didn't delay too long, Izumi Shinichi and his parents decisively chose to start the return journey after lunch.

- There is no nostalgia, even for Izumi Shinichi's parents.

Although they came out to travel together, relax their minds, and cultivate the relationship between husband and wife, this trip not only did not let them relax their minds and feel how beautiful life was, but it was also thrilling and scared enough.

Especially knowing that there is some kind of terrible cannibal creature in this world, it has a strong camouflage ability, and can even replace the identity of others......

They themselves had almost fallen into the Dao, and their son had basically attained the Dao, and his right hand had been replaced by a parasitic beast......

In all fairness, even a person with a lot of nerves, in the face of such a thrilling unfolding, will never feel that this journey can be so beautiful. Although Izumi Nobuyuki and his wife's love and tolerance for their son can make them accept the existence of the parasitic beast in their son-

After all, it had already eaten their son's right hand and replaced it, so was there really any other choice now?

Is he going to cut off his son's right hand? Or are you going to report it to the authorities and hand over your son to the state?

It's unrealistic, and there's no other way than to accept tolerance.

- But this does not mean that they can accept the existence of other parasitic beasts, especially because they have had a terrible encounter and left a psychological shadow, and they now have a somewhat noisy feeling.

To put it simply, the couple now always feels that everyone outside may be a man-eating monster under the skin. Unless they return to their familiar home, they will not be given any sense of security......

Therefore, there is no reason to continue to stay in unfamiliar places.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that Izumi Shinichi was unconscious, they would have had to stay for a day, and they would have been preparing to go back yesterday.

But in fact, it's okay, with an extra day of buffer time, at least the family has a chance to be open and honest with each other, so there is no gap between them......

And with Izumi Shinichi, a family of three, who left the local area by boat, there are actually two people, Xia Ran and Uda Mamoru, as for the reasons, they are different, but they can generally be attributed to-

Izumi Shinichi still has a family, is still in school, and has a circle that he can't give up, so it's not realistic for him to drop everything and try to keep up with the actions of the other two. The other two, however, can go anywhere.

Because Mamoru Uda is no longer a student, he just divorced not long ago, which can be regarded as a career and love...... No, both failed adults. However, it is not the kind of social animal who is so busy that he can't take a break and has no human rights, but he can still arrange his own time.

Although Xia Ran is still a student, he was originally arranged as a fictitious identity, and he actually has nothing to worry about in this world, and he was wanted not long ago. That's why he doesn't care where he's going, as long as it's safe enough and has the right opportunity to hunt the parasitic beast.

And the side of the protagonist Izumi Shinichi is obviously the most suitable hunting ground, and parasitic beasts emerge in an endless stream, one after another to send human heads.

To be reasonable, Xia Ran feels that this is really unscientific-

Obviously, in other places, the number of parasitic beasts is very consistent with the number of their populations, and for the sake of concealment, they often do not overlap the territorial range, so as not to cause frequent murders and disappearances in the same area, which will attract great attention from human society.

But in the city where Izumi Shinichi is located, it's not the same at all, parasitic beasts seem to refresh on time, and there are always special varieties.

Not the beasts that can be easily solved, and although they disguise themselves as humans, they still appear to be mechanical and rigid, and their instincts are greater than rational, but the type that is more human-like than humans, more dangerous than humans.

Parasitic beasts such as Ryoko Tamiya will begin to explore the meaning of their own species......

- It's a miracle.

In this regard, Quan Shinichi said that he welcomed it very much, after all, he did feel that the world was becoming more and more dangerous, and his parents could just be targeted by parasitic beasts when they came out for a turn, which gave him a great sense of crisis.

Having two reliable companions with him at the moment was a good thing that could not be desired, how could he possibly refuse?

As for Xia Ran's suggestion, Quan Shinichi didn't hesitate for long, so he agreed and decided to join the small team of hunting parasitic beasts. Because he has already seen that kind of thing is terrible and dangerous to human society.

Especially what happened to his parents made him unable to ignore, plus there was no reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days, it seemed that the best solution was really ...... Nip danger in the bud?

Maybe he can't clean up the parasites all over the world, but if he just hunts in the city where he lives, and ensures the safety of his parents, relatives and friends in their daily lives and travel to the greatest extent-

Izumi Shinichi felt that with the strength of the three people on his side, it was still completely possible to do it.

His parents didn't say no, and they also felt that having such a professional living nearby would make them feel more secure. Although they did not know that the two professionals were in the same situation as their son, they did not recognize one of them as a wanted criminal.

