Those tentacle-like heads, some part of which had drooped to the ground, flapped like elephant trunks, probing as if sniffing out a particular scent, and finally, they slowly wriggled towards the vicinity of the remnants of the big eyeballs that had not completely vanished after the explosion.
They hopped flexibly in the Grey Mist, nibbling here and there, like a little monster licking up candy off the ground, slowly following behind the silhouettes of Lin Yi and Old Mo.

Year X023, May 10th, 0:00, at the Gallery walkway.
An invisibly flowed qi emanated from the depths of the walkway, causing both Old Mo and Lin Yi to pause.
It was a kind of induction that couldn't be described in words, Lin Yi almost instantly realized something, he looked down and pulled up his sleeve, and indeed, the time had passed midnight.
"Old Mo, it's midnight!" Lin Yi reminded.
Old Mo said, "I felt it just now... the Night Watchman's bell sound..."
"The 'Night Watchman's bell sound'?"
