Shinjuku Ward, Nishi-shin area.
Sakurai Tsuyoshi and Suita Morimichi had already arrived here first, and Ichijo Kaoru came to join them later.
Ryusuke Higashino continued to search for traces of No. 26 nearby while driving the machine, and kept in contact with Kaoru Ichijo at all times.
As soon as Ichijo got out of the car, he immediately walked over to Sugida and asked, "Has there been a new victim?"
Sakurai replied: "There are already more than a dozen, No. 26 must be around here!"
Ichijo nodded silently, expressing his condolences for the deceased.
Sugita Morimichi said aloud: "By the way, the inspection results from Enokida have come out for the particles found at the scene before. It is said that they are highly toxic spores, which probably survive in an environment of 35 to 40 degrees. I have arranged for someone to send gas masks."
Is that really the case? Exactly what Ryusuke said!
Ichijo Kaoru remained calm on the surface, but in his heart he trusted Ryusuke's words even more.
However, 35 to 40 degrees...that is to say, it is a hot place.
Ichijo raised his head and happened to see the air conditioner running outside the building in the distance. The air under the hot air was a little distorted.
His mind went back to where his previous victims had died.
Suddenly something clicked, "So, is that what happened?!"
"What's wrong?" Sakurai asked confused.
"It's the outdoor unit of the air conditioner." Kaori Ichijo pointed to a higher place and explained, "That guy can only kill people in a hot place near the outdoor unit!"
Sakurai and Suita thought for a moment and immediately understood the reason.
Sugita Morimichi immediately suggested, "In that case, let's launch a blanket search! His crime scene is still in Shinjuku City."
"Okay." Ichijo and Sakurai agreed quickly.
After a while, the police car transporting gas masks, gas bombs and other equipment arrived at the scene, and all the police officers gathered to distribute the weapons.
Ichijo Kaoru also armed himself and said loudly to the police officers who were ready to go: "Everyone, check whether your gas masks and special gas bombs are fully equipped."
The police officers were ordered to complete the final inspection. After everything is ready, an order is given to attack.
"Everyone disperse and pursue No. 26!"
…
At Kanto Medicine, after Ichijo and Ryusuke left, Chun Shuichi was the only one left in the office.
He got up and came to the emergency room, his expression no longer as tense as before, but Yingzi and Xiaomi were still waiting patiently here.
Godai was lying there motionless on the hospital bed. There was a stack of handmade cards beside the pillow. The top said: "For Yusuke-nii, who doesn't know when he will come back!", and next to it there was an upright mark drawn with a red pen. Thumbs up.
Seeing Chun Xiu come over, Sakurako stood up and slightly led him, saying politely: "I'm going back to the research room first. Regarding the current situation of the fifth generation, I think there should be a hint somewhere in those inscriptions, and I will too." Work hard in your own place.”
Then Yingzi packed up her things and left.
Godai Minoru stayed temporarily, and Chun talked to her about Godai Yusuke's condition, and suddenly remembered something.
He said to Minoru Godai: "By the way, there is a handmade amulet in your brother's pocket."
"The amulet...is the one made by the children!"
Godai Minoru quickly remembered that when No. 21 and No. 22 appeared, the children in the nursery together made it for Godai Yusuke.
Chun was still a little worried that Godai's sister would not accept it, so he tried to look calm and said: "It's okay, he is not a man who will disappoint the children."
"Yes." However, Godai Minoru nodded vigorously and said with a firm smile: "I believe that my brother will be fine. He promised to come and perform stomp for the children in the nursery. My brother will never break the promise. Yes!"
She didn't expect that Godai Minoru would trust her brother so much. Chun felt a little surprised, but she didn't say anything else.
News about unidentified life forms was broadcast on TV, which caught their attention.
"Regarding the latest information on unconfirmed life forms, we are now reporting again. In Shinjuku City, the area from Nishishin Ward to Yotsuya is the range where the No. 26 unconfirmed life form may appear. It has now entered a state of strict alert, and everyone in this Elementary schools, kindergartens, and nurseries in the area need to be closed to prevent danger. In addition, the police have also issued a warning to residents in the area..."
When she heard that the nearby nursery school was about to suspend classes, Godaime suddenly became worried about the children. She bent down and bowed to Chun Shuichi.
"Sorry, I have to go back to my job and work hard in my own place."
After a while, Godai Minoru left the hospital in a hurry, planning to return to Wakaba Nursery School immediately.
When they were still far away, the sounds of children playing in the nursery could already be heard here, and Godai Minoru accelerated his pace back...
…
In Shinjuku District, on the battlefield side, Ryusuke Higashino drove a motorcycle between buildings, and the police also used a large number of police forces to conduct search operations in the vicinity.
Ichijo Kaoru wore a gas mask and carefully walked in the corridor between the buildings. The surrounding air conditioners emitted sultry air, which made him sweat profusely.
But for now, everything seems to be fine.
But number 26 suddenly appears!
"Scared-" A police officer at the end of the line was quickly grabbed by the neck and lifted up, and disappeared around a corner in an instant.
The mushroom monster took the police officer away in a weird manner, came to a secret corner, took off the gas mask he was wearing, and kissed him passionately.
The officer's face was filled with fear. However, he had no ability to resist at all, and the gun had already been lost during the hijacking process.
Although Mushroom Monster's body is weak, it is only compared to other Gurungji and Kuuga. Facing ordinary humans, his power is still absolutely suppressive.
Death is coming!
"boom!"
A gunshot suddenly rang out, and Kaoru's figure appeared at the intersection. He pulled the trigger of the rifle on the mushroom monster without hesitation.
The bullet released a special poisonous gas the moment it hit the monster, and the severe pain caused the mushroom monster to stop his movements. The police officer also temporarily escaped death and survived...
It seemed that the new gas bomb was really effective. The bullet broke through the mushroom monster's skin and entered his body. After the monster was hit, it was difficult to move for a while, and the police officer also took the opportunity to escape.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Kaoru Ichijo continued to shoot with his gun, intending to suppress the enemy with firepower.
