Chapter 23: Meteorites and the "Vampire Murder"
A drizzling yellow plum night
A truck approached from a distance, and when it reached the bottom of a bridge, the driver listened because he was about to answer the phone. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Hi ~ Hi ~ I see, please rest assured. The goods will be delivered by tomorrow afternoon! β
"Yes~Yes~ I see!"
"Really, we're still delivering goods outside so late, but the president is still urging, it's really annoying!"
"Who's to say no, who wants to run outside on a big night. When I'm done this year, I can retire next year. β
Hanging up the phone, the middle-aged driver listened to the words of another middle-aged man sitting in the passenger seat and threw him a cigarette, then lit a cigarette and rolled down the window to get some air, but at this moment......
"Wow, ahh~"
"Wow, ahh~"
"Huh? What was that? The middle-aged driver listened suspiciously.
"It looks like the sound of a baby crying?!" The middle-aged man listened carefully for a while and came to a conclusion.
"I guess we can pick up a grandson and go home!" The middle-aged driver joked.
"Don't guess, just go down and see." The middle-aged man waved his hand, then opened the car door and walked down. The middle-aged driver also temporarily turned off the engine, got out of the car and followed the middle-aged man towards the source of the sound, a bridge hole with dense trees and vines.
"Ah~"
"Save~"
A sudden flash of light under the bridge shone on the bodies of the two middle-aged men, and then two terrible cries rang out. The two middle-aged people never came out of the bridge again, only the trucks on the road that kept flashing emergency lights showed that something extraordinary had happened here......
Super-guts command room
"This is the sixth time that the blood of the victims has been sucked dry! On the Internet, everyone calls this a 'vampire murder incident'......" Mai looked at the information sent from the police station and reported it to everyone with some fear.
"Once or twice may have been a coincidence, but now this is the sixth incident...... "Koda said with a solemn face.
"Because even the police can't find any clues about mortals, so they handed it over to us for investigation?" Kaishi asked Koda.
"Well~ Anyway, it's our super-guts' job to protect the safety of the citizens! I don't care who the other party is, I must bring him to justice! Captain Kibi looked at the information, clenched his fists and ordered: "Aoba, Nakajima, you go to Nagano Prefecture immediately; Mai, inform Ryo who is on vacation to rush to the scene immediately! β
"Understood!" The two men who received the order nodded and turned to leave.
"Captain, what about me?" Asuka looked at the departing team members with some envy, restless and didn't want to stay in the command room boringly.
"What are you anxious about, you're frizzy all day long as a member of the Super-guts!" After Captain Kibi finished scolding Asuka, he turned to Koda and said, "Koda, you take Asuka and Kashi to Gube Village immediately. In the morning, it was reported that a huge meteorite had fallen there, but fortunately there were no casualties. You guys go investigate what's going on! β
"Understood~!"
Asuka and the other three also got up and rushed to the hangar. On the way, Asuka smiled at Koda and Kaishin, and made the two of them look black. In this way, with Koda and Kari speechless, and Asuka excited, the Victory Condor flew out of the TPC base......
ββDividing Lineββ
"Jingle Bell~"
"Hey! I'm Yoshiyo Mimura...... What the? Mai, what did you say early this morning...... Homicide?! Isn't the murder case the police's responsibility? You can't just ...... because I'm close to my life."
Dressed in home clothes and wearing an apron, he was obviously cooking breakfast, and wanted to hang up the phone, but suddenly the person of conversation was changed to Captain Hibi.
"Well, this is not just a murder. There are cosmic people! β
"What? Cosmic people?! Got it, I'll be there right away! As soon as he heard the appearance of the "cosmic man", Liang hurriedly responded. Ran to the kitchen and sighed at the burnt omelette, then took off his apron and went into the bedroom to change into a super-guts uniform and leave the house.
"Captain, is it really okay for you to fool Sister Liang like this?" Mai asked Captain Kibi.
"Ahem~ After all, it happened suddenly, who would have thought that the 'vampire murder incident' and the meteorite fell on the same day, there is a shortage of manpower~ And I think Liang should be able to understand! Kindness...... It should be ......," Captain Kibi said, as if he didn't even believe what he was saying, and his voice gradually became quieter
β¦β¦
"We have arrived at the scene and the investigation is now underway ......"
A police officer reports to his superiors on the on-board police radio.
