Chapter 927 Only monsters can defeat monsters
Chiba Makoto glanced at Takehiko Onoda in surprise, and wanted to say: Is this your line?
Since I met Uncle Onoda, I have never seen the word 'danger' in his dictionary. He behaves slovenly all day long, drives the same sloppy off-road vehicle, and goes to various forbidden areas and uninhabited areas. I heard that he went deep into the mountains and forests of South America more than once.
Also, Uncle Onoda has changed a bit.
Chiba Makoto looked up and down. His clothes were bright and shiny, his beard was neatly shaved, and his hair was combed meticulously. There was no trace of the slovenly look he had in the past. He almost didn’t recognize it just now, this change. It's not that big.
Thinking back on it, Maya said that when she went to Blake's Bar, she accidentally saw the neatly dressed Onoda through the window. At that time, she thought she had seen it wrong, and there was a girl with fair skin sitting in the passenger seat.
In this case, it makes sense that Uncle Onoda has undergone such a big change. People like to please themselves. Naturally, they will no longer be careless when they fall in love. He makes himself so beautiful. He obviously loves that girl very much. It's love.
Thinking of this, Chiba Makoto smiled and nodded. He was very happy that Uncle Onoda came out of the 'Shena Incident'. People can't always live in memories, and they can't always cherish the past. , we still have to look forward and focus on the future to find the hope of life.
You can't be like Obik, who is always thinking about the past life and the lost village. In the end, he loses the courage to live and the hope for the future.
He sympathizes with Obik's tragic experience, but does not agree with Obik's negative approach.
The process of urbanization cannot be reversed, the disappeared villages cannot come back, and the people who have passed away are even less likely to return.
The earth will not stop moving because of anyone, nor will society stop moving forward because of anyone. Those who cannot keep up with the times will be left behind.
For the abandoned person, he is pitiful, staying there alone, watching the train of the times go away, but if the whole train is stopped just to wait for one person, what will happen to him? It’s also quite unfair for thousands of people on the bus.
It can only be said that nothing in this world is perfect.
Obik’s attacks continue, and Obik’s story is still circulating. Obik’s name is mentioned by more and more people, and in the face of more and more victims, The police department has repeatedly strengthened patrols at night and warned the general public not to go out at night unless there is nothing to do.
Yes, the mayor of Hikono insisted on the TV media that this was a serial criminal, and asked everyone not to panic and appropriately reduce going out at night. He also said that the police would catch him soon and restore normal order in Hikono.
And he is not a devout believer in science and does not believe in monsters, but he must say this because it can be seen intuitively by the citizens. Under his leadership, the police caught the criminals and returned them to the citizens. A stable life, if you publicize it when the time comes, you might be able to be re-elected.
But once he admits that a monster is causing trouble, how should he let the citizens know that he has caught the monster? Find a group of monks to recite sutras, find a witch to perform magic tricks, and do this in a scientific society. It's okay in private, but how can it be publicized on TV and the media? So even if it is a monster, before destroying or driving away the monster, you must insist that it is Criminals, even if they are exposed, the worst they can do is bow and apologize. Mayor Hikono wanted to cover the lid, but on the night he announced the strengthening of vigilance and night patrols, the pot exploded. Two police officers performing night patrols were attacked. The police car parked alone on the roadside, but people appeared on the roadside. Hills more than thirty kilometers away.
When several police cars found them, the two police officers were lying motionless among the weeds. They were neatly dressed and equipped with police equipment. The only change was that they were strong and strong. At this moment, their faces were pale and haggard, and their black hair had turned gray, as if they had aged twenty or thirty years overnight.
What’s even weirder is that after reading the records of the two police officers and the police car’s positioning system, it was found that the two police officers were driving a police car on patrol in the northwest of Hikono Town, and then parked somewhere for five minutes, and then the signal disappeared for ten minutes. After several seconds, when he reappeared, he was already in the mountains more than thirty kilometers away.
Unless you use a rocket, it is impossible to move a distance of more than 30 kilometers in just ten seconds. Reading the driving recorder of the police car, we made a new discovery. The police car was driving normally. , turned a corner, and the car lights illuminated a noodle stall on the roadside. Then the police car stopped, and two police officers got out of the car and persuaded the stall owner to close the stall quickly.
But then there was a flute sound, which was very sharp, unpleasant, but very loud. The flute sound only lasted for more than ten seconds, and then there was no sound again. Compared with the records of the police positioning system, When the flute sounded, the signal just disappeared, and after the flute stopped, the signal appeared in the mountainous area more than 30 kilometers away.
And according to police inquiries, the victim who previously claimed to have encountered 'Obik' also vaguely heard the sound of a flute before falling into coma, so this led them to draw a terrifying conclusion: Obik Ke is not a criminal as politicians say, he is really a monster.
Now, the police officers are done with it. We are professionals in catching criminals, but catching monsters is just a dark look in our eyes. We are not professional.
The news that Obik really existed and had 'killed' two police officers quickly spread throughout Hikono Town. Before noon, almost everyone knew about it. Now I thought I was smart. People who were dismissive of rumors were also panicked, and even police officers were killed, so wouldn't they, ordinary people, be more dangerous?
In order to calm down the boiling public resentment, Mayor Hikono called on everyone to calm down, while he hurriedly searched for the master, and also asked for help from the TPC.
Although catching monsters sounds ridiculous in this scientific society, in order to divert people's attention as soon as possible and maintain one's approval rate, let alone find a master, just hold a prayer ceremony. After all, this is It saves a lot of money and effort compared to doing practical things like building water conservancy projects.
Appeals failed to calm the people. The TPC's request for help was still being reported level by level, but the master was able to find it immediately. There was a small shrine on the mountain of Hikono Town, and a well-known man lived in it. The mage was sent over by Mayor Hikono as a fire brigade, asking him to help deal with the monster Obik that appeared at night.
The mayor of Hikono Town swore that as long as Obik can be eliminated, suppressed or expelled, and he will not be allowed to continue to appear in Hikono Town and disrupt the order of Hikono Town, he will donate a generous reward to the shrine. In order to repair the weathered shrine, the people will also be informed that it was the mage who destroyed Obik.
In short, with all kinds of inducements and guarantees, I am not afraid that the mage is not capable, but I am afraid that the mage will not be able to contribute, even if it is just a pretense, it will be enough to drag it to the TPC.
