Tokyo: Parasite

Chapter 353 123: Suspicion

"Tucker Campbell, 45 years old, grew up in Bello City, worked at Wolfpack Design Company for ten years, has a wife and a child, but the child is from his wife and her ex-husband, and he doesn't want his own child."

"My social circle is very narrow, basically just colleagues and some old classmates. People's evaluation of me is basically, well, a nice guy."

Extraordinary Commissioner Kanis quickly flipped through the pages of the report, sorting out the key points.

"The main connection between Campbell and the infected Donnie is that early this morning at 7:45 a.m., Donnie knocked over Campbell's coffee when he passed by the entrance of the cafe, and then the two of them got into a fight. This can be testified by many people and surveillance."

"In theory, he is not a suspect. He is just an ordinary middle-aged man with his own family and job, full of weaknesses. It stands to reason that such a person would actively avoid all risks at this age."

"It's a pity that Chaofan doesn't talk about theory, and judging from the time, he is indeed the most suspicious."

"So after further questioning, we got the information that he had received threatening phone calls from the Black Snake Society."

"The source of the call happened to be one of the deceased members of the Black Snake Gang, and Donnie's best buddy in the gang."

Ito Makoto doesn't have any systematic experience in solving cases, but if you really want to say it, he does have a lot of experience in being pursued, which is somewhat useful.

Because he hated cameras the most, he immediately collected surveillance videos of the areas where the suspects appeared and looked for clues from them.

"Donny plans to team up with his friends to blackmail Campbell. Is this your guess?" Ito added his conclusion.

"From the information on the surface, this is likely the biggest." Canis nodded. He was originally responsible for connecting with Pastor Brand, but because the situation on Bello's side was obviously more serious, the president arranged for him to follow Ito and ordered him to do his best to meet the other party's needs.

"Then he provoked the wrong person. Unexpectedly, Campbell was a member of the voodoo cult. In anger or by accident, he inhaled the resurrection powder and was infected?" Ito Makoto followed this chain of logic, but such inference was completely unconvincing, at least not even himself.

If this was Campbell's revenge out of anger, then it would be too obvious. If the Voodoo Cult were really that kind of people, they wouldn't be so unclear about their purpose until now.

Unless the two happened to destroy the bottle of resurrection powder during the fight, and that amount was just enough to infect only Donnie, and Campbell happened to not know that the resurrection powder had leaked, so he did not deal with the aftermath.

This doesn't sound credible.

"Well, after testing, none of them had the powder or containers of the resurrected corpse on them." Carlos reminded politely.

Ito Makoto didn't say much, but just continued watching the surveillance video.

But unfortunately, he did not find any useful information from the surveillance. It was rush hour, and there were many people coming and going. There were also many people waiting for the bus at the nearby station. If everyone who looked at Campbell was considered a suspect, there would be at least hundreds of them.

"Speaking of which, there is still a suspicious point. That is, Donny has a sum of money on him. I don't know where he got it from, but at least it has nothing to do with these people now." Kanis didn't think he could find out anything from here, but if he gave Ito a suitable reason to arrange some things, it would at least give the other party something to work hard for.

"Well, find some people to investigate this aspect. We also need to dig deeper into the past and relatives of several suspects. You should be good at these things, and I will do what I am good at." Ito gave up hope of getting answers from official investigation channels, and he planned to investigate on his own.

The timing of this infection was too coincidental, occurring less than an hour before he arrived.

It's like... demonstrating to him?
Ito closed his eyes and tried his best to put himself in the other person's shoes.

The opponent's cards include revenant powder, special revenants, and a pretty good hidden ability.

In this situation, if Ito had such ability, he would definitely be able to throw the entire Rio into chaos and leave all the extraordinary people behind to eat dust.

But the other party did not do so, and even deliberately left a loophole.

There are only two reasons.

There is not enough powder and the benefits are not matched.

