"Little Hunter" joins the group chat.
The squad leader was silent. Her online name was "Little Hunter". She originally wanted to talk to Qiao Shuya quickly and then quit the chat group.
The online name "Keqing (Qiao)" made her immediately recognize that this was Qiao Shuya, and now she thought that what she had joined should be a group chat similar to a board game club.
Maybe Qiao Shuya added him by mistake. He was originally going to add him as a friend directly, but for some reason, he was added to this strange fan club instead.
Yoshida looked at the group chat interface and thought like this, reaching out to press "Exit group chat".
However, at this time in the group, I saw that they were already chatting.
"Welcome, it looks like someone new has entered the trap!"
"Is the newcomer still Ke Qing's apprentice? Last time Ke Qing brought in an A-level apprentice, but he was also someone who didn't like Shui Qun."
"This newcomer should also be an A-level watcher, right? After all, Juan Wang Keqing's apprentice is also an A-level one at least."
"Looking at the newcomer's name on the website, is he a 'little hunter'? Is he also a hunting type of watchman? Is he one who uses a gun or a bow and arrow? Or is he a trap type?"
Discussions began quickly in the group, but most of them fell on her, the newbie who accidentally got into it.
From the few words these people said, squad leader Yoshida Tsumugi was stunned for a moment.
"This is... a group chat for the Watchers?" Yoshida Sui looked silently at the group messages that kept flooding the screen. From the few words she said, she also guessed that this might not be a game fan club.
It's more like a chat group where the Watchers gather together in private!
When he thought of this, Yoshida Tsumugi had a shocked expression on his face, and his hand that was about to press "Exit group chat" stopped in the air.
How strange, take another look!
The group was still chatting about new people, and they started to analyze the possible fighting styles and strengths from the squad leader’s online name, and then things got weird, and a few people started to appear and debated whether the Will Smith revolver or the Remington shotgun was better. .
This is how the crooked building came into being, and even became more and more intense. More and more watchmen seemed to have joined the debate, mainly debating whether revolvers or shotguns were better.
It's like debating whether tofu should be eaten with sugar or vinegar.
And now, it seems that Yoshida Tsumugi, who was originally the focus of discussion, has been left behind, and is now a group of boring watchers fighting for the legitimacy of firearms...
Yoshida Tsumugi suddenly didn't want to leave the group chat. She looked at the group members and discovered that there were dozens of people in the group, many of whom had nicknames such as branch president and minister.
The owner of this group is an account named "Li", and there is only one administrator, Qiao Shuya, who brought her in.
The squad leader hesitated, because this is the life world of the watchers. It is different from the watchers in the news and TV, but the real traces of the lives of the watchers living around them...
And, Qiao Shuya and his work group...
How about diving and observing secretly for a day? Will you leave the group tomorrow?
The squad leader who was peeping into the group chat thought this way and silently peeked at the screen.
Take another look...
…
Qiao Shuya didn't notice the group chat that had filled the screen at this time. There were just two groups of watchers chatting about strange issues.
Qiao Shuya was currently browsing the web page, but a piece of news stopped his fingers that were about to refresh.
"Major case, the 17,000-ton grain case was solved. The person in charge of the dock, Kanamaru, believed in the thief and called to catch the thief?" News emerged that a criminal suspect committed suicide out of fear of crime.
This kind of shocking news headline basically slapped the entire content directly in the face. Qiao Shuya clicked on it and read it. The whole article reported that the 17,000 tons of grain case was solved, and the Kanemaru family thief shouted "Catch the thief". There would be no food.
The most critical thing is that Mr. Kanemaru was found to have committed suicide in his home this morning. The cause of death was that he was shot once in the back. The Metropolitan Police Department and detectives determined it to be suicide after on-site investigation.
Mrs. Kanemaru also died unexpectedly. The cause of death was that she made a mistake while driving last night and knocked down the guardrail, and the whole car fell into the sea...
Everything ended successfully, the end of the Kanemaru family came, 17,000 tons of food disappeared, the main responsible persons committed suicide in fear of crime, the case was solved, and the truth was revealed.
The whole of Tokyo has once again returned to a state of vitality and everything is in full swing. There are no secrets in Tokyo and everything is fine.
As for where the lost food went? Everyone is dead, and an explanation has been given, so the bad debts of food or money will be settled.
