Knight Asylum

what is this?

This is not the job he needs to do.

Ah, right...

Memories started to come flooding back. It was a few days ago. He was cleaning and someone greeted him. Then he...

just died.

Yes, why would he forget such an important thing? In order to prevent anyone from finding out that he was dead, he disposed of his body with his own hands.

Suzuki Shota slowly turned his head to look at his colleagues, and the corners of his mouth slowly cracked into a strange smile.

There is no doubt that he is a Zerg.

Suzuki Shota turned around, picked up the chair in his hand and smashed it towards the host in front of him.

Unexpectedly, Suzuki Shota would suddenly attack. The captain of the recovery team was startled and immediately waved his hand. He immediately pulled the trigger after being on guard against the recovery team. In an instant, countless white papers flew up. During this time, the red light spots spread and turned into charred black. A bullet shot out, and the white paper was instantly torn to pieces. In the hail of bullets, Suzuki Shota's body glowed with a green light, and in a blink of an eye he transformed into a larvae-shaped alien insect.

"boom--"

Under the merciless shooting of the recovery team, Suzuki Shota was shot and exploded in the blink of an eye, leaving only green flames on the ground. The captain of the recovery team immediately stepped forward, but the host had been destroyed by Suzuki Shota.

The captain of the reception team had an extremely grim expression on his face and pressed the intercom on his chest.

"Report, the target has been eliminated, but the other party has completed the information transmission. The Zerg have stolen some intelligence from Selvi Turiane."

After reporting the situation, the captain of the containment team glanced at the chaotic scene and sighed deeply. He turned his head to look at the other operators who looked uneasy. After hesitating for a moment, his shoulders drooped slightly. "It's all right now, but in order to prevent any accidents, please come with us for a safety check."

No one raised any objections. They were also afraid that they had actually been replaced by the alien insects, but they had not discovered it yet.

In the Sylvie Tullia command tower, U sat at the top with his fingers crossed. After listening to the report, he let out a long breath, "What do you think the Zerg want?"

All the combat staff present fell silent.

It’s not that they can’t think of the answer, but that countless answers pop up in their minds in an instant and they don’t know which one to choose.

The Zerg, strange creatures brought to Earth by a meteorite, are able to perfectly replicate humans once they come face to face.

Sylvi Turiane has so much that the zerg would love to steal.

"Whatever you think of, the Zerg will never get it," U narrowed his eyes slightly, "All the objects in storage are strictly kept, and even the information needs to be authenticated by the control tower before it can be accessed."

"But the problem is that they may have already accessed all the information they want."

A staff officer spoke up and everyone fell silent.

The Zerg invasion that occupied Selvi Turria's brain for more than twenty-four hours was definitely the biggest crisis Selvi Turria had ever encountered. No one could be sure what the Zerg visited and investigated in those twenty-four hours, but those twenty-four hours were enough for the Zerg to dig out most of Selvi Turria's secrets.

"But they did not evacuate from Selvi Thuria. They still left some Zerg lurking inside Selvi Thuria. Could it be that they think they can steal the containment? Impossible. They still have this bit of intelligence."

U raised his finger.

"This time, the Zerg hid in the three-wire wiring room, which has no access to the core of Selvi Tulia. It is indeed a good shelter for waiting for an opportunity, but this Zerg transmitted information at the cost of exposing itself... What did this Zerg transmit? Can you find out?"

"The host has been damaged. It will take some time to repair it," a communicator looked up and replied.

"What information has Suzuki Shouta retrieved recently?" U narrowed his eyes.

"Please wait a moment. I found out! In the past few days, Suzuki Shouta has accessed the recent capital flows of several companies through the underlying server of Selvi Turia."

"Sure enough, it's for this," U pinched the bridge of his nose.

As a human rescue organization, Sylvi Tullia controls the largest intelligence network in the entire [S·L]. As long as Sylvi Tullia is willing, even a mosquito can be located. From the current situation, the Zerg has determined what they want through the command tower and has begun to use Sylvi Tullia's intelligence network to search and track.

"U look at this!"

