Chapter 284 54: Little Boy

Chapter 284 54: Little Boy
The sun slowly sets.

The once bustling streets now look like a ghost town, with most of the people coming and going being tired workers and few residents.

"The people in this area have finally been evacuated. I'm afraid there won't be many open izakayas in the whole of Shinjuku now."

The two police officers in charge of the area had just completed their patrol and had basically confirmed that the residents had left.

"I just saw someone over there. Should I go and notify them?" a female police officer said hesitantly.

"Forget it. If he doesn't leave now, he must not believe us. If we go over to him, he might be scared. He will regret it anyway. But he has to survive to have the right to regret." The other policeman didn't care. He waved his hand and sat on the curb without any image.

The policewoman hesitated, but still asked, "Fujita, do you believe what the authorities say? I heard rumors recently that this is just a struggle for power between the extraordinary and traditional factions within the authorities."

"Nonsense, you still underestimate this level of mobilization. If we are not careful, the whole country will be paralyzed. Of course, the most important thing is that I used to follow Director Kuroki. She is not the kind of person who would sacrifice public service for personal gain. Extraordinary disasters definitely exist. We have to think positively. In the past, they appeared out of the blue. How many times have you seen early warnings?"

"It shows that the situation is not yet so chaotic that ordinary people's lives are not taken seriously. We should be thankful."

"Also, please stop reading those messy rumors online. When the extraordinary ones really overturn the table one day, it will be too late for ordinary people to regret it."

After listening to this, the policewoman just nodded silently, leaned against the traffic light pole that was still running, looked up at the two full moons that were looming in the sky, and her mood suddenly became nervous.

"Oops, I was so busy that I forgot today is the full moon. Let's go back to headquarters quickly."

Just as the two were rushing to the parking spot, a loud explosion was heard not far away.

"That direction seems to be the hospital of the Supreme Prayer Group?"

"Do we need to go over there?" the policewoman asked nervously, putting her hand on the holster.

"This is probably a battle between extraordinary people. Let's notify the headquarters first. The headquarters sent a message asking us to stay away from that area." After seeing the news, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief and quickly drove back to the police station.

Mental hospital.

A large number of Moon Polluters appeared out of nowhere and launched a desperate attack on the mental hospital.

The defense line set up by the Special Affairs Bureau here was breached in less than five minutes, and they began to huddle towards the internal buildings for defense.

This is not the first time. Ever since the Soul Calling Society was controlled, Moon Polluters would attack the Special Affairs Bureau or where Miki Inagaki was every once in a while. The number of polluters would increase with each full moon.

Tadashi, who was in charge of the defense, did not get into any confusion and continued to arrange his men in an orderly manner to rely on the buildings for defense.

Among the strange and inhuman polluter monsters, Jingquan Ringo in a sailor suit moved flexibly. Wherever she passed, the polluters exploded and died, and no one could stop her.

Even if the polluters were worthless, such killings attracted the attention of higher-level Moon Filths. A gigantic dragonfly spread its wings like steel and rushed straight towards the well.

"stop!"

The dragonfly paused for less than a second, a ray of moonlight flashed across its body, forcibly breaking Jingquan's ability, and cutting at Jingquan's body.

Jing Quan's figure was cut into two pieces, but unfortunately it was just an afterimage. The real Jing Quan had already appeared above the dragonfly at some point. He twisted the umbrella in his hand, and it instantly turned into a special spear, which fiercely pierced through the dragonfly's body and fell to the ground.

"Weak, too weak, let your girlfriend come out! Let her come out!"

He cut open the dragonfly's flesh and pulled out the green skin inside. Jingquan used the umbrella spear to pierce the opponent's body again and again like a madman. Soon, in the blink of an eye, it became a ball of rotten meat that could be made into meat patties.

The polluters beside her rushed towards her without fear. Jingquan had a blank expression on her face. She was about to vent her excess anger on them, but she saw a flash of white knife light cutting through, and a group of polluters were instantly cut in half.

"You have gone too far, young lady."

Carl waved his hand casually, and the extra-long bone knife quickly turned into a bone shield, which just blocked a Moon Filthy One who was trying to launch a sneak attack with the help of the Polluter. The two collided violently, and the leopard-like Moon Filthy One saw that his attack failed, so he jumped back and disappeared into the Polluter.

