currently prosperous. In a less fortunate country, this emblem would have been completely corroded."

"But it doesn't matter, it will return to normal once we're out, this happens because the area is isolated by the other party."

Speaking of which, Yang Yan frowned and thought for a while before continuing:

"The upcoming events may be very bloody, make sure you're psychologically prepared."

Hearing Yang Yan speak like this, Xia Bing instinctively swallowed hard and nodded heavily.

"Let's go!"

Coming here, Yang Yan could locate the crime scene without Xia Bing's direction.

The intense blood smell in the air couldn't be hidden.

Just follow the scent.

Rooms in Sunshine Garden are numbered, and this family's door number is 401.

Yang Yan glanced at the door number and couldn't help but smile wryly.

This family is truly unafraid!

"Ready? We're going in."

Yang Yan quietly reminded the somewhat trembling Xia Bing.

"Mm!"

Xia Bing was very tense now, her hand holding the gun was already wet with sweat.

Yang Yan smiled, then directly kicked the door.

Yang Yan's kick was so powerful that the door, covered in seals, was kicked open.

The room maintained the state it was in at the time of the crime, with blood stains on the walls and floor.

When Yang Yan and Xia Bing's gaze fell on the living room, a hissing sound suddenly came from the bedroom.

Hearing the eerie noise, Xia Bing's nerves tightened instantly.

She glanced at Yang Yan with a pale face.

Yang Yan squinted and then headed towards the bedroom first.

"What's inside?"

Xia Bing followed closely behind, trembling as she spoke.

Yang Yan didn't answer Xia Bing. The bedroom was filled with heavy Yin Qi.

Though he didn't know what was inside, it certainly wasn't human.

Yang Yan slowly approached the doorway, then reached out to open the door.

The lights in the room were off, and the visibility was low, but it was still possible to see something squatting and eating something.

The hissing sound was coming from this thing.

Xia Bing nervously pointed her gun at the shadow in front.

Yang Yan didn't stop her; he slowly reached for the light switch.

As soon as the light flashed on, Xia Bing let out a scream.

In front weren't just things, but the human skins of the victims.

Due to unclear vision before, only one was seen, now there were four.

They were squatting there, eating something unknown.

Unable to bear it, Xia Bing screamed, and fired three shots following the screech.

The skins fell as the shots reverberated.

Seeing this, Yang Yan directly went to Xia Bing and pulled her, saying:

"Quick, let's go. Guns are useless against them."

The two hurriedly exited the room.

On their way out, Yang Yan didn't forget to slam the door shut.

Outside, Xia Bing was gasping heavily.

This scene was indeed too stimulating for her.

Even though she had previously witnessed supernatural phenomena, she was still frightened by what just happened.

"Why are the skins here, the coroner should've taken them back!"

Xia Bing quickly regained her senses and muttered, seemingly to herself.

"I might know what the killer is this time. If I'm right, they should be on the rooftop."

Yang Yan spoke coldly.

"What is it?"

Xia Bing looked curiously at Yang Yan.

"It should be a person's Evil Thought Body, but we need to go up to confirm. If it really is their Evil Thought Body, then many things make sense."

Yang Yan said coldly.

"What is an Evil Thought Body? Also, what about here when we go up? Will the things inside come out?"

Xia Bing asked worriedly.

The thought of the skins reviving made her feel cold inside.

"These things can't come out, the question is whether the others have arrived."

Yang Yan smiled bitterly.

"Others?"

Xia Bing paused, then immediately understood.

"You mean there are more skins?"

Yang Yan nodded gently:

"Mm! Seems like it. These creatures lingered here because this was their death place."

"But the others might be different. Anyway, stay as cautious as possible!"

Yang Yan finished speaking and pushed open the entryway to leave.

"Where are we going now?"

Xia Bing followed closely behind Yang Yan.

"To the rooftop, of course. There's no point doing anything else without dealing with the guy up there."

Yang Yan spoke coldly.

"Will what we're doing disturb the residents here? More importantly, will they be collateral damage?"

Xia Bing voiced her concerns.

Such a situation is hard for ordinary people to handle, even for Xia Bing who was mentally prepared.

Critical is the potential harm to others as a result of this incident.

"Don't worry, the beads placed by those officers restrict humans. As long as they are in this area, they won't wake up no matter what. You're an exception."

Yang Yan laughed as he spoke.

Hearing Yang Yan's words, Xia Bing felt relieved.

Looking at the dark stairwell corridor, Xia Bing's heart filled with anxiety once more.

She now needed to worry about herself.

"Why are the stair lights all broken here; does the management not care at all?"

Xia Bing complained.
