[GYEE] A different path(Eng version)

First encounter

One evening at Red Harbor, Chi Guo entered his familiar city. This was the place where he grew up and the place he loved so much. Now, it was just a memory. Now, he is Chi Guo - An Evil Slayer with the responsibility of protecting the world from the Shadow threat, but perhaps the hardest part was the darkness in people's hearts.

A loud explosion sounded in the distance, and people screamed. Chi Guo immediately ran to the scene.

Scene change.

Red Harbor, a port city, a place where many wealthy merchants trade. Recently, the number of stolen goods has been frequent, making everyone worried. Santos - An Evil Punisher, was hired by a merchant to solve this problem. Through his investigation, he learned that this robbery was related to a notorious criminal with the nickname "Boomer" - he attacked the transit warehouses, robbed valuable items, and then disappeared into nothingness. No one knows what he did with those goods.

Dawn, Santos enters Red Harbor.

Santos: Interesting case, let's give this thief a taste of democracy, Graci.

Graci: Wolf wolf

Wandering between the markets and the cargo ships, Santos has found a clue where the thief might appear next. It is a food from the warehouse that was transferred at 4pm this afternoon. Grasping the situation, Santos and Graci hide in a boat near the warehouse and wait for the thief to appear.

Red Harbor, 4pm as the sun is floating on the waves. Santos and Graci are hiding. Suddenly, a suspicious figure approaches the warehouse.

Santos: The target has appeared.

The figure stands in front of the warehouse, slowly reaching out a suspicious device in front of the warehouse door.

Santos: It's a small bomb. Graci, are you ready?

Graci: Wolf wolf

Before the thief can place the bomb in the warehouse. A black bullet flew past the bomb he was holding. Startled, the thief quickly hid his weapon and immediately ran into the market.

Santos: Unfortunate, Graci. The hunting time has begun.

Although it was already 4pm, the market was still crowded with merchants and traders, the thief used this advantage to blend into the crowd to avoid being chased and because of the crowd, Santos could not use his gun. Fortunately, with superior sense of smell, Graci was still able to follow the scent trail left by the thief. Together, Santos and Graci tracked down and chased after the thief. While chasing, Graci suddenly stopped.

Santos: What's wrong, Graci.

Graci looked at the cargo box 2 metres away from them. Glancing over, Santos discovered the explosive device left by the thief. Santos immediately approached the box, looked at it for a few seconds and immediately picked it up and threw it into the air. The box exploded, fortunately it was only a small explosion that did not cause any damage. However, it startled everyone in the market, causing panic and chaos, making the hunt more difficult.

Frustration, Santos and Graci immediately chased after the criminal.

It was almost 5:30 pm, this time, the criminal was not so lucky this time. He was cornered in the harbor corridor. Santos and Graci stood in front of the alley and slowly walked in.

Boomer: Who are you?

Pointing the gun at the criminal

Santos: I am Santos, you must pay for the price for your actions.

Boomer smiled: It seems you are too confident in your abilities. Those who want to capture me often do not have good results.

As soon as he finished speaking, two crates next to Santos suddenly exploded, but just in time for Santos to fire a shot at the criminal.

BOOM. The loud explosion shook the surrounding ships.

When the dust and smoke gradually cleared. The thief had disappeared.

Santos discovered that he had no injuries. In front of him, an arcana shield had been erected. However, it also blocked the bullet that Santos had fired at the thief.

Chi Guo stepped in,

Chi Guo: Luckily, the shield I set up was just in time and you're still safe.

Extending his hand

Chi Guo: Hello, I'm Chi Guo - A traveling Evil Slayer, I saw you chasing the criminal I was also looking for...

Before he could finish, Santos pushed Chi Guo's hand away and looked annoyed.

Santos: I could have killed the thief. I didn't need your help.

Graci growled

Surprised by the rude action, Chi Guo felt a little annoyed.

Santos asked Graci to track the criminal, but this time it seemed that Graci had lost track of the criminal due to the dust from the explosion.

Santos sighed in frustration. When things calmed down. He looked back and walked towards Chi Guo.

Santos: I'm Santos, this is my business card for the investigation department in Red Harbor. If you find any clues about the criminal, please contact me.

Chi Guo: Umm, okay.

As soon as Santos and Graci finished speaking, they walked back to the harbor. Leaving Chi Guo bewildered.

Chi Guo thought: "How can a well-dressed, rich person be so rude?"

Ignoring the thought, Chi Guo also returned to the harbor. The sunlight had gradually set on the sea, leaving Red Harbor in silence.

Feeling hungry, Chi Guo stopped by a familiar restaurant that he had eaten at when he was a child. Here, the specialty was the extremely famous takoyaki.

Chi Guo: A portion of 10 pieces of Takoyaki.

The grandma who is the owner of the place: Hello Chi Guo, it's been a long time since I've seen you eat. How have you been?

Chi Guo: I'm fine, it's just that work has kept me busy lately, ma.

The grandma: You've worked hard, haven't you? Tonight, I'll make you a special takoyaki that you always love tonight.

Chi Guo smiled: Thank you, love u madam.

While waiting for the food, Chi Guo heard the sound of a dog. Looking around, Chi Guo suddenly realized that Santos was sitting not far from his table.

Santos and Chi Guo's eyes suddenly met. After looking at each other for a while, Grandma placed the food in front of Chi Guo. Startled, Chi Guo focused on the hot, crispy, soft food in front of him. While eating, Chi Guo briefly thought

"Why does Santos always wear sunglasses?" Ignoring it, Chi Guo continued to focus on his food

After finishing his meal, Chi Guo took out money and gave it to the owner.

The grandma: The man sat at the table with a dog, already paid for your portion, so you don't need to pay anymore.

Chi Guo turned his head to look at Santos's table, but he was gone.

Next time, I will definitely pay him back.
