Evening, Clara, Locke Street Detective Agency.

As the sun sets, the stars and moon begin to twinkle and shine on the earth, and at dusk Locke Street is as calm as ever, with the evening breeze gently brushing the faces of passers-by while rolling up a few fallen leaves under the roadside trees.

After patrolling back and forth outside for a long time, Xia Zuo finally finished his day's patrol and returned to the detective agency.

For the whole day today, Xia Zuo didn't find any traces of the blood clan, nor did he find any anomalous events worth caring about.

The rest of the Night Veil, like Natsuzo, didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.

After the Bloodline was captured by the Night Veil, there was no movement from the Soulborn Bloodline who had come to Clara.

It was as if those Blood Soul Descendants had suddenly evaporated in Clara.

That's a good thing, though.

Xia Zuo thought to himself.

After all, everyone's current state is not very good, and it is good to have an extra day to rest.

Although it is said that he has not rested much, after all, he has been worried about what might happen to the blood clan all day.

The enemy is dark and we are clear, and we are really in a very passive situation.

And it would be even more troublesome if those ghosts suddenly returned now.

Xia Zuo suddenly remembered the tooth and blood soul ghosts that they had teamed up with the Shadow Order to defeat before, these ghosts had not been wiped out by Xia Zuo and them, but were still hiding in corners that Xia Zuo and they didn't know about.

These ghosts can pop up at any moment.

Wait a minute...... Speaking of these ghosts, I seem to have forgotten something.

Xia Zuo stood in front of the office, and Xia Zuo's hand, which was about to push open the door, suddenly stopped in mid-air.

A picture flashed through Xia Zuo's mind, showing a girl with short blond shoulder-length hair and jewel-like jade eyes, as well as Jasmine standing quietly on the side, and Fred with a smile on his face.

Inisa!

Xia Zuo involuntarily patted his head.

The self-proclaimed believer in the goddess of magic, the natural and second of God's choice, Inisa...... I almost forgot about her.

He also took over Inisa's commission with Fred, promising her to defeat those ghosts, and to take the "primordial matter" and "heart of flame" of the fire goblins she said, and also asked for some payment in advance...... But as a result, due to various things, we have not completed the commission until now.

And the point is that she herself didn't come to urge us to hurry up and complete the commission.

Surely she had forgotten about it...... It's natural enough.

Xia Zuo couldn't help but hold his forehead.

Still, whether she forgets or not, since we've taken the commission, it's time to complete it, and it's not too late.

Remember if the flame capable ghost seemed to have been taken away by Jasmine or Fred after he died?

Forget ╮()_)))╭, I can't remember.

Anyway, I'll talk to Jasmine or Fred about it later.

Natsuzo pushed open the door and walked in.

Upon entering the office, Natsuzo found that the entire office seemed to be empty, and the other members of the Night Veil had not returned.

"Ah, this ......," Xia Zuo couldn't cry or laugh when he saw this.

I was the first to come back, should I say that I was the laziest or was everyone too cautious?

I'm still out patrolling.

Xia Zuo looked around the room and suddenly thought.

Wait, something is wrong, if there is no one in the office, then why is the door unlocked?

Was it the captain who forgot to lock the door?

No, it's not.

Impossible.

With the character of the captain, the probability of such a situation should be basically zero.

Does that mean that someone actually came back first?

What about the man? Maybe in another room...... Well, it's possible.

Xia Zuo thought for a moment, continued to walk towards the interior of the office, and finally stopped at the door of a room.

The lights in this room are indeed on, although dim.

It seems to be a ...... here Jasmine is in the detective agency's room? She's already back first, what is she doing?

Before Xia Zuo could think about it, the door to Jasmine's room suddenly opened by itself, and Jasmine, still wearing a black cloak and a wide hood, walked out of the room.

"It's you, Natsuzo. Jasmine was stunned when she saw Xia Zuo standing at the door.

"Uh...... I just happened to have just returned. Xia Zuo hurriedly explained.

I'm curious about what Jasmine was up to...... But my gut told me not to ask.

Xia Zuo thought.

"So......" Jasmine bowed slightly, "then go out and sit outside." ”

"It's almost evening now and the view from outside is nice. Jasmine suggested.

"Uhh......hh Good. Xia Zuo couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and then nodded subconsciously.

It seems that Jasmine really likes the night.

"Well, let's go. Jasmine nodded slightly.

... ...

Xia Zuo followed Jasmine to the outside of the detective office, and then sat down on a bench next to the door of the detective agency.

Xia Zuo sat next to Jasmine with a little unease, and he felt that he had to say something before he could do it now.

That's right, Inisa!

Let's take this as a topic, and just happen to ask Jasmine about the whereabouts of the "Fairy Primordial Substance" and the "Heart of Fire" requested by Inisa, killing two birds with one stone!

