Inside an apartment.
Chen Ye calmly drank his coffee while watching the rain outside. It had been noisy for a while now.
The sound of police sirens was incessant, and he had no idea what was happening.
"Societal unrest," he muttered.
Those people were truly useless. It had been so long, and still no news.
"I'll just do it myself then."
As Chen Ye spoke, he picked up a bottle of potion from the table.
He twisted open the cap and downed the potion in one gulp.
Gulp!
Pfft!
"What is this?"
Chen Ye's eyes suddenly widened. His limbs began to twitch and contort, and countless strange silk threads appeared around him!
Meanwhile, at the Nanyan Hotel.
Queen Bee suddenly received a message from Chen Ye.
"Huh?"
Li Yuan looked at Queen Bee. "What is it now?"
Queen Bee placed her phone on the table, displaying the message for them all to see.
"An important message from the boss."
"He's asking if we got the blood."
Blood?
What blood?
They were all confused.
Li Yuan returned to his human form, his wounds already healed. "What blood? Didn't the boss say to kill him?"
"Wait a minute, was our mission slightly different?"
"You mean?"
"When did the boss tell you to kill Chu Yang?"
"Are you sure the boss didn't tell you to get blood?"
"Is... is that so? That's what I heard on the phone that day... The boss said to find a way to kill him..."
"Are you sure he didn't say 'find a way to get some blood'?"
"...Uh."
"The boss said he needed materials. That kid is very likely the pharmaceutical material the boss needs. You must be hard of hearing!"
Everyone covered their faces. They had heard from 002 that they were supposed to kill Chu Yang and hadn't thought much of it.
Now that they thought about it, this was a huge problem!
Queen Bee slapped her thigh as she spoke.
"So, the boss intended to capture him alive from the beginning, but we killed the boss's material?"
"This..."
Li Yuan felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing this.
If the boss had indeed ordered him to capture the target alive, and he had directly killed him, it would have greatly angered the boss.
Although they had never seen the boss angry, that was precisely the problem!
No one knew the price of angering the boss!
As the saying goes, water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize it.
The boss could grant them power, and he could just as easily take it away!
And that might just be the simplest punishment!
"Are... are we going to die?"
"Yeah, with the boss's temper, he might just kill us to vent his anger..."
"Wait, there's a chance Chu Yang might still be alive!"
"Alive?"
"You mean the one the police took away just now?"
"It's actually possible!"
"Hurry and confirm it, see if it's Chu Yang, what if he's still alive!"
"Yeah, what if..."
"No, wait a moment..."
"Did we forget something?"
"It seems like..."
"Oh no!"
The few people suddenly realized they had forgotten something!
"003 is already on their way!"
"Quick, call them back immediately!"
A car accident occurred in front of the City Hospital.
The scale of the accident was immense, with a string of police cars crashing into each other, causing a significant number of casualties.
But that wasn't the worst part!
The worst was that one of the injured, just pulled from the wreckage, was on those very police cars!
Flames soared, black smoke billowed, and chaos reigned in front of the hospital.
Wang Haonan lit a cigarette as he looked at the scene before him, turning to leave. "Hoo..."
"It's over."
Just then, Wang Haonan's phone suddenly rang.
"Hello."
"003, is the job done?!"
"It's finished."
"...The target is dead?"
"Dead."
"It's over..."
Wang Haonan exhaled a puff of smoke. "What happened?"
"No, nothing... You should come back first," a woman's voice came from the phone.
"Understood."
Wang Haonan tossed the cigarette butt into the water and turned to leave.
After he left, a dark figure emerged from a wrecked car.
"Cough, cough, luckily I... still have Deep Sea Breath, uh, I can't hold on... I feel like my body is falling apart..."
The next day.
Yesterday's events made the news, but they were only classified as a simple fire and car accident.
The casualties of the North Ridge police went unnoticed, and their superiors were indifferent.
The reason for all this was that the Queen Bee had already gained complete control over North Ridge City.
By mixing her bodily fluids into alcoholic beverages, she had gained control over a large number of North Ridge citizens and high-ranking officials in various sectors of the city.
All the reports that the North Ridge police had submitted up the chain were ultimately dismissed because of this.
At this moment, they felt even more powerless.
Inside the North Ridge City Police Department, the chief was writing a report.
"The entire North Ridge City seems to be wrapped in a giant net. Someone here is covering everything up, acting with impunity."
"We are like fish in a net, dogs in a cage, all our voices suppressed."
"Our cries go unheard, our deaths unheeded. The reason they dare to be so reckless must be that someone is assisting them."
"Assisting... assisting those monsters, how absurd!"
Bang!
The chief slammed his fist on the desk. "The upper echelons have been infiltrated!"
"I'm going to the Capital myself!"
Just then, a police officer walked in holding a document.
"Chief, this... this is what Captain Yang entrusted us to give you before he died."
The chief fell silent.
"Yang Yan..."
He miraculously survived that collapse, only to die in an unexplained car accident.
This whole thing is just...
Damn it!
The director's hands trembled as he took the file, seeing five large characters written on it.
"Nine-Tailed Fox Plan?"
The director opened the file and read:
"If this document wasn't handed over by me personally, then I must already be dead. Don't mourn for me. From the day I became a police officer, I was prepared for this."
At the very beginning of the file was Yang Yan's will.
Afterward, he elaborated on a hypothesis about the relationship between humans and monsters, and recorded all the information he had gathered about monsters within it.
Finally, he proposed a method for dealing with these monsters.
Establish an organization specifically targeting those supernatural creatures or phenomena, to understand them, contain them, and control them!
"Open the shackles on our minds, break through the barriers of our perception, and do not view the incomprehensible with common sense."
"They are not human. If we treat them as we would humans, humanity will never be able to defeat monsters."
"We must first dare to imagine, open our minds like Chu Yang. The abilities of monsters are boundless, and they will not conform to our understanding!"
"First try to imagine, then try to understand. The way to defeat monsters may lie within the monsters themselves!"
"We must find the solutions to these monsters, and the answers to all of this, from the monsters themselves!"
"We contain, we control, we protect?"
