2: Chapter 1 Black Shadow_2 2: Chapter 1 Black Shadow_2 However, Li Yelai knew that the journey wouldn’t be smooth.
Because whenever he had that strange dream, his luck would turn bad for a while.
This was the main reason he believed that Black Shadow truly existed.
I an, what kind of ntal illness brings about such bad luck?
Now, after leaving his apartnt, he must be cautious of the misfortune that could befall him on the streets at any ti.
However, just as he stepped out of his apartnt, he heard a shout.
“Xiao Ye.”
Li Yelai turned around and saw a middle-aged man with greying temples, dressed in a suit, waving at him not far away.
That was Doctor Wang from the clinic he often visited.
They were quite familiar with each other.
“I was just about to co up and find you,” Doctor Wang said with a kindly smile as he approached.
Li Yelai inexplicably felt a sense of strangeness and discomfort.
But he still responded, “Doctor Wang, I had that strange dream again.”
“That’s exactly why I was looking for you,” Doctor Wang replied with a friendly smile.
“Shall we go upstairs to talk?”
The sense of discomfort that Li Yelai felt grew stronger, and he had a feeling that he didn’t want to or, more precisely, dared not let Doctor Wang enter his ho.
So, he said, “Let’s talk at the hospital instead.”
Doctor Wang paused, then said with a smile, “That works, I drove here.”
Drive?
Li Yelai managed a forced smile and nodded.
Subsequently, the two of them got into a black sedan and left the apartnt.
The trip was silent except for the sound of the car’s radio broadcasting.
‘A heinous criminal case occurred yesterday in the Old City District of No.3 Border City, and the perpetrator is still at large.
Any citizens with information are encouraged to call…’
Listening to the radio broadcast, Li Yelai in the backseat clutched his backpack tightly and watched Doctor Wang, who was driving.
However, Li Yelai was quietly dialing the number he had just heard.
When the car suddenly entered a private underground garage, a sense of unease in Li Yelai’s heart grew stronger.
Therefore, Li Yelai, who had turned pale, spoke up, “Is Doctor Wang…
still alive?”
The middle-aged man driving paused, but instead of turning around, he spoke calmly, “You actually noticed?
Even though the voice, appearance, and stature haven’t changed at all…
How did you figure it out?”
He was a bit surprised, but not overly so, the surprise was overshadowed by mockery and malice.
Yes, the sense of discomfort and unease indeed stemd from this ‘Doctor Wang’ himself; he was not Doctor Wang at all!
Could it be soone impersonating Doctor Wang to approach him and his sister?
And to mimic so closely?
Upon realizing this, Li Yelai dared not let him stay near the apartnt anymore.
That was the reason Li Yelai had agreed to get in his car; he could not let his sister, who was still in the apartnt, face danger.
And in the mont the middle-aged man admitted it, a huge wave of fear spread through Li Yelai’s body, making him feel weak.
It seed like he had really gotten involved in so sort of terrible incident.
“Why are you looking for ?” Li Yelai asked, clutching his backpack tightly, his voice trembling.
“I’m being closely pursued and need a new skin and identity; your skin just happens to be quite nice,” the middle-aged man said, turning his head towards Li Yelai and smiling coldly.
“But you know I’m not Doctor Wang, so why did you dare get in the car with ?”
Skin?
Identity?
Li Yelai’s body trembled even more; what kind of weirdness was this?
Was it really monsters that peeled off others’ skins and took their places in this world?
But driven by fear, he quickly reached out to unbuckle ‘Doctor Wang’s’ seatbelt, gritting his teeth and saying, “No, it should be, why did you dare let get in the car?”
The middle-aged man was taken aback, and the next instant, he found the brakes were not working.
He instinctively tried to turn the steering wheel, only to pull it right off.
Under the middle-aged man’s shocked and horrified gaze, the car instantly lost control and crashed rapidly into the garage wall.
Yes, this was Li Yelai’s ‘bad luck,’ the adverse effect brought by the nightmare!
The specific effect…
Anyway, the last ti, after having the nightmare, he insisted on going to work.