Jingquan glanced at him coldly, smelled a strong smell of alcohol that he didn't like, and without saying a word, rushed towards the place where the leopard had just disappeared.

"Girls nowadays are so rude, isn't this what the locals often call the mine system?" Carl transformed his hands into bone blades and complained while reaping the polluters around him.

“It’s 100% likely that he was driven away by the smell of your alcohol.” The devil in Carl said bluntly.

"This is called manliness." Carl became addicted to alcohol when he heard the word "wine". He pinched a filthy person with one hand as a shield, and took out a bottle of wine with the other hand and started drinking.

After finishing half the bottle in one go, Carl threw the tattered Polluter aside with some disgust: "Are you really not relatives? You both look equally disgusting."

".They are not filled with evil thoughts, but are full of the bloody smell of flesh and blood. They are completely different from us demons." Even though he has betrayed the demon, the little demon does not seem to want to have anything to do with the demon.

Are you qualified to sit at the table?
Anyone who dares to pretend to be a demon must be tired of living. Once the demon lord breaks free from his restraints, we will settle accounts with them one by one.

"Where are the others? Why am I the only one here? Where are the Heavenly Nodes and the Paladins?"

The more Carl fought, the more something seemed wrong. Where had all the people gone?

"Today is a full moon, and the crowds at the resettlement site are too dense, so the risk is even greater." Jingquan's umbrella spear pierced the leopard to clear a path, then he came to Carl and skillfully pulled out the green skin of the leopard and neatly cut it into eighteen pieces.

Carl couldn't help but whistle. He admired Jingquan for his decisive action.

In other words, were most of the people assigned to protect the evacuated civilians? This was fine, since he was used to fighting alone anyway, and he didn't believe that the Supreme Saint would not make backup plans for such an important place.

After all, Miki Inagaki is the real core of this plan.

"Jingquan, is Mr. Karl with you?" Tianshiro asked through Jingquan's earphones.

"There is a drunkard." Jingquan said truthfully.

"That's him. The drone detected that more than a dozen Moon Filths were coming. Haha, maybe they realized that today's full moon is the last chance to stop us. They have gone completely crazy and planned their physical strength. The Polluters just let them come over and leave it to us to deal with."

"The headquarters and resettlement site were also attacked simultaneously, so for a short period of time, we can only rely on ourselves."

"Understood, Captain, be careful."

"I'm not in danger here, but you, don't go too deep. I don't have time to stare at you right now."

Jingquan could imagine that Tokyo, which was already in a panic, had probably been frightened into chaos by this large-scale wave of polluters.

Carl lit a cigarette, pressed a polluter to the ground with one hand and smashed it to pieces, then finished the cigarette in one breath and let out a muffled roar. In an instant, a large number of bone spurs stabbed out from the ground like sharp knives, instantly clearing out the nearby polluters.

"Save some strength." Jingquan mentioned, and then attacked the few filthy people who were already vaguely recognizable.

"I really should save my energy. This broken place can't absorb much energy that is useful to me." Carl looked at the slightly dim red five-pointed star on the back of his hand, and casually threw out a bone shield and a bone spear, ready to use the shield piercing flow to save energy and solve them one by one.

Inside the mental hospital.

Miki Inagaki put away her prayers, slowly stood up, and looked at the two Moon Initiators who had broken in at some point in time, wearing the uniforms of the Special Affairs Bureau, with a cold expression. "So, who are you representing?"

The two Moon Initiators, with their faces covered and only their eyes exposed, looked at each other.

"Lady Saint, we just want to know the reason why you vacated Tokyo. Please don't make things difficult for us."

"Why?" Inagaki Miki shook her head gently. "I have never concealed the reason. In order to avoid greater disasters, we need to solve the huge crimes committed by the Soul Summoning Society. Everything is for the continuation of the country and the people."

"Bullshit! How could there be such a huge crime under the shrine!" One person retorted excitedly. He couldn't help but draw out his standard long sword and wiped the blade with one hand, making a crackling sound of electricity. "You clearly want the Special Affairs Bureau to control this country, and you are willing to betray your ancestors and the Emperor for this!"

