"What hateful weather…" Walking on the street with an umbrella, Zhang Yi looked at the gloomy sky that had been raining for several days. In the past few days, he had completed the first mission of killing ten ghouls, but he still had no clue about destroying the ghoul stronghold. This made Zhang Yi very unhappy.
After all, as long as the ghouls didn't expose their Hezi or Heyan, they were basically no different from ordinary people. The ghouls were hidden among humans, and each had their own residence and gathering place. In addition, the confidentiality was very good. It was really not easy for Zhang Yi to find the target. There were less than ten days left until the one-month deadline. If he exceeded this time, the reward would be reduced by a lot. This was not a situation that Zhang Yi wanted to see.
"Ring, ring, ring…"
"Hello,"
"Zhang Yi, where are you?" Rina's voice came from the phone.
"I'm already at the intersection. You'll see me when you come out.”" Yes," Zhang Yi replied. Very soon, Rena came out of the alley not far away with a pink umbrella. She smiled and waved at Zhang Yi. She was dressed in a refreshing white dress, looking especially pure and lovely.
"So, where do you want to go next?”Zhang Yi put away his phone and looked at Rina, who ran over and held his arm. He felt a little helpless, but he felt a little happy. He temporarily put aside his mission and everything in the past. At this moment, Zhang Yi, who had first come into contact with love and dating, felt a lot more relaxed.
" Hehe, I've already thought about it. Let's go watch a movie first. There's a new one out recently," Rina said as she pulled Zhang Yi toward the nearby shopping street. Rina was basically the one talking and laughing with Zhang Yi, and Zhang Yi was mostly the one listening to Rina. Although the dating pattern was the same, the fun was indescribable. For a moment, Zhang Yi was a little intoxicated by the atmosphere.
"Bang!" As they walked on the rather lively street, two figures passed each other and their shoulders collided.
"My apologies…" Zhang Yi subconsciously said. However, when he saw the other party's face, he was stunned.
"I'm the one. I'm sorry." The other party said politely. They were a beautiful mother and daughter.
The reason why Zhang Yi was stunned was naturally because he discovered the identity of this mother and daughter-ghouls. They were a family that was often taken care of by the Anding District. It seemed that the husband had been killed by the search officer, and they had taken their daughter to settle down in the Anding District to receive their protection.
"What, this stench! The rain was so wet that it made people feel uncomfortable. Not only did it affect their vision and work, but the rain would also wash away all kinds of things. Sometimes, it would also help them with the dirt and filth... The screams of the ugly pigs were the same, hehe…Can I take up a little of your time? Ms. Ryoko Otoko." A white-haired middle-aged man in a gray suit and carrying a large suitcase walked towards the mother and daughter with an undisguised madness on his face. Behind him was a black-haired young man in a dark green suit and carrying a large suitcase.
"I have something to ask you about this.”Not far from the mother and daughter, the white-haired middle-aged man took out a plastic bag with a mask inside.
Zhang Yi, who was temporarily ignored by both parties, naturally recognized the identity of the two investigators. The middle-aged man was called Wu Xu, a high-grade investigator. Behind him was his partner, Amen Kotaro, who was also a high-grade investigator. It was obvious that the identity of the mother and daughter had been exposed, and the other party's purpose of coming was naturally for the mother and daughter.
"What happened over there?"
"Police?"
The situation here quickly attracted the attention of passersby. Listening to the discussions around him, Kotaro took out his ID and said,""We are Ghoul Search Officers. The situation here is very dangerous. We hope that everyone can leave this place!”
"Ghouls? In other words, that mother and daughter..."
"You must be lying. You look like an ordinary person!”
"Please leave immediately!" Looking at the ordinary people who were still discussing, Kotaro raised his voice. Seeing this, the surrounding passersby could only suppress their curiosity and leave in a hurry.
"Zhang Yijun, what happened?”At this moment, Rina, who had just returned from buying accessories from a nearby shop, walked over and asked curiously.
"The investigator and the ghoul." Zhang Yi answered Rina's question briefly.
Upon hearing Zhang Yi's words, Rina immediately noticed the two opposing sides. On one side was a pair of seemingly harmless mother and daughter, and on the other side was a pair of adult men. They were staring at the silent mother and daughter like tigers eyeing their prey. Although Rina was sometimes a little rash, she was not stupid. She quickly understood and stopped talking. She tugged at Zhang Yi, indicating for them to leave quickly.
Nodding, Zhang Yi didn't want to be a busybody. He wasn't hostile to ghouls. They had different standpoints, so they would naturally see things differently. Just like how there were good and bad humans, ghouls were the same. However, ghouls could only feed on humans, which made it impossible for them to coexist. Compared to humans, ghouls didn't have any advantage. They could only rely on humans to survive, and they didn't have an organization that could compete with humans. Most of them were scattered and liked to act independently. They divided their territories, which only allowed the ghouls to live in the dark and drag out an ignoble existence.
"Cherry! Hurry up and leave!" Right at this moment, the mother called Ryoko exploded. She opened her eyes, and behind her, she also revealed herself without any scruples. Her face was filled with determination. Facing the investigators, she was already determined to die as long as she could let her daughter escape this calamity.
"Mom... Mother..." Looking at its mother in horror, its eyes were filled with tears, and it was at a loss.
" Hurry up and leave!!!" Ryoko shouted again when she saw that her daughter hadn't moved.
Looking at her mother, Hatami finally made a move. She gritted her teeth and turned around to run away. The investigator was intercepted by Ryoko, but she didn't have much combat experience. In addition, she couldn't control her kuko, which was unleashed to protect her daughter. Soon, under the investigator's attacks, Ryoko was already heavily injured. In comparison, Hatami didn't suffer any damage, but for Ryoko, it was enough to buy time for her daughter to escape.
"What's wrong? Rina." Zhang Yi lowered his head and asked when he saw Rina stop in her tracks.
"I..." Rina looked at Ryoko who was lying in a pool of blood in the middle of the street not far away, and the investigator who was closing in on her step by step. She had a troubled expression on her face as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Looking at Rina's expression, Zhang Yi naturally understood that Rina was sympathizing with her mother. Although she was a ghoul, their feelings were interlinked. Rina was too kind. This was a good point, but it could also be said to be a shortcoming. However, this was also the main reason why Zhang Yi could accept Rina.
"The other party is a ghoul. If you ask, I can save her.”Sighing, Zhang Yi gave the choice to Rina.
