Trickster Hunter.

Chapter 82 Old Scars

At this moment, a yawning voice suddenly came from the co-pilot: "Heh...what's going on? I just closed my eyes for a little while, and you can quarrel with others over a small amount of money?"

"Captain Gong, I don't want to quarrel with anyone. It's that someone insisted on going out at this time. I asked him to go to the neighborhood management department to apply for a travel permit, but he argued with me that his cell phone had no signal... This guy even planned to use his identity to pressure me!" The young temporary sheriff complained quickly to his sleepy senior who had just climbed out of the passenger seat.

"Identity? Ah?" The middle-aged sheriff rubbed his eyes, first glanced at Sun Hang standing outside the car window, and then looked at the villa area behind Sun Hang. His pupils shrank twice in an instant.

"Young man... do you live here?" the middle-aged sheriff asked, pointing to the villa behind.

"Ah." Sun Hang gave an affirmative answer.

The middle-aged sheriff's face suddenly turned even paler.

"I'm sorry, I'm new here today and I'm not familiar with the conditions in each neighborhood. I accidentally bumped into you... Ah, I don't think it caused any trouble to your work, did I?"

"No, I'm just going out for a walk." Sun Hang shook his head.

"That's good, that's good... This is all my fault. I stayed up all night last night and couldn't hold on any longer this morning. I took a nap and didn't expect this to happen. I'm so sorry!" In the confused eyes of the young temporary sheriff, the middle-aged sheriff patted his head vigorously, "Why don't you drive quickly?"

"But, Captain Gong..."

"But what buts!" the middle-aged sheriff cursed in a low voice, "Do you know how serious this matter is? Drive quickly, I will explain it to you later!"

The pickup truck was started again. Sun Hang noticed that after driving more than ten meters, the speed of the pickup truck suddenly increased, and it drove away from the neighborhood almost as if it was running away.

He could clearly feel that the biggest emotion in the look in the middle-aged sheriff's eyes when he looked at him was fear.

Sun Hang suddenly recalled the attitude of Captain Huang and the sheriffs who were with him towards the hunters during the Bloody Mary incident.

Although Yang Qi once vowed to Sun Hang that this society is willing to accept hunters who are infected, it is obvious that her words cannot represent the attitude of the general public.

"It's okay to be afraid, but at least I won't say stupid things like that committee member did last time."

Sun Hang put his hands in his pockets and walked along the sidewalk.

Since the daily necessities for monster hunters are provided free of charge by the institute, there are no commercial facilities like those in ordinary residential areas nearby. Sun Hang walked for nearly three kilometers before he saw a small supermarket at an intersection.

To his slight surprise, the door of this small supermarket was actually open.

According to the temporary management measures introduced by the Disaster Countermeasures Committee, at the beginning of the Eternal Night, when mass panic and chaos are most likely to break out, not only are all citizens restricted from traveling, but all kinds of production and commercial activities are also suspended, and the entire city has entered a state of "suspension of work and shutdown."

Sun Hang walked over with some confusion - in addition to being curious about why this supermarket was open, he also wanted to purchase some supplies.

Yesterday, Wang Xiyi alone finished up half of Sun Hang's refrigerator, especially Sun Hang's favorite flavor of potato chips, leaving not a single bag for him.

When Sun Hang got closer, he discovered the reason why this supermarket was still open - it had been transformed into a temporary material transfer station. Cardboard boxes of all sizes filled the space between the shelves. Several staff members from the street management department were holding several thick lists of materials and doing inventory work.

A soldier from the city defense guard was sitting behind the cash register, with his helmet and pump-action shotgun on the counter. When he saw Sun Hang approaching, he immediately raised his gun and shouted, "Who is it?"

"I'm from the Weird Research Institute." Sun Hang said. In order to avoid any misunderstanding, he took the initiative to show his ID this time.

After seeing the "Hunter's License", the soldier showed a trace of panic: "Hunter?!"

When he shouted, everyone else stopped what they were doing and turned to look over here.

"Hunter? Why is a hunter here?" A man who looked like an official walked over quickly and asked in a nervous tone, "Excuse me, is there a strange creature around here?"

"No, I just..." Sun Hang wanted to say that he was out for a walk, but after thinking about it, he changed his words and said, "It's just a routine patrol."

"call……"

As soon as these words were spoken, one could clearly feel that this group of people all breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

"By the way, can we buy the things here?" Sun Hang asked, "I'm not talking about these supplies, I'm talking about the things on the shelves."

"That's the property of the supermarket owner, but he's still at home. We've only temporarily requisitioned the supermarket as a material transfer station. In theory, we have no right to touch these things." The cadre said, "But hunters have the right to requisition them. Afterwards, there will be a special aftermath department to help you pay the bill or make corresponding compensation."

"Well, that's not necessary. I have money and I can pay." Sun Hang took a can of Fanta from the refrigerator and said.

However, after he said it, he immediately regretted it.

He didn't have any cash on him, and the payment QR code on the counter was completely useless as the entire city was without Internet access.

The cadre was very observant and seeing Sun Hang holding a soda in one hand and a cell phone in the other, with a slightly embarrassed look on his face, he immediately took out a five-yuan bill from his pocket and placed it under the QR code sign.

"Consider this drink as my treat. You patrol the city all day long and it must be very tiring," the official said with a smile.

"Uh...thank you very much." Sun Hang did not refuse the kindness. He opened the pull ring and took a sip.

Sun Hang realized that, unlike the others present, this cadre was not afraid of him. The reason he was nervous before was entirely because he was worried that there were strange creatures in the nearby area.

This guy is quite abnormal - when he is with Sun Hang, he behaves like he is with a normal person, and this is the biggest abnormality.

It would be understandable if it was people in the investigation bureau or research institute who were in constant contact with strange creatures and infected people, or if it was disciplined soldiers in the army, but it was still a bit strange for staff in a grassroots management department like this to be able to do this.

Just as Sun Hang was curious, a scene that he had never seen in his memory suddenly appeared in front of his eyes - in a burning ruin, a wounded man fell to the ground and kept retreating. Not far away from him, a huge mask floating in the air with fire spewing from its mouth was gradually approaching.

Just when the tongue of fire from the mouth of the monster mask was about to sweep over the man, a figure covered with scales and wings on his back suddenly fell from the sky and tore the monster mask in half!
The young cadre holding the list of supplies suddenly stumbled, and Sun Hang immediately reached out to support him.

"Ah... I, I'm fine," he smiled awkwardly, "I just felt a little dizzy just now. It might be because I haven't eaten for a long time and my blood sugar is a little low."

Sun Hang discovered that there was a large old scar on the skin inside his collar, at the base of his neck. Judging from the appearance of the scar, it was probably caused by a burn.

What I just saw was his memory scene?