"I'm sorry, I'm a member of the Super-guts, where did the Cosmos go? Please evacuate the citizens as soon as possible! Ryo, who rushed to the scene out of breath, asked the police who were maintaining order.
"Cosmic people?" The policeman looked at Liang suspiciously
"Yes!"
"What are you talking about? There are no cosmic people here! β
"And what are you investigating?"
"It's the 'vampire' who has appeared!" The policeman said to Liang.
"Oh~ Is it still that incident......"
"I guess it's a bloodthirsty pervert! The means are really ruthless~"
"I see, it wasn't the cosmic who did it." Liang nodded, and at the same time silently complained about Captain Hibi. At the same time, Captain Hibi, who was in the super-guts command room, sneezed several times in a row.
"Is it a cold?" Captain Hibi rubbed his nose with a puzzled expression......
Just as Liang was about to leave, the Sailet patrol car pulled up outside the cordon, and two men in super-guts uniforms got out of the car. Seeing them, Liang immediately walked angrily towards the Seret car.
"Eh~ Nakajima, I feel that this place is a little scary......" Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Liang with an angry face coming over, and Aoba immediately reminded Nakajima.
"Is there one? It's just to assist the police in their investigation, so it's not a big deal. It's a pity that Nakajima misunderstood what Aoba said about "horror", and kindly patted Aoba on the shoulder and comforted him.
"Assisting the police in their investigation? No big deal? β
A female voice sounded, Nakajima's face stiffened when he heard this, and he turned his head tremblingly and turned his head to see Liang wearing a super-guts uniform with an angry face staring at Aoba and Nakajima with his hands on his chest.
"Didn't you say that there are cosmic people? Ran away?! β
"Eh~ this ......" Aoba scratched his head again and again.
"What's going on with that call?" Liang asked, smiling.
"Ah~ I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm afraid you won't come if you don't say that......" Nakajima said with a "serious" face.
"En~Yes! In fact, it was the police who asked to help them investigate. Aoba also echoed in a low voice, after all, it was not good for the police to hear this.
"I see." Liang nodded, his anger subdued slightly. Aoba and Nakajima breathed a sigh of relief, and who knew that the next sentence of the conscience was, "Since there are no cosmic people, then I will go first." β
"Ah~ No, no, no, please wait a minute." Seeing that Liang was leaving, Nakajima hurriedly stopped him. After all, the super-guts soldiers are divided into two ways first, and there are not enough personnel.
"Why don't we help them, and everyone will go separately to search. If there were cosmic people or something, they would have left traces. Aoba took out the information displayed by PDI and said to the two.
"Traces ......"
Not far away, near a tree vine, a little girl picked a few red flowers and walked away quickly.
"This flower is very beautiful~" Liang said with a smile as he looked at the flowers growing on the vines.
"Liang, did you find anything?" Nakajima's inquiry interrupts Ryo's attempt to pick the flowers.
"No, I didn't find anything, I'll go to the other side." Liang withdrew the hand that wanted to pluck the flowers, pursed his lips in response, and turned to walk away.
"If you can't find any traces like this, is it really that there are no cosmic people or something?" Liang who met with Aoba said dissatisfiedly.
"Eh~ seems to be like this, that's right......" Aoba replied, and then turned his head unnaturally. However, at this moment, Aoba saw a little girl standing across the road, and the little girl was holding a few red flowers in her hands and lowered her head, not paying attention to the passing vehicles and slowly crossing the road.
"Danger!" Aoba screamed and quickly ran towards the little girl, and Ryoya, who was a step slower, ran over to block the passing car.
"I'm sorry!" After Aoba carried the little girl off the road, Liang apologized.
"It's dangerous to run the road! Did You Know? Aoba reprimanded the little girl.
"What's the matter!" Liang glared at Aoba, and then comforted the little girl, "Little sister, where is your home?" β
"Over there!" The little girl said casually pointing in one direction.
"Then, the investigation here will be handed over to you and Nakajima, and I'll send her home first." Liang picked up the little girl and said to Aoba.
"Hey! Good ......"
"Huh?" Aoba just wanted to say something, but was glared at by Ryoicchi. When the words came to his mouth, he was swallowed by Aoba.
"No...... It's nothing...... Just leave it to us here. Aoba nodded.
"Humph! Then I'll go first. After saying that, Liang turned around and hugged the little girl and walked in the direction the girl pointed.
The few red flowers that the little girl was holding seemed to be laughing at the green leaves, swaying in the wind......
