Fang Zheng still didn't understand Yotsuya Miko's situation, but to be on the safe side, he also took a Valkyrie from Frostmourne and lent it to Yotsuya Miko to protect her safety. With Valkyrie around, at least most evil spirits couldn't harm Yotsuya Miko.

As for Yotsuya Miko's statement that she didn't want to see evil spirits... Fang Zheng really didn't have a good solution at the moment. If Yotsuya Miko's situation was the same as Fang Zheng thought, and it was some kind of mutation of the magic eye, then the only way out was probably eye transplantation.

As for Yotsuya Miko's complaints about the strange and bizarre appearance of the evil spirits in this world, Fang Zheng could only laugh. After all, this world was formed by collecting keywords from him. And Fang Zheng also had the characteristics of an ancient god. Maybe these evil spirits looked like this because they were influenced by Fang Zheng's ancient god aura.

Yotsuya Miko was relieved by this solution. Although it did not completely solve the problem, it at least solved part of her problem.

Moreover, compared to those unspeakable evil spirits, Valki is much more beautiful.

After that, Fang Zheng had a peaceful vacation - or so it should have been.

Unfortunately, a phone call disrupted Fang Zheng's peaceful life.

Actually, it's Fang Zheng's own fault.

"That's her?"

Looking at the photo in his hand, Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly, and the man sitting opposite him nodded.

"Yes, based on the clues you provided, we found her, Tiayou Lunatic."

"How is she doing now?"

"We don't know."

"……have no idea?"

Fang Zheng looked at him in confusion. More than half a year ago, Fang Zheng met Xiao An and learned that the nanotechnology of the Apostle of the Star might have come from an alien planet, so he went back to investigate. The final result was that he found a name, and after that, Fang Zheng submitted the name to the Bounty Hunter Association and let their intelligence network handle it.

I just didn't expect the Bounty Hunter Association to be so slow. It took more than half a year to send me news.

"We only know that she lived in a small town in southern Europe for a period of time half a year ago, but she disappeared after that, and her home was burned down. Although we tried hard to investigate afterwards, there were no clues. All we could find was this photo and her name."

Having said this, the man paused.

"In fact, we suspect that this is probably a fake name because we cannot find this name in our database, nor in tracking consumption records or security records."

“That’s not surprising.”

Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders. He was not surprised. If Tiayou was an ordinary person, then no matter what she did in the past, at least there would be records. For example, birth certificate, school enrollment records, credit consumption records, deposit records, etc. With the ability of the Bounty Hunter Association, it is impossible that they cannot find out anything.

Of course, this is based on the assumption that the other party is an Earthling.

If the other party is an alien, then for the earth's information network, she really popped out from between the rocks, and it is impossible to conduct further investigation.

"Anyway, these are the only clues we can find. We suspect that this lady may have met with an accident."

The man's words were very straightforward, which was actually normal. He had been missing for nearly half a year, and no one had seen him alive or dead. He was not in the bounty hunter's intelligence network. If you think about it a little more, it is possible that he was killed by someone and thrown into a mountain cave. For bounty hunters, this kind of thing is common.

"Give me the exact location and I'll go investigate."

"no problem."

The man nodded and handed a file bag to Fang Zheng, who then handed over an envelope - the Bounty Hunter Association's intelligence network also costs money.

After the transaction was completed, the man said goodbye and left, leaving Fang Zheng alone in the fast food restaurant, looking at the photo in front of him.

"This is simply the adult version of Eve and An."

Looking at the photo, Fang Zheng couldn't help but sigh. In the photo the man brought, one could clearly see a young blonde woman who was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old. Apart from her body being more curvy than Xiao An and Eve, her facial features, hair and looks were almost exactly the same as the two of them. They looked like they were cut from the same mold.

People would believe that they were mother and daughter.

Of course, if Fang Zheng were to say so, then it is very likely that this woman is the prototype of Eve and Xiao An.

Is he dead? Or is he hiding somewhere?

Fang Zheng was silent for a moment, finished the Coke in his hand, then stood up and walked out of the restaurant.

When he returned home, Xiao An happened to be home and was cutting vegetables under the guidance of Eve and Meikan - for a killer, this was actually not a difficult job.

