In a slightly remote bar, Catherine walked in with Pearl, Billy, and Harbour pushing the door.

The bar was a mess and empty, and the silence was excessive.

Some of the tables and chairs are neatly arranged, while others are a little cluttered.

Inside the bar, a man with slightly curly hair heard the sound and said without raising his head, "I'm sorry, we haven't opened yet." If you want to be open and party, then you have to wait a while. ”

"I'm not here to drink and party." Catherine smiled and took the man's words.

"Catherine?" The man raised his head in astonishment when he heard this, looked at Catherine who was swaying towards her, his eyes turned to consciousness with confusion, and he snorted softly in surprise.

"Hello House, I'm looking for Jerry." Catherine pulled down a chair from the table next to her, sat down at the bar, her slender arms and elbows resting on the table at the bar, palms folded on her chin, and winked at the man.

"He's a nocturnal creature, and he won't be there until the time comes. If you have time, you can wait here slowly. House carefully wiped the cup in his hand and glanced at Catherine and the pearls behind her: "Do you and your friend want something?" ”

"Whatever, you know my tastes. As for them," Catherine twisted in her chair, glanced at the three pearls, and continued, "have you changed your tastes during your time away from me?" If not, it's still the same as my taste. ”

"Whatever you want." Pearl replied a little coldly.

Every vampire. All of them are alcoholics who are not drunk with a thousand glasses. This addiction is not that they like to drink alcohol, but only because they drink, especially spirits. can numb their perceptions and emotions.

Many times, the vampire's physique, which is magnified by everything, is an unbearable pain for all vampires. Endless lifespans are not without a price, they are in a constant state of unbearable hunger, which is magnified exponentially by the sensitive constitution of vampires.

It's an ordeal.

Only the moment when the warm blood is swallowed into the throat is the moment when they feel the most pleasure and satisfaction. But they can't be crazy about eating and bloodthirsty all the time. So they need to numb themselves as much as possible, numb their bodies and desires.

Liquor isn't the only way to choose. It's just that in the ranks of choices, one can be accessed anytime and anywhere, and it is the most common. Also the most convenient and unobtrusive way. There are also vampires who choose drugs like marijuana.

"House, help me find him, I need to see him soon." Catherine reached out and took the amber glass that House had slapped on the table. Eyes staring into House's eyes said softly.

"Can't you just go to the door?" House muttered a little grumbling. Reaching out and throwing the cloth that wiped the cup on the bar, he turned and walked out of the bar.

"He knows who you are?" Pearl with the glass withdrew her gaze as she watched House's departing back, and made two gestures to Billy and Harbour with her empty hand, and then asked as she looked at Catherine, who was leaning softly on the bar.

Catherine brought the glass to her lips and swallowed a mouthful of the fiery liquor as she nodded, "Yes." ”

"It's the same old again, but I have to say it works." Pearl, who knew how Catherine behaved, immediately guessed what Catherine had done to House. Let him keep her secret and identity for her.

"It's good if you admit it, a lot of the time. Human beings are more worthy of my use and trust. I was cautious, and as you might think, I hypnotized him. I told him to think of me only when he saw me, and without me you would have found him and pressed him, and you would not have any information about me from him. Because he doesn't remember at all. A lot of ancient vampires do it. Catherine replied by brushing her long hair and taking a sip of the liquor in her glass.

Billy and Harbour saw Pearl's gesture, and after drinking the glass in one gulp, they both put the empty glass on the table at the bar, grabbed the placket of their jackets with both hands, and quietly followed House's back.

"Definitely. But there are very few tricks and tricks that are used to the point of yours. Seeing that Billy and Harper understood what they meant, and followed House, Pearl relaxed a little, and kept turning her head to look around like Catherine, chatting with Catherine while waiting.

"You can rest assured, at least until the potion he gave me is fully effective and stopped, and I get some answer from him, I will do my best to do what he tells me, and I will not do anything cheating and trickery." Catherine glanced at Billy and Harbour as they left side by side, and whispered back as she shook the glass with one hand that still had the remainder of the liquor.

"That's for the best." The pearl's face was indifferent and slightly bowed.

"You really don't know anything about his past? Where is he from? What is the background? Did he never mention it to you? Catherine asked, turning her head to meet the eyes of the pearl and chuckling.

"You don't have to tempt me, even though I'm barely one of the people he trusts and recognizes now, Don never mentions his past. I'm afraid it's going to disappoint you. Pearl shook her head. Although Catherine did not name and say who "he" was, it did not delay Pearl in guessing who she was referring to.

"I have a daughter." Catherine stared at the sparkling amber of the shaking cup.

At this moment, Catherine has a little more demure and sentimental sorrow, which is completely different from the old Catherine, who was full of charms and always had a mixed smile of charm and sweetness on her delicate face. Catherine, who now has a calm face, seems to be a different person at this moment.

"What do you want to say?" Pearl frowned slightly, and there was a hint of surprise in her eyes that had not completely faded. This was the first time Catherine had revealed the news to her.

"She's alive." Catherine's gaze was still firmly attracted by the swaying amber liquor in the glass, "Don, that's what your master told me. He knew some of her intel. So as a good friend of mine, you don't need to be too defensive of me. It's a deal, and I'm going to get it done. ”

"Even if it's not for me!" (To be continued......)
