Zhao Wei's body lay quietly on the wasteland north of the Yuejian River, with undulating reeds and flying flotsam. Vivien knelt beside him, clutched his big cold hands, and opened her mouth wide to cry without tears.

The criminal police team pulled up the yellow cordon, and the captain Liu Zhimin looked tired, and the gray hair on his sideburns was a lot new.

Zhao Wei did not die from a vampire sneak attack. From the analysis of the traces remaining at the scene, it is likely that he found the figure of the hostage, and after a moment of cautious observation, he slowly approached from the side.

Kitavia was never there, and he didn't notice the vampire's breath until his hands touched the hostage's clothing and he realized it was nothing more than a crudely made doll.

Kitavia never kills children, and she sticks to her ways.

The high explosives hidden inside the doll's body suddenly exploded, blowing half of his body to pieces. With such a violent explosion, even a fully transformed werewolf could not escape, not to mention that Zhao Wei was only a human mixed with one-eighth werewolf blood.

No one expected that Kitavia would lay such a "humane" trap.

Prior to this, vampires rarely used human weapons, whether swords or firearms, believing that their bodies were the most powerful weapons and were enough to solve all problems. Even if the vampire hunters show up and kill their kind with silver sniper shells or hunting knives, the proud Bloods still believe that the losers are not strong enough to deserve to be eliminated.

They have seen the power of human weapons more than once, but have not thought of copying and using them. Over time, vampire hunters see their opponents more as beasts than as intelligent, tool-wise, and in some ways superior to humans.

Zhao Wei paid a heavy price for this.

In the courtyard of Xie An's Courtyard, Chen Lian and Shi Jiamu sat in the cold moonlight, the shadows of the trees were swaying, the insects were whispering, and the goldfish were wandering in the pond.

After being silent for a long time, Chen Lian whispered about the tragic scene, Kitavia's killing of Zhao Wei with explosives was chilling, this event was of far-reaching significance, she had a hunch that the confrontation between the vampire hunters and the blood clan would enter a new stage, the casualties of human beings would increase hundreds, thousands of times, and the battle would be more tragic than ever.

There was nothing she could do about it.

"What do you think about this?" She habitually asked Shi Jiamu for his opinion, hoping to get some inspiration. After these days, Chen Lian feels that he is open-minded and can always provide some whimsical advice to make her think deeply.

"The state controls explosives and detonators very strictly, and detonating them requires a lot of expertise, and I don't think Kitavia can have everything ready in such a short time. If she hadn't used a ready-made bomb, someone must have been behind her to help her. Shi Jiamu suddenly remembered something and asked casually, "Hmm...... Can you check the identity of Kitavia's descendant, the one who was killed by Vivien, before he became a vampire? ”

When the two returned to the house, Chen Lian called the Special Criminal Division, and after waiting for a while, she turned her head to Shi Jiamu and said, "You guessed right." That person is an expert in directional blasting of the Provincial Water Conservancy Engineering Bureau, a highly talented student, who has obtained three blasting technology patents within a few years of work, and has the opportunity to contact explosives and detonators. By the way, he is also a graduate of Songjiang High School, and he is an alumnus with you, two years higher than you. ”

Two years of high school, then when he enters the school, the other party should be in the third year of high school...... A vague thought flashed through his mind, and Shi Jiamu subconsciously asked: "Was he punished for violating discipline when he was studying?" ”

"What disciplinary action?"

"Forget it, even if there is, it won't be in the file, and the school is still very humane in this regard." Shi Jiamu's expression was a little dull, as if he was recalling the past.

Chen Lian stretched out her hand and shook it in front of his eyes a few times, "What did you think of?" ”

"I'm wondering if that demolition expert could be someone who once drilled a bomb shelter to steal bananas to eat, and the expedition was so impressed that after becoming a vampire, he instinctively used the bomb shelter as a hiding place, which affected Kitavia and dragged Director He there to suck blood."

"I didn't understand much, can you explain?"

"That's the ......" Shi Jiamu told her about the bomb shelter exploration accident that caused a sensation in the whole school in his memory, and from his age, the demolition expert who "didn't work for a few years" was likely to be the protagonist of the punishment that year.

"Interesting associations, but there's no point in tracking down these old things now."

"So—" Shi Jiamu asked cautiously, "has happened like this, is the original plan going on?" ”

"From what I know of Vivien, she's not going to give up. She will be desperate to avenge Zhao Wei. It's just that without Zhao Wei on our side, your situation will be even more dangerous. ”

Shi Jiamu touched the left side of his neck and said with a wry smile: "I only hope that Kitavia has no extra explosives on hand." ”
