Infinity, progress from Arasaka

"Hinashi!" The mother also arrived. She protected her daughter behind her without hesitation, like a hen protecting her calves. She looked at the two people carrying boxes approaching from the front with a desperate and struggling look.

"What a nice rain."

The hunched-over, white-haired, middle-aged man with bulging eyes and bulging eyeballs grinned, "But if it continues to rain this hard, I'll be very troubled. Because then I won't be able to hear your cries."

At the back of Kuanxiang, two more figures with guns appeared and blocked the way.

"Can you spare us a moment?" The middle-aged man with the morbidly uneven eyes looked up, "Ms. Dikou."

"Run...leave here and don't look back, Hinami."

As she spoke calmly, her eyes suddenly turned red, revealing her eyes, and then, with a swish, four off-white petal-shaped horns suddenly opened up from her shoulder blades, forming a super-large moth-wing-shaped horn.

"Hehe, the love between a mother and her son and these man-eating monsters? How disgusting!"

Click! The sound of the Quinque box opening up, just as the tall man with a neat crew cut rushed forward with the giant cylindrical mallet-shaped Quinque, rustling—

A voice came from the headset.

"Mado-sama, Amon-sama, stand back! We have detected several S-rank dangerous ghouls moving around you!"

Answer, boom——

The noisy and chaotic Yu He released the roar and explosion of crystal edges.

There was the sound of walls collapsing and rubble falling to the ground.

A broad and sturdy figure flew out and slammed through the door of the shop. It was rough, large, and sharp, and shaped like sawgrass. Its blades rolled up and down, slamming the ground, and with them, there was an extremely ferocious sound.

"Hiss...blood, hiss, kill you! Kill you! I'm going to kill you!"

The tall man with the Quinque hammer who was rushing forward has retreated to the side of the hunched middle-aged man, his eyes wide open.

"'Gecko' Jason?!"

Chapter 080 Vera Eliminates the Hazard

a few minutes ago.

District 20 downtown.

The drizzle is like silk, falling gently.

People hurriedly crossed the street in the rain, and when they noticed a group of special pedestrians carrying silver boxes and wearing white dove brooches on the collars of their white coats, they all made way for them spontaneously, and their pace became even more hurried.

Holding an umbrella, Vera led Mado Akira and a team of CCG investigators to stroll through this peaceful and quiet neighborhood with a clear goal.

Gazing at the quiet and peaceful street, "Xiao, do you think they welcome us more or are they more afraid and annoyed with us?" She turned her head with interest.

“Maybe it’s because of the nature of our work.”

After a pause, Mado Akira said seriously.

"...Where the white pigeons appear means ghouls are preying on them, which means death and misfortune. No one wants misfortune to happen to them."

Following behind Vera, she put down her PDA and did not directly answer the question. Instead, she observed the people walking away thoughtfully: students leaving class, office workers getting off work, loving couples, and families traveling...

This everyday atmosphere made Mado Akira vaguely think of the good old days when his mother was still alive and his father hadn't gone half crazy.

Compared to the rampant "co-ghouls" in District 14, the sadistic ghoul organization "White Suit" in District 13, the frequent deaths of investigators in District 12, and the ghouls in District 11 attacking humans in groups...

District 20 is so peaceful and tranquil.

"I have to admit it. The angel of death is also one of the colors attached to the investigator." Vera was not interested in delving into this issue. She just said it casually. She was not a Tokyo police officer. Her duty was only to eliminate ghouls.

"District 20 is a famous and stable district. But is District 20 really that stable?"

She changed the subject, an inexplicable smile on her face, "It has remained stable for more than ten years. It was formed naturally. Do you believe it?"

"What do you mean..."

"literal meaning."

The crowd gradually thinned out due to the appearance of the CCG investigators. Vera continued walking forward on the street where some shops had hung up signs for rest breaks. As she spoke, she raised her head slightly, estimating the distance between her and the search team led by Mado Wuxu. All the while, she kept glancing around out of the corner of her eyes.

The feeling of being watched is getting stronger and stronger, and getting closer and closer.

"After all, Tokyo doesn't have walls, only 'ghouls'. Do you believe that ghouls, who contribute nothing to society, eat their own kind at will, are crazy, extremely mentally unstable, and worse than livestock, can really endure this? Not all ghouls have self-control..."

