The sound of broken wine bottles and the meaningless howling of men occasionally sounded in the dark streets. It was not noisy, but only reflected the tranquility of the night. In the hidden dark alley, the sound of cardboard and plastic colliding appeared, disturbing the sleeping homeless man.
"This is my bed! Find your own place..."
The homeless man in tattered clothes rolled over on his bed made of cardboard and a trash can lid, scolding a group of figures that had invaded his personal space in the dark.
Before he finished speaking, two red dots lit up on the top of the dark figure. The sharp white cold light followed the red above and quickly approached the homeless man whose words were interrupted. After the skin tearing and the continuous sucking sound that followed, the dark alley became quiet.
Ian pushed away the dirty body in front of him that was losing body temperature. His control ability was as bad as his 'father' (Zach) said - eating was equivalent to leaving a corpse on the spot.
But at this time, Ian didn't need to feel sad about disappointing his 'father', nor did he need to worry about how to deal with the body. Because this is the southeastern part of the dirty city called Barton, the most... haha, the place least cared about by people, even if there is a corpse lying on the roadside.
It has been three months since I came to Barton City, and Ian has learned a lot about this city.
Want to see proof
Ian sat against the wall on the stained bed, lowered his head, and threw away a pile of documents in his arms without knowing what emotion he was carrying.
Among the documents scattered on the ground, in the dark night, you can vaguely see a yellow folder cover with 'Hermann Factory' printed on it.
Let us try our best to identify the content of the document, Military Armor Procurement….
At this point in time, the vampire we know as Zack takes control of the Grand Funeral Home. When we read the story of Grande at that time (in the future), we learned that the old-fashioned truck that the Grande brothers had a special liking for was made by Hermann. The material style uses the style of armored vehicles from the war era, giving the two aliens who have participated in the war an inexplicable sense of intimacy.
However, open everyone's minds, while the war is still going on. Now! How can Ian, who was driven out of the battlefield, accept that the armor that saved lives on the battlefield was used by Hermann to make civilian vehicles
This is proof. Okay, put that question aside, something happened.
"Is he dead?" The boy's abrupt voice came to mind deep in the dark alley.
In the darkness, the two red dots that had just been extinguished in the dark alley lit up again. It's surprise, it's alert, it's evidence that once again confirms 'father's' evaluation of Ian - Ian's control after becoming a vampire is too bad, whether it's eating or sensory control. But this is also a prelude to an attack.
"Are you going to bite me to death too?" The rustling voice backed away against the wall, "Can you please not?"
The boy who wanted to save his life looked at the two red dots in the darkness. "My name is Brian and I live across the street." He started saying something that didn't fit the situation, but, learn it.
When life is threatened, only the mouth can move, "I'm the only child in our family. I had a sandwich for dinner and I'm a little hungry now. My favorite cartoon is the Autobots. Look, the clothes I'm wearing are his Styling. I…”
The two red dots are getting closer, and it seems that words out of context have no effect.
"My father is not at home. He is a soldier. His name is Benjamin. Everyone calls him Ben, but others say he will not come back from the battlefield. My mother..."
It works. (It’s not Benjamin. Alpha Benjamin had not yet appeared when Ian and Zach were together. It was the soldiers and the war that had the effect. The experience of war was what resonated with Ian.) The red went out after a sudden brightening, piercing The fangs of air retracted. The approaching Ian stopped.
"Shut up!" Ian held down the boy named Brian, his weak body trembled, and he pushed against the wall, "Get out!"
Nothing happened and instead of 'getting out', Brian spoke again, "I have nowhere to go."
"Isn't your home just across the street?" Ian leaned back against the wall, turned his hungry eyes away from the lucky boy, and kicked away the homeless man's body blocking the way, "Get out of here if you want to live! "
"My mother seems to have forgotten that I'm outside. I'm locked out." She explained in a toneless tone.
"Tsk!" A disgusted tut came from Ian's mouth, and his eyes turned red again. He was ready to use the Charming Eyes. Anyway, judging from the past three months of practice, there is a 50% chance of success, or even lower. If you don't try, How do you know
"Why are your eyes red?" Brian stared at those eyes, not knowing what they were. "Can your eyes shoot lasers? Like the Autobots?"
I was about to say "gun" again, but for some reason, I said two more words, "No!"
"Pity."
The corners of his twitching mouth revealed sharp teeth stained with bright red, "You'd better disappear as soon as possible!"
"I've already told you, I have nowhere to go." Brian shook his head, seeming a little helpless. This adult with red eyes but can't shoot lasers doesn't listen to people, but children are children after all, and he doesn't seem to be able to make accurate judgments. In the current situation, he said as if he was in his own world, "But I don't blame my mother. She has many other things to worry about. It's okay to ignore me occasionally."
"Fart!" Inexplicable anger, "What parent has a reason to neglect his children!" We know who Ian is talking about.
Brian seemed to think about it for a moment and shook his head, "Sad parent. Everyone said that dad will not come back. She is sad."
Ian's fists were clenched. If his 'father' saw it, he would definitely criticize him again. Vampire weapons are claws and fists are useless. But this time it has nothing to do with weapons, it is just a manifestation of emotional confusion.
Ian tried hard to control his breathing, puffed up his chest in an anthropomorphic manner, and calmed down again, "Go somewhere else! Don't bother me here!"
"I have nowhere to go." Brian seemed extremely persistent, "If you won't bite me, this is the safest place."
"Are you stupid?!" Ian glared at Brian, "Is it safe here?" He kicked the body of the homeless man who had no reaction to express a certain point, "Or are you blind?"
"Yeah (flat tone) yeah (top)." Brian shook his head, "Will you grab my hair and laugh at me for being a child without a father, and then hit me with a bottle?" This is the southeast, where gang members gather. Southeast, just a reminder.
Brian scratched his hair, "Are you going to tear my Autobot clothes to pieces and call me a little bastard?"
Brian followed Ian's lead and tentatively kicked the homeless man underground, "Although your eyes can't use lasers, you can do this to them." Inexplicably, he smiled, "If you If you do this, if there are your designs on the clothes, I will wear your clothes."
Ian frowned, looked at the boy, and said, "As you wish." (..)