As a result, just after getting on the bus and not even past one stop, the bus unexpectedly stalled out, and no matter what the driver did, it wouldn’t start.
Agonizingly paying for a taxi ride, it had not even gone far enough to charge the base fare when it broke down.
Mounting his bicycle, the tires suddenly burst.
Walking to work, entering an alley, a planter as tall as half a person on a balcony beside him crashed down directly towards his head.
Narrowly dodging the potted plant, he stepped right onto a loose sewer cover.
Barely making it onto the main street, he was still t with billboards blown down by the wind or out-of-control dump trucks sliding down.
It seed like the whole world was against him!
If Li Yelai hadn’t gotten used to bad luck, being highly vigilant after each nightmare,
anticipating any potential danger, he would have been long dead.
In so ways, Li Yelai could be considered a vehicle killer!
Thus, Doctor Wang, who was sowhat aware of the situation, didn’t dare let Li Yelai get in the car.
This was also the main reason why Li Yelai knew that the person in front of him wasn’t Doctor Wang.
After ntioning the nightmare, you still dare to let in your car?
Do you even want your car anymore?
At the mont of collision with the wall, the front of the car instantly deford and twisted, as the airbag burst open violently, engulfing ‘Doctor Wang’ entirely.
anwhile, Li Yelai, who had grabbed the handle and secured his seatbelt in advance, quickly ca to his senses.
He imdiately opened the rear door, dragging his numb body out of the smoke-filled car.
Given that his own bad luck was so terrifying, those with him would also be in danger.
This was Li Yelai’s way of dealing with this ‘Doctor Wang.’
Whatever kind of monster you are, first taste my Luck E!
However, before Li Yelai could escape the car, he saw the garage door nearby slowly closing.
And from the twisted wreck of the sedan behind him ca ‘Doctor Wang’s’ malevolent laugh.
With a crisp snap, the deford car door was neatly sliced open.
A figure erged—it was ‘Doctor Wang’!
His face seed to be completely torn off, revealing raw, red flesh and eyeballs that induced nausea and fear.
Looking at the ashen-faced Li Yelai, he revealed a terrifying smile, “Lucky, my face wasn’t injured.”
Li Yelai, however, looked panicked, confronting the monstrous figure with evident fear.
Reacting, he pulled out various items from his backpack.
They were the talismans, Buddha statues, crosses, and so on that he had before.
“Troops at the ready march forth”
“Amitabha”
“Hallelujah”
“Hurry up as if following a decree”
He clutched the items, praying fervently, hoping they would protect him and expel the monster before him.
They had been his tools against ‘Black Shadow,’ but now they were used to fend off this monster.
Nevertheless, ‘Doctor Wang’ was utterly unaffected, steadily approaching him, his eyes filled with mockery.
The recent accident may have been a surprise to ‘Doctor Wang,’ but he was beyond re mortals, unaffected by such a trivial car crash.
And upon entering this garage, he was already unbeatable.
This was his hunting ground.
He would carefully flay Li Yelai’s skin here and replace his life from then on.
As for prayers?
They only made ‘Doctor Wang’ laugh.
How could faith so epheral stand against the divine?
“Don’t be afraid, it was Doctor Wang who died in the accident, and I will live on in your identity and take good care of your sister.
Speaking of which, your sister is quite beautiful too,” he said, revealing a smile full of malice.
Even with his bloody, blurred face, the depravity and vulgarity within were palpable.
On hearing the last sentence, the look of terror on Li Yelai’s face beca rigid.
In reality, he wasn’t a particularly brave person in many situations and never chose dangerous jobs.
He had attachnts and reasons he couldn’t afford to die.
And now, this monster peeling skin not only wanted to kill him but also to harm his sister?
Unacceptable!
Thus, the frightened expression turned into one of fierce ruthlessness!
The angry Li Yelai, upon realizing these objects were utterly useless,
furiously threw them all aside and pulled an axe from his backpack.
“Damn it!
For failing to respect the toast, you’re forced to drink a forfeit!”
