James covered his bleeding nose and stood up from the ground, but he only saw the backs of the vampire and the werewolf heading back to the bus stop. Dawn had arrived and the sky was getting brighter. James looked at his blood-stained palms, held his nose and took a few deep breaths before chasing the two of them.
Benjamin frowned until he approached the bus stop. Without the use of Alpha's skin, the senses of a human Alpha are too far removed from those of a vampire, except for the sense of smell. But smell is also the slowest of the senses. Only now did he see the people who suddenly appeared within half a minute of them leaving the bus stop.
The two approached the bus that was close together. The woman lying in front of the bus still kept looking under the chassis. She stretched out her hand as if she wanted to hold the person inside, but her eyes were closed tightly.
The werewolf's arms and head were covered with brown and black hair, standing next to Zach.
Zach held Benjamin's shoulders, frowned and shook his head.
In the darkest moment before dawn, the vampire felt a vibration in the air. Zach, who was extremely sensitive to life force (blood), immediately judged that it was a heartbeat, two weak heartbeats that suddenly appeared. But here's the problem, Zach only felt the presence of these two people!
Benjamin did not relax, he wanted to confirm it with his own senses. Even James who just wanted to get closer was forced back by his eyes.
Zach didn't stop him, he squatted down and turned the woman over. There was a photo of the newlyweds attached to the newspaper, and Zach recalled it and confirmed that it was Delphine Quest.
"What happened?!" James stood in front of the bus station. "Who is that? Is it Ms. Quest?!" James could only tell that it was a woman.
The vampire had no obligation to answer James. He lowered his body and looked under the bus chassis. Sure enough, it was Neil Quest.
Neil raised his face, looking in the direction of Daphne. Judging from his posture, he seemed to be trying to crawl out. Of course, his eyes were closed. From their weak heartbeats, Zach knew that they were both In a coma.
"Did you feel anything?" Benjamin asked Zach who pulled Neil out.
Benjamin, who used Alpha Skin, did not notice any abnormalities. His brown-black fur faded away, his pointed ears returned to roundness, his protruding jaw slowly retracted, and the eyebrows on his restored face were almost twisted together.
Zach patted the clothes that were stained by sticking to the ground and shook his head: "These two people are the only things I feel." Zach spread his fingers and made a sudden movement.
"Is it Quest..." James covered his nose and continued to shout, but this question was interrupted impatiently by Zach.
"Yes." Zach glanced at James. The bleeding on his nose seemed to have stopped, but the blood that had flowed out was still stained on the detective's hands and clothes. Zach looked away: "This is not your case, you should leave now. James, Detective Lance, trust me, you need to leave."
The vampire was obviously not in a good mood.
The habit of putting blood in a wine glass is not for convenience and deception, but, well, so be it. When people, that is us, are happy, sad, angry, confused, irritable, excited... we want to drink. The same goes for vampires.
James seemed to realize something. He looked at the blood on his hands, and his cheeks had clear outlines due to the forceful bite of his teeth. He glanced at this side with hatred, turned around and left.
The emotions in the vampire's eyes are a bit complicated now, and so are the werewolves'. Because the scene at this time can be considered a provocation or a withdrawal. Well, no matter who is responsible for the disappearance and reappearance of this young couple, he or it has the powerful ability to make people disappear and reappear out of thin air, and it can not be discovered by anyone.
Therefore, the vampire seems to think that the other party does not take himself and Alpha seriously, and deliberately shows his power in front of them. You can also think that the other party discovered that your behavior actually attracted vampires and werewolves! The person must be sent back as soon as possible!
Which one will it be? Moreover, the vampire has thought of the worse.
"We have to show Sibella, this is too much like witchcraft." Zach looked at Benjamin, "If this is what Papa did at midnight, we need to prepare ourselves. We can't let him use Grande again." Playing around."
Benjamin frowned and thought seriously. Over the last month, Papa has come full circle at midnight, initially drawing everyone's attention to the Dead Apostles. Then after the Dead Apostles were used, everyone's attention was focused on the descendants of vampires and wizards. In the end, under what was already a conspiracy, Papa wanted to take Matthew away quietly at midnight, but he underestimated Benjamin Wolf's persistence towards the group.
"Okay." Benjamin nodded, "We can't request, they will definitely refuse. We have to go to them directly."
"That's what I thought too." Zach smiled bitterly, motioned to Benjamin, each of them picked up a Quest and walked to the truck outside the bus stop.
It didn't take long for the two of them to arrive at Pai Siying's residential area, which was as dilapidated as before. Now that the sun has just dawned, many people wearing workers' uniforms have left their homes and gone to work. There are also many people in uniform who have just returned home from the evening shift.
The two came to the yard of Hayate's house. Zach frowned, looked at each other with Benjamin, walked into the yard, and stood in front of the porch. Zach listened for a while, but there was no movement, not even the vampire's very sensitive heartbeat.
"Hey! What are you two doing?"
Zach turned around and saw the neighbor who had talked to them. He seemed to be preparing to go out, staring at the two people warily.
"Hello! Don't you remember us? We are from Grande House." Zach smiled at the neighbor.
"Oh!" The neighbor seemed to remember, "It's you! Wait a minute!"
Zach and Benjamin were stunned, and just about to ask what they were waiting for, the neighbor walked directly back to his home. When he came out again, he held a metal box in his hand and threw it towards the two of them, "You will come over if they get it, call I’ll give you this.”
The two were even more confused, but Zach still caught the box from Sifang, which was a cryptex. The two of them looked at the rusty box and didn't know what it meant. "Where are they?"
"Let's go, leave Barton." The neighbor looked at the two of them doubtfully, "Don't you know?"
"I don't know!" Zach answered honestly, "When did you leave? Where did you go?"
"Uh." The neighbor locked the door of his house and replied as he walked, "About ten days ago, they went to the central part of the Federation to hide."
"Ten days ago? Hiding? What are you hiding from?" The two of them were even more confused. Didn't Hayfeng and his wife live in Grande ten days ago
"You don't know?" the neighbor asked in surprise, and then seemed to say to himself, "Well, it's not a secret anyway, it's in the newspaper." The neighbor lowered his voice, "They have a son who left home a long time ago. They were sentenced to death ten days ago, and then they injured someone after the verdict. They didn’t want to be disturbed by reporters, so they stayed away first... "
The neighbor was in a hurry to go to work and had already left far away, leaving Zach and Benjamin standing there, no longer knowing what expressions to put on their faces.
