Just when Avinash was about to answer "No," Victoria already said to herself, "Oh, I forgot that you went to the coalition government a long time ago. You probably haven't heard of it."
Victoria was always enthusiastic when talking about these topics, but Avinash felt a little unhappy - this woman always interrupted him suddenly before he finished speaking.
Victoria's accent itself has a strong District 4 style, which makes it difficult for Avinash to follow what she is saying immediately. He has to digest a sentence for a second or two before he can understand the general meaning, and her The speed of his speech was so fast that it was almost Chiba - which further slowed down his reaction speed in the conversation.
"This is the code name of a certain 'abnormalist', right?" Avinash tried to regain the balance, "I guess you used to-"
"Yours is really smart," Victoria praised sincerely. She handed the used handkerchief back to Avinash. "It is the first one I observed at the beginning of this year that may be close to ' "Harmless' aberration. It doesn't like to be near the living. Instead, it's only interested in the dead."
"why--"
"Because it only likes to pick the guts of dead people," Victoria liked to talk about these issues. After guessing Avinash's question, she happily gave the answer again, "You don't know why it picks the guts." It's brave, but people just collect it anyway.
"Because she looked like an old woman when she was alive, and the way she bent down to pick people's gallbladders resembled farmers picking ears of wheat in the fields, we gave it this name.
"Originally, we should have killed it immediately, but because its behavior was so special, after consideration, the headquarters sent us two drones to allow us to follow and film from a safe distance. Of course, the premise of all this is It is to ensure that it does not cause harm to any other human beings.
"In the two months we tracked it with drones, it avoided all the villages along its path - yes, it looked at the map very carefully just to avoid human gatherings, even though its power could easily It kills many ordinary people easily, but it behaves like a misanthrope who has no interest in anything."
Avinash felt that the topic was a little off track, "That's really special, but this is different from -"
"Once!" Victoria's voice was slightly raised. She overpowered the other party's voice and forced the conversation forward. "Once, when the 'Gleaner' was sitting on a certain tree stump to rest, , a wilderness traveler suddenly appeared about two hundred meters in front of it.
"I was very concerned because that meant we had to be prepared to hunt it to avoid it doing something that might harm innocent people...and guess what, it avoided it on its own.
"She hid behind a big tree and looked at the traveler from a distance. She just watched the traveler sit down on the tree stump where she had been sitting. The traveler also looked at the map and took off his shoes to shake them off. The sand and soil inside took a long time to get up and leave... When she came back, she would pick up the leaves on the ground and wipe the tree stump before sitting down. Isn't it amazing?"
Avinash's expression turned cold again, "The cost of confusing 'her' and 'it' is huge, ma'am."
"Oh, indeed." Victoria nodded in agreement, "I won't do it next time."
"What does the 'gleaner' you are talking about have to do with this case?"
Victoria laughed, "I said before that the 'modus operandi' was very similar, right? In the end we killed it in an abandoned factory. Although its original body was aging, this chelated The thing really gives us a hard time - because it is very good at hiding in the factory floor, just like the 'assassin' last night.
"The sound of the 'Gleaner' walking is very small, and it is always easily covered up by the footsteps of other mercury needles. Not only that, it made many holes between the wall panels of the workshops and the ceilings of the lower and upper floors. , which suddenly increases the difficulty of chasing it inside the building-sometimes you are obviously about to catch it, but then you dodge and it runs away without knowing which direction it is going.
"Fortunately, it had reached the limit of its survival period and could no longer support its long-distance escape. However, considering its extremely strong counterattack ability at the time, the headquarters still sent us an extremely experienced helper... … In the end we destroyed it with zero casualties, which was an unforgettable experience.”
"Yes, fortunately." Avinash responded casually - this didn't seem to hold much information.
Victoria raised her hand and touched her neck again, "Don't you think the mark left by the 'assassin' last night is special?"
"No, I only feel threatened. This time I left scratches on my neck with lipstick. Will it be replaced by a dagger next time?" Avinash looked away. He planned to end this unpleasant conversation as soon as possible. , "What I'm more concerned about is that if it can easily pose a threat to your lives, AHgAs will probably issue a recall order to you soon."
"Maybe? Since the current murderer's behavior does not seem to cause any serious social harm, and it is not a definite fact that it is a 'deviant'... then there is a high probability that the headquarters will not be willing to take the risk and let us continue to be stationed. After all, This might put us in danger."
Avinash's ears pricked up - that was the crux of the conversation.
"So when will you probably withdraw?"
"We won't withdraw for now."
"..." Avinash looked sideways in surprise, "AHgAs are you willing to let you take this risk?"
Victoria smiled, "As you can see, the progress of the case last night was not updated simultaneously - the headquarters should not know yet that the murderer left a mark on each of us without us being prepared, and neither did I. I plan to tell the superiors... you also hope that we can stay, right?"
"Indeed," Avinash nodded, "it's always good to have more helpers."
"Then I ask you and the police department to keep silent about this, especially not to reveal these details to the AHgAs workstation in Tan Yi. If this can be done, then I am optimistic that this matter can be delayed for at least half a month. "
"Of course we will remain silent, but I still want to make it clear that the decision to stay is your personal behavior," Avinash said lightly, "Although we may be potential beneficiaries, we have no obligation to keep it confidential for you."
Victoria suddenly laughed out loud. She patted Avinash's shoulder hard. Before Avinash could react, she had already turned around and stepped onto Rishi's ambulance.
"Let's go!"
