"La la la...it's here..."
Ah Chong's legs were trembling: "Did you hear that?! He's still singing!"
The fat man looked bewildered: "But it wasn't me!"
"If it's not the two of us, then who is it? The voice is coming from behind me..."
The fat man looked behind him, but there was nothing there except for the deep alley.
Then, that ethereal laughter rang out from another direction.
"Cuckoo..."
The laughter was clearly very close to the two of them, but when they looked around, there wasn't a single person in sight, not even a few extra footsteps.
This time they heard it clearly; it was a young girl who sounded quite young, covering her face and chuckling softly.
"Who! Are you trying to play tricks on me, Fatty?"
The fat man was bold; he turned on the camera's constant flash switch, and the high-powered bulb instantly turned the camera into a temporary flashlight, illuminating its front as brightly as day.
No, no. There's nothing there.
The less they could see any unusual "objects," the deeper their fear became.
They're really hoping to see something.
"Cuckoo..."
The girl's mocking laughter rang out again, melodious like silver bells, yet chilling.
But this time, the sound came from Ah Chong's pocket.
Shaking like a leaf, Ah Chong pulled out his phone at the fat man's repeated insistence. He took a deep breath and tried to turn on the screen, but found that it wouldn't light up.
Then, the phone emitted a beeping sound indicating that the call had been connected.
The two looked at each other, and Ah Chong could only tremble as he put the phone to his ear: "Hello?"
"..."
"whee..."
"Someone else's photo..."
"Does it look good?"
The girl's voice was so clear it was as if she were whispering in his ear.
"Ah ah ah ah ah!!"
Startled, Ah Chong flung his phone away, but the very next second, a cold, slender wrist gripped his neck.
The fat man was so shocked by what he saw that he dared not breathe—because that slender, white arm appeared from the black screen of the phone.
Pfft!
Dragged by his arm, Ah Chong fell to the ground along with his dropped phone, getting bruised and battered.
The phone, its screen already shattered, shook violently. In the blink of an eye, the ground around the phone was covered with a thick, muddy black mist.
"A ghost...a ghost!!" the fat man shouted.
Under the extremely terrified gazes of the two, the back half of the arm gradually emerged from the black mist.
Its owner slowly crawled out of the black mist on the ground, from head to toe, until he was fully revealed in front of the two.
"whee..."
The silver-haired girl's attire and appearance resembled a delicate, life-size porcelain doll, with an innocent smile on her face.
But at this moment, in Ah Chong's and Fatty's eyes, she was undoubtedly more terrifying than that ragged, disheveled female ghost—
Because ghosts don't exist, but "vampires who use supernatural powers and enjoy eating people" are real "ghosts"!
And this "ghost" was standing right in front of the two of them...!
The fat man shouted, "This outfit... I knew it! You really are Hilulu!"
The silver-haired girl paid no heed. A chill emanated from the corner of her mouth, and in the moonless night, her crimson eyes gleamed like those of a carnivore, dangerous and thirsty for blood.
She gave a slight, wicked smile, and the soft words she uttered sounded like the whispers of a vengeful ghost in their ears.
We found you!☆
Chapter 11 But the beautiful girl is a vampire
As the ghostly girl slowly approached him, Ah Chong shouted incoherently:
"Fatty... no, Fatty Bro, Fatty Master! Quick, shine the light on her!"
The fat man, who had been stunned, finally came to his senses, but the moment he turned the camera around, the constantly lit flash went out.
"What? The power's out? How is that possible?!"
The fat man frantically flipped the camera over to check it, but the flash that had been turned off suddenly turned on again.
"what--!"
In dark environments, human pupils also increase their light sensitivity, and this sudden bright light unsurprisingly blinded the fat man.
He fell to the ground with a thud, and the expensive camera slipped from his hand and fell to the ground.
"Where is my camera? Where is it?!"
...
The girl grinned wickedly and leaned down next to the fat man.
"Oh dear, do you even have time to worry about the camera?"
A wisp of black mist shot out from the camera and flew towards her, swirling around her fingers a few times before disappearing into her body.
"How many girls' faces have you photographed with this camera? I neither care nor want to know."
