Chapter 850 Heavy Rain

"Honestly, this is the first time I've seen the corpse of a ghoul that died so tragically."

Looking at the fragmented and twisted body in front of him, Investigator Manado also took a breath.

They often see similar human corpses, because ghouls have an overwhelming advantage against humans, so they can play with humans as they please, tearing them apart, twisting them, and killing them.

But it is very difficult for humans to do similar things to ghouls. In the final analysis, weapons are just weapons. Humans themselves do not have the power to fight against ghouls...should they?

Not to mention, what appeared in front of them was a super-powerful ghoul that was classified as S-class. His powerful Mato and Amon have already felt it personally. Even if he tried his best, he was still just being played around by the other party. However, in the hands of that man, Jason, the S-class ghoul of District 13, was So fragile and helpless.

"Oh my god, I never thought that I would witness a human beating a ghoul with his bare hands. The Tribunal is really some incredible people."

Investigator Mado narrowed his eyes and spoke with an excited smile, while Investigator Amen looked solemn.

"Is that really something a human can do? To be honest, I think he is more like a powerful ghoul..."

"You know that's impossible, right?"

Mado chuckled and interrupted Amon, who was also speechless. Because before this, Duanmu Huai ordered a dozen hamburgers from a nearby fast food restaurant and ate them in one bite - if he were a ghoul, it would be impossible for him to do such a thing. For ghouls, anything other than human flesh is extremely unpalatable, and will be highly poisonous if swallowed and digested.

Duanmu Huai devoured the food in front of them, obviously not afraid of being poisoned at all, so it was obvious that he was no longer a ghoul.

By the way, Duanmuhuai and Mary have already gone back to the hotel. Because Duanmuhuai was beaten too much, the clothes on his body were soaked with the monster's blood and brain paste. According to him, he planned to go back to have a big meal and take a shower. Change clothes and rest - considering that the two of them had accompanied him on the investigation for nearly a day after getting off the plane yesterday, Inspector Manoto would not stop them from going back to rest.

"But our work is not over yet."

As he spoke, Investigator Manado reached out and took a painting from the hand of the dead doctor. According to the results of the search here by the people sent by the Countermeasures Bureau, it was determined that a family of three lived here. In addition to the doctor himself, there should be his wife and daughter.

But they are not here, which means... the battle is not over yet.

Looking at the children's graffiti in front of him, Mano sneered, then grasped the ball of paper and threw it to the ground.

"Let's go, Yamen-kun. I wonder what kind of prey this garbage will attract?"

When Duanmu Huai opened his eyes and woke up from his sleep, it was already night.

"Huh... I'm damn jet-lagged. I stayed up all night before I even got jet-lagged when I arrived. I feel like I can't get over it."

Duanmuhuai yawned, stood up, got dressed, and then walked out of the room - and then he saw Mary drinking coffee and writing something in the lounge outside the room.

"Yo, what are you doing?"

Duanmuhuai raised his hand and greeted Mary, while Mary raised her head, looked at Duanmuhuai and saluted back.

"Ah, Mr. Duanmu, I am recording the material."

"material?"

"Yes, I think the ghouls... are very suitable for writing the next novel. They are existences that are the same as humans, but can only make a living by eating people... why do they become like this? ?I mean...they are not human beings, right? But why do they look like humans?"

"Isn't this strange? There are many similar animals in nature."

Duanmu Huai sat down on the sofa next to Mary. The shock made Mary's petite body jump.

"Insects and animals are all good at mimicking hunting, aren't they? For example, some bugs will mimic dead leaves or leaves. On the one hand, they can avoid natural enemies, and on the other hand, they can also paralyze prey. In fact, I don't like creatures like ghouls. I can think of a cuckoo."

"Hey? Cuckoo?"

"Yes, you know that cuckoos will lay their eggs in other bird's nests and let others incubate them. In fact, cuckoo eggs are generally similar to other bird eggs, and most birds can't tell them apart. So they He will also foolishly incubate eggs for the cuckoo, and after the cuckoo's chicks hatch, they will push the other eggs and chicks out of the nest to ensure that they can have it all to themselves."

After saying this, Duanmu Huai chuckled.

"Look, don't they look alike? Ghouls are like cuckoo eggs. They usually behave exactly like humans. When their true nature is exposed, they will eat other prey to ensure their own survival. Maybe the ghouls here have been around for a long time. They were not exactly the same as humans before, but gradually, in order to facilitate the hunting of humans, they became what they are now."

"In order to facilitate the hunting of humans..."

Mary shuddered as she repeated these words.

"I have to say, it's a really scary idea."

