Chapter 629 Solve the doubts
"Master Xiao, since the murderer is not a human, then what is it?"
After asking this question, Father Meng stared at Master Xiao closely, not missing any slightest change on the other's face.
……
"Abnormal creature."
Xiao Xiao chose a euphemism.
"Abnormal creature?"
Father Meng repeated it subconsciously, and a crack appeared on his usually calm and solemn expression.
He was a little confused, "What is that?"
……
Father Meng's reaction made Xiao Xiao smile. He looked at Father Meng and said word by word: "It's a monster."
"Oh, a monster."
Father Meng nodded, then suddenly leaned forward a few inches, his eyes widened, and his voice unconsciously rose a little, "What? Monster?!"
Noticing the smile in Xiao Xiao's eyes, Father Meng couldn't help but reach out and knock on the coffee table in front of him. The hard and slightly cool touch made his inexplicably impatient mood calm down a little.
He pursed his lips, and although he tried his best to suppress it, a bit of oppressive aura still leaked out from his body.
"Master Xiao, don't joke with me."
……
"I'm serious."
Xiao Xiao was not angry about being questioned. He knew that it was not as easy as it seemed for ordinary people to accept the fact that the murderer was not a human but a monster.
It is not easy to make a person change his inherent cognition with just a few words.
The fact that Meng's father did not assume that he was talking nonsense from the beginning was the best reaction Xiao Xiao had expected.
He thought that this was probably because the other party had already guessed it in his mind.
……
After his initial loss of composure, Father Meng quickly regained his composure.
To be honest, he had guessed that the murderer was a monster.
However, no matter how confident a guess is, it is still just a guess. Once it becomes a reality, the impact it causes will still be extremely huge.
……
It really is a monster.
Father Meng felt somewhat emotional and unbelievable.
The cases he handled in the past also involved superstition, cults, and even witchcraft, although in the end it was all due to human nature.
After all, many things seem mysterious and terrifying, but once they are exposed to the sun, they become empty and ordinary.
He has seen a lot too.
All police officers are staunch materialists and believe in science.
In their usual cognition, all abnormal phenomena are nothing but deliberate and coincidental results of favorable timing, location and human intervention.
It is nothing more than a means for criminals to commit crimes.
……
Father Meng never imagined that one day, the murderer he was tracking down would be a monster.
Either the world is crazy or he is hallucinating.
……
Unfortunately, he knew that the world was not crazy and he was not hallucinating.
Everything was normal. Even the person who said these "earth-shattering" words looked very normal, which made him seem like he was making a fuss out of nothing.
……
Xiao Xiao picked up the cup of water in front of him and took a few sips of water, waiting patiently for Father Meng to calm down.
Father Meng did not let him wait any longer.
Even though he was very surprised and shocked by the existence of monsters in the world, his many years of police career had made him accustomed to facing all kinds of unknowns and incredible things, and had trained him to remain calm in the face of emergencies and to have a strong level of acceptance and tolerance.
……
Father Meng looked at Xiao Xiao, and slowly accepted the new side of this world that he had long been familiar with. Even if it was just the tip of the iceberg, he still needed some time to digest it.
"Master Xiao, who is the murderer of the previous serial murder case in the bar?"
Father Meng suddenly spoke.
"It's a monster."
Xiao Xiao gave the answer that Meng's father expected.
“It’s also a monster.”
Father Meng muttered to himself, "No wonder..." No wonder no matter how hard they searched, they couldn't find any clues about the murderer.
Just like this time.
With so many surveillance cameras and so many police officers, they still couldn't find any clues about the murderer.
It turns out that the murderer is not human at all.
The methods used to deal with ordinary human criminals are naturally useless against monsters.
……
"All that noise last night-"
Father Meng chose his words carefully, with a hint of realization on his face, "Is it a monster?"
There was some awkwardness in his words, and it was obvious that he was not yet used to the word "monster".
……
"That monster is very powerful."
Thinking of last night's fierce fight, Xiao Xiao felt a little emotional.
The difficulty of the opponent was beyond his expectations.
Moreover, the fact that the fat worm that Wuwu disliked before was easy to deal with also gave him the illusion that this kind of monster should have limited strength.
Who would have thought that if the monsters on his side did not have an absolute advantage in numbers, the final result would be very different.
The monster that Xiao Xiao didn't take too seriously at the beginning almost wiped out all the monsters on his side.
……
However, thinking of the demon's "full meal", Xiao Xiao's eyebrows couldn't help but curl up.
At least the harvest is still good.
The fat worm provided Yaojian with considerable "food".
……
Xiao Xiao could even hear a hint of satisfaction and joy in A Yu's dull voice.
However, what made Xiao Xiao regretful was that A Yu’s injuries did not improve significantly as a result.
It just turned from a serious injury to a moderately serious injury.
……
The benefits he himself obtained were more obvious.
Not only was his lost spiritual energy replenished, but his cultivation also improved significantly.
Feeling the warmth in his body, even though his face looked expressionless, Xiao Xiao's eyes and eyebrows revealed a bright smile.
It feels really good to clearly feel that I am getting stronger.
Power can really make people intoxicated.
……
Immortality is, of course, the ultimate goal of all practitioners who practice Taoism against the will of heaven, but watching yourself change and become stronger little by little during the long journey is also something that makes people extremely unable to stop.
At least, Xiao Xiao fell in love with this feeling.
Every progress made him feel refreshed both physically and mentally, as if his soul had been wiped clean of dust and dirt and purified.
The Lingtai school is ethereal and clear.
……
"Is it strong?"
When Father Meng thought of the big commotion last night, a look of recognition and understanding flashed across his face.
Very strong indeed.
However, “Master Xiao, was it the monster next to you that was fighting with that monster last night?”
Because Master Xiao was just standing there at the time, he didn't know what Master Xiao did, but at least he was sure that the person fighting with the monster was not Master Xiao.
It should also be a monster, and it is a monster tamed by Master Xiao.
"Yes."
Xiao Xiao admitted it frankly.
No wonder.
Father Meng couldn't help but let out a bitter smile. Two such powerful monsters were fighting. No wonder the northwest suburbs were almost destroyed by the aftermath of their battle.
Thinking of the devastation in the northwest suburbs, Father Meng was amazed at the destructive power of the monster.
