Epoch of Twilight

He rubbed his muscles that felt a little swollen, and came out of the fitness club. He looked at the time and it was almost noon. He had a simple lunch outside, and then walked back to the community slowly.

Today, Zhao Yali went out early in the morning, and she didn't even see her face to face. Presumably, she was there for a funeral. Chen Weiqiang is not a local, his parents are in other provinces, before his parents arrive, everything needs to be taken care of by Zhao Yali.

At this time, Luo Yuan's phone rang. He took out the phone and saw that it was a colleague's phone, so he picked up the phone.

"Hey, Luo Yuan, come here quickly. We are eating barbecue in Donghu Park, Xie Chao treats guests, and Lou Jieying is also here." The person who spoke was the company's clerk Wang Xiaguang, who joined the company at the same time as Luo Yuan, quite confused , but because of this, everyone has a good relationship.

"I just finished eating, why didn't I say it earlier." Luo Yuan smiled, a little reluctant to go.

"No, you have to come, otherwise you won't be able to find someone to pay the bill when you go to karaoke later?" Wang Xiaguang said with a sinister smile.

"It turned out that I was thinking about my wallet. Well, I'll take a taxi right away. The open-air barbecue in Donghu Park, right?" Luo Yuan thought that he was about to resign soon, and it might be difficult to see his colleagues in the future, so he said.

"Well, it's the one I visited last time. Hurry up, it'll be gone if it's too late."

Luo Yuan smiled and hung up the phone, stopped a car, and went straight to Donghu Park.

Donghu Park is a famous scenic spot in Jiangnan Province, and the best place for citizens to relax, date and entertain. Whether it is spring, summer or autumn and winter, each has its own characteristics, attracting countless tourists from other places to visit. Especially due to the recent climate change, the East Lake has become clearer, like a sapphire inlaid on the ground. In addition, the lotus on the lake is in full bloom, and the color is so beautiful that it is too beautiful.

Today is the first day of the weekend, East Lake Park is full of tourists, and there are couples embracing and sitting everywhere on the grass. After getting off the car, Luo Yuan went straight to the open-air barbecue by the lake.

After a while, Luo Yuan found someone.

They were obviously just getting started, Xie Chao was holding seven or eight mutton skewers in his hand, while skillfully oiling them. While casually chatting with Lou Jieying. Wang Xiaguang took an eggplant and sprinkled it with pepper.

Lou Jieying is the company's financial manager. She has fair skin, a melon-shaped face, and big eyes. She is a flower of the company. However, he is rather aloof. Apart from having a good relationship with a few female staff, he is indifferent to men.

Luo Yuan didn't have much contact with her, and he didn't know how Xie Chao asked her out.

"If I had known earlier, I would have come later. Isn't this tempting me?" Luo Yuan approached and said.

Wang Xiaguang has a round face, curved eyebrows, and two dimples when she smiles, which looks cute. Although I didn't ask about her family background, judging from her clothes, it should be good. Seeing Luo Yuan approaching, she relaxed her slightly frowned brows, and said with a smile: "I just need a wallet, and I didn't ask you to come?"

"Hey, it really is a naked money society, it's really dark, even if I'm stuffed to death, I still want to eat more."

Luo Yuan greeted Xie Chao and Lou Jieying. He and Xie Chao were both in the marketing department. They just nodded their heads and were familiar with each other. After a few polite words, they took a chicken wing and grilled it on the grill. .

"Why didn't you come to work yesterday?" Wang Xiaguang asked.

"It's hard to explain in one word, it's almost like surviving death." Luo Yuan thought of so many thrilling things that happened yesterday, and felt emotional in his heart!

"Liar." Wang Xiaguang frowned, obviously not believing it.

Luo Yuan usually has a good relationship with her, and often fights and fights. Seeing that she still looks ignorant and ignorant at this time, I feel that I should remind him: "If I said, I met a big snake yesterday, would you believe it?"

"In the dream, I'm not so stupid." Wang Xiaguang said with an unhappy face. She knew that she was not smart, so she hated others teasing her.

Luo Yuan opened his mouth, speechless.

Xie Chao suddenly interjected from the side, "Where did you meet?"

Luo Yuan brushed the chicken legs with a layer of oil, and said in his mouth: "Zhushan in Gaotang Town. The roommate I rented with me disappeared. I went to Zhushan with a few policemen from Gaotang Town to look for it, but we encountered a giant snake. .”

"How big is it?"

"The thickness of the bucket!" Luo Yuan said.

Xie Chao smiled, obviously not believing it: "Recently, there are indeed a lot of such things on the Internet. Many plants and animals are growing wildly. It is possible to have thick thighs, but you may have misread the thick bucket."

After Xie Chao finished expressing his opinion, he turned to Lou Jieying and said, "Do you want spicy food?"

"A little bit, but not too spicy." Lou Jieying glanced at Luo Yuan and said.

Luo Yuan is a little depressed. Maybe modern people receive too much weird information every day, and they always look at problems with a self-righteous and critical eye, and only believe that seeing is believing.

"Really?" Wang Xiaguang asked timidly. Girls are generally more afraid of snakes.

Luo Yuan still persuaded patiently: "How can I lie about this kind of thing, it may be getting worse recently, look at the surrounding plants, there are still people who often prune them. If you go to the countryside to see, you may not believe it .”

"I believe in you." Lou Jieying said suddenly. The expression was a bit complicated, and he seemed to hesitate for a while and said: "My uncle is in the criminal police team. Recently, many beggars have disappeared. They were killed by rats in the sewer."

Xie Chao was stunned, a little afraid to say: "Rats eat people?"

