"Are you doubting me?"
The Funeral Society member pointed at himself and exclaimed in shock.
Kieran didn't confirm or deny it, but his eyes didn't move away from her.
The Funeral Society member smiled bitterly right away.
"I swear to you, I don't know the route this Fiend Hunter took to Saint Brilliant High School!
In fact, when I sent out reinforcements to the HQ, the HQ assigned the reinforcements randomly. Other than some of the higher-ups in the HQ, no one else would know the route the reinforcements took and to the higher-ups in the HQ, although the Jar of Sealing Fiends is precious, it wouldn't reach the point where they would betray their own men! "
Lee explained at a rapid pace.
It wasn't the first time he came across a Monster Hunter whose actions were faster than their brains. Even though Kieran didn't seem like such a person, Lee wasn't willing to take the risk.
"Hmph!
It's just that the benefits aren't enough! "
Oaker grunted coldly beside him.
The death of his comrade made Oaker unable to hold back his rage and the rage directly affected his emotions.
Though, both Kieran and the Funeral Society members expressed their understanding.
Of course, Kieran really understood it.
As for the Funeral Society members?
At least on the surface.
"I hope you can believe me!"
Lee looked at Kieran and said.
"I'll reserve my opinion."
After Kieran said that, he turned around to Oaker.
The Funeral Society member heaved a sigh of relief. He knew that his safety would not be a problem for the time being.
However, when he heard what Kieran said next, he pricked up his ears.
"How is it?
Did anything change since when you left? "
Kieran asked.
"Changes?
Does flipping the sky and earth count? When I left, there were still six of them here, including a young lad who just graduated from school and called me teacher in the morning and a young lady from forensics who was getting married next week! "
"And now?"
"All of them were ambushed and laid dead here!"
"That damn bastard! I will find that bastard and make him regret living in this world!"
Oaker growled in an agitated tone.
"Believe me, I'm the same as you. I want that guy to regret being born into this world. So, we need to take action …"
Kieran then turned his attention to the Funeral Society member.
He had just breathed a sigh of relief, but now, he immediately became nervous.
"Sir?"
Lee asked cautiously.
I need you to contact the Funeral Society HQ again and request for reinforcements. "
Kieran said slowly.
"But I've already issued a special assistance investigation …"
"This is your chance to prove yourself!"
Kieran directly interrupted the other party's words. His indifferent expression did not change, but there was a hint of sharpness in his eyes.
Lee's body shuddered when he faced such a gaze. Then, Lee clenched his teeth fiercely.
"Alright, alright!"
"I will give it my all!"
After that, he went straight to the side where the cars were parked and contacted the Funeral Society HQ in a very secretive way.
"I don't believe him!"
Oaker said as he looked at Lee's figure further away.
Kieran didn't further comment on the matter.
He didn't even believe the inspector before him.
Though, even if he didn't believe Lee, Kieran wouldn't mind Lee joining his upcoming plans.
…
"Why are we looking for trouble with the other fiends?
Do you think they are involved in this incident? "
Oaker walked out from the filing room of the station and looked at Kieran who was leaning against the wall with a puzzled expression. Still, he passed the file in his hand to Kieran.
"These are the files of the strange murders and missing persons that happened in the few blocks that you asked for …"
"Are you sure this will work?"
Oaker was slightly hesitant.
"Of course!
"I can assure you that this will be more useful than you imagined. You will get the results you want, and I will also get the benefits I want."
Kieran nodded in an affirmative manner.
It wasn't exactly a lie.
He already had a general idea on who was the one who killed the Funeral Society's reinforcements.
After all, the clues were too obvious.
Of course, obvious clues usually meant accidents.
So, in order to minimize accidents, Kieran didn't want to be a part of it right away. He wanted to wait patiently.
However, he also didn't want to waste time waiting.
Therefore, the negative energy that he sensed along the way provided him with the perfect choice.
It could confuse those who were paying attention to him and also provide him with the rewards he desired.
"Let's hope so!"
Oaker said after a deep breath when he saw Kieran flipping through the files in the corridor.
Compared to the Funeral Society members, he was more willing to trust Kieran before him.
Even though Kieran struck him as a few times more dangerous, he still felt the same way.
Because he didn't sense any disgusting presence from Kieran.
…
The commercial street was bustling with activity.
The crowd was endless and the shops were filled with dazzling items. After the sun set, the street was even shrouded by colorful neon lights.
However, when Kieran walked into some of the back alleys, darkness suddenly appeared.
The bustling and noisy street was blown into the back alleys along with the night breeze but it didn't bring any liveliness to the place. Quite the opposite, it made the place even quieter.
It even added a sense of strangeness to the place.
Kieran slowly stepped into the back alleys.
Fuuu!
A night breeze blew over.
The gloomy and cold presence assaulted Kieran's face but before it got close to him, it vanished without a trace.
Under normal sight, Kieran's A + Intuition could faintly see some blurry figures.
However, under [Tracking]'s vision, the blurry figures were clearly visible.
Their translucent bodies were either headless or legless.
Most of them had their stomachs dissected.
Their colorful organs were left with nothing but scraps.
A faintly discernible stench filled the entire back alleys.
Wandering souls!
Among them, there were quite a number of evil spirits as well.
However, these wandering souls, even evil spirits, started to retreat before they even got close to Kieran.
Kieran, who was emanating an unusual aura, was very scary in the eyes of souls.
However, it was a fatal temptation to certain existences.
Kak, Kak, Kak!
The flat tiles on the ground started to tremble slightly.
Within a breath's time, the trembling frequency rose rapidly, like an earthquake.
Then, a crimson palm broke through the ground.
The palm was the size of a door, and the hairs on it that looked like sharp barbs stood up as it pushed against the ground. The cold light it emitted was enough to make people tremble, but compared to the entire body that was about to be revealed, this palm was nothing.
It had a three-meter-tall body and strong limbs, but it did not have a head. There was only a cracked abdomen filled with mouthparts that looked like strands of hair.
Kak Cha, Kak Cha!
The mouthparts opened and closed ceaselessly.
Tiny teeth were clearly visible in Kieran's sight.
However, his attention wasn't on the monster but on the roof beside him.
A black bird was standing there.
Its yellow eyes were staring at Kieran.
"As expected!"
Kieran smiled coldly in his heart.
