"It should."
Hank turned and entered the park. Sue turned to Juliet Hill and asked, "What happened?"
Juliet Hill recounted what had happened, and looking at the silent Sue, she hesitated before saying, "I'm not sure if I'm seeing things, but the person who attacked me did have a face that looked like a wild beast, but the rest of their body was human, and they were even wearing clothes."
"I'll handle it, don't worry." Mrs. Su gently patted Juliet Hill's shoulder, looking at her red tracksuit: "Do you really like red?"
Juliet Hill shook her head: "No, it's just that you said I looked pretty in red this morning, and when I was looking for clothes, I happened to see this red tracksuit and wore it. Since I was wearing the tracksuit, I thought I'd go for a run in the park and get familiar with the park and the surrounding area. I didn't expect..."
"Feel sorry."
"Why are you apologizing? What color clothes you're wearing has nothing to do with what happened in this situation," Juliet Hill said, speechless.
"Do you know why the Big Bad Wolf attacked Little Red Riding Hood?" Su suddenly asked.
Juliet Hill asked, somewhat puzzled, "Why?"
"Because the big bad wolf likes red."
Juliet Hill blinked: "Okay, even if the Big Bad Wolf likes red, I'm not Little Red Riding Hood."
"Yes, you are Sleeping Beauty."
"You really like fairy tales?" Juliet Hill smiled slightly, recalling Little Red Riding Hood and Sleeping Beauty, both heroines from fairy tales.
"Ring ring ring—ring ring ring—" Su's phone suddenly rang. Su turned around and answered the phone. After listening for a few seconds without changing her expression, she replied, "I understand."
“If you have something to do, you can go ahead. I’m all fine now,” Juliet Hill said understandingly.
Su smiled and shook her head: "I had already arranged to meet Monroe to learn about luxury watches, so it's okay to go a little later. Hill, how about I perform a magic trick for you?"
"Magic?" Juliet Hill was taken aback at first, then realized that Sue was probably trying to reassure her, so she smiled and nodded, "Okay, what kind of magic trick do you want to perform?"
Sue rolled up her shirt sleeves to reveal her arms and held out her hands for Juliet Hill to check if there was anything there. Then she put her hands behind her back and asked her to count down three seconds.
"Three, two, one!"
As Juliet Hill counted down to three, Su stretched out her hands from behind her back and said with a smile, "Guess what's in that hand. If you guess right, I'll give it to you."
Juliet Hill looked at Su's clenched fists but didn't see anything unusual. Faced with a choice, she grabbed Su's right wrist, and Su smiled and turned her hand over to open it.
Juliet Hill's eyes widened instantly: "I guessed right? What is this, a necklace?"
"It's yours," Madam Su said with a smile.
"Aren't you going to help me put it on?" Juliet Hill looked at Su with a smile.
Ms. Su picked up the necklace, ran her hands through her hair, and bent down to tie it for her.
Juliet Hill glanced down at the necklace around her neck, smiled, and asked Su Shi, "Does it look good?"
"nice."
"This must be very expensive, right?" Juliet Hill asked hesitantly.
Su smiled and shook her head: "It's just an ornament; it only has value when worn by the right person."
Juliet Hill covered her mouth and chuckled: "With your gift, I think the fright I just had is nothing anymore, but... I'm a little worried about that little girl."
"Let me take you home first, and I'll take care of the rest."
Juliet Hill shook her head: "Actually, you really don't need to worry about me too much. I was fine in the forest, so I'll be even less likely to be in trouble on the street. Besides, I'm not injured. Aren't you the consultant? Go find that little girl with the police as soon as possible. Also... I think we're quite familiar with each other, so you can call me Juliet."
“Okay, Juliet, from now on please call me Romeo,” Mrs. Su said with a smile. “Be careful on your way back.”
"You too, Romeo!"
Juliet Hill waved her hand and prepared to walk around the park to go home, but Sue sensed Eddie Monroe's location and teleported there instantly.
"call out--"
Sue's sudden appearance startled Eddie Monroe, who was hiding in the woods. He patted his chest and pointed into the distance, saying, "The source of the temperature is over there. I just saw a delivery truck drive by, and besides that werewolf, there was someone else's scent."
"He just kidnapped a little girl in Berkeley Park and attacked Juliet," Sue said expressionlessly.
"What? Is Juliet alright?" Eddie Monroe asked in surprise.
Su shook her head: "She's fine, the problem is with this werewolf! You wait here for me, I'll handle the rest myself."
“Wait, you’re planning to go straight there? You…you can manage alone? Also, put this on your body. It’s wolfsbane. Once you put it on, he won’t be able to smell your scent.” Eddie Monroe took out a plastic bag containing an unknown plant.
"No need, I'd rather he know I'm here." Su sneered, and with a teleportation technique, she vanished from Eddie Monroe's sight in an instant.
"Boo-boo-boo-"
With a few leaps, Su Shi appeared in front of a wooden house.
"boom!"
(Good!) A shadow clone appeared and swiftly disappeared underground. Su knew there was a basement in the wooden house, where the captured little girl was kept.
After the shadow clone sneaked into the basement, it indeed found the little girl who had been captured. The Sharingan's genjutsu hypnosis directly put the little girl to sleep, and the shadow clone carried the little girl back to the surface and left the wooden house.
"You... is there something you need?" The homeowner, who was also the postman, opened the door and asked Su, who was standing at his door, feigning confusion, unaware that the little girl had been rescued.
"kill you!"
Su arrived in an instant, appearing in front of the homeowner in the blink of an eye. Before the homeowner could react, Su had already grabbed his head and twisted it forcefully.
