Quick Transmigration and Childbirth: The Target is Not Human

"This is the CCTV footage from Changcheng Road dated August 5th."

"The other one is a video recorded by a passerby on August 9th in Xibaipo."

「这一份是8月10号晚、8月14号晚，8月15号晚，被救者们的自述录音，他们都声称是一个肌肉健壮的黑色人形怪物拯救了他们。」

"This is a full-body portrait of the 'Hidden One' drawn by a portrait artist based on eyewitness descriptions."

The police officer opposite her, who identified himself as Jiang, seemed to have come prepared. He spoke calmly and slowly, placing the pieces of "evidence" in front of her one by one.

Xia Yangyang simply picked up the last portrait and gently rubbed the paper with her thumb.

The monster above has distinctly female characteristics, its entire body covered in black flesh, making it look like a lone ranger under the moonlight.

She looked surprised: "Wow, what's a Hidden One?"

"That's the code name the bureau gave to this monster that's good at saving people."

Xia Yangyang put the paper back, along with the large pile of materials in front of her, her bright eyes blinking:

"Is this some kind of movie being filmed, officer? You're making it sound so real!"

Unexpectedly, the next second, he was hit with a heavy blow.

"You're the one who's been hidden, aren't you?"

The police officer smiled slightly, but his eyes were as sharp as a hawk's, as if he could see right through her disguise and into her heart.

Time seemed to be paused, and in an instant, the wind stopped and the clouds stood still.

The little calico girl, hiding in the chandelier, propped herself up and twitched the tips of her ears.

Xia Yangyang realized what was happening, her face full of confusion: "Huh? What?"

He was not fooled by her pretense, and when he spoke again, there was even a hint of helplessness in his tone.

"Ms. Xia, here are three more pieces of crucial and direct evidence. Would you like to see them again?"

Xia Yangyang's gaze fell on the bag in his hand: "..."

What are we supposed to do?

Once it's confirmed that she is the Hidden One, then what?

Reward them for their contributions? Or capture them and use them for live experiments?

During her silence, the police officer pressed the recorder button: "This is your colleague, Ms. Guo Jingjing's, accusation against you for your behavior."

A familiar female voice came from inside—

[Yes! It's Xia Yangyang's damn black cat! It suddenly turned into a disgusting, worm-like thing, crawling all over my face... It was so black I couldn't tear it off, and it even went into my nostrils and ear canals—*pfft*.]

Xia Yangyang turned off the recording and smiled, "Officer Jiang, does this person have a grudge against me? She's slandering me; there's absolutely no truth to it."

Officer Jiang seemed to have anticipated her actions and readily accepted her excuse.

The auxiliary police officer next to him handed over a video camera. He took it with his left hand and stretched out his long arm to hand it to Xia Yangyang.

That long, strong hand was encased in a pair of black leather gloves.

"This is a video recorded by our professional undercover agents. We are truly sorry for setting such a trap, but how could we have obtained your DNA match results if we hadn't done so?"

Xia Yangyang watched the video carefully. The video was high-definition and captured every swift movement of her killing the parasite.

Moreover, the camera captured the monster's face directly.

She racked her brains and finally figured out which day it happened by looking at the surroundings.

This angered her. Firstly, her goodwill had been exploited by despicable means and turned into a weapon against her.

Secondly, what was the true intention behind devising a method of having a living person devoured by a parasitic species to lure her into a trap?

"Of course, if you deny even this, we also have the most direct evidence, which is the video that first raised our suspicions about you."

His fingertip slid across the screen.

A surveillance video from the elevator was played above.

The person in the video is carrying a large bag of meat into the elevator, and the moment she turns around, a thick black tentacle is strangely hanging behind her, with another bag of meat dangling from it.

The person in the video simply walked back like that, seemingly unaware of anything happening.

Xia Yangyang's eyes widened; she still remembered this incident.

She was standing at her front door when, to make it easier to unlock the door, she placed the meat on the ground to one side. When she opened the door to pick up the meat, the meat on the ground had turned from one bag into two bags.

She was surprised at the time, but assumed that the bags on top were pressing down on the ones below and that she hadn't noticed them when she moved them.

So they didn't bother with it anymore.

Now it seems...

Don't be angry, don't be angry, don't be angry.

She was just feeling down because she had been very careful, always deleting all the surveillance footage after dealing with the parasites.

How did the police determine that the monster was hers?

It turned out to be the case.

The video has finished playing.

Under the determined gaze of the two police officers, Xia Yangyang calmed down, proving that those with nothing to lose are not afraid of those wearing shoes.

Her beautiful eyes were bright as she returned the video camera, insisting on her denial: "Even though you're a police officer, if you keep doing this, I'll sue you for spreading rumors."

"..."

The girl opposite was as troublesome as a hedgehog, her defenses were so thick that even an atomic bomb couldn't penetrate them.

