When Lu You woke up from his lethargy, his whole body was sore as if he had been run over by a heavy truck, and there was still a distinct soreness in his body that had been stretched.His body was under some kind of oppression, unable to stretch freely, he closed his eyes and struggled in a daze for a while, but it was useless to change the status quo, but his consciousness gradually recovered, and he became aware of the gaze that was staring at him .

Lu You opened his eyes, and met An Tuo's dark pupils staring at him without blinking, as if he hadn't woken up from a dream for a while.They slept face to face on the same pillow, covered with the same soft blanket, with An Tuo's arms across his waist, their legs intertwined and intertwined, skin to skin, this gesture revealed an intimacy beyond the limit .

Lu You moved her waist carefully, and breathed a sigh of relief: the feeling of soreness that seemed to be touched inside was just a residual illusion, not that An Tuo really stayed inside.He vaguely recalled the long frenzy before, the follow-up torment of being held in the bathroom and letting clean water flow in and rinse repeatedly... His expression was a little stiff, and he moved his lips, wanting to make a sound to break the wrapping around the two. People seem to have a viscous silence, but they don't know what to say.

...reproaching him for his rudeness?Appreciate the pleasure he brings?Or just say hello?

An Tuo approached Lu You before he could think about the result, and kissed him on the lips.His focused eyes, together with the gentleness of the touch of the lips, seemed to convey the meaning of pampering because it had nothing to do with lust.

Compared with being brutally treated, Lu You can't bear his gentle attitude, as if he has wronged something that shouldn't belong to him, and it is accompanied by the fear that it will suddenly change at some point.He turned his face to let the kiss, which was still intended to go deeper, end, their lips rubbed lightly, and finally separated.

Lu You looked over An Tuo's shoulder, and saw the not-so-bright sky outside through the partially closed curtains in front of the bedroom window.

It was close to early morning when we arrived at An Tuo's house... Is it already night?How long has it been since then?

Thinking of his sister who was still staying with Hearst, Lu You was about to speak, only to find that his throat was so dry and hoarse that he could hardly make a sound.He coughed a few times, feeling like a person who has just recovered from a serious illness, and the time has been confused in his sleep. He reluctantly asked in a hoarse voice: "What time is it...?"

"Ten ten at six o'clock in the morning." An Tuo said, while letting go of his prison-like embrace.A few seconds later, Lu You sat up straight, and then fell back upright after a small cry.

Although the bed was soft, the overwhelmed body couldn't withstand any impact. This fall almost broke Lu You's back, and the blanket that was originally tightly covered was also lifted a little during the movement.An Tuo's eyes lingered on the pale skin covered with marks for a while, then got up silently, and brought him the clothes that had been washed, dried and folded on the edge of the bed.

It seems that this guy still has the strength to do a lot of things after he passed out... Obviously, the people above will be more tired.Lu You muttered a "physical monster" to himself, and slowly sat up again, while trying to ignore the weird feeling of being watched by An Tuo.

He unfolded his clothes, barely raised his arms, which were as heavy as hanging on them, and stuffed them into the sleeves.

The hem of the shirt was closed, like the lid of a jewelry box was closed, covering up all the teeth marks, pinch marks, redness and bruises that could reveal the previous madness.Lu You moved to the edge of the bed, half turned around so as to put his legs down on the edge of the bed, bent down with some difficulty, and put on and pulled up his inner and outer pants respectively - An Tuo watched from behind him, first the soft cloth covered his pants. The place where the wound is contained inside, and then the loose silhouette hides the lines of the buttocks and legs.

He moved the hand by his side slightly, after all he resisted the thought of replaying the process by himself.

After Lu You put on his clothes, he felt that all the muscles and bones in his body had been tossed, and he couldn't get up again for a while.While he put his hands on the edge of the bed and pretended to be dead, Anto got out of bed, folded the blanket, walked out of the bedroom, and returned a few minutes later with a bag of plasma in his hand.

The blood plasma taken out of the freezer was freezing, and the packaging had the hospital's mark on it.An Tuo tore a small hole in the corner of the plasma bag, inserted the straw like drinking an ordinary drink, and brought it to Lu You's mouth.Lu You stretched out his hand to take it, but the hand retracted again.

