Unusual Fate Records

Chapter 130 001. Inside Story
"Jingle Bell--"

Inside the European-style villa, a vintage telephone suddenly rang.

A large hand gripped the phone handle, and a deep voice said, "Moshi moshi."

Chi Xingluan's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Your Excellency, we're afraid our plan will have to be delayed again."

"Oh?" The man's voice was not very expressive; he simply waited quietly for what was to come.

"A person has emerged in Zuojing who can threaten our plans. Although this has opened a gap in the conservatives' forces, this person has also disrupted many of our operations."

"I see." The man's beard twitched. "Tell me more about it."

"The first time was when he destroyed our human flesh workshop. If it weren't for him, the canned supplies would probably already be on the assembly line by now, maintaining the supply without indiscriminate hunting or disturbing humans, and our plan to allow our troops to appear in the city undetected would have failed."

"Ah."

In fact, Red Star Mountain did not explain that if this new mass, which combines the infinitely regenerating cells of the Others with human flesh and blood, were to appear, the food source problem could be solved, and there would be no need to raise humans in captivity. In that case, there would be no point in humans covering the entire globe.

The current military-grade canned meat utilizes naturally occurring cancerous tumors in humans, which are then cultured to proliferate. However, the production cost is high, the meat quality is poor, and it is not produced by the White Walkers' armed forces going out to hunt on their own.

For nearly half a century, the White Walkers have been releasing numerous radioactive sources, inducing a surge in cancer and tumors, and research in this area has gradually matured. A breakthrough in this area would be a catastrophe for both races.

“The second one is the relic of the Great Demon of the Left Gate,” Chi Xingluan said. “We wanted to gain control of the living suit monster, a killing team that doesn’t need supplies, to make up for our lack of backup supplies. However, this person killed Zuo Qianzi, a descendant of the Left Gate, and the relic’s whereabouts have been unknown ever since.”

“That’s harmless,” the man said.

"The third time was when our Hell Apostles ambushed the Seven Deadly Sins of the Imperial Guards. This guy killed Aoyagi, but the Imperial Guards suffered heavy casualties, and this squad has been separated from the organization. Currently, due to the turmoil in Zuojingdu, many gangs are scrambling for power, and the security at the grassroots level is in grave danger."

"As long as your father is still alive, these things below will probably just be minor troubles," the man commented.

“Yes,” Chi Xingluan said. “So at times like this, we should definitely tear the hole wider and wider, making Dad extremely anxious.”

The man pondered for a moment and said, "Sometimes I don't even know if your father should be proud of you."

Chi Xingluan chuckled lightly, not responding to the question: "Next, we'll use that human to make the storm in this city even bigger."

"What are your thoughts, Luan Jun?" The man had already guessed what the other party was going to say, and consciously threw the topic to him.

"Your Excellency, I wish to dispatch new armed forces to take over the Otherworldly forces in Zuojingdu."

The man remained silent for a while, his finger covering the microphone adorned with three gemstone rings, his white beard twitching, but he did not utter a sound.

Chi Xingluan added, "I know you are worried that taking over now might be counterproductive, but now is also the time to seize the initiative. By replacing our people with our own while the city's defenses are weak, the takeover will be much smoother later."

"So what if Zuojing becomes a meat grinder?" the man asked in a deep voice.

Chi Xingluan chimed in, "How can you eat minced meat without a meat grinder?"

“I understand. It’s laughable that while the cabinet is still arguing, little do they know that Lord Luan has already grown into a true lion.”

"You are ridiculous."

"I can send troops, but in exchange for that hunter's head."

"Yes, but I'll need your help." Chi Xingluan's answer was crisp and decisive.

"it is good."

……

Metropolitan Police Department.

Busy staff members were organizing documents and presenting information on recent emergencies to the policewoman.

Fujiwara Chizuru nodded and took the document, carefully examining it.

"Chief..." Tanaka said softly, "Are you really going to take up a position in the Special Operations Section?"

Fujiwara rolled her eyes at him: "You've started calling me section chief now."

The big man seemed a little uneasy at this moment, and said, "But investigating this assassin might be dangerous."

This is a confidential document that came down from the department a few days ago, recruiting manpower from various agencies to establish a special operations section to target human assassins.

The meaning of the document is self-evident.

Tanaka looked worried, realizing that this was clearly aimed at the recent spate of White Walker hunters.

On one hand, they can even kill White Walkers, so why would they be afraid of humans? They are probably cold-blooded killers who don't care about the consequences of their own actions. On the other hand, assisting the White Walkers in hunting down humans has an inexplicable and ambiguous meaning.

Fujiwara Chizuru understood Tanaka's concerns, nodded, and pondered, "I know your concerns, but I also have my considerations. This is an opportunity, and I must seize it."

Opportunity? What kind of opportunity? A promotion and a raise, a stepping stone to a higher position?
Tanaka knew that Fujiwara wasn't that kind of woman, and besides, the potential dangers were more practical than fame and fortune.

"Section Chief, I support you, but shouldn't we consider this matter more carefully..." The kind-hearted man wanted to continue advising him.

Fujiwara stared intently at him and said, "Humans rarely have the opportunity to confront the White Walkers. By fighting against these people, we can truly see the world clearly and gain greater bargaining power in negotiations with the White Walkers. This is something we, who only lie in our offices, deal with traffic violations, and only handle civil disputes, will never be able to access."

"This..." Tanaka smiled wryly. He still felt that Fujiwara Chizuru's idea was a bit far-fetched. Although her ambition was commendable and it was in line with her heroism, reality was always a bit bitter.

From the perspective of the events themselves, they were helping the White Walkers capture humans.

Although the other side severely disrupted order and even caused heavy casualties among the White Walkers, it should be a cause for celebration.

But for them, this is not something to be thankful for.

They stand in opposition to humanity, with the menacing White Walkers watching from behind. Only by sacrificing themselves can they protect their wives and children.

But Chizuru Fujiwara seemed to have no such concerns, and like a free-spirited artist, she strode forward alone for her own ideals.

Tanaka longed to follow in her footsteps, which was different from Akasaka.

The other police officer who had a crush on Fujiwara had already given up.

"Section Chief." Tanaka looked up.

"No need to persuade me anymore, I've thought it through very clearly." Fujiwara Chizuru's reply has always been efficient and shrewd.

“No,” Tanaka explained, his gaze slowly hardening as he looked at Fujiwara’s face. He gave a deliberate salute and said, “Tanaka Igarashi, I’m applying to join the Special Operations Section!”

Keeping my promise, I will resume updates.