……

……

A week later.

"Ahhhh

The screams of the parasites echoed through the dark alleys.

"Boom ——!!"

But soon, in a deafening loud bang, it came to an abrupt end.

The writhing and dancing figure fell in the flames, and the pool of blood stained a large area around it, but it didn't last long before it quickly became charred under the flames, and there was no more sound.

Humming an unknown tune, Xia Ran half-knelt on the ground, slowly put the grenade launcher back into the case, and then carried it behind him.

“……”

Mamoru Uda, who was on the side, came panting just now, and just happened to see this last scene, and a big drop of cold sweat couldn't help but appear on his forehead, although this situation was not the first time he had seen it, but he still felt very impactful.

- Who is the murderer who kills without blinking!

Xia Ran didn't know what Uda Mamoru was thinking, he stood up, then walked to the edge of the corpse, squatted down and stretched out his hand, as if to check something, and then turned around.

"Alright, let's go...... According to the previous route, hurry up and get out of here, I think the police seem to have reacted faster lately. ”

"Huh? Oh oh, ok ......"

Mamoru Uda reacted, nodded his head again and again, and then turned around and left, his movements were always a little slow, not because of his comprehension or memory.

It's because he's really an ordinary person, and now even if he can muster up the courage to set up a game with Xia Ran and take the initiative, it's already the limit. As for psychological construction, it can only be said that there is really no way to do it in one step.

It can be said that every time he fights that kind of monster, he forces himself to rush forward...... But that's all there is to it, so it's hard for him to understand why Xia Ran was able to do it to this extent.

It's the other extreme, it feels like an experienced butcher is killing chickens and cows, and there are no mood swings anymore, for him, it's about finding a parasitic beast and then leading it to a suitable slaughter...... Fighting grounds.

The next operation is the same, the beginning is the parasitic beast's fight and containment, he seized the opportunity to fire a fire bomb, and the knife was used to complete the kill.

There's even a mood to hum the melody of recent pop music or something.,This kind of neat and simple direct.,Even if you've seen it several times.,Uda Mamoru will still be stunned.,There's a sense of unreality.。

Seriously, he really felt that Xia Ran was more like a cold-blooded and ruthless hunter than a parasitic beast......

Xia Ran didn't think about what was going on with the embarrassed expression of his companion next to him, he just followed the route he had planned before, quickly entered with Mamoru Uda from the nearest sewer manhole cover nearby, and then left this remote area.

After all, the official forces seem to be active recently, and the reaction speed is a little strange-

And no matter how much practice makes perfect, compressing the time to the point that he can kill a parasitic beast in less than ten seconds, the movement will not be too small, so the official personnel may arrive at the scene of the crime at any time.

Because in many cases, Mamoru Uda's mobility ability caused him to always be a little late to arrive at the scene at the scheduled time, so Xia Ran could only use the grenade launcher to fight quickly......

The best scenario that was originally expected was that at least two people would act at the same time and quickly cut off the enemy's head through the parasitic beast's transformation attack, and there would be no movement in silence.

After leaving the previous area and taking another long detour, the two returned to their base camp, which was an apartment not far from the community where Izumi Shinichi lived, which they had rented for the time being.

After relaxing and relieving the discomfort caused by the long-distance run just now, Mamoru Uda began to ponder the troublesome question of what to eat today.

Xia Ran opened his system interface and directly used up a precious point he had just gotten and added it to his physique attributes.

Now his basic attribute has become-

"Strength: 5"

Dexterity: 12

"Constitution: 7"

"Intelligence: 7"

"Spirit: 20"

"Perception: 7"

Because the reward for hunting parasitic beasts has been greatly weakened, although he has hunted a total of eight parasitic beasts with his companions during this time, the total number of free attribute points obtained is only two.

He added a point to his strength, allowing himself to secure the use of the grenade launcher with one hand. And the other point is just added to the physique to ensure that the output of the parasitic beast will not be dragged down due to physical problems.

It's just that the shrinkage of this kill reward is simply outrageous, before one parasitic beast could get one to three free attribute points, now three or four parasitic beasts add up to one free attribute point.

There is also a point reward that has also shrunk, and now a parasitic beast only has a symbolic 100 points for Xia Ran, and it may continue to be reduced.

- The only thing to be thankful for seems to be that the parasitic beast just now exploded another key for Xia Ran.