Between the two options of "accept feeding" and "starve", Lu You chose the former in seconds.He drank half a bag of Liang Sisi's plasma with An Tuo's hand, and he couldn't control his fangs and bit a small hole in the straw.The power brought by the blood traveled all over the body with warmth, and the self-healing ability of the vampire who was tortured by An Tuo began to take effect, making Lu You feel much more relaxed soon.

After eating, he was no longer afraid of the heat of the morning sun, and the serum that had not yet passed its effect weakened the influence of the holy pattern.A quarter of an hour later, Lu You wrapped An Tuo's cloak to cover his pale complexion, and walked beside the Templars who were usually dressed in black. Passers-by passed by, no different from ordinary people.An Tuo also bought a sardine sandwich for breakfast from a street stall, giving Lu You the illusion that "the style of painting has become everyday".

Lu You walked halfway and couldn't help asking him: "Are all Templars as idle as you?"

An Tuo is the most popular candidate for the next knight commander. Lu You thought he would be busy hunting down dark creatures everywhere, but he seemed to be extremely leisurely. He stayed at Hester's place for the past few days, and spent all day yesterday with him, a vampire. Hanging out together...Looking at his performance, Lu You felt that the future of the temple was worrying.

He learned from the memory data of the target that at first the temple held an attitude of exterminating all vampires. Later, with the popularization of holy patterns, low-level vampires were almost no longer harmful, and trade gradually appeared. Gray areas such as places and bars, and the phenomenon of keeping vampires as pets.

The Templars gained power in a way similar to infection rather than belief. Although it will not be stated in the official propaganda, this actually fundamentally weakens the religiousness of the Temple, and at the same time weakens its cohesion.

When some of them began to "collaborate" with vampires undisguisedly, the halo carried by this identity was broken, and the influence among the people has weakened a lot compared to before.However, the temple did not strictly restrain the words and deeds of its subordinates, or take any redeeming measures.

From top to bottom, there is such a free and undisciplined attitude. If it weren't for the unreasonable overwhelming advantage of the divine power over the dark power, the vampires would have counterattacked long ago... Do you know that low-level vampires can be advanced? ?

Although it is very unlikely that only a weak individual can achieve advancement alone, with the assistance of "elders" and other high-level vampires, one or two vampires can always emerge from the neglected and gradually enlarged base. You're lucky, otherwise, where did those high-level people who couldn't kill them all come from all kinds of places come from?

With the attitude of an outsider, Lu You sometimes felt that the temple was degenerating, and sometimes felt that they were just a bunch of idiots who didn't know how to think long-term.Until at Hearst's place, I realized that although she was doing research alone, without even an assistant, she seemed to be neglected or even suppressed, but in fact, she had sufficient funds, the laboratory was fully equipped, and expensive medicines were used without mercy , and can take in vampire guests at will.

Lu You vaguely realized that perhaps the temple's actions were not negligent.Among the low-level vampires, there were some who relentlessly climbed to the higher level, some who got by, and many like him and his sister who were forced to transform and longed to return to their normal lives as humans under the pressure of the temple.The temple only focuses on hunting high-ranking people, and tacitly allows those low-ranking people who are peaceful and quiet to hide in the shadow corners of the ordinary world, achieving a delicate balance of coexistence with humans, and does not object to their subordinates' research on anti-transformation "serum"... …

When he first put it here, he encountered the high-level vampire who was his "elder" in the temple crusade. At that time, he only felt that the knights in black and silver uniforms were majestic, handsome and terrifying, as if they were absolute natural enemies aloft. They are like encountering death.However, in reality, even though vampires have an evil and lewd nature, and the racial advantage of being immortal by continuously ingesting blood and plundering life after they are advanced, the temple still leaves them behind while killing and oppressing. There is no way out.

Although the specific realization of this way of life is a bit... can't be described...

