Afternoon.

It's winter, and even though the sun is shining, it doesn't contain a trace of warmth.

Jiang Yifan and Han Feng, who were wearing a rental suit, came to the funeral home to attend the mourning service as scheduled.

As soon as he entered the venue, although he was dressed in black clothes, there was still a figure that stood out from the crowd, attracting Jiang Yifan's attention...

A tall man of 1.9 meters, a burly figure who holds up his suit to a bulging body.

and, that familiar sense of oppression.

Who else could it be but Shizhen?

Perhaps sensing that someone was looking at him, Shi Zhen subconsciously turned his head to look over.

After discovering that it was Jiang Yifan, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he gently bowed his head to signal.

Jiang Yifan, who knew that this was not the occasion to speak, did not take the initiative to walk over, and also nodded to greet him.

After that, he followed Han Feng to find a corner and waited silently for a while, until an elder who served as the host appeared, and the mourning meeting began immediately.

As the presiding elder, he first expressed his gratitude to everyone present for coming, and then told the life story of the deceased.

This did not last long, as the deceased was not yet thirty years old.

But this is not a very long story, but it touched Jiang Yifan a lot:

On a winter night 28 years ago, a middle-class family from a scholarly family welcomed a newborn baby.

According to the expectations and plans of parents, when the child grows up, he should become a doctor or a lawyer.

But...

A fire, but it changed the original trajectory of life...

In the sea of fire, which was so fierce that it seemed to burn through the night, the boy, who was gradually confused, successfully held the hand of the firefighter.

But his parents did not escape the engulfment of the flames.

And because of this...

When the child grew up and filled in the college entrance examination volunteer, he originally wanted to be a firefighter, not an undercover investigator with a high risk factor.

However, because of his best friend in high school, he changed his volunteer.

Despite the high risk of an undercover investigator, there is always a combination of risk and opportunity, and in contrast, an undercover investigator is promoted very quickly.

Often, after completing a years-long undercover assignment, you can apply for a transfer to a vacant position and go straight to retirement.

Therefore, his best friend broke out a very serious conflict with his family.

The former is young and frivolous, and the picture is splendid and glorious; The latter licks the love of calves and asks for peace.

At last...

He changed his wish and applied for the undercover investigator exam.

Because in the city where they are located, there is only one place to apply for the undercover investigator examination.

His results were friendlier than his best, so he naturally squeezed him down.

At that time, his best friend, who couldn't understand his intentions, was angry and cut off contact with him directly.

And all this, he silently carried alone...

Now...

The man who couldn't cry the most in the room was his best friend back then.

Next to his left hand is a gentle wife who gently wipes away tears with a handkerchief.

Between his right palm, the ignorant boy he was holding was his lovely three-year-old son.

The little boy pursed his lips tightly, his two stubby eyebrows squeezed together, and looked up at the man in bewilderment.

Obviously, the boy doesn't understand why his father, who is omnipotent in his eyes, has become a crybaby at this moment.

Maybe when he grows up...

will understand the romance of sincere friendship.

And...

The value of a perfect family.

It's like the teenager who wanted to apply for the undercover investigator exam despite the opposition of his family.

Later, because his first choice was not on the list, he entered an ordinary university and studied an ordinary liberal arts major.

After graduating, he worked as a logistics officer at the local fire department in his hometown.

And the girl who had been dating for four years in college, a year after graduation, attended his wedding and served as a bride.

The following year, the two had the crystallization of love...

And watching his children grow up and become a new father, he slowly understood his parents' feelings against him at the beginning.

He has also been relieved of his best friend's behavior of tampering with the trajectory of his life, and looks forward to waiting for his undercover mission to end, and he must make that kid drunk.

It's just that...

Unexpectedly, what I was waiting for was bad news.

The last conversation between the two stopped at the quarrel after the college entrance examination.

When he heard the news last night, he couldn't sleep all night.

At dawn, the ashtray in the living room had so many cigarette butts that it overflowed.

Instead of crying, he thought quietly all night.

He couldn't understand what kind of mood that 10 years ago, a teenager of his age made the decision to exchange his life with him.

Yes, swap lives.

If there is no 'betrayal' from a close friend, then the portrait erected at this moment will be himself.

And the one who is accompanied by his wife and children and cries into tears is his best friend.

Maybe...

Orphaned at an early age, he knew the value of a successful family the most, so he made that decision in the first place...

...

After telling the story of his life, under the auspices of the elders, all of them stood in silence.

Then, in the mournful mourning music, everyone went to the statue in turn to lay wreaths.

In the meantime...

Jiang Yifan noticed that there was a tall figure wrapped in bandages at the door, who was helped in and walked in.

It wasn't people who came in, but demons.

[Wind Chasing Werewolf, B+ Grade Wind Demon Spirit]

[Resembling a wolf, standing on two feet, with a body of blue-white supple hair, the hair on the back is more green, and the belly is more white around the extreme.]

When it runs quickly, the hair on its body blown by the wind will look like a fluttering cloud, which is elegant in an instant.

The 'Wind Chaser' clan has a rare dual racial ability, but most of them can only awaken one of them, and only a few lucky ones can awaken two at the same time.

Racial Ability (1) 'Chasing Wind and Electricity':

When the wind blows in the surrounding environment, the supple blue-white hair will automatically pull the wind element around it, causing it to attach to it, increasing its running speed and agility.

In the event of a storm, the Werewolf will receive an extremely terrifying speed blessing, which can be compared to the speed of the wind.

Racial Ability (2) 'Catching the Wind and Shadows':

Manipulating the air to flow in reverse to restore the dissipated odor to a certain extent for tracking. 】

[Its pre-form is a C-level 'Wind Chaser']

The Wind Chasing Werewolf, supported by two other humanoid spirits, staggered to the statue.

The broad clawed palms with sharp long armor gently rubbed the young face in the photo, and the tip of the nose twitched with sobbing.

"Ahh

After a long time, it raised its head and let out a long howl when the demon beside it motioned for it to leave.

And the wound caused by this was torn again, so that the white bandage was smeared red...
