That means that they must be lunatics.
“Why must I join them?”
“Do you have a grudge against them?”
“No. However, they want to kill me. I want to reason things out with them.” Ming Shu paused. “Society is ruled by law. We must punish people who do pyramid schemes.”
“…” Vampires obey the law too?
The man was still hesitating. The empty seats started filling up. The lights around them dimmed and the lights on the stage lit up. At this moment, the man lowered his voice and said, “I can only tell you the location. As for whether you are able to find them, it is based on your luck. There is a well at Nongshui Alley No. 190. Climb down the well.”
Nongshui Alley…
Nongshui Alley again.
How many vampires stay there?
“Welcome, everyone. I will be your host for today.”
The black cloth covering the stage got pulled to the side slowly. A scantily clad woman walked into the limelight.
The host was a vampire. She didn’t hide her vampire features.
After a simple introduction, the woman went directly to the topic. “Everyone knows the rules. I will not talk any more nonsense.”
The woman swept the hair in front of her face aside and winked seductively at the audience. “Let us start the auction now.”
The woman clapped her hands. The lights on the stage dimmed immediately.
The first cage rose up from the bottom of the stage.
Su Mian was slightly shocked. “A vampire?”
Isn’t this a human action? Why is there a vampire?
“Vampires who made mistakes or got captured by their enemies will be sent here too,” Ming Shu explained to Su Mian. “Hence, don’t become a vampire.”
Ming Shu continued to scare Su Mian. “There is an occupation among the vampires which especially looks for good-looking vampires and kidnaps them. Based on your looks, you will be a prime target. If you were out there, you could fetch a high price.”
“You will let people sell me?”
Ming Shu seemed to be thinking about something. “Actually, we can play a badger game… I can earn my food faster using this method.”
Su Mian: “…”
The man beside them: “…”
That man was obviously a human. He didn’t seem to be the servant of this female vampire. Their relationship seemed different.
This man… the lady protected the man all this time and their conversation seemed normal too.
The man’s attention was caught by the stage. However, the occasional weird conversation going on beside him caused him to lose his focus sometimes.
He saw many humans and vampires interacting, but none of them interacted like these two.
He could see that the vampire pampered this man.
Ming Shu was bored. She leaned toward Su Mian and took out a packet of milk.
Just as she was about to drink, many people turned and looked at her.
How can someone eat at this time? Is she crazy!
The auction moved really quickly. The first portion was all vampires. There were both male and female vampires. Just like what Ming Shu said, they were all good-looking.
They were locked in a cage and had their limbs chained up with metal chains. They were like goods being picked by their customers.
Some vampires would shout in anger while others just shrunk in a corner and remained silent.
After the vampires, the humans came up.
As compared to the vampires, humans were treated better. They were just locked up in a cage. It might be because humans were weaker.
They would be unable to get out of the cage.
Placing humans after vampires meant that humans were more valuable than vampires.
The reaction from the vampires in the audience proved this point.
Su Mian looked at the vampires moving restlessly around him. He frowned slightly.
There was a young boy on stage. He only looked around 10 years old. He was fair and clean. He only had an oversized T-shirt on him. He shrunk in a corner in humiliation.
Su Mian squeezed Ming Shu’s hand.
“Are you angry?” Ming Shu noticed Su Mian’s change. “They are from the same race as you and yet, we are selling them.”
Su Mian didn’t reply to her. He lowered his head and pecked Ming Shu on her forehead. He wanted to tell her that he was not angry.
Ming Shu kept quiet too. She looked at the vampires who were bidding fervently.
Vampires bought humans as food. They didn’t care much about gender.
As the auction went on, humans became more good-looking. The bidding price went higher too. The man started to get agitated. He suppressed his anger.
These vampires…
…
“Okay, we have reached the highlight of the day.” The host purposely dragged her words. “We have prepared a surprise for everyone.”
The vampires below shouted, “What surprise?”
“Hurry up and show us.”
“Don’t waste time…”
“You all say that there is a surprise every time. However, the surprises were all similar. Stop fooling us.”
The host signaled for everyone to remain quiet. “The surprise today would definitely satisfy you all.”
The host clapped and the lights on the stage dimmed.
The vampires turned silent. They waited for the surprise.
After a few seconds, two cages appeared on the stage. Each was covered with a black cloth and had limelight shining on it.
“What’s that?”
“Why is it covered. Hurry up and open it.”
The host smiled. She lifted her forefinger and shook it. “Don’t be anxious. I promise that you won’t be disappointed this time. Let us look at something else first…”
Someone gave the host a test tube.
It was filled with blood.
The host lifted the cover on the test tube and walked one round around the stage.
The vampires below didn’t know what was happening. However, when they smelled the fragrance from the test tube, they started to get excited.
“Oh my god, this smells so fragrant.”
“I have never smelled anything like this before. If I could have a sip…”
Ming Shu straightened her body.
“Bold.”
Su Mian looked at Ming Shu. Ming Shu bit her straw. She seemed to have finished the last of her blood bag in one mouthful.
The host confirmed that everyone understood how valuable the last “good” was. Then, she went to lift the curtain.
The girl in the cage lifted her hands to block the sudden light.
Loud and crazy screams caused the girl to turn pale. She hugged herself and shivered in a corner.
In order to excite the crowd, the screen showcased a close-up shot of the girl.
“It’s her…” Su Mian remembered this girl. She was called Liu Wanyue.
No wonder she said that just now.
“Why does she have the smell of a vampire?”
“She has a master…”
The host heard the discussion going on below.
“Don’t worry, she doesn’t have a master. You all should be able to tell that there is more than one smell coming from her.”
Ming Shu stared at Liu Wanyue. She had many smells on her. It belonged to her and a few other vampires.
The mark of a vampire was like a logo. It proved that this person belonged to you. It couldn’t do anything else.
A sensible vampire would not lay his hands on a marked human.
Vampires with higher status were able to cover the mark of other vampires.
The variety of smells proved that someone wanted to remove the mark Ming Shu left on Liu Wanyue but failed. Hence, they used this method to cover her smell up.
What is Chu Yue doing? Is this how he protects my little snack?
You can’t trust men!
“It is normal for vampires to want such delicious food, right?”
The host talked her way through and managed to dispel the worry of the vampires.
The vampires exchanged glances with one another. The fragrant smell of the blood caused them to forget about their worry.
