Is the end of science really metaphysics?

An hour later.
"cheers!"
"cheers!!"
"Welcome new team members!"
In a small tavern, Huo Tian laughed and patted Li Muhan on the back.
Li Muhan didn't like drinking, but on this occasion, he had to raise his glass together.
After Huo Tian woke up, he had to drag Li Muhan to the party. Also attending the party were three other members of the seventh team.
Yin Qi, a short-haired girl responsible for early intelligence investigation, Su Xue, a tall girl responsible for long-distance fire support, and Lin Ziyu, a young man responsible for equipment maintenance and logistics support.
These three people are all about the same age as Li Muhan, and they are all humans. In other words, Li Muhan is the only alien among them.
Chapter 17 Reasons to Join
Su Xue, a tall girl with light pink hair, came to sit next to Li Muhan with a wine glass. She had a proud figure and a delicate face.
Even though she is wearing business suit pants, her long legs are still very eye-catching.
"Li Muhan, I heard that you had a fight with the captain. Our captain has a cerebellum that develops faster than the brain and can only think about problems with his muscles. Don't hold a grudge against him."
"Little Taozi! Why are you talking!"
Although Huo Tian's face was red from drinking, he still heard what Su Xue said, and he started shouting in a loud voice.
Li Muhan guessed that the reason why she was called Su Xue Xiaotaozi might be because of her cute pink hair.
This party was considered a welcome party held by Team 7 for Li Muhan, and his strength was recognized by Huo Tian.
These team members seemed to trust Huo Tian very much, so they also accepted Li Muhan.
Li Muhan also learned that this team was currently in an awkward situation.
"Damn it! Why don't you assign us a mission!"
Huo Tian, who was already drunk, pounded the table and roared.
Lin Ziyu, the young man in charge of logistics, comforted him and warned his captain not to break the table. The team currently has very little funds left.
"Captain, if you continue to destroy things, you will really have no choice but to sell our team's classic car. Yin Qi, you too, don't just eat, talk about him."
Scout Yin Qi was relatively silent and didn't say a few words during the party. She was petite and wore a hat, making her look a bit like a child. Her big eyes would glance at Li Muhan from time to time.
This made Li Muhan a little confused.
"Our team's situation is somewhat special."
Su Xue looked at the drunk Huo Tian and said to Li Muhan with a wry smile.
"Generally, the members of a combat team are all combatants from the Special Management Bureau, but there will also be an outlier. This can reduce the combat pressure of the team, and if necessary, they will not be wiped out due to combat power reasons."
"Doesn't Captain Huo Tian hate aliens?"
Li Muhan asked.
Su Xue took a sip of wine, and a trace of bitterness flashed in her eyes.
"Yes, but he can't disobey the regulations of the Special Management Bureau."
"In other words, there has never been any alien member in Team 7?"
"It was there before."
This time it was Yin Qi who spoke, her voice as soft as a kitten's.
"But during an operation half a year ago, he betrayed us."
betray?
Li Muhan was slightly startled.
This word was familiar to him. Li Muhan had experienced countless betrayals since he was a child. Just recently, he was stabbed in the back by his childhood sweetheart, his ex-girlfriend Gu Ruoxi.
But he knew very well that the betrayal Yin Qi spoke of was definitely more painful than what he had experienced.
"That time it was just a simple investigation mission. A chaos-level alien was detected in an old factory and was not under supervision. Our team was responsible for going to investigate. Of course, the alien was also there with us. She was still ours at the time. companion."
Su Xue said in a calm tone.
"Everything went well. It was a vampire that had just woken up. It was confused about everything in this world. It had never hurt anyone. It was just hiding in an abandoned factory and shivering."
Hearing the vampire, Li Muhan was a little alert, and seemed to have seen his thoughts. Su Xue smiled and waved her hand.
"Don't worry, it has nothing to do with your guarantor. That vampire is very weak and belongs to a low-level vampire. We tried to make contact with her and calm her down. It was already fine. We were ready to take her away... ....”
Speaking of this, Amelia Su held the cup tightly with her hands, her eyes full of confusion and confusion.
"But our alien team member suddenly opened up her territory. She injured the captain and Yin Qi from behind, then fled the scene with the vampire. Her whereabouts are still unknown."
"The alien's defection was a very serious matter. All the responsibility was pinned on the captain. Our team has not been on a serious mission since then. We have only assisted the police in completing some trivial cases that have nothing to do with aliens. And the defected alien has never appeared in our sight again."
"The captain never gave up on searching for him. After that, he refused any aliens to join him. The phrase he kept saying was, 'Aliens are beasts, they are unlikely to really help humans.'"
"So, Li Muhan, if in the subsequent actions, the captain says or does something very egregious to you, don't take it to heart. It will be difficult for us to get out of that shadow."
"It doesn't have to be this way."
As a result, Huo Tian, who was supposed to be drunk, pushed Lin Ziyu away and said to Li Muhan.
"We are in the Special Management Bureau, a job that requires us to work on the edge of a knife. Don't be so hypocritical. This is not a mutual aid association. Everyone has a past."
He looked at Su Xue, Lin Ziyu and Yin Qi.
"You have no right to ask Li Muhan to be tolerant of anyone. You have also read his information. Should he just swallow his anger?"