As she spoke, Vera stopped and looked to the other side of the street.

"There is only one answer, the ghoul organization. You say so, the scum in the gutter..."

Before he finished speaking, figures wearing white suits or dark red robes appeared in groups of two or three behind an artistic three-dimensional billboard on the third floor of a shop.

"alert!"

The sound of the Quinque box opening, Mado Akira swinging a Quinque that looked like a chain sword or a long whip, and the senior investigator holding a huge long-handled straight-blade machete Quinque also stood beside Vera.

Other investigators holding different Quinques also shouted repeatedly, signaling passers-by who were still on the nearby streets to leave.

However, the uninvited guest was faster.

Boom! With the roar of Yuhe releasing the RC cell crystal, there was a loud noise, and the aluminum and painted synthetic plastic of the three-dimensional billboard broke with a "snap".

A broad white shadow shot out.

“Hoohoo, you…hiss, you smell so good——! You will definitely be able to bear my…”

He had a pair of bloodshot red eyes with widely spaced pupils, black sclera, a flat and wide nose and face, and a crazy tone that sounded as if he was drooling and wet. He stretched out his index and middle fingers with metal gloves on them and ran straight towards Vera.

"Special Officer Russell!"

The Senior Investigator waved the Quinque to block the Yuhe Crystal Edge. He looked at Vera who seemed to be still motionless and hadn't even opened the Quinque box, and exclaimed.

But, s-

The sound of hard metal colliding rang out, causing the senior investigator to subconsciously breathe a sigh of relief.

That's right, given Special Officer Russell's strength and combat record, how could he need to worry?

Then, there was a hysterical high-pitched roar, the crisp sound of bones breaking, and then a dull explosion, and the broad white shadow flew out at a speed that was no less than that of the rocket.

The tattered and twisted umbrella fell to the ground.

Vera's left glove was ruptured by the pink Quinque steel, and Gun III aimed at the broad white shadow that flew backwards and briefly stiffened in midair, bang! bang! bang!

Boom!

The Yuhe pointed cone warhead hit the target, and it was transformed into a Quinque. The Q Bullet material filled inside exploded and turned into a ball of sparks, which instantly wrapped up the figure in the loose white suit. Three consecutive shots and the mid-air explosions directly pushed him away and flew into a wide alley somewhere.

At this moment in the wide alley, "Mado-sama, Amon-sama, retreat! We have discovered several S-rank dangerous ghouls active around you!"

then.

A broad, charred shadow passed over the heads of two investigators, one tall and one hunched, who were holding Quinques.

"'Gecko' Jason?!"

Amon Kotaro held the black metal stick-shaped Quinque named 1/2 Dojima. His face suddenly changed and he instantly entered a state of high alert, "Mado-senpai!"

"Hahaha...hunting down villains like this is really fun! Amon, let's go!"

Hunched over, his sickly unequal eyes seemed to bulge out even more, and Mado Wuxu laughed wildly. The Quinque opened, revealing a white shell and red flesh, and a giant centipede-like chain blade whistled fiercely, sweeping towards Jason who had knocked down the door of a shop at an alarming speed.

"Ahhhh——!" Yamon Kotaro rushed towards Jason Pig with a big thick stick.

It was as if he had temporarily forgotten about the mother and daughter ghouls that had surrounded him earlier.

Everything happens in a flash of lightning.

Mrs. Dikou, who had unfolded her oversized moth-wing-shaped armor and was wrapping herself and her daughter up, preparing to leave her last words, was a little confused at the moment.

Jason? Not only are they unfamiliar with each other, but they have a grudge against each other. Her husband was forced to death by Jason...

"Mom...that's Daddy, that's Daddy's..."

Hinami stared at the giant chain blade Quinque that was dancing like a centipede in the hands of the sickly middle-aged investigator, and couldn't help crying.

Without time to think or comfort, Mrs. Fueguchi grabbed Hinami's hand.

"...Maybe daddy will never come back, but mommy will protect Hinami... Let's go, let's go..."

At this moment, there was a sound of cracking and gravel flying everywhere. Amon Kotaro, who had been rushing forward a moment ago, was thrown back and fell in front of the mother and daughter with blood on his forehead.

