1. Invisible tentacles
The huge silver-white moon wheel was shyly hiding on the top of the city.
The moonlight is like a searchlight, with black smoke emitting between the tall buildings, like black ash floating in the air after burning paper, and a faint smell of sulfur in the air - the whole city is indescribable strange.
"Doctor Zhai, I suspect that... there has been a distortion on my body."
A middle-aged man shrank in an old clinic. He was tall and looked like a mountain of flesh even when he was shrank there. His fat belly was surrounded by blood-stained apron, with a violent and exhausted expression, and his eyes were covered with bloodshot and a hint of nerves.
——This is the first patient since Zhai Nan became a psychological counseling tutor.
Zhai Nan sat opposite and soaked wolfberry in a thermos cup.
He is obviously a young doctor, but his posture and movements are like an old genius.
He has been traveling here for more than ten years.
This world is not normal.
...or, at least in his eyes, it was abnormal.
Since when many monsters have appeared in this world.
All kinds of distorted monsters run in the polluted and abandoned wilderness. They are like nuclear pollution, soaking the world, and people living in this world. When polluted, people will go crazy in their spirits, their bodies will become distorted... They will become deformed and weird, and even turn into monsters.
Zhai Nan's job is to guide people whose mental distortions begin to change and monitor people who may become monsters.
Every neighborhood has such psychological counselors... They should be considered the lowest-level civil servants in the world.
...
"So Butcher Lee...what happened to you?"
Zhai Nan sat on the rocking chair, took a big sip of wolfberry water from the thermos cup, and then spit out a few tea leaves, then creaked the rocking chair.
Butcher Li is a meat maker in the vegetable market next door. His pork is very tender and the lard is very white, which Zhai Nan likes very much.
Amid such mechanical and harsh sounds of rocking chairs, Butcher Li's expression became even more cramped.
"I'm going to distort...distort..."
He repeated in a daze, his eyes widened, and the dense bloodshots on it showed a fury dark red. His huge and plump body was drifting violently. The blood on his apron flashed and darkened under the light, which looked quite terrifying.
"When I brushed my teeth this morning...my wife called me in the kitchen and asked me how many pieces of tenderloin we would cut today."
"When I turned my head and answered her...I saw... there was a back of my head in the mirror..."
Butcher Li's eyes became wider and wider, and more bloodshots were flowing around the whites of his eyes, looking violent and neurotic.
He was scared and frightened.
"actually……"
Zhai Nan calmly covered the lid of the thermos cup, and the rocking chair was still creaking, "When you turn your head, it is normal for you to look at the back of your head in the mirror. This is not a distortion..."
"wrong!"
Butcher Li interrupted Zhai Nan's words angrily, so that saliva sprayed out of his thick lips, and his whole body trembled in furious and horror, "I turned my back to the mirror at that time, it was impossible... to see the back of my own head in the mirror!"
The room was quiet.
Butcher Li's apron covered in blood on his belly was shining.
The creaking sound of the rocking chair stopped.
...
"I'm sorry, you continue."
Zhai Nan lowered his head and took another sip of wolfberry water.
Zhai Nan was about to push away Butcher Li's hair.
However, he suddenly saw,
Butcher Li's scalp suddenly cracked and a blood-red eyeball was opened.
The eyes were spinning wildly and strangely, as if they could not control or touch them.
Finally, his eyes were frozen on Zhai Nan.
At the same time, Butcher Li in front of him stiffened a little.
"I...I saw..."
"you……"
Butcher Li suddenly shut up.
The huge fear slid into his throat like a cold hand, clutching his heart tightly.
"What's wrong?"
Zhai Nan asked.
Butcher Li didn't say anything.
He dared not speak.
He can see behind it.
And in this perspective,
Zhai Nan's chest was torn to his belly, and a huge crack was torn from top to bottom.
On that crack, dense and terrifying fangs grew.
Two thick and bright red tentacles were spreading out from the crack, wandering in the air like a python. At the tip of the tentacles were straw-shaped mouthpieces with two small fangs.
These two mouthparts,
Now aiming at myself.
Then, Butcher Li saw a thoughtful expression on Zhai Nan's face.
"But Li..."
"Can you see it?"
