It Went Through His Face

There is something called "shedding" in this world. They have no body of their own and can only parasitize living people. The process of parasitism is extremely long - first it will follow you home, stare at you in the dark, and imitate your habits, mouth habits, and walking posture day after day. When it has learned everything about you, it will get in through your mouth, ears, or eye sockets while you are sleeping, squeeze your soul out of your body bit by bit, and then penetrate it by itself. Like a change of clothes. The extruded souls will not disappear, they will become a translucent, moist thing that will always stand within three meters behind the host, watching that thing wear its own skin to eat, go to work, and kiss its lover. They will scream, cry, and try to alert the living, but the living will never hear them. The only thing they can do is squeeze into the world through every crack - a foggy mirror, the speaker of an old cell phone, a puddle of water that appears on the floor for no apparent reason. That thing's name is Zhou Ming, and it has changed its skin three times. This time, it targeted Lin Zhaoxi.