Before U could sort out his thoughts, a report appeared in front of U under the operation of the correspondent. The content of the report was not very important. What was important was the photo published in it. In the eyes of others, it was just a badly taken and blurry photo of a monster changing from human form to monster form. [S·L] was full of monsters in human form, and monsters could be seen changing from human form to monster form at any time, but in their eyes it was completely different.

That's Red.

When Red transformed into Kuuga, he was discovered and photographed! Now the photo is in the hands of the newspaper!

The correspondent nervously asked, "We have made this report transparent, but, U, what should we do? That ORE newspaper often publishes reports against Selvi Turia."

U held his chin in his hand, lost in thought.

The sponsors have probably already discovered this report, but they are not stupid enough to make trouble just because of this blurry photo. But this is still a step down, and it may be the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

The question now is, who took this photo and what was the intention.

First of all, we can rule out ORE newspaper. If the photo was taken by ORE, it would be impossible for it to be so blurry.

In the eyes of others, this photo is just a ridiculously bad and boring photo, but in the eyes of Serviera it is very deadly.

This is a warning.

If we investigate further, it will not just be a matter of a blurry photo.

"The one who would resort to such tactics at this time...Kitaoka Hideichi?" U narrowed his eyes and guessed the identity of the person who took the photo.

"With Red's insight, it's impossible that he didn't notice that someone was taking pictures around him. Moreover, his transformation movements were reversed. So that's what happened. Was it a photo taken through the mirror world?"

U exhaled softly, raised his fingers and tapped the corners of his eyes.

"There's no need to let Red know about this. This is our job."

Seeing that U had no intention of punishing Red, the communicator subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, nodded quickly, and sat back to continue the operation.

U leaned lightly on the backrest, supporting his chin with his left hand and tapping the armrest lightly with his right index finger.

Kitaoka Hideichi's behavior, which was no different from jumping in the face, was equivalent to verifying their guess. Kitaoka Hideichi was not only an insider, but might even be a participant, and had Professor Kagawa's research in his hands.

But if a drastic investigation is conducted on Hideichi Kitaoka, then all these photos will be leaked. It is useless for them to think that Red is a human being. What is important is what the vast majority of humans think. Even Orphino, who everyone has the opportunity to become, is still considered a weirdo rather than a branch of humanity. This shows the attitude of humans towards change.

The employees of the human rescue organization Serviera are weirdos. So are humans saving humans, or are the weirdos covering up a huge conspiracy?

Which one will humans believe?

There is only one conclusion.

Kitaoka Hideichi picked up the red wine in his hand, looked at his reflection in the glass, and raised the corner of his mouth.

“Human beings only believe in the images in the mirror.”

"Teacher, the click rate of ORE newspaper's report has not increased. It seems that Serviera has conducted a transparent investigation." Yura Goro, who has been paying attention to ORE newspaper, raised his head to report, hesitated for a moment, and complained weakly, "It may also be because the photo is too blurry and not very convincing."

"With Servier Turia's information monitoring capabilities, how could they not notice this report? They must have dealt with it," Kitaoka Hideichi put the red wine aside, stood up, straightened his collar, and shrugged at Yura Goro. "But they will definitely not be intimidated by a mere photo. They will definitely come to investigate me."

"What should we do then?" Yura Goro was a little worried.

After all, that was Servier Turia. Although his methods were extraordinary, they were definitely not someone they could handle.

"Don't worry about it. It's just a small provocation. Servius Turia has noticed the relationship between me and Professor Kagawa. They will investigate me sooner or later. That photo just makes them a little afraid. And Goro-chan--"

Kitaoka Hideichi raised his head back.

"Don't you think that being noticed by Selvi Turia can help me gain some respect in the eyes of the Brain Group? It would be terrible if I were to be abandoned by those monsters."

Yura Goro suddenly understood and said with admiration, "As expected of you, teacher."

"Speaking of which, Goro-chan, what are the plans for next? I remember we were going to have dinner with the Takamizawa couple at First, right?" Kitaoka Hideichi smiled confidently and stood in front of a full-length mirror to adjust his suit.

