Chapter 15 Hunting Night

According to Xia Ran's estimation, there will not be too many parasitic beasts in this world.

And those parts that failed to parasitize and did not parasitize on humans must be crossed out. After all, their food is the same kind that has not been parasitized. The habit of supper——

The rapidly increasing cases of missing persons and mutilated murders around the world are enough to cause a huge storm.

It shouldn't be like what it is now. Although those cases of massacres and mutilation of corpses have caused a lot of noise, people are more interested in novelty, and various media just think it is fresh and has enough news value.

On the whole, although human society has paid attention to these phenomena, it is still vigilant enough, probably because the number of those cases is within the "normal" range.

So Xia Ran feels that as long as she is careful enough, avoids remote places as much as possible, and chooses public areas where people come and go, she can basically ensure her safety.

— Well, basically.

And in these days, he has also been to the school several times, trying to play the role of his assigned identity. By the way, he wants to see if the white space is specially arranged in this way. No clues found...

And staying in your own home is not absolutely safe, and you may even be more likely to be targeted because you are alone at home.

In addition, after a few simple trials, he found that the ability of the white space is very powerful and terrifying. The identity he arranged for himself was not fabricated out of thin air. Except for the complete documents and procedures on the surface, it was actually out of touch with reality.

Although he still doesn't have much interpersonal communication as before, it's not that the classmates and teachers around him don't know him at all, but they all have an impression of him, but they seem relatively unfamiliar and unfamiliar.

In the memories of those people, it seems that Xia Ran has always existed, rather than some students who just popped up recently. There is even a Chinese teacher who remembers having a special exchange with him a few days ago, chatting with each other. very pleasant memory...

Xia Ran didn't have that kind of imaginary memory, and she couldn't figure out what kind of power it was.

However, this does not seem to be the field he needs to explore now. After confirming that the school he was assigned does not seem to have hidden branches, he continued to ask for leave, and continued to use life's cheating tools to hoard strong acid.

To be honest, for some reason, Xia Ran has also mastered the method of making some discordant things, just like a certain cocktail enjoys a high reputation, and its recipe is well known.

Not only easy to use, but also powerful.

But in the end, he still didn't consider this plan, not only because of the danger or unspeakable harmony, but also because he was only going to strictly follow fundamentalism at present, and he didn't want any mistakes in this matter.

At least he only remembered that in the plot, strong acid can clearly corrode the body of the parasitic beast, causing corrosive damage to it, making its consciousness inconsistent, behavior out of control, and becoming chaotic...

……

……

Nearly a week passed like this.

That night, he was clicking the mouse on the computer, looking at a document that had just been sent page by page.

"Quan... Shinichi..."

Finally, he saw a name, and with a slight twitch in his heart, he was immediately sure that it was the name he was looking for.It's just that although this name is not a bad street, it is not unique in the world, so he saw more than one at a glance.

Xia Ran compared all the information she tried to recall. The high school students who are still in school should be around the age of seventeen or eighteen, and their parents should still be alive at this time... Then exclude other options that do not meet the requirements, and initially Target locked.

If there is no accident, that is the person he is looking for, but it seems that he is not in this city.If he wanted to find the other party, it would be a little more troublesome, although the distance from that city didn't seem too far away. He searched the Internet and confirmed that the tram could reach him directly.

The journey takes about four to ten minutes...

After weighing quickly, Xia Ran decisively took out her mobile phone and asked for leave again for the cheap head teacher who was currently assigned to her.

It's just that during the call, it seemed that the other party was dissatisfied with his plan to take a one-month long vacation in one go, and his tone was also stiff.

However, this is none of his business. The other party is just a middle-aged uncle, and he is also a bald middle-aged uncle, so there is no need to establish a good relationship.Anyway, it's not Hiratsuka Shizuka, Xia Ran doesn't care what the other party thinks.

If it wasn't for avoiding unnecessary trouble, he wouldn't even have the idea to call and inform.

After finishing this work, he checked again the doors and windows that had been tightly blocked in the past two days—mainly to prevent the silent invasion of parasitic larvae. The protagonist of the plot was sleeping, and a larva crawled out of the window came in.

Then he simply threw himself on the bed, ready to rest.

Despite the unfamiliar environment and the seemingly dire circumstances, his past experience helped him adapt well to the pressure.If ordinary people were exposed to such an environment, they might be on the verge of collapse.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Just when he was about to fall asleep in a daze, the phone rang suddenly.