"The Emperor? I never even looked at him, so how can I talk about betrayal?" Inagaki glanced at the two poor fellows, "You don't want to believe that you have lived in a carefully crafted lie, so you want to find a reasonable reason to convince yourself?"

"I'll give you one last chance, Inagaki Miki. Come with us and expose the conspiracy of the Special Affairs Bureau. You will be a hero of Japan. We are even willing to support you to become a nationally supported cult—"

"That's enough." Inagaki interrupted them, his eyes were cold and there was no trace of pity on his face, "You are not worthy of being mentioned as the Supreme."

Boom——

After a short and rapid explosion and a few screams, the floor was instantly filled with dust, and the people who were still defending outside were a little overwhelmed.

"Someone sneaked in?!" Tashiro's face looked grim. He turned around and quickly rushed into the smoke and dust. Miki Inagaki must not be in any danger.

Fortunately, when she arrived at the scene, she saw Miki Inagaki, who was intact, standing in a room with collapsed walls exposed to the outside world, looking quietly at the night sky in the distance, wondering what she was thinking.

"Two Initiators have come and stolen your uniforms. I dealt with one of them, and the other one had some special abilities and has escaped." Inagaki briefly told her what happened.

"Sorry! We were not prepared enough!" Tadashi apologized hurriedly.

Inagaki didn't care: "Some abilities can't be defended against. Don't worry about it. Director Noguchi has already told me in advance. The prayer time is over. Let me pray for the salvation of these blasphemers."

After saying this, without waiting for Tadashi to stop him, he floated out barefoot and disappeared into the darkness of the battle on the front line.

Ota District.

A blond and blue-eyed boy climbed out of the water and looked around curiously.

This familiar smell, has he been here before?
Some time ago, he actually lost his "snacks" in the water. Later, because he could not sense his sister's presence, he just went with the flow and swam towards a place that felt familiar to his body.

Then I swam here.

Where did my sister go?
Does this mean that no one cares about him anymore?
Then can he return to his original form?
He wanted to try it, but he didn't dare, after all, he had been punished by his sister not long ago.

"Why is there a foreign child?"

"What country is this from? It's so cute."

"Maybe they are family members of the embassy."

As he walked aimlessly, more and more people gathered around him.

Finally, a woman saw his wet appearance and couldn't bear it, so she bought him a set of towels.

"Kid? Can you speak Japanese?"

The woman asked as she crouched closer.

The boy didn't understand and shook his head.

"So, you speak English?"

The boy understood and nodded.

"Hurry up and dry yourself, otherwise you'll catch a cold easily." The woman said in English with a slight accent and handed over the towel.

Cold? What is that?
The boy took it silently and didn't move for a long time.

Has this child become stupid?

The woman could only wipe his head herself, but it was a bit difficult to deal with his clothes, which looked completely wet. Due to the evacuation of the core area, many people had poured into Ota District and a large number of shops were under control. At this hour, it was probably difficult to find a children's clothing store that was still open.

"Child, what is your name?"

"puppy."

"Uh, a full name, not a nickname."

"puppy."

"Okay. Puppy, where are your mom and dad?"

"I only have a sister."

When the woman heard this, she immediately felt sorry for the child.

Should he be taken to the police station? But the police station is in chaos now. Can such a child be properly taken care of there? Or will he be sent to a resettlement center?
"How about I take you back to my house first, and then find a way to contact your sister?" the woman asked tentatively.

The boy actually didn't quite understand what she meant. He didn't like these two-legged animals and didn't want to get close to them. If his sister had clearly forbidden him to do so, he would have wanted to try them long ago.

But she seemed to have just said that she could help me find my sister?

That’s right, my sister seemed to have said that after she woke up, she would go to the society of two-legged beasts to play around. Maybe she would really find it.

"Ah."

The puppy nodded.

"My name is Ogawa Ayami (Ito Makoto's ex-girlfriend), I live nearby, uh, I'm going to buy some food first, you have to hold my hand tightly, don't let the people in the convenience store squeeze you away."

"No one can push me away." The puppy said seriously.

Xiaochuan smiled and didn't take the child's words seriously.

The puppy frowned. He held Xiaochuan's hand but didn't dare to use too much force, for fear of accidentally squeezing or breaking it.

In his impression, except for the one who could breathe fire, the others were all weak.
