Chapter 233-03: Mother Goddess Integration
"The missing person's name is Lisa. She is an international student from Europe. The trace identification department found traces of suspected supernatural fighting in the missing person's room. It is determined that there is a 50% probability that it is related to the supernatural, so she was included in the supernatural case."
"When I was investigating, I found traces of other extraordinary people monitoring nearby, so I think this is almost certain."
After listening to Ozaki's story and combining it with the documents he had received in advance, Guan Junyan had a rough outline in his mind.
"Senior, wasn't there a saying before that killing a Moon Initiator could make one become a new Moon Initiator or evolve one's own abilities?"
"Yes, it was quite a while ago. After it was disproven, not many people mentioned it anymore." Ozaki recalled and nodded.
"But other Moon Initiators in the wild may not think so. From what I see, it doesn't look like the work of the Mother Goddess Unity, because they don't care about being exposed. If they really want to kill or capture people, it is unlikely that they will restore the house."
Missing Persons Room.
Guan Junyan pointed to the tables and chairs marked with traces of restoration and said, "Of course, you taught me, Senior, that we must consider the small probability in everything, so this possibility is still there, but we can put it in the direction of non-priority investigation."
"Okay, you've put your knowledge into practice! You've almost drained all my savings." Ozaki joked.
The room was not big. Guan Junyan and Ozaki were wandering around the living room, and the remaining three were checking the bathroom in the room. Ozaki's team did not come in, but were responsible for observing the surrounding suspicious people outside.
"This international student's family must be quite wealthy, as they can rent a house like this in Bunkyo-ku." Guan Junyan was a little envious of the living space.
Ozaki just laughed and said, "This was bought by someone else."
".Didn't her family come over?" Guan Junyan asked curiously.
"This is what's interesting. The other party's family information is completely unavailable, and even the address in Europe was found to be fake after careful confirmation." Ozaki took out his mobile phone and sent him the additional information he had just received not long ago.
After reading it, Guan Junyan slowly lost himself in thought, thinking about various possibilities.
[Mission activated: Please find out the truth about Lisa's disappearance]
[Mission Reward: 1000EXP]
The mission was activated. Guan Junyan was not surprised. He relied on this ability to become stronger step by step. However, this experience was surprising enough for him. It could allow him to level up twice.
He immediately perked up and started making assumptions.
"Could it be that the other party came here with a mission?"
"Well, it's possible. It's not surprising. After all, many people are curious about why the Moon Polluters and Moon Initiators are mainly concentrated in our country, while there are very few in other countries. Didn't the Paradise Node in Europa send an 'ambassador' to be stationed there? So this may also be a hidden pawn of some extraordinary force, who accidentally encountered a force that they don't deal with, and then - snap."
"Thanks to these people, otherwise our housing prices would not have risen steadily in the past few years." Ozaki laughed at himself, "So we can only infer from the traces that the other party is probably also a transcendent, but it is not clear whether she is a Moon Awakener, a Divine Grace Warlock, or a regular Awakener like you and me."
"Boss, there's something going on inside!"
Sawada's sudden loud shout scared Ozaki, but Guan Junyan was already used to it and it didn't affect him much.
"Sawada, how many times have I told you to tune up that hoarse voice of yours!" Ozaki rushed over and yelled. It was he who had trained Sawada in the beginning.
"What's going on?" Guan Junyan walked into the room and asked Kasahara who was standing aside.
Kasahara pinched a strand of white hair and said, "This is cat hair."
"Cat? The information doesn't say that the missing person has a cat, and if he has a cat, there must be more than just this one cat hair. Or has the scene been contaminated by someone?" Guan Junyan looked around and finally, his eyes fell on Jinhu Ning. It seemed that she had a cat at home.
"Shirayuki is a black cat." Jinhu Ning shook his head, then rubbed his casual clothes and pinched out a handful of hair, which was indeed black.
Kasahara put the cat's hair to his nose, sniffed it carefully, then took out an evidence bag and put it in: "I have memorized the smell. If I can get close to this cat next time, I can recognize it."
Guan Junyan didn't expect that Kasahara had such an ability, but when he considered that she could turn into a cat, this ability seemed very reasonable.
However, this clue is not very useful. After all, there is a high probability that the missing person acquired the virus from classmates or friends.
"Okay, there's no rush. It's almost twelve o'clock. Let's go eat first and see which restaurant nearby can meet the reimbursement limit for meals, okay?" Ozaki took out his mobile phone and was looking for food nearby, but suddenly he was stunned and pressed the earphones.
"Okay, I see."
Ozaki pointed outside and said, "Turn to my channel. There's a suspicious person wandering around outside."
Guan Junyan did as he was told and loaded the nearby topographic map to synchronize everyone's data.
"Sportswear, sunglasses, sun hat, judging by her figure, she should be a woman, petite. The back figure looks familiar." Ozaki pinched his chin and muttered, "Kun, you lead your team to surround from the back, and my team will surround from the front. I will be in charge of the maneuver."
Guan Junyan led the three people out of the emergency exit of the apartment, walked around for a distance, and met the suspicious person mentioned by Ozaki.
The other party behaved quite naturally, sitting outside the coffee shop reading a magazine with a cup of coffee in front of him, and there seemed to be nothing wrong.
"Isn't she hot?" Jinhu Ning complained.
Indeed, although there are parasols, most people choose to sit inside the store to enjoy the air conditioning, with only a few sitting outside. I don’t know why.