"Ah, brother, you're back."

Seeing Fang Zheng coming back, Meigan immediately smiled.

"Xiao An is going to cook tonight, everyone can taste her cooking skills."

“Well, that’s not bad either.”

After hearing what Meigan said, Fang Zheng thought about it, and finally didn't say anything more, but nodded with a smile.

In this way, the family spent a lively dinner time. After dinner, Fang Zheng stood up.

"Eve, Xiao An, you two come to my room."

After saying this, Fang Zheng turned and left, leaving Eve and Xiao An looking at each other, not knowing what had happened. However, they still followed Fang Zheng's orders and came to his room. After that, Fang Zheng did not waste any words and explained the information he had obtained from the Bounty Hunter Association to the two of them. He also took out the photos for them to identify.

"This is... Miss Tiayou?"

Holding the photo in her hand, Eve was obviously surprised when she saw the woman in the photo who looked almost exactly like her but was much older than her.

"Haven't you seen her? Have you ever heard of her?"

“…”

Facing Fang Zheng's question, Eve shook her head. Since she was born, she has been in the research institute with those researchers. Among them, she has never heard of anyone named Tiayou, let alone seen her.

"What about Xiao An?"

Fang Zheng looked at Xiao An, who was staring at the photo in Eve's hand with a very complicated expression on his face.

"……All right."

Although Xiao An did not answer, Fang Zheng almost understood what she meant and shrugged his shoulders.

"In short, this is the current situation. Since Tiayou is very likely an alien, the intelligence support for the Bounty Hunter Association ends here. But I don't plan to end it like this. No matter what, we have to find the other party and see what's going on. It's better to see the person alive or the body dead than to be unclear like now. It just so happens that I still have more than half a month of vacation, so I plan to go to southern Europe. Do you want to come with me?"

"I want to come along."

Eve raised her hand. She didn't know Tiayou, but she was also very interested in this woman who might be her creator. She didn't have any complicated thoughts about the Spring and Autumn period, she just wanted to meet the person who created her and see what she was like.

On the contrary, Xiao An...

"I'll...think about it."

There was something obviously wrong with her expression as she stared at the photo.

"No problem, we will make some preparations and set off in three days. If you want, you can come with us."

Fang Zheng was not stupid. He knew from Xiao An's expression that there must be some grudge between her and the woman named Tiayou. He did not want to interfere. After all, it was Xiao An's own problem, so he could not say much. Xiao An nodded, took the photo, and turned to leave.

"Sister Xiao An seems to be in a bad mood."

After watching Xiao An leave, Eve looked towards Fang Zheng and raised her inner questions.

"Isn't she on good terms with that Miss Tiayou?"

"Who knows... I don't know the specific situation, anyway, let's wait and see."

Fang Zheng didn't say much. He could guess what Xiao An was thinking, so he told the two of them in private. Fang Zheng was not worried about Eve. After living with Fang Zheng and Mei Gan for more than a year, Eve was becoming more and more like a normal person, and she didn't have any negative thoughts because she was a man-made person. Both her personality and way of thinking had become more outgoing.

Plus, she didn't actually know Ti Yayou, so she was mostly curious at the moment, just like when you hear that there is someone in this world who looks exactly like you, you're naturally curious, but you're not sure what you think.

But Xiao An was obviously different. Fang Zheng had heard some things about her from Teacher Yu Men. Like Eve, Xiao An seemed to be an artificial human created by a research institute. Later, after the research institute was destroyed at the end of the Galactic War, Xiao An disappeared. Then, a few years later, she appeared under the name "Golden An" and became a famous assassin in the universe.

Although I don't know what kind of life Xiao An has been leading in the past few years, judging from her situation, it must not be a happy memory. After all, when she first met Fang Zheng, Xiao An seemed quite introverted, taciturn, and had an aura that kept people away from her. This in itself can explain something. If she was leading a happy life, she would not have instinctively isolated herself like Xiao An did.

Now it seems that there might be something unusual between Xiao An and this woman named Tiayou.

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng sighed helplessly.

I hope there won't be any big trouble.