Qiao Shuya was silent and saw the last picture of a vehicle crashing through the guardrail. He had been there yesterday, but the guardrail there was still intact at that time.
This news has only a few thousand views. It seems that people don't care about this kind of news, nor do they care about why Kanemaru's family was destroyed overnight.
"Alas..." He just sighed in the end, and his original intention of asking the priest was gone.
Qiao Shuya used his mobile phone to search for the price of rice nearby. It had already increased to 5 yuan per kilogram, 2.5 times more than before.
Can what happened last time really end like this?
Qiao Shuya thought of a few years ago.
At that time, a People's Federation sports meeting was held in Tokyo. Although the opening ceremony was very hellish, it was all made up of balloons with human heads, long-haired faces, and on-site sacrifices.
Then it was revealed that 99% of the money used for the opening ceremony had been embezzled.
But the chief designer immediately committed suicide and committed seppuku, and no one complained about the opening ceremony of the sports games anymore.
Qiao Shuya didn't know whether the chief designer committed suicide to apologize or was killed.
He immediately brushed up on the news, and a cute YouTuber with a two-dimensional leather suit began to appear, and he even seemed to be a celebrity. It was reported that this YouTuber used voice changes and disguised leather suit to pretend to be a young lady, and deceived millions of people. Coin gift.
This news has been viewed 1.2 million times.
However, he soon forgot the news about the Kanemaru family. After all, living here, things that originally seemed outrageous in his previous life would gradually become accustomed to him.
And just when Qiao Shuya was thinking like this, a separate message from Uncle Li came again: "Will you come and pick up the cross today?"
"Take it!" Qiao Shuya replied.
After school in the afternoon, Yuan Zhi'ai's jeep parked at the gate of the Watchmen Association, and Qiao Shuya got out of the car for a while and walked out carrying a 20-kilogram cross.
He came to the passenger seat and held the cross like this, as if he couldn't put it down.
The cross is 1.2 meters long and is made of solid material. Because it is a product for use by the Watchers, there is no need to deliberately reduce weight. The entire weapon is made of 2000-layer malaysian, and the handle and scabbard are only It's just wrapped with a belt to prevent slipping hands.
This kind of weapon is not suitable for ordinary people to use at all.
Qiao Shuya drew out the Holy Sword. The Cross Holy Sword's blade was 0.9 meters long, straight and hard. The sword also exuded a faint blue light, and one could even clearly see the densely packed Damascus patterns like feathers under the 2,000-layer Damascus.
Not only that, Qiao Shuya reached out and touched a small bump. If he pressed it, the .50 Magnum bullet installed on the hilt would be instantly activated.
After putting away the Holy Cross Sword, the scabbard and the blade fit together tightly, and the entire sword was just a cross again.
Qiao Shuya didn't expect that the weapon given to him by the association would be such an outrageous thing. He originally just asked for a solid cross, but he didn't expect that the association would find someone to do a big job and forge this set of swords for him. A cross and a spear in one weapon.
Although the sword blade and gun are not particularly useful to Qiao Shuya, they are so handsome!
Qiao Shuya couldn't put it down, while Yuan Zhi loved to stare at the blue luster on the weapon.
I don't know if it's her imagination, but Yuan Zhi'ai always feels that this blue color is somewhat similar to the fist that ignited when Qiao Shuya hit someone?
"By the way, Xiao Ai, there is also good news." Qiao Shuya said.
"What's the news?" Yuan Zhi'ai was just comparing the blue luster on the cross when he heard Qiao Shuya's sudden words.
"Uncle Li said that Lao Chen might come over again in a while, and this time it is said that he will stay here for a long time." Qiao Shuya said.
"Is that so?" Yuan Zhi'ai also thought of Lao Chen, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly. In that case, Xiong Hui would train with him, and even be able to continue to teach him in details.
She looked at Qiao Shuya, who was holding the Holy Cross Sword in his hand and couldn't put it down. She also smiled, started the car, and drove the jeep towards Wei Ning's office.
"Tomorrow is the weekend again. Do you have any other tasks this weekend?"
"Yes, there seem to be many cases of unexplained disappearances in Chiba County. I may take the time to investigate."
The two voices spoke in the jeep.
