Prologue

September, the weather was scorching hot. The wind blowing in one's face carried not a hint of coolness. The oppressive heat in the air was unbearably irritating. It was also the beginning of the school year at Tianya University. In the evening, with a "boom" of thunder, the "couple's" grove at Tianya University echoed with the ups and downs of girls' screams. Countless figures sprang up from the woods and the beach, fleeing back to the Tianya University campus like dogs that had lost their homes. A heavy rain began to fall without any warning. A flash of lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating half of the sky. Two figures appeared in the woods. The couple was having a good time in the campus grove, but they never expected that a heavy rain would dampen their spirits. The young couple ran and took shelter under the eaves of the back building of the girls' dormitory. This place was very secluded and was a shortcut to the girls' dormitory. Although this small door was locked all year round, it was favored by many girls because they could climb out of the wall no matter how late it was. It was a place for meeting boyfriends secretly. The girl shrank in the boy's arms and coquettishly said, "It's so cold. Maybe I should go back and we can make another date next time." The couple had been separated for the entire vacation and had just begun to enjoy each other's company, but now they were about to be separated by this relentless heavy rain. The boy looked up at the sky, where the rain was pouring down like buckets. It seemed that the rain had no intention of stopping and was actually getting heavier. He couldn't help but feel a bit depressed. He sighed slightly, put his arm around the girl's delicate shoulders, and reluctantly replied, "Okay, then I'll see you off..." The girl sensed the boy's slight displeasure and also took a very reluctant glance at the boy. But in that fleeting glance, the girl's eyes could no longer be taken away from the two red lights in the woods. In the dim woods, under the mist of the rain, two eerie red lights suddenly burst out from the woods, like a beam of infrared laser. In such bad weather, in the woods with such low visibility, what on earth could it be? Suddenly, her breathing began to become rapid, her eyes bulged, and her body twitched slightly. Her hand, which had just been on her boyfriend's arm, suddenly dug into his flesh... The boy noticed the girl's abnormality and also turned to look. Before he could react, he was so scared that his legs went limp. An unknown body, covered in wet clothes, was slowly moving towards the two. One step, two steps, three steps... With each movement of the other party, the hearts of the young couple trembled. The two stood there like wooden chickens, motionless. The boy tried to open his mouth to call for help, but found that his throat was so dry that he couldn't make a sound. And that seemingly eerie body had already walked up to him, slowly stretched out its right hand, and forcefully grabbed his throat, making it almost impossible for him to breathe. At this moment, he could only hear the "gurgling" sound coming from his own throat. His breathing became slower and slower, his heartbeat dropped sharply, until he stopped breathing completely. During this period, the girl also tried to run away, but her two feet seemed to be forcibly pressed to the ground and couldn't move. Just as she looked up, the eerie body turned around, and those terrifying eyes emitted a fiery red light. In an instant, a huge hand lunged at the girl. She felt a burning sensation on her face. The "alien" grinned at the girl, neither smiling nor not smiling. She had already become another "prey" in its mouth. The girl's body was rigid, her eyes met with it, but she couldn't make a sound. The rain beat down on her body without restraint, cold and icy, a harbinger of death... The "alien" used its strong hand to lift the girl up and caressed down her face, as if caressing a beloved treasure, but this was just an illusion. The girl could no longer bear the terror in her heart, and a scream pierced the quiet university campus. "Help—— " The sound suddenly stopped. The rain stopped. When the "alien" left, it had hollowed out all the organs in the chests of the couple...