"As far as nature is concerned, this is normal. If we judge by human morality, then most of the animals in nature have no moral character at all, and can even be said to be extremely evil. Every species will do it for reproduction and survival. Working hard to continue the bloodline is not just a human privilege. It is meaningless and of little value to judge other species as cruel or evil from a human perspective."

Duanmuhuai said, looking around.

"It's quite boring to say, can't you sleep either?"

"Yes, I was suffering from jet lag just now..."

"I'll call Manoto and see if he can introduce us to some fun places."

As he spoke, Duanmuhuai took out the phone.

“We have nothing to do and can’t sleep late at night, so let’s ask the locals to introduce us to some restaurants.”

As he spoke, Duanmuhuai dialed the phone.

"Hey, Mano? You haven't slept yet. What are you doing...fishing?"

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai raised his eyebrows.

"It seems to be quite fun. Count us, we have nothing to do... Okay, let's go there now."

Duanmuhuai stood up and hung up the phone.

"let's go."

"What's wrong?"

"Mado seems to be planning to catch a few ghouls here, so let's go join in the fun. We can't sleep anyway, so why don't we find some themes for you by the way?"

"OK."

Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, Mary nodded obediently, then put away her notebook and stood up. Duanmuhuai looked at her and snapped his fingers.

"let's go."

The rain fell in torrents.

In the dark night, along the river embankment, Investigator Amen held a weapon in his hand and watched the enemy in front of him vigilantly——Investigator Mando's strategy was very effective. He used the doctor ghoul he had killed before. They successfully found the wreckage of his family. Although the daughter escaped during the attack, the mother was killed to protect her daughter.

So Investigator Mado repeated his old tricks again, using the remains of his mother to lure his daughter into taking the bait.

As far as the results are concerned - it went very smoothly.

The daughter has taken the bait, and not only that, she has also lured an unexpected prey, a very famous ghoul in District 20 - a rabbit.

The problem now is that besides the rabbit, there is also a ghoul standing in front of him.

"Woo——!"

His shoulder was burning with pain. He had underestimated this ghoul before and was bitten. Not only that... even his weapon was destroyed by the opponent.

Can this be the end of it?

"No…………!"

Investigator Amen clenched the remains of the only remaining weapon in his hand and looked at the ghoul in front of him again. Judging from his appearance, he is thin and wears a mask-like mask, looking like a teenager. A pair of bright red tentacles spread out from his waist behind him. This is an enemy as powerful as a rabbit. Maybe I will die here, but...

"As long as the enemy is in front of you, even if your hands and feet are cut off, you must never give up the fight!"

That's right, I can't fall down here, I am the investigator...

"Please run away."

However, the ghoul in front of him spoke something that was beyond the imagination of Investigator Amen. I saw him holding his right hand tightly, as if he was suppressing something.

"If you continue like this, I will kill you, so... please run away quickly!"

"Stop joking, how could I escape with my back to the ghoul!"

Hearing what the other party said, Yamen felt a surge of anger welling up in his heart. Was he so vulnerable in the eyes of that ghoul? So much so that he even wanted to escape on his own? !

"Let's go!"

At this moment, the ghoul roared again, and at the same time, the tentacles behind him quickly intertwined and swung towards Yamen!

"————!"

Silver light flashed.

The icy coldness froze the surrounding raindrops and the ground. The moonlight-gleaming sword drew an arc and struck the tentacles whizzing towards him, instantly cutting the tentacles into two pieces.

Yamen raised his head in surprise and saw a blond girl wearing a luxurious dress and holding an umbrella in her left hand. She didn't know when she appeared beside him. She held a cane in her right hand and her golden and blue eyes were extremely eye-catching. .

"I remember you were...Mary Clarissa Christie...?"

"Yes, Mr. Duanmu just called Inspector Manoto and learned that the two of you were hunting here... I shouldn't have hindered you, right?"

"No, it helped a lot."

Investigator Amen stood up unsteadily and looked at the ghoul opposite.

"Then please leave this to me."

"no problem?"

Hearing Mary's words, Yamen was stunned for a moment. Although he also wanted to believe that the girl in front of him had enough power to fight against the ghoul, he had to say that the girl in front of him felt more like a delicate daughter-in-law. Mademoiselle, not a warrior.

"Yes, please don't worry about me. I can still deal with enemies of this level."

"Ah...ahhhh..."

While Mary was talking to Inspector Armen, the ghoul across from him was already trembling. This was not only because of his instinct, but also because of the attractive fragrance of the girl who appeared in front of him.

It is like a person who has been hungry for ten days and ten nights and suddenly smells the tempting smell of food.

He wanted to eat her, tear her skin apart, bite her flesh and blood, and devour everything about her... completely!

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!"

At this moment, the suppressed instinct completely burst out, and the young ghoul jumped up, the tentacles behind his waist suddenly stretched out, and shot towards Mary!
