Volume 2 Vampire Chapter 1 Night Rain
Another three days passed.
Late at night, Clara, Baker District, Noun Street, Chazzo's residence.
The night moon was shrouded in black clouds, the stars were long gone, and the torrential rain poured down, extinguishing the unobstructed kerosene lamps on the roadside, washing every corner of Clara, and the whole of Clara seemed to be shrouded in rain.
Xia Zuo lay in the room, his eyes closed, tossing and turning on the bed but couldn't fall asleep for half a day.
After a few days, after the incident was over and temporarily settled, Xia Zuo finally returned to the house he rented on Norn Street, where he was able to rest.
Although this house has long been a human being.
After Andrew was rescued by the Fallen Duke, the house now lives alone in Shazo.
Living alone in this house, coupled with the fact that it is easy to think of Andrew, Xia Zuo suddenly couldn't sleep.
"I really can't sleep......" Xia Zuo frowned, rolled over from the bed, sighed softly, and then turned sideways to look out the window.
Outside the window, the torrential rain was still pouring down, and large raindrops hit the glass of the window as if it were about to shatter it.
"And it's still raining so much...... The rain was so loud that I couldn't sleep. Natsuzo stared at the rain outside the window, muttered, lifted the quilt, and climbed out of bed.
Xia Zuo rubbed his eyes and glanced to the left at the clock, no more, no less, exactly one o'clock in the morning.
"It's just a little bit now...... What is that going to do for me tonight? Xia Zuo couldn't help but hold his forehead.
Natsuzo walked up to the window and stared out of it for a moment before suddenly opening the window.
"This rain...... I'll go...... Powerful enough. As soon as Xia Zuo opened the window, the rain broke into the room where Xia Zuo was located along the wind, and immediately drenched Xia Zuo's face, and the unique coldness of the rain made Xia Zuo shiver.
This made Xia Zuo suddenly feel more energetic.
"I'll ...... I can't sleep anymore, and I shouldn't open the window to see how heavy the rain is. Xia Zuo faced the wind and rain in his face, and felt unable to cry or laugh for a while.
β...... Turn off the window. Xia Zuo stretched out his right hand by the window, his right hand stayed outside the window, and it was suddenly covered with rain, looking down at the rain in his hand, Xia Zuo said to himself.
But Xia Zuo suddenly froze, and Xia Zuo was stunned.
Xia Zuo's pupils shrank to the size of a pinpoint at this moment, and the originally normal golden eyes turned into golden vertical pupils in an instant, and he looked at his right hand stretched out to the window in a daze, and the rain on his right hand actually had a trace of blood red.
With Xia Zuo's eyesight as a soul descendant, he could clearly see this trace of blood red.
It's blood, and there's no going wrong with it.
Rainwater has a blood component in it.
This night rain...... In fact, it was a rain of blood.
Although the components of the blood are extremely scarce, it is indeed a rain of blood.
"What the hell...... expression on Xia Zuo's face suddenly became solemn, "How can a good rain contain blood......
"It's so unlucky. β
"What the hell is going on?" Xia Zuo stood in front of the window, a large amount of spiritual power radiating from Xia Zuo's body, extending out of the window, perceiving everything around him.
At the same time, Xia Zuo's golden vertical pupils lit up, and the mysterious and delicate lines of the ancient mystery loomed in Xia Zuo's eyes.
After a moment, as if he had discovered something, Xia Zuo frowned and stopped his mental perception.
Xia Zuo stood in front of the window, stretched his arms, jumped over, and jumped directly from the window.
With the outstanding physical ability of the Soul Descendant, Xia Zuo landed on the ground with ease.
As soon as Xia Zuo landed, he hurriedly trotted in the direction of the west.
After trotting for a while, Natsuzo stopped on the side of a house.
Xia Zuo froze in place.
I saw a man covered in blood, with a hideous and even blurred face, lying under the window, stained with blood, staining the wall red, and there was a little blood stain left by the window.
In addition, there are also large traces of blood left in other places, and the root cause is unknown, but it should not be the man in front of him, it may be other people's blood, but Xia Zuo He didn't see other people's corpses.
And the composition of the blood in the rain should come from these blood stains.
Xia Zuo's face was a little ugly, looking at this bloody scene, he suddenly felt a little sick to his stomach and wanted to vomit.
But Xia Zuo still endured it.
As a soul descendant, he has seen a lot of things beyond common sense, and although such a scene will disgust and surprise Xia Zuo, it will not scare Xia Zuo.
Natsuzo looked around, and after confirming that there were no other abnormalities, he covered his mouth and nose and cautiously walked to the man's side.
Xia Zuo looked closely at the man and his surroundings, frowning.
The man had already died due to excessive blood loss, and the time of death should not have been long, and judging from the bloodstains, he should have jumped from the window before he collapsed in this place.
But jumping from the window obviously could not have been the cause of the man's death.
The height of the house is not high enough, and even if you jump from the window, it will only be a fall and a broken bone at most, and it will not be the miserable it is now.
This man must have been attacked in the house and jumped out of the window to avoid the attack.
But that didn't save him.
