Chapter 37 - Goto

Run into the woods and observe the opponent's attack patterns."

Under Mickey's command, Quan Xin fled into the woods nearby. Facing Miki's constant attacks, Quan Xin could only rely on trees to hide.

"Use the tree as a cover, move up, down, left and right, avoid its attacks, maintain a certain distance, and let the opponent adapt to our attack rhythm." It has to be said that Mickey's combat awareness is quite terrifying. Under its deliberate guidance, Sanmu's attack turned into a one-way horizontal slash.

"Just controlling two parasitic beasts is already very strenuous for the other party."

"Right now."

Suddenly, Izumi Shinichi approached Miki rapidly, passed through the opponent's tentacles, and chopped off Miki's head with one knife.

As his head was chopped off, Miki's body slowly knelt down with his back to Izumi Shinichi, and a large amount of blood gushed out from his neck.

Just when Izumi Shinichi thought the plan was successful.

Mickey said in disbelief: "How could this happen? It's actually possible."

The corpse with his back to Shinichi actually raised his right arm. Then, his right arm melted like liquid and gathered at his neck, forming a deformed flesh ball. Several eyes appeared on the surface of the flesh ball. He opened his mouth and said calmly, "Switch players."

At the same time, he said to the head on the ground: "Sanmu, come back."

"I'm so sorry." Miki's head bounced back to Goto's side like a ball.

"What a shame! I think you'd better stay on the right hand."

Miki didn't say anything, but merged with Goto's broken arm.

Seeing this, Mickey suddenly realized and said, "It can control the whole body in an instant and become a complete life form. It turns out that it is not three parasites. Just now, I sensed five consciousnesses from it, which means that there are five parasites in total in its body."

"There are actually five of them." Izumi Shinichi couldn't believe it.

Mickey continued, "The reason why I sensed three from it before was because it failed to unify the other parasites."

"That's right. Only Miki and I can command them, and only I can completely unify them into one." Goto turned and looked at Izumi Shinichi.

Mickey knew that now was not the time to sigh or be surprised. Facing the complete form of Goto, Izumi Shinichi didn't even have the ability to resist.

As expected, with Goto's agile movements, the forest that was originally used to restrain Miki became an environment that restricted Izumi Shinichi.

Just a few attacks left wounds on Izumi Shinichi.

At this time, Izumi Shinichi's only choice is to escape!

He fled to the road and happened to see a small pickup truck passing by. Mickey immediately extended his arm, grabbed the front of the pickup truck, and pulled Izumi Shinichi into the car.

Izumi Shinichi slumped in the carriage, gasping for breath. He was now almost exhausted.

"Damn it!" Just when he thought he could leave smoothly, he saw Goto running towards him with an expressionless face.

His speed was no less than that of the moving pickup truck. He could be seen getting closer and closer to the car until he was level with it.

Mickey didn't hesitate and launched an attack suddenly, but this failed to delay Goto.

The collision sound from behind the car immediately caught the driver's attention. Looking at Goto who looked like a monster through the rearview mirror, he said in shock: "This is 60 kilometers per hour. Is he a monster?"

Seeing the monster chasing him closely, the driver gritted his teeth and stepped on the accelerator to the bottom.

Seeing this, Goto stretched out his tentacles and hooked the railing next to the car.

Seeing this, Quan Shinichi became more and more anxious. If he let this guy get in the car, it would be the end.

Boom! A heavy truck came from the opposite direction and passed by the pickup truck. The front of the truck instantly knocked Goto away.

Izumi Shinichi thus escaped Goto's pursuit.

"He must have been sent by the Parasitic Beast Organization to kill me. Could it be that Xia Shang was also attacked?"

In the car, Quan Xinyi called Xia Shang.

...

"Goto shows up after all." Xia Shang murmured softly after hearing what happened to Izumi Shinichi.

"What did you say?"

"I said everything is fine here, you should be careful."

Xia Shang put away the phone, went to the window and looked out.

The number of people on the street is more than half of what it was before, and it looks a bit deserted.

A few days later.

The revenge of Parasyte gradually ceased, as if everything had returned to normal, but the atmosphere in Tokyo was still very depressing, as if an unprecedented storm was brewing.

At this time, Tamiya Yoshiko sent him a text message with very simple content.

"I have been found by the police. Please fulfill your promise."

Xia Shang had no intention of saving Tamiya Yoshiko. To be honest, with her strength, if she wanted to escape, the police would not be able to catch her at all.

This was her own choice. Perhaps she had sensed her final fate the moment her child was born.