What exactly are the interests of voodoo? Is it just to mess up Rio, but within a controllable range, and then reap the benefits?
This lack of knowledge of the other party's purpose makes people feel very restricted.

He still likes to see the real thing.

He took the information of the three main suspects with him and prepared to investigate secretly on his own.

Since the other party deliberately left clues about Belo City and deliberately created such an infected person, it was clearly an invitation for him to join the investigation.

I hope that when we meet again, he will still be so confident.

After all, he hadn't used Hellfire for a long time.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you. Thank you so much."

Campbell's wife Dilma hung up the phone with a worried look on her face.

Just now, she learned from her husband's colleague that Campbell was taken away by the police in the company.

She wanted to do something, but she didn't know how to deal with it. She was afraid that it would affect her husband and make things worse.

"Dilma, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong at home?" In the clothing store in the mall, the manager saw the anxiety written on Dilma's face and asked with concern.

"Yes, something happened suddenly." Dilma pursed her lips and nodded.

"Then you go back first and take care of it. If you can't come tomorrow, remember to send me a message in advance." The manager waved his hand and was quite easy to talk to.

Dilma did not refuse, as this was indeed a big deal for her family, so she expressed her gratitude and left in a hurry.

When she got home, she decided to call her husband first to see if the call could get through.

The phone rang but no one answered.

After making several phone calls with the same result, she gave up, changed her clothes, and went to the nearest police station.

"Well, your husband is currently suspected of a homicide. Ma'am, please calm down. We will page you when we need you. Now that he is a suspect, he needs to cooperate with our investigation. It is not convenient to disclose the details of the case for the time being. You have to understand this."

The police did not allow the two to meet, but persuaded Dilma to leave.

Of course, her every move had been monitored by someone in the hope of finding some suspicious clues.

Unable to see her husband, Dilma had no choice but to leave the police station and returned home in a daze.

What she didn't know was that Fei Du was taking Xavier, who had just woken up, hiding in the crowd, shopping in the shops on the street, and watching all this happen.

Dilma was Xavier's aunt who had once served as his guardian.

After Xavier's uncle died, she remarried Campbell, but continued to support Xavier until he came of age.

So Xavier was always grateful to her.

Not to mention that he has a particularly good relationship with his cousin.

"Now it seems that your aunt's family has become a pawn of voodoo." The two found a barbecue fast food restaurant and chatted while eating inside.

Xavier clenched and unclenched his fists under the table several times, completely losing his appetite.

"According to the clues I just investigated, this morning, just when Ito Chaofan came, an infection occurred in a gang. Your aunt's husband was listed as a suspect because he had a dispute with the infected person."

"If I'm right, this is just the appetizer. Next, there will definitely be a bigger infection. By then, Ito Makoto's grand appearance just now will be considered as a grand appearance. He pacified the zombies by himself and gained a wave of goodwill. Tsk tsk, how do you say hero in Japanese? えいゆう!"

Xavier finally couldn't help it and looked up suddenly: "Master, is there any way to stop him and expose his true face?"

Under Fei Du's constant brainwashing, he is now 100% or even 90% convinced that Ito Makoto is in cahoots with the Voodoo Cult.

Otherwise, why did things develop exactly as Master said, without any difference?
"Of course there is a way. In the face of pure power, all conspiracies will be shattered."

Fei Du finished the barbecue in front of him, wiped his mouth, and his face became serious: "But are you sure you are ready? After taking this step, not everyone will understand you. Maybe in the eyes of some people, you are the one who colluded with Voodoo, and the villain who was sent to slander and hurt their heroes."

"Perhaps for a long time, you will not be able to get redress, and you will become a rat in the gutter, and everyone will want to kill you."

"Even the loved ones you want to protect will draw a line between you and hate you to the core."

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

"And once you fail completely, these stigmas will accompany you to hell, and you will be despised by everyone after you die."

Xavier did not hesitate: "I have always been prepared. If this is the price of saving the country, I am willing to be a hero that no one understands."

"I hope you are really prepared." Fei Du gave a meaningful smile.

