Chapter 1379 The infection spreads (this cat is rolling around on the bed)

"I...I'm not dreaming, am I?"

The idol detective was still a detective after all, and did not faint directly like the victim, but even so, she stood beside Duanmu Huai, staring uneasily at the pile of human skins on the ground in front of her, with a look of disbelief on her face. .

"Do you think you're dreaming?"

"Frankly speaking, I would rather think that I was dreaming. What was that just now?"

"It's not important. What's important is that we have to go back!"

"Go back? Ah...that's right!"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, the idol detective was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that the food detective went to the boy's home to investigate. And now the boy has turned into this... I don't know what kind of monster he is, but what about his family?

"Shouldn't we call the police?"

"Are you serious?"

Duanmuhuai bent down, picked up the human skin and stuffed it into a random pocket. At the same time, he looked at the idol detective as if he were a fool. The latter was stunned for a moment and spread his hands helplessly.

"I'm just saying it."

The idol detective is not stupid. Now she knows that the police station in this city is as penetrated as a sieve, so if she goes to the police to call the police, she is simply throwing herself into a trap.

"So what does she do?"

"Just stay here. When she wakes up, she will probably just think she had a nightmare."

"That's fine."

The idol detective glanced at the unconscious girl who had fallen on the ground with a complicated expression, but didn't say anything more and just sighed. Then he and Duanmu Huai left the alley.

"Buzz... buzz..."

There was a noisy sound in his ears. The food detective slowly opened his eyes and looked at the dim ceiling in front of him. He couldn't figure out what happened to him for a while.

"Ugh...what happened..."

The food detective shook his head and began to remember desperately. I remember that after that, I went to the boy's home with the girl with glasses and met his parents. I pretended to be a school teacher and came to visit my home, then drank tea and chatted, and then... Wow, damn, what on earth is going on?

The food detective also came to his senses at this time. He wanted to get up, but found that he was **** at the moment. At the same time, a dull voice sounded from not far away. The food detective subconsciously turned his head to look, and then his eyes widened in surprise.

What the **** is going on?

Looking at the scene in front of him, the food detective was stunned for a moment. Not far from him, he saw two twisted, weird objects entangled together. Their bodies looked like humans, but they were not human at all. Thick, huge tentacles came out of the mouths of these two monsters, and their limbs turned into shapes like soft squids. Between the two monsters, the girl with glasses has been entangled in layers of tentacles. The sailor uniform on her body had been torn into pieces, and her fair skin was entangled with ugly tentacles that looked like filthy condensation.

At this moment, the girl with glasses was rolled up by the tentacles and floated in the air, her head tilted back, her eyes dull. The petite body couldn't help but tremble with the movements of the tentacles. But it wasn't like a resistance, it was more like the body's natural reaction when it was invaded by a foreign object.

The girl with glasses in front of her was like a doll that had completely lost its self-awareness and could only be at the mercy of others.

"You, what are you doing! Let her go quickly!"

Seeing this scene, the food detective suddenly felt angry. The anger overwhelmed the unspeakable fear, causing him to stare at the two monsters and yell at them. When they heard the roar of the food detective, the two monsters paused for a moment, then turned their heads and looked towards the food detective.

"Woo..."

Although before that, the food detective's anger overshadowed his fear, but when these two monsters that looked like humans but were not human turned their attention to him, the instinctive fear suddenly made the food detective involuntarily close his mouth. . It was as if he were facing two ferocious and furious beasts. Even the slightest sound would stimulate the other party to attack.

"…………"

The two monsters didn't speak, but their tentacles turned around and probed towards the food detective.

"Ugh...damn it!"

Seeing the sticky, smooth tentacles coming towards him, the food detective's face tightened, and he struggled desperately to break free. However, his body was tightly tied to the chair, and there was no way to break free. At this moment, the food detective saw one of the monster's tentacles swing towards him like a whip, and then hit him directly!

This blow made the food detective feel as if he was hit head-on by a truck. He flew backwards, hit the wall and collapsed to the ground. He could only watch helplessly as the tentacles reached towards him - as if they were aware of the fear and despair in the food detective's heart, the two monsters let out a hissing, weird and distorted laugh. The only thing the food detective could do at this moment was to open his eyes wide, grit his teeth, and stare at the tentacles exuding a foul smell - that was his last bit of stubbornness as a human being.

However, just when the food detective was about to despair, suddenly there was a loud "dong" sound outside, which not only surprised the food detective, but even the two monsters stopped what they were doing, surprised. Turn around and look. Immediately afterwards, a huge figure like a beast appeared from the corridor, roaring and pounced on the two strange monsters!

That was none other than Duanmu Huai!

"Hi ha——!"

Seeing the appearance of Duanmu Huai, the two tentacle monsters also let out an angry roar. They quickly waved their tentacles and hit Duanmu Huai.

"Go to hell!"

Facing the tentacles that were enough to knock the gourmet detective away, Duanmu Huai didn't care at all. He stretched out his hand to grab the tentacles that were coming, and with a strong tug, he directly dragged the two monsters to the ground. Then lift up your feet and step on them hard!

"Pfft!"

The next moment, the two monsters were trampled to pieces by Duanmuhuai, and then disappeared into the shadows on the ground.

