598 Robber (2/2)

”Did she predict danger? Or is it something else?” He stared at Almon's purple pupils and pondered before talking in a loud voice immediately afterwards, ”The third question… Have there been any unusual things happening during the night here? For example, missing people or the discovery of a man-eating monster or something along those lines?!”

”You…”

Fang Yuan discovered that her pupils contracted once the question was asked and was elated.

However the other party was panic-struck. ”I know now… You're a demon hunter… There really is a monster in the night at the Bay of Pigs!”

”Tell me what you know and I'll let you go!” Fang Yuan asked quickly.

”I should've thought of it earlier, that it's no longer safe here… John and Jonna disappeared this way…” The female robber lost focus instantly and was muttering something. She looked heart-broken and seemed to be blaming herself, ”I was too careless!”

”So, what? Do you have any clues?” Fang Yuan asked with much interest.

”Are you here to hunt it down? Demon hunter? Almon clenched her teeth. ”I beg of you, kill it as soon as possible, or else there'll be many innocent victims every day! I suspect that my two partners were killed by it, but I have no idea where it is.”

”Okay, but this demon likes to operate in the darkness. Be careful not to go to places that are too shady. Do you know any places here that are quite spacious and have little light during the day?”

After perceiving the truth in the other party's words, Fang Yuan shook his head regrettably and continued questioning her.

”Dark places?” Almon was taken aback. ”There's an abandoned stretch of storehouses at the east side. There won't be any sunlight in the storehouses for the whole day…”

”Aside from that, are there any underground caves?”

”How is that possible? The Bay of Pigs is a harbor. Any underground cave would be drowned by the water! Unless someone dug an underground chamber. It also wouldn't be very large usually.”

”Okay, you can leave now!”

Fang Yuan nodded his head, he kept his wallet but took out a bill again and gave it to her. ”Here's your tip.”

”Thank you, boss!”

Almon was a little hesitant, but went on to stretch out her hand to receive it; looked like she was in need of money.

”This Demon Hunter is a good person?”

Looking at Fang Yuan's leaving shadow, her emotions were very complicated…

…

Pig's Head Hotel.

”I'm back!”

Fang Yuan came to a big room and politely greeted Vice President Flock.

”I've brought the map of the Bay of Pigs, as well as the locations that have a spreading dark aura.” While he was saying that, he handed him a large piece of goat-skin paper.

”Not bad!”

Flock spread it out and was attracted by the detailed descriptions after taking a glance. ”It's unexpected that you have such skill in making a map. This'll be much more convenient! Tonight we'll set out secretly and patrol around the harbor after splitting into three groups! Hulk, you'll stand guard in the hotel.”

”Understood!”

Fang Yuan could only look on coldly. Flock had the ability of an A-grade Demon Hunter, and the other Demon Hunters were also almost as smart and efficient. What used to be a newbie Demon Hunter would, of course, be incomparable.

He could only go with the flow and accept the arrangement given to him then.

Others also knew that Hulk was only an unlucky chap with limited power that was sucked into this operation. They would have to take care of him if he went along and, hence, didn't have any opinions about it.

”Now, I'll separate us into groups…”

While Flock started to allocate the manpower, Fang Yuan saw the opportunity and discreetly retreated to begin preparing food for the others.

The hotel's dinner for today was potato with braised beef. The taste was decent, and every Demon Hunter had their fill by eating a large plate of it. They promptly went to either rest or to clean and try out their weapons.

When night arrived, they disappeared from their rooms, one by one into the darkness, leaving Fang Yuan alone.

”Knowing that my safety will be guaranteed under the condition that I don't do anything is clearly not my style.”

In the middle of the night, Fang Yuan climbed out of his bed and looked at the powder in his hands and smiled.

Today, he did something to the female robber, Almon.

To him, that woman felt a little weird and seemed to be hiding something. Hence, he casually planted something for precaution.

At that moment, Fang Yuan changed to his windbreaker, carried his sword, secured the gun onto his waist, and checked the medicament belt once before vanishing into the night.

He went to the alley that he and Almon had met in the day and took out a bottle. He then removed the cork and sniffed. A stench drifted into his nose instantly.

”D*mn it… Who invented this tracking powder, gross!”

Fang Yuan swung his head and sniffed the air again. A hint of fragrance entered his nostrils and wouldn't fade away. It became a road marker.
