Whoosh …
The scorching sea breeze blew past, and the harbor was quiet under the night sky. There seemed to be ferocious creatures lurking in the shadows, ready to drag pedestrians into the darkness and hunt them down at any time.
Hayashi River had goosebumps. This was the first time he had experienced something like this since he transmigrated to this world.
Patrolling the scene of a serial murder, even with a group of guards around, they still felt their blood run cold.
Suddenly, the statue of the first mayor in the center of the harbor lit up like a lighthouse, illuminating the night sky and pointing the way for the ships in the York Inland Sea.
"That's …?!" Lin Chuan looked at the statue, his eyes filled with shock.
"What's wrong? This statue of the first mayor is also known as the lighthouse of the White Arrow Harbor. It lights up late at night. It's so beautiful! "Mu Shuangye said.
Meron nodded. The statue was carved from top-grade White Frost Stone, and its texture was close to that of a gem. Such a spectacle would only appear at night.
Hayashi River lowered his head and rubbed his forehead, which was burning hot. What he saw was completely different from the others.
In his eyes, the statue did not emit a gentle white light. Instead, it was shrouded in a layer of mist, and scarlet flames danced around it. It was incomparably hot, and it looked like a scarlet torch in the night sky.
The eyes of the statue were also blood-red. They stared at the sea, and it gave off a creepy feeling that made people shudder.
Even though they were hundreds of meters apart, looking directly at the statue, Hayashi River felt a chill that made his body tense up.
However, the burning sensation on his forehead dispelled the chill.
What's with this statue of the first mayor?
Hayashi River had a headache, but he could only pretend that nothing was wrong and patrol with the others.
Whoosh …
Suddenly, a strange sound came from afar, and a few guards shouted on the spot.
Zhou Huan and the others had already pulled out their guns and aimed at the source of the sound.
Around the port, searchlights immediately shone over, landing on the distant sea surface. A figure flickering with white light leaped from the sea, emitting a sharp whistling sound. Like a huge arrow, it drew a beautiful parabola in the air, piercing into the sea and disappearing.
Hayashi River's eyes twitched. He could vaguely see that it was a giant white fish about five meters long. Like a White Arrow, it was extremely fast and swam into the depths of the York Inland Sea in a flash.
"That's the White Arrow Fish King!?" someone exclaimed.
The White Arrow Fish was generally only the size of a palm, and rarely more than half a meter. The White Arrow Fish that was more than three meters could be called the White Arrow Fish King.
Curses could be heard from the surroundings. The patrolling guards thought that there was another murder case, but who knew that it was just a false alarm.
Although the King White Arrow Fish was rare, no one was in the mood to care about it at such a time.
In fact, the King White Arrow Fish was precious, and its entire body was a treasure. A King Fish was worth tens of thousands of gold coins.
However, it was too difficult to capture the White Arrow Fish King. Ordinary radars could not locate it at all. They needed a special radar specially made by the Haiga Tribe to track the movement of the King Fish.
At this moment, a guard hover car flew over and stopped at various parts of the port. The elite guards jumped out of the car and were in charge of strengthening the port's night defense.
The guards patrolling everywhere heaved a sigh of relief. With the Elite garrison here, they were undoubtedly much more at ease.
Hayashi River also heaved a sigh of relief. Patrolling the port where this strange statue was located was like a scene in a horror movie, causing a certain part of his back to tense up from time to time.
Zhou Huan put away his gun and called Hayashi River to follow. His face was a little pale, and it was obvious that he had been quite frightened just now.
However, he could not lose face in front of his junior, Hayashi River, so he could only pretend to be calm.
The group of people walked towards the container area again. Suddenly, Hayashi River's body stiffened, and all the hair on his body stood up. He saw patterns on the containers on his left and right. They were scarlet in color and filled with a demonic aura.
At this moment, an invisible force surged over and surrounded him. As if he was drowning, Hayashi River found it difficult to breathe and could not move.
What's going on?
Could it be that the statue of the first mayor has come to life?
Hayashi River secretly complained. He regretted not taking sick leave and escaping when he discovered the abnormality of the statue.
At this moment, he felt his forehead become even hotter. A blazing aura surged out from there and spread throughout his body, quickly calming him down.
Crack!
The moment his body regained mobility, the scene around him shattered like glass. Hayashi River looked around. The scarlet patterns on the containers were still there, but there was no terrifying sense of oppression.