Yura Goro immediately bent down and picked up the tablet that he usually used to record Kitaoka Hideichi's schedule and operated it for a few times.

"Yes, there are still forty minutes until the agreed time."

"Forty minutes? Well, let's go now."

"OK--"

Yura Goro immediately nodded, packed up his things, pushed the door open, and drove the luxurious and simple Rolls-Royce that Hideichi Kitaoka had spent a lot of money to buy out of the garage. He got out of the car and opened the passenger door for Hideichi Kitaoka.

Kitaoka Hideichi pulled his collar and got in. He looked sideways through the rearview mirror to tidy up his hair and confirmed that there was nothing wrong. Then he sat up straight and said in a very relaxed tone, "Goro-chan, remember not to run around. It will be troublesome if the Yagami tribe spots you."

"Teacher, don't worry, I'm not going back anywhere," Yura Goro smiled.

"Hahaha - this is really reassuring."

Kitaoka Hideichi and Yura Goro were talking and laughing along the way. Although Yura Goro just nodded most of the time, the corners of his mouth were always raised. When they arrived at First, Yura Goro backed the car into First's special parking space under the waiter's instructions.

"You two are from table three, right? The lady has been waiting for a long time."

Kitaoka Hideichi was stunned for a moment, raised his hand and waved, signaling Yura Goro to follow, and under the guidance of the waiter, he entered First. At table number three, a dignified lady was sitting, staring intently at the flowers on the table that were not bright and even a little malnourished.

Following behind Kitaoka Shuichi, Yura Goro recalled some information about this noble lady.

Saori Takamizawa, wife of Itsurō Takamizawa of Takamizawa Group, started from scratch together with Itsurō Takamizawa. Although they have retired now, Itsurō Takamizawa and Saori Takamizawa will appear together on various important occasions. They can be said to be a model couple of entrepreneurs.

But today, Saori Takamizawa looked a little lonely.

"Ahem - Mrs. Takamizawa, may I ask, where is Mr. Takamizawa Itshiro?" Kitaoka Hideichi, who also noticed Takamizawa Saori's emotions, coughed lightly and asked tentatively.

Takamizawa Saori came back to her senses, stood up, bowed slightly, and smiled reluctantly, "Lawyer Kitaoka, I'm sorry, there was a problem at the company, Ichiro will go back to deal with it first."

"Ah, it's okay, it's okay," Kitaoka Hideichi suddenly realized, pressed Yura Goro's shoulder and sat down, raised his hand towards Takamizawa Saori, and waited until Takamizawa Saori took a seat before he took a seat himself.

Kitaoka Hideichi and Yura Goro picked up the menu at the same time and covered their faces with it. They seemed to be struggling over which set meal to order, but in fact they were communicating quickly with their eye contact. However, before Kitaoka Hideichi and Yura Goro could come to a conclusion, Takamizawa Saori suddenly stood up. Kitaoka Hideichi and Yura Goro, who thought they had been discovered gossiping with their eye contact, immediately became nervous.

"Excuse me, I need to go to the bathroom."

After saying that, Saori Takamizawa left table number three under the guidance of the waiter.

Kitaoka Hideichi finally breathed a sigh of relief and pulled at his collar, "Goro-chan, this is a bit troublesome."

"What's wrong, teacher?"

"I roughly know what they want to ask me for this time," Kitaoka Shuichi pinched his nose, "It's probably a labor arbitration. It seems that the rumors are true. Takamizawa Group's capital operation has a big problem."

"Eh... labor arbitration is very troublesome, teacher, you'd better refuse it," Yura Goro sat upright.

"Let's wait until Madam Gao Jian comes back."

In fact, Kitaoka Shuichi, who already had an idea in mind, picked up the menu and began to flip through the menu of the Michelin three-star restaurant known as NO1.

But this wait lasted for an hour.

Not only Kitaoka Hideichi, but even the waiters of First showed subtle looks, but they were all professional, and could be said to be the best waiters in the world. Without Kitaoka Hideichi's signal, one of them poured red wine for Kitaoka Hideichi, and another went to the bathroom.

