HTDI Chapter 3

Why was she using a calligraphy brush?

This thought popped into Su Mingfei’s mind.

Yina explained:

“Oh, this is just a personal hobby of mine. Don’t mind it.”

She seemed to know what Su Mingfei was thinking.

In fact, everyone who comes to the office for the first time is curious when they see her using a calligraphy brush.

Hearing Yina’s words, he nodded to show his understanding.

Su Mingfei thought for a moment and said:

“You were a special forces soldier, you can be a security guard here.”

Hearing him say this, Yina was also very surprised and looked at Su Mingfei.

She said:

As she spoke, she sized up Su Mingfei.

Just now, she was just doing her routine work.

When she heard Su Mingfei say that he was a special forces soldier, it aroused her attention.

She looked at Su Mingfei. His whole demeanor was indeed different from ordinary people, full of confidence, and mature like a movie hero.

Everyone else paled in comparison to him.

Although it was a bit of an exaggeration to describe it that way, Yina thought that he really had a good temperament.

Facing Yina’s scrutiny, he was not afraid at all.

He faced it calmly.

In addition, in such an unfamiliar place, he needed to protect his daughter. Since he had experience as a special forces soldier, being a police officer or something here, firstly, he could openly and legitimately carry a gun to protect his daughter, and secondly, if something happened, he could openly take action.

After sizing up Su Mingfei, Yina looked at him and said:

After a moment of silence, Su Mingfei said:

“Yes.”

Hearing the words “eat people,” Su Baihan’s heart tightened all of a sudden. She thought of some movies she had seen about cannibals.

Unconsciously, she tightened her grip on her father’s hand.

Because she knew that her father was a very capable person.

“Yes, Officer Li has said that.”

Su Mingfei also nodded.

At the same time, he also felt his daughter tightening her grip on his hand.

He knew that his daughter was probably a little scared now.

Yina also saw Su Baihan’s actions, understood, and said:

“I might sound a little cruel by saying this, but that’s survival!”

When she said this, Yina seemed to have thought of something unhappy, and her face was a little gloomy.

Su Mingfei also noticed it.

Realizing her slip, Yina continued:

She smiled slightly.

Her tone was not as serious as before.

Su Mingfei was infected by her cheerful tone and also smiled a little.

As she spoke, Yina took out a set of keys from the drawer, stood up, and said:

“Let’s go.”

So, Su Mingfei took his daughter’s hand and followed.

As they walked, Yina opened the door to her office.

Yina said as she walked.

Su Mingfei didn’t know the name of the place, but he knew the way. He said he would lead the way.

Because his house was a little far from there.

The three of them walked and talked, and the people who passed by greeted Yina in a hurry.

He could see that those people were sincerely greeting her.

Yina said:

“Although you all have jobs, you are very important. The reason why you work is to maintain your human nature and avoid going crazy.”

“Avoid going crazy?”

Su Mingfei asked.

Yina sighed as she spoke.

Yina’s words made some sense.

Appropriate work can not only maintain good social relationships but also vent the emotions in one’s heart.

Before long, the two arrived at Su Mingfei’s car.

Yina was not in a hurry to get in the car but turned around it and said with bright eyes:

“Your car is really good.”

That was natural. His car, to say nothing else, was very strong in terms of defense.

“It’s just so-so.”

Su Mingfei had nothing to say and could only force out such a sentence.

Yina smiled.

Then she got into the car, she was in the passenger seat, his daughter Su Baihan was in the back, and Su Mingfei was driving.

With Yina’s guidance, he quickly found his house.

It was a two-story house, located in the west of town.

After the three got out of the car, Yina opened the door and led them in.

The house had a lot of things, such as a TV, refrigerator, and sofa.

So it seemed very empty.

But there was everything, a living room, a dining table, a place to sleep and bathe, and of course, windows.

Then, Yina took the two to the public cafeteria.

Yina pointed to the cafeteria.

It was indeed very spacious inside.

As she spoke, she asked the cook to make three bowls of noodles. Su Baihan was so hungry that she was wolfing down the food.

Seeing this, Su Mingfei was a little embarrassed, but he didn’t know what to say.

Saying something bad about one’s daughter in front of strangers was something that would hurt her.

Yina smiled and said:

Hearing her say that, he realized that she had a son.

But why was her son not by her side now?

Something must have happened.

Because he didn’t dare to ask.

He was afraid of hurting the person in front of him.

Yina continued:

“My son was eaten by an Other-Demon one night last year.”

She said with her head lowered.

Seeing this, he didn’t know what to say.

Fortunately, she also started eating the noodles.

The noodles were simple, each bowl had a fried egg.

Very simple.

He also started eating, the simple noodles tasted very delicious.

After they finished eating, Yina explained a few more things, and then walked back to the police station.

He wanted to drive her there, but she said she liked to walk.

Since that was the case, he wouldn’t force her.

He drove the car, which still had supplies in it, and took his daughter to their house.

The house number was 57.

After entering the house, his daughter Su Baihan said to him:

“Dad, go take a shower.”

“Okay, okay.”

