"According to the latest reports... a fourth case of Ajin has been discovered in Japan, and its identity has been confirmed as high school student Kei Nagai..."

Wang Bai looked at the news broadcast on the TV screen and realized the current time.

In the original world, because he boiled water with wet hands after taking a shower, the water droplets on his hands accidentally touched the electrical outlet, causing him to be electrocuted and die.

He proved the meaning of "public welfare" by sacrificing himself.

Do not touch the power strip with wet hands.

Just when Wang Bai thought his life was over, he heard gasps of surprise from those around him. He saw a group of people speaking Japanese pointing and whispering at him from a distance.

He opened his eyes and saw his body constantly reassembling under a kind of black particle, and in less than a second his body was completely intact.

The police arrived at the scene and arrested him. Before he could even settle into his chair, he was taken away by some unknown organization.

What followed was a hellish experience.

Three days later, he was rescued by a man who called himself Sato, and all the information he had about this world came from him.

According to the information Sato provided, Wang Bai knew that he had transmigrated to the world of demi-humans.

In a world where humans can be immortal, there are also special individuals among these immortal humans who can generate "IBM" (Black Ghost), which is invisible to ordinary people.

Seeing that the Chinese boy in front of him hadn't reacted for a long time, Sato sat backwards on the chair and clapped his hands to attract Wang Bai's attention.

"How about it, friend? Want to join us and fight for a peaceful life?"

Wang Bai gave irrelevant answers to Sato's questions.

"Oh, I didn't expect you to speak Chinese! At first I thought you were Japanese, then I found out you were British, and now it seems you might be mixed race?"

Sato frowned slightly. Instead of answering his question, she was asking him a question?

This is not a good sign.

Even so, Sato still answered Wang Bai's question:

"Well, I am indeed of mixed race. My father is British and my mother is Chinese. In a way, we are fellow countrymen. That's how we should address our compatriots overseas in China."

Wang Bai found Sato's answer surprisingly down-to-earth and responded with amusement:

"It's true what you say, but I'm just an ordinary college student. I'm really not good enough for you."

The man in front of me, Sato, is practically a god of death in the original work.

As an ordinary person, this person was a top-notch special forces soldier, and after becoming a demi-human, he brought out the demi-human characteristics to the fullest.

If Sato, the killing machine, hadn't always maintained a carefree attitude towards life and ultimately given Nagai Kei, whom he recognized as a fellow "player," a chance, he probably would have run off to other countries and never been caught.

"Speaking of which, how long are you going to keep me tied up? Is this some kind of special play you're planning?"

Again.

This is a problem that doesn't fit the current context.

Sato was now certain that even after being tortured by the government research institution for three days, the other party had not lost their 'reason' or 'self'.

Sato recalled the process of investigating this young Chinese man.

While the boy was being studied by the research institute, Sato mobilized considerable resources to search for information about him.

However, the identity of this Chinese boy seems to have been concealed by some force.

Sato tried every means possible but couldn't find the other party's identity. The information leaked from the research institute also didn't contain any information about the boy, as if he had appeared out of thin air.

The only available video footage is from a nearby surveillance camera when the other party fled the scene after the accident.

As for the content of the video...

How to put it? It was exactly the way an ordinary person would panic and run away.

Do people like this really have the ability to cover up their past?

Well, let's take it slow, after all...

Sato looked at the television screen, where an Ajin named Nagai Kei was continuously broadcasting news.

Now he has another new "work" waiting to be polished.

Wang Bai observed Sato's expression as he looked up at the television; the other man's expression changed very little, almost not at all.

However, since his resurrection, his senses have become much more sensitive, and he can easily detect changes in Sato's face.

Based on his appearance in the original Ajin manga, Wang Bai understood that Sato's interest in him was rapidly waning.

In the world of demi-humans, as a demi-human, you either need to carefully conceal your identity, or you need to possess powerful individual combat abilities like Sato.

Instead of fleeing, they planned to launch an attack on the entire national institutions, and Sato actually succeeded.

The option of concealing his identity was no longer feasible. Wang Bai's naked escape video had already spread online, and it was even initially turned into a parody video before being removed by government agencies.

This was the only thing that Wang Bai could be thankful for, given the disgusting nature of this world's government agencies.

Because of this incident, if given the chance in the future, Wang Bai will consider making those high and mighty guys die a little easier.

However, being experimented on is not without its benefits. At least now Wang Bai has a very high pain tolerance and can cut off his own neck without hesitation to reset his physical condition.

That alone is enough to surpass the performance of 99.9% of ordinary people.

After realizing that he could commit suicide without hesitation, Wang Bai felt that demi-humans and ordinary people were completely different species.

The ending of the original Ajin manga, where everyone goes their separate ways into the future, might just be the calm before the storm.

After all, if a person cannot even be bound by death, how could they possibly be bound by anything else?

Perhaps a small number of people will be able to abide by social order and maintain universal values ​​even after becoming demi-humans, based on their own moral values.

But that's only a small minority. Eventually, the demi-human group will inevitably become the antithesis of all humanity.

Therefore, Wang Bai needed to make preparations early.

His appearance is now known to the public, and the only hope he can have is to improve his individual combat skills. The most efficient choice now is to become a strongman like Sato, so as to maintain a relatively normal life.

"Hey, Sato, how about we play a hostage rescue game?"

Wang Bai spoke towards Sato's direction:

"For example—rescuing Kei Nagai, who's also an Ajin in the news?"

Sato paused, not because of the hostage game the boy in front of him had mentioned.

Although he was interested, what interested him even more was—

From the moment he started talking to the boy, he hadn't told him his name.

But the other party recognized him at a glance, and could accurately state his personal information beforehand.

What exactly are this boy's sources of information?

Who exactly is the other party?

For a time, even the news report about the new Asian man, Kei Nagai, failed to capture Sato's interest.

Sato gradually became excited. A non-existent person, a person who knew his own information—these two characteristics combined were just like a player discovering a hidden quest with rich rewards.

Sato controlled his emotions as much as possible and gave Wang Bai a fairly standard smile.
