Kanagawa Taoist College Students

In the bustling streets at night, people were still passing through, and Li Xuehao and his party were among them.

"Miss Anne, are you really my ancestor?" After experiencing what happened in the church, Alice asked directly without so much beating around the bush.

"Yeah." Anne Dracula nodded and glanced at someone next to her, "But I have no children. You should be a direct descendant of my brother Andrew."

"Andrew?" Alice looked confused.

"He is dead, at the hands of the exorcist." Anne Dracula sighed, with a hint of nostalgia.

Alice has accepted the fact that vampires will die, after all, she has just seen it, but she still has a different feeling when she hears that her direct ancestor died: "Exorcist, is it like Mr. Otsuka?"

"It's almost the same, but that Otsuka... he didn't use the traditional method of an exorcist, but the Chinese magic..." Anne Dracula said.

"So what's the difference between the exorcist's method and the Chinese magic?" Alice was like a curious baby, very interested in any novel question.

"Exorcists are not scary. Their so-called exorcism methods are limited, but the Chinese...an ancient country that has been inherited for thousands of years has all kinds of terrifying and deadly spells. Our family will never set foot in China easily, where It's equivalent to our restricted area." Anne Dracula explained carefully, as if she was not tired of telling her descendants this.

Alice seemed to understand, but she urgently needed to know another question: "Why are you... a noble ethnic group, while I, my grandfather and father are just ordinary people..."

"This involves blood." Anne Dracula stopped and looked at the brightly colored neon lights in the distance with some ecstasy, and said softly, "We, the Dracula family, do not prohibit interacting with ordinary people. Falling in love and even intermarriage has become the norm, and children born from ordinary people have impure blood. Generation by generation, blood has become increasingly scarce. Even in modern times, there is almost no blood in the body. Just like you. , little Alice, so you are just a normal human being." At the end of the sentence, I don't know whether it was sarcasm or relief, with a slightly complicated expression.

Alice secretly felt that it was a pity that this was the reason why she could not become a vampire. She asked with hope: "Then is there any way to become like you?"

"Yes, first embrace." Anne Dracula glanced at her with a serious expression, "But I don't recommend you do this. You only see the powerful side of the vampires, but you don't know that there are more restrictions. Although I have gained an almost 'immortal' life, but I will lose a lot of things. Sometimes, how I wish I was just an ordinary person."

Alice is not a vampire, so she cannot understand her thoughts, but the impulsive thoughts in her heart gradually die out.

"Do you know? I once met your grandfather, and he also knew my identity. He was already dying at that time. I asked him if he was willing to accept the first embrace and become an immortal vampire..." At this point, Annie Dracula paused for a moment.

Alice asked eagerly: "What did grandfather answer?"

"He refused. He said that birth, old age, illness and death are normal for people, and he didn't want to be that special one." Anne Dracula said with a hint of pride or admiration, or both, "Your grandfather is A man worthy of respect."

Alice also nodded solemnly. Any dying person would probably not refuse such an opportunity if they knew that not only would they not have to die, but they could live forever.

While she was lost in thought, Anne Dracula continued: "Okay, little Alice, your doubts are over. Don't look for me again in the future. I'll leave you a phone number. If you need anything, Just call me.”

"Do you still have a phone?" Alice looked at her in surprise.

Anne Dracula asked with a half-smile: "Do you think I am an antique or a living fossil?"

Realizing that she had asked the wrong question, Alice looked very embarrassed: "No, I didn't mean that..."

"Take down my number." Anne Dracula interrupted and quoted a series of numbers.

Alice's memory is very good. She can recite the phone number completely without repeating it like Anne Dracula, and save it in her mobile phone.

Seeing her finish all this, Anne Dracula asked: "By the way, little Alice, how did you meet Lee?"

"Koji... no, 'lee''s father is my teacher. When I came to Japan from the United States this time, I was introduced by my teacher and temporarily lived in 'lee''s house." When Alice talked about "lee" She emphasized her tone, obviously still thinking about someone not telling her his English name.

Li Xuehao pretended not to hear it.

Anne Dracula nodded: "I see." After saying that, she turned her attention to someone aside who had not spoken since coming out of the chapel: "Lee, do you have any questions to ask me?"

Li Xuehao didn't know why she asked this question, but since she took the initiative to ask it first, and he happened to be really confused about something, this played into his mind.

"I want to know if Miss Anne is in a vampire organization?" In fact, he had already thought about the identity of the female captain who came from Europe with Saburo Nitta and others. He had asked Anne De Whether Gula knows Saburo Nitta and Shota Tamaki, she denies it, which means that she is not the female captain.

But since she is not a female captain, it is strange to know Marcus, the vampire punishment captain who has "returned to the arms of Cain".

After listening to his question, Anne Dracula looked at him intently: "Oh? You seem to know something?"

Naturally, Li Xuehao would not tell her that he knew the vampire organization behind the scenes through soul searching: "Do you remember Marcus?"

"Are you talking about the descendant who got a little bit of blood from me? He has returned to the embrace of Cain." Anne Dracula said lightly, without much emotion on her expression. It seemed that to her, it was just a death. An insignificant person who has nothing to do with her.

Li Xuehao remembered that she said that Marcus was her descendant. Since her descendant was in the vampire organization and was the punishment captain, what was her status in the vampire organization?

"You haven't answered my question yet, Miss Anne, are you a member of a vampire organization?" he asked again.

Anne Dracula looked at him and said nonchalantly: "Since you asked, I can tell you that I do serve in a vampire organization, but I am not responsible for specific affairs. I only serve when I encounter major difficulties. That's why I came to help." From her nonchalant tone, it seemed that she didn't really agree with that vampire organization, and she didn't take it seriously at all.