"Crack!"
The crisp sound rang out, and the postman, still looking puzzled, fell forward, landing directly in front of Su.
He died, without even a chance to transform; he was killed directly by the Su family.
Chapter 174 The Truth Behind the Collapse of the Worldview
Eddie Monroe, worried about Sue acting alone, mustered his courage and followed her, only to witness Sue's decisive and efficient actions.
"You...you killed him?"
Without asking his name or listening to his explanation, Sue's decisive and swift actions startled Eddie Monroe, especially since the dead were his own kind, which made him feel a sense of kinship.
"Otherwise what? Should I thank him for not hurting Juliet?" Sue put her hand to her mouth, and a huge fireball slammed directly into the postman's corpse.
boom!
Flames shot into the air and instantly ignited the corpse, causing it to burn rapidly.
Eddie Monroe instinctively took a few steps back, whether from the flames or from fear. Su turned to look at him and chuckled, "What are you doing? He is him, you are you, you are my friend. He attacked Juliet, how can that be the same?"
“I am not a person who kills indiscriminately, nor am I someone who is bursting with a sense of justice. If he had not attacked Juliet, I would have taken him back to the police station after I found him. But he attacked Juliet, and even if he does not know me or my relationship with Juliet, the nature of the situation is completely different.”
"the same as you."
“I would never attack Juliet,” Eddie Monroe quickly shook his head.
Su was speechless: "What are you thinking? I mean, you're like Juliet. If someone hurts you, I won't let them get away with it either."
"Phew...that scared me to death." Eddie Monroe breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest, then asked worriedly, "Won't you get into trouble if you just kill him like that? And what about the little girl he kidnapped?"
"I've rescued him," Su said with a smile. "You can go back now; I'll handle the aftermath. Oh, and thank you for helping me find him."
Eddie Monroe smiled, waved, and turned to leave.
After Su met up with her shadow clone, she held the unconscious little girl in her arms and teleported back to the park. Then she shouted loudly.
Before long, Nick, Hank, and the others heard the noise and came upstairs. They were all stunned to see Sue and the little girl she was holding.
"Didn't you spend time with your girlfriend?"
“Juliet is alright, so I went home first. I came in through a side path and found her lying on the ground unconscious as soon as I got here.” Su handed the little girl to Nick and said with some regret, “It’s a pity I didn’t see the people who attacked Juliet and kidnapped this little girl.”
"He must have been scared away. It's okay, we'll catch him."
Nick and Hank planned to take the little girl to the hospital for a check-up first, then return to the police station to file a case, while the other colleagues stayed behind to continue searching for clues.
Sue didn't go back to the police station with them; instead, he went home to be with Juliet. Everyone could understand that, since he was just an advisor and had no obligation to go along with the investigation. Besides, his girlfriend was frightened, so it was normal for him to go back and keep her company.
"Why are you back?" Juliet Hill, who had just arrived home, was taken aback when she saw Sue suddenly return. She then said, "I'm really fine, don't worry about me."
Sue shook her head: "I found the kidnapped little girl in the park. Nick and the others will continue to investigate the attacker and the kidnapper."
"Really? Is the little girl alright?"
"It should be nothing serious."
"That's good." Juliet Hill breathed a sigh of relief, and said with some sadness, "I didn't think much of it when you asked Monroe about the safety issues before, but I didn't expect to encounter something like this just two days after moving here. Now I'm even afraid of parks."
Although Juliet Hill kept saying she was fine, could she really be fine? Any normal person would be traumatized by something like this.
Su hesitated whether to tell Juliet Hill about the Vison monsters. After all, there were so many Vison monsters here. Today they encountered werewolves, but who knew what they would encounter tomorrow? Although not everyone could accept this, knowing the truth was definitely better than being kept in the dark. Although they might have some suspicions in normal times, it was better than being unprepared when danger came.
However… Su was unsure whether Juliet Hill, who had just experienced an attack, could accept a new worldview. Should she let her calm down and settle her emotions before slowly discussing the matter, or should she take this opportunity to tell her directly?
"If someone is hiding something from you, would you prefer to know immediately or wait until they feel the time is right before telling you?" Su asked Juliet Hill.
Juliet Hill frowned slightly: "Are you hiding something from me? Well, that's normal, after all, we haven't gotten to know each other well yet."
“What if this matter is closely related to your life or even your safety?” Su added.
Juliet Hill paused, then quickly asked, "You mean the thing that attacked me? You know what it was? I... I'm not seeing things?"
Su nodded.
Juliet Hill paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and said with a firm look in her eyes, "I want to know the truth. Don't worry, whatever the truth is, I think I can accept it!"
"it is good."
As the female lead, Juliet Hill's character shouldn't be fragile, especially since she later becomes a very powerful witch in the TV series.
Su told Juliet Hill about the Vison Monster. At first, Juliet Hill was indeed shocked, never expecting that such a monster could be hidden in the human world, hidden in daily life. But she was calm, or rather, she accepted it very quickly.
"So the monster that attacked me was actually a werewolf. No wonder you asked me why I was wearing red, brought up Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf, and apologized to me."
Juliet Hill suddenly realized, then emphasized seriously, "Actually, my attack had nothing to do with you or the person in red. I wasn't his target; I just happened to discover him kidnapping. But if he really is a werewolf, can the police find him and catch him?"
"They probably won't be able to catch them."
"What should we do? Will he come out and attack the person in red again?"
“No, not anymore.” Madam Su shook her head: “I killed him.”
“Wh-what?” Juliet Hill was stunned again. “You said you killed him? You…”
