An hour later, Kurozawa returned home by car, two large bags of groceries in his hands.
The law enforcement agency was in complete chaos by now, but that was no longer his concern.
From its appearance to its sudden outburst of killing, Lefty took only a few minutes. Although it hadn't intentionally damaged the surveillance equipment, its figure must have been seen by some people, but that didn't matter.
The most likely outcome was simply an increase in the human department's determination and speed in liquidating the Parasitic Organisms.
Under normal circumstances, the whereabouts of the Parasitic Organisms should have already been discovered, as many of them didn't notice the ubiquitous surveillance when hunting humans.
But Kurozawa estimated that the human side would fall into a brief shock. After all, a species like extraterrestrial beings descending and parasitizing humans for survival was a huge matter. Only with the surging number of murders and the increasingly severe infiltration of the upper echelons would the human side strike with full force.
Now, the law enforcement agency being attacked, with armed personnel unable to resist at all, would make the human side more vigilant, thereby accelerating this process.
"But the fastest estimate is still a few months from now."
"Without complete certainty, they would only alert the Parasitic Organisms. The human side won't act rashly."
At the entrance foyer, Kurozawa took off his coat and leisurely walked into the house.
After putting the fresh ingredients into the refrigerator, he looked towards the living room.
In the living room, there was a sofa, a glass table, and an LCD TV. However, Kurozawa usually went directly to his own room and rarely took the time to watch TV. Kana was the same.
With the advanced features of mobile phones, the TV had been unused for a long time, covered in a thick layer of dust.
Turning his head to look, Kana wasn't on the first floor, so Kurozawa, for the first time in a while, turned on the TV and stared at the playful, beautiful young men and women on the idol talent show.
Leaning back, Kurozawa changed to a comfortable sitting position, his eyes half-closed, one hand tucked into his pocket, gently stroking something. The metallic feel of the handgun conveyed a cold texture, quite handy.
"Gotta find some time to put it against my face and see if I can catch a bullet."
Kurozawa had long wanted to try that crazy move from a certain ultimate killer.
Among all martial arts, none is unbreakable, only speed is invincible!
At the same time, noisy and playful sounds came from the TV screen, and Kurozawa frowned slightly.
He didn't really watch this kind of attention-grabbing TV show. Looking at it now, he just felt it was incredibly boring, with no fun at all.
Finding the remote control, he changed channels.
He stopped at a TV channel that broadcast news.
The host on the screen was trying to suppress discomfort while commentating. A large patch of red mosaic was displayed on the screen, spread across the alley. The ground, the side of the wall, and the nearby trash can were all stained quite a bit. The scene was simply shocking.
"Nii-san, you're back."
"Why are you home a bit late today?"
Kana's voice came from the stairs. She had heard the TV and came downstairs to check.
Kurozawa told her the truth: "I encountered a crime scene and went to do some recording."
On the other side, Kana's eyes widened, and she immediately ran over, asking nervously, "Crime scene? Did anything happen?"
"Should I call Mom and Dad to come back?"
Kurozawa waved his hand and said, "No need, I just happened to come across it."
"Kana, don't go out if you don't have anything to do recently. Don't wander around anywhere else except school and home."
Kurozawa wanted to turn himself into a cold-eyed traveler, separating himself from the people of this world, but being in it, it was difficult to remain unaffected.
After all, having lived together for over ten years, they still had some feelings for each other, and the same blood flowed in their veins. He couldn't just let his biological younger sister in this world be harmed.
Kana's situation was very dangerous. Her perception ability was actually the ability to perceive non-human creatures, and unlike Fighting Spirit Perception which could sense things silently, hers was bidirectional.
When she detected the other party, the other party also locked onto her location.
In the past, in a generally peaceful and stable environment, she could only perceive Kurozawa. She would often concentrate, focusing on stimulating her mind to perceive Kurozawa, trying to expand her perception range, wanting to peek at what her brother was doing.
This behavior was fine before, and Kurozawa pretended not to know, but now it was extremely dangerous.
Kana, stimulating her mental perception, was like lighting a blazing bonfire in a dark jungle, swinging her arms with all her might, shouting to the Parasitic Organisms: "Come see me, quickly come see me."
If she were also a Parasitic Organism, then this matter would naturally be over, just the mutual communication of non-humans.
But Kana wasn't. Once a Parasitic Organism found her, and Kurozawa wasn't nearby, Kana, being human but able to emit a perception signal, would likely greatly stimulate the Parasitic Organisms' appetite.
In the original timeline, she died because this perception ability attracted a Parasitic Organism.
Kana nodded, obediently saying, "I understand."
Immediately after, she sat next to Kurozawa, her calves, clad in black knee-high socks, held together and resting to the side. She asked curiously, "Is it because of the recent murders? The classmates at school are all discussing it."
"Almost every day, you can see new missing or death cases. Sigh, it hasn't been peaceful recently."
Kurozawa said, "Yes."
Kana again obediently said, "Okay, then I'll just stay at home if I have nothing to do and not go out."
The look in her eyes, smiling with excitement, clearly showed her joy at Kurozawa's concern.
A few seconds later, Kana suddenly thought of something and turned to look closely at Kurozawa. After hesitating, she said, "What about when I have something to do? I can't just stay at home all the time. There will definitely be times when I have to go out."
"Will Nii-san come with me?"
Kurozawa preferred to be alone. At most, they would go to school together if it was on the way, but he rarely went out to play or shop with Kana at other times.
Beside him, Kurozawa sighed almost imperceptibly, then said softly, "We'll see how it goes."
Kana fidgeted with her fingers, practically glowing with visible excitement.
Clearly, her attention wasn't on Kurozawa's warning.
That made sense. Daily news stories were just casual conversation topics for a school student like Kana, something to be discussed and then forgotten. No one would truly care, feeling that such events were far removed from their own lives.
Not long after, Kurozawa returned to the room, his eyes shifting as he considered ways to solve the problem.
"Tell Kana the truth and make her wary?"
After thinking for a moment, Kurozawa gently shook his head.
This method wasn't feasible.
"Telling her the truth is useless. When Kana is emotionally agitated, that strange mental perception will also be triggered."
At this moment, his left hand trembled slightly. Lefty indicated it had something to say.
Kurozawa released the suppression, and an eye and a mouth immediately grew on the back of his left hand.
Lefty observed Kurozawa's expression, its voice calm and full of reason as it said, "Only a Parasitic Organism can deal with a Parasitic Organism."
"You could give her a parasitic hand as well."
Although humans could firmly suppress Parasitic Organisms with their technological strength, if an ordinary person encountered one in the streets, it would truly be a dead end.
Kurozawa had considered this idea, but he didn't know how to do it.
"The current Parasitic Organisms are already mature. It's not easy to transfer them to another person."
Lefty said, "I've made calculations. As long as the preparations are sufficient, the success rate is over ninety percent."
"At your school, that fellow Parasitic Organism parasitic on a human hand would be very suitable. If it's that one, it would be very easy to transplant."
