C107 Shadow

The headless body could not break free from the rope for a while, but it was only a matter of time. So I should be dead soon.

I stood in front of the corpse, my mind racing as I tried to think of a way to survive.

There's the Lady Boss guarding the door. Judging from her previous vicious attitude, even if I force my way out, there's only death waiting for me. Should I stay in the house? If the headless body wants to borrow my head, I'll fight it out with him.

However … But so what if I fought? Would the Lady Boss let me go after I cut the headless body into eight pieces?

With that in mind, I looked towards the door just in time to see the Lady Boss watching me through the crack in the door and giving me a cold smile.

It was then that I heard a dull thump beside me, and when I looked back, I saw that the body had broken the rope.

I panicked and quickly took a step back. The body followed me by a step. He seemed to have been tied up for too long. His hands and feet seemed to be lacking in agility and he was swaying, as if he would fall down at any moment.

Unfortunately, he didn't fall from the sky. Moreover, after taking a few steps, his movements became faster and faster.

I ducked into the corner, and the body followed.

I moved slowly along the corner, but the corpse sensed my position and pointed at my head with its hands outstretched.

I braced myself and said, "Brother, did you recognize the wrong person?"

Before he could finish his sentence, the corpse suddenly rushed forward. It was as fast as a bolt of lightning, and I had no time to react at all.

I heard a crack in my ear. Something had broken. My heart sank, and my whole body went numb with fear.

I didn't feel any pain. Don't you feel pain when your head falls off? I shook my head slightly, and it seemed to me that my head was still there. I reached out and touched it. It was still there.

The feeling of having survived a disaster made me want to fall to the ground and catch my breath.

But I didn't let down my guard because the headless body was still beside me. I saw his hands plunge into the wall behind him, and that was how the crack came.

He was currently using all his might to tear off a piece of the wall and place it on his shoulder.

I thought to myself: If he doesn't want such a good head like me, why would he want a piece of the wall? This corpse had lost its head. Even its brain had disappeared.

The corpse ruthlessly smashed the wall skin on his shoulder, causing it to shatter. The body froze for a moment, then suddenly moved toward me again, and he pushed me against the wall, pressing me closer and closer, as if he were trying to press me into a thin sheet against the wall.

My chest felt stuffy and my ribs hurt more and more. If I kept pressing down like this, my bones might break.

I shouted loudly and used all of my might to push the corpse away. He swayed his body due to my push, and I took advantage of this opportunity to quickly escape from the corner of the wall.

I didn't dare go out of the room. This corpse's behavior is very strange, do you want to borrow my head? I have to find out. If I go out now, the Lady Boss might come back with a suspect, so I'm dead for sure.

I walked around the house twice and gradually found a problem. The body didn't hurt me again. He followed me at a distance. I move forward, he moves forward, I move backwards, and he moves backwards. As if he were my shadow.

I stopped, and so did the body. I stared at it for a long time. Suddenly, a thought struck me. I understand.

He was like an old monk who had been deep in thought for many years, suddenly enlightened one day. All the problems were suddenly enlightened, and they were easily solved.

So I went to the door.

The Lady Boss's eyes were still frighteningly cold. She indifferently said, "It seems like the corpse wants your head, but it didn't succeed."

I shook my head. "He doesn't want my head."

The Lady Boss pointed behind me and said, "I don't want your head. Why do I keep following you?"

I said to the Lady Boss, "Can you let me speak?"

The Lady Boss hesitated for a moment before she tore the wooden stick. I got out of that hole. The corpse came out right after.

Xia Xin glanced at the two of us, then suddenly said, "I understand."

Mr. Zhao also nodded, "I understand as well."

Only the Lady Boss didn't understand. She angrily shouted, "You don't have to play tricks here. There are so many people here, yet the corpse follows him. Do you dare to say that he has no problems? "

"It's not me, it's my shadow," I said.

The Lady Boss was stunned. She examined the corpse for the first time and also carefully observed my figure.

My shadow landed on the body. Or in other words, the body always stood right behind me, letting its shadow fall on him.

It wasn't my head he wanted, it was Shadow's head.

I took a deep breath and said to the Lady Boss, "I'm the accomplice. My shadow should belong to my so-called master. That man is your enemy. "

The Lady Boss said, "You are his accomplice, and you are not a good person. If I kill you, you won't feel wronged either. "

I now feel that the Lady Boss's chest is a little big and brainless, no no no, a little lacking in IQ, it's not compatible with her face. Perhaps living in hatred all year round had made him lose his mind.

