The Glorious Summoner

Chapter 47

47 Locking on the target

From a human’s point of view, old man sun Defeng was actually dead. Now, he was just a walking corpse without self-consciousness, a host of brain-eating insects!

However, from a biological point of view, he was not completely dead, because his body still had vital signs and could still metabolize.

From the point of view of the order Committee and the law of this era, he was indeed dead. He was a special case of death caused by parasitism by space-invading creatures, which could be treated as a living corpse of a brain-eating insect host.

It was just that the people in the small town didn’t know that sun Defeng was dead.

Every morning, Xia ping ‘an would watch The Living Corpse leave his courtyard and go to the garden in the middle of the street in the town to exercise with the elderly in the town. He would follow behind the aunties who were square dancing and move his hands and legs to move his body.

It was a horrifying feeling to see a living corpse dancing in the square while exercising among the crowd. However, the other people around sun Defeng didn’t notice his abnormality.

The seemingly peaceful city was not short of such eye-popping supernatural events.

All the actions of The Living Corpse were not autonomous, but remotely controlled by the brain-eating insect.

Since sun Defeng lived alone, the Special Operations Division’s analysis concluded that the Demon’s Eye member who had fused with the brain-eating insect wouldn’t take the initiative to come into contact with sun Defeng’s residence. It would be too eye-catching.

The most likely possibility was that the member of the Demon’s Eye would control the time when sun Defeng went out and find an opportunity to contact him in public.

In this way, he could find the main body of the brain-eating insect according to the pattern of sun Defeng’s outdoor activities.

The interval between the brain-eating insect’s main body and its host body could not exceed nine days, and each close contact should be at least five minutes, and there must be obvious physical contact.

Sun Defeng’s life was very regular. He went to exercise every morning, went to the suburban park every three days, and went to the supermarket in the city every four days. He spent most of his time in the town.

Speaking of the suburban park, according to the information obtained by the Special Operations Division, one of the missing people who were dismembered and sacrificed in the cold storage warehouse had disappeared near the suburban park. The traces of activity of the two coincided.

After watching for two days, Xia Pingan discovered that the zombie controlled by the brain-eating insect would always use a small bottle of ether and a handkerchief to kidnap people when they were unprepared.

Not many people would be on guard against an old man taking a walk in a suburban park. However, this old man was a living corpse controlled by a brain-eating insect. It was very normal for the host to actively search for food and sacrificial items.

This speculation was shocking, but it was close to the truth.

After eliminating the suspicions of the old ladies and elders who worked out and square-danced with sun Defeng in the town, the focus of the surveillance on sun Defeng was on his trips to the suburban park every three days and the supermarket in the city every four days.

In sun Defeng’s two trips out, anyone who had been in contact with him for more than five minutes and had obvious physical contact with him would be the main target of the investigation.

Because of Xia ping ‘an’s long-distance vision ability, the heavy responsibility of monitoring sun Defeng when he went out fell on Xia ping’ an.

Xia ping ‘an’s surveillance of sun Defeng did not require anyone to follow him. He only needed to be a few hundred meters away and keep an eye on him with his long-distance vision ability.

Xia ping ‘an watched sun Defeng for four days. She watched him go to the small town to exercise four times in the morning, play mahjong and drink tea three times, and go to the suburban park once. During this period, sun Defeng came into contact with some people, but those people were not members of the Devil’s Eye.

On Wednesday, four days after sun Defeng went to the supermarket, he got on the bus to the supermarket.

Li Yunzhou drove a very ordinary SUV and followed behind the bus. Xia Pingan sat in li Yunzhou’s car and was not on the bus, but he was paying attention to every move on the bus.

Behind li Yunzhou’s car was a surveillance vehicle disguised as an urban freight bus that tu Poli, an Qing, and the others were in.

There weren’t many people on the bus, but fortunately, no one on the bus wanted to have any long-term physical contact with an old man, so it wasn’t difficult to monitor the bus.

After seven or eight bus stops, the bus finally entered the crowded downtown area of Xiang He.

Sun Defeng alighted here, and Xia Pingan also alighted behind him.

the host has gotten off the bus and is walking towards the supermarket. I’m following behind the host, about 100 meters away. On the bus just now, I didn’t find any target who had physical contact with the host, Yingluo, ” Xia Pingan reported in a low voice as he shuttled through the crowd. He was keeping in touch with young master mo and the others at all times.

Near the back of Xia Pingan’s ear, there was a small piece of Bionic tape that was the same color as her skin. If one did not touch it with their hands, they would not be able to find it.

There was a small communication device on the Bionic Rubber cloth that could collect and transmit sound through the vibration of the skin. The communication device was connected to Xia ping ‘an’s mobile phone, and the signal was transmitted to the monitoring vehicle through the mobile phone. It was very convenient.

the supermarket is very crowded, and it’s in a public area in the city. We didn’t find any close contact between the host and the members of Demon’s Eye a few days ago. Today is the fourth day we’ve been monitoring the host. It’s very important, so be careful. If the contact time between the host and The Living Corpse is eight days, we’re most likely to find the target today, ” an Qing’s gentle voice came into his ear.

“I understand, Zhenzhen.”

Seeing that the old man had already come down the escalator in front of the supermarket, Xia Pingan ran through the crowd and ran to the straight escalator entrance on the other side. She went up the elevator and ended the call.

The supermarket was located in the downtown area, on the second floor of the shopping center. Even in broad daylight, there were still many people.