Lou Jieying didn't answer, apparently acquiescing.

Luo Yuan also knew what kind of mood he was feeling at this time, he was relieved that his guess had been confirmed, but also had an indescribable fear of the future.

At this time, there was a shrill scream from not far away, and the crowd suddenly burst into commotion. Crying and shouting merged into a huge noise, and countless people ran towards this side desperately.

"What's going on?" Luo Yuan's face changed, and he looked towards the lake, only to see that the lake near the shore was churning violently, and large strands of dark red blood were constantly churning up from the water.

As if smelling blood, long waterlines suddenly appeared on the calm lake in the distance, like sharp swords, cutting the lake into several pieces, the waterlines moved very fast, just a few breaths, He rushed to the point where blood gushed out.

One after another, vortexes kept appearing. Each of these vortexes was about a meter wide and half a meter deep. Some vortexes collided with each other, or disappeared, or formed larger vortexes.

The crowd ran for a while, and saw that the monster in the lake could not reach the shore, so they stopped running. Instead, they looked lively, asking for news one by one, and there were more people who saw this What happened, came here from afar.

The truth of the matter was quickly spread.

It was a couple who died. They were sitting on the bank and kissing me at that time. Maybe it was because the weather was too hot, so the two of them dragged their shoes and stretched their feet into the cool lake water to play in the water. No one noticed when the lake water had circles of ripples.

A black strange fish rushed out of the lake suddenly, and dragged one of the men under the water with one bite. Since the two were hugging each other at the time, the woman was also dragged down by his boyfriend, and became a pair of same-sex couples. Life mandarin duck.

Because a murder occurred in the park, the police came quickly.

The place where the incident happened was immediately put under martial law.

Several policemen didn't seem very surprised. After learning what happened, they immediately started calling to inform their superiors!

"I'm afraid we can't finish eating, let's go." Lou Jieying said, seeing the way her fingers turned white, it was obvious that what happened just now had a great impact on her.

"Oh, good!" Xie Chao looked a little dazed, he suddenly turned around and said to Luo Yuan: "You said that giant snake is real?"

Luo Yuan nodded seriously, and said, "I'm ready to resign, everyone, get ready, things may be worse than you imagined."

As soon as they walked out of the park, several police cars suddenly drove up at the gate. Everyone realized that the East Lake Park might be closed for a few days. At least they had to make sure that there were not a single strange fish left in the lake.

When they reached the intersection, Luo Yuan asked, "Do you still want to sing?"

"Go and play, you suddenly lost your mood, I have to go first?" Lou Jieying shook her head and said.

"I'm not going either." Seeing that Lou Jieying wasn't going, Xie Chao lost interest.

"You said you were resigning, can you leave me a number?" Lou Jieying looked at Luo Yuan and asked.

Luo Yuan was a little surprised, even flattered, and quickly said, "Of course."

"Contact often in the future!" Lou Jieying shook her phone with a smile and said, "I'm leaving first."

"I'll see you off!" Xie Chao hurriedly said courteously.

"No need, I'll take a taxi home." Lou Jieying shook her head and refused.

After changing the number, Luo Yuan stuffed the phone into his belt and looked at the dazed Wang Xiaguang: "Why are you still in a daze, aren't you so timid?"

"Isn't what happened just now terrible? Why didn't you react at all?" Wang Xiaguang came back to his senses, looked at him strangely and said.

"Men are naturally more courageous." Luo Yuan said lightly, compared with yesterday's near-death, today's adventure is simply pediatrics, and Luo Yuan naturally won't feel any fear.

"Why is Xie Chao far inferior to you? I think he is quite scared?" Wang Xiaguang retorted.

"Are you making excuses for yourself?" Luo Yuan didn't want to gossip behind his back, so he changed the subject: "There's no one else, why don't you still sing?"

"Go, why not?" Wang Xiaguang said loudly.

"Just the two of us?" Luo Yuan was a little surprised.

"Two people can't sing?" Wang Xiaguang turned to stare at him.

"Well, you feel uncomfortable if you don't let me pay for it." Luo Yuan said helplessly.

The two chatted while walking, and walked towards the nearest KTV.

"You went to Zhushan yesterday, did you find that roommate in the end?" Wang Xiaguang thought of something at this moment and asked curiously.

"I'm dead, so I won't tell you the cause of death, so as not to make you have nightmares?" Luo Yuan said with a sigh.

"Ah! Don't tell me that I was swallowed by that snake, right?" Wang Xiaguang said with wide-eyed eyes as he turned his head faster this time.

"I didn't say anything?" Luo Yuan said innocently.

"But your attitude speaks for itself. It's all your fault. I'm afraid I'm going to have a nightmare today." Wang Xiaguang scolded.

"Reality is often more terrifying than nightmares. At least nightmares will wake you up. I will give you a piece of advice. Buy more food and other daily necessities after you go back. The more the better, I am worried that the situation will get worse." Luo Yuandao.

"Actually, my dad has bought a lot of things and built a big basement. At first I thought he was overreacting again. He has a criminal record. Before the doomsday prophecy in 2012, he and his gang A friend built a boat and spent a lot of money, which made us laugh for a long time." Wang Xiaguang said in a low voice.

"If something bad really happens, then you can come to my house." Wang Xiaguang said in a low voice, lowering his head, a blush quickly appeared on his face.

Luo Yuan's heart was shocked, he glanced at Wang Xiaguang, and was silent for a long time: "Thank you, if I really can't hold on, I will find you."

It seemed a little silent all the way, everyone was thinking about their own thoughts!
