"So, this time we have to do it. It's like a race against time."

"You're right."

Kazuma held his head.

"It's just pitiful for those people."

Kirito sighed.

"In that case, let's take action. At least we can save a few more people."

Xiangzi tentatively expressed his opinion.

"Haha, everyone planned to set off right after the discussion from the beginning."

Kerry joked, and everyone prepared their equipment and headed outside.

Only Kirito thought for a moment and turned on the computer in the hotel.

It is not known whether this kind of thing will happen a second time. In this case, the organization has to be established first. Since there is no actual person in charge, let my daughter take over.

People with special abilities like Lihua can also be recruited. Ordinary personnel can be recruited from the marginalized people in society who are unemployed and have lost their credibility and cannot find other jobs. However, how to train these people is also a big problem.

Sending these people to collect intelligence across the country, and then they only need to go there and attack quickly when necessary, will undoubtedly be better than everyone discovering and investigating everything by themselves.

In terms of civil service, you may need to cooperate with some other force, and this requires someone who is trustworthy and can keep secrets.

While Kirito was thinking, a video tape of the amusement park was being secretly sent to the Tokugawa residence through a behind-the-scenes deal.

"Hehe! This old man wants to see it!"

"Huh?! Why is the last part gone? What? You said they went to the Ferris wheel for the final battle, and there were no cameras there?"

"Someone come! The master has fainted!"

Chapter 345: Interlude.

The Japanese top leaders seem to have great fear about the emergence of a monster organization called Parasyte.

Almost shortly after the official announcement, the Self-Defense Forces were transferred to Fukuyama City, the place where the first parasitic organization was discovered.

The mechanized armored team drove to the suburbs, and two battalions of infantry teams went directly into the city and began to investigate according to the instructions of the Metropolitan Police Department.

The efficiency of the government agencies was still very high. In the first half of the night, the police force was fully deployed and the roads in the city were closed. In the second half of the night, the army entered the city, causing the residents of Dongfushan City to think that there was an uprising outside and that they were going to punish the country.

Everyone's first reaction was, wasn't X thief executed in early July? The second reaction was, oh, there's another pro-American guy up there who wants to support distant Russia in preparing to attack its targets, so he really deserves to be executed.

Of course, the majority of Japanese people do not know at this time that from October to November, their Prime Minister's carefully selected cabinet will be involved in three major scandals in one month, and in a few months, his own son and Prime Minister's secretary will bring a bunch of relatives and friends to the Prime Minister's residence to lie down and take pictures, make mischief and divide the money, and do a series of other bad things.

The Undead Band mobilized all their forces, and even Kirito joined in after writing a series of plans.

The humans quickly found the hiding parasitic beasts, or in other words, as soon as a large number of people approached, the parasitic beasts would jump out on their own.

And the actual result was that there were still many parasitic beasts who came here because of its reputation but had not yet joined the organization. So when the army swept a quarter of the urban area, they had already found the number of parasitic beasts that matched the number of remaining members in the organization as reported in the intelligence.

The Wild Hunt lasted for two days. Two days later, when Xiaobai found the last parasitic beast by smelling it, the operation was basically declared over, except for some that might not be in the city or ran fast.

However, under the current situation, even if they hide outside the city, they can't hide for long. In order to prevent this kind of monster that can directly and seamlessly inherit the master's property, children, wife and everything else from becoming powerful again, the Japanese government is operating almost at all costs. The only thing left is to assign a target for the number of parasitic beast heads killed to each place.

And it can't even be said that Xiaobai found the last parasitic beast.

It doesn't matter whether it's Yoshiko Tamiya or Reiko Tamura. A human name is just a code name for a parasite.

This guy is a scientific researcher of the Parasyte Organization and Goto's creator.

She was found in a maternity and baby supplies store. When she realized the danger and tried to escape, it was too late.

She was about to run away with a baby in her arms, but she stopped when she saw Kirito's hand reaching for his waist.

"and many more."

The woman spoke expressionlessly.

Kirito didn't hesitate at all when he heard the woman's words and lifted Uri En up.

"What? Are you planning to use that child as a threat?"

Kirito looked at the baby crying loudly in the other's arms, and a trace of pity flashed across his face.

He wanted to save the child, but he knew he couldn't.