Then he looked at Li Muhan again and said.
"I looked down on you before and thought you were just a little brat. I apologize if we ever have a disagreement again in the future."
He clenched his fists, shook them in front of Li Muhan, laughed heartily a few times, and then said.
"We are all men, and we use this to solve the problem."
Li Muhan also smiled and said half-jokingly.
"Okay, Captain Huo, we haven't finished yet, how about we continue?"
Huo Tian’s smile froze and he quickly waved his hands.
"Get lost, I can't beat you now! Show me some respect."
Li Muhan was speechless. Captain Huo Tian's expression changed faster than turning the pages of a book.
After the party, Su Xue and Yin Qi left together, while Li Muhan helped Lin Ziyu help the drunk Huo Tian into the car.
"Mu Han, could you please come with me to send the captain back first, and then I can send you home."
Lin Ziyu said.
The child, who was younger than himself and might have just turned eighteen, looked at Li Muhan timidly.
Li Muhan knew that he was afraid of his identity as a devil.
So he smiled and nodded.
Because he guessed that Lin Ziyu must have something to say to him, otherwise he would not let him get in the car.
Sure enough, Lin Ziyu said as soon as the car started.
"You must be wondering why our captain hates aliens so much."
"Indeed, I am a little curious."
Lin Ziyu said with a wry smile while driving.
"Our captain used to be the chief of Tianhai City Police Department."
This surprised Li Muhan a little. He didn't expect that Huo Tian was such a big shot.
"He has been in the Special Management Bureau for five years. He has been training very hard since the first day he joined the bureau. He almost lost his life several times. By the way, I heard these things from others. After all, I hadn't joined the bureau at that time."
Lin Ziyu scratched his head embarrassedly, and Li Muhan reminded him not to drive with one hand.
So Lin Ziyu continued.
"Don't look at Captain Huo Tian like this now. He used to have a family. He had a wife and a son. His son even became a policeman with the best grades in the school."
Although Huo Tian looks strong, he is actually in his fifties.
So Li Muhan found him even more incredible. What was the purpose of him trying so hard to join the combat unit at this age?
But he had a vague feeling that he would soon get the answer from Lin Ziyu's mouth.
Lin Ziyu glanced at Huo Tian through the rearview mirror and found that he was sleeping soundly and snoring, so he continued.
"But just five years ago, before he joined the Special Management Bureau, a shocking series of missing girls occurred in Tianhai City. The victims were all young female college students or white-collar workers who had just started working. The police attached great importance to this matter."
"The captain couldn't sleep all night because of the case. In the end, he actually found a clue. All the clues pointed to a taxi driver named Zhou Zhiguo."
Li Muhan didn't say anything. He sat in the co-pilot seat and listened quietly to Lin Ziyu telling about the past.
Huo Tian had just become the director that year and had a bright future. It was extremely painful for him to see such an incident happen in his jurisdiction.
He neglected his appetite and worked all night to sort out clues. With the help of everyone in the team, he finally locked the target on a taxi driver named Zhou Zhiguo. Just when he was about to close the net.
However, a call from the provincial department warned him not to investigate the matter any further and that someone would resolve the incident.
Although he was very unhappy, Huo Tian still suppressed his inner restlessness and asked everyone in the department not to interfere in this matter anymore.
There was only one person who strongly opposed it, and that was Huo Tian’s son, a trainee police officer who had just reported to the criminal police team.
Because of this, Huo Tian had a big quarrel with his son, and they ended up parting on bad terms.
That is, early the next morning.
Huo Tian received bad news.
His son died in an abandoned warehouse with his internal organs removed.
And that ruin was exactly where they planned to close their net.
"After that, Captain Huo Tian completely collapsed. He went to find Zhou Zhiguo with a gun more than once, and in the end he even lost his job. The strangest thing is that all the missing girls came back overnight, and they seemed to have been brainwashed and didn't remember anything."
Having said that, Lin Ziyu turned and looked at Li Muhan.
"You should know who did it."
"Special Administration."
Li Muhan said it without hesitation.
"That's right. The Special Management Bureau intervened in this matter and found the missing girl, but there was no evidence to prove that these things were done by Zhou Zhiguo. In the end, they could only strengthen the control over him, and the matter ended there."
"But for Captain Huo Tian, this is just the beginning."
Li Muhan said.
Lin Ziyu nodded.
"The second month after he lost his job, the Special Management Bureau found the captain and informed him that his son had died at the hands of aliens, but they could not prove that Zhou Zhiguo was the one who did it."
Having said that, Li Muhan already understood the answer to the question he had asked Huo Tian before.
Why join the Special Management Bureau?
He wanted to avenge his child with his own hands.
"Don't think too narrowly of the captain. Revenge is one thing, of course, but after learning about the existence of that monster, the captain felt that as a former police officer, he must shoulder the responsibility of protecting the people, so he resolutely joined the Special Management Bureau and made himself a combatant who can use the realm."
Always remember, there will be reverberations.
Perhaps only someone with such obsession could pass that special training that is almost like hell.
At this moment, Huo Tian, who had been sleeping in the back seat, slowly opened his eyes, and a rare sadness flashed in his eyes.
