Anthony hurriedly walked through his small apartment, and Alpha frowned at the vampire who looked so glorious in the early morning and turned away. This vampire obviously came back after looking for some snacks after doing business outside.
The vampire watched Anthony carrying the bag and checking the items inside one by one, "Anthony, what are you doing?"
"Moving." Anthony replied succinctly, "Aisela invited me to live with him."
The vampire's good mood was ruined and he frowned, "So soon?"
"Fast?" Anthony shook his head, walked into the bedroom and continued to clean up, while answering the vampire, "You are the fastest."
"What did I do?" The vampire spread his hands and looked innocently at Anthony, who was too lazy to look at him.
Anthony held the folded clothes in his hand and stuffed them into the suitcase. He stopped, looked at the vampire, and asked calmly, "Where were you last night?"
The vampire took out a piece of paper in his pocket, including his name, affiliation, social relations, and finally the time, place, and situation in which he had sex with Anthony. The vampire seemed to be showing off his merits, holding the paper and looking at Anthony with a smile, "Everything has been dealt with." Red flashed in the vampire's eyes, "Anthony, no one will resist your future."
Anthony looked at the shredded paper, falling from the vampire's white and clean hands and falling into the trash can. He was silent for a while, his tone still calm, "No one will remember that you two have had any contact with me, right? .”
"Of course." The vampire was still showing off his skills, unaware of the direction of the conversation.
"Except Ethera." Anthony turned away and continued walking back to the room to pack his things.
The vampire opened his mouth, glanced at Alpha who shrugged, and shook his head. "Anthony, is she using you as a shield? I don't like this feeling."
Anthony hugged the folded clothes, came out again, and stuffed them into the suitcase. "It doesn't matter if you like it or not, I volunteered. This is good for me."
"What about us?" The vampire looked at Anthony, "What about our apartment? Aren't you going to continue living here?"
"Will you continue to live with you?" Anthony shook his head, turned around and left again, "Then your night visits this week have been in vain."
The vampire frowned, "We can be more careful and not appear in front of other people." The vampire seemed to prove his words, "The residents of this entire building can be under my control. No one will expose us Relationship."
"Then." Anthony came out with the items and continued to pack them. "If another alien does something, will you help me solve the case?"
"Of course!" the vampire said affirmatively, "How can we let you face those messy things alone? You will need our help."
"Then you will be exposed." Anthony said calmly as he was busy with his own affairs.
The same thing will happen again. Two ghosts without identities surround the detective. It creates unexplainable doubts and dims the future of ambitious mankind.
The vampire frowned. He could have continued to say stubbornly, 'I don't recommend repeating the things you did this week, countless times, as long as they don't affect your future.' But he didn't say that. Asked the more obvious question instead.
"Anthony, what do you want to express?" The vampire looked at Alpha, who had already carried the banshee out of the door to avoid this conversation, "Will we always be a burden to you?"
"Yes." The answer was really unceremonious.
Anthony glanced at the vampire. "If you don't have a formal identity, you will always be a burden to me." Turn around and continue working.
The vampire looked at Anthony's back, "This is not fair. Even if we have identities and the cases we are involved in, there will be things that cannot be explained." The vampire pursed his lips, "Mysterious helpers, and mysterious helpers without identities. , there is no difference.”
The reason why the vampire would say this is because of this week's night visit from the Eye of Charm.
The people who are most familiar with Anthony are his colleagues at the Barton Police Department. They know that Anthony has two mysterious friends who serve as his informants and help him in certain cases. People at the same level will not be curious about these two mysterious people, because informants are resources that need to be protected, so no one will be rude to ask Anthony who they are.
The ones who really care are the superiors, such as Anthony's team leader, Cologne. He is very concerned about where his subordinates get their information, whether the information is reliable and whether the source is reliable.
In the end, it will inevitably lead to the identity of these two people. When the vampire visited the Cologne family at night, he spent a lot of effort to cover up these doubts and forcibly implanted the memory of 'unconditional trust in Anthony'.
The vampire watched Anthony silently walk back again, stuffing things into the psychological box, and suddenly realized something.
