"Hum Hum Hum ......"

The vampire was locked in the Demon Seal, separated from Reimu by an orange-yellow wall of light. www.biquge.info He hung his head, stared at Reimu with red eyes, and smiled very sinisterly.

"Don't laugh at that weird laugh!"

Reimu held her head high, facing the vampire's gaze, not wavering.

"Tell me, who are you," she asked, "did you kill the dead people in this town?"

"So what, what is not it?" the vampire laughed, "Do you want to take care of the cat with a mouse?"

"Oh, so?" Reimu raised an eyebrow on her right, "And Mr. Cat, how does it feel to be in a cage?"

"Keep the lion in a cage," the vampire said ...... not answer her question, "not to protect the lion, but to protect the tourists outside the bars." ”

"You and I both know which side of the human being, the vampire, is the predator, and which side is the walking meat. As he spoke, he stuck out his tongue and licked his upper lip.

"You guy!" Marisa clenched her fists and took a big step forward, about to have a seizure, but was stopped by Reimu reaching out.

"You stay behind, I'll take care of this!" Reimu said with a straight face.

As soon as she said this, Marisa said no more, glaring at the vampire fiercely and stepping back behind Reimu.

"Hehehe, hahahahaha......" The vampire burst out laughing.

"What's so funny?" said Reimu.

"Little girl......" The vampire ignored Reimu and said to Marisa, "You're scared." ”

"What did you say?"

"I have killed thousands of humans, and I know all too well the fear and despair they experienced before they died. So, I can tell at a glance that you're scared. Once this wall is gone, there will be no obstacle between you and me, and what kind of expression will you show at that time? I'm looking forward to it......"

"You bastard!" Hearing this, Marisa immediately rushed to the wall of light, unable to stop her.

"Marisa, calm down!"

Reimu reached out and tried to pull her back, but it was too late. Marisa raised her right arm, pressed the gossip furnace against the wall of light, and said fiercely:

"Believe it or not, I'm going to give you to ...... with one shot"

"Bang!"

A sudden muffled thud interrupted Marisa's words, and the force transmitted to her arm along the wall of light knocked her away, slumping her to the ground. The octagonal mini gossip furnace came out of his hand, rolled on the ground a few times, and fell over. Marisa sat there with her hands on the floor, her neck tilted, staring blankly at the frighteningly tall figure on the other side of the wall of light.

There were a few more cracks on the wall of light made of pure energy. On the other side of the crack was the fist of the vampire.

"Yes, fear me!" the vampire roared, "recognize your own insignificance, and die in fear!"

"Marisa!"

Seeing this, Alice hurriedly ran over, helped Marisa up in three or two, and asked:

"Well, you're not hurt, are you?"

"Uh...... Oh! no...... It's okay!" Marisa was stunned for a moment before stumbling in response, but her eyes remained fixed on the wall of light, and the pair of blood-red eyes behind it, refusing to take them off for a long time.

Reimu shook her head and stepped forward, standing in front of the vampire, blocking Marisa's view.

"So I said it, I'll take care of it, it's really ......" she said without looking back.

"Hey, you!" she said loudly after eye contact with the vampire again, "I don't want to talk nonsense, anyway......"

"You go to die!"

"Huh?" The vampire opened his mouth wide, unable to understand what she meant for a moment. In the next second, the sharp pain burning under his skin made him feel the threat of death for the first time in his life, and it was also the last time in his life.

"Demon Ban: Talisman of Extermination!"

Reimu muttered in his mouth and pasted a spell with the ancient Chinese character "extinguish" written on it to the light wall of the Demon Sealing Array. For a moment, a golden light surged from within the barrier, drowning the black figure. The miserable screams, accompanied by the burning smell of flesh, permeated the air for a long time.

"Impossible...... Minimal human ...... Why...... Yes, yes, yes!"

These were the last words of the evil-doer vampire. Reimu hadn't had time to ask his name, but she didn't care.

A few seconds later, the orange-yellow barrier, the dazzling golden light, and the vampire were all gone. All that remained on the floor was the vampire's original clothes, and a small pinch of ash that remained on the inside of the clothes.