Xia Ran reached out and fumbled for the phone in great confusion, opened her sleepy eyes and just glanced at it, suddenly she was shocked!He sat up suddenly, staring at the new email displayed on the screen.

What the hell?It's already this time, and that cheap homeroom teacher wants to come to visit?And already on the road, get yourself ready?This is the cheap head teacher who is very dissatisfied with his attendance rate during this period, and is going to come over and reprimand him face to face?

And what to prepare for, what is there to prepare for?Doesn't he know that he lives alone?

Wait, this situation is very abnormal, maybe he just knows that he lives alone, so he is going to come to the door?

Subconsciously glanced at the current time, Xia Ran suddenly narrowed his eyes slightly, he suddenly thought of a possibility, especially when the cheap teacher called before, the hard tone seemed to be emotionless in retrospect of.

After carefully examining his current situation, Xia Ran suddenly found that he was really a good hunting target.

alone...

no human interaction...

I just called to ask for a little vacation...

Under such circumstances, if Xia Ran really died at home, who would know?I'm afraid no one will even know that the cheap homeroom teacher came to visit at night.

He thought about it for a while, and then seemed to have an idea——

Jump out of bed decisively, put on your shoes, and quickly change into clothes suitable for action.Then he threw a new mobile phone he bought the day before yesterday on the bed in the bedroom, went directly downstairs and left the house, and locked the door by the way.

This street is not remote, and it is not unoccupied at night. Many houses are lit, and there are faint voices and laughter, which is a warm scene.It's just that Xia Ran shuddered at the thought that some of them might be just parasitic beasts in human skin.

But it shouldn't be so unlucky, the number of parasitic beasts is not so large that you can meet nine of them when you go downstairs to buy a pack of cigarettes.

Xia Ran tried hard to suppress her wild thoughts, and then carefully turned into the courtyard of the opposite resident without making a sound.

While paying attention to the movements of the family in the house, he was ready to hide immediately when someone came out, while carefully listening to any sounds from the road outside.

After thinking about it, he took out his phone and turned off the sound, flash, etc., and then carefully raised one side of the camera over the wall to take pictures of the outside scene.

Although the general perception ability of parasitic beasts does not seem to be particularly scary, there are also incidents in the animation where they were attacked by human gangsters and hit the head hard with a steel pipe. As for the effect, at least it can prove that they are not completely innocent. A living body with dead ends and weak spots.

But this is a real world, Xia Ran is currently just a war scum without any frontal combat power, he doesn't want to take risks, in case the other party is really a parasitic beast, and the perception is exaggerated enough to sense the sight of others what to do?

It didn't take too long to wait, but in this case, it was very mentally exhausting for people.

Of course, Xia Ran has patience far beyond that of his peers, so he doesn't feel that there is anything he can't persevere. He is still listening to the movement in the room behind him distractedly, looking back from time to time, while turning his attention Place it on the road outside the yard.

Time passed by second by second.

Finally, there were faint footsteps not far away, and a long shadow appeared under the range of the street lights. Before the person arrived, the shadow had already spread over.

When that person approached, Xia Ran's heart shivered slightly. That person was his cheap homeroom teacher, a middle-aged bald man with an overly square Chinese character face and decent clothes.

It's just that his face was expressionless at all, so stiff and indifferent that it was scary.

Seeing this, Xia Ran became more sure of her guess. Maybe this guy has been replaced by a parasitic beast...

He held his breath, watched the man come to his door and stood still, looked up at the room without any lights, and then took out his mobile phone from his pocket, as if sending a message.

Half a minute later, a new email was silently sent to Xia Ran's phone. He secretly thanked himself for his previous settings, and squatted behind the wall and carefully replied an email to the other side——

Pretending to be a student who doesn't know anything, and using a slightly guilty tone in the face of the teacher's surprise inspection, he said that the reason why he asked for leave was actually because he had already traveled far away due to business at the moment, and he would not be able to return until a few days later...

After sending the email, he continued to use his mobile phone to monitor the man outside.

He saw the cheap homeroom teacher put his phone away after reading the information, and then strode into his yard.

- Crack!

A clicking sound could be clearly heard from such a long distance, as if the door lock had been violently broken, and the figure of the man with a strong wrist was submerged in the darkness behind the door.

Xia Ran held her breath tightly. If it was just his guess and tendency before, then now he is basically sure——

That was a parasitic beast looking for food, and it found itself as its target tonight.
