"I think I should just stay in the base for the next ten days or so and then come out."

The next moment, the communicator rang.

Yu Hui answered the call; on the other end was the new city where people were going to the countryside to find Obik.

He said listlessly, "Team member Yu Hui, based on my observation, this is just a peaceful little village, and there are no monsters."

Horii leaned closer: "I've told him so many times that monsters are afraid of light, so Obik won't come out during the day, but he just won't believe me."

Yu Hui exclaimed in surprise, "Horiei, didn't you and Daigo go to investigate the fog that caused the plants to wither? What are you doing here?"

Daigo leaned closer to the screen: "That highway that produces acid fumes is right next to this village."

So the group of people ended up together by chance.

Yu Hui asked, "So, how's the survey going?"

Da Gu Dao: "We collected samples of the withered plants and planned to send them for testing, but they're on the way..."

Horii's veins bulged: "We ran into some nasty kids on the road who threw firecrackers at us and even made me fall into a puddle."

So he first went to the village to take a bath.

At this moment, Lina also came over: "However, we have made another discovery."

She told everyone that not long ago, a meteorite fell from the sky into the mountains near the village.

At the time, everyone was busy dealing with Abbas, Muzhenxingren and the Crow People, so they neglected to investigate this place.

Real estate developers, seeing that the Victory Team hadn't arrived, assumed the meteorite was safe and decided to use the meteorite's supposed health benefits as a gimmick to build a retirement center.

Xin Cheng said, "However, this project is currently facing some resistance. Many workers are afraid of the legendary monster 'Obik' and dare not continue construction."

Yu Hui's eyes narrowed: "Wait, Xincheng, take your head away."

Shinjo was shocked: "What! How can you just take away my handsome face like that? If anyone's going to take it away, it should be Horii's."

Upon hearing this, Horii almost got into a fight with Shinjo.

Yu Hui quickly said, "I have no problem with your face, I want to see the person behind you!"

After the explanation, Yu Hui was finally able to see the hunched figure clearly.

She is the old lady who adopted Redell in "The Battle of Red and Blue"!

"Shouldn't she live in the city? What's she doing here..."

Although puzzled, Yu Hui still asked Ryosuke to drive him there.

The two put away the monster and drove away.

"It stinks here."

As they passed the highway near the village, Yu Hui couldn't help but frown.

"It sounds like car exhaust... It must be a problem with the tunnel's exhaust system."

Ryosuke said, not taking it seriously, and simply stepped on the gas and sped away.

When they arrived, it was already 4:30 pm.

Shinjo, Lina, and Deputy Commander Zongfang are still searching for Obik's whereabouts outside.

Meanwhile, Daigo and Horii were conducting tests at a research institute in town.

The old woman was also invited here.

“My son died young, and after that strange-looking child left, I felt it was meaningless to live alone.”

“I sold my house and moved back here. At least here there are some elderly people to chat with.”

Grandma, you've voluntarily moved into a nursing home.

The "strange-looking child" he mentioned was clearly Redell.

Yu Hui thought for a moment and said, "I am his comrade-in-arms. He asked me to come and see how you are doing and whether you need any help."

The old woman exclaimed with delight, "You're that child's friend! That's wonderful! Tell me quickly, where did he go?"

Where did you go...?

I went there, to a very far place...

Yu Hui, of course, couldn't reveal the cruel truth; he tried his best to appear calm.

"He actually came to stop the aliens 'Abobbas,' and after Abobbas was destroyed, he returned to his own planet."

The old woman's kind and gentle smile vanished, and her cloudy old eyes stared intently at Yu Hui.

Yu Hui felt a little flustered under their gaze.

After a moment, the old woman nodded: "Oh, you're going back? I understand."

Chapter 237 [Flying Bird] and [Good]

Meanwhile, Ogorii was coordinating with the research institute staff.

"These are plants that have dried up and died due to the heavy fog."

The staff brought over a plate of something that looked like it grew in the Black Forest.

Horii said, "I guessed right, it really did die from acidity."

Just then, the receptionist poked her head out and said, "Um, these kids say they saw a monster."

Upon hearing this, Daigo and Shinjo immediately stood up.

Upon closer inspection, I was pleasantly surprised.

There were four children in total. The one in the middle was about twelve or thirteen years old, the two on the left and right were about nine years old, and the girl in front was about six years old.

These were the four mischievous kids who had teased Horii before.

Horii's eyes widened immediately, while Daigo asked gently:

"You said you saw a monster, didn't you?"

The oldest child standing in the very center must be:

"We only saw white smoke, but we also heard the roar of a monster."

Horii: "The white smoke, it's acidic smoke, isn't it..."

Just then, a policeman suddenly ran over, saluted, and said:

"You two must be the Victory team members, thank you for your hard work."

In the eyes of the world, the victorious team members have a very high status.

Oko and Horii returned the favor.

The police officer continued, "So, where is the monster?"

Daigo pointed to the four children: "These children have intelligence."

"Huh?" The police officer looked closer and was immediately shocked:

"So it was these kids! They're the notorious troublemakers around here."

"Especially this Yuya, he can come up with all sorts of pranks."

The police were also helpless, as these children either came from single-parent families or their parents were too busy with work to take care of them.

So he couldn't find a place to file a complaint.

Especially Yuya, although he is a troublemaker, you can't hate him when you think about how his parents died.

However, there's a limit to mischief, the police officer asked the three children sternly:

"I'm asking you, are you lying? You should know that the Victory team members are very busy."

"If you're lying about the monsters, I'll never forgive you."

Yu also said that he really heard it, and the little girl also said that her brother wouldn't lie.

Even so, the police still couldn't completely trust them.

This is similar to the story of "The Boy Who Cried Wolf".

Everyone has a limit to the amount of trust they can have; don't deplete the trust others have in you.

At this moment, Yu Hui slowly came up: "Well, I doubt they would dare to lie about such an important matter."

The police officer asked doubtfully, "You trust them?"

Yu Hui said, "I trust my own judgment."

After saying that, he called out, "Horie, let's go to the scene and take a look."

"Daigo, you stay here with Rena and the others and continue searching for Obik."

He intentionally tried to bring Daigo and Rena together, creating opportunities for them to spend time alone together.

After a while, having absorbed Reiblood's power, he will become even stronger, able to withstand even Camilla's madness.

Before setting off, Yu Hui pulled the police aside again.

He glanced at the other person's employee badge:

"Um... Mr. Kagami, right? I have something I'd like to ask you for help with."

"Don't be too nervous, it won't put you through any danger... See that old lady? She's an elder of one of my friends."

"I hope you can take good care of her and make sure she's not bullied. If she has any financial difficulties, please let me know as soon as possible."

"As long as you do this well, the organization will recognize your work results."

The police were overjoyed upon hearing this.

Is the Victory team commander going to promote me?

He immediately patted his chest and assured Yu Hui that he would not let him down.

Yu Hui is not making empty promises.

Promoting a low-ranking police officer is just a matter of a word for him.
