As soon as the sky cleared up, Xia Shang completed the discharge procedures and was discharged smoothly.
The first thing he did after being discharged from the hospital was to call Tamiya Yoshiko, then rushed to the coffee shop and took the remaining information from her. With this information, he estimated that his fusion progress could reach 90%.
"Are you trying to fuse the parasitic beast? What are the experimental results?" Xia Shang flipped through the information and saw some clues from it.
"Don't try to pry into things you shouldn't know, otherwise I can't guarantee that I won't kill you with my own hands."
Tamiya Yoshiko's eyes were fixed on Xia Shang with an extremely cold expression.
"OK, when the time is right, I think I will see it with my own eyes."
Xia Shang was about to leave with the information, and Tamiya Yoshiko continued, "The school will resume normal teaching in a month."
"knew."
In the following month, Xia Shang appeared in famous food restaurants all over Tokyo.
I don't know if it's because the incident caused by Parasyte A had such a bad impact, but the number of dismemberment and murder cases like before has dropped sharply.
However, according to Xia Shang's speculation, they should not have stopped killing, but they would tend to kill in remote corners where few people go.
"Shinichi, I'm here." In the maid cafe, Xia Shang sat by the window and waved to Shinichi.
"Why did you invite me to a place like this?"
Izumi Shinichi looked around curiously. It was his first time in a maid cafe.
"I heard that the coffee here is very good, so I came here specially to try it. Don't worry, I won't tell Murano Satomi." Then, Xia Shang asked the maids around him to leave. After all, there was no need for outsiders to know about their conversation.
"You haven't had any conflicts with Tamiya Yoshiko at school recently, have you?"
Xia Shang asked after taking a sip of coffee.
Izumi Shinichi sat opposite him and couldn't help but frowned: "Just yesterday, I wanted to fight her, but she left, and she also said something."
"She believed that all creatures on Earth obeyed certain orders, such as flies were born knowing how to flap their wings, and spiders were born knowing how to weave webs. When she occupied the human brain, she also received an order, which was to eat up the human race!"
Quan Xinyi leaned back in his chair, staring at Xia Shang, "Did you also receive that order?"
Seeing Shinichi's nervous look, Xia Shang picked up his coffee and shook his head: "I have no idea about the so-called order, and the order she mentioned is more like instinct. In other words, killing or eating humans is the instinct that parasitic beasts are born with."
"Instinct?" Shinichi fell into deep thought.
"So, just like lions hunt antelopes, parasites hunt humans."
"That's what it looks like at the moment." Xia Shang nodded in agreement with Shinichi.
But Shinichi still couldn't figure it out. If this was the case, then parasites should have appeared at the beginning of human beings, instead of suddenly breaking into human society like now.
"Why do they suddenly appear?"
"I don't know either. Maybe I'll know in the future."
Xia Shang did not want to continue discussing this issue with Xinyi, because it was meaningless. The appearance of parasitic beasts was more like the result of the manipulation of the earth's consciousness. There were difficult problems between them and humans. Could it be that just because of their appearance, humans would stop destroying the environment? This was obviously unrealistic.
"By the way, are your parents still at home?"
Xia Shang's question left Shinichi a little confused: "Excuse me, do you have anything to do with them?"
Xia Shang vaguely remembered that in the original work, Shinichi's parents were attacked by a parasitic beast while traveling, and his mother was killed by the parasitic beast. The parasitic beast that killed his mother even parasitized his mother.
"I just wanted to visit you at your house."
"They went traveling yesterday and won't be back for a while."
"So fast!" Xia Shang exclaimed subconsciously.
"What?" Shinichi always felt that Xia Shang was a little weird today.
Xia Shang suddenly felt a headache. He didn't expect that he was a step too late. Maybe Shinichi's mother had been killed. "You know the situation of the parasitic beasts, why didn't you stop them? Besides, now is not a good time to travel. You know, parasitic beasts like to attack humans in places where there are few people."
Xia Shang's words aroused Quan Xinyi's worries again.
The reason why he did not dissuade his parents was because he could not find a reasonable reason. He was afraid that if he told his parents about Mickey's existence, Mickey would kill his parents. After all, Mickey was still an emotionless existence like those parasites like Tamiya Yoshiko and Mr. A.
"It shouldn't be a problem. There have been almost no cases of parasitic beasts killing people recently."
This is the only way Izumi Shinichi can convince himself.
"Where did your parents go traveling?" Xia Shang wondered if the situation could still be salvaged.
"They left without telling me."
Izumi Shinichi shook his head.
Xia Shang put down the coffee in his hand and said sarcastically: "You dare to gamble on the possibility of your parents being attacked. If your parents are killed, can you bear the consequences? Or do you not care?"
Faced with Xia Shang's curse-like speech, Quan Xinyi stood up angrily and at the same time, knocked over the coffee on the table. In an instant, the boiling hot coffee soaked his clothes. The sudden movement attracted everyone's attention.
However, as his uneasiness grew, Izumi Shinichi looked down at his right hand.
"You're right. Before the parasite is solved, traveling is obviously not a good choice." The coffee made Izumi Shinichi sober up a lot. "Some things, we have to face, and we can't avoid them."
Shinichi opened the address book on his phone, found his mother's name, and clicked on the call.
Beep!!!
Finally, after more than ten seconds, the call was connected.
Listening to his mother's familiar voice, Izumi Shinichi's voice trembled with excitement.
"Ask them where they are now?" Xia Shang reminded.
"Tell me your location!"
Izumi Shinichi asked anxiously.
"There's no time to explain so much. When you come back, I will tell you everything."
Soon, Shinichi got their location, "They are on Mount Takao. It only takes an hour to get there from here."
After hanging up the phone, Quan Shinichi couldn't wait to set off.
"Shinichi, no human should know of my existence." Mickey emerged from Shinichi's palm.
"Shut up! I'll cut you off."
Shinichi picked up the knife used to cut food on the ground and held it against his right arm.
Mickey could sense that Shinichi meant it this time.
"Are parents really that important? Humans are such strange creatures."
"How can a parasitic beast understand human emotions? You are just a group of emotionless creatures!" Izumi Shinichi didn't even change his clothes that were soaked by coffee. He stood on the side of the road and stopped a taxi.
"Please go to Mount Takao, thank you."
