"I want a lollipop too!" Daigo shouted, raising his hand.

"I only give them to children." It ignored Daigo and simply handed out lollipops from the car to the children who gathered around.

"Ugh, how annoying! They only give these to kids!" Daigo took off the pumpkin headgear and turned back with a disappointed look on his face.

"Daigo and Rena, you're here too." Shen Yun walked over and greeted Daigo and Rena.

"Doctor, you're so slow!" Mayumi complained.

"Doctor, why are you dressed like that?" Daigo looked at Shen Yun's cute bear costume and laughed.

Lina reached out and touched the fluffy bear headgear, laughing, "So cute!"

"It's Halloween, so of course we should dress up to fit the atmosphere."

As Shen Yun spoke, he reached out and took off the hood, then placed it in Lina's hand.

"Shen Yun!" Karen ran to Shen Yun's side, pointed to the empty candy stand, and whispered in his ear:

"There's something wrong with that old lady handing out candy; I can't see it."

From her perspective, in front of the candy-filled cart, there were only many children gathered around.

She couldn't see the old woman they were talking about at all.

To be precise, she never saw the old woman the children were talking about from the very beginning.

The scene that appeared before her eyes was very eerie.

The unattended shopping cart has lollipops that automatically float up and land in the hands of nearby children.

This scene looks incredibly eerie no matter how you look at it.

Although she couldn't see the old woman the children were talking about, she could hear her voice.

Moreover, judging from the children's behavior, it doesn't seem fake.

Karen understood after only a brief analysis.

Although she behaves very much like a human, she is not human in the end.

Her visual system is different from human vision.

The human eye can deceive the human brain, but hers cannot.

In other words, this old woman has a big problem!

I just don't know if it's an alien or a monster.

Therefore, when Karen saw Shen Yun arrive, she immediately reported the news to him.

"You can't see it?" Shen Yun was taken aback for a moment, but he quickly realized that Karen was not human. She was just an artificial intelligence with self-awareness, and her body was a humanoid puppet that he had created himself.

Hmm, could it be that Kallen usually acts too much like a human, so he subconsciously overlooked this?

"That's right. If I can't see it, then the camera shouldn't be able to capture its presence either." Karen nodded.

"I understand." Shen Yun nodded, then turned to look at Mayumi, Rena, and Daigo, and asked:

Did you bring a PDI (Pre-Delivery Inspection) kit?

"I brought it, why?" Daigo took out his PDI.

"Let me borrow it for a moment." Shen Yun took Daigo's PDI, pointed the camera at the witch in the distance, and took a picture of the witch who was scattering lollipops.

Shen Yun glanced at the photos that had been taken.

Just as Karen had said!

The witch is not in the photo at all.

"Huh? This photo..." Lina leaned closer, and after seeing the photo on PDI, she looked up in disbelief at the candy stand not far away.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Mayumi excitedly came over.

Upon seeing the photo on PDI, Mayumi's smile froze instantly.

She looked up at the ugly witch and felt a chill run down her spine.

Is this old woman a human or a ghost?!

Seeing their reactions, Daigo was also incredibly curious.

Shen Yun returned the PDI to Daigo, and Daigo saw the photos on the PDI after receiving it.

The moment he saw the photo, the smile on his face vanished, replaced by a serious and solemn expression.

If there's something wrong with this witch, then wouldn't there be something wrong with the lollipops she sends out?

The witch seemed to sense something, abruptly turning to look at Shen Yun and the others. Her eyes, hidden beneath her mask, flickered, and she pushed aside the surrounding children: "Alright! That's enough for today! Make way!"

The witch pushed the cart with incredible agility, her movements belying that of an elderly woman.

Seeing the witch escape, Daigo immediately gave chase.

"Daigo, wait!" Seeing this, Lina also planned to chase after them.

However, she was stopped by Shen Yun before she could run two steps.

"Team Leader Lina, contact Captain Megumi immediately and have her notify Chief Yoshioka so that the police department can be mobilized to identify and protect the children who ate the lollipops distributed by this witch."

"I understand." Lina nodded. Although she was a little worried about Daigo, she knew the importance and urgency of the matter. She immediately took out her PDI and contacted the base.

Soon, Lina reported everything that had happened to Megumi.

"This actually happened." Megumi's expression was very serious. She immediately contacted the police chief, Yoshioka, and briefly recounted what had happened.

"Is that so? I understand." Yoshioka hung up the call from Megumi with a serious expression, then dialed another number and ordered, "Nagamo, immediately notify the entire TPC police department to assemble!"

At Yoshioka's command, the TPC Police Department immediately sprang into action.

In addition to the police department, police officers in various locations were also notified and required to cooperate with the police department's operations.

……

Command Room.

Megumi looked at Lina and asked, "Lina, do you remember what that witch looked like?"

"I remember!" Lina nodded.

"Then please draw a picture of what that witch looks like."

"clear!"

"Captain!" Nori suddenly looked up and reported to Kijima Megumi, "I pulled up the Halloween data up to last year and found that every year on Halloween, a considerable number of children go missing in many places around the world."

"Every year?" Upon hearing this, Megumi crossed her arms and pondered, "So, this witch has existed for a very long time?"

"Recorded cases of missing children on Halloween date back to the 17th century, but records of this witch can be traced back to the Middle Ages." Ye Rui pulled up the relevant records and projected them onto the main screen in the command room.

This is a record from the witch trials period, detailing a witch who only appeared on Halloween night.

She would give children delicious food for free, then use the magic potions in the food to control those children who couldn't resist the temptation, and lead them into a giant pumpkin to be eaten.

Because of the large number of missing children, these people who lost their children developed an unprecedented and intense hatred for witches.

This event became the cause of the witch hunts in Europe.

Looking at the document records on the main screen, Megumi Kijima fell silent.

It's hard to imagine how many children have been taken away by this witch over the past few hundred years.

As for what happened to these children...

"Now that we've discovered this witch's plot, we absolutely cannot let her take away another child! We cannot let this witch continue to steal our future!" Megumi Kisaki stood up and said in a deep voice.

As a mother, she deeply abhorred the witch's behavior.