"Some extraordinary people are more sensitive to body temperature. Although they can tolerate cold and heat better than ordinary people, they may prefer different temperatures depending on their abilities. They will subconsciously make choices without even noticing. But from this point of view, they are not professional stalkers." Guan Junyan explained.
Sawada nodded vigorously. During the operation, he was always forbidden to make any sound.
"My people are approaching. They will sit near that woman in a moment. You guys be ready to cooperate." Ozaki's voice came.
Guan Junyan felt a weight on his shoulder and found that Kasahara had turned into a cat and was lying on his shoulder.
"Meow (Do you need me to slow her down?)"
"This is better. We can restrain her the moment she starts to attack." Guan Junyan nodded. Kasahara jumped away and started walking towards the cafe like a real wild cat.
"Can you understand cats talking?" Jinhu Ning seemed very interested in this ability.
"That's not the sound of a cat's meow. I can't understand a real cat's meow." Guan Junyan shrugged.
Outside the cafe, the woman took a sip of coffee, glanced at a "couple" who seemed to be having a quarrel, adjusted her sunglasses, and continued to read the magazine, as if she didn't notice anything.
However, when the couple was about to sit down, the woman's lips moved slightly, and the parasol at the couple's location suddenly closed, instantly blocking the view of the two people inside.
The woman immediately turned around and ran, and Kasahara, who was still some distance away, chased after her.
"on!"
Although I don't know how the other party found out, it is undoubtedly 100% certain that there is something wrong with this woman.
The parasol was obviously only able to catch people off guard. The two extraordinary people inside destroyed the umbrella and broke free in less than two seconds, but they had already lost their target.
"This way!"
Guan Junyan, who caught up with him, said casually.
"The other party entered the mall and I lost sight of the target," said Ozaki.
"Meow!"
"Kasahara is chasing very closely, but the other party has a method similar to teleportation."
"Boss!"
"What the hell—bang"
Inside the mall, a monster jumped down from the second floor and blocked their way.
A few unlucky civilians were torn to pieces, and the rest of the people screamed in panic, crawling and tumbling as they fled in all directions.
"Moon Polluter, in broad daylight?!" the two members of Ozaki's team behind him shouted in surprise.
"They are people unified by the Mother Goddess. Get ready for a fight. Kasahara, don't force yourself if you can't catch up. Don't let them lead you into an uninhabited area. Rikiya, Ning!" Guan Junyan pulled out a standard knife and observed the possible weaknesses of the Moon Polluter in front of him.
The Mother Goddess Unity is an organization composed of a group of suspected high-level moon polluters. They do not have the ability to reproduce or make the earth moon-desertified, but their combat power is relatively strong.
Nishiki Hu Ning untied a disc from his belt, pressed the start button and threw it out. The extraordinary alarm sounded, covering the entire mall, and a red exclamation sign was holographically projected.
"No corresponding data. It's a guy who has never appeared before." Sawada put away the identification device and took out his weapon.
The monster looks like a mantis with long double-blade arms. It is black and red all over. There are about seven heads from the navel to the back. They are all pale human heads with white eyes and tears of blood. There are sawtooths wriggling in their round mouths. But if you look closely, it is easy to find that it is a mimicry, and the real heads may be mixed in.
"It's better to be safe. I'll try it first." There is no clear-cut classification of monster levels. According to internal habits, they are called the simplest small monsters, big monsters, and bosses. Guan Junyan likes this classification very much. It is similar to ordinary monsters and elite monsters. Bosses are further divided into big and small bosses.
Judging from the aura of this guy in front of me, he is definitely an elite monster that tends to be offensive, so we can't be careless.
The real world is not the kind of place where I chop you once and your health bar drops twice. It is possible that your limbs will be broken or you will even lose your combat power! It is worse than wandering in the soul.
The only benefit is
"rather!"
Guan Junyan shouted and launched a charge.
Jinhu Ning put a shield on Guan Junyan, and then put one on himself. No matter what, the support must protect himself.
For some unknown reason, the monster's head disappeared from the back and was pulled out from the buttocks like a conveyor belt. It then began to spin, and as it spun, it sprayed something like a poison needle at Guan Junyan.
"I will never eat conveyor belt sushi again." Nishikido Ning complained.
Guan Junyan dodged the monster's blade arm, used the force to climb up, and chopped off its head with one blow.
The monster was not affected. A large number of tentacles suddenly appeared from its severed head, tightly wrapping around Guan Junyan's knife, and some even climbed up his arms.
Guan Junyan immediately gave up the knife, broke off a few tentacles in his hand, and smashed one of the heads with his fist. Without waiting for the tentacles inside to burst out, he quickly moved away.
"Kazuichi, be careful!" Ozaki suddenly shouted in the headset.
One of the members of Ozaki's team who was ready to provide support at any time was stunned for a moment, only to see the shadow under his feet suddenly enlarged. The next moment, there was a loud bang, and he had no time to react and was smashed into a pulp.
“Kazuichi!!”
Another female team member screamed.
She had no time to feel sad for others. Before she could finish her words, a long knife pierced into her chest from behind. As she looked in disbelief, the knife was pushed upwards, and the upper torso and head split in half, like a cross-section of a human body. Her body suddenly lost support and fell limply to the ground.
In a blink of an eye, two people were killed.
"Three polluters."
Guan Junyan's pupils dizzied. He pulled out his spare standard knife, took a deep breath, and formed a triangle formation with Sawada and Ning, keeping a wary eye on the monsters in front of them.
Jin Hu Ning's face turned pale, she had difficulty breathing, and her fists were clenched tightly. She regretted not giving everyone else a shield.
"This is a fucking trap!" Sawada cursed.
