Chapter 5 Strange Mission Triggered
"The data is all here." Komachi Akane rubbed her tired eyes, let out a long yawn, and handed the neatly organized data to Kirigiri Shimizu.
Originally, she thought the captain was looking for ghouls lurking in Tokyo recently. However, after investigating this boy, Komachi Akane confirmed that, apart from being somewhat handsome, there was nothing noteworthy about this young man.
She didn't know why the usually indifferent captain would look for information on this young boy, and she didn't dare to ask too much.
"Hmm." Kirigiri Shimizu closed the webpage titled 'How to Become an Excellent Mother' and took the data to examine it carefully. They could only find information about Li Xia after he arrived in Tokyo.
The information was not extensive, only four short pages.
She carefully read every word, memorizing each detail, afraid of missing any nuance.
"Um..." Seeing the captain so focused, curiosity arose in Komachi Akane's mind, and she asked softly, "Is this person from the Yan Country a ghoul?"
Kirigiri Shimizu had already finished reading the data in her hand, closed it, put it aside, and looked at Komachi Akane with a faint expression. Suddenly, she spoke, "No, he might be my long-lost child."
She had already decided to carry out the task of the system, so there was no need to hide it. Mobilizing all the available resources at hand to complete the system task was the optimal solution.
Komachi Akane let out a questioning look and then rubbed the bridge of her nose with her hand. She thought she might be tired from staying up late and working overtime, as she was starting to have auditory hallucinations.
Although she didn't know how old the captain was, she appeared to be around 20 years old. Now, suddenly mentioning an 18-year-old child was beyond her comprehension.
However, Kirigiri Shimizu didn't give her any time to be stunned. With her legs crossed, she looked like the queen of winter. "How do you think I should recognize him?"
"Um..." Komachi Akane finally snapped out of it, confirming that she hadn't misheard. The captain wasn't joking earlier, and it was difficult to describe her current mood in words.
But she couldn't answer that she didn't know her boss's words. She glanced at Li Xia's profile picture on the data, and below it was written that he studied at the University of Tokyo.
"You can go to the place where he studies first, see his current situation, see if there is any help he needs, and then recognize him while helping him."
"Okay." Kirigiri Shimizu nodded. She was familiar with killing people, but recognizing mother and son was beyond her capabilities.
At this moment, the mechanical voice in the mind rang again.
"Ding, detected the keyword 'school,' random task triggered."
"Random Task (1/3) Son's Classmates"
"Task Description: As a qualified mother, stepping into the child's social circle is a crucial step."
"Task Goal: Make more classmates of Li Xia aware of your relationship (0/10000)."
"Task Time Limit: 24 hours, countdown begins in 10 seconds, 10, 9, 8..."
"Task Reward: Based on the number of completions, a final score will be given. After completing three random tasks, a comprehensive score will be calculated. The higher the comprehensive score, the greater the chance of acquiring advanced skills."
"Here it comes." Kirigiri Shimizu squinted her eyes. She had been trying to trigger that random task, and it seemed successful. From the description, she already knew the rules for triggering the task.
Anything related to Li Xia could potentially trigger the task.
Upon seeing this task, however, she frowned. The task rules were simple, but to make more classmates aware of their relationship...
The prerequisite was that the classmate must simultaneously know both her and Li Xia.
There were many students at the University of Tokyo, but it was impossible for ten thousand people to know Li Xia. In other words, she had to make ten thousand University of Tokyo students know Li Xia first, then get to know her, and believe that the two were mother and son. So, this seemingly simple task was actually extremely challenging.
The countdown of the system has already begun, but she did not move, instead she started thinking about how to maximize the completion of the task.
She had already tested the skill of that amazing fall and it was indeed very magical. It may seem useless, but once used properly, it becomes a divine technique.
For example, holding a dagger in hand, when approaching a female enemy at a distance of 50 centimeters, falling down, then due to the rules, the weapon in hand is highly likely to pierce the private area of the female opponent.
Not only can it interrupt the enemy's casting, but it will also definitely trigger a weak point attack. Although it is indeed a bit immoral, when it comes to a life-and-death battle, it becomes a divine technique that can turn the tide of the war.
As the guardian of humanity, Kirigiri Shimizu must complete the mission by any means necessary.

The morning sun shines down from the sky, sweeping away the haze of yesterday, and the whole world becomes sunny and uplifting.
"Ah~" Li Xia stands in the sunlight, stretches lazily, enjoying the warm sun, no longer concerned about the strange things that happened yesterday.
Yesterday, Li Xia saw another side of this world, but he just wants to be an ordinary college student, complete his studies peacefully, and then return to the Yan country immediately.
Even if there are monsters in this world, Li Xia believes that it is definitely safer to return to Yan country than to stay in other countries. By then, he can go to temples and Taoist temples more often, maybe he can learn some self-defense abilities.
Entering the university gates, the surroundings were lively with students. The girls from the University of Tokyo were indeed of high quality, not just in terms of looks but also in their excellent fashion sense.
Various stockings, high heels, and short skirts adorned them like a fashion show.
Li Xia began to anticipate what kind of encounters he would have in this new phase of life.
At that moment, three fashionably dressed girls walked out of the school. One of them suddenly noticed Li Xia, stared at him for a few seconds, and quickly pulled the girl next to her.
The other two girls also turned their gaze towards him, staring without looking away. In fact, one of them even took out her phone and snapped a few pictures of him.
Li Xia quickly noticed their actions but didn't pay much attention. With his high level of attractiveness, it was normal for someone to take sneak photos.
However, Li Xia soon realized something was amiss. The students coming out of the school seemed to be looking at him, including many guys, and their numbers were increasing.
The crowd was quietly discussing, "It's him."
"Yes, no mistake. Whoever goes first, we split the reward."
"What reward? We shouldn't forgive someone like him under any circumstances!"
Li Xia looked at the growing crowd surrounding him, wearing a puzzled expression.
At this moment, more than ten sturdy men walked out from behind the crowd.
"It's those guys from the karate club, why are they all here!"
A burly man pushed through the crowd, each of them looking at Li Xia with a glint of light in their eyes, and they immediately ran towards him.
"What's going on!" Li Xia saw the situation was not good, without any hesitation, he quickly started running.
"Don't let him escape!" someone in the crowd shouted, with the first person leading the way, others also unwilling to show weakness, they all chased after him.
