Chapter 42=16 Hunting action

In Bunkyo District, near Minghegu Station.

Police cars coming from all over the city quickly converged here, and Ryusuke Higashino followed them from a distance, hiding himself.

In a police car, a criminal policeman with a square face picked up the walkie-talkie and gave instructions. He was none other than Morimichi Sugada of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, and he was also the on-site commander of this operation.

As early as in the afternoon, after the Yamanashi Prefectural Police Station sent them information about the unconfirmed life form, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department immediately dispatched. As soon as they discovered the traces of No. 5, they quickly launched a round-up operation.

"In Bunkyo District, pay attention to that figure."

"Headquarters has sent instructions to prioritize shooting, everyone, cheer up!"

Godai, who just happened to rush back to Tokyo from the highway, happened to encounter the murderer No. 5, so he immediately turned into Kuuga and started fighting with No. 5.

The two fought all the way, but little did they know that the police had already targeted them.

Just as they were fighting fiercely, they were suddenly surrounded by several police cars. Dozens of police officers got out of the car and aimed their guns at them, leaving Fifth Generation at a loss.

A policeman picked up the walkie-talkie and reported, "I am Sakurai. I have discovered an unconfirmed life form suspected to be No. 5, and No. 4 is also here."

"Two? Got it, I'll come right away!"

Sugita Morimichi's police car arrived at the scene quickly, and he quickly got out of the car and drew his pistol and went to the front line.

"Are they those two? Sakurai, listen, aim at No. 4 with me, and the others aim at No. 5."

"learn!"

"shooting!"

Under the night, following an order, the muzzles of dozens of police guns spit out fierce flames, and dense bullets roared directly towards the target in front...



Nagano City Police Headquarters.

Half an hour ago, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's combat intelligence on unidentified life forms had been delivered here, but it still needed to be sorted out by intelligence officers.

In the conference room, Ichijo Kaoru was a little restless, twisting the piece of paper with one hand in his pocket, constantly worried about the situation of Godai Yusuke.

The minister walked into the conference room with a document, "Everyone, please listen to me. Formal information about the Tokyo incident has been sent. It said that surrounded by 8 police cars, unidentified life forms No. 4 and No. 5 were found together.

He escaped the gunfire and disappeared. However, No. 5 was shot in the right eye and escaped with injuries, but the speed was so fast that it was difficult for the police car to pursue him, so he needed to use the latest TRCS-2000a."

It seemed that the Fifth Generation was fine. Ichijo Kaoru breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.

Ebizawa stepped forward and said, "I don't think those weirdos will come back to Nagano on purpose again!"

The minister nodded and said to everyone, "The unconfirmed life form incident will be put on hold for today."

Then he turned to Kaoru Ichijo who was silent at the side and said: "Each police station should set up an investigation department. Ichijo-kun, you go to Tokyo tomorrow!"

"Going to Tokyo?" Ichijo raised his head in surprise.

The minister explained the reason to him: "The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department will hold a meeting to establish security operations in each prefecture, and someone is needed to take charge."

He was really dozing off and someone gave him a pillow. He was thinking about how to deal with matters related to unconfirmed life forms, but the opportunity came unexpectedly.

"I'll prepare the materials immediately!" Ichijou was immediately full of fighting spirit and left the conference room without stopping.



Bunkyo District, Hakusan Town.

When it got dark, Higashino Ryusuke returned to Asama's house alone and silently.

There were no accidents in the police's action, and everything developed as before, which made him feel more relaxed, at least proving that his appearance had not brought any worse consequences.

He quietly returned upstairs, moving carefully so as not to disturb Granny Asama and Satoko.

When they went up to the second floor, Wang Shen, who was sitting in the living room, just glanced at him tacitly. Ryusuke immediately understood. It seemed that he had already made an excuse for his sudden departure.

Well, reliable Lao Wang!

"Those guys show up again?"

"Um."

Without saying anything more, the two of them went back to the bedroom to rest.

Late at night, a figure quietly came to Higashino Ryusuke's bed, stretched out his hand and put it on his forehead, murmuring, and along with the low voice, there seemed to be a strange power flowing.