As a vampire who sincerely believes that the group of "vampires" should be extinct, unfortunately, he and his sister to be saved have become one of the group, so the situation is miserable... Vampires, Lu You was shocked when he realized that "the temple is actually being merciful" "At the same time, the feeling is a bit complicated.An Tuo walked beside him like a stroll in the garden, and he was said to be doing nothing and didn’t care. “It’s enough to entrust the patrol team to be responsible for the routine clean-up tasks, and I don’t need to participate.” He said, relying on his body With a good temperament and a good face, he can still appear chic instead of rude while walking, eating and talking like this. "If I encounter a difficult target, I will go to support it."

Lu You expressed his understanding: Every time he is allowed to sweep the stage and his teammates step aside to applaud, if things go on like this, there will be a group of idle cripples in the temple.In this way, his "elder" who has been reduced to ashes is still a powerful character?

"That one?" An Tuo recalled for a while, and commented: "It doesn't count."

Lu You: "...Didn't you come to support when you encounter 'difficult targets'?"

"You can go if you want during the regular clean-up, and you can avoid accidents." An Tuo said, frowning and eating the last piece of lettuce in the sandwich. "I used to go."

I used to go there, but not now.Lu You thought for two seconds, and a word that stunned him came to his mind: "Seductive and stupid... He is obviously the one being targeted. Why does he suddenly feel like he has spoiled an aspiring young man?"

Lu You looked enviously at An Tuo crumpling up the oil-stained wrapping paper, walking a few steps and throwing it into the trash can.After becoming a vampire, he can no longer eat a lot of human food. Except for blood, the mutated digestive system can accept very few things, such as ice cream and cold soup. Even if he barely swallows it, he will spit it out. It is also different from human beings.

The plan proposed by Hurst allows him to be used as a transit buffer, but it can also be regarded as treating him.I don't know if he will have the chance to return to being a human and relive his normal life before this mission is over, even if it's only for a short period of time...

Lu You was thinking wildly, and when he was about to arrive at Hester's place, An Tuo, who was silent for this short distance, spoke. "What did she tell you?" he asked.

This question is a bit abrupt, but there are only a few people that Lu You has communicated with, and the "she" obviously refers to Hearst.An Tuo was not allowed to follow up with the laboratory yesterday, and Lu You did not tell him the details of the conversation after he came out.

"I just discussed my sister's treatment plan." Lu You said vaguely.I don't know if it's because of Hearst's attitude or something else, but he doesn't want to tell An Tuo the specific content of the plan.An Tuo walked for a while without making a sound, and stopped with Lu You.

Not knowing what he was going to do all of a sudden, Lu You subconsciously became vigilant and raised his head slightly to look at him. "Name," Anto said.

Seeing that Lu You was a little dazed, he said again: "Tell me your name."

... Well, I've done everything, but I still don't know his name.It was also Lu You who was negligent. He learned An Tuo's name from Adele who rescued him from the scene of the suppression. In fact, they never introduced each other.

Lu You hesitated for a while, and finally resisted the pressure brought by An Tuo's gaze, and reported the target's real name.

"...Louis," he said, "my name." He smiled and held out his hand to Anto. "Nice to meet you, Anto."

At this moment, something flashed in his mind, as if he noticed a certain misplacement...a question that he hadn't realized before.But this strangeness flashed too fast, and he didn't have time to catch it.

An Tuo looked at Lu You's outstretched hand, and narrowed his eyes at the small pale fingertips exposed from the overly wide cuff of the borrowed cloak.He didn't take it, didn't repeat the name that belonged to the character, not the soul, and before the pause turned into a more awkward standoff, there was a tiny humming sound from under his coat.

Anto wasn't wearing a uniform, but he pinned the Templar badge on his shirt, and it was this little thing with black background and silver stripes that vibrated suddenly.The vibration should be some kind of message transmission method, An Tuo pressed his finger on it, and the vibration stopped after a few seconds.

"...Is it a request for support from the temple?" Lu You asked carefully.He intuited that An Tuo's originally good mood seemed to have turned bad since just now.

"It's Hester." Anto said calmly, and then added.

"The vampire that bit your sister has appeared in the north of the city."
