Two hours later.

Li Nian stood on the roof of the office building, looked at the sun that was about to set in the sky, and frowned.

"No progress......"

And rightfully so, it's a huge city.

That's still the case on his side. The talisman in his pocket hasn't reacted yet, and the three people who want to come over there are in the same situation.

As expected.

At the moment when the Dlamandz Roadbase could not move, there were only three units involved in the carpet search, so of course there was no progress in such a short time.

"Alas......"

Li Nian felt a little headache and kneaded the bridge of his nose.

His heart was a little restless.

The original expectation was to be able to find the Heartunderblade during the day.

The characteristics of that nocturnal creature, while not being able to move during the day, will also be weakened by various abilities, if you can find the other party during the day, for the current Li Nian, things will be easier.

Otherwise, when it really falls into the night, you will have to face a goal that is more than a few percent.

"MD, it's really inefficient."

In the past, during the period when he was the director of the handling bureau, any incident handled would have the cooperation of organs at all levels.

Things like the target's intelligence collation and location locking, basically he doesn't need to worry about it, the process has reached the link of his director, he only needs to set off to catch up with the destination, even if there is a change on the way, he will get first-hand information from the logistics team, and adjust the itinerary accordingly. As far as the results are concerned, this allows Li Nian to always quickly find the target and obliterate it.

Now, of course, there is no such intelligence network to provide him with information.

Only then did I have some real sense of the words that I had heard about over there, and that the world praised Mr. Cang's construction of the national intelligence system.

In the past, I didn't feel anything when I used to enjoy the benefits of the system as I should have been.

I also complained about the slight delay in the timing of the message being conveyed to me......

What do you mean by that?

"People don't always value what they have, right......"

The pupils were slightly shaken by the sunlight.

Li Nian withdrew his gaze and turned to look down.

From this high point, the traffic looks like flowing water, and the pedestrians are as small as ants.

“……”

Looking down on this condescending posture, this scene suddenly reminded him of the two girls he met last night.

It's just the age of the little ghost, but it seems that the two people who have taken on the official work of exterminating demons.

Squinted his eyes and thought for a moment.

But yes, there should be one here, too.,The kind of handling mechanism that corresponds to events in the world.。

There are organizations like the Kanto branch that are managed in an integrated manner, and there must be such an organization.

It may be necessary to touch ...... It's better to say that there will definitely be some contact in the future.

If it is based on a system built by the state, there should be a unit such as public security to provide intelligence......

…… It's useless to think about it now.

Doesn't help the situation now.

As a result, I had to find it myself.

Li Nian scratched his hair irritably.

I still walked along the wall to the other side of the roof, and jumped into the uninhabited alley between the buildings.

It's time to continue the search in the area he's tasked with.

That being said, I don't expect much to find each other before nightfall.

=====

After that, it went on for about an hour.

But there is still no clue or something.

I asked a lot of people based on the physical information provided by Oshino, but there was basically no sighting information.

If you want to hide from the sun, you will find a dark place to hide, not walking on the street, and it is normal not to be seen.

What's more, two-thirds of the time it may be that the target is not in the area where it is responsible......

Li Nian sat on the bench with his buttocks, feeling quite tired and entrusting all the weight to the back of the chair, and turned his head to look at the sky in the distance.

What poured down on the ground was a weak and feeble afterglow.

More places have been shrouded in shadows.

It feels like at this point in time, the vampire should be able to start moving.

Dramanz Luki added to the search.

Similarly, the HeartUnderblade begins to move.

In other words, the man-eating youkai can start moving.

"Tsk, sure enough, it's getting a lot of trouble."

Li Nian smacked his tongue.

This means that the residents of the area guarded by this god are under strong threat to their lives.

Even if you look at it as a human being, Li Nian, who used to be the director of the processing bureau, very much does not want to see such a situation.

It is worth mentioning that the likelihood of finding a target on his side has also improved in all aspects...... It's better to say that progress will only be made now.

On the other hand, the operation of four groups means that the search unit has to face hostile targets in its heyday on an individual basis.

To be honest, judging from the information on paper, the strength level of the other party, any of the trio has no chance of winning.

In fact, when the three of them joined forces against the enemy, they were all crushed.

Part of the reason is the cheating immortality of the other party, and the other part of the reason is undoubtedly the difference in strength.

Here's the problem.

Focusing on escaping and stalling for time, will the few people over there be able to hold up until the moment when the help arrives?

Li Nian didn't know the bottom of his heart.

It would have been better if he had found the other party himself.

At least if you have your own self-confidence, you can definitely support the support to arrive.

That's only a fraction of the odds, though.

It's more likely that any of the vampire hunters' trio will find their target.

He hoped that the person was Dlamandz Luki, because it was the quality of this guy who was also a vampire, and probably had the best chance of running away.

Bless yourselves.

To be able to find each other quickly and avoid more sacrifices, for this reason, I agree with my own decision, and I must do my part as much as possible.

Li Nian stood up, ready to find a random place to get something to eat and fill his stomach before continuing to act.

