Chapter 1: The Hunt (I)

Next Chapter

"It's evening news time, and there have been frequent disappearances of young women in Laiju City recently, mostly from late evening to late at night. According to the investigation of the police in our city, it is suspected that the criminal gang committed the crime collectively or by the 'gifted'! Please pay attention to the safety of all female citizens at night. "An LED screen in the shopping mall building is playing an incident about the recent frequent.

"The police in Liju City are really a bunch of rice buckets, the gifted people haven't appeared for many years, should this kind of crime be attributed to supernatural events? What bullshit!" a bald middle-aged man angrily scolded at the big screen, he had a beautiful daughter in her twenties at home, so she was particularly sensitive to the news.

"Hey, don't worry, man, I don't believe there will be such a rampant criminal gang in Lixuan City, maybe it's really the work of a talented person. I've also heard that the young women who disappeared suddenly disappeared without even being caught on the side of the road, so it was probably a supernatural event. A young man explained to the middle-aged man.

"If it's really a gift, I curse all the gifted to die!" The middle-aged man gritted his teeth, his facial expression was very hideous.

Vera turned her head to look at the two men who were talking, and sighed helplessly. Vera is in charge of investigating the incident tonight, but she's not a police officer. She is affiliated with a mysterious organization, the HPI, an organization that specializes in investigating and researching gifted people. This organization is not well known to the general public, but governments are funding and supporting it. Vera is now just a trainee at HPI, and she was chosen to be one of the members of the investigation because of her beautiful face and good figure. In fact, her main task is to serve as a bait, and a young and beautiful woman is just the right target for the criminal.

It's winter, and Vera is wearing a gorgeous gray mink coat with long, straight legs and brown high-heeled boots. Her delicate face was covered with heavy makeup, and now Vera looked like an urban socialite. Vera hates dressing like this, she likes to wear simple and smart clothes on weekdays, and she doesn't like to be used as a vase by men. Vera also wears a pair of brown sunglasses, which are actually a pair of eyes with a thermographic function. The HPI organization suspects that the criminal is a gifted person with stealth abilities, so they equip Vera with these glasses. But it is not very useful, some surveillance cameras also have the function of thermal imaging, but none of the city's surveillance cameras have captured transparent people, indicating that the ability of this criminal is not so simple.

Vera casually observed the crowd of people, who had been camping in the shopping mall since noon and still had no clues. However, according to the results of the organization's analysis, most of the missing women had been to the mall before they were killed. So, it's likely that criminals often squatted here.

"Vera, any clues?" a gentle, deep male voice rang out in her wireless headphones.

"Shut up, damn Lo!" Vera frowned angrily, "I'll stay here until the night, and you kid is hiding in the headquarters, aren't you?"

"You won't find any clues, it sounds like it's getting late and there are fewer and fewer people in the square. Lowe ignored Vera's complaints and continued, "I think that mysterious criminal is going to get on the move next." ”

"So what?" said Lou, though she couldn't see it, but Vera made a gesture of spreading her hands.

"You can go to the middle of nowhere, and lure him to show up. "Lowe is the official commissioner of the organization and has the authority to give orders to Vera.

"So many young women, how do you know he's going to have his eye on me?"

"Because you're the brightest woman in the crowd!" said Lowe, without any emotion, as if to state a fact.

"Shut up, I didn't expect you kid to be clever too!" Although Vera scolded Luo, she was secretly happy in her heart, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise up. Vera hung up the call with Lowe and swaggered down a remote and uninhabited road, her high-heeled boots making a crisp and loud sound on the ground, as if provoking the criminals hiding in the dark.

After walking for some reason, Vera walked near an abandoned factory. With no surveillance and no access to people, this is probably the best place for criminals to commit crimes. But wouldn't it be too unreasonable for a young woman to walk towards an abandoned factory at night and make the criminals suspicious? Vera was hesitant at first, but then she noticed that someone seemed to be following her behind her, and she could faintly hear the footsteps behind her, but when she turned around, there was no image in the thermal imaging glasses. Could it be that this criminal can really wipe out the heat emitted by his body?

