"Why are you in such a hurry?" Xia Xian suddenly sat up from the sofa and looked for something to eat in the kitchen of the apartment. "Do you want to eat? We came here as soon as we got off the train. We didn't eat breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Woolen cloth."
"No." Chu Zihang's tone was calm, but his eyes were fixed on the door, as if he wanted to find something out of his hearing. After all, the target of their trip was next door, "Just now..."
"It smells very strong of alchemy, right?" Xia Xian popped out of the kitchen with a bag of cheese slices in his hand, "Do you want to eat this? I have to say, the food that foreigners eat is really not as good as ours.
Great China, right? Rough! Food is an art..."
"Xia Xian..." Chu Zihang stopped talking.
"Okay, okay, I got it." Xia Xian threw the cheese slices back, walked back to the sofa, and sat next to Chu Zihang, "Gary Folger, a young priest from the Holy Prayer Cathedral, graduated from Harvard University Divinity School
College, has good conduct and no bad habits, is tall and handsome, has an excellent reputation in the neighborhood, and is said to be one of the "five good" citizens of the community... These are his superficial files. But according to Cassel College
Information provided by the Intelligence Section of the Enforcement Department shows that he is likely to be related to the recent baby-digging case that has caused panic in Brooklyn, and is the first suspect."
"Of course, he is probably still an extremely unstable hybrid and needs to use unborn babies to conduct some kind of alchemy experiment." Xia Xian added, "How about it, how do I memorize the mission manual?"
"Did you notice just now? The room behind him." Chu Zihang asked.
"Yeah." Xia Xian nodded, "He has a strong blood aura. I think the executive department underestimated him a little. This is not what a C-level hybrid should feel. Do you want to report it to your mentor? Don't blame me for being talkative. In fact,
I don’t understand why he has to rush to assign you the task of the execution department? We are only in the freshman year, and we are not about to graduate. I talked to Anders, and he has just executed three tasks after graduating, but you
This efficiency is more than three times faster than him."
"Schneider and I requested it, and the content of the application is to be executed independently." Chu Zihang glanced at him.
"What?!" Xia Xian sat up straight, "You really find things for yourself to do."
"He promised me that I can be considered to perform tasks below C level alone, but it is impossible for tasks above C level. After all, he cannot have the final say in the execution department, and we are still under the control of the college to a large extent.
, which is why Manstein asked you to follow me."
"Follow? Are you really okay with using this word?" Xia Xian rolled his eyes, "You think I want to follow. This is an auxiliary action! When we took the cc1000 train, the conductor didn't even call you 'A-level student Chu'
"Thank you for the compliment, Commissioner Xia Xian." Chu Zihang's face was expressionless. But the more he said such weird words with an ice face, the more Xia Xian wanted to punch his handsome face.
"Okay, let's get down to business." Xia Xian chose to call a truce, "Just tell me your plan, I'm too lazy to use my brain."
"Let's test it out first." Chu Zihang looked at the white wall connecting to the next door, "What does that woman... have to do with him? Why didn't the Intelligence Department mention that he was living with someone else? This would greatly hinder our actions.
"
"Brother," Xia Xian said helplessly, "You call that cohabitation? Didn't you see that when I was about to knock on the door, he almost threw the girl out. I guess they... are not a very legitimate relationship.
Coupled with this guy's habit of digging babies, I guess it's the only reason this girl isn't pregnant, otherwise it would be hard to escape his clutches."
"Are you sure that the target is him?" Chu Zihang frowned slightly, even though he was actually leaning towards this possibility, "The intelligence department hasn't determined it yet, otherwise we wouldn't have been sent here. We just need to take action directly. This murderer should be
There is something like Mingzhao or other hidden spirits, and the New York police can't catch any trace of his actions, and he didn't leave any crime tools or traces when he was smuggling babies, and the level of brutality is extremely high."
