Volume 2 Vampire Chapter 24 Jasmine Venatasha
Clara, Baker District, Locke Street Detective Agency.
At this time, the sun was already high in the sky, and the warm light enveloped the whole land, and the whole Clara began to become vibrant.
However, at this time, the atmosphere in the detective agency is diametrically opposed to the outside world, and the entire detective agency seems to be shrouded in gloom, full of heaviness and unease.
Xia Zuo and the two people of the Shadow Order converged in the living room of the office, although everyone knew that the plan of action for the future needs to be discussed now, but no one was the first to speak, and everyone was silent.
After a moment of silence, Anos finally opened his mouth to break the peace in the office, and Anos understood that things had to be resolved after all, and silence was just an evasion, and it had no effect.
"So, let's talk about it. Anos sighed and said, "About Astrand." ”
Everyone nodded involuntarily.
"What do you guys suggest...... Or an opinion?" asked Anos, tentatively.
"I think...... We shouldn't just compromise with that ghost. Xia Zuo said loudly, he didn't want to compromise with the ghosts like this, if he really traded the blood clan for Astrang like this...... So what will Jasmine think of me and everyone else? Will she be disappointed in us?
"Even the Soul Bloodline are our companions, and even if they violate the laws of the Parliament, they should be judged by the laws of the Parliament, not just as sacrifices by us. Xia Zuo continued.
"Well, I think so too. Fred smiled and agreed with Nazzo, he looked at Arnos and said, "And I also believe that the captain you promised the ghost just to buy some more time." ”
"Take the captain of your character...... You're not going to compromise with the ghosts like that, are you?"
Others said the same thing.
Only Jasmine sat quietly beside Xia Zuo, not knowing what she was thinking, and in addition, Baird was also quiet and did not move.
"Well, a compromise for the time being is just for a better chance later. "That's why I want to ask you, do you have any thoughts on rescuing Astron so far?"
"Uh......" Xia Zuo suddenly quieted down, to be honest, although Xia Zuo was opposed to using his blood compatriots to exchange Astrang with Ansedon, Xia Zuo himself had no other way to save Astrang for a while.
After all, the current situation is indeed more difficult to manage.
Astron doesn't know where he was hidden by Ansedon, and with Xia Zuo's current ability and the soul clues he obtained, he can't find Astron who was imprisoned by Ansedon, let alone rescue Aststrong.
I'll have to come up with something else.
Xia Zuo fell into deep thought for a moment.
"Do you have any solutions?" Anos looked at the two of them in the Shadow Order, Edson and Baird knew Astron best, and perhaps there was some other way for the two of them to save Astrand.
"Sorry...... Although I also wish I could do something. Adelson sighed, "But we really don't have any way to confirm the location of the big brother. ”
"For me, the eldest brother is very strong, and I really can't imagine that this day will come. ”
"Well......" Anos sighed as well.
The discussion went on and on for a while, but still couldn't come to a conclusion.
Just as everyone's discussion was about to reach an impasse, a voice suddenly broke the situation.
"So, why don't you hand over the Bloodline?" the voice said lightly, its voice unfeeling.
Xia Zuo was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but look in the direction where the voice came from, and the others did the same.
A not tall figure came into Xia Zuo's eyes, it was a young boy with a delicate appearance that even made women envious, but the young man's face was expressionless, and there was a trace of cold light under his eyes, and the temperament exuded by his every move made people a little afraid to approach.
The boy is none other than Baird of the Shadow Order.
Baird, who had been usually silent in the past, actually spoke, and actually asked this kind of question.
Baird did not shy away from looking directly at Xia Zuo and the others, questioning everyone.
"I've heard that your Night Veil has captured a completely out-of-control Fallen Blood. ”
"The blood clan that is completely out of control has long been saved, and it is basically impossible to turn back into the original normal soul descendant. ”
"A depraved blood like this, even if he is handed over to the council for disposal, there is a chance that it will be a dead end. ”
"So why don't you just hand him over to the ghost and exchange him for the eldest brother?"
"But, that's ......," Xia Zuo interrupted before he could say anything.
"It's a violation of the laws of the Soul Descent Council, I know that. ”
"But it's all a dead word anyway, and the result is the same, so why should we care?"
"It's kind of funny if you're worried about parliamentary prosecution. ”
"You know, we, Clara, are 108,000 miles away from the council, and even if we execute the fallen Bloods here, it will be a long time before the council will find out. ”
"And, even if we did, I'm sure the council wouldn't have done anything big to us. ”
"After all, we're just doing what the council should be spending energy on. ”
"It did not affect the interests of Parliament. ”
"So there's no need for us to wait here for the council to come and deal with the ghosts. ”
"It's just a waste of time. ”
"So I don't understand. Baird said.
