Trickster Hunter.

Chapter 31 Tai Sui
"Is this the ability you gained after being infected by the monster?" Sun Hang asked.

"...The saints said that if you eat Tai Sui Ye's flesh... you can live longer and be immune to all diseases..." the girl said in a very small voice, "If you get injured, you will recover quickly..."

"Tai Sui Ye? Do you call that thing Tai Sui?" Sun Hang entered the term in the search bar again, but apart from some ancient legends that had nothing to do with strange creatures, there was no related information at all.

“……”The girl nodded again.

"Have you ever seen Tai Sui?"

The girl shook her head.

"So, have all the people in your organization eaten Tai Sui meat?" Sun Hang asked again, "After eating it, can it really prolong one's life and prevent all diseases? Has anyone died immediately after eating it?"

"No...no." This time the girl shook her head very quickly.

"Are you sure it's not there and not that you didn't see it? Also, since you know that Tai Sui is a weird creature, why do you dare to eat it?" Sun Hang couldn't help but doubt whether these people's brain circuits were normal. However, from the performance of this girl, it was obvious that she knew what weird creatures and infected people were. Then why would she accept all this so happily?

Since she knew how the Weird Research Institute treated the infected, she couldn't be unaware of the ridiculously high mortality rate after humans were infected with the Weird Virus, right?

Sun Hang has looked up relevant information. The mortality rate of humans infected with the strange virus is 78%, and the probability of being assimilated by strange creatures is 21.7%. Only % of people maintain their human self-awareness.

The probability of getting a Trick Hunter among the infected is lower than the probability of getting an SSR in a card-drawing 2D mobile game.

It's impossible that an entire cult organization is made up of only SSRs, right?
How can the Bureau of Anomalous Investigation and the Institute of Weird Things put their faces?
"Tai Sui Ye is different from other strange creatures..." the girl said, "I have personally seen people with terminal illnesses whose lesions disappeared immediately after eating Tai Sui Ye's meat... There are also some people with congenital disabilities who ate Tai Sui Ye's meat, and their missing limbs grew back soon..."

"This Tai Sui, can it have such an effect?" Sun Hang couldn't help but frowned and put the muzzle of the gun against the girl's forehead, "Then if I smash your head to pieces, can you still grow a new one?"

"Don't... don't kill me!" However, the girl just closed her eyes in fear. "I've told you everything I know. You... can't... don't kill me!"

Sun Hang glanced at her and silently noted in his heart: "Tai Sui" infected people have extremely strong self-recovery abilities, but the head may be their fatal weakness.

According to the girl's description, this "Tai Sui" is obviously a panacea for curing diseases and saving lives, rather than a weird creature that brings disaster to the world...

Do those infected people who have eaten "Tai Sui meat" really not have to pay any price?
Sun Hang carefully looked at the girl in front of him, and then asked another question: "Do you often not have enough food?"

"Ah? No...no." The girl was a little confused about this question.

Since malnutrition is not caused by hunger, the girl's pale and thin appearance is obviously abnormal... Since "Tai Sui meat" has such magical effects that it can even cure terminal illnesses, then digestive system diseases are certainly no problem - in this way, the possibility of pathological malnutrition can be ruled out.

Is it because of eating "Tai Sui meat"?
Sun Hang pulled the girl up from the ground and said, "Come on, take me to find them... If the 'Tai Sui Ye' you mentioned is really that magical, not only will the institute not arrest you, but it might even give you a 'Special Contribution Award'."

……

The girl said nothing and took Sun Hang upstairs, which made Sun Hang frown slightly. Although his pistol was equipped with a silencer, he was firing in the corridor after all, and the gunshots could be heard by the whole building. In addition, he had spent so much time questioning the girl... If the girl's accomplice was really in this building, he would have been ready and waiting for him to come to his door, right?

No, that's not right.

Sun Hang thought again, if the other party discovered that he was being followed after entering the building, then it meant that this building was their base. However, Sun Hang did not smell any "smell" of other strange creatures or infected people except this girl.

At first, Sun Hang thought that the person who ambushed him might not be infected, but after asking those questions, Sun Hang decisively ruled out this possibility.

The girl's status in this cult organization should not be high. Even if the location of the tattoo is not taken into account, being sent out to do food procurement means that she is at most a mid-level member. Even mid-level members can get "Tai Sui meat", so the backbone of the organization cannot be infected.

Moreover, only after experiencing the "magical effect" of "Tai Sui meat" will the members of the organization be likely to follow the "saint" wholeheartedly... The saint himself and the senior cadres of the organization may not be infected, but roles such as "thugs" and "secretaries" who need loyalty guarantees are definitely infected!
The girl was acting. She discovered early on that she was being followed, and then deliberately led Sun Hang here.

But her purpose was not to ambush Sun Hang, but to escape.

"They are not here." Sun Hang said to the girl walking in front.

The girl's body trembled.

"You are lying." Sun Hang said again.

"No...I didn't."

"You never intended to take me to find them from the beginning." Sun Hang's tone was very calm, and it seemed that there was no emotion at all.

"..." The girl didn't answer, but she didn't turn around either. She just stood on the stairs, with her back to Sun Hang, motionless.

"At first I couldn't figure out how you were going to escape, but after knowing your ability, I suddenly realized that the rooftop is not a dead end for you." Sun Hang said word by word, "You planned to jump off the building to escape... As long as your head is not smashed, no matter how serious the trauma to your body is, it can be recovered under the effect of the 'Taisui Meat'. And if I want to catch you, I can only go back along the stairs. By that time, you will have already recovered your ability to move, or you will have been picked up by your accomplices who heard the noise, right?"

As soon as Sun Hang finished saying this, the girl immediately started running away. Unfortunately, she hadn't taken two steps when gunshots were heard behind her.

The bullet went straight into her waist. The unbearable pain distorted the girl's face. She fell down the stairs, screaming and rolling down. She rolled all the way to Sun Hang's feet and stopped only when Sun Hang stepped on her.

"I may not kill you, but I can't guarantee that I won't torture you." Sun Hang said lightly.

The ability to not die unless you get a headshot is indeed very powerful, but from another perspective, this ability is actually a debuff...

Because she can't die, she can experience things that are more painful than death.
