"Hey, hey, we are all colleagues. We must live in peace. You can't greet your colleagues like this."
Shinohara Yukini stood between the two of them and began to teach Suzuya Jizo basic common sense.
For a person who didn't even have basic common sense, Su Xiao would certainly not get angry.
However, I must deal with this bastard if I have the opportunity in the future.
"Really~, that's it, I'm sorry~."
Suzuya Jizo laughed and actually apologized to Su Xiao sincerely. He really has a contradictory character.
"Mr. Shinohara, is the test over?"
Shinohara Yuki moved her arms, which were still numb, and nodded.
"It's over, you are now officially the ghoul investigator of the CCG."
Shinohara Yuki's expression became serious.
"Being a ghoul investigator is a responsibility. Protecting ordinary people and expelling those cannibalistic ghouls is our primary responsibility. We may make sacrifices for this, but we will not hesitate..."
The passionate speech began. Although Su Xiao was bored, she did not show any impatience.
"That's it. If you are mentally prepared, you can go on the mission now. However, the third-class investigator cannot act alone and needs to be protected by the superior investigator..."
Lidya Su coughed lightly.
"Mr. Shinohara, who do you think can protect me?"
Shinohara Yuki laughed and shook his head.
"Well~, this is the rule."
"I can do it alone. It's nothing more than driving out the ghouls. I just have to achieve the goal. The process is not important."
After hesitating for a long time, Shinohara Yuki nodded. Su Xiao did not need the protection of a superior investigator. Su Xiao's protection of a superior investigator was enough.
"In this case, let me give you a clue about the ghoul now."
Yuki Shinohara walked to the desk and handed Su Xiao a document.
Su Xiao checked the content above. The content was very trivial, such as strange noises coming from the sewers, underwear being dried to be burned, female students who were aided in the suburbs missing, and so on.
"This is our daily job. Ghouls are very cunning, especially in areas like District 14, which are not stable but not chaotic either."
It is not an easy task to drive out the ghouls.
Most of the ghouls in Area 14 are hidden among ordinary people. Except when they reveal their true form when hunting, they will remain hidden at other times.
Ghouls only need to hunt once or twice a month to maintain the body's needs. If you want to expel these ghouls, the most important thing to do is to find them.
For Su Xiao, most of the difficulty in driving out the ghouls is finding them. After finding them, things become easier.
"The information you have now should be about the traces of a ghoul. Find him and expel him."
Shinohara Yuki's expression was solemn, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
"no problem."
Su Xiao turned around and was about to leave the office. Although she had plenty of time, she couldn't waste it.
"Bai Ye, remember to go to the logistics department to pick up the tools. Those tools are very useful."
Su Xiao paused, nodded and left.
"Another cold colleague came here. Oh, what a headache."
Shinohara Yuki sat behind his desk, lightly pressing his forehead. When he looked up and saw Suzuya Jizo who was giggling, Shinohara felt an even greater headache.
Su Xiao first came to the post-production department, and after showing his ID, he received many tools.
An hour later, Su Xiao arrived at a park alone and sat down on a bench by the roadside.
The park is lined with green trees, the breeze blows through, rustling the leaves, the midday sun scorches the earth, and summer cicadas lie on the tree trunks and scream.
Because of the hot weather, the people in the park were very nice. Fortunately, Su Xiao sat under the shade of a tree and it was quite cool.
The information given by Yuki Shinohara was not detailed, but it had a general target. In the past six months, more than a dozen disappearances had occurred in this park.
The CCG has a clear division of labor. Ordinary investigators are responsible for looking for clues. Those people are not very effective in combat.
When the clues are relatively clear and there is a possibility of encountering a ghoul, the superior investigator will lead his subordinates to search for them personally to avoid unnecessary casualties of ordinary investigators.
But even so, five ordinary investigators have already disappeared into this park.
Shinohara Yuki was planning to go out earlier because he wanted to inspect this park.
Su Xiao paid attention to the passers-by, but found nothing for a long time, but he was not in a hurry.
According to the information given by Yuki Shinohara, there have been no disappearances in this park for two Sundays.
That ghoul will appear soon, because this is the feeding ground for that ghoul.
Some of the behaviors of ghouls are similar to those of wild beasts, such as dividing territories (prey grounds). Because of the competition for territory, two ghouls may also fight.
In no more than three days, this ghoul will appear, and this ghoul may be of a high level, definitely not a weakling below level A.
Most ghouls die because they cannot restrain their appetite and are eventually discovered by investigators.
Success and patience are inseparable. Su Xiao sat on the bench in the park and waited silently.
Time flew by in an instant, and it was past three in the afternoon.
A burst of soothing music sounded in the distance.
"School?"
Su Xiao looked at a building in the distance. Half an hour later, there were gradually more pedestrians in the park, including high school students who had just finished school.
Most ghouls hunt at night, so Su Xiao planned to spend the night here.
"Brother, why are you sitting here by yourself? You must be very lonely."
A female high school student in school uniform was sitting next to Su Xiao. The female high school student was wearing a cool top, a black skirt, and black stockings, showing off her slender legs.
Su Xiao was stunned. Could it be that he had met the legendary suburban female student? What an unexpected openness.
"……."
silence.
"Tsk~, what a boring guy."
Finding that Su Xiao ignored her, the female high school student got up and walked away.
As night falls, the street lights in the park light up.
Su Xiao had been squatting all afternoon and was inevitably a little hungry. Just when he was about to get up to have dinner, he suddenly heard a short scream.
The scream was very short, just a moment, but it was captured by him keenly.
Su Xiao immediately stood up and ran quickly towards the source of the sound. The sound came from a corner of the park, not far from him.
After arriving at the location of the sound source, Su Xiao glanced around, but there was nothing. Not to mention people around, there was not even a ghost.
He could never mishear the screams between them, so something must have happened here.
After careful inspection, Su Xiao found a few drops of blood and half a broken nail on the edge of a flower bed.
Smear some blood with your finger. The blood has cooled down but has not solidified, indicating that the blood is very fresh.
"Crack, click~."
The sound of biting flesh could be heard in the forest not far away. Su Xiao quietly entered the forest, and a cruel scene came into view.
A victim whose appearance was unclear was lying on the ground, with a ghoul munching on him above him.
Finding the ghoul should have been a good thing, but Su Xiao frowned.
The ghoul in front of him is not very strong, probably only B-level, and it is unlikely that this barbaric hunting method will escape the investigation of ordinary investigators.
From the way this ghoul devoured his food, Su Xiao guessed what was going on.
This might not be the feeding ground for this ghoul, but this ghoul was so hungry that he had no choice but to take risks.
"Wild dog, who allowed you to hunt in my place? Do you want to die?"
A clear female voice came from the woods, and at the same time, a very thin stick waved towards the ghoul who was eating.
"Pfft."
The head flew up, and before the eating ghoul could speak, he was beheaded, his face full of fear.
Hezi's owner walked out from between the trees. After Su Xiao saw his appearance clearly, he was a little surprised to find that he was the female high school student he had seen during the day.