Looking around, this is a very strange place, belonging to the area that I have not been to, in terms of location, it is already far away from that home, although I remember the road I have walked very clearly, and I have a very clear sense of direction, but where I have come now, Li Nian does not know.

I didn't find a convenience store, but I saw a bakery.

The signboard reads "Furukawa Bakery" in five Chinese characters, which is probably the name of the store.

Thinking about it, just buy two breads to fill his stomach, Li Nian walked to the door and looked inside, the façade was not big, it seemed to be a private family storefront, it was not very atmospheric, but there were some very humane trinkets in some places, and because of this, it felt very warm to watch.

"Excuse me, anyone?"

"Aha~~ Someone, guest?"

Out of the room came a red-haired uncle, holding a cigarette, looking bored, without a business smile, yawning and casually walking in front of him.

Li Nian didn't mind, and stretched out his hand to point to the display case of the goods.

"Well, I want to buy something...... Anyway, there's only one flavor left? ”

When I looked over, I noticed that they were basically sold out.

Oooh...... So tasty?

"Ahh My family's business has always been taken care of by neighbors, and today there is only one left...... Well? ”

Scratching his hair as if he hadn't woken up, the uncle looked at the leftover goods sold at home in the direction Li Nian pointed, was stunned for a moment, and suddenly showed a subtle expression.

"Sure enough, this one is sold, and the rest is left......"

“…… Well? ”

"No, nothing...... Oops, it's going to be troublesome now, so Sanae doesn't know what to think when she sees it...... Wait, I think about it. ”

He rubbed his chin with a worried expression on his face.

“……”

This uncle talked to himself like this, and Li Nian didn't know how to answer.

"That's right!"

After thinking about it for a long time, his expression suddenly lit up as if he thought of something, and he slapped his palms.

"Anyway, if you sell the leftovers, you can give them to you for free."

And then he said this......

“…… Ha? ”

"Come on, come on, give it to you, it's free!"

Really knock ran to the backstage to get the bag and directly put it in a bunch and stuffed it over.

"Oh, oh!? All of these!? ”

In a hurry, Li Nian could only take it.

What's the trouble......

Looking down at the bag with a bunch of bread, and then looking up at the uncle, Li Nian didn't know what expression to come up with.

"Well, isn't that right? Give me all of these? Gratis? ”

The latter smiled at him and gave him a thumbs up.

"Yes! Thank me! ”

"I'll still pay ......"

"No, no, no! Anyway, I'll give you the rest! Good! And so it was sold out. It's so impressive! Feed! Sanae! You've sold out of bread! ”

Then he screamed and ran inside.

“……”

There are so many strange people......

Li Nian looked at the label on the display case, which read the four Chinese characters "Xianbei Bread".

I had never heard of this taste, so I took out a bread and took a bite, and I frowned instantly, and suddenly I could understand the reason why the other party could stuff all this variety of bread into himself so boldly.

It's really a senbei sandwiched in the bread, and the texture is really weird......

However, it can be regarded as a kind intention......

Li Nian sighed, turned around with the bag, and was about to leave.

However, when I passed by the counter, I still left a 1,000 yen bill.

While biting on the bread and muttering, "This is a strange taste", Li Nian walked out of the store, but he didn't notice a short-haired girl who passed by him.

The girl turned her head to look at Li Nian's back and tilted her head.

"...... guest?"

"Ah, I'm back, daughter."

At this time, the red-haired uncle came out of the room again, changed into a smiling expression, followed by a beautiful woman, and smiled softly when he saw the girl.

"Xiao Nagisa is back."

"Daddy, Mommy."

The uncle is the girl's father, and the woman next to him is his wife and the girl's mother, and from this point of view, this person looks really young.

"Is that guy already gone, it doesn't matter, it's just right, I'll tell you oh Nagisa." The uncle pointed to the empty display case of "senbei bread" and said excitedly as if showing off. "Look! All the new varieties your mother made are sold out! Do you see it! ”

"Alas...... Really, is it the guest who just went out? ”

"That's him, buy it all at once!"

"Ah, what Qiusheng said is true, it's really rare." Mom caressed her face with a very happy expression.

The girl showed a very embarrassed expression and said hesitantly.

"However, when I went out, I said that it tasted strange......

=======

"My bread tastes weird, doesn't it!? Woowoo woo ......"

Crying women ran by.

"Huh?"

Li Nian, who was nibbling on bread, stopped and looked over blankly. I don't understand what this situation is.

"Wait for me, Sanae...... Ah, it's you bastard boy! Complaining about my daughter's fart, you! ”

An angry voice came from behind him, somewhat familiar, Li Nian turned his head and saw that it was the red-haired uncle who rushed over with words that didn't look for the edge.

What are you complaining about your daughter?

When Li Nian couldn't understand the current situation, the uncle didn't explain, so he reached out and took out two breads from his bag and stuffed them into his mouth, shouting vaguely, "Sanae, I like to eat the bread you made!" "I chased after the women.

Li Nian, who was carrying the bag, stood behind blankly, completely unaware of the cause and effect of this.

After a while, he shrugged his shoulders, muttered "What a strange person", shook his head, and still took a step.

He had to keep looking for a target.