He had encountered a similar incident before in Ikebukuro West Exit Park, and it was that incident that made him feel a deep-seated disgust for parasites and his own cowardice.

This behavior will not change anything except making Kirito feel that this guy deserves to die even more. However, there are other pregnant women here. If possible, Kirito would rather flatter this guy, lure her to the street and then kill her.

"No, I hope your human government can take care of this child."

There was still no expression on Yoshiko's face, but she took out a stroller from the shelf next to her and put the baby in it.

"I haven't named the baby yet."

Tamiya Yoshiko said this and took two steps back.

As if knowing that her life was coming to an end, Kirito, whom he stared at, spoke her thoughts.

"I believe that parasites are children of humans. Our consciousness, knowledge, and understanding of the world all come from you humans.

Parasitic beasts are infertile. They have the opportunity to coexist peacefully with humans. There is no need for so many innocent people to die, and there is no need for..."

"A child? A child born after killing its parents?"

Kirito interrupted her directly, saying that if she hadn't really put down the baby, she would be dead now.

After a moment of silence, Tamiya Yoshiko spoke again.

"I'm just offering you a possible method. Perhaps you don't need to kill them all, to prevent them from violently attacking others when they realize they are doomed.

We can understand human emotions.

This child is my child. I gave birth to him by inhabiting his mother’s body, and to prove what I said…”

Tamiya Yoshiko put down the stroller, walked up to Kirito, and raised her hands.

"I can be killed by you without resistance."

"Shh!"

Any extra second of hesitation would be a sign of disrespect to Kirito for the parasite, so he unsheathed his katana and stabbed it into her heart.

The sudden attack caused screams from the surrounding shop assistants and customers, and when tentacles began to appear on the head of the guy who was stabbed, their screams only became louder.

"You're just a monster who killed his mother."

Kirito coldly concluded the woman's words.

"Perhaps, but I never think that being born into this world without consciousness is a sin, even if our birth does kill the host.

I have the location and key to my research institute in my pocket. I have tested this child and he is a purebred human.

Even if I parasitize it, it doesn't have the characteristics of a parasitic beast, so it can be detected..."

With the words, the parasitic part dies because of the death of the host.

Kirito closed his eyes, then opened them again, waited until the light floated out, and picked up the baby in the stroller.

It was the mother-son relationship again, but Kirito was already feeling a little numb.

Because there are so many similar incidents, almost everyone harmed by parasitic beasts has relatives and friends. Even those who were hunted in amusement parks always collapse when the Metropolitan Police Department tells their families.

There were even many parasitic beasts along the way, like Ruoye's mother, or the woman in front of him, who developed an inexplicable feeling for family affection, but those were all hormones from the host, instincts from the parasitic brain, and were all fake, not only for the parasitic beasts, but also for their relatives and friends.

But in the end, this parasitic beast was surprisingly naive despite being a researcher. Kirito felt that if it was government troops that met her today, this kid would never be able to leave the laboratory.

After hugging the child, Kirito exchanged glances with the police officers who came to support him and walked out.

Kirito first paid to place the child in a private obstetrics and gynecology hospital, and then found this guy's laboratory. The laboratory was built in the basement of a residential house and was very hidden. No wonder she was discovered at the end.

If she had learned to use takeout instead of risking her life to buy formula because her child was starving and she didn't have enough breast milk, she might have been able to hide until the end of this raid.

……

After the second day of hunting, everyone discovered a common problem: it seemed that there was nothing left to hunt in Dongfushan City.

Then everyone moved to the next city, and found that there was nothing in the next city at all. Military and police could be seen guarding the streets, so they didn't need to worry.

Kirito and Shoko, who were filled with hatred for Parasyte, even felt a sense of frustration because there were no monsters to kill.

After all, even in a city as big as Tokyo, which is home to almost one-tenth of Japan's population, there are only about 30 parasites in total, including those from the Shinomiya family and those killed by junglers. It is only because of the parasitic beasts from all over Japan that East Fukushima has gathered here that there are only about a hundred of them.

In other cities, there are basically only about a dozen parasites. Thanks to the Japanese government's rare and efficient crackdown, parasitic beasts in Japan are now considered endangered species, if not wiped out.

So after wandering around for a few days and finding nothing, the few people had no choice but to leave.

