Description:
“Dual Heads,” a weird creature with two faces, one beautiful and the other ugly, lives beneath the subway platform. Tonight, as usual, the creature appears at an underground shopping mall looking for fresh blood from homeless people sleeping in cardboard beds. Alerted by an alarm, “Video Army Android” thrusts a video camera and monitor in front of the creature. Astonished and shocked by what it sees, the “face of beauty” dies. She wasn’t aware of her ugly opposite face. Because it is unable to move, the ugly face also dies.
