Chapter 86: Forks unusual Folks

"That's right, I've already taken that big guy through three states; this is the fourth one."

"Excellent choice. My name is Charlie. Welcome to Forks. I believe you'll have an unforgettable time here. This is my daughter, Bella, who has just moved here from Phoenix to stay with me for a while."

Thanks to Bi Xiao's enthusiastic and trustworthy demeanor, along with his good looks and charm, Officer Charlie warmly welcomed him.

Bi Xiao introduced himself with a smile: "John Shaw, from New York. My dream is to become a great hunter and traveler."

Indeed, that was what he was doing, though his prey might be somewhat diverse, and his travel destinations might not be limited to just Earth.

Officer Charlie, unaware of the full extent of this, responded with a smile, "That's a wonderful dream. There's a hunting ground near Forks owned by my friend, Old Merck. If you need, I can introduce you. There are plenty of game there."

"Thank you, I'll try it if I get the chance."

The girl named Bella appeared to be introverted, but her features were very delicate and beautiful, though her face seemed to carry some worries.

However, as she looked at Bi Xiao, there was a flash of amazement in her eyes.

After some conversation, Bi Xiao offered, "I have a towing device here. Perhaps I can tow your car to the repair shop."

"Thank you, Shaw."

"Just a small favor."

After speaking, Bi Xiao returned to his RV, drove it in front of the police car, and then backed up a short distance. From the storage compartment of the RV, he took out a towing device, similar in structure to a train coupling, which could stabilize the distance between the two vehicles.

Even if there was no one in the towed car, it could still be pulled along.

This device could also be extended to help pull cars out of ditches, and it was a standard piece of equipment in his RV, designed to handle any situation.

After all, anything can happen in the wild.

As long as the money is there, the service must be up to par.

This is one of the few advantages of a capitalist society.

Bi Xiao also invited the two to ride in the RV, which had enough space in the front seats to accommodate four people.

Officer Charlie sat in the passenger seat, and Bella sat in the back. As they drove, they chatted. Charlie and Bella's mother had divorced; Bella had been living with her mother, but her mother and new husband were going on a honeymoon trip, so Bella needed to leave Phoenix and stay with her father, Charlie, in Forks.

She would also attend her senior year of high school there.

Bella was eighteen years old, standing at five feet six inches, with very fair skin, chocolate-brown eyes, and long, straight, thick, dark brown hair.

She was a very quiet girl, but Bi Xiao could see that her quietness was more due to unease and unfamiliarity with her new surroundings.

Charlie introduced Forks, a town with a population of 3,120, where he was the police chief.

Bi Xiao shared some of his travel experiences, being very adept at conversation and storytelling, which impressed Charlie and even captivated the quiet Bella with tales of his solo travels and the many cultural landscapes he had seen.

She participated in several conversations.

After chatting for a while, they soon entered Forks. Though a small town, it was well-developed and quite modern. Due to its geographical location, most houses were integrated with the surrounding forests and vegetation, giving a close-to-nature feel.

Following Charlie's directions, Bi Xiao drove to a repair shop in town. The shop owner, a middle-aged white man, was well-acquainted with Charlie. With the help of the owner and his employees, they parked the car in the shop.

Afterward, Bi Xiao took Charlie and Bella to Charlie's house.

On the way, Charlie invited Bi Xiao to join them for dinner at his house to show his gratitude.

Bi Xiao accepted the invitation. Charlie's house was a standard two-story detached home with a lawn, well-maintained vegetation, and moss-covered trees. It was not overly luxurious but looked quite nice.

Bi Xiao parked his RV in a slightly muddy spot in front of the house.

After getting out, Charlie and Bella got out as well and invited Bi Xiao inside. However, considering that Charlie and Bella hadn't seen each other in a long time, Bi Xiao politely declined, suggesting he go into town to buy some supplies instead.

Charlie was a bit surprised by Bi Xiao's understanding but appreciated it even more.

Bi Xiao retrieved a black Ducati 749s motorcycle from the back of his RV, with a sleek exterior and a powerful four-stroke twin-cylinder engine, capable of 157 horsepower, making it a dream for motorcycle enthusiasts.

He rode the motorcycle into the town center.

There, he found a variety of shops and supermarkets. He bought some groceries, drinks, and fruits. As he stepped out, many people were admiring the black Ducati 749s, but he paid them no mind and paused as if sensing something.

He turned to look in a particular direction, his eyes flashing with a golden glow.

"What is this feeling?"

"Is someone trying to foresee me with some ability?"

Bi Xiao's lips curved into a playful smile. This small town was more interesting than he had imagined. The presence of entirely non-human auras suggested that two different races lived peacefully here. There must be some hidden interesting stories.

However, Bi Xiao was not very interested in them.

These two groups were too weak and did not offer much experience. Killing them would be a waste of his time, and since he was currently traveling, as long as they didn't provoke him, he would act as if he knew nothing.

But if they sought death, he wouldn't mind reaping a few lives.

With a roar, he mounted his Ducati, placed the bags securely, twisted the throttle, and with a thunderous roar, he disappeared down the street.
