"What... is this? Am I dead?"
Chu Chen lay in a pool of blood, feeling his body grow lighter and lighter as his consciousness slowly rose.
The world around him seemed to grow quiet, the clamor gradually fading into the distance.
Strangely, Chu Chen could see the expressions on everyone's faces. The people nearby looked terrified, the police were grim, and the medical personnel carrying a stretcher from the ambulance looked frantic.
Maybe this is for the best.
Chu Chen sighed inwardly.
After all, he had no one waiting for him.
After all, he was nothing but a failure.
Would there be another life? What was the world after death like?
Chu Chen slowly lost control of his thoughts, his mind wandering into chaos. It felt as if he would lose all sensation at any moment.
As his consciousness drifted higher and higher, Chu Chen suddenly saw a man in a black trench coat standing at the far corner of the street, quietly watching him.
"Who is he?"
Chu Chen realized he could no longer hold on to his thoughts. His consciousness slowly sank into darkness.
The last thing he saw was the cold smile at the corner of that man's mouth.