In a park, Tamiya Yoshiko was wearing a white fishtail skirt and holding a sleeping baby in her arms. She looked at Izumi Shinichi in front of her and spoke slowly.

"I am the one who brought you here. Actually, I have something to say to you, but due to special reasons, I will keep it short."

"So far, I have killed a total of 38 people. I hunted them for food, but I can say that this number is relatively small among my companions... These days, I have done a lot of research and have been thinking about what we are to humans."

"What are humans to us? I have come to a conclusion that can be summed up in one sentence. We are all children of the earth. We were born because of you. You created me. Moreover, we are far more fragile than you think."

Izumi Shinichi couldn't understand what Tamiya Yoshiko said. He frowned and retorted: "What, what are you talking about? Stop teasing me."

"Do you know this person, Hirokawa Tsuyoshi?"

"Is it because of the environment?" Izumi Shinichi had seen Hirokawa Tsuyoshi on TV before. He was a popular candidate in the election and the policies he advocated were all related to the environment.

When Yoshiko Tamiya mentioned him, Shinichi Izumi immediately understood that Tsuyoshi Hirokawa was a member of the Parasyte Organization. When he thought about what Yoshiko Tamiya had just said, Shinichi Izumi instantly understood why the other party said that they and humans are both children of the Earth.

"Let me give you another piece of news. The man who's been chasing you these days is called Goto. Remember, don't fight him. If your opponent from the beginning was Goto instead of Miki, you would have died long ago.

Although he is one of the fragile companions I created through experiments, he is invincible. "

Such contradictory words made Quan Shinichi very confused.

Just when Tamiya Yoshiko wanted to say something, a group of police surrounded them, led by a man named Hirama.

Yoshiko Tamiya was not surprised to see the police.

She walked towards Izumi Shinichi. Seeing her unusual behavior, Mickey quickly reminded her, "Be careful and be ready to fight."

"Stop! Stop now!"

Tamiya Yoshiko ignored the police and continued walking towards Shinichi.

"Shoot!" In order to prevent further killings, Sheriff Hirama shouted loudly.

Following a few gunshots, to the surprise of Mickey and Izumi Shinichi, Tamiya Yoshiko did not dodge or block, but let the bullets pass through her body. Soon, blood flowers bloomed on her white clothes, which was a shocking sight.

"The baby in her arms is a human being, stop shooting."

Izumi Shinichi shouted at the police.

Hirama, who had dealt with a parasitic beast before, was surprised to see that Tamiya Yoshiko did not resist, so he told people to stop shooting.

Finally, Tamiya Yoshiko held the child and came to Izumi Shinichi.

She stared at Shinichi, and for some reason, in Shinichi's eyes, her face gradually overlapped with his mother's.

"I have been wondering why I was born into this world. After I solved one question, the next question came one after another. I kept searching for the origin and the end." Tamiya Yoshiko said, blood dripping down the hem of her skirt. "Maybe these are meaningless. It would be nice if I could stop."

"Even if you find the answer, you'll just feel, oh, that's how it is."

"However, today I solved another mystery. Shinichi, I didn't use this child for experiments in the end." Tamiya Yoshiko mentioned her child, her eyes gradually softened, and she handed the child to Shinichi: "He is just an ordinary human child."

"It is better to let humans raise human children."

Shinichi took the child from her and promised, "Okay, don't worry."

"Thank you." Tamiya Yoshiko smiled and fell backwards, as if all her restraints had been released.

The school gate of Xigao.

Xia Shang and Quan Shinichi stood there silently. They looked towards the classroom together without saying a word for a long time.

"She came to me before. She gave me the child's birth certificate and asked me to change the child's identity." Xia Shang suddenly said.

"In fact, she must have long been disgusted with this kind of life."

Quan Xinyi looked at Xia Shang and stretched out his right hand: "Give me the certificate, and my mother will adopt him."

Xia Shang carefully took out the folded birth certificate from his pocket and put it in his hand. Xia Shang smiled and said, "Maybe it's a good choice."

The death of Tamiya Yoshiko did not cause any commotion.

The police crackdown continues.

According to Fujita, the police found a criminal who was said to be able to identify parasitic beasts.

Xia Shang had some impression of this criminal. He seemed to be an antisocial person who had killed many people. He never expected that the police would cooperate with him. It was a bit ironic to think about it.

Just as he was about to go out for dinner, Fujita called him.

They have confirmed the location of the Parasyte headquarters, and they invited Izumi Shinichi and Xia Shang to participate in the police's final encirclement and suppression plan!

"Three days later? I will be there on time." Xia Shang hung up the phone with Fujita. It seemed that the real highlight was about to come.