Vera continued to walk, but within a few steps she felt a little dizzy, and a strange aroma filled the air that made her almost faint.

Damn, this fuck off, this guy is drugged! Vera struggles inwardly, trying not to let herself faint, and if she does, she will lose all her efforts and lose herself. She poked out a tube of yellow liquid from her coat pocket and poured it into her thigh, and for a moment she seemed to be doused with a bucket of ice water. This is the pick-me-up that the organization provided her, but she didn't expect to use it at a critical moment.

Vera held on to the railing with both hands, trying to straighten up. But then a pair of strong hands hugged her from behind, and she couldn't see them, and now Vera could be sure that the criminal was the transparent person. The transparent man stroked Vera's wavy blonde hair as he pressed Vera against the railing.

"What a beautiful woman, I've never seen a woman like this!" the transparent man whispered, letting out a gasp of excitement. Vera pretends to be drugged and allows the transparent man to violate her. The transparent man's hands gradually moved towards Vera's high and bulging breasts, gently rubbing them. Vera endured the transparent man's hands, pulling a hidden dagger from her hip as he immersed herself in her seductive body. Vera stabbed the transparent man in the abdomen, the blade slicing through his invisible cloak and stabbing him in the flesh, but only a few inches or so in advance. The muscles in the transparent man's abdomen were like a hard rock, and the dagger couldn't inflict any heavy damage on him.

Despite this, the transparent man groaned in pain, and he let go of Vera, blood gushing from his abdomen, but then vanished, and it seemed that the transparent man also possessed the ability to make other objects invisible.

Vera turned and kicked hard where the blood had gone, where the transparent man had been injured, and the heels of her high heels pierced into the transparent man's wound like a sharp blade. The transparent man screamed in pain again and took a few steps back.

"Looks like you can't take your voice out!" Vera triumphantly pointed out the Transparent Man's weakness, and the voice made the Transparent reveal his position. Vera shook off her gray mink coat and revealed a tight black combat suit. She quickly pulled out a pistol and fired a few shots into the air in front of her, but what happened next shocked Vera. The spinning bullet hovered in front of it, as if blocked by an air barrier.

Then, a tall, strong figure gradually appeared in front of Vera's eyes, and the transparent man appeared. The bullet hit him in the chest, but the man blocked it with his arm. Vera remembered what she knew about the gifted, who not only possessed special abilities, but were also physically unusually strong. Vera is also a gifted person herself, but she has not yet awakened any natural abilities, and was selected by HPI as a trainee because of her physical fitness superior to ordinary people.

"It turned out to be a female strip!" the strong man looked at Vera mockingly, "If you want to catch Lao Tzu for the bait, be careful not to be eaten by Lao Tzu!"

After saying that, the man with the ability to see through to Vera pounced. Vera pulled the trigger and drained all the bullets in the pistol, but to no avail. The transparent man just now had Vera stabbed him just because he had let his guard down, and now that he had increased the strength of his muscles, ordinary bullets couldn't penetrate his flesh at all.

Vera dropped her pistol and tried to pick up the dagger to fight him in close combat, but before she could draw it, a black shadow like a beast engulfed her. She was hugged tightly by the transparent man, and his extraordinary power made Vera feel like her bones were about to be crushed. Vera groaned in pain, but the transparent man admired Vera's struggling expression with a look of enjoyment.

"How about it, Lao Tzu's body is strong enough, right?" the man leaned his head close to Vera and whispered in her ear, "Lao Tzu's lower part is more powerful, and it will make you want to die!"

"Ahh

"I'm going to kill you bitch tonight!" the man roared angrily, but Vera couldn't hear him. A helicopter appeared above the two, and the loud roar of the propeller made Vera feel a little relieved. A man in a black trench coat jumped straight out of the helicopter.