Li Xuehao roughly understood what she meant. He estimated that she had a high status in the vampire organization, equivalent to an honorary leader, with high status and few responsibilities. This would explain why she didn't know Saburo Nitta and Shota Tamaki. To her, they were just two small fish. How could they pay attention to each other?

As for Marcus, he probably attracted her attention because he was somewhat of a descendant of hers.

"Any more questions, Lee?" Anne Dracula continued as if she wanted to solve all his problems at once.

Li Xuehao coughed: "This time I came to Japan from Europe. In addition to Marcus, the punishment captain, there is another captain above him..."

"You mean Sophia?" Anne Dracula interrupted before he could finish.

"Sofia?" This was the first time Li Xuehao heard this name.

"Although Sophia is the captain, she is not responsible for specific affairs. This time she came to Japan not to complete the organization's tasks, but for some personal reasons that I am not convenient to disclose. But don't worry, Sophia is just like me. She Also very respectful of life.”

Li Xuehao understands that he respects life very much. In other words, the female captain will also not kill or injure human life. In this way, at least he doesn't have to worry about where the female captain is, nor does he have to go out of his way to find her.

"Are there many 'people' like you?" Li Xuehao was more concerned about this.

Anne Dracula said: "In fact, a long time ago, the vampires were divided because of the issue of 'food'. 'Vegetarians' believe that life must be respected, while 'blood eaters' believe that It was just 'food', there was no need to care about life or death. Later, the Holy See took advantage of the split of the vampires and massacred many vampires. Therefore, although the 'vegetarians' and the 'blood eaters' do not agree with each other, they We did not fight against each other because of this, lest the Holy See take the opportunity to defeat them one by one."

Li Xuehao found it a bit incredible that there was such a secret. Not all vampires were murderous demons.

At this point in the topic, there is basically nothing to go on.

Alice was very excited and pestered Anne Dracula with questions.

Li Xuehao took the opportunity to say goodbye, and Anne Dracula meaningfully said "We will meet again" and left with Alice.

Alice was so excited to see her "ancestor" that she couldn't contain her excitement, so she decided not to go back tonight and went to her residence with Anne Dracula.

…

When I got home, it was just before 9 o'clock.

In the living room, Chiba Sayuri and others were still watching TV.

Mizuhashi Kachiko is also there. Although she has to go to kindergarten tomorrow, it's still early, so she can relax for a while. By 9 o'clock, Mizuhashi Ryoko will take her to her room to sleep.

"Nujiang, hasn't Alice come back?" Seeing someone walking into the living room, Mai Guasheng looked behind him and asked doubtfully.

"Well, she stayed at her friend's place tonight." Li Xuehao explained, saying hello to Chiba Sayuri and others, while walking upstairs, "You guys watch TV, I'm going to take a shower first."

"Want to take a shower? I want to come too." Guasheng Mai's eyes suddenly lit up and she raised her hands high.

"Sister Mai, you have already washed." Li Xuehao glared at her. She had changed into pajamas and pajamas, which was a "sign" after taking a bath.

"It doesn't matter, you can wash it again, and I can help you wipe your back." Gua Sheng said with a smile and was about to stand up.

"You're welcome, I can wipe it myself." Li Xuehao quickly walked upstairs, took a change of clothes and entered the bathroom, locking the door.

It's a good thing he took this step, because someone had tried to turn the door handle while soaking in the tub, but it was locked, so the door didn't open. He guessed that it must be Gua Sheng Mai's fault.

After changing clothes, I walked out of the bathroom. In the living room, Mizuhashi Ryoko and Mizuhashi Kachiko were no longer there. They probably went back to their rooms to sleep.

Sayuri Chiba, Yuki Majima and Mai Kuanao were each sitting on the sofa. They seemed to have been attracted by the TV plot and completely pretended that they did not see anyone around them.

"Well, I'm going upstairs." Li Xuehao saw that they were watching intently and was not going to disturb them.

"Yeah." Chiba Sayuri, who was sitting on the sofa in the middle, glanced at him and continued to stare at the TV.

Neither Shimajima Yuki nor Guanao Mai responded. Li Xuehao was about to go upstairs when the phone beside the counter rang.

"I'll answer the phone." Li Xuehao walked over with some curiosity. Nowadays, calls are usually made directly to the mobile phone. He can accurately find the person. When calling the landline at home, there seems to be no one except his parents in the United States. .

Picking up the phone to answer the call, a young and clear female voice came from the other side. It was not the voice of a parent: "Hello, is this Manaka's house?" The Japanese he was not proficient in spoke succinctly, but the weird accent indicated that the other party This is not my native language.

"Wenwen?" This voice is not unfamiliar to Li Xuehao at all. His little cousin in Hong Kong, Fang Jiawen, her mother was a female police officer, and she was her aunt by blood, named Li Jiaying.

"Haha, don't you miss me so much? You guessed who I am right away." The little cousin laughed loudly. It was no longer the weird Japanese, but the proficient Cantonese.

"Why did you think of calling me? What's the matter?" Li Xuehao calculated the time in his mind. It's past 9 o'clock here, and it should be past 8 o'clock in Hong Kong, which is exactly an hour late.

"I have good news for you. You will be able to see me soon." The little cousin opposite said excitedly.

"Huh?" Li Xuehao was slightly startled. Is she going to come to Japan?

"Yes, it's just what you thought. I'm going to Japan next weekend."

"you alone?"

"Of course not. There is also Mommy and Sir Dahuang. They are going on their honeymoon, so I proposed to come and see you. Mommy has already agreed, hahaha..." The laughter was very proud, and it should be true. So excited.