"You just blinded me with that, so let me show you what it's like."
The fat man, leaning against the wall, stood up and said, "No... I didn't take those pictures! It was the skinny guy next to me! His name is A-Chong! He's the one who took them!"
"Sister, you are so magnanimous and discerning! It was all his doing! Please spare my life!"
The girl giggled maliciously, giving the fat man goosebumps.
"Oh? Next to you? You're really joking. Open your eyes and look around, there's no one next to you except me, okay?"
The fat man's eyes gradually returned to normal. He looked around, but Ah Chong, who had been lying on the ground trembling like a leaf, was nowhere to be seen.
"Ah Chong, you rascal..."
Click!
The girl broke the camera lens in half as easily as breaking a cookie, tossing the fragments back at the fat man's feet like trash.
"I didn't see any Ah Chong."
"Here, there is only you, a scoundrel who enjoys taking photos of girls and makes money from them."
"And also, get this straight, humans."
She raised her right hand, fingers together, and swung it hard at the fat man's face.
Snapped!
"I have no interest in eating you, and I would even find drinking your blood disgusting."
She curled her lips into a smile.
"What's coming next will make you wish you were dead!"
...
...
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!"
The fat man's heart-wrenching screams came from afar, but Ah Chong didn't dare to turn his head and kept running forward.
"Fatty, I'm sorry!"
Ah Chong looked back every three steps, stumbling as he ran toward the only street with lights on.
"I warned him before we came that he might get involved with vampires, but he wouldn't believe me!"
Ah Chong muttered curses under his breath.
"Even if she's just a human pretending to be a vampire, her reversed day-night cycle should at least make one suspect she's a real vampire, right? That fatso! He...he! Ugh! Just wait until I get out of here alive..."
Ah Chong climbed over a low wall, and the light behind him suddenly opened up his view.
"...I'm quitting this business!"
He looked around and realized that this was not a commercial street, but rather a construction site.
The construction site had long since closed, but its searchlights were still on, leading Ah Chong to believe from a distance that it was a commercial street.
"...Huh? It's a construction site? Then there must be a main entrance and exit. I need to get out of this awful place right away..."
Click click click click——
Within seconds, all the searchlights on the construction site were turned off, and in the blink of an eye, the vast open space was plunged into darkness once again.
...
"Humans are phototactic animals, the complete opposite of vampires."
"Hmph, I knew it."
The girl's voice rang out from not far from Ah Chong, causing him to look in the direction of the sound in alarm—
Moonlight pierced through the clouds, outlining the figure of a girl sitting high above the construction site machinery.
The girl in the maid's dress leaped down lightly, and the moment her feet touched the ground, not even a speck of dust was raised.
"Where do you think you're going to run off to, human?"
Ah Chong didn't recognize her, so he pretended not to know and said:
"Miss Vampire, I'm just a lost out-of-towner who stumbled upon this construction site. What are you saying?"
The soft moonlight shone on her face, and a hint of a smile appeared in her blood-red eyes beneath her short brown hair.
"A lost out-of-towner? Ah, yes."
"If the gentleman in front of me had turned back in time and stopped his companion from harming the young lady not long ago, he might have escaped this predicament."
She turned around casually, and in the pale moonlight, easily lifted the construction machine she had just been sitting on with one hand—
A road roller.
The maid sneered, leaped up, and hurled the road roller at Ah Chong's head.
"Suffer to death."
Ah Chong screamed hysterically:
"Don't come any closer! Aaaaaaah!"
...
...
Pfft!
With the last guard down, Reinhardt cleanly and efficiently cleared the area around the warehouse.
"Well done, Reinhardt."
Despite its small size, it possesses astonishing strength, easily knocking out, strangling, or even kicking these burly security guards unconscious with its tiny paws.
It sat perched on Yin Shang's shoulder, and together with the swaggering Yin Shang, they arrived at the warehouse gate.
As soon as I opened the door, a pungent, fishy smell hit me.
"What's this--"
Yin Shang saw that the packages displayed on the shelves all looked to be the same product.
He took out a knife and cut open one of the packages, and several loosely packed bags of liquid fell out.