Xavier felt that the future of the entire country rested on his shoulders, which would have been absolutely overwhelming for a college student.

But now, there is a constant flow of strength in his body, helping him to resist this pressure.

He believes in the old saying that with great power comes great responsibility.

"Now, you have laid a good foundation. Tomorrow, I will take you to stimulate your abilities and see how well you absorb and digest those potions. They are my unique and precious stocks."

It is true that it is non-toxic. Currently, the raw materials of medicines with extraordinary effects are generally related to the extraordinary.

Most of the precious materials he had accumulated like a hamster were used on Xavier.

But for such a perfect experimental subject, it's all worth it.

It won't be long before Xavier's blood becomes a new extraordinary raw material, or even the cornerstone of the Transmigration Potion 1.0 that he has always dreamed of.

Whenever he thought of this, he had to lower his eyes slightly to prevent his burning gaze from being exposed to Xavier.

"Your aunt's family should just happen to be involved in this, it shouldn't be a big deal. Of course, just in case, I will help you find a way to keep an eye on them. If they encounter any accidents, I can also notify you to save them when necessary."

"Thank you, thank you, Master." Xavier said gratefully.

"Improve your strength. I also want to see how powerful a true Eagle Warrior is. This is also the miracle that an adventurer like me has always hoped to see."

Fei Du comforted softly.

The next day.

Feidu took Xavier to a nearby abandoned industrial area.

This country once had a good industrial base, but unfortunately it weakened itself, and a large number of local manufacturing industries could no longer survive. Some were acquired, some went bankrupt, leaving behind a lot of industrial ruins that would likely cost money to demolish.

Some places are occupied by gangs or homeless people, but some are too far away from the urban area and only gangs go there for their shady transactions.

The problem is that the gangs in Rio are becoming more and more daring. There is no need to waste time traveling to a remote place to trade, where they might be ambushed.

As a result, these industrial ruins, like steel corpses, slowly become covered with rust, quietly waiting for their fate of being transformed or sinking into oblivion.

In the empty factory, Xavier followed Feidu's command and stimulated his own strength.

"In terms of strength, it is about 2.5 times stronger than the previous data, basically comparable to the extraordinary who swallowed the Holy Son Pill to gain strength enhancement, but lacks the use of strength and actual combat experience."

"The body is very strong. It looks like some benign mutation has occurred."

"If you have the ability."

Fei Du raised his head, looked at Xavier who was flying crookedly in the air above the factory, and nodded slightly.

"Pure flying ability, like one of the abilities sealed by Gabriel's magic wand. Sure enough, using the stardust produced by the magic wand is also useful."

"In addition, he can transform into a giant wolf and pluck out his hair to become a little wolf. Interesting, one man can form an army, Monkey King?"

Fei Du muttered to himself.

With the strength Xavier has shown now, I'm afraid he would be able to fight back and forth with Ito Makoto even if he faced Ito directly.

You can also take advantage of the Paladin not coming over, and if you can't defeat him, you can use flying to escape.

But he quickly dismissed the idea.

Others don’t know Ito’s strength, but as a member of the Soul Assembly, he must have a shared database with the ratings given by Augustus.

Currently the highest level is level six, which are Ye Jie, Augustus, the Chosen One and the Lizard Monster.

But there are not many people at level five, and Ito Seigo is one of them.

Once he lets go completely, there is very little that can directly counter his explosive power.

From Feidu's perspective, Xavier's abilities seem good now, but he has no experience in using them. He can be suppressed by an experienced level 4 and still needs to grow.

During this period of time, he will first consolidate his abilities, and when the time is right, he will sacrifice his few relatives for a second stimulation. Only in this way can he be considered the ultimate form of a perfect experimental subject.

"Teacher, is this the power of an eagle?" Xavier landed on the ground and said excitedly.

"That's right. From this moment on, you are the last Eagle Warrior in the world."

Fei Du smiled, as if he was happy for him.
