Don't believe me in the mirror
I am a forensic doctor. When I was dissecting the corpse of a faceless man, an oily paper note rolled out of the stomach pouch. "Don't believe what I see in the mirror." At first I thought it was a prank until my assistant pointed out that the image in the mirror was half a second slower when I turned around. A series of murders occurred one after another. The deceased all bought antique mirrors and looked in them before they died. When tracing, I always felt like I was being spied on, and items in my home were inexplicably moved. The surveillance camera captured a blurry white figure, whose body shape was exactly the same as mine. I finally found out that the owner of the mirror shop was the murderer. The moment I broke in, I felt like I had fallen into an ice cave. He slowly took off his mask, and my face was reflected in the mirror. "Don't you understand yet?"

The rain seemed to be coming hard, plunging the city into a chaotic darkness. The heavy raindrops violently hit the narrow high window of the autopsy room of the forensic center, making a dull and continuous crackling sound, which merged into a suffocating background noise that was endless. A frighteningly pale shadowless lamp hung above the head, and the cold light poured down without any obstruction, reflecting the faceless male corpse on the autopsy table like a weird, cold sculpture. The air is filled with an indescribably strong smell of disinfectant, mixed with a deeper, more primitive, rust-like sweet smell that belongs to death itself, weighing heavily on one's chest.
