In the past, Hayashi River had only seen these races in books and videos. Now that he had seen them with his own eyes, he was greatly satisfied with his curiosity.
In the distance, silver ribbons were faintly discernible on the blue sea surface. They were schools of White Arrow Fish. They were extremely fast and disappeared in an instant.
Now, Hayashi River felt that it was quite good to be on duty at the port. It was a good job, if he didn't have to be on duty all night at night.
However, for Mu Shuangye, being on duty at the port was perhaps the most regrettable thing she had ever done in her life.
From afternoon to evening, she had been hit on and harassed no less than a hundred times. Furthermore, there were all sorts of strange reasons, which was an eye-opener for Hayashi River.
"Human beauty, are you interested in being a guest in our tribe? I'm the chief of a tribe in the Western Continent!"
A eagle-headed man in a well-ironed suit, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed sunglasses, and all the feathers on his body stood up, showing off his heroic bearing. He extended an invitation to Mu Shuangye.
If not for the strict warning from the guards on duty and the threat of deportation, the eagle-headed man would have been able to pester her for another half an hour.
Only then did Hayashi River understand that displaying their beautiful feathers was not exclusive to peacocks. Many of the birds in this world had such a habit.
"Beautiful lady, you have a unique radiance on you. You should be born to be a Heart Essence Shaman. Come back to the Western Continent with me!"
A middle-aged man dressed as a Heart Essence Shaman had a solemn expression on his face when he saw Mu Shuangye. He asked her to give up on being a guard trainee and return to the Western Continent with him immediately. He did not want her talent to be buried here.
Looking at the middle-aged man being chased away by the guards, Hayashi River felt that he had learned something. It turned out that this was how the charlatans of this world deceived beauties.
Of course, if that was all, Mu Shuangye could still tolerate it. She came from an extraordinary background and had many suitors since she was young. She had seen such tricks before.
However, the port was famous for being a place where crooks mixed with the honest folk. Some people's actions were not so civilized.
Du du …
Not far from the port's sentry post, an ear-piercing horn sounded. In a large hover car, a group of young men dressed in strange leather clothes were whistling at Mu Shuang Ye. A few of them were even shaking their waists, and their bodies were swaying in a joyous manner.
By the time the guards went over to berate them, the large hover car had already started moving and was speeding away while laughing maniacally.
"These bastards …"
Mu Shuangye was so angry that her face turned red. If she wasn't on duty, she would have rushed over with her saber.
Now, she could only stand there. She wanted to curse out loud, but she didn't know what to say. The good education she had received since she was young made her unable to find any malicious words to vent the anger in her heart even if she wanted to curse out.
"Shuangye, don't take it to heart. If we meet these brats in the future, we'll teach them a lesson." A guard comforted her.
Some of the guards in the Silver Arrow Harbor had heard about Mu Shuangye's background. They were quite polite and considerate of her. They would make things convenient for her if it was within their scope of authority.
"Thank you, senior. I didn't take it to heart." Mu Shuangye squeezed out a smile. Her tightly clenched fists were a little white. Clearly, she didn't think the same way.
Hayashi River expressed his sympathy. Mu Shuangye's temper was too good. If it were him, with his strength of Stage 7 Psychic Force, he would have already gone up to teach those guys a lesson. He would also confiscate the flashy hover car and drive it back to the station to have some fun.
With this little beauty's family background, settling these disputes was not a problem at all.
Hayashi River glanced at Meron. He saw that the latter was very calm. He didn't have any reaction to Mu Shuangye's encounter. It seemed that this guy didn't have any other thoughts about this little beauty. He just wanted to be her bodyguard. It was impossible to incite him to make a move and make a big deal out of it.
While his thoughts were running wild, Hayashi River suddenly noticed that Mu Shuangye was staring at him. Her intelligent eyes were full of condemnation.
"Hayashi River, are you just going to stand there and watch a girl's embarrassment?" Mu Shuangye gritted her teeth. She had nowhere to vent her anger. Moreover, when she saw this guy's naturally narrowed eyes, she felt that he was mocking her.
"I was born with this appearance. I actually sympathize with Miss Mu's experience."