"This..." Dikou and her daughter were stunned.

...

"Dad! Get back!"

Along with a violent roar, an excited female voice suddenly squeezed into the wide alley.

The centipede-shaped giant chain blade Quinque continued to collide with the rough, sawgrass-like huge kagune rising from the smoke and dust. Mado Wuxu turned his head and asked, "Akatsuki?"

Looking at Mado Akira swinging the chain sword Quinque to behead a ghoul in a dark red robe outside the wide alley, his abnormally different-sized eyes seemed to become normal at this moment.

"Kill you! Eat you! I'm going to kill you and then eat you!"

Boom! The kagune slammed the ground, and the impact force generated by the continuously growing and out-of-control kagune made Madoka Wuxu stagger.

Quink could still bear it, but his mortal arms could not withstand the outpouring of power. He was dragged and thrown against the wall of the alley with a dull sound, and he almost suffocated on the spot.

"Xiao, what are you doing here!" Zhenhu Wuxu almost cursed loudly.

As he spoke, he staggered and struggled to support his body, grabbed the flute number one, and said, "Retreat, I will cover you, you and Yamen, this kind of villain is not yours..."

That posture was exactly the same as the one Mrs. Dikou used to protect her daughter not long ago.

Just as Zhenhu Wuxu was about to launch an attack on Jason, a horrifying roar came from outside the wide alley. A figure flew backwards and hit the door of the shop for the second time, falling in front of Jason along with the crumbling plaque.

"Yakumo, that... that foreign girl Hakuto... is so strong and bad... I'm afraid that Master Totoro's surveillance mission will not be completed. Why don't you just listen to her and retreat..."

The man with bright eyes, bright and exaggerated clothes, stubble, double chin, heavy makeup, and a sissy look covered his bleeding abdomen and cried out in pain shyly, while reaching out his hand to stroke Jason's chest muscles with his orchid fingers like a good long-haired man.

"Nick?"

The voice of his friend calmed down Jason, who had released his kagune to the maximum extent and whose mind was becoming increasingly crazy and unstable. But he only calmed down for a moment, because the Yuhe bullet instantly tore the shop's door plaque apart and swept over.

Along with it came a whistling sound that pushed the air apart, whoosh—

The pitch-black spear came whistling at Jason like a cluster of elongated black light with tremendous force, gouging a large hole in Jason's right shoulder, which was covered by his kagune. Blood and flesh splattered everywhere. With a clanging sound, it carried him flying and nailed him into the wall. With a click, cracks spread everywhere.

"Boss Gecko!"

A ghoul wearing a white suit and blond hair, with a hairstyle that looked like a combination of a slicked-back and a bob, screamed.

Then he started yelling and screaming, and I don't know if it was because his tear glands were very developed or what, but he kept crying. He howled and waved his Armored Sword, then he retracted his momentum, unfastened the buckle and threw the white box to the ground, and rushed forward with only the black and gold box in his hand.

"Noisy!"

Without any skill at all, Vera dodged the opponent's powerful attack by leaning sideways, then kicked him in the knee. She closed the five fingers of her left palm, the memory metal squirmed, and "Gun III" turned into a broad-bladed dagger. With a backhand blow, the sharp blade cut off his head.

S-level, Jiahe, I think its name is Naki... Never mind, it doesn’t matter.

Shhhhhhh—

Yu He. Sensing the threat, Vera took a few steps back, stretched out her left palm, and turned her five fingers into finger blades. As she flicked them, the scarlet crystal edges were bounced away, without a single feather touching her body.

Swing the red and white mixture on the Gun III.

Without even looking, Vera fired another shot and blew away the small ghoul who was trying to launch a sneak attack. She stomped through his temple under the mask with her high-heeled shoe and just stepped on the dead ghoul's head. She looked towards the second floor not far away.

A male ghoul with purple-blue curly hair, wearing a half-face mask, and activating double feathers like the wings of a blood angel.

"Woman! Tell me, where did the things in your box come from?!"

Staring with a pair of scarlet eyes, his voice seemed to tremble, and the murderous intent that was deep in his bones was not concealed at all. It was a boiling hatred and an uncontrollable desire for destruction.

"Special Officer Russell!"