Ryusuke looked a little struggling, his eyes rolled, as if he was having a nightmare, but he didn't wake up.

After a while, the figure was sweating profusely, but left in disappointment and returned to another bedroom...

This night was peaceful, perhaps the last peaceful night in Tokyo before the unconfirmed life-form incident occurred.

Everyone is sleeping peacefully in their dreams, and no one cares about the wailing that echoes through the underground drainage channels.

Northern Epidemic 5-chome, Leopard Girl No. 5 covered her injured right eye and came to the ditch, scooped up some water and poured it on her eye. She endured the severe pain and pulled out the bullet embedded in the eye socket.

A few drops of blood fell to the ground along with the copper bullet, making a crisp sound...



Tokyo Station, 8:35am.

Kaoru Ichijo arrived in Tokyo early, and as soon as he got off the train, he called Sakurako Sawatari - because Godai didn't have a phone himself, Kaoru Ichijo left Sakurako's number as a contact when he was in Nagano.

"Sorry, is Godai Yusuke here? Please let him answer the call."

After a while, Godai Yusuke's voice came from the other side of the phone, "Good morning, Mr. Ichijo."

"Godai, nothing happened to you!" Ichijo asked seriously.

"Oh, I was shot by a pistol yesterday. I came back in a hurry, but I didn't suffer any injuries." Godai said relaxedly on the phone.

"Just in time, I came to Tokyo for a countermeasures meeting. Before that, I wanted to meet and talk."

"I know, let's meet at the entrance of Tokyo Station Marunouchi Line, okay." Godai agreed on the location and went out excitedly.

Ichijo hung up the phone, came to the Marunouchi line and waited quietly.

Ten minutes later, the police car sent by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to pick him up arrived nearby.

He stayed for another quarter of an hour but there was still no sign of Godai, so he could only get in the car and rush to the Metropolitan Police Department.

On the way, he called Sakurako Sawatari again, "Miss Sakurako, has Godai gone out?"

"Yes, I went out immediately after that, haven't I arrived yet?" Sakura asked in surprise.

Kaoru Ichijo was stunned. Logically speaking, the Fifth Generation should have arrived a long time ago, but now...could something happen? He suddenly thought: "Unconfirmed Life Form No. 5 seems to have appeared..."

Sakurako hesitated for a moment, but decided to ask: "Mr. Ichijo, if Godai wants to transform, please stop him."

"Of course!" Ichijo Kaoru replied affirmatively.

"The fifth generation will act randomly and not care about his own affairs. Sooner or later he will be in trouble, so I'm begging you."

"Got it." Ichijo hung up the phone and sat back in the passenger seat with a solemn expression.

Suddenly, a notification came from the communication equipment on the police car, "This is Car No. 1, and traces of No. 5 have been found. There are traces of lurking in Hokkaido 5-chome. Please be alert to the criminal police passing by nearby."

"learn!"

"Understood!" responded one after another in the channel.

"This is car No. 7. We found No. 5 at the intersection of Central 3-chome! It's moving in the direction of Aoyama." An urgent communication came, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

In the city, the figure of the Leopard Girl is like a ghost, shuttling on various roads, leaving a trail of afterimages behind her.

Godai borrowed (hijacked) a motorcycle from an injured policeman and chased him with all his might. The two of them passed by a street intersection very quickly.

Ichijo, who was sitting in the car, saw two figures passing by at the intersection in front of him. He couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise and quickly asked the driver to drive after them.

"This guy Fifth Generation..."

After tracking for a while, I found a somewhat discouraged Godai at the bottom of the stairs outside a tall building.

Seeing that he was just an ordinary citizen, the driving police officer on the side rushed up angrily and asked Godai, "What are you planning to do?"

"Sorry, I didn't catch up." Godai replied with some self-blame.

As expected, Godai went to face those guys without hesitation, just as he said.

Ichijo Kaoru sighed softly and silently came to Godai, then took out the handcuffs and put them on his hands without any explanation.

"Oh!!!" Godai looked at the expressionless Kaoru Ichijo in disbelief.

"I'll take this guy away, and you go chase the unidentified life form." Kaoru Ichijo said to the driving police officer.
