Chapter 19 Mount Takao
As soon as the weather cleared, Xia Shang went through the discharge procedures and was discharged smoothly.
The first thing he did after being discharged from the hospital was to call Tamiya Ryoko, then rushed to the coffee shop and took the remaining information from her hand. With this information, he estimated that his fusion progress could reach 90 %.
"Are you trying to fuse parasitic beasts? What are the results of the experiment?" Xia Shang flipped through the information and saw some clues.
"Don't try to find out things you shouldn't know, otherwise I can't guarantee whether I will kill you myself."
Tamiya Ryoko's eyes were fixed on Xia Shang, with an extremely cold expression.
"OK, when the time comes, I think I will see it with my own eyes."
Xia Shang took the information and was about to leave. Tamiya Ryoko continued: "The school will resume normal teaching in one month."
"knew."
In the next month, Xia Shang appeared in famous gourmet restaurants across Tokyo.
I don’t know if it’s because the incident caused by Parasite Beast A was too bad, but anyway, the number of corpse-dismemberment murder cases like before has dropped sharply.
However, according to Xia Shang's guess, they probably did not stop killing people, but preferred to go to remote corners with few human traces.
"Xinyi, I'm here." In the maid cafe, Xia Shang sat at the window and waved to Xinyi.
"Why did you invite me to a place like this?"
Izumi Shinichi looked around curiously. This was his first time in a maid cafe.
"I heard that the coffee here is very good, so I came here to try it. Don't worry, I won't tell Satomi Murano." Immediately afterwards, Xia Shang asked the maids beside him to leave. After all, the conversation between them would not be interesting to outsiders. There is no need to know.
"You haven't had any conflicts with Tamiya Ryoko in school recently, have you?"
Xia Shang asked after taking a sip of coffee.
Sitting opposite him, Izumi Shinichi couldn't help but frown: "Just yesterday, I wanted to fight her, but she left, and she also said something."
"She believes that all creatures on the earth obey some kind of command. For example, flies are born to flap their wings, and spiders are born to build webs. When she occupied the human brain, she also received an order, that is, to destroy the human race. Eat it and wipe it clean!"
Izumi Shinichi leaned on his chair and stared at Xia Shang, "Did you also receive that order?"
Seeing Shinichi's nervous look, Xia Shang picked up the coffee and shook his head: "I have no idea about the so-called order, and the order in her mouth is more like instinct. In other words, killing or eating humans is... It’s an instinct that parasitic beasts are born with.”
"Is it instinctive?" Shinichi fell into deep thought.
"So, it's like a lion hunting an antelope, and a parasitic beast hunting humans."
"So far it seems like this." Xia Shang nodded in agreement with Xinyi's statement.
But Shinichi still couldn't figure it out. If this was the case, then the parasitic beasts should have appeared at the beginning of the birth of human beings, instead of suddenly breaking into human society like now.
"Why do they appear suddenly?"
"I don't know either. Maybe I will know in the future."
Xia Shang didn't want to continue discussing this issue with Shinichi, because it was meaningless. The emergence of parasitic beasts was more like the result of the control of the earth's consciousness. There were insurmountable problems between them and humans. Could it be that just because they appeared, humans would not destroy them? environment? This is obviously unrealistic.
"By the way, are your parents still at home?"
Xia Shang's question made Xinyi a little confused: "Do you have anything to do with them?"
Xia Shang vaguely remembered that in the original work, Xinyi's parents were attacked by a parasitic beast while traveling, and his mother was killed by the parasitic beast. The parasitic beast that killed his mother even parasitized his mother. .
"I just wanted to visit your house."
"They went on a trip yesterday and won't be back for the time being."
"So fast!" Xia Shang exclaimed subconsciously.
"What?" Xinyi always felt that Xia Shang was a little strange today.
Xia Shang felt a headache. He didn't expect that he was a step too late. Maybe Xinyi's mother had been killed. "It's not like you don't know the situation of the parasitic beasts. Why didn't you stop them? What's more, now is not a good time to travel. You must know that parasitic beasts like to attack humans in inaccessible places.”
What Xia Shang said once again aroused Izumi Shinichi's worry.
The reason why he didn't dissuade his parents was because he couldn't find a reasonable reason. He was afraid that if Mickey's existence was revealed, Mickey would kill his parents. After all, Mickey was still a parasitic beast like Tamiya Ryoko and Mr. A. The same emotionless existence.
"It should be fine. There have been almost no cases of parasitic beasts killing people recently."
Izumi Shinichi could only convince himself in this way.
"Where did your parents travel?" Xia Shang wondered if he could save anything.
"They didn't tell me when they left."
Izumi Shinichi shook his head.
Xia Shang put down the coffee in his hand and said sarcastically: "You actually dare to bet on the possibility of your parents being attacked. If your parents are killed, can you bear the consequences? Or do you mean, you don't care?"
Faced with Xia Shang's curse-like speech, Izumi Shinichi stood up angrily. At the same time, he knocked over the coffee on the table. In an instant, the hot coffee soaked his clothes. The sudden movement aroused everyone's attention. of attention.
However, as the uneasiness in his heart gradually increased, Izumi Shinichi looked down at his right hand.
"You're right. Traveling is obviously not a good choice until the parasitic beast is solved." Being poured with coffee made Izumi sober. "Some things that should be faced can never be faced." escape."
Shinichi opened the address book on his phone, found his mother's name, and clicked call.
Dudu! ! !
Finally, after more than ten seconds, the call was connected.
Listening to his mother's familiar voice in his ear, Izumi Shinichi's voice trembled with excitement.
"Ask them where they are now?" Xia Shang reminded him.
"Tell me your location quickly!"
Izumi Shinichi asked anxiously.
"It's too late to explain so much. I will tell you everything when you come back."
Soon, Shinichi got their location, "They are in Mount Takao, and it only takes one hour to get there from here."
After hanging up the phone, Izumi Shinichi couldn't wait to leave.
"Shinichi, no human being should know my existence." Mickey emerged from Shinichi's palm.
"Shut up! Believe it or not, I will cut you off directly."
Shinichi picked up the knife used to cut food on the ground and held it against his right arm.
Mickey could sense that Shinichi was serious this time.
"Are parents really that important? Humans are such strange creatures."
"How can a parasitic beast understand human emotions? You are just a group of emotionless creatures!" Izumi Shinichi stood on the side of the road and stopped a taxi without even changing his clothes that were soaked by coffee.
"Please go to Mount Takao, thank you."