Out of politeness, the waiter did not push the door open immediately but knocked on it.

"Ms. Takami? Ms. Takami, are you okay?"

After knocking for a long time, there was no response. The waiter hesitated for a moment, whispered "excuse me" and gently pushed open the door. The bathroom, which was specially customized in royal style, was quiet, without any sound of living people. The cosmetics, mobile phones and other items scattered in front of the sink were silently telling something.

The waiter's expression instantly twisted, and a pattern like that of stained glass in a church spread along his neck to his face, forming a fang-like pattern.

Chapter 122 What kind of human rescue organization are you?

The next day, a special call came to Servieri's front desk and was transferred all the way to the control tower.

As soon as the call was connected, the other party started cursing at me.

"What kind of human rescue organization are you? Someone is missing, did you know that? Send someone to handle it quickly! I've always paid taxes, okay?"

Generally speaking, this kind of call would never be received by the control tower, but this call came from the territory of the Tooth Ghost Clan. The strange man who feeds on human life energy called and asked the human rescue organization Selvi Turia to investigate the missing persons case in the territory of the Tooth Ghost Clan. Normally speaking, Selvi Turia would never accept it.

Because if humans enter the territory of the Yagui tribe, it is equivalent to automatically giving up their lives, but the Yagui tribe member who made this call is the chef and manager of the world-renowned Michelin three-star First.

Originally, U was planning to send other B-level or above employees to investigate, but after seeing Kitaoka Hideichi's name among the people involved in the case, he immediately changed his mind and sent Reid to investigate instead.

Red, who was worried about having no breakthrough, immediately headed for First when he heard that Hideichi Kitaoka was involved in a missing case. However, when he entered First, Red was blocked by a muscular man who was over two meters tall and looked like he was stuffed into a chef's uniform.

"You... have you been to First before, and with two high school girls?" The tough guy looked Red up and down with his chin in his hand, then glanced at Qiao, Mazel, and Sonoda Mari who followed behind Red, and said with some dissatisfaction, "Are you really an employee of Selvi Turia? Let me see your employee ID!"

"Eh... high school girls? Two of them?" Sonoda Mari stretched out her voice and said sarcastically, "How amazing..."

Red's mouth twitched fiercely, and he took out his ID from his pocket and handed it to the strong man in front of him. Although it was a temporary worker's ID, only Selvi Turia himself could identify the grade, so after looking at it for a while, the strong man returned the ID to Red, but the strong man was still a little dissatisfied.

"I'm telling you, this concerns the life and death of a lady, don't treat it in a joking way."

Although he felt a little awkward being told this by the Tooth Ghost Tribe that feeds on humans, Red immediately became serious and nodded vigorously, "Don't worry, we will handle this seriously."

Sonoda Mari raised her elbow and bumped Qiao's arm, lowering her voice, "Who is this guy? He's so arrogant."

Qiao glanced at Sonoda Mari, "First's chef and store manager, Flanders XIII, is said to have a high status in the Yagui tribe and can directly meet with the king of the Yagui tribe."

"Fland? Ah... Could he be the descendant of Fland III? Is that historical figure actually from the Yagui clan?!"

Mari Sonoda subconsciously screamed, and although she covered her mouth immediately, all the waiters around her turned their heads to look at her. The strange eyes made Mari Sonoda's back numb, and she subconsciously wanted to hide behind Reid, but was grabbed by Qiao who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, so she could only face those strange eyes.

Sonoda Mari swallowed hard, smiled wryly, raised her hand and waved to the waiters.

Perhaps because he was used to such surprises, Flanders XIII was not angry at Sonoda Mari's exclamation. Instead, he turned around and raised his head, motioning Red to follow.

Because of the missing persons, First was closed today and there were few customers in the store. Of course, Selvi Tullia did not order First to suspend business for investigation. If he had to make a fuss and suspend the business of a world-renowned Michelin three-star restaurant because of a missing person, Selvi Tullia might as well move directly into the territory of the Tooth Ghost Clan.

It was First that took the initiative to suspend operations, stop all services, and call Selvi Turia to investigate.