"You want to draw a clear line with us." The vampire expressed his inner thoughts in disappointment.
Anthony said that without formal identities, vampires and alphas would always be a liability. So with the identity, the situation has not changed. It just puts the effort of doubting the identity into unexplainable things. The alien thing is love. It will always exceed the common sense of human thinking, and such doubts will never disappear.
So what exactly is Anthony saying? Do you want to prevent vampires from interfering in any of your own affairs and completely eliminate the possibility of any doubts
"Yes." Anthony breathed a sigh of relief, stopped doing his own business, and looked into the eyes of the vampire, "Tell me if there is anything wrong with what I said."
The vampire looked into Anthony's eyes and listened.
"This week, you, you visited almost half of the upper-class people in Barton City." Anthony looked at the vampire, "I know, you are just screening their opinions about me and erasing the doubts that are not good for me, right."
The vampire listened with the mentality of always being prepared to rebut, but now he could only nod.
"I believe you." Anthony looked into the vampire's eyes, "What about the others? Will they believe that you just erased these irrelevant things and didn't add anything else?"
The vampire frowned, "Without anyone else, we won't be exposed to others as casually as before." The vampire paused, "I will make sure no one puts their minds where they shouldn't be every time."
The vampire is expressing that he will have complete control over everyone who comes into contact with Anthony.
"Aisela." Anthony said a name calmly.
The vampire scowled and turned his head away. The vampire hated it when his friend mentioned this woman's name, "I don't care what this woman thinks."
"But I care." Anthony turned his head to the vampire, "I can't let her be wary of me."
The vampire's chin was pinched by a human, and he pulled the corners of his mouth and pushed Anthony's hand away, "What is there that she can give you that I can't."
This problem has troubled vampires for a long time, almost ten years. Well, that's not accurate. What bothers the vampire is why he is always denied the things he can give Anthony, such as eternal life. Antony, who even rejected eternal life, turned to a woman. The vampire couldn't understand.
"A real connection with other people." Anthony stared into the vampire's eyes, "It's not a false memory implanted under the red gaze."
The vampire's brows furrowed. Was this attacking his vampire nature
"You have lived for too long, and you have become accustomed to using your eyes to pile up these false and empty things, and then get what you want." Anthony looked at the vampire, "Food, feelings, and connections with others, look at you What has become now? You have nothing. What is false is false after all. You are alone and have nothing. You are too old and too blind to see the reality clearly."
The vampire had to retort, "What connection can you have with her? Are you deceiving me about the conversation I had in the past few days? She is just a person you must use for the future. Your relationship has nothing to do with me. The false memories I implanted are just as empty." The vampire shook his head and chuckled, "No, at least the memories I implanted will last, but your relationship will not."
"You are wrong." Anthony shook his head, "Falseness and reality are not judged by the duration." He turned around and continued to walk towards the bedroom where the clutter was piled up. The topic has risen to a weird level, regarding the racial survival concepts of humans and vampires. The topic must have an end, otherwise, tragedy will happen.
Anthony walked towards the bedroom again, turned his head and glanced at the vampire, "It's like your 'immortality', it lasts long enough. But you understand that it is not life at all, you are just a thing that is parasitic on other lives." "
The vampire looked at Anthony with a gloomy face as he brought the things back and continued to pack them, "I hate it when you describe me like that."
"Because you know I'm right." Anthony's hand moved around the vampire, "These are fake." He poked the vampire's chest, "This feeling is real."
Anthony turned around again and entered the bedroom, but took out a document and pressed it directly on the vampire's chest, "Live a real life, like a real person, my friend."
The vampire passively took the file and turned it over. It was still the information about the Grand Funeral Home. After returning last time, the vampire thought that this matter could be forgotten. But the opposite seems to be true. It's not just catching up, it's doing so in this way.
"Aisela is right." Anthony looked at the vampire, "We all know that if you want to live in this city, you must have an identity. Otherwise you will always be a 'ghost'." He patted the vampire on the shoulder, "I promise you, I will make this city a home where you can live. With Ethela, I can feel that I can succeed! One day, we can become 'real' friends, no People will have doubts about our relationship, I guarantee it." (.)