I didn't tell her that I was a good person, that I had never done anything bad in my life, that I had even won a prize from one of the top three students. There was no point in saying this, she didn't believe it at all.

I directly said, "It doesn't matter if I'm a good person or not. If you kill me, you won't be able to find your enemy."

The Lady Boss said, "Before I kill you, I have a hundred ways to torture you. You will definitely tell me and let me give you a quick death."

I sold the knowledge I had gathered from the ancient head, and said, "I am a living person. It was like a time bomb. Usually, everything was normal. Only when it erupted would it be able to change everything. I do have a connection with that person, but it's not time yet. I don't even know where he is. He can't control me. "

The Lady Boss obviously knew of this logic, she paced around the Inside the house irritably. After a while, she asked me, "If that person shows up, will you let me know?"

I slapped my thigh and replied, "Of course I'm willing. I can't wait any longer." Which living person would be willing to be the accomplice of another? When he appears, all his enemies will be my friends. "

The Lady Boss slowly nodded. "When he's about to appear, you have to notify me. Otherwise, I will kill you. "

I nodded my head as though I was pounding garlic. "Of course, of course."

Mr. Zhao stood at the side with his arms crossed, his face full of curiosity: "Boss, I've always heard that you have enemies, but I have never heard of their names or origins, can you tell me?"

The Lady Boss indifferently said, "I wonder how many lives he has lived. The name and age have changed, so it's useless to say it. "

The Mr. Zhao asked curiously: "Then how did you recognize your enemy? Can you teach us? Later on, when we find that person, it'll be easier to prepare in advance. "

The Lady Boss said, "I am the only one who can use this method. You all don't need to learn it."

Mr. Zhao scratched his head: "Then what enmity do you have with this person? Can you tell us?"

The Lady Boss suddenly became angry. "Why should I tell you? Do you want to reopen the scar to satisfy your curiosity? "

She was so overbearing that Mr. Zhao had no choice but to take a step back with a dry smile on his face.

At this time, someone downstairs suddenly muttered, "Where's the Lady Boss?" This noodle house isn't open anymore? "

The Lady Boss's eyebrows twitched. "Another guest has come?" I want to see if it's that person. "

Then she hurried downstairs. I thought to myself: What kind of method is she using to find that person year after year?

Xia Xin, Mr. Zhao and I are the only ones left upstairs. I said to them, "Thank you. If it wasn't for you all stopping me, I would be dead today. "

Mr. Zhao and I had our arms around each other's shoulders. "I'm your second uncle. Oh right, Eldest Nephew, how much do you think your life is worth? "

I don't know how he managed to put these two jumbled sentences together. I casually said, "It should at least be worth tens of thousands of yuan, right?"

The Mr. Zhao said, "Then let's calculate it based on fifty thousand. I saved your life today, so you owe me 50,000 yuan. Adding the 20,000 yuan from before, my total is 70,000 yuan. "

I gave him a glance and said with a fake smile, "Alright, 70,000 will be it."

In any case, I don't have any. What's the difference between twenty and seventy thousand? I've reached the stage where I'm not afraid of boiling water.

We sauntered downstairs and caught a glimpse of the new diners. The three of us were stunned, as was the customer.

After that, we rumbled down the stairs and blocked the door at the same time, so that he wouldn't run away.

That customer was Grandpa Gu.

Grandpa Gu held a pair of chopsticks in his hand, as if he was about to eat some noodles. When he saw the three of us, he looked surprised.

After a long while, Grandpa Gu put his face down and smiled dryly at me, "Young one, you're here too."

I replied, "I think you should ask: Are you still here?"

Grandpa Gu pretended to be confused.

I said to him, "You intentionally tricked me into coming to this damned place?"

Grandpa Gu shook his head with all his might: "No, no, that's not possible. We are in a cooperative relationship, it's fine. Why would I lie to you? "

I said to ancient head, "You should have come to this noodle house before, and knew that the Lady Boss was looking for your enemy. Then you stumbled upon the shadow behind me. It could have been that person. So you tricked me to show it to the Lady Boss. "You know how much the Lady Boss hates that person. After seeing me, she will not hesitate to help me, so I will die."

"Xia Xin and my second uncle are definitely with me. They won't just stand by and watch, and in the end, they will also be killed by the Lady Boss. Is this your plan? "

Grandpa Gu quietly wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead. "Don't slander me. I'm fine. Why would I kill you?"

I said, "If you kill us, that fan will be yours, and Xia Xin's price will fall into your hands. Find another chance to kill A Chang. Tsk tsk tsk, this plan is pretty good. "