"Ah...... Jasmine, I suddenly remembered about Inisa, the elixir master who lived in Norne Street. Xia Zuo didn't wait for Jasmine to speak, and preemptively said, "About the 'Primordial Matter' and the 'Flame Heart' that she mentioned in her commission. ”

“...... Anisa's primordial matter and heart of fire. Jasmine paused, "The primordial substance should be the soul essence, as for the heart of the flame heart, do you mean the heart crystallization of the flame soul ghost that we defeated?"

"Ahem...... It should be about the same. Natsuzo coughed dryly, "I think that must be the heart of the flame she imagined." ”

"I remember we hadn't given her the Heart of Flame yet, but we had taken her deposit first. Xia Zuo said.

"Don't worry, I haven't forgotten. Jasmine smiled faintly, "The ghost's body is still with me, and when I refine his power into physical crystals, I can give it to her as what she calls the Heart of Flame and the Primordial Substance." ”

"That's right...... That's good. Xia Zuo couldn't help but suddenly realize.

I see, it's no wonder that after so long, I still haven't been able to complete this commission, not because everyone has forgotten, but because the things mentioned in this commission will take some time to complete, plus there have been a lot of affairs in the dark curtain recently, and it is normal that the commission has not been completed until now.

After Natsu finished asking, the air began to quiet again.

Aside from being curious about what Jasmine was doing just now, Xia Zuo couldn't think of anything to say for a while, and Xia Zuo began to be a little nervous again.

Jasmine seemed to be still in a normal state, looking at the gradually dim sky in the distance, and suddenly smiled lightly.

"You're curious what I'm doing, right?" Jasmine smiled and said softly.

"Ahem, ah, that ......" Xia Zuo hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to be honest.

"You guessed it. Xia Zuo sighed, "Okay, I'm really curious. ”

"I wanted to ask in the first place, but I couldn't say it just now. Xia Zuo said frankly.

"It's fine, it's not something that you can't say. Jasmine whispered, "I just ......."

"I just made a bottle of elixir in my room and drank it. ”

As soon as Jasmine's words fell, Xia Zuo was stunned, and then there was more confusion and worry on his face.

Drink a bottle of elixir?What's going on?Is Jasmine injured again?Or is it that Jasmine hasn't recovered from her previous injuries?

"Are you hurt?" said Natsuzo, looking at Jasmine with concern.

Jasmine looked at Xia Zuo, who looked confused and worried, and smiled softly.

"It's not. Jasmine replied, then looked into the distance again, "It's just a matter of stabilizing yourself." ”

"Stabilize yourself...... Wait. Xia Zuo couldn't help but be stunned, "You mean ......?"

"Yes, stabilize the state of your own blood body. ”

"But doesn't the Blood Clan need soul blood to stabilize its state normally?" Xia Zuo blurted out his words.

But Xia Zuo regretted it again as soon as he said it.

Jasmine, she probably didn't like this characteristic of the Bloodline, so what if she was unhappy?

"Well, that's true. Jasmine replied seemingly unconcerned.

"But the amount of blood needed varies from one person to another, depending on the situation. ”

"For example, I don't need a lot of soul blood. ”

"But in the long run, it will still consume a lot of soul blood. ”

"So I enhanced the effect of the soul blood by mixing it with other ingredients into elixir and then taking it, so as to save the soul blood. ”

"That's right. Xia Zuo suddenly realized.

I didn't expect Jasmine to use this method to save soul blood, although this is still very troublesome, and the preparation of elixir is very energy-consuming, but it is not a simple matter, Jasmine She is really powerful.

Having said that, being able to use elixir to stabilize the body of her own blood clan may be the reason why Jasmine became an elixir master.

"Are you in much better shape now?" asked Xia Zuo.

"Well, it's much better. Jasmine nodded.

"That's good. Xia Zuo couldn't help but feel relieved when he heard this, and then suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Then don't you have to worry about losing control or anything in the future?"

Jasmine's method can save soul blood, plus we may get new soul blood every once in a while (obtained by hunting ghost ghosts or ghost beasts), we can obtain soul blood faster than Jasmine consumes soul blood, so doesn't Jasmine need to worry about losing control due to lack of blood in the future?

“...... Not necessarily. Jasmine quieted down, and after a moment, replied softly, "But at least it makes the likelihood of getting out of control much less." ”

"Not necessarily, why?" asked Xia Zuo involuntarily.

“...... Maybe you'll find out later. Jasmine said quietly, staring at the night scene in the distance, "I won't say much now." ”

"Now, take a look at the moon with me. Jasmine said softly.

"Uh...... Ah, well. Seeing this, Xia Zuo nodded although he was still a little confused in his heart, but considering Jasmine's mood, Xia Zuo still nodded.

The two looked at the sky in the distance, where the night had completely fallen, and the white moon emitted a faint light, looking at the earth below gently.

Xia Zuo looked at this scene, and his mood gradually calmed down.

After becoming a soul hunter of the Soul Descent, Xia Zuo hadn't been able to see such a night sky with such peace of mind for a long time.

Especially today, Jasmine is sitting next to Xia Zuo.

"The moonlight is pretty good today......"

Xia Zuo said softly.
