Three figures stood in the darkness.
The same hairstyle, the same height, the same attire - even their body silhouettes were disgustingly identical.
The high degree of similarity not only swallowed the slight differences in the features of the three men, but also affected the perception of their actual number.
There are many people in the world who look similar, with enough twins and triplets to come around. But the similarity of these three men transcends common understanding. They are like mirror images in an endless maze, toys produced in uniform specifications on a production line, the individuality and vitality drained from their bodies.
Neither illusions nor toys, these men were made of flesh and blood. Breathing, eating, excreting, moving - they conducted all the activities of life that humans should perform, only with few minor differences to the standard human beings.
Except for their eyes and noses, the men, who were completely wrapped in long robes, started to move.
