After Nick left, Chu He walked on the road and thought about the reunion.
He knew that Alice would be even more suspicious if he did not go.
On the contrary, Chu He felt that Alice might dispel her doubts about him if he went.
He believed that Alice might not be able to sense anything.
After all, he was using the power of cells, not the magic power cultivated by mages.
The fire cells and lightning cells would not show themselves as long as he did not activate them.
Therefore, Chu He still planned on attending this class reunion. Once Alice dispelled her doubts about him, he could continue using Apollo's identity.
However, before that, Chu He felt that he should change to another identity.
After all, Apollo had appeared many times.
As it happened, Chu He also wanted to test the ability brought about by the lightning cells.
After some consideration, Chu He planned on appearing as 'Zeus' the next time.
Today was Wednesday, which meant there were two more days.
In the next two days, Chu He wanted to make his identity as Zeus known and suppress Apollo's presence as much as possible. Therefore, he did not plan on using fire cells.
In the battle at school yesterday, he had used the fire cells excessively. This made the fire cells somewhat low in energy now. In order to not leave any future trouble, Chu He planned on not using them for the time being.
Even though the fire cells could still be used, it was a good opportunity to make Zeus famous. Therefore, it would be best to let the fire cells recover first before using them again.
After figuring everything out, Chu He strolled around the streets for a while before taking a taxi home.
After returning home, Chu He took out his phone and began searching for supernatural events.
After searching for a while, Chu He locked onto two cases.
From what he could see, only these two could be considered supernatural events.
The first was the national cemetery north of San Francisco.
This cemetery had existed for many years.
It was said to be the place where the bodies of soldiers were placed during World War II. However, the cemetery was later moved away and became a civilian cemetery.
Because the cemetery occupied a large area, many grave keepers were needed.
There were also many homeless people who settled down here.
However, some strange things had happened recently. Whether it was the grave keepers or the homeless, they would faint at night for no reason, but they would be fine the next day.
This was the strange thing about this matter.
The second incident happened at the San Francisco General Hospital.
This was the biggest hospital in San Francisco. There were many patients every day.
However, in recent times, there were people who discovered some hideous corpses on the empty paths around the hospital.
According to the information revealed by the police, these corpses were missing pieces here and there. The entire scene was too horrible to look at, but after checking, they found out that these people had died from immense pain. This made the police confused.
Putting the phone on the table, Chu He looked at the time. It was almost five in the evening.
There were only a few hours left until nightfall.
Therefore, Chu He decided to take a nap to recover his energy.
…
Time flew by and night fell.
Isa moved stealthily through the crowded streets, the shadows of her body blending into the night. Her eyes glowed in the dark. Only the most vicious of eyes could notice her.
A group of drunkards conversed with prostitutes on a nearby street, completely unaware that they were being watched by a demon in the darkness.
But this demon saw them clearly, and was examining them with the keenest of eyes.
Soon, Isa's eyes locked onto someone lying next to the trash can.
He was holding a bottle of whiskey in his hand. If it was someone else, Isa would not even look at him. However, she had not eaten for a few days.
The feeling of hunger forced her to seriously consider it, even though it was only for a short while.
"If I'm going to do it, it'll be a piece of cake. I just need to take him into a random alley, away from the streetlights." Isa was trying to brainwash herself, in an attempt to make herself less resistant.
But not long after, she rejected the idea because she saw a rat crawling over him, although he did not feel anything.
Isa knew very well that this person was already dead drunk and numb all over. Even if she managed to arouse his interest, he would still be slow to react.
Through her experience of eating countless times, Isa knew such a person too well. She might even need to peel off the skin of an entire arm to make him scream.
She gave up on the drunkard and continued walking along the path beside the hospital.
Isa glided softly through the shadows of the street, past the other two drunkards, past a beggar who was begging, and past an arguing couple.
"No!"
"No!"
"…"
As she passed each person, Isa commented to herself. Along the way, she met many people, but none of them could bring up Isa's appetite.
It was because these people were like withered flower petals. The pain they received from getting harmed could not satisfy Isa.
Looking at the street that was about to reach the end of the darkness, a terrifying thought arose in her heart.
'Perhaps it was a mistake for me to choose the hunting grounds in this lifeless, haunted place. Perhaps, in the next moment, the thrill brought by the previous prey will fade.'
At the thought of this, Isa became anxious.
Suddenly, from the corner of her eye, she saw a man who had just gotten out of the car.
The man was about 21 or 22 years old. He had short hair and the collar of his white shirt was slightly open. The sleeves of his shirt were rolled up to the middle of his arms, revealing his tanned skin. His eyes were deep and spirited, his nose was high, and his lips were sexy. Especially when they were matched together, it was like a masterpiece by God.
The two whips on Isa's back twitched in excitement. Even though they were far apart, she could still feel this man's leisurely and carefree attitude.
Soon, she followed closely behind this man, sometimes dodging and evading, sometimes moving carefully, not losing her prey nor alerting him.
The man that Isa was following was none other than Chu He, who had come to the hospital to find monsters.
However, Chu He did not realize that he had been followed.
He walked along the streets near the hospital in a daze, trying to find the demonic creature.
Unfortunately, he could not find the monster that he had been longing for. In the end, he could only take a taxi home.
When he returned home, he prepared to take a shower and then go to bed. Little did he know that a demon was watching him from inside the house.