"I said, you just killed him like that?" After everything was over, Eryan Yuzo, who had been silently watching from behind, stepped forward and said, "Wouldn't this be a little ...... Not so good?"

"What's wrong?" Reimu asked with a surprised expression, "Didn't you say it a long time ago and kill it if you catch it?"

"Did you say that?"

"Didn't you?" Reimu scratched the back of her head, "Well, that's my habit of killing hands, anyway, everyone is dead, and it's useless to care about it." ”

"Have you ever thought about it," asked Zozo again, "what if this guy has an accomplice waiting for him on the boat?

"That's not a problem!" Reimu said disapprehantly, "What if you have an accomplice?

"You......" Yuzo sighed with a wry smile, glad in his heart that he was not the enemy of this shrine maiden.

"Hey, guys!" Alice squatted in front of the pile of black rags and beckoned to everyone, "Come and see this!"

The three of them looked around and found that in her palm was lying a strangely shaped key.

"I remember that in order to start a yacht, you have to have a key, right?" she asked, turning her head to Mizo.

"That's right!"

"So let's ......"

"Let's take a look at this guy's ship!" Reimu said first.

(b)

On the right hand side is the ancient town, and on the left hand side is the sparkling harbor. With a gentle breeze and a bright moon in the sky, the four of them stepped on the dividing line between sea and land, checking the ships docked on the shore one by one.

Now is a good time to drink and admire the moon, if there are no such to deal with, Reimu may set up a charcoal stove on the spot, drink wine in his left hand, grill skewers in his right hand, and rub it in the moonlight.

"Wait for tomorrow, when I get rid of those vampires......"

Just as she was thinking about how to have a perfect barbecue party, Alice, who was walking in front, suddenly exclaimed:

"Ah, there it is!"

Alice pointed to the logo on the bow of the dinghy on her left and held up the key plate in her hand. Reimu took a closer look through the moonlight and found that the patterns of the two were identical.

"But even then, you can't conclude that this ship is the vampire's ship, right?" questioned Yuzo, "after all, as long as it's the same brand of yacht, the key plate is the same." ”

"Look!" said Alice, pointing to the side window of the ship, "have you seen a second ship with a black cloth completely sealed along the way?" ”

"You do have some truth in saying that. Yuzo nodded.

"And we don't have the key in hand!" said Alice, leaping lightly into the bow of the boat, and then looking down at the other three, said:

"Just insert the key in and try it, won't you know!"

"Don't worry, little girl!" he jumped up, "Don't forget that the only one of us who can sail the boat is the old man!"

"Let's go, Marisa, let's get on the boat too...... Marisa?"

Reimu sees Alice and Yuzo walking farther and farther away, so she takes Marisa's hand and tries to move forward, but she finds that she can't pull it. She looked back and saw Marisa shrugging her head, the wide brim of her wizard's hat pressed low by her, and the shadow hiding her face so that no one could see her expression.

"What's wrong, Marisa?" Reimu asked, "It's not like you!"

"I'm sorry......" Marisa's voice was much quieter than usual, "I want to blow the sea breeze outside for a while, so I won't go in with you, okay?"

"Hmph......" Reimu thought for a moment before letting go of his hand, "Then you pay attention alone, don't catch a cold, and don't go too far." ”

With that, Reimu turned around and jumped onto the boat.

"Thank you...... You're such a gentle person, Reimu ......" Marisa whispered as she looked at her back.

"What are you talking about?" Reimmu asked, turning back suddenly.

"I didn't ...... I didn't say anything, come over here, Alice, they may already be waiting for you!"

"That's right, then I'll go first!"

"I'll see you later!"

Marisa looked up, showed her face, and smiled and waved at Reimu. Seeing that she was fine, Reimu smiled and waved goodbye, and ran into the cabin.

Actually, she was not to blame, but only to blame the dim moonlight, which failed to reflect the tears on Marisa's cheeks, and in addition, she had to blame the long distance between the two, so that she couldn't see through the forced smile, and couldn't see the loneliness hidden behind the amber eyes.

Until Reimu's figure disappeared from Marisa's field of vision, Marisa's right hand kept being raised, refusing to put it down.