He died outside the house.
What had he been through?, Xia Zuo thought.
There was a small tooth mark on the side of his neck, and in addition to this, he was bleeding profusely all over his body, and his limbs were badly damaged, and he would never have died a tragic death unless he had been subjected to a psychopathic murderer.
If he had only been killed by a psychopathic murderer, it might have been up to the local sheriff to deal with it...... It's not up to us Soul Descendants to deal with it.
Xia Zuo thought for a moment, and then used his spiritual power to flip the man's body a little in the air, wanting to check the situation further.
Immediately afterwards, Xia Zuo was suddenly stunned.
Soul energy.
Xia Zuo sensed the existence of soul energy.
What this man encountered was not a human perverted murderer at all, but a soul creature with soul energy!
"Damn it...... Is there another ghost who came to Clara to do whatever it wants......" Xia Zuo couldn't help but curse, "No, wait, the ghost I found with everyone on the sewer side before...... Because of other things, I and everyone didn't wipe it out. β
"And I don't know where these ghosts are going. Xia Zuo muttered to himself, "Could it be that these ghosts finally can't help but come out to prey on humans again?"
"But these soul energies feel a little strange to me...... It's also possible that there is another group of ghosts. Xia Zuo thought.
"Let's tell everyone about it first. Xia Zuo looked around, and after confirming that there was no other abnormality around, he hurriedly ran to his residence.
Xia Zuo's house contains a notebook and a quill with special abilities, and with these two transcendent items, Xia Zuo can connect with the people of the Night Veil.
Xia Zuo tightly covered his mouth and nose, and quickly returned to his room under the slightly bloody torrential rain.
Natsuzo took a deep breath in the room, relaxed a little, and then retrieved the notebook and quill from the drawer that he had used to communicate with the other members of the Night Veil.
Xia Zuo opened the blank page in the notebook, picked up the quill, and after inputting some soul energy into the quill, a faint glow suddenly emanated from the quill, and Xia Zuo took the quill and wrote a paragraph on the notebook and added his signature.
"On No. 3 Norn Street, a dead male was found, and the male had a soul energy reaction in his body. β
βXia Zuo. β
As soon as Xia Zuo finished writing, the words on the notebook shone with a faint light, and then the light on the words gradually faded, and finally disappeared with the words.
"Alright...... I hope you can react quickly. β
"After all, this man doesn't seem to have been dead for long, and the ghost who probably killed this man is still hovering around here. β
"Before everyone arrives, let's go over and use the soul tracking to confirm the situation. β
... ...
The other side.
Locke Street, adjacent to Norn Street, Locke Street Detective Agency.
At this time, there was silence in the detective office, except for the soft sound of flipping books in a room with the lights on.
In the room, there was a man with a calm temperament who was reading the book in his hand by the light, as if he was looking at something.
Beside the man, there was a strange crow with dark eyes and eyes on the man's shoulder, and he also quietly looked at the book in the man's hand, as if he was a human and read the book with the man.
The man was none other than the captain of the Night Veil, Anos.
And the raven is Arnos's ghostly companion, Borg.
Anos gently put down the book in his hand, yawned slightly, and stood up, as if preparing for bed.
But Anos stopped suddenly.
Anos: He seemed to sense something.
But before Arnos could move, Borg flew to the counter drawer, grabbed it with his paws, opened it, and then grabbed a notebook with the same appearance as Xia Zor's from the drawer.
Borg grabbed the notebook and threw it to Anos with precision.
Arnos took the notebook steadily.
β...... Someone's got the news. Borg, who rarely spoke, whispered.
"I'll take a look first. Arnos bowed to Borg and opened his notebook.
There was a page in the notebook that shone faintly, and Anos quickly found it.
I saw that there was clear handwriting on this page, which was Xia Zuo's handwriting.
It was written the paragraph that Xia Zuo had written in his notebook before.
This text is no longer visible in Xia Zuo's notebook, and this text appears in Anos's notebook due to the notebook's special ability.
At the same time, the notebooks of the other members of the Night Veil also appeared in the words written by Xia Zuo: "On No. 3 Norn Street, a dead male was found, and there was a soul energy reaction in the male's body. β
βXia Zuo. β
Anos looked at the text, was silent for a moment, and then closed the notebook.
"Let's go over and have a look. Anos said without hesitation.
Borg nodded lightly and flew back onto Anos's shoulder.
... ...
The other members of the Night Veil also set off after discovering the message in their notebooks.
Soon, they all arrived at No. 3 Norn Street, where Xia Zuo was located.
and soon found Xia Zuo one after another.
Anos was the first to find Xia Zuo.
After seeing Xia Zuo from a distance, Anos quickly walked to Xia Zuo's side.
"How's it going, Xiazo?" asked Anos.

P.S. Hello readers, I am the author of this book, "The Moon Shadow of the Phantom".
The first volume of the Soulspawn was finally over, it was longer than I expected, but some of the characters still felt undescriptive and not as good as I had hoped, but at least I managed to finish it, and I succeeded in laying the groundwork.
Now I hope that my second volume will be better than the first. (laughs)
