Ke-style law enforcement officers

Chapter 253 Meow~
As it turned out, the survivors were not very willing to tell law enforcement officers what they had seen during their dream-induced experiences.

Milo spent the whole day working, but basically came up with nothing.

He did not feel that he had any ability to induce dreams in people.

Compared to the previous two days of running around and fighting, Milo felt that sitting in the reception room dealing with all sorts of oddballs was a more physically demanding thing, or more accurately, a mental torment.

That's fucking terrifying.

Especially that tough guy, over two meters tall, who insisted on showing Milo his chrysanthemum tear.

Milo could only be thankful that he had slipped away quickly enough.

……

"This won't work."

Milo rode his horse around the dark streets of Nanwei City.

He wasn't particularly concerned about how the incident at the Confession Wharf would ultimately end. In any case, the pressure from higher-ups wouldn't reach him, a low-level law enforcement officer. The key now was to improve his spiritual vision as quickly as possible.

Only by enhancing his spiritual vision can he retrieve the fragments of Graki's memories, find Idhra's whereabouts, and use them to exchange with the special beings mentioned by the Scarlet Witch for a way to fight the hounds.

It sounds like we've gone in circles, but it all boils down to improving our spiritual vision.

This was the first time Milo had somewhat hoped that a visionary would come to Nanwei City.

Yes, he had thoughts of plunder.

Although it is inherently a cruel thing, it's all for the sake of making a living.

……

On his way back to the law enforcement office, Milo encountered Yan, who was on duty on the street.

He hadn't seen Yan wearing the uniform of a city guard for a long time, and had almost forgotten that this was his job.

"There's nothing we can do. With such a big incident, the higher-ups have ordered a city-wide increase in security. The entire city guard has been mobilized, and everyone who can breathe is on the streets keeping watch."

Yan started complaining with a long face as soon as he saw Milo.

He tossed a cigarette to Milo, then realized what he'd done and slapped his forehead: "I forgot you quit. Give it back, give it back, don't waste it."

Milo tossed the cigarette back to Yan and casually asked:

"Oh right, there's something I forgot to ask. Why weren't you unconscious? After all, everyone around the dock collapsed."

"Why don't you ask your tigress? Wasn't she lively and energetic back then?" Yan lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth.

Milo slapped his forehead: "Oh yeah, damn, I've been so busy lately... So you didn't see anything strange at all? I mean, all the other people who were unconscious saw something, more or less."

Yan remained calm and shook his head: "I really didn't see anything."

“Oh, I see.” Milo shrugged. “Then you should stay here and do your job, and try to find a new lamplighter as soon as possible.”

"What do you mean?" Yan glanced at Milo.

Milo waved his hand: "Goodbye, Rain Man."

After Milo left, Yan stood alone on the street, a cigarette dangling from his lips, in silence for a long time.

……

...

Meanwhile, at St. George's Hospital.

After nightfall, hospitals are always the first places in the city to quiet down.

Both patients and the injured need sufficient rest, and the doctors and nurses who have been busy all day also get a short break after dinner.

In the deserted corridor, a few scattered, irregular footsteps could be heard.

In the dimly lit intensive care unit, two unfamiliar figures were slowly approaching the ward at the far end of the corridor.

They smelled the scent of their kind wafting from that place.

Hunger, confusion, and chaos filled the already decaying brain with all sorts of distorted signals. Without guidance, they instinctively moved closer to that place.

……

The first to spot them were hospital caregivers.

"Gentlemen, this is the intensive care unit. Are you family members?"

"what!!!"

Screams echoed throughout the entire floor, shattering the tranquility that had just begun to settle in St. George's Hospital.

……

The duty officer in charge of guarding the ward responded immediately.

But they were still a step too slow.

The two stench-filled figures that rushed out of the corridor were incredibly fast. Before the law enforcement officers could even draw their muskets, they were both knocked off their feet, their heads slamming violently against the corridor wall, instantly rendering them unconscious.

The two figures, completely undisturbed, smashed through the ward door and stormed into Rebecca's room, located deep within the intensive care unit.

……

The alarm blared loudly.

In the corridor, the terrified caregiver huddled in a corner, trembling with shock, her hands covering her head. She didn't even dare to look up, and her legs were so weak that she didn't even have the strength to get up and run away.

She only heard some terrifying noises coming from the deepest ward.

"Bang!!"

"hiss……"

"Crack!!!"

There was a sound of walls being bombarded.

There was a sound of glass breaking.

There are also sharp roars that only human vocal cords can produce.

In addition, there was another chilling sound.

It sounded like the roar of some large wild beast, deep and resonant, almost indistinguishable from the sound of a train locomotive turning, shaking the entire floor of the intensive care unit.

……

This series of noisy and terrifying sounds lasted for three or four minutes.

The caregiver kept her head in her hands the whole time and didn't dare to move.

The kerosene lamp in Rebecca's hospital room had been overturned, and no one knew what was happening in the dark corner; all that could be heard were the muffled thuds of countless impacts...

...

……

Upon receiving the news after returning to the law enforcement office, Milo immediately went to St. George's Hospital.

He knew that some of Graki's servants must have escaped and were still hiding in Nanwei City, but he never expected that these lucky surviving monsters would target Rebecca.

"The damn thing."

How could Rebecca, who was seriously injured and still unconscious, possibly deal with fresh zombies?

……

However, when Milo arrived at the scene, he found his boss, Rebecca, lying unharmed in her hospital bed.

The rest of the ward looked like it had been run over by a train; everything was in a mess, with cracks all over the walls and floors, and cabinets and doors shattered everywhere.

Only Rebecca and her hospital bed remained intact.

Even the two colleagues guarding the entrance hadn't woken up yet.

……

Milo smelled a strong stench of decaying zombies at the scene, but saw no zombies in sight.

Just as he arrived, puzzled, something seemed to wriggle beneath the blanket covering Rebecca.

He immediately pulled out a crowbar and went forward to lift the blanket.

What appeared to be the head of a cute little black kitten was revealed from under the blanket.

It even gave Milo a sweet "meow".

……

"This……"
