Chapter 69: Blood Spirit

The time of the night does not belong to humans.

The puppy sat in the center of the dining table, vigilantly erecting its pointed ears and staring out the window at the shadows of the swaying trees.

Whenever the moonlight envelops the earth, the feminine energy is nourished. All kinds of low-level monsters such as ghosts, ghosts, and ghosts will take advantage of this time to wander around and enjoy their own world. If they're lucky, they'll also bump into "Delicious Meals", which may lead to them leveling up and growing into real monsters.

But tonight was a little different.

The puppy glanced coldly at the man on the couch who was holding a blanket and purring. Stupid humans can't see that the moonlight is bloody tonight, something terrible has happened, and the air is filled with evil and filthy breath.

A foggy shadow drifted slowly through the window.

Here it comes.

The puppy stood up silently and bared its teeth.

The Blood Spirit, a deliberately summoned evil creature from the darkest sludge of the abyss, embodies the darkest of energies. They were born of suffering and death, and were fed by the blood of the living. They are the most ruthless killers, the most insidious agents, and once they are targeted, they are like maggots stained with tarsal bones, and they will never stop until the last trace of energy is sucked out.

The man on the couch rolled over and muttered to wipe the saliva from the corners of his mouth. A faint layer of white light emanated from his body, making his figure look a little hazy.

Again.

The puppy jumped off the table and silently came to the couch.

It had discovered a few days ago that since the man's mind exploded in the Infernal Realm, he had this kind of energy overflow at night when he was asleep, sometimes just white light, sometimes his whole body floating.

Energy overflow, in this world where energy is becoming more and more scarce, this is something that any species in the Three Realms of Gods and Demons covets, but the man in front of him is sleeping like a dead pig.

The puppy stared at the man's face tightly with dark eyes.

No matter how you look at it, it's an ordinary human being. The same stupidity, the same arrogance, the same rudeness, the same stinking, but there was a strange energy in his body, an energy that even he couldn't see the source of. Although the energy is still very small, so small that a real monster can kill this kid.

And yet it knew he was much more than that.

It reached out and tugged at the man's arm, and the man's left arm hung down from the edge of the couch. The puppy scrutinized the black mark on his left arm.

In normal times, this mark is just a black, irregular check mark. And at this moment, under the reflection of the white light in the body, the shape of the black mark changed slightly. It felt a little familiar, but there were too many things in its memories for thousands of years, and it was not capable of searching through its ancient memories with the power sealed.

The breath of the blood spirit is even heavier. The creatures of darkness seemed to sense the unusual energy in the room.

The puppy jumped on the couch, stepped on the man's chest, and placed his front paws on his forehead. The pitch-black dog's eyes suddenly lit up with two blue ice flames, like two blue fire holes.

After a while, the white light on the man's body dimmed, like a fluorescent tube that had run out of power, and fell silent again.

The puppy stared coldly out the window. The black shadows of the fog dispersed, and they continued to search for their targets.

The puppy yawned tiredly and collapsed on the man's chest.

Let it sleep for a while, it has eaten too many monsters today, and it has consumed too much energy to digest these things, so it is not exhausted to suppress the overflow of energy of this stupid human being, it has not wasted its precious strength for a humble human being, this guy who has sealed his divine power, it will bite him into a stick sooner or later......

Whew......

In the silent room, a man and a dog huddled into a heap, making a harmonious purr one after another.

If it weren't for the sudden vibrating sound of the mobile phone on the coffee table, this harmonious and warm piece of music would have continued.

Gao Qian opened his eyes sharply and grabbed the phone on the coffee table. The puppy sleeping on his chest suddenly rolled to the ground, opened his eyes dimly, jumped back on the couch, found a comfortable position on the high diving legs, and continued to purre.

The caller showed Sherlock, and the time was five o'clock in the morning.

Gao Qian answered the phone without any hesitation: "Hey, it's me." ”

"Have you slept?" Sherlock's voice had a dull tone of staying up late.

"Fell asleep and woke up. Gao Qian told the truth, "Are you investigating that case?"

"Of course, the case you introduced is, of course, the first place to investigate. Sherlock took a cup of coffee from his subordinate, "It took some time for the transfer of authority to take a while, otherwise it wouldn't have taken so long to call you back." Behind her, in the brightly lit autopsy room, a staff member in a white lab coat was zipping up a black body bag.

"What did you find?"

"Found...... Sherlock shrugged slightly, "The deceased, human, male, died of severe burns, no alcohol residue was found in the stomach, and the bone exam did not show any signs of beating. So, high dive, what exactly do you want me to find?"

"How do I know. Gao Qian said with a heavy air of getting up, "That's your job, he won't bump into a barbecue stand for no reason, he was not in a normal state at that time." ”

Sherlock on the other side of the phone didn't speak.

Gao Qian took a deep breath and breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm sorry, I mean, there have been a lot of bizarre deaths recently, don't you think? ”

"Too many? High diving, people are dying every day in this city because of accidents, and I have at least two dozen cases on my hands that I can't explain at all. If you want to work with us, you'll have to tell us more, at least tell us, what we should be looking for. Maybe it was staying up late and working overtime that made Sherlock's energy tired, and she on the other end of the phone didn't sound very good.

Gao Qian clenched the phone in her ear and told her what?told her that the world was full of all kinds of monsters?told her that vampires were actually his neighbors, and that the human wolf probably lived in the same neighborhood as her?

No, he couldn't expose the world of the Children of the Demon Blood, he didn't have that right, and how could he explain to Sherlock that he could come and go in the Infernal Realm at will?

"Detective Xia, I can't tell you anything, if you don't think this case is worth investigating, you just let it go. "The high subtext is cold and authentic.

Sherlock on the other side of the phone was silent for a long time, and said: "Gao Qian, do you know that sometimes I really want to throw you into the number, and lock you up for a few days to make you sober." ”

"Fortunately, your department has no executive power. Gao Qian smiled lightly.

"What do we need to do next?" Sherlock said nonchalantly.

"Remember the last bizarre death?"

"The poor woman outside the door of the Night Raven Bar. ”

"Yes, Night Raven Bar, there was a car accident outside the Night Raven Bar that day, I think, you can investigate whether there is any connection between that car accident and last night's barbecue stand case. ”

"What are you suspecting, high diver?"

"I don't know, I really don't know, I just think ......"

"Intuition?"

"So to speak. ”

"Well, I believe in you. Sherlock hung up the phone.

Xu Zhe, who was waiting with his arms crossed, showed an inquiring expression.

Sherlock smirked, "Look, I said there would be a clue when I called the high diver, and my instinct never missed. ”

Xu Zhe looked at the ceiling speechlessly.
