The story of "Shadow of Horror" is very simple, The protagonist is an ordinary clerk who works in a soap company and leads a monotonous life. But one day, he always feels that someone is secretly watching him. At this time, his life has also changed.

Later, not only the eyes, the protagonist also heard peculiar voices, he could always see some strange things in the corners of his vision, and he became perverse and lonely.

Then, one night, the protagonist finally discovered the source of his gaze. It was his own shadow. There were monsters hidden in his shadow. These monsters were not only in his own shadow, but also in other things. In the shadow of man.

He walks to the street, moved towards all the monsters in the shadows and shoots, finally, killing his girlfriend After that, the protagonist was shot dead by the police.

The most commendable thing about this book is actually the end. Everyone thinks that the protagonist is just a magical hallucination. After the so-called monster does not exist at all, in the shadow of the protagonist’s corpse, a The tentacles were quietly withdrawn, making people feel terrified to think carefully.

Moreover, the author's meticulous description is empathetic, as if there is a monster in his shadow.

Darkness and shadows are the fear that human beings have always existed since ancient times. It is even more frightening to be exaggerated by the author.

". This novel looks a little bit on the head."

Drizzt took a deep breath, he put down the book, and suddenly, behind him, a light The crash sounded from the shadow.

He felt a little in his heart, and hurriedly looked over.

The fat orange cat didn't know when he woke up, and was jumping off the sofa, making the sound when he landed.

"The text of this book makes people feel uncomfortable."

Sia was not as suspicious as Drizzt, but frowned.

"So just now that man fell into a situation similar to the protagonist after reading this novel, thinking that there are monsters in reality, so he took a gun to attack other people?"

Lu Yi got up and hugged the orange cat. The orange cat struggled reluctantly. In the end, Lu Yi pinched the back of Destiny's neck and calmed down.

He tugged at the corner of the cat's mouth and rubbed its belly again. The orange cat looked unlovable and could only be ravaged by Lu Yi.

"I'm stunned by reading the book."

Drizzt commented, but he still had some lingering fears.

After reading this book, I don’t know if the contents are too real, or for other reasons. Drizzt always has a subtle sense of fear, afraid of being in the shadow of Lu Yi or Xia See what monster got out.

"But if it's the mission of a Quiet Place, maybe behind this writer called the ancient capital, there is really an extraordinary power influence."

Xiya added.

"Indeed."

Drizzt was nodded.

"It seems that maybe the publishing house came to me, and I was also affected by the quiet place."

His current career development task is to crack together A mystery case with a wide range of influence, when he was still selecting a case, he met Lu Yi's invitation. Thinking of the case of the ancient capital, Drizzt immediately reacted. Perhaps this is the case his career development task requires.

Drizzt was originally just an ordinary downcast policeman. After he was expelled from the police force because of a mistake, he gained the favor of Silent Land and became the Chosen. His chosen profession was [Detective] .

Along the way, career development tasks are also to solve a few cases, open a detective agency, etc., although it can be regarded as punishing evil and promoting good in a certain sense, Drizzt faced the worse The more and more difficult the task of Silent Place and the less and less sanity of oneself, there is still a bit of fear.

"Here is the information given to me by the publisher, as well as the key to the ancient capital residence. I want to check it later when you arrive."

He shook the key of the portfolio. Take out the documents in it.

It can be seen from the document that the mother of the ancient capital was a female textile worker. She used to work in a large family’s house. She was then driven out by the Young Master at home, but she was pregnant with him at the time. Later, the Young Master of the family died early and left no heirs. The family took the ancient capital and his mother back and raised them as a concubine.

The mother died before the ancient capital came of age. He began to write short stories when he was a teenager. Later, when he was twenty, his book became famous. His family gradually became proud of him, but the ancient capital never returned. pass.

"illegitimate child, this kind of situation is very common in abandonment, these illegal child good luck will be aided, living a normal life, bad luck will never be found, and finally die I don't know where."

Drizzt said with emotion.

"The house in the ancient capital is in the rich area, within the third ring of the ancient capital, we can pass now."

It’s the poorest. The more you go in, the richer you get. You can be called the rich within the fourth ring road. Drizzt’s detective office is on the fifth ring road. This is the junction of the rich and the poor. Those who are rich can also see ordinary people.

And the more the public security goes out, the more chaotic, the gang firmly controls that side, the Fifth Ring Road is already regarded as the farthest area that the police can radiate.

"In addition, no outsider knows about the disappearance of the ancient capital, but some people, mainly his lovers, have been aware of it. The publishing house came to me this time mainly because of the ancient capital’s The new work has already given a part of the initial manuscript, so what they are actually looking for is the manuscript left by the ancient capital."

Drizzt said again.

"Is that the supreme masterpiece in the mission statement? Have you seen it?"

Xia asked.

"Of course I haven't read it. The publisher said that if I am sure to accept the investigation, it will show me the manuscript to find clues. I am going to reply to them today."

Stuart put down the portfolio and looked towards the two of them.

"How about, shall we go to the publishing house first, or go to the home of the ancient capital?"

"Not to mention these two, can we have a meal, we are a little hungry Now."

Lu Yi put down the orange cat, the ravaged little kitty screamed immediately, and got into some unknown place.
