"Boy, what are you doing here if you haven't gone home so late?"
The sudden sound startled Lu Mingfei, and he subconsciously slowly opened his eyes.
The rain in the sky seems to have stopped suddenly?
No, it was the umbrella held by the man in front of me that blocked the falling rain.
Raindrops pattered on the dark umbrella, and through the weak light of the street lamp, Mingfei finally saw clearly the face of the figure approaching him.
"You...you were...that day..."
"Oh? I didn't expect that your memory is quite good."
Seeing that Lu Mingfei seemed to have an impression of him, Sun Haoran smiled softly. It was a real honor for him to remember his appearance in just a short glance.
After receiving an almost affirmative reply from the other party, Lu Mingfei felt a wave of turmoil in his heart.
Good guy, it turns out that this world didn't have a problem just now, it has always been a problem, but he just saw it clearly today through this inexplicable 'game'.
I didn’t expect that a courier I met casually on the roadside before turned out to be such a terrifying creature whose level could not even be judged! Thinking of this, Lu Mingfei felt a chill in his back for no apparent reason.
But...it doesn't look like the person in front of me is going to kill him? He swallowed and cautiously said hello.
"Night...good evening..."
"What the hell!"
Sun Haoran placed the umbrella in his hand directly on Lu Mingfei's head.
"Get out of here, this is not the place you should stay. Either find a place to hide from the rain, or go home quickly. Are you looking for death by wandering around in the night?"
He could completely tell that Lu Mingfei at this moment was just an ordinary high school student who was extremely weak, with no explosive muscles on his thin body.
Such a guy staying in the 'work area' of the company's employees in the middle of the night is simply a complete 'trouble' and serves no purpose other than making their work more difficult.
"..."
Lu Mingfei, who was soaked all over, was scolded for no apparent reason, but the strange thing was that he actually felt that the scolding was right, and he even missed the scolding.
Subconsciously holding the handle of the umbrella hanging on his head, Lu Mingfei raised his head and found that the man in front of him had disappeared.
Only the cold touch in his hands and the sound of raindrops falling on the umbrella cloth above his head reminded him that this was not an illusion.
"I know I was wrong, and I won't wander around at night again..."
Lu Mingfei's eyes seemed a little moist, and he didn't know whether it was because of the rain just now, or because he was lucky to have missed death again.
All he wanted now was to go home quickly, knock on the security door that he usually didn't want to enter, and then be scolded by his aunt.
······
"Really, I didn't expect that on a rainy day, there would be people wandering around in the middle of the night."
Sun Haoran sighed while speeding up the pace.
The appearance of Lu Mingfei made him realize the danger of allowing these hybrids to continue causing chaos.
While they were leisurely doing their work, there might be lucky viewers like Lu Mingfei who would be randomly taken away.
Although it didn't seem to be his concern, they would be the ones to deal with the consequences in the end if something really happened.
"It's so troublesome, can you be a little more professional?"
With that said, Sun Haoran's figure disappeared. The next moment, when he reappeared, he was already in front of the barbecue stall that the employee pointed to.
The violent movement carried a large number of raindrops, extinguishing the rising charcoal fire.
"Hey, hey, hey - what are you doing, kid?"
I don't know when a huge umbrella was put up in front of the barbecue stall, and the few remaining employees under the umbrella still played the roles of customers and stall owners.
"Are you still having a barbecue here?"
Sun Haoran was stunned, looking at the employees sitting in front of the barbecue stall making skewers.
"Where are the others here?"
"They went to a nearby Internet cafe to check the situation, but there is no news yet. You ran in such a hurry, what happened?"
Seeing Sun Haoran running over in such a hurry, the 'stall owner' took off the apron around his waist and his expression became serious. The others seemed to have realized something and quickly suppressed their dissatisfaction.
They have not forgotten that they are on standby. If an emergency occurs, they will put down what they are doing and rush to support as soon as possible.
"Does that mean you have nothing to do now? I just joined the department and I don't understand. Don't you worry about the safety of ordinary people when executing the work of the department?"
Sun Haoran pointed in the direction of Lu Mingfei, "When I came here just now, there was a lost child over there who was really wet in the rain."
"Boy, couldn't you just take care of it when you saw it?" someone complained.
"Okay, don't make any noise."
The stall owner frowned upon hearing this.
They didn't pay much attention to the young man when he passed by here just now. Although there were very few people outside in the early morning, there were still some who came out for late-night snacks. They will not specifically take care of these people. After all, they usually cannot get such a large-scale 'ban' and do not have the power to prohibit ordinary people from traveling.
This will lead to a situation like now, because the search range is too large, so there is no way to worry about the safety of every civilian. This is inevitable. They can't send people to protect everyone. In that case, they might as well step up to find the target and solve it.
Moreover, they came in an armed helicopter this time to put pressure on the target and force the other party to find a way to hide. In this way, it would be much safer for the ordinary people around them.
The area was full of company employees. Under normal circumstances, as long as there was a slight disturbance, employees would rush to the scene to provide support, but the rain interfered with their judgment.
Rainy days are the most suitable days for them to work, because few ordinary people travel on rainy days, but conversely, rainy days are also the weather that is convenient for targets to escape, because rain like this will interfere with the actions of employees.
If there were one or two hostages on the road, the target would probably be even happier.
But under normal circumstances this kind of thing shouldn't happen, right? Because the area around here is full of their own people, the kid can just find a convenience store to take shelter from the rain, so that bad situation won't happen.
Besides, it’s better to find a place to take shelter on a rainy day, right?
But who knew that Lu Mingfei was such a stupid kid that he had to run home in the rain?
"Damn it, it's raining so heavily, won't that brat find a place to take shelter?"
Some employees complained.
"Stop complaining, this is our job too."
The 'stall owners' opened the lid of the push refrigerator and pushed aside the barbecue materials used to cover up. Below were the various weapons they carried for this operation.
"Get your equipment and follow me."
Before leaving, he patted Sun Haoran on the shoulder and said thank you, "Thank you, brother. It was indeed our negligence. I didn't expect that there would be such a fool who would walk in the rain in a heavy rain. Alas, what if it happened? Those who are sacrificed must not be scolded to death by the minister when they return."