…
At the home of monitor Yoshida Tsumugi, she received a courier.
When she opened the door, she saw what seemed to be a big quilt. She signed the express delivery note with some joy, then took the big package home and locked the door.
She opened the package and found a pillow inside, which she had ordered online. It was life-size and cost a lot of money.
And she seems to live alone. It is hard to imagine that such a weak and frail monitor has been living alone in Tokyo.
She took apart the pillow. The filling was not the focus. The most important thing was the custom-made pillowcase.
Class monitor Yoshida Tsumugi took out the pillowcase there, which actually had Qiao Shuya's pattern printed on it. It was life-size. She happily put the pillowcase into place and then threw the pillow on the bed in her bedroom. She hugged the pillow on the bed. Stop rolling.
When she was tired, she turned off the light, looked at Qiao Shuya's photo on the pillow, and said, "Good night!"
"Pa!" Everyone was silent.
In the early morning of the next day, squad leader Yuki Yoshida got up early to wash up.
Today is the weekend, and it is also the time when she needs to work part-time and go to work part-time.
She arranged her hair and tied it into a simple single ponytail using a technique that she could tie alone. Then she put on tight clothes and prepared to go out to work.
She has no family, and she was the only one left in her family due to the strange demon incident more than a year ago.
But luckily, she found a part-time job that could earn a lot of money, and she has been doing it until now. She only needs to work for a few days on weekends or during long holidays, and she can quickly earn enough for tuition and living expenses.
She tied up the inner lining, and then wrapped the tight corset in a smaller size around her body with some distress, otherwise it might get in the way later.
Then Yoshida Tsumugi put on a thick vest, pressed down his proud chest, which was so proud that he could barely see his toes, and then put on a dark green coat on top of the vest.
She saw a bottle of lubricating oil and put it in her pocket.
Then she put on a mask, went to another cabinet, and pulled out a "long knife" that was over 1.5 meters tall.
Rather than saying it is a long sword, it is more accurately described as a "gun sword".
This is a straight knife like a samurai sword, but the tip of the straight knife is not a sword blade, but a black barrel, and it seems that the lower end of the entire barrel is made of a bayonet made of alloy.
Anyway, this weapon is weird.
And Yoshida Tsumugi slowly took out the bullet belts one by one and hung them on her body until she was fully armed. The total weight of the equipment on her body may be nearly a hundred kilograms. However, the squad leader did not seem to feel too much pressure.
On the contrary, it was just that being restrained on the chest was extremely uncomfortable.
She clicked on her phone and saw a commission from the Hunters Guild. There seemed to be traces of wild boar herds in several rural areas in Chiba County. She would take advantage of this weekend to go there to clear out the wild boar herds.
In addition to being an ordinary high school senior, a detective enthusiast, and a candid photographer, Yuki Yoshida is also a professional hunter.
The Hunters Guild is a common guild throughout District 11, and its duty is to deal with the wild animals here.
It is not a behemoth like the Watcher Association. The Hunters Guild is simply a guild established by the Human Federation in some countries. It mainly recruits ordinary people to become hunters to deal with wild animals that affect human life.
Professional hunters specialize in hunting down all kinds of wild animals, ranging from Asian black bears and moose to hares and rats. This is also a job where she can live alone in Tokyo and study normally.
Perhaps even the hobby of detectives and the tracking skills that have not been discovered by Qiao Shuya after taking secret photos for so long may also come from the part-time job of this hunter.
Yoshida Sui was thinking wildly.
Her father was a professional hunter, and she hunted with him when she was very young, participating in battles to kill black bears and wild boars.
However, a few years ago, their family was invaded by strange demons for unknown reasons.
That time she was so scared that she didn't even have the courage to take out the shotgun. She didn't dare to point the black barrel at the strange demon. She almost closed her eyes and huddled in the closet, waiting for the strange demon to pull her out. The blue fire man appeared.
Now she was fully armed and arrived at a hunter's cabin in Chiba Prefecture in a transport vehicle.
Her heavy leather shoes squeaked inside the hut as she looked outside.
I hope this mission can be simpler. I will try to clean up the wild boar tonight, and then find an excuse to go to Qiao Shuya's office tomorrow. With this thought in mind, she placed the package on the musty bed, preparing to lay a trap.
