Anime: Desolate Darkness

When Hikawa Makoto walked up to them, he harshly reprimanded Sanbashi and Ito, then turned to look at the man in a suit.

However, in a moment, he was frightened by the man's unique appearance, causing his whole body to shudder.

“Don’t run around dressed like this so late! You’ll scare others!” Hikawa Makoto mistakenly thought that the other party was just playing a role-playing game, so he gave him some verbal instruction.

The accused vampire could no longer bear the annoying words and suddenly pounced on Hikawa Makoto!

"Be careful!" Seeing this, Shinji Ito on the side hurriedly pushed Hikawa Makoto away, and at the same time he quickly dodged to the side to avoid the attack.

"What the hell is going on?!" Hikawa Makoto had no idea what was going on.

At this moment, Mihashi Takashi, who was kneeling on the ground, quickly stood up and hid behind Hikawa Makoto. He pointed at the vampire that flew several meters away because of missing the target and shouted, "Officer! This guy is a real vampire! We just saw it bite a woman to death!"

In the past, Hikawa Cheng might have thought they were joking, but now the world was in such chaos that all kinds of monsters appeared, and he couldn't afford to question too much.

"Don't move!" He immediately pulled out the revolver from his waist and aimed at the vampire.

Since this vampire was recently converted, it has not yet clearly understood its own abilities and still retains a subconscious fear of guns, forcing it to be frightened by Bingchuan Cheng's orders and not dare to act rashly.

Hikawa Makoto himself wasn't sure whether the pistol would work. Seeing that the other party didn't move, he quickly used the pager hanging on his chest to call for help.

"Call, call, this is police number 9527. A criminal with a gun has appeared at the intersection of Fuyuan Commercial Street and Erdao. We need a lot of police support. The other party has held two hostages."

During the interrogation, he stared at the vampire with his eyes fixed, and did not dare to move the gun away at all.

When the vampire heard that a large number of police were coming, he didn't care about anything else. He immediately turned around and jumped away from everyone's sight.

"Si Guoyi!!" x2

Seeing with their own eyes that the terrifying vampire was scared away by Hikawa Makoto, Ito and the others shouted in admiration.

After the exclamation, the two people, exhausted both physically and mentally, sat down on the ground helplessly, patting their chests continuously, feeling lucky that they were able to survive.

Bingchuan Cheng carefully observed the surroundings and confirmed that there was nothing unusual before going over to ask the two people what had happened.

Upon learning that there was a murdered woman in an alley not far away, he asked the two to wait there while he rushed over alone.

"Why are you two following me?"

Seeing two people catching up with him, Hikawa Makoto was very confused.

"We are afraid that the vampire will come back..." Ito explained with difficulty.

"Reinforcements will be arriving soon, you don't have to worry about it."

"Although they will arrive soon, they haven't arrived yet! It's more reassuring to follow the police officer with a gun in hand." Sanqiao stated his point of view seriously.

Hearing this, Bingchuan Cheng stopped arguing and acquiesced to their actions.

The three of them continued to move forward. As they walked, Sanqiao suddenly asked, "Officer, why did you say that there were armed gangsters when you requested support just now?"

At this time, Ito also turned his gaze to Hikawa Makoto, obviously also curious about this question.

Hikawa Makoto was silent for a moment before answering, "Nothing, but if I report directly that I encountered a vampire, they will definitely keep asking questions, and they may even suspect that I am drunk or mentally ill.

In this case, not only will the speed of support be slowed down, but the number of people coming to support may also be very small due to half-belief and half-doubt. In this case, we will all face huge risks. "

The two suddenly realized and admired each other for being able to think calmly in such a crisis.

In a blink of an eye, they arrived at the place where they first encountered the vampire.

There was a lot of blood residue on the walls and the ground, but there was no sign of the female victim mentioned by Sanqiao and the other man.

"Has it been transferred away?" Bingchuan Cheng took out a flashlight and took a closer look, confirming that the blood was left there not long ago.

Takashi Mihashi at the back was looking around nervously, afraid that a vampire would suddenly pop out from a corner.

At the same time, he said to Hikawa Makoto in a trembling voice: "Officer...Officer, do you think there is a possibility that the woman has also become a vampire?"

"Also turned into a vampire?" Hikawa Makoto frowned.

"That's right. Isn't that how urban legends spread? Anyone bitten by a vampire will also become a vampire."

According to Mihashi Takashi's words, Hikawa Makoto analyzed the situation.

Logically speaking, the vampires they know only suck blood and do not eat humans.

If the other party chose to move the body in order to avoid leaving any evidence, they should have cleaned up the crime scene at the same time.

However, there are still obvious traces of blood here, which makes Hikawa Makoto wonder whether the woman has been infected and become a new vampire as Sanbashi said.

Of course, everything is just speculation and inference at the moment, and Bingchuan Cheng will not draw conclusions easily.

After all, there is another possibility - maybe the vampire didn't have time to clean up the scene, or had to move the body away first for other reasons.

Until there is more conclusive evidence, no hypothesis can be completely ruled out.

Not long after, the large force arrived. After listening to Bingchuan Cheng's report, everyone felt nervous.

With permission from their superiors, they temporarily blocked the surrounding roads and, based on the surveillance footage at the scene, saw the vampire.

I was originally thinking of finding out the other party's whereabouts through surveillance, but I didn't expect that the other party would escape the range of all surveillance with that one jump.

……

Inside the police station.

"Officer, is this all right?"

Ito handed the confessions written by himself and Mihashi to Hikawa Makoto.

Hikawa Makoto took it and looked at it carefully before nodding, "Okay, you can go home now. Don't let your family worry."

After that, he handed the two confessions to the police officer beside him and led the two men out.

At the entrance of the police station, he stopped the two people who were about to leave and said, "Your name is Ito and Mihashi, right? Come with me, I'll take you back."

It was already very late, and he was worried about letting the two students walk at night, especially since they had just experienced such a crisis.

Mihashi and Ito were overjoyed, looked at each other, and quickly followed Hikawa Makoto to the parking barrier.
