The crisp sound of high heels echoed in the smelly alley.

The moss-covered adobe brick wall is mottled, the sewage seeps out from the gaps in the corners of the wall gathers into thin lines, and the weeds grow in a mess near the sewage.

The dim lights in the windows of the old buildings on both sides were dying, just like the dusk of dusk.

Dirty light and shadow project on the wall.

In the gap between the wall bricks, a transparent tentacle-like outline is looming, extending and growing continuously. Floating mosquitoes fall on the tentacle and are directly stuck, and then gradually seeps into the tentacle and is digested and decomposed.

The sound of high heels is getting closer...

Accompanied by a brief and rapid exclaim, the residential buildings on both sides were alarmed.

Behind the shabby curtains is a peeping gaze.

Then there was a sound of the window being closed and locked.

I don’t know who called the police. Twenty minutes later, the whistle of the police car went from far to near.

The flashing red headlights dyed the alley blood red.

......

"According to the Chaofan Society, a demon was found in the third section of Quming Road, Shanggu District at 12:24 on May 4. A single woman who returned home at night was unfortunately killed. The demon has been captured by the police. The guard station reminds the general public to try not to go out at night and return late, and avoid passing alone in remote areas to avoid encountering demons..."

The host on TV skillfully informed the press release.

Ren Wu sat on the dining table, buried his head, digging the rice in the bowl with big mouthfuls, and a pair of eyes staring at the TV with their eyes unblindly on the edge of the bowl.

"Queming Road, it's not very far from us." The virtuous woman in her thirties sitting on the left of Ren Wu sighed, "Xiao Wu, come back early after school in the evening. Recently, there are more and more demons. This is the fourth near our house this month. You usually don't go to those alleys, and demons like to appear in unclean places."

Ren Wu nodded perfunctorily, swallowed the last bit of rice from the bowl into his mouth, grabbed his schoolbag in a hurry and ran towards the gate.

"Hey, have you heard that, I'll come back early after school in the evening, and you haven't wiped your mouth."

"I know, it's so long-winded." Ren Wu waved his hand and rode his bicycle to the school.

My name is Ren Wu. I am a second-year high school student at Qinghe Middle School in Shanggu District, Guangming City. I am seventeen years old this year.

I love to learn swordsmanship and also like martial arts.

Most of my peers in the class have similar hobbies to me.

In this world where demons live around us, people's pursuit of power is beyond imagination.

The status of the extraordinary has become very special.

Riding a bicycle through the commercial street.

The streets are filled with people.

The congested cars on the highway and the irritating whistle sounds made by buses.

Dudu—

beep--

"Store decoration, the lowest 60% off for the entire venue, and the lowest 60% off for the entire venue. Don't miss it when you pass by."

"As the saying goes, gold and silver awards are not as good as customers' praise, and gold and silver cups are not as good as customers' reputation. Come and take a look, it is your fault if you don't come, and it is our fault if you don't buy it!" The regular hair with a straight voice came out of the speaker.

"Baobababababababa..." Several ponytail ladies wearing black T-shirts stood in front of the store and clapped their hands, shouting: "20% off for the whole audience, 20% off for the whole audience."

On the sidewalk near the road, there was a row of breakfast carts, and the carts were crowded with people.

Some people carrying schoolbags or carrying briefcases formed a group of people.

The steaming breakfast fog appeared and dyed her glasses fog white.

Everyone is in a hurry. Everyone is like a train on the light rail, hovering endlessly on the track line.

"Good morning, Brother Wu." Ren Wu, who was standing in front of the traffic light, waited for the green light, sank his shoulders, turned his head and nose and almost wiped his greasy big round face.

Ren Long, Ren Wu's deskmate, has a wealthy family and loves to play games. The most important thing is that he is Ren Wu's cousin from afar, and I don't know how many generations it has been.

Apart from being rich, nothing is available.

Fatty Ren slapped Ren Wu's chubby big hand on the back seat of Ren Wu's bicycle and smiled slutty: "My cousin took me a ride."

Ren Wu looked at Ren Fatty's weight approaching 250 and shook his head silently.

"Wow, Brother Wu, you're not that interesting. If I crush your bicycle, I will compensate you for a new one, the latest model of Fit, Blue V Air Riding Series." Fatty Ren patted his chest, and the fat on his face and chest trembled again.

Ren Wu shook his head funny, "I don't feel sorry for money, I feel sorry for the car. This is my grandfather's birthday gift."

"Oh..." A trace of regret appeared on Fatty Ren's face, but he quickly threw this regret behind his mind.

