My daughter has been possessed.

Chapter 14 Catching Him Off Guard

Li Jiuhe was still confused about what had happened.

Judging from the strange woman's appearance, she seemed to have been eyeing the Fear Eater for a long time. However, she must have been like me, knowing that the Fear Eater was nearby, but unable to find it either.

The flute music played by the woman can cause physical abnormalities in those who hear it in the area, forcing those with cannibalistic tendencies to reveal themselves.

At the same time, her method of capturing the Terror Eaters was somewhat unique, and the runes on the badge she used were also somewhat similar to the runes on Li Jiuhe's Silver Erosion Dagger.

Most importantly, the woman just asked Li Jiuhe, "A fellow traveler?"

She may have considered herself one of her colleagues, and colleagues should share the same goal: to capture this person with a fear of food.

As the other person approached, Li Jiuhe did not retreat, but simply pretended to look calmly at the other person.

"Are you also tracking him?" The woman didn't reveal her identity but asked directly.

Li Jiuhe knew that this woman had been hiding in the shadows and must have noticed him long ago. He couldn't deny it, so he could only nod.

"You don't seem to be an investigator?" The woman also noticed Li Jiuhe's unusual behavior at this moment.

"An investigator? This woman is an investigator!" Li Jiuhe's heart skipped a beat.

He realized that the woman might belong to an official organization. After all, there were mysteries hidden in this world, and it was impossible for the authorities to be completely unaware of them.

Therefore, it is possible that the country has secretly established an organization similar to an investigation bureau, and this woman should be an investigator in the organization.

His mind raced, and he immediately pointed to the person with cannibalistic tendencies, replying, "I only recently awakened and accidentally discovered that this person is harming other ordinary people."

The woman scrutinized Li Jiuhe, seemingly trying to discern from his expression whether he was lying.

After a moment, the woman nodded: "You're right. This person is called a fear eater. He can perceive the fear in people's hearts, materialize it, and use it to frighten people to obtain more fear to consume."

The woman then beckoned to Li Jiuhe: "Now that we've met by chance, let's go to the Investigation Bureau to register. Every awakened Sequence User must register and be managed by the Investigation Bureau; otherwise, they'll end up like this cannibalistic person..."

Li Jiuhe clearly had no intention of going with her to that so-called investigation bureau, and instead asked, "Could I know what you plan to do with this person after you arrest him?"

The woman looked at him suspiciously: "What do you want to know?"

Li Jiuhe didn't hide anything and said directly, "I want to know what value this person with cannibalism has for the Investigation Bureau?"

The woman looked wary, glanced around, and then asked, "Did you come into contact with other Sequence Users after you awakened? What did they say to you?"

"No." Li Jiuhe shook his head. "Aside from accidentally encountering this cannibal, you were the second Sequencer I met."

The woman lowered her head in thought, as if something was troubling her.

Suddenly, she took a step forward, closing the distance between herself and Li Jiuhe again, and then quickly slapped his chest and abdomen three times.

Three badges were affixed to Li Jiuhe's body.

A strange force descended instantly, suppressing Li Jiuhe's will to resist, while simultaneously tightening his sequence energy.

However, for Li Jiuhe, it was too slow for these external forces to take effect from their appearance. With just a thought, the mission was instantly reset.

His vision blurred for a moment, and when it cleared again, he was back at the point when he had just left the neighborhood and set up his mission.

Turn two more streets and you'll reach the sports park.

Li Jiuhe rode his electric scooter steadily, while sighing inwardly.

He had just intended to take that opportunity to extract the secrets of the Fear Eaters from the woman who appeared to be an official investigator, and see if he could find out the role of the Fear Eaters in the Sequencers.

If we could find out, we could deduce what the transmigrator who possessed the daughter intended to do with the tongue of the cannibal.

But the woman was clearly not so easily fooled. She sensed that Li Jiuhe's words and actions were not right and immediately took action against him.

He could sense that after those badges were affixed to his body, his control over the definition of the mission did indeed begin to weaken.

However, the reduction will take time, and this time will be enough for him to reset the task ten times immediately.

Therefore, the attacks from those badges posed no threat to him at all.

From the conversation just now, Li Jiuhe also deduced that, besides the official investigation bureau, there seemed to be other Sequencer forces hidden in this world.

Otherwise, the woman wouldn't have suddenly asked him if he had been in contact with other Sequencers.

These forces may be in opposition to the official forces.

But we can't worry about that now; we can't let that woman take the phalloid into custody.

In this way, the transmigrator who possessed the daughter's body wouldn't be able to get the Fear Eater's tongue and wouldn't leave the daughter's body for a while.

No matter what, my daughter's safety must be the top priority!

After checking the remaining 5 reset points, Li Jiuhe quickly arrived at the entrance of the sports park.

Just as I parked the car, I saw the female investigator I had seen earlier walking towards me from the other direction of the park entrance.

However, the woman did not see him.

Because last time Li Jiuhe ran into the park, he didn't immediately find the person with food phobia. Instead, he circled around the park before finally pinpointing the area at the foot of the mountain.

Now, it saves a lot of time, as we can directly target the foot of the mountain.

This time, Li Jiuhe didn't take off his motorcycle helmet. Instead, he pulled the black visor that came with the helmet over his face, covering his entire face except for his eyes. He then ran into the sports park and headed straight for the foot of the mountain.

This time the time was earlier than last time.

When we arrived at the area at the foot of the mountain, the six elderly people were dancing ballroom dance, but their expressions revealed a slight fear, and their dance steps began to become chaotic, clearly unable to keep up with the lively music.

Li Jiuhe initially only saw six old men and did not see any trace of the terror eater.

However, having learned from his previous experience, he still remembered where that guy had been squatting.

I quickly walked over to that area, while trying to keep my eyes wide open to see where the food-fearer had suddenly stood up last time.

Sure enough, the scene before them quickly became clear, and a scene that they had previously failed to notice came into view.

There was a middle-aged man in tattered clothes squatting there, his mouth slightly open, his tongue sticking out, greedily licking the air.

It was as if a mouthwatering piece of roasted meat was hanging in front of him, and he was like a hungry wolf.

At this moment, Li Jiuhe could even clearly see that the surface of this guy's huge tongue was covered with dense, fine hairs, making it look extremely disgusting.

While the man was completely absorbed in the music and the woman's flute music had not yet started, he quickly approached and pulled out a silver-plated dagger from his satchel.

As soon as he approached the man, Li Jiuhe hardened his heart, bent down slightly, and with lightning speed, plunged the silver-corroded dagger into the man's heart.