Xia Xian's speculation is naturally well-founded. As a first-generation species, his induction of the dragon bloodline is equivalent to that of the Word Spirit and Bloodline Jieluo. Even though his human form at this time is somewhat unable to scan as much as he wants, when two people get close,
He can also sense it to a certain extent. This is why he could clearly estimate the blood levels of Nono and others during the 3e exam.
When he opened the door just now, Xia Xian also clearly felt the aura of a hybrid that was initially estimated to be B-level. Although it was covered by some kind of hidden alchemy, when he and Chu Zihang came here, they also carried out an aura on the entire Brooklyn area.
After troubleshooting, we found that only such fluctuations occurred just now.
"Of course we can't act rashly." Xia Xian nodded solemnly, "Why don't we think about what to have for dinner first? Then take action tomorrow? After all, we have bumped into this bastard-looking priest today, so he shouldn't be able to commit a crime.
Otherwise, we would have seen him flirting with women..."
"He can choose to kill us too." Chu Zihang said casually.
"No way!" Xia Xian said, "Don't you know that a pervert like this who commits serial crimes and only picks the same type of victims can't possibly allow other people's blood to dirty his hands? His target is a baby, of course it's possible
It's targeting pregnant women... We obviously can't be his target."
"Have you killed anyone?" Chu Zihang asked.
"..." Xia Xian was speechless for a moment, "Hey, you said, I will go to the next door to borrow some ingredients to cook. Do you think he will lend them to me?"
"Don't mess around." Chu Zihang frowned and said, "If you are too abnormal, there must be a monster. If he is really a hybrid who was involved in the baby-digging case, he should be very vigilant."
"He is indeed very vigilant, otherwise he wouldn't have used the landlady's name to defraud us." Xia Xian shrugged, "But don't worry, I'm more of a thief than him."
Xia Xian made an OK gesture to Chu Zihang, then rushed into the kitchen and put on a white apron, as if she was preparing to cook, then opened the door and walked out.
As soon as Xia Xian walked out, she was stunned again. It turned out that at the door of Father Gary - not far from where Xia Xian walked out of the room, the young but extremely haggard blonde woman was squatting there, hugging her legs, and holding the
He buried his head between his knees and kept sobbing.
Xia Xian frowned, then walked up and said, "Hello."
The blond woman who called Penelope stopped sobbing, raised her head blankly, and saw Xia Xian standing under the dim light in the corridor, looking at her questioningly, "Are you... the Chinese student just now?"
"Yes, ma'am." Xia Xian saw that she recognized him and didn't care. He smiled and said, "Is there anything I can help you with? I am a student in the law department. If he does anything that violates the law against you,
, I can provide you with legal assistance."
When speaking the second half of the sentence, Xia Xian lowered her voice and pointed at the door of the room where Penelope was leaning against.
Penelope stood up, with resentful eyes, but as if she thought of something, she suddenly shook her head: "No, it has nothing to do with him, it's all my fault. He didn't go well at work today, so he should take off his anger on me."
"Are you... a couple? Or a couple?" Xia Xian hesitated.
"No, no, no." Penelope waved her hands hurriedly, "He is a priest! How can he start a family?"
Xia Xian nodded, "Can you tell me what difficulties you encountered? After all, we will be neighbors in the future, and we may have to get along for a long time..."
"No need. We are not the kind of cohabitation relationship you imagined. I will leave soon." Penelope shook her head. But Xia Xian saw hesitation and deep thought in her eyes, as well as a trace of it.
Thanks?
Xia Xian said no more now.
Penelope gently put aside the blond hair that escaped from her ears when she lowered her head just now, revealing her delicate and bright face. She had to say that it was indeed endearing. She looked at the apron on Xia Xian's body strangely and asked: "You
yes?"
"We just moved here, and there seems to be no usable food in the house, and we haven't had dinner yet." Xia Xian smiled helplessly, but kept staring at the door, "I was wondering if I could ask Father Gary for some.
?Mrs. Chloe said that Father Gary will help us if we have any difficulties."
After hearing this, Penelope felt a little embarrassed for a while.
"Let me ask him for you, but he is in a really bad mood today. I'm not sure if he will open the door," she said.
