Tick Tick Woo Woo Woo Woo
At four o'clock in the afternoon, it was the evening rush hour after work, and people were coming and going on the streets. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Due to the existence of the eight-point taboo, in this world, the time to get off work is relatively early.
On the sidewalk, there was a thin figure with his head hanging down, walking numbly.
Touch!
"Hey, did you ignore someone if you hit someone?" the group said angrily, but the figure didn't seem to hear his words, and walked straight forward.
Not far away, on a zebra crossing, the pedestrian's green light flashed rapidly, turning crimson after a while.
The shepherd did not care about it, but stepped on it.
Tick - Tick -
A truck was greeted head-on, and the driver honked his horn frantically.
This attracted a lot of people's attention, and as the distance shortened, some pedestrians covered their mouths and exclaimed.
Bang!
At this moment, a large hand pulled the shepherd back.
Whewββ
A false alarm!
"Xiao Shou, you almost got hit!" Yan Ming said loudly, his eyes staring at Mu Shou, "I've heard about it, and I know that you have waited a long time for this day and made a lot of preparations. β
"Brother Ming!" the shepherd raised his head, his eyes slightly red, and tears rolling.
"Xiao Shou..." Yan Ming's eyes fluctuated, he understood what the failure of awakening meant to the pastoral guard, as if his faith had collapsed.
"Let's not talk so much, let's go back first. Yan Ming patted him on the shoulder, with a headache, who would have thought that this kind of thing would happen.

Jiangcheng No. 1 Research Institute, Top Secret Department.
Cracking sound!
In front of a computer, the short-haired girl Ye Zixuan was fast, and databases appeared in her eyes.
Squeak!
The small door was pushed open, and Ding Sanmu walked in with a notebook.
"Xuanxuan, how's it going?"
"It's strange that, judging by the energy stored in his body, the awakening shouldn't have failed. Ye Zixuan pressed enter, and a ripple map was displayed.
Looking at the unique crazy upward curve, Ding Sanmu frowned.
"How so? This has never happened before!"
"Doctor, we're going to inform him to come..."
"No, just wait for observation and study. Ding Sanmu interrupted Ye Zixuan's words, "Okay, I'll go out to check the information first." β
"Hmm!" Ye Zixuan nodded.
Touch!
When Ding Sanmu closed the door and left, Ye Zixuan looked at the screen silently, and her clear eyes like amber under her eyelashes were smiling, and she whispered softly.
"What an interesting test subject. β

Bang bang bang!
"Xiao Shou, Xiao Shou?" Bai Guimei knocked on the door anxiously, but no matter how she shouted, Mu Shou just didn't make a sound.
"Auntie, let Xiao Shou be quiet alone, he will figure it out. Yan Ming said on the side.
Bai Guimei covered her mouth, and tears fell instantly, "This is Xiao Shou's dream, why is this happening..."
"Auntie, there will be a way, there will be a way. Yan Ming was at a loss, so he had to be comforted.
Bai Guimei looked at the door and suddenly froze, and the silence was gradually spreading.
The shepherd in the room was curled up in the corner, his hands on his knees, his eyes blank, the sunlight shining through the window but not helping him to expel the darkness, the sun was setting, and the night was falling!
"Why! Why!" the shepherd cried out in his heart, his hands clenching his trouser legs involuntarily.
"Don't be afraid, Daddy will protect you!"
"Save this kid!"
A sentence appeared in the mind of the shepherd like a nightmare, the shepherd covered his ears in pain, he waited for ten years, he fought for ten years, in order to awaken the day of Bai Ling, without Bai Ling, how he became a hunter, how to avenge his father!
"What should I do?"
After a long time, the shepherd said.
Bump! Bump!
At this moment, there was another knock on the door.
"Xiao Shou, you've been in it for an hour, and you're almost ready to eat, aren't you going to open the door yet?" Yan Ming's voice floated.
The shepherd glanced up at the wooden door, then lowered it gloomily.
Bumper!
Yan Ming's knock on the door became more and more urgent, and his voice was raised a lot, "You bastard, hurry up and come out for me, don't let Auntie worry too much!"
But the more this happened, the closer he came, and he seemed to be immersed in his own world.
Smack!
Yan Ming began to slam the door.
"Xiao Shou, you coward, come out of here!"
"Isn't it just a failed awakening?"
"What's so scary about that?"
"Are you going to hide in there for the rest of your life?"
"Bastard! This is not the little Mamoru I know! The little Mamoru I know is strong and brave! never afraid of failure, never afraid of challenges!"
"What the hell are you afraid of?"

"En-en-en-" The shepherd gasped violently, and the stern words smashed into his heart like a hammer.
"Mamoru Ko...
On the sofa outside the door, Bai Guimei was watching worriedly, and Yan Song on the side said to her, "Let the children solve it themselves, Xiao Shou will be fine." β
"Old Yan, I'm afraid that Xiao Shou will drill the horns. Bai Guimei couldn't calm down.
"You give it to me..."
Squeak!
Just as Yan Ming was about to smash another punch, the door was opened, and Mu Shou stood expressionlessly, the tears on his face were faintly visible.
"Hey, you're finally willing to come out?" Yan Ming embarrassedly put away his fist dancing in the air, and smiled, in fact, he wasn't angry, he just wanted to provoke this kid out.
"Xiao Shou!" Bai Guimei hurriedly stood up.
"I'm sorry, Mom, for worrying you. The shepherd apologized.
"It's okay, as long as you're okay. Bai Guimei hugged her child tightly and comforted her softly, tears falling uncontrollably.
Since Mu Yu left, this child has been carrying too many things. Originally, he was lively and cute, sunny and cheerful, but after the accident, he became taciturn, and he didn't even have a playmate except for Yan Ming!
Every day he spends his days studying and exercising, like a fire in the air.
Bai Guimei knew that this was not normal, and she persuaded her several times, but the shepherd still did it.
Now that the bad news came, it was no wonder that he almost collapsed.
In life, how many decades can you work like a mad demon for a goal.
"Xiao Shou, it's just that the awakening failed, it's not that you don't have a chance. Yan Song persuaded at the right time. "You go to the Internet and see how many failed people awaken in the future, and there are many powerful hunters among them!"
"As long as you don't give up, you have a chance!"
"Uncle Yan, I know. The shepherd suddenly smiled, his eyes full of determination.
"Heh, this is the little shou I know, never be discouraged!" Yan Ming clenched his fists and said vigorously.
"Uncle Yan, I want to enter the rescue team reserve! Tonight!" Mu Shou dropped a bombshell, leaving the three people present stunned.