He knew the significance of Grandpa Ren Wu’s birthday gift to Ren Wu. Speaking of which, he would call Grandpa Ren Wu to call Grandpa Grandpa.

"Why didn't your dad drive you to the car today?" Ren Wu remembered that his dad drove him to school before, and asked in confusion.

"My dad went to Chonggang District to inspect some business last night. You know that my mom's health has always been bad, so I won't bother her." Ren Long smiled.

"Your body needs exercise, otherwise you will not be able to run away if you accidentally encounter a demon one day." Ren Wu reminded.

Ren Long is not short, he is 1.9 meters tall, which makes him look like a small mountain of meat at 290 pounds.

"What are you afraid of? As long as you don't go to those places, it's not easy to meet demons. They are just spreading rumors." Ren Long waved his hand generously.

Since he met Ren Long, Ren Wu stopped riding his bike and pushed his bicycle to school with Ren Long.

Anyway, it's not far from the school.

"Have you read the morning news?" Ren Wu asked casually. "What happened to Quminglu again."

"Ah, something happened again." Ren Long was stunned for a moment. Quiming Road was the nearby street. Of course, the residential areas there were relatively old and there were many alleys, both sanitation and facilities, with a history of twenty or thirty years.

"I heard that Quming Road is about to be demolished." Ren Long said: "I heard that it is planned to be planned as an office building and a commercial street, which should be much safer at that time. And why are you worried about this? The Jade House where you live is also a high-end community, which is built according to the standards, so it is difficult to give birth to demons. But Brother Wu, please pay attention to it in daily life. I don't want to see you on the news one day."

Ren Wu laughed and scolded, "You crow's mouth won't say anything nice."

"Don't I care about you?"

The two came to school with a chat and laugh.

The school gate is extremely grand, with security booths on both sides, and the gate is spacious, and the school bus slows down to drive into the school.

When I arrived at the classroom, most of the classmates had already sat down in the classroom.

The teacher hasn't come yet, and the classroom is full of homework collection, handing in, copying homework, and doing hygiene.

"Brother Wu, let me take a look at homework." Ren Long winked and stretched out his fat palm.

Ren Wu was already used to it. At first, he advised Ren Long to study hard and do his homework seriously, but it didn't work. Later, Ren Wu was too lazy to care. "Which subject do you want?"

“All the assignments yesterday.”

“…”

"Bang!" A big hand slapped the desk, and the middle-aged man wearing glasses with expressionless faces was arrogant without anger.

"Submit the homework."

After a shock, Ren Long raised his head in despair and looked at the head teacher, his little eyes full of lifelessness.

Why did the old class come so early today? Didn’t the old class come after eight o’clock? Why did the old class arrive at seven o’clock today?

When I picked up my homework, the middle-aged man couldn't see any joy and anger in his eyes, so he put the homework behind his hands.

"Ren Long, Ren Wu, you two come to the office with me."

Ren Wu sighed, "You have been cheated so badly."

He was warned by his class teacher Lao Xiao, and then stood outside the classroom and was punished to stand for a class.

For Ren Wu, this was an unlucky day.

It was dusk and the unlucky day finally ended with Ren Wu's expectation.

The school bell rang.

Ren Wu carried his schoolbag and refused to invite Ren Fatty to the Internet cafe. After class, Ren Wu also had activities and daily swordsmanship practices at the swordsman club.

There are swordsmanship practice classes every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and weekends.

Of course, this is a club course. Whether to participate in the course depends entirely on voluntary terms. You only need to pay a club fee of 200 yuan per semester.

The venue of the Swordsman Club is approved by the school. In fact, the Martial Artsman Club, the Swordsman Club, the Magic Society, and the Mysterious Society have venues, and they are also the most popular clubs.

Of course, Ren Wu doesn't look down on the Magic Society and the Mysterious Society.

It’s not that he thinks these things are nonsense, among the famous extraordinary people, there are also strong people who focus on this aspect.

But those things were too far away from them. Ren Wu also attended courses from the Magic Club and the Mysterious Club when he was in his first year of high school, and participated in activities of these two clubs. But in the end, he found that it was just a group of high school students who were entertaining themselves.

Buy some dead rats and dead bats, and sprinkle some metal powder to ignite them.

Ren Wu recognized that this was Leng Fireworks, a trick that was bluffing.

Or sometimes, some underground pirated videos are played, about the extraordinary.

Ren Wu was not interested in these things.

These videos have resources, not to mention the veteran driver Ren Long.