"…………"

Seeing this scene, the food detective was completely stunned. He stared blankly at the scene in front of him, only wondering if he was dreaming.

"Are you okay?"

At this moment, the idol detective hurried over and helped the gourmet detective up, and then the gourmet detective seemed to have come back to his senses.

After that, the situation came to an end.

The two monsters were completely eliminated by Duanmuhuai. On the ground, Duanmuhuai found two broken human skins. Although I don’t know who it is, it seems to be the boy’s parents.

As for the girl with glasses...

"It's really troublesome."

Looking at the girl lying on the bed in front of him, completely unconscious like a doll, Duanmu Huai helplessly stretched out his hand and scratched his head. Duanmuhuai has already obtained the results of her situation through detection. It can be said that the SAN value has been cleared, he has completely lost his self-awareness, and is basically no different from a madman.

I have no choice but to try that trick.

Duanmu Huai looked around, and he was currently in the bedroom on the second floor. Duanmu Huai just told the two of them that he wanted to save the girl with glasses, so he brought her over. And the idol detective was bandaging up the gourmet detective down below. If he had rough skin and thick flesh, it would be fine even if he was beaten like this. But if he were a skinny guy, his ribs might be broken in an instant.

It seems that fat is indeed beneficial.

As for the girl in front of me...

Duanmu Huai stretched out his hand, and with a "click" flash of light appeared, and in the shadow beside Duanmu Huai, the figure of a girl appeared. "Owner."

"She has nothing to do, so you can take her place."

Duanmuhuai looked at the girl with glasses who had completely lost consciousness in front of him and said coldly. After the shadow is created, as long as the shadow kills the main body, she can replace the main body and become herself. Duanmu Huai has never used this ability before, but now it seems that there is no other solution.

After hearing Duanmuhuai's order, Shadow lowered his head.

"yes."

"That's up to you."

After saying this, Duanmu Huai turned around and left, leaving his shadow in the bedroom.

When Duanmu Huai came to the living room on the first floor, the idol detective had already finished communicating with the food detective. Seeing Duanmu Huai appear, the food detective hurriedly stood up.

"How about the kid?"

"It's okay, just let her rest."

Duanmuhuai glanced at the stairs silently, and then answered.

"Yeah...that's good."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, the food detective breathed a sigh of relief, then sat down on the sofa again, holding his head tightly with both hands.

"Is this true? Although I don't want to say it, I must have taken some drugs and hallucinated."

"You may have taken medicine, but I definitely didn't take medicine."

The idol detective looked at the two tattered human skins in front of him with a pale face, and at the same time he did not forget to complain about the gourmet detective.

"I'll see if you dare to eat casually from now on."

"…………"

Faced with the idol detective's complaints, the gourmet detective also lowered his head. Strictly speaking, it was true that he was not vigilant, otherwise he would not have been overturned by the other party's medicine.

"Speaking of which, what on earth is that? It should be...a monster, right? Isn't it a ghost or something?"

As he spoke, the idol detective also showed a fearful expression.

It seems that she is the type who is not afraid of monsters or ghosts.

"That's a shoggoth."

Duanmuhuai was not interested in pretending to be the Riddler here and gave the answer directly.

"That's a very ancient creature. I didn't expect them to appear here."

"Hey? Do you know what that monster is?"

"certainly."

Faced with the idol detective's inquiry, Duanmuhuai shrugged his shoulders.

"Dealing with these monsters is my main job. Solving any murder cases is incidental. In other words, if the murder cases were not caused by these monsters, I would be too lazy to take care of them."

"So, there really is such a monster in this world...Forget it, it's useless to talk about it now."

The food detective took a breath and came to his senses. The idol detective frowned, looking uneasy.

"Things are not that simple, or in other words, things are worse than we imagined!"

"Yeah?"

"That's right."

Facing the food detective's inquiry, the idol detective nodded, and then explained to the food detective what she and Duanmu Huai had seen at the KTV.

"Now we can almost know why the boy ran back in panic that day. It was obvious that he went to the party and made friends with the girl opposite. Just when the two were planning to make out in private, the girl tried to use This is a way to infect young people.”

"That's why the boy ran to his childhood sweetheart's home in panic...it turned out to be this reason."

The food detective also nodded, straightened out his thoughts, and then his expression changed slightly.

"Wait a minute, so what happened when he suddenly went crazy in school the next day? Could it be that he discovered that there was also..."

At this point, the food detective and the idol detective looked at each other in horror. They might understand why the boy went crazy!

To be fair, if they encountered this kind of thing themselves, they would definitely want to go to a crowded place to be safe. After all, as of now, this kind of monster will only attack others in places with few people, but not in places with many people. Therefore, it is safer to stay with a group of people than to stay alone.

But what if he finds that the entire class has turned into that kind of monster and he is the only one who remains the same?

"No, it won't, right?"

The food detective swallowed.

"Maybe he just had a nightmare because he was overly frightened..."

"But if that's the case, why do the classmates over there say it is..."

"Okay, it's useless for you to speculate here about whether these things are there or not."

Duanmuhuai interrupted the two detectives' reasoning to scare themselves.

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cubs. Let's just go to the real owner and find out what's going on!"

"The rightful owner?"

"Go to the mental hospital, now!"

Duanmu Huai gave the answer directly.

"There must be something wrong with that place!"