At this moment, Hayashi River noticed that Mu Shuangye's expression was a little strange. The little beauty was also looking around, as if she had discovered something.
"Shuangye, what's wrong?" Meron asked in a low voice.
Mu Shuangye shook her head. She was using the Mu family's unique Insight Secret Technique, but she did not discover anything. However, she still felt that something was wrong.
"Hurry up and catch up. It's the first time we're on overnight duty, so it's easy to get tired. You'll be fine once you get used to it." Zhou Huan shouted in front.
"Wait …" Hayashi River pulled Mu Shuangye, wanting to say something but hesitated.
Mu Shuangye was stunned and stopped as well.
Woo woo woo …
A series of urgent sirens sounded. The guards at the scene pulled out their guns one by one and ran towards the location of the sirens.
That direction was the side of the container area.
Did something happen?!
"The three of you stay here, don't go over …" Zhou Huan threw such a sentence and rushed over as well.
When a large group of guards rushed into the container area, Hayashi River was shocked to find that the scarlet patterns had begun to fade, and the demonic cold aura was also quickly fading away.
At this time, the port was in chaos. There were constant ear-piercing screams coming from all directions, as if someone had seen something terrifying.
Among them, there was a woman's scream that was the most recognizable …
Hayashi River remembered this woman's voice. She was a female guard at the garrison. In the afternoon, she would look for Meron whenever she had something to talk to. She had a beautiful oval face, fair skin, and a sweet voice, like a slightly ripe peach. The way she looked at Meron was as if she wanted to swallow him up.
However, she did not expect her scream to be so high-pitched …
Waves of sirens pierced through the port's night sky. The guards quickly took action and completely sealed off the port.
Hayashi River and the other two were stopped outside. As guards, they were not allowed to approach the crime scene without permission.
"Is the crime scene over there? I did have a premonition that something was wrong, but my family's Insight Secret Skill didn't respond. "
Mu Shuangye said in annoyance.
"The Insight Secret Skill didn't respond, which means that the other party is a scary guy who can restrain his murderous aura. Fortunately, we didn't meet him, or else we would have been in danger …" Meron said in a low voice.
Hayashi River was shocked. At this moment, he realized that there was a burning sensation on his forehead, and what was going on with the strange situation he saw.
Was that the so-called "murderous aura"?
"Hayashi River, what did you sense just now …" Mu Shuangye looked over.
"I just felt that something was wrong. I have always been sensitive to danger since I was young, "Hayashi River replied.
Mu Shuangye and Meron were a little shocked. An innate sense of danger was a rare talent.
Hayashi River, on the other hand, felt a little guilty. If he had figured it out earlier, he would have been able to see the "murderous aura", and perhaps the murder just now could have been avoided.
Half an hour later, Instructor Kree arrived. He looked terrible and waved for Hayashi River and the other two to follow him.
"It's your first day on duty, and you've already encountered such a thing. I don't know if you guys are lucky or unlucky …"
"Forget it, you guys are lucky. It's your first day on guard duty, and you've already encountered such a murder case. This can be considered the best lesson …"
As Instructor Kree spoke, he cursed harshly. He had just arrived at the scene and was obviously shaken.
At a corner of the container area, it had been sealed off. Inside and outside, there were elite guards in full gear.
"Hayashi River, why are you here …"
Zhou Huan saw Hayashi River and was about to reprimand him and ask him to leave so that he wouldn't be frightened by the murder scene and have nightmares at night.
However, when he saw Instructor Kree's figure, he swallowed what he was about to say.
As Hayashi River and the other two approached, they were stunned by the scene in front of them. The goods around them were stained with blood patterns, but the ground was very clean. There was no trace of blood at all. It was a strange scene.
As for the patterns, they were the scarlet patterns that Hayashi River had seen before.
There were more than ten corpses lying neatly on the ground. There were men and women, old and young people …
These corpses were as pale as paper. Their eyes were tightly shut, and their hands were crossed in front of their chests. They looked very peaceful as if they were asleep.
The scene was demonic, as if some mysterious ritual was being carried out. Hayashi River vaguely remembered that a certain clan in the Western Land would carry out a similar ritual, but he couldn't remember which clan it was at the moment.
"They are …"
Mu Shuangye exclaimed. She recognized the identities of a few of the dead. They were the few young people who were on the large hover car outside the sentry post during the day.
Hayashi River could tell as well. He couldn't help but look at her. The latter's pretty face turned stiff and she glared at him.