As she spoke, his daughter went upstairs to take a shower.

The shower room and the toilet were separate.

The toilet was naturally the place to go to the bathroom.

There was only one shower room, on the second floor.

The toilet was also on the second floor.

The two of them lived on the second floor, and there were two rooms.

Including new toothbrushes and toothpaste, and laundry detergent.

Of course, there were also some snacks like biscuits.

Therefore, the police officers were very respected by the people in the town.

It was said that if he wanted to be a police officer here, protecting this place was a very honorable and promising job.

He had no objection to this.

For him, he wanted to be a police officer, a security guard here, only to protect his daughter.

Protecting other people, he would not consider for the time being.

That was all.

By the time he had finished everything, he was a little tired. He had moved all the things from the car.

“Dad, where did I put the hair dryer we just bought?”

He pointed his finger and said:

He had to say something.

Of course, there were men and women in the town. He had just seen many women.

Hearing her father’s words, Su Baihan said “Okay,” and then unpacked the hair dryer to find a plug to charge it.

After instructing his daughter, he also went upstairs to take a shower.

Warm water washed over his strong body.

There were also some unused shampoos and body washes next to him.

Did these belong to the previous owner of this house?

Where did the previous owner of this house go?

Were they eaten by Other-Demons?

Thinking of this, a sense of tension spread throughout his body again.

And were those Other-Demons really dead?

Did those terrifying things really exist?

He wanted to confirm it again tonight!

After taking a shower, the sky was almost dusk.

At this moment, a loud bell rang throughout the town, and he hurriedly went to the window to look.

The loud bell rang again throughout the town.

At this time, people who heard the bell hurriedly returned to their homes.

He saw through the window that many families were holding their children or holding their children’s hands, and hurriedly entered the house.

The people in the houses next to him also retreated into the house with panicked expressions.

The loud bell rang again.

This was the third time it had rung, and the lively town became very quiet.

He looked at the time, it was 6 p.m.

Then, after the third bell rang, the whole town lost power.

His daughter, Su Baihan, also felt this unusual thing.

She also ran out of the room.

She asked nervously:

“Dad…”

She hesitated.

“It’s okay, go back and get some rest.”

Su Mingfei said, looking at her.

Only then did his daughter return to her room.

Su Mingfei then went downstairs and secured all the doors and windows.

Then he checked his phone.

There was still no signal.

Thinking of this, he hurried to his daughter’s room. Just as he was about to knock on the door, his daughter opened it first.

The two looked at each other, and Su Mingfei said:

“What’s wrong?”

So that was it, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He said:

Su Mingfei said.

So Su Baihan returned to the room and gave him the phone.

Su Mingfei directly turned on the phone and put it in his pants pocket. Of course, he also turned on his phone.

His daughter Su Baihan also saw this scene and asked:

“Dad, are there really Other-Demons?”

Su Mingfei asked back:

“Didn’t you see it last night?”

Hearing this, Su Baihan was silent.

Su Mingfei put his hand on her shoulder and said:

“Okay, it’ll be okay, sleep well at night, you know?”

Hearing her father say this, Su Baihan reluctantly squeezed out a little smile and said:

“Okay.”

The ground was about to darken, Su Mingfei leaned against his bed, looking out the window.

He moved the bed to the window.

The bed was very big.

His daughter was already asleep.

At least, she had closed her eyes, her back to Su Mingfei.

Su Mingfei couldn’t sleep.

He also couldn’t force himself to close his eyes.

He looked at the outside gradually darkening, and also looked at his pistol.

He carefully stroked it, and at the same time looked outside with his eyes.

It was dark, and the moonlight came out.

At that moment, his eyes widened,

The monsters appeared!

Just then, he felt a cold air rushing to his face.

His face stiffened, and he carefully looked back, only to find that it was his daughter.

She was also staring wide-eyed, looking outside.

He was startled.

Su Baihan saw her father looking over, and then she pointed outside with her finger.

So, Su Mingfei also looked outside.

The father and daughter’s eyes were now fixed on the outside.

Their breathing was rapid.

Outside was a road, on both sides of the road, naturally, there were houses.

At this time, the Other-Demons appeared on the road.

They were like zombies, with no intelligence.

They had humanoid bodies, were very tall, but had different shapes.

Some had very large eyes.

Some had strange horns on their heads.

Some had very long legs.

Some had wings on their backs.

They were Other-Demons, man-eating monsters.

Like those scenes that are not suitable for children, Su Baihan and Su Mingfei were staring closely.

Their hearts were filled with fear.

If it were normal times, seeing such scenes that were not suitable for children, Su Mingfei would definitely take his daughter away from this scene, and then educate her.

But now, he had no such thoughts.

His daughter carefully backed away, and then lay on the bed, covered with the quilt, with her back to her father.

Her whole body couldn’t help shaking.

Those scenes were too terrifying.

She even forgot to make a sound.

Su Mingfei continued to watch.

Those monsters were walking aimlessly.

Walking back and forth.

But, Su Mingfei frowned.

The way those monsters were walking was very wrong.

But, he couldn’t think of what it was for a moment.
