The story of "Shadow of Terror" is very simple. The protagonist is an ordinary clerk who works in a soap company and lives a monotonous life. But one day, he always feels that someone is watching him secretly. At this time, his Life has also changed. He met a nice girl and fell in love with her. However, the voyeuristic gaze always followed him, making the protagonist nervous, and had many incidents with his lover, boss, and friends. quarrel.
Later, not only the gaze, but the protagonist also heard strange voices, and he could always see some strange things in the corner of his vision, and he became eccentric and lonely.
Then, one night, the protagonist finally discovers the source of his gaze, which is his own shadow, and there are monsters hidden in his shadow, and these monsters are not only in his own shadow, but also in the shadows of other people.
When he was walking under the sun and the shadow covered his lover, monsters came out of the lover's body. The protagonist felt extremely frightened, and he stayed away from everyone, but there were more and more monsters in the shadow.
Finally, one day, his friend found the protagonist. The protagonist has fallen into extreme madness at this time. Finally, he takes up the gun and kills the monster emerging from the shadow of the friend. The bullet also penetrates the friend's body. , after killing his friend and the monsters on his friends, the protagonist gradually understands everything, he goes to the street and shoots at all the monsters in the shadows, and finally, after killing his girlfriend, the protagonist is shot dead by the police.
The most commendable thing about this book is actually the ending. Everyone thinks that the protagonist is just delusional and hallucinated. After the so-called monster does not exist at all, in the shadow left by the protagonist's body, a tentacle is quietly pulled away, making people I feel terrified.
Moreover, the author's detailed description makes people feel empathetic, as if there is some monster in his own shadow.
Darkness and shadows are the fears that human beings have existed since ancient times, and it is even more frightening to be exaggerated by the author.
"...This novel seems to be a bit exciting."
Drizzt took a deep breath, he put the book down, and suddenly, behind him, a soft crash sounded from the shadow.
His heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly looked over.
The fat orange cat didn't know when it woke up. It was jumping off the sofa and made that sound when it landed.
"The writing in this book feels very uncomfortable."
Shia was not as suspicious as Drizzt, but frowned.
"So the man just now read this novel,
Falling into a situation similar to that of the protagonist, thinking that there are monsters in reality, that's why you hold a gun and prepare to attack other people? "
Lu Jian got up and hugged the orange cat. The orange cat struggled reluctantly, but finally Lu Jian pinched the back of fate's neck and calmed down.
He tugged at the corners of the cat's mouth and rubbed its stomach. The orange cat looked so unlovable that it could only let Lu Jian ravage it.
"I was stunned after reading the book."
Drizzt commented, but he still has some lingering fears.
After reading this book, I don’t know if it’s because the things inside are too real, or because of other reasons, Drizzt always has a subtle sense of fear, afraid of seeing some monsters coming out from the shadow of Lu Lian or Shia .
"But if it's a mission in a quiet place, maybe behind this writer called Ancient Capital, there really is an influence of extraordinary power."
Shia added.
"really."
Drizzt nodded.
"Now it seems that maybe the publishing house came to me and was also secretly affected by the quiet place."
His current career development task is to solve a mystery case with wide-ranging influence. When he was still selecting a case, he encountered an invitation from Lu Jian. Thinking of the case in the ancient capital, Drizzt immediately realized that maybe this is his career. Cases needed for development tasks.
Drizzt was originally just an ordinary down-and-out policeman. After he was expelled from the police force because of a mistake, he was favored by the Quiet Place and became a god-chosen one. His chosen profession was [Detective].
Along the way, the career development task is to crack a few cases, open a detective agency and so on. Although it can be regarded as punishing evil and promoting good in a certain sense, Drizzt is facing more and more difficult The Quiet Place I still have some fear of the mission and my dwindling sanity.
"Here is the information given to me by the publishing house, and the key to the residence in the ancient capital. I want to check it when you arrive."
He shook the key of the file bag and took out the documents in it.
It can be seen from the documents that Gudu's mother was a female textile worker who used to work in a wealthy family's family. Later, the young master of the family fell asleep and kicked her out, but she was pregnant with him at that time. Yao, no heirs were left behind, and the family took Gudu and his mother back, and raised them as a concubine.
Gu Du's mother died before he became an adult. He started writing short stories when he was a teenager, and became famous when he was twenty. His family gradually became proud of him, but Gu Du never went back.
"Illegal children, this kind of situation is very common in Bao. These illegitimate children who are lucky will be helped and live a fairly normal life. Those who are unlucky will never be found again, and they will eventually die somewhere."
Drizzt said with emotion.
"The house in the ancient capital is in the wealthy area, within the third ring road of the ancient capital, we can go there now."
The abandoned capital presents a circular structure, with a total of ten rings. The outermost layer is the poorest, and the deeper you go, the richer you get. Once you reach the fourth ring, you can already be called a rich man. Drizzt’s detective agency is in Fifth Ring Road, here is the junction of the rich and the poor, where you can see both the rich and ordinary people.
The further outside the area, the more chaotic the law and order, the gangsters firmly controlled that area, and the Fifth Ring Road was already the farthest area that the police could radiate.
"In addition, the disappearance of the ancient capital is currently unknown to outsiders, but some people, mainly his lovers, have already noticed that the publisher is looking for me this time mainly because the new work of the ancient capital has already given a part of the beginning. manuscripts, so they are actually looking for manuscripts left over from the ancient capital.”
Drizzt said another word.
"Is that the crowning masterpiece in the mission statement? Have you seen it?"
Shia asked.
"Of course I haven't read it. The publisher said that if I am determined to accept the investigation, they will show me the manuscript to find clues. I am going to reply to them today."
Drizzt put down the file bag and looked at the two of them.
"How about it, should we go to the publishing house first, or go to the home in the ancient capital?"
"Let's not mention these two, can we have a meal, I'm a little hungry."
Lu Jian put down the orange cat, and the ravaged little cat immediately let out a cry and went somewhere.
