Chapter 72 She Has No Shadow

Sure enough, as he had expected, this little girl was not like someone who would lose consciousness after being frightened, and she would dare to commit another murder.

It's just that it didn't work this time, after all, Qiuzi was dead.

Xu Shuo stood up, walked to the lounge, and said, "Sister Zhang, I have other things to do tonight, so I'll come with you next time."

Officer Zhang looked at her back and said nothing.

The girl's figure was perfectly outlined by the dance costume. Although she was not tall, her long legs had a beautiful arc, and she swayed gracefully like a swan while walking.

Under the bright light, her shadow gathers an inch below her feet and moves accordingly, like a lotus growing in sync.

Officer Zhang's eyes flickered, he looked down at his body, and then at Lan Ruo, who was lying stiff and motionless on the ground.

She slightly distanced herself from Lan Ruo.

The shadow under her moved with her, and the gray shadow that originally fit Lan Ruo also pulled away, and a clear boundary appeared under the incandescent light.

After seeing this situation, Officer Zhang quickly stood up and took a few steps back, completely away from Lan Ruo.

This girl has no shadow!

……

In the lounge, Xu Shuo was looking at his phone. He opened the social software and poked Xue Na's name and profile picture in it, but there was no response.

The shadow below him always gathers an inch below his feet, even though the girl is sitting on the bench and shaking her legs, there is no slight change.

Xu Shuo was playing with his phone boredly, and looked up at the woman in the dance studio who was carefully studying Lan Ruo.

The starting point of this game is indeed from the dead.

At the beginning, Qiuzi was witnessed when he died, and then characters from all walks of life also began to enter the scene, the police, dancers, teachers, priests, and Qiuzi who existed as a dead person——

It was not difficult for Xu Shuo to guess the general background of this story.

Teacher Changying screened from more than twenty people to the last three, and secretly tried to stir up conflicts and struggles among the three, as if mobilizing the darkness in their hearts.

In this story, Qiuzi is the most perfect white swan, pure and elegant, representing the bright side.

Lan Ruo has deep thoughts, interpreting the unrestrained and desire of the black swan, but she can't make a pure gesture like the white swan.

Logically speaking, if it is really to find the dancer who can best express the darkness, Lan Ruo is the No. 1 choice of Teacher Changying, but the latter is targeting Qiuzi.

He kept bewitching her to compete with Lan Ruo, trying to make her jump out of the black swan's aura, but unfortunately, until his death, Qiu Zi was a white swan.

She didn't touch the darkness until after her death.

Only Xue Na was a perfect twin swan from the beginning, but she broke her wings and can't fly now.

Teacher Changying obviously didn't forget to continue bewitching this one.

So, "Dancer in the Dark", who is this referring to?

Xu Shuo was playing the mini game on his mobile phone, thinking about the plot in his mind, but until the police officer Zhang over there had finished studying the corpse, it was nine o'clock in the evening, and Xue Na still hadn't replied to him.

Looks like it won't be coming today.

Xu Shuo got up and changed into his regular clothes in the lounge.

Officer Zhang was about to call him something, when he turned his head and saw this scene, so he turned his head silently.

Although she really wanted to watch it, the more Naihe was fascinated by it, the more she couldn't control herself.

After waiting for a while, the sound of light footsteps approached, and Officer Zhang looked back again, and saw the girl in a white long-sleeved dress, slim and graceful.

She seemed to be looking a little worse.

Officer Zhang glanced at the shadow under her feet and frowned slightly: "Aren't you really going to come with me tonight? I plan to take Lan Ruo there too. Her current situation is a bit weird."

Xu Shuo smiled, but did not strike up a conversation, and instead said, "Sister Zhang, I will be performing as the leading role in three days, let's talk about it then."

Lan Ruo can't even play now, his only competitor is Xue Na, of course, it's not certain whether Xue Na can play now.

Originally, he wanted Xue Na to play.

Hearing this, Police Officer Zhang hesitated and asked, "Qiuzi, do you know when it will be three days from now?"

Xu Shuo didn't look at the lying corpse on the ground, turned around and walked towards the door, a slightly playful voice came: "It's time for me to perform~"

Officer Zhang: "..."

"By the way, you don't need to turn off the lights after you leave."

The girl's voice fell, and her figure disappeared at the door. Officer Zhang didn't stop or keep her.

The two of them have basically never had any serious communication since they met, but they are well aware of some things.

They probably already knew about whether Qiuzi was an individual, but because her identity was still useful for the time being, no one pointed it out.

Coincidentally, Xu Shuo also wanted them to help advance the plot.

After all, he still has character cards to fill.

……

The dance room fell silent. Watching the girl leaving, Officer Zhang sighed helplessly.

She was thinking about things, and she was in a daze for a while, and she didn't realize it until she was too quiet. She looked at the wide and empty dance room, and thought about it, the people dancing here were probably not normal.

Not sure if it was a psychological factor, Officer Zhang felt cold and shivered.

After she told her temporary teammates what happened here, she put away her cell phone, pulled up Lan Ruo, who was lying dead, and leaned against her shoulder, ready to take her back.

Under the light, only her shadow was reflected.

However, in fact, Lan Ruo, with her legs drooping, also had a small black spot spreading at her toes. It was extremely dark, like dead black, and moved with her moving body, like a shadow.

But because the black spot was not obvious and the speed of spreading was extremely slow, Officer Zhang hadn't noticed it yet.

When he walked to the door, Officer Zhang wanted to turn off the light, but when he put his hand on the light switch, the girl's last words just now popped into his mind——

"Don't turn off the lights when you leave."

As a result, the finger that was almost pressing down on the switch became stiff.

Qiuzi wouldn't say this for no reason, would he?
After thinking about it, she doesn't have to pay the electricity bill anyway, and it doesn't matter whether the lights are turned off or not, so let's not turn them off.

Police officer Zhang moved his finger to switch the light, and closed the door of the dance room, leaving only a gap, which slanted light into the corridor outside.

The lights in the corridor were a little dim just now, but now they have returned to normal brightness, as if what she saw when she went upstairs just now were hallucinations.

Only the security guard is still missing.

Police officer Zhang's expression darkened. He originally wanted to take the elevator, but suddenly felt that the closed environment of the elevator seemed unsafe, so he simply supported the person and continued walking up the stairs.

The girl's body was very cold, pale without any blood, revealing a gloomy feeling,
If it wasn't for her mental strength and the need for investigation, Officer Zhang wouldn't want to delay her.

Where the two walked, two shadows were cast under the light.

One is a normal black-gray figure, and the other is a slow and strange pitch-black shadow that gathers under the toes and begins to spread.
