Chapter 123: 3rd Corner of 24th Street

"Spring is the season when all things revive, and summer is the day of prosperity. Now is the season of revival of all things, but the day of prosperity is approaching soon."

"Welcome to Plant World, I'm your host, Edward Mays."

Children's favorite things to watch are nothing more than cartoons and popular science films. One brings happiness and the other brings exploration. These are what children like the most.

"Mom, mom, it's begun."

Xia Mi's child is very cute, black and tender, neither fat nor thin.

"Son, please watch carefully. Mom is going out to do something."

The clothes Xia Mi is wearing are customized by the New Federation and are a type of nano combat uniform.

Dark black, half-waist cloak, ankle-length shoes, wrist watch.

Coupled with two special laser swords, it is the highest level scientific research achievement of the New Federation.

It is said that this kind of laser sword was almost successfully developed in the old federation era, but before it was produced, the old federation was gone, directly taking advantage of the new federation.

"Mom, why do you night watchmen go out at night?"

Xia Mi did not hide his child. Although their night watchman had a confidentiality clause, it was obvious that Xia Mi did not abide by it.

"Night watchman, night watchman, mother is responsible for watching the city at night. My dear child, please stay at home."

"If there is anything taboo, just call mom... I will rush back as soon as possible."

Watching the city at night, this explanation was so good that Xia Mi’s children thought it was a sentry job.

So I wasn't very curious. I just told my mother to be careful and then turned back to look at the light curtain in front of me.

Up there, we are talking about which plants can be eaten and which plants cannot be eaten.

"Captain, I heard that something happened in a civilian apartment at the corner of 24th Street. There was a mysterious sacrifice ceremony at the scene."

Xia Mi just walked out of the house when he received news from the team members on his watch.

"Don't destroy the scene yet, let the 'prophet' take a look first."

"Yes, Captain!"

Xia Mi waved his hand and fired a javelin, which then shot up to a high-rise building next to his home with a rapid bang. Then he ran with a few steps and jumped onto the roof of the old-fashioned bungalow, running as fast as he could.

"Who is it? Who is running around on the roof?"

"Holy shit, I'm going to use a floor shaker!"

"Don't go out parkour at night, you're looking for death..."

...

The residents were disturbed by Xia Mi's running, but Xia Mi didn't care.

Compared to solving the mystery, a little disturbance is acceptable.

This kind of authority is given to the Night Watchmen by the new federation, and it can be regarded as a kind of privilege.

"From today on, you are the night watchmen guarding the night of the New Federation."

"The old federation was destroyed by the secrets, and our new federation will destroy the secrets!"

"The Night Watchman must not only keep watch, but also become the sharpest knife in the New Federation to eliminate the secrets!"

"We will do whatever it takes to do this."

These were the words of the old group leader when he founded the group. They were impassioned and full of provocation.

When Xia Mi first joined the group, he was very enthusiastic.

Later, after a period of hard work, I found that many mysterious things were not enough to destroy the old federation.

At best it can be regarded as a criminal incident, and a little more bizarre.

But no matter what, the Night Watchmen need to go out when there is 'news'. This is the foundation of the existence of people like the Night Watchmen.

Solve problems that the police cannot solve...

"call"

"How is the situation on site?"

Xia Mi soon arrived at the corner of 24th Street, a city 17 kilometers away from her home in a straight line.

If Xia Mi's awakening ability wasn't related to speed, she might still be worried about how to get to the scene quickly.

"It was like a sacrificial ceremony, with all the internal organs cut out."

The person who answered Xia Mi was a female night watchman with brown hair, not a pretty face, but a figure that would make any passerby react.

"What's the police's statement?"

Xia Mi looked at the red and blue lights outside the window. At the encirclement set up there, more than a dozen police officers were blocking a circle of neighbor spectators. There were also three or four vehicles sent by the regional police parked nearby.

"They don't think it was a murder."

"The deceased was born in an orphanage and had no bad habits. He lived on the government's subsistence allowance every day."

The female night watchman picked up a report sent by the police and told the identity and background of the deceased.

"Well, have you detected any mysterious energy fluctuations?"

Xia Mi hummed, took the report, glanced at it, then turned over and jumped into the deceased's room.

"No, I found a few tentacles."

The female night watchman followed her captain and entered the room, where three fellow night watchmen were detecting.

"'Prophet', have you found any clues?"

Xia Mi glanced at the middle-aged man surrounded by him. He was a night watchman with a beard on his face and looked like a western cowboy.

"No clues have been found, but there is one thing that might scare you if I tell you."

The prophet's face looked a little ugly, especially when he saw Xia Mi had arrived in front of him.

"whats the matter?"

Xia Mi felt the look in the prophet's eyes, which was the look that an outsider would have when looking at the person involved.

"The 'prophecy' points to your home."

"So, I advise you to first..."

The prophet had just finished speaking half a sentence when Xia Mi, whose face suddenly changed drastically, flew out of the window.

"Da da da da da"

The bricks and tiles on the upper floors of the old bungalows and apartments on the street rang louder, and the hurried footsteps seemed like the god of death was chasing behind them.

---

"crunch"

The door opened, revealing the night.

"Mom? Are you back?"

Xia Mi's child was still watching the plant world, but when he heard the door opening, he turned his head and asked.

"...."

Xia Mi's response was silence.

"Mother?"

The child who didn't hear his usual response to his voice suddenly frowned and wanted to go over and take a look at the door.

"tick"

A few drops of water fell to the ground, leaving small traces of water.

"Mom, if you don't speak, I'm going to shout!"

"Don't scare me."

There is a corner from the living room to the door of the house. Xia Mi's child walked slowly towards the door while trying to use words to judge whether his mother was playing a prank on him.

"...."

Still silent.

"Mother?"

Xia Mi's child finally reached the door. There was nothing there except a puddle of water.

"Strange, is it raining?"

Secretly breathing a sigh of relief, Xia Mi's child cautiously looked out the door. There was no one around and it wasn't raining.

"Forget it, wait until mom comes back and tell her."

Xia Mi's child came to his senses and slammed the door shut.

Then he turned around and prepared to continue looking at the world of plants.

"Hey, why are there water drops?"

As soon as he walked to the living room and sat down, a few drops of water suddenly fell from his head, making him shiver.

Without thinking, he raised his head to see what was going on...

Then...

He saw a doll.

No brain.

Looking at the plant world.

"Mother?"

"I am..."

These were the last words spoken by Xia Mi's child.
