You Attacked First
"You want to become Contract Anomalist?"
Mi Lan saw right through his thoughts.
Sheng Yang hesitated. Did he want to?
Before this, he probably wouldn't have wanted to.
But after experiencing this...
Although he had never actually confronted the supernatural directly, he had heard that strange things were appearing downstairs in the park of his neighborhood.
So close to him.
Perhaps, one morning, while he was out for a walk or exercise in the park, he had just brushed past that eerie creature.
Anyone who heard this would shudder.
"I..."
Mi Lan: "Don't make this decision because of your momentary fear. The life of Contract Anomalist is far more dangerous than you imagine."
"Because we not only have to fight against the bizarre, but also confront the many unfathomable aspects of human nature."
A red, furry monster emerged from beneath Mi Lan's feet.
He swallowed Mi Lan and Sheng Yang whole in one gulp.
And just as it swallowed the two of them...
The ground suddenly exploded.
A deafening roar.
The paving stones were blown off, the surrounding utility poles were blasted into pieces and fell down, and the GG brand vehicles, electric bikes, motorcycles and cars parked on the street were all blown to pieces.
Even cars in the distance that weren't affected by the commotion had their sirens blaring.
Fortunately, no pedestrians were affected.
The damaged items were all personal belongings.
After the explosion subsided, the red-haired monster spat the two of them out again.
Sheng Yang's mind went blank.
The deafening explosion made his heart clench, especially when he saw the devastation left behind by the explosion.
"What's going on?" Sheng Yang shouted in disbelief.
Gas explosion?
Sewer explosion?
Mi Lan, on the other hand, has identified a specific location.
"Fun toys are coming your way!"
Mi Lan's tone was very cheerful, like a child who had finally found his favorite toy.
"Toy?"
What toys grow legs and come to you on their own?
Having spent too little time with Mi Lan, Sheng Yang Mi Lan doesn't quite understand her personality.
But the next moment, he realized what this toy that had come to him meant.
Because those who attacked them from the shadows did not give up.
Mi Lan had somehow produced a paper knife, and just as he was about to slash himself...
A bullet was fired from a distance.
Bang!
The bullet was blocked by the red-haired monster's body.
Ding-dong.
The bullet didn't penetrate the red monster's body; it bounced off like it hit highly elastic rubber and landed on the ground.
Sheng Yang's eyes widened.
If he hadn't known what was happening at that time, he wouldn't have been able to so keenly sense the business opportunity in the early years, seize the trend of that era, and make a fortune through live streaming.
Those capable of using firearms cannot be supernatural beings; they can only be humans.
Do the Contract Anomalist not only have to fight against the supernatural, but also against the humans lurking in the shadows?
Why?
The Contract Anomalist is clearly protecting humanity.
Another bullet came flying in.
This time, the target is Sheng Yang, who is standing next to Mi Lan.
Perhaps Sheng Yang was also mistaken for Contract Anomalist, or perhaps he was just threatening Mi Lan Mi Lan distract her.
The red-haired monster went to block the Sheng Yang at that moment.
Several bullets were fired simultaneously.
Pfft!
A bullet pierced through Mi Lan's shoulder blade.
Mi Lan dodged all the other bullets.
Mi Lan seemed completely oblivious to the pain emanating from her wound.
His blood was boiling inside him.
It increased the speed of flow.
A huge amount of blood gushed out from Mi Lan's wound, almost like a fountain.
Soon, Mi Lan was completely covered in blood.
Sheng Yang's body trembled. He wanted to shout, but his throat felt like it was blocked by something, and he couldn't make a sound at all.
Don't protect me now.
Run!
How could humans possibly withstand bullets!
Mi Lan stared at the spot where the bullets had come from, his smile widening. "Hehehe, hahahahaha..."
Soon, he started laughing maniacally.
"Not enough, not enough."
He threw away the origami knife in his hand, raised his right hand, and placed it on the wound that had pierced his shoulder blade.
His fingers were stirring inside, and he was tearing at the surrounding wound with his nails.
Soon, his entire hand was stained red with blood.
"Not enough..."
The wound was torn open, and more blood flowed out.
The blood flowed down Mi Lan's body and onto the ground, quickly forming a pool of blood.
A normal person would have gone into hemorrhagic shock long ago after losing this much blood.
But Mi Lan was laughing hysterically, acting as if she were going crazy.
Sheng Yang had absolutely no idea what was going on.
His eyes were stung by the blood; a large amount of blood filled his vision.
He thought, "I'm going to die, aren't I?"
So much blood?
A child barely a teenager, a Contract Anomalist, a guardian destined to protect humanity and fight against the supernatural—was he going to die before his very eyes?
Even though the previous strange occurrences hadn't harmed the other party.
But they were killed by weapons in the hands of humans.
Is this the predicament of Contract Anomalist?
The red, furry monster seemed about to open its jaws and devour him again, but this time he wasn't afraid, because he knew it was protecting him.
"Call the police, that's right, call the police."
"Won't they dare to be so blatant after the patrols come?"
"With such a commotion here, someone must have called the police."
"Then call an ambulance. He's lost so much blood; he needs immediate treatment and a blood transfusion..."
Sheng Yang's mind was in complete chaos.
Instinctively, he took out his phone and started dialing a number.
The red-haired monster swallowed him whole.
However, he could see the outside world through the monster's body.
The bullets kept pouring in this direction.
However, none of the bullets that hit the red monster could penetrate its defenses.
This furry monster seems to have incredibly strong defenses.
It's almost as bizarre as immunity to physical weapons.
Mi Lan: "That's great, you guys took the initiative to attack."
The blood was at his feet.
Countless monsters are stirring.
They were summoned from the blood of Mi Lan.
The people around were terrified.
They took refuge inside the building.
He watched in fear as the gunshots continued to ring out outside.
"Was that a gunshot? Someone fired shots in the city?"
"Really? Doesn't our Xia Kingdom have very strict gun control?"
"It was definitely a gunshot! If it wasn't a gunshot, I'll eat shit while standing on my head!"
"Could it be a terrorist attack?"
"But there are no banks here, and it's not some special location."
There seems to be another person outside.
He was shot.
"Oh my god... it looks like a child, and there's so much blood."
"Call the police quickly! There's also an ambulance..."
"What... what kind of monsters are those?"
Countless bizarre monsters crawled out of the blood.