Hayashi River defended himself. Although he was watching a joke, how could he admit to it? "Miss Mu, didn't your family send other experts to protect you in secret? You can send them over to punish those bastards. To deal with these despicable fellows, you have to use violence to curb violence! "
"I suspect that you're instigating me to commit a crime …"
Mu Shuangye's beautiful eyes widened. Shortly after, she shook her head. Although what Hayashi River had said was exactly what she was thinking, she couldn't do it. Her family wouldn't allow such a violation during the training.
"Our family has its own rules. We can't casually violate the rules."
Hayashi River was stunned. Was this the education principle of a big aristocratic family? It was completely different from the small aristocratic children of Nanro College. It was already good enough that the latter didn't bully others.
Seeing that Mu Shuangye was still angry, Hayashi River said, "Actually, you should curse these guys. You'll feel better this way. I often use this method of mental victory. It's very useful."
Mu Shuangye's eyes lit up. She curled her lips and said, "This kind of behavior is too rude. Hayashi River, how do you usually curse?"
It turned out that she lacked the vocabulary to curse. Perhaps this was the drawback of being an elite aristocratic family. She lacked the means to vent her emotions …
With this sympathy in his heart, Lin Chuan taught Mu Shuangye some of the essence of a national curse in the manner of an expert.
"Motherf * cker! @ …%&¥Bastard! @ #% … "
Mu Shuangye's beautiful eyes widened. The words that came out of this young man's mouth belonged to the Eastern and Western Continents. She could understand most of them. These words were filled with malice. She really didn't know who created them.
"Read it once. You'll feel much better." Hayashi River said with a smile.
"Forget it … this is too …"
Mu Shuangye shook her head. She really couldn't say so many vulgarities. If this were to spread to the elders in her family, they would probably faint.
However, Mu Shuangye recited it a few times in her heart. She felt her anger gradually dissipate and her mood became much better.
On the side, Meron was expressionless. His brows were tightly knitted. After reciting the "national cursing" a few times, his brows relaxed.
Hayashi River saw this and smiled without saying a word.
…
As night fell, the wind at the port suddenly became stronger. The flags on the tower were fluttering.
There were fewer and fewer people at the pier, and only a few workers were moving and unloading goods. Accompanied by the whistling sea breeze blowing through the night sky, the harbor seemed especially quiet, and it revealed a trace of penetrating coldness.
Usually, the port was not like this at night. This month, there had been a series of murders. The guards issued a strict order. No one dared to loiter here at night.
"It seems that nothing will happen tonight …"
In a container area, a team of guards was patrolling. Searchlights swayed everywhere, illuminating the shadowy corners.
"Brother Huan, are there any clues about the murders at the port this month?"
Hayashi River asked a young guard. This was his senior from Nanro College. He had been working at the White Arrow Port Garrison for almost ten years. In just one afternoon, Hayashi River had become quite familiar with him.
"Junior, this is not something you trainees should know. The more you know about these murders, the worse it is."
Zhou Huan reprimanded him. He looked at the leader in front of him and then lowered his voice. "These murders are handled by elite officers. Ordinary guards like us are not strong enough. We don't even have the Psychic Force 7-dan. We can't even equip ourselves with four pieces of Heart Element Equipment. If we really encounter these vicious guys, we won't even know how we died. Don't ask around. "
Hayashi River nodded. Wasn't it boring to be on duty all night? He had to find some topics to talk about.
If no one said anything while patrolling the scene of such a serial murder, the atmosphere would be too strange and a little creepy.
Zhou Huan glanced at Mu Shuangye and Meron. Seeing that both of them were also curious, he revealed some more information.
"According to forensic identification, the murders this month were done by at least three criminal groups. If this news gets out, the entire White Arrow Port will panic …"
Although the White Arrow Port was chaotic and murders happened all year round, it was rare for there to be consecutive murders in a month.
What's more, the murderers of this serial murder were not the same group of people.
If this news got out, the director of the White Arrow Port Garrison would immediately be dismissed. Therefore, the news of this serial murder was tightly sealed.
"Among these murderers, are there any aliens from the Western Continent?" Mu Shuangye asked.
Zhou Huan shook his head. There was no alien modus operandi. If there were really aliens from the Western Continent committing a crime, it would have been impossible to cover it up. The higher-ups would have sent special guards to take over.
Hayashi River looked at Mu Shuangye and felt that she was hinting at something.