In an instant, all the coercive tactics anticipated by the bureau became ineffective.

The auxiliary police officer glanced at his boss, unsure of what to do.

After a long while, a sigh rang out between the three of them.

"I know what you're worried about," Jiang Yan said, softening his tone.

When he looked at the girl again, the sharp features of his face had lost much of their imposing aura.

"We would never do anything to harm you, and we and our team will do everything we can to protect your privacy and safety."

"..."

"We have found you for only one purpose: to ask for your help."

"..."

The girl opposite him narrowed her eyes, like a wary little raccoon.

She stroked her chin, seemingly pondering whether his words were the truth or if he was trying to trick her again.

Jiang said, "Parasitic species and alien invasions are not a big taboo for us. On the contrary, the country has long discovered the existence of supernatural deaths and has been working on maintaining social order and handling the aftermath."

After he said that, the one who reacted the most was not Xia Yangyang, but the auxiliary police officer next to him, whose eyes widened in disbelief.

"This... Captain Jiang, this can't be..."

He secretly tugged at the boss's pants with one hand.

Is this something you can just say?! Without even knowing whether the other party is friend or foe?!

What if she goes to tip off the parasites and moves them all away?

Jiang Yan ignored the auxiliary police officer's frantic, hushed hints.

Although in Xia Yangyang's eyes, this was no different from an explicit hint.

As the girl shook her head repeatedly, Jiang Yan pulled the photo out of the folder, placed it on the table, and pushed it in front of her.

"This is our mission objective in City A, codenamed 'Glutton'."

Xia Yangyang couldn't help but glance at the auxiliary police officer, who was pinching his philtrum and looked like he was about to faint.

Why is it a little funny?

The oppressive atmosphere dissipated somewhat by chance, and a sense of relaxation crept in.

She picked up the photo, and as she looked at it closely, her facial expression became distorted with unease.

This is a disgusting monster that can only appear in the world of anime.

The creature in the photo has the benevolent face of Buddha, but its body is so large that it resembles a small, raised hill.

From head to bottom, it was all made up of densely packed human faces, with sticky fat between the faces, and the bodies were shiny as if they had been coated with lard.

What was pressed under the flesh were feet as short as a Tyrannosaurus Rex's forelimbs.

As she looked at the photos, Jiang Yan's voice was slightly deep, like a narrator slowly explaining something on television, but his dark eyes remained fixed on the girl's face.

"The Glutton is extremely adept at disguise and very cautious. It is the most ferocious parasite species on record. It consumes twenty to thirty times more food than ordinary parasites and is keen to devour an entire human family and students in a school dormitory, then disguises it as a fire, a vendetta, a cult, or a mass suicide."

"It took us five years to find conclusive evidence to classify mass deaths with similar characteristics across the country as supernatural deaths."

In our recent face-to-face confrontation, we paid a heavy price, but we also discovered a pattern in his modus operandi. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, his next target will be City A.

"..."

"With great power comes great responsibility. I sincerely hope to receive your help so that gluttons will not devour any more people."

Jiang Yan's voice was deep and powerful, each word seemingly dug out from the depths of his heart.

His gaze was firm, like a clear mirror, staring directly at Xia Yangyang without the slightest evasion or hesitation.

As if trying to escape, Xia Yangyang shifted her gaze away from the photo and instead focused on the water glass beside her.

This is undoubtedly an extremely terrifying parasite.

It has mutated beyond recognition.

If the task of reproduction has been completed, she will definitely help without hesitation, even at the cost of her life.

But will she survive?

It wasn't easy for her to get here. Even a clay bodhisattva crossing the river can barely save himself, so how could she dare to take a step that requires so much worry?

A complex expression of hesitation and decisiveness flickered across her face. Finally, she handed the photo back with both hands.

"Excuse me, officer, I really don't understand what you're saying. If you're really making a movie or documentary, I think you'd be a very dedicated actor."

The two officers exchanged pleasantries for a while before getting up and leaving.

Before leaving, Officer Jiang suddenly sat back down, took out a pen, and left a piece of paper with a string of numbers on it on the table.

He clicked the pen cap back on and looked up at her.

"I've changed my mind. You can contact me anytime."

"I don't think it's necessary," Xia Yangyang said.

Officer Jiang raised an eyebrow and casually tapped his pen twice: "Snakes, lizards, foxes, crocodiles—these are all controlled animals. Did you register them with the local police station before keeping them?"

"……without."

Speaking of this, Xia Yangyang's face was filled with resentment.

"Also, regarding your debt, the reward for eliminating major terrorists who threaten society is either 500,000 or 1 million, I can't quite remember. I think we can discuss this further sometime in the future; perhaps you'll be interested?"

"..."

The auxiliary police officer standing outside the door was stunned.

This... this works?
