Shadow-swallowing monster.

This is Xia Yu's first reaction.

He had only heard of this name from Qingqing and other shadow girls before, but this was the first time he had seen it.

Looking through the mirror, there actually was no difference between the shadow swallowing monster and other shadow girls, and they shrank into the corner in darkness.

The only difference is that the shadow swallowing monster can devour other people's shadows.

Qingqing said that anyone who is swallowed by a shadow monster will die with him.

Xia Yu felt ache and couldn't help but observe a two-second silence for the shadow girl.

The poor shadow girl, who devoted herself to him, didn't have time to repay this sister Zhiling, was gone, and she was really sad.

More -

Xia Yu felt a burst of chills.

The chill spread from the back and rushed straight into the forehead.

He didn't even pull his pants up, his eyes staring at the mirror motionlessly.

Xia Yu's mind is blank now, and he has no time to react to what he should do now and how to deal with the shadow-swallowing monster.

In the entire bathroom, only the window on the east side can see through a little sunlight, and other locations only have ordinary lighting.

The indoor lights and the sunlight outside stretched his shadow to the ground, not much different from the shadow corner.

The shadow-swallowing monster slowly crawled like a pitch-black tide, spreading towards him.

Xia Yu was extremely nervous.

Damn, I'm going to die.

But these legs were completely out of control. Xia Yu felt that his legs were filled with lead. No matter how hard he tried, he could not move.

His eyes were staring at the mirror tightly, and he didn't dare to look back at that terrible thing.

When people are extremely afraid, they will be a little bit self-deception, and they will always feel that as long as they don’t look back, it will be as if nothing has happened.

The things that are reflected in the mirror are all fake.

But once he turns around, he might be scared by the terrible existence in front of him on the spot.

Xia Yu sighed silently in his heart.

He finally understood Cao Jie's pain.

No man wants to encounter terrible inhuman creatures at their convenience.

Xia Yu's neck was extremely stiff and could not move at all.

Only one pair of eyes can move with the shadow swallowing monster.

But what surprised him a little was that-

The shadow suddenly stopped while crawling towards him.

It poked its head left and right, and then shrank back in confusion.

It was then that Xia Yu noticed that there was a ray of sunlight between his shadow and the shadow swallowing monster.

This sunlight is exactly the setting sun shining in from outside the window.

Damn it!

Xia Yu's brain immediately started to move.

A light of inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind.

Although this is just a guess, he has reason to doubt—

What is the activity pattern of the shadow swallowing monster?

Will it be like the shadow girls, you must walk in the shadows?

Otherwise, why would it be afraid of the sun and shrank back?

It is obviously only a distance from its own shadow that is less than an arm.

However, as long as Xia Yu moves his footsteps slightly in the direction of the exit, it will be obvious that he will be shining by the sun, connecting his shadow with the ball on the ground.

Xia Yu did not dare to take this risk, so he moved two steps in the opposite direction silently.

He had to make sure his shadow would not be connected to the area where the shadow swallowing monster was staying.

At the same time, Xia Yu, who had experienced nine years of compulsory education, raised his head and followed the shadows to find the connection and breaking points to facilitate himself to find the best escape route.

As if he had noticed his existence, the shadow-swallowing monster raised his head.

Xia Yu's heart skipped a beat.

It's finished, it's finished.

To die.

He didn't dare to move anymore, but just stared in the mirror silently.

I touched my hands down and wanted to lift my pants first.

But as soon as he moves, he will find that shadow staring at him.

elder sister?

Big brother?

Are you voice-controlled?

Could it be that this shadow-swallowing monster judges the direction based on the human movements and sounds?

Just as she was thinking about this, Xia Yu's eyes suddenly widened—

The black shadow began to crawl along the wall above.

Yes, although the sunlight split a straight line from the ground, the sunlight above the window could not shine. The shadow swallowing monster only needed to crawl up, bypass the ceiling, and then fall through the mirror...

Wait, mirror...

Xia Yu outlined a dangerous but glimmer of hope in his mind.

Is it possible to protect yourself by breaking the mirror and then letting the mirror reflect the sunlight?

How much time is left for him to act?

Xia Yu didn't know much.

But maybe, this is his only chance.

...

The shadow-swallowing monster climbed up the wall and looked at him crookedly.

When she completely stepped on the wall, Xia Yu discovered-

He guessed wrongly.

It was a thin girl, about 168 years old.

She could see her fluffy hair on both sides, resting on her shoulders.

But it's hard to say-

Maybe he is really a hairy monster, his whole head is Medusa.

I can't rule out this possibility if I think about it.

After all, it's just a silhouette.

Only a little bit of Xia Yu can confirm-

It's just that the shadow swallowing monster is a tablet.

If it is more fierce, the waists on both sides will be more obvious.

Of course, it is not ruled out that there is a possibility of being more concentrated, so nothing can be seen from the front silhouette.

When the shadow-swallowing monster crawled upwards, Xia Yu also saw her turning to the side.

She is really an ordinary girl.

Xia Yu originally thought he was a particularly terrifying beast-shaped monster, but he didn't expect...

Even though it was pitch black, Xia Yu could see it in the mirror—

If only in terms of outline, this guy's figure...

Emmm, obviously, is a tablet girl, the worst of all the girls he has ever seen.

It's a bit disappointing to be able to become a terrifying shadow-swallowing monster in this way.

Xia Yu's heart tightened and he quickly came to his senses.

There is not much time left for him.
