Chapter 185: Foraging Monsters
Chiba Makoto walked aimlessly in the bustling crowd with a fried rice cake and Maya, more than ten meters away from the stall, Maya spoke: "So that person has started... Mutated? ”
"Well," Chiba Makoto nodded, looked at the map in his hand, and said, "The frequency with which he draws electricity is getting higher and higher, so much electricity is stored in the cell, it's just a mobile bomb, I don't know when it will detonate." ”
"Detonate? Will it explode? ”
"It's going to be a big monster, a big, big one." Chiba Makoto raised his finger and pointed to the lines and circles he had drawn on the map, and said, "The power supply of this recuperation center and the vicinity comes from two substations and an experimental tidal power station built on the beach, and the specifications of the underground cables are not high, and it is impossible to provide enough power to turn him into a monster, so in the final stage, he will definitely go to these three points."
Maya listened to Chiba Makoto's analysis, reached out and took out her mobile phone from her pocket, opened the notepad, and said: "At noon, I inquired, there are rumors of supernatural events in the vicinity, some people have seen terrifying black shadows, and some people have heard the beast-like roar from the ground, and then..."
"It should be him, the human form can't be exposed to high-voltage electricity, only the beast form can be used, but so far no one has seen his true face, it seems that he is very cautious." Chiba Makoto nodded thoughtfully, then realized something, turned his head, apologized, and said, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'll have to check this in the next few days." ”
Maya said nonchalantly: "This place can still come in the future, but it is not often for humans to become monsters, and I am also curious, where are you going to start investigating?" ”
"Let's first visit the residents in the neighborhood and determine the time point when the voltage suddenly decreases, and that is when Ryosuke Sanada absorbs electricity."
Chiba Makoto didn't spend much time to complete the initial investigation, as soon as he heard that it was a reporter, he rushed to complain about the inaction of the power department, and he didn't solve this problem for so long, so that the electrical appliances at home were out of order, and he didn't know who to find to compensate, which was too much.
According to residents, the power is mostly lost between 8 and 10 p.m., and there have been occasional similar situations during the day recently, which could have taken a few seconds to return to normal, but now it may take a minute or two to return to normal.
In addition, residents in different areas said that the time of power weakening is also different, Chiba Makoto marked them one by one, spent several days to visit and investigate, and the investigation report drew more than a dozen sheets of A4 paper, and completed the drawing of the power distribution map in this area.
It also depicts the process of Ryosuke Sanada absorbing electricity, from the beginning of absorbing electricity from the hotel room, to absorbing the power supply box of the hotel, and then to the transformer station, it is estimated that after a while, I am afraid that he will have to go to the power station to absorb enough electricity.
On the sea view floor of the recuperation center, Chiba Makoto and Maya sat in a private room, no one looked at the sea view, all of them looked at Chiba Makoto's hand-drawn drawings on the map, Maya raised her head after reading it, and asked puzzledly: "Isn't it okay to report the victory team directly?" Why is it so complicated? And the last Abbas, leave it to them to deal with, don't you often say that professional things are handled by professional people? ”
"If they can handle it, I won't have to be so busy" Makoto Chiba muttered in his heart, but said on his lips: "How should I tell them, I know at a glance that there is something wrong with that guy, or a biological experiment that is secretly being carried out by TPC." ”
"Yes." Maya also realized the embarrassment of their two identities, they were both cosmic people who couldn't withstand a detailed investigation, they should have been low-key, low-key and low-key, but one turned out to be a popular star, and the other was even more avoidant and met ghosts, cosmic people or something, it's simple.
Chiba Makoto sorted out the materials scattered on the table, put them in the file bag, and said: "These are the complete chain of evidence, from the investigation of ghost legends, to the power anomaly, to the discovery of non-human creatures that absorb electricity, it is completely possible..."
Before Chiba could finish speaking, he felt the floor tremble slightly, which made him stop, and the room fell silent, making 'Hum! Airplanes! The tremor became clearer.
"Earthquake?" Maya said uncertainly, no one panicked, because the magnitude of the tremor was very small, similar to a heavy truck passing by the door, and it was obvious that the epicenter was very far away.
Chiba Makoto looked at the wall behind him with a feeling, and a bad feeling came from that direction, and he quickly stuffed everything into his backpack, grabbed Maya's hand and ran out.
There was no one in the empty corridor at all, because everyone strictly followed the evacuation instructions and hid under the table, so Maya didn't understand why Makoto Chiba was running out with him.
Makoto Chiba led Maya down the stairs, explaining as he ran, "I'm afraid it's not an earthquake, I think it's probably a monster appeared." ”
"Monsters will earthquake?" This is the first time Maya has heard of this theory.
"If you drill out from the ground, the weight of tens of thousands of tons, moving your feet will cause vibration, not to mention..."Before Chiba finished speaking, he saw a mountain not far from the window 'collapsing', and large and small boulders rumbled down the mountain, bringing up a large cloud of smoke and dust, and in the cracked mountain, a huge figure that was the same color as the rock shook its body, kicked the stone under its feet, and walked out of the mountain.
"It's really a monster." Maya suddenly glanced at Makoto Chiba, so far away, she didn't need to look at it to tell that it was a vibration caused by a monster coming out of the ground, it was too powerful.
In addition to admiration, they found that after the monster came out of the mountain, it actually walked towards them, that is, this manor full of high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen integrating leisure, entertainment, and recuperation.
When the two of them ran out of the gate of the Guanhai Tower, there was already chaos outside, and there were people fleeing in all directions, no matter how big the official was, how much money they had, they were completely equal in front of the monsters, and they would not let the monsters bypass you because of any foreign objects.
"Let's run." Maya said that she was about to pull Makoto Chiba and run to the right to avoid the path of the monster.
But Chiba Makoto stood there and said, "No need to run, the monster is not coming for us, he is here to forage for food." ”
"Foraging?" Maya looked at Chiba Makoto in surprise, how did he know that the roundworms in the monster's stomach didn't know as much as he did.
Makoto Chiba looked at the luxury hotel and said, "Do you remember the person who absorbed the electricity?" The vast amount of energy stored in his body is a delicacy in the eyes of monsters who need to draw energy to survive. ”