In such a place, an old man shopping would not attract any attention at all. At the same time, the difficulty of monitoring would also increase greatly.

Xia ping ‘an did not dare to relax. Even if she was not by the old man’s side, her long-distance vision kept a close eye on the old man.

The old man didn’t enter the supermarket first. Instead, he went upstairs and walked around the shopping mall on the third floor.

This unusual behavior immediately caught Xia Pingan’s attention. Xia Pingan did not follow them into the mall on the third floor. Instead, she loitered around the cosmetics counter outside the mall, pretending to pick out cosmetics for her girlfriend.

the host has entered the shopping mall on the third floor, ” Xia Pingan immediately reported. there are fewer people in the shopping mall on the third floor, so it’s easy to be discovered if you follow me. I’m outside the shopping mall on the third floor. I think the host’s behavior is a little abnormal. It seems like she’s repeatedly confirming whether she’s being followed, ” Xia Pingan said.

be careful, don’t get close. The host’s movements are controlled by the host. This might be the host checking if she’s being followed. The host might return to the supermarket again!

“Understood!”

Sure enough, after more than ten minutes, the old man did not have any physical contact with anyone on the third floor of the mall. He took the escalator down from the third floor and entered the supermarket on the second floor.

Xia Pingan changed to another place on the third floor and did not follow them into the supermarket.

Li Yunzhou had already entered the supermarket one step ahead and was waiting to take over the surveillance. Xia Pingan was outside, monitoring with his long-distance vision ability.

The supermarket was a key area, so the two of them kept an eye on it together.

The old man bought some vegetables in the supermarket. Other than a little physical contact with the supermarket’s salesperson, there was no other abnormal behavior. The supermarket’s salesperson had stayed with the old man for less than three minutes, so they couldn’t meet the contact conditions of the brain-eating insect’s host.

The old man left the place where the fresh vegetables were sold, then paid for the exit of the supermarket and left the supermarket. Everything was normal.

Xia ping ‘an was puzzled. Was the old man’s shopping trip today just a normal activity? However, the old man’s actions on the third floor were obviously a little unusual.

Just as the old man came out of the supermarket and Xia Pingan thought that he would leave, the old man walked around half a circle and came from the exit of the supermarket to the entrance of the shopping center by the side door. He stored the ingredients he bought in the storage cabinet and then walked towards the men’s bathroom on the second floor of the shopping center.

Bathroom? why didn’t I think of that!

Xia Pingan immediately reacted, but he did not get excited. He only used his long-distance vision ability to follow the old man to the men’s bathroom.

There was a row of independent cubicles in the men’s bathroom. Xia Pingan watched as the old man entered the men’s bathroom and came to one of the cubicles. After closing the door, the old man knelt on the ground.

A hand quietly reached out from under the partition next to him!

The old man knelt on the ground, his body wriggling. He stuck out his tongue like a snake and gently licked the hand that was reaching out from the side.

People who didn’t know the details would only think that it was some perverted behavior. They wouldn’t think that this was the way the host body of the brain-eating insect came in contact with the main body.

This scene was too disgusting, too horrifying, and too painful to the eyes.

Xia Pingan, who saw this scene, was shocked. He was worried that he would be sensed, so he immediately shifted his view from the old man kneeling on the ground to the long glass in the bathroom. He used the distant ” indirect view ” to observe the situation in the bathroom through the mirror.

The ” indirect perspective ” of the long-distance vision ability was the least likely to be discovered.

About six or seven minutes later, the sound of flushing came from the cubicle next to the old man. The cubicle door opened, and a successful man in his 50s, dressed in a gray suit and blue shirt, walked out of the cubicle with a brown briefcase under his arm. He went to the sink, washed his hands, and looked at himself in the mirror.

There was nothing special about the man in the mirror, except that his gloomy eyes had a trace of Gao Qingshan.

I’ve finally locked you in!

Xia Pingan calmed down and immediately reported, ” the Demon’s Eye member who has fused with the brain-eating insect’s body has been confirmed. He is walking out of the bathroom on the west side of the shopping center. He is a man wearing a gray suit and a blue shirt. He is holding a brown briefcase under his arm and is walking towards Elevator No. 4 of the shopping center.

“Found him, Yingluo!” Yan Mo’s voice came from the headset.

we’ve connected to the surveillance system in the shopping center. We’ve confirmed the target you mentioned, Yingluo, ” an Qing’s voice came.

......

A few minutes later, the targeted member of Demon’s Eye drove out of the shopping center’s parking lot in a car, not knowing that he had been locked on.

Outside, the Special Operations Division and a high-altitude drone had locked onto the man’s car. The public safety and road monitoring system of the entire Xianghe city had been mobilized by the order Committee to firmly lock the man down.

Xia ping ‘an also quietly handed over the mission target. From this moment on, the old man’s host, which had been exposed and posed a low threat, would be tracked and controlled by another quick response team of the order Committee. When Xia ping’ an and the others took the initiative to attack the brain-eating insects, they would eliminate them.

Xia ping ‘an met up with the other members of the Special Forces and held on tightly to the Demon’s Eye member who had fused with the brain-eating insect’s body.

That member of the demonic eye was a homicidal maniac who had a special ability.

Given the corpses in the freezer, it was definitely not the first time for this person to sacrifice Pi Xiu.

We can’t let that Demon’s Eye member escape again!