Kirito returned to Tokyo to select and purchase land to build the first branch of his dream foundation, and gave priority to building an orphanage to accommodate children who lost their parents due to parasitic beasts or supernatural events.

The rest of the people were going to check out the music festival that Inspector Megure had mentioned before, which was also a way to check the densely populated areas.

Chapter 346 Music Festival.

After Kirito went on his own, the team suddenly lacked...

Well, just like without the Earth Tiger Man, it seems like the team is missing nothing.

Kerry and Kazuma were still chatting, Xiangzi was still interjecting from time to time, and Xiaobai was lying on Kerry's legs, curled up like a marshmallow and taking a nap.

This Parasyte incident had almost no impact on Kerry and Kazuma.

However, it had a profound impact on the thoughts of Xiangzi and Kirito.

Needless to say, Kirito's thoughts on justice and right and wrong ultimately prompted him to want to establish an organization that could help the entire society.

As for Xiangzi, the matter of Mu and the matter of the parasite gave him great motivation, but now this motivation had lost its focus as he could not find any of the parasites.

"Let me see what netizens are saying about Parasyte."

Kazuma flipped through his phone and clicked on the 2ch forum's "Life" section, wanting to see if everyone was frightened by this incident, while reading it out loud as he did so.

"Www, didn't our family restaurant have an employee jump off the building a while ago? We found out the cause was that the boss forbade employees from changing the oil pan or cleaning the seasoning machine during business hours, and also forbade them from closing as long as there were customers. As a result, they were basically forced to work overtime for more than two hours every day.

Then one employee couldn't stand it anymore and jumped off a building. Then the boss actually decided to lay off employees, requiring store managers to immediately fire anyone if they saw an employee's mood swings. I suspect our boss is a pseudo-human controlled by a parasitic beast and I suggest the government conduct a thorough investigation."

Kazuma finished reading the main post and started reading the comments.

"The first poster asked: What's going on? What does this have to do with Parasyte? The poster replied that the store manager now has the power to fire employees at will, whereas before, they had to report to headquarters, and everyone was under even greater pressure from the store manager.

The second floor said: Why would you rather jump off a building than change jobs? If you want to die, die at home and don’t cause trouble to others.

The 4th floor said: "You've already fallen to the point of working in a family restaurant, so stop complaining and try to capitalize on social media buzz..."

Kazuma got too lazy to read halfway through, so he crossed out the text and flipped through it.

"Hey! Someone here said he was from Hokkaido. He previously exposed the infectious disease that Hinamizawa had, which turned people into aggressive people. He suspected that the parasitic beast was the government's research on that disease and caused the leak. He also said that the people of Hinamizawa had moved to a village near their city and suggested that everyone unite to drive out these outsiders. There were quite a few people who agreed with him.

There are also many people below who say that they suspect their partner is a Parasyte, and then give examples of some strange things their partner has done. There are also Gal players who suggest that manufacturers quickly take advantage of the popularity and launch a Parasyte beautiful girl love game.

The most popular post was about someone hoping a parasite would replace him. As long as he didn't harm his parents and worked hard to support them, he was willing to reveal his identity to the parasite. There were also a lot of "me too" comments below.

Kazuma let out a feigned deep sigh.

"This hasn't caused any panic at all, has it? It hasn't even attracted as much attention as the incident where most of the Shinomiya family members were killed by parasitic beasts."

"You should read less of those online comments. What are they discussing about the Shinomiya family?"

Kerry, who was driving, glanced at Kazuma with some curiosity.

"Are they posting black and white photos of the Shinomiya family members with flowers photoshopped onto their heads as a joke?"

"puff!"

Sitting at the back, pretending to look out the window and act gloomy, Xiangzi, who had actually been listening to their conversation with his little ears perked up, couldn't help but cover his mouth.

He Zhen was stunned when he heard this and looked down.

"What's the hell joke? Well, you guessed it, but they probably haven't seen what a parasite looks like. So they photoshopped a wriggling parasite that lives in a snail's eye onto Shinomiya Yanan's head and made a GIF of it and posted it everywhere."

"Boom!"

From behind came the sound of Xiangzi's head hitting the back seat of the car.

Afterwards, Kazuma seemed to see something interesting and kept looking down at his phone the whole time.