"Why don't you hand over the Bloodline. ”
"It's a matter of principle, Baird. Without waiting for others to refute Baird, Edson, who was his brother, first spoke to teach Baird, "We can't trade our own companions as victims with the devil. ”
"I don't understand the point of sticking to this so-called principle...... Baird, who still stared at Adson with a blank expression.
"Of course, there is meaning, if we just sacrifice our fellow human beings at will...... So what's the difference between us and those ghosts?"
"Baird......" Adelson was about to say something more, but was interrupted by Arnos.
"Alright...... Don't quarrel here yet. Anos interrupted Adelson and sighed, "Instead of arguing like this, you might as well all calm down and rest first." ”
"I'm sorry, Anos, but I'm getting a little emotional. Adelson couldn't help but say apologetically.
"Baird is still too young to understand, and I hope you will forgive him, Anos. ”
Adelson also knew that he and Baird's performance was a little out of shape, and the expression on his face was very apologetic.
"Well, it's fine. Anos shook his head, "You can have a quiet time with Baird first." ”
"Since you've said so...... So let's do it first. Adelson said a little helplessly, then turned his gaze to Baird, "Calm down and think about it, I'm sure you'll understand, Baird." ”
Baird: He nodded slightly reluctantly.
"You too, since you can't get an answer from the discussion for a while, then you should all take a good rest first, maybe after calming down and resting, you can think of some good way. ”
Xia Zuo and the others nodded when they heard this.
However, just as everyone was about to disband and rest, another voice unexpectedly sounded, this voice was as crisp and moving as a silver bell, making Xia Zuo and them stop.
"Wait a minute, I have something to tell you. The voice whispered.
Xia Zuo turned around and looked in the direction where the voice sounded, and what appeared in his sight was a petite girl in a black cloak, wearing a hood to hide her face, and her whole body was tightly dressed.
It's Jasmine, Jasmine Venatasha.
"Jasmine, what's wrong with you?" Elsa asked in surprise when she saw this, Elsa was almost the person who knew Jasmine the most in the Dark Veil, Jasmine was usually silent and unwilling to spend much time with others, so she would naturally be surprised by Jasmine's abnormality at this time.
Xia Zuo was also very surprised.
Jasmine, what exactly does she want to say to everyone? Jasmine should have nothing to say to everyone...... No, there are.
About Jasmine's father, the thing about working with the Bloodline.
Jasmine, isn't she going to say it here now? Is it really appropriate to say it now? We're just talking about whether or not to sacrifice the Bloods for Astrand.
Moreover, it may also reveal Jasmine's true identity as a Soulborn Bloodline...... That's a big problem.
Xia Zuo couldn't fully confirm what he would think of Jasmine when everyone knew Jasmine's blood identity.
Although the parliamentary reform has reduced the discrimination of ordinary soul descendants against the blood clan a lot, the discrimination against the blood clan still exists.
Some ordinary soul descendants are even more disgusted and disgusted by the Blood Clan.
Xia Zuo looked at Jasmine with some concern.
"I'm fine, I just have something I want to tell you. Jasmine explained softly as she avoided Xia Zuo and Elsa's gaze slightly.
"Is there anything important?" Arnos asked, looking at Jasmine.
"Well, very important things. Jasmine nodded slightly, "It's about me, and it's about everyone." ”
"Only, before you say it...... Let me introduce myself first. Jasmine said softly but earnestly.
Self...... Introduction?...... Wait, do you say...... Jasmine, is she thinking?
Before Xia Zuo could stop Jasmine, Jasmine suddenly took the initiative to remove the wide hood she was wearing on her head.
Everything caught Xia Zuo and them off guard.
Jasmine's face was completely exposed in front of Xia Zuo's eyes.
Delicate to the heart-pounding appearance, a long silver-white hair like snow, long hair like a river casually flowing down, and finally staying on the waist, the whole temperament is cold and at the same time looks extraordinarily moving.
When everyone saw this, they couldn't help but fall silent.
Jasmine's magnificent eyes as red as gems quietly looked at Xia Zuo and the others, with a hint of determination in her eyes.
Jasmine for the first time, so that she exposed her true face in front of other people.
It's actually dangerous.
With Jasmine's true appearance, coupled with Jasmine's own special aura, it is easy for the Soul Descendants to see that Jasmine's true identity is the Soul Descendant's blood clan.
But Jasmine still took the initiative to reveal her true identity without hesitation.
Because, according to Jasmine, revealing her identity is not only because of this blood incident, but also because it is a matter of time.
Sooner or later, Jasmine will have to face the others, with the true identity of the Bloodline.
Evade for a while, but you can't avoid it for a lifetime.
Jasmine can't just keep hiding her identity, she must be brave enough to face everyone in order to do it.
In the complicated eyes of everyone, Jasmine said softly.
"Reacquainted, my name is: Jasmine Venatasha. ”
"It's a Soulborn's Bloodline. ”
