This was the first time Huo Yuankai had mentioned his family background.

This policeman, who had never changed his attitude no matter how much trouble or difficulty he encountered before and had always been optimistic and positive, revealed a melancholy he had never shown before.

His father was a retired policeman.

No, you should say that his grandfather was also a policeman!

Their family, along with other relatives who also became police officers, can be considered a true family of police officers.

Such a family naturally has impeccable family values.

However, in this profession, sacrifice is inevitable. Huo Yuankai's father was one of the heroes in his family who died in the line of duty.

In order to capture a drug trafficker who had crossed the border, his father was stabbed four or five times by a vicious criminal, but he still managed to chase after him for several hundred meters. With the help of the surrounding crowd, he managed to subdue one of the drug dealers before collapsing in a pool of blood from exhaustion.

“Some people are cursing at us, but my dad says that if we really feel bad, we should find a roadside to squat down and watch the pedestrians passing by us, who are all relaxed and carefree. Soon, we will feel like we are filled with honey, and we will feel good about everything we do!”

Huo Yuankai chuckled, but his expression quickly turned to one of frustration: "But we can only catch ordinary criminals. The kind you're dealing with... I... I really..."

"Just do your best! You're not a god descended to earth who can do everything, and even gods have their limitations!"

Hu Da had initially intended to tease Huo Yuankai, but after hearing what he said, she stopped joking and began to comfort him.

Although she wasn't exactly a good monster, it was precisely because of her experiences that she understood even more the strength and preciousness of humans like Huo Yuankai.

This is why the world is currently experiencing an imbalance between good and evil, with many countries falling into darkness, while China remains under the shroud of light.

“You’re right!” Huo Yuankai wasn’t one to wallow in self-pity, so he quickly recovered and smiled at Hu Da. He was about to say something more when he was startled by what Song Mengmeng handed him.

It was a jade Pixiu pendant.

"This is me..."

Huo Yuankai instinctively wanted to refuse, after all, one shouldn't accept something for nothing. However, before he could even utter a word of refusal, Hu Da, who was even more anxious than him, raised her hand and pushed him: "What are you still standing there for? This is a Pixiu that can ward off evil and bring peace! Hurry up and say thank you and accept it!"

Just kidding, this is a gift from the Pixiu boss!

This kid really hit the jackpot today!

"Keep this safe. It could save your life in a pinch!" Seeing Huo Yuankai still standing there dumbfounded, Hu Da couldn't help but reach out and take Song Mengmeng's Pixiu, stuffing it into Huo Yuankai's hand. "This is something that others would kill for. I don't know what you're hesitating for!"

Whether it was because Hu Da's words had an effect or not, the moment Huo Yuankai got his hands on the Pixiu, he reached out and gripped it tightly, as if afraid someone would snatch it away.

"Thank you, thank you." Huo Yuankai remembered that Song Mengmeng in front of him was a master who had single-handedly fought that monster yesterday, so the Pixiu guardian beast she gave him was naturally a rare find.

Song Mengmeng smiled at him but didn't say anything more.

As guardians of righteousness and the army, the Pixiu always held a bias towards humans like Huo Yuankai.

Their courage and sacrifice deserve the protection of the Pixiu clan!

The stability in Baiyue City did not last long.

The police station where Huo Yuankai worked quickly received four or five missing persons reports.

This time, the missing persons are no longer limited to foreign tourists; now, domestic tourists and local residents of Baiyue City are also being affected.

As more and more people came to report the case, the number of people involved quickly rose to more than twenty.

Without exception, all of these people had been to the bar street in Baiyue City.

After receiving this information, Song Mengmeng immediately went to the bar street. However, she went back and forth seven or eight times at different times, and even sat down in a coffee shop there for the whole night, but she did not find any valuable clues.

Perhaps due to the recent surge in missing persons, the bar street has seen a significant decrease in foot traffic compared to before.

Song Mengmeng stood on the second floor of the coffee shop, looking down at the crowd below, her brows furrowed.

This was the first time she had encountered such a situation!

These Pixiu are the nemesis of evil spirits, possessing an innate and keen intuition for them! Even a monster like Medusa, who has committed countless sins, could not possibly escape her scrutiny!

But the truth is clear: Medusa should be near this night market right now.

But she just couldn't find out even the slightest clue!

This unprecedented sense of frustration plunged the little girl into despair.

"Do you need any help?" Seeing that the girl was in a bad mood, Yan Di, who had finished his work, walked over and stood behind her. He gently put his arm around the girl's waist, holding her tightly in his arms with an affectionate yet possessive gesture, and asked in a low voice.

"No!" Song Mengmeng ground her back teeth and decisively rejected Yan Di's offer to help.

It's just a temporary problem! If we turn to him for help every time we encounter an obstacle, won't we be unable to move forward at all in the future?!

Thinking of this, Song Mengmeng became even more determined in her mind. She was determined to catch that damned evil spirit!

Moreover, he overcame all the difficulties on his own without the help of the King of Hell!

"With the Xuanyuan Sword in your hand, it wouldn't be strange if some other artifact appeared that could conceal demonic power and evil energy!" Yan Di wasn't too surprised by Song Mengmeng's refusal.

It could even be said that all of this was within his expectations.

The little one in my arms looks delicate, but actually has a very competitive nature.

So it's better to let her handle this little problem herself!

However, even if I don't help, I can still provide some clues to help her avoid some detours.

Sure enough, after Yan Di's reminder, Song Mengmeng suddenly felt enlightened. She had been only focused on keeping an eye on people, how could she have forgotten that she could also find clues from spiritual artifacts?!

A magical artifact that can so perfectly conceal its demonic and evil aura must be no ordinary item!

Since it's something that should have a certain level of recognition, then searching for Hu Yue is definitely the right choice!
