Fumbling in her pocket, she suddenly pulled out an eyeball.

Sunlight streamed down, illuminating Xiaowan's back, her face appearing fair and lovely, like porcelain.

At this moment, she tilted her head with a smile, reaching out her hand: "Thank you, Xiaowan will give you a gift too. This is my most, most favorite thing!"

Resting on her fair little hand was an eyeball.

The eyeball was filled with blood vessels, as clear as a glass marble.

Jiang Yun stared intently at the eyeball in Xiaowan's hand, her small eyes filled with shock and confusion.

But she wasn't scared.

Although it looked disgusting, she didn't believe it was a real eyeball.

"What is this? It looks like a marble," Jiang Yun said, forgetting her mother's instructions the moment she got closer.

Children are just that simple.

Xiaowan held out her hand and smiled, "This is my mommy's eye, it's my most, most, most favorite thing. Since you gave me candy, I'll give it to you."

"After all, you're the first child to give me candy. Xiaowan likes you."

"Will you be my friend!"

Xiaowan stared earnestly at Jiang Yun, her small face filled with happiness, her tilted head and eyes full of joy.

Jiang Yun looked at her, seeming to remember her mother's instructions, and hesitated with a pout.

"But... but..."

"But they won't let me play with you."

Jiang Yun looked back at the children behind her, all staring at her unhappily, including several of Jiang Yun's good friends.

Xiaowan's eyes didn't seem to show any emotion, she just retracted her hand.

Jiang Yun fumbled in her pocket again and took out a few more candies.

She stuffed them all into Xiaowan's hand: "But we can be friends secretly."

With that, Jiang Yun ran off.

Xiaowan didn't react, the corners of her mouth lifting slightly, as if she was used to it.

She turned and returned to the swing.

Hugging her teddy bear, she sat on the swing, swaying her legs, humming a song: "Maybe the moon doesn't blink, the stars don't speak, making you feel lonely!"

"Maybe the sun stayed up too late, the clouds are too rotten, forgetting to weave fairy tales for you~"

The swing, which had been steadily stopped, seemed to be gently pushed by a pair of large hands.

Xiaowan hugged her teddy bear, letting the swing carry them higher and higher.

A gentle breeze blew.

She seemed to hear her mother's familiar voice, the familiar music: "The stars will not leave the moon, and I will not leave you~"

.................

Night Watcher Branch.

Su Jinlong was leisurely drinking tea, reviewing the day's reports.

There were currently over thirty people in the city, including temporary Night Watchers. It was quite difficult for thirty-plus people to search the entire city.

Finding any clues in a short period was undoubtedly like searching for a needle in a haystack.

However, with their help, some of the weaker supernatural events had been suppressed.

But there was still no news of the Demon Bear, the Priest, or the Death Peach Vine.

"Master, the latest report is in. The Demon Bear's disaster level has been redefined and has reached the level of calamity."

"The number of people infected by the eyeball in the city has exceeded two thousand. They have all been contained, but it may be difficult to suppress its urban legend."

They already knew that the Demon Bear fed on fear.

If they continued to let the Demon Bear spread fear, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Su Jinlong took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Since there are infections, there must be a source. Investigate along this line. Also, have all the Ghost Contractors previously enslaved by the Demon Bear been found?"

Xing Tao nodded: "Except for the person with the Ghost Tool Scales, the rest have all been found."

Su Jinlong sighed: "Eliminate them all. Send their remains back, and double the compensation. We can't let these people suffer."

As he spoke, he slowly stood up and casually grabbed the handkerchief beside him.

"I can't wait any longer. We'll go out and look for them ourselves. Before the Death Peach Vine appears, we must find the Priest and the Demon Bear. You're in charge of the southern district, and I'll go to the northern district."

"Yes!"

That night, everyone in the Night Watcher Branch was dispatched.

Including the two leaders.

Back at school, Xu Miao returned home and continued to call Jiang Tang, but he didn't answer.

He didn't answer all night and the next day.

She was a little worried, and ever since drinking the Priest's water, she had felt uncomfortable. She went to the hospital for a checkup, but they couldn't find anything wrong.

She had been very anxious these past two days.

Midnight.

H City, Night Watcher Branch location.

A man in a long jacket and hat, with a cigarette in his mouth: "Huff, finally can rest for half a day. If this continues, I think I'm going to die of exhaustion."

"Who isn't? Lost contact for a day and a night, quickly call home."

The one speaking was Jiang Tang. After calling his wife a few days ago, there was no contact.

His wife must be worried.

Jiang Tang took out his new phone. This mission was too urgent. On the way to capture the former Night Watchers, his phone broke. Today, he finally managed to capture them, and only then did he have time to rest for half a day.

The phone rang, and after ringing for a full five seconds, it was picked up.

"Wife~ Good evening, did you miss me?" Jiang Tang said with a smile, his heart full of apologies.

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

Jiang Tang smiled awkwardly: "Wife, I'm sorry. I really didn't have time to reply to your messages these past two days. I only ate one piece of bread. It's really..."

He thought his wife was angry because he hadn't contacted her for the past two days, so he planned to coax her properly.

But the next second.

"Shh-" Xu Miao spoke.

"Don't talk, it's coming for me, it's really coming for me."

Hearing this almost collapsing voice, Jiang Tang was stunned, and stood up abruptly and said seriously: "What do you mean? What are you saying, wife?"

Xu Miao said with a smile: "Husband, I heard God speak, it's coming for me, what that priest said was true, God is really here."

God, Priest?

As a Night Watcher, Jiang Tang knew what the word Priest represented in their department recently.

Could it be that his wife was also chosen by the Priest, that supernatural!

"Are you home now? I'm coming over right away, wait for me!" After hanging up the phone, Jiang Tang put down his phone and rushed towards his home.

The colleagues next to him were all dumbfounded.

"What are you doing? Although it's our break time now, we can't leave. There's still a mission later!"

Jiang Tang said, "The Priest seems to have found my family. I'm going back now. You go in and inform the captain to follow up immediately!"

Ah?

Such a coincidence?

The colleague was dumbfounded, flicked the cigarette butt, and turned around to run inside: "Captain, the suspected traces of the Priest have appeared."

The church bells rang softly.

God came to earth, it is the walking demon.

Below, several priests knelt on the ground. As God moved, they also set off to collect the seeds of the world.
