It didn't take long for the disoriented, anxious crowd to have good news and bad news.

The bad news is that Xanna and Suni did have an accident, and the good news is that they actually met Suni who was released.

"Who is your captor?"

"I don't know."

Annan vaguely felt that it was related to him, but Suni's subsequent narration led trouble to accident.

"Xana dragged me to her room, and in the middle of the night the window suddenly opened, and a swarm of bats broke in and hypnotized us."

"Bats? Bloodsucker? ”

Annan thought of the reason for the curfew in the City of Innocence.

Suni said they looked like vampires because the guys were pale and dark, dressed in old dresses, and smelled of blood.

Annan has a strong interest in succubi and vampires, but both magical creatures hate the cold and don't have a chance to meet them in the North - Wood doesn't count, this guy has been expelled from the bloodline since he fed on animal blood.

And it's also a male vampire.

"Why did they let you go?" Alice suddenly spoke.

"Because of who I am. They take us to the vampire lair and lock us up in the dungeon. In the morning, a bewitching woman dressed as a mercenary in leather armor came and saw me. 'Bad luck, why did you bring the groom? She said. ”

Then Suni made a dull voice like a fool, like Martin: "The vampire who captured us said, 'She's with that woman,'" and the glamorous vampire said, 'The groom is poor and troublesome, let her go,' and I was thrown out. ”

"Is she good-looking?"

The crowd who was still digesting the information looked at Annan who was speaking.

"Annan, how can you do this!" One of Xenna's henchmen, a petite girl, said anxiously.

"I mean there won't be too many vampires in the city, even fewer good-looking, plus leather armor...... We should be able to find out. ”

"I'm sorry......," the girl said guiltily.

As soon as Annan wanted to congratulate himself on his intelligence, he found Alice staring at him with a scrutinizing look.

"She knows the 'eternal groom,' which means she is familiar with Seltovis. Then it's not for the sake of blood to eat ...... Senna," Annan added, "and still have to contact Senna's mother again......"

"Let's go in together." The girl said.

In order to prevent being kicked out again, they first captured Xianna by the vampire and told the butler, and then followed the anxious butler into the mansion.

Xenna's mother hurriedly appeared on the stairs, only to be seen for a moment when she changed into a loose white dress at home, and frowned and called the butler to whisper a few words.

The butler stepped down the stairs and said to Annan, "Madame, I hope you can get out of here first." ”

Annan opened his mouth and was about to speak, but the butler said again: "Madame hopes that you will not speak. ”

Annan frowned, he had no impression of Xena's mother and the Waters family, but she rejected herself three times and twice...... Nezumi? Or from the North? Annan stared deeply at Xena's mother—

"And don't look at her."

Annan stood up in silence and whispered as he passed Alice, "Remember to ask her for the key news." ”

"Okay."

Alice, who stared thoughtfully at Mrs. Waters, holding on to the guardrail, nodded.

The butler personally sent Annan out of the mansion, saying that Annan could wait for his companion in the manor, but Annan refused and came to the street.

Annan thought about the reason why Xena's mother was disgusted with him, and thought about the vampire who captured Xena. I thought about the Empire Tournament, and I thought about the current situation in the North. At some point, in the alley at the intersection in the distance, a sturdy silhouette flashed.

Annan, who was found by Yu Guang, stepped over and stood at the entrance of the alley, and he saw the flower cat outside the mansion who could only speak lingua franca sitting in the trash can, talking to its cat friends:

"When I first arrived at that house, my family loved me very much, and they fed me a bunch of delicacies that you couldn't imagine."

Putrefit debris, vomit, and garbage are mixed together to breed germs in shady corners. But the chatty cat and the cat friends who listened carefully didn't care.

"The man always hunts a good prey, the hostess will feed me the tender fish, and the little master likes to dress me."

A squinting expression that looks like you're basking in the warm sun.

"It was a great time......"

Click-

The door in the alley suddenly opened, and a sleepy man came out with a wake up. The cats looked over, and an orange cat that had licked its fur clean leaned over with a cat meow, but the man picked up a stone and threw it at them, and the stone happened to hit the back of the cat, making a miserable cat meow and ran away, and the orange cat and the cat group who wanted to show favor also scurried around the alley and ran away.

This scene made Annan frown, and he returned to the manor without doing anything.

Alice and the others just came out, looking puzzled.

They say that Xena's mother does not want to alarm the academy and the town hall, and entrusts them with finding Xena, and that Xena will not be in danger of life, but that they should find her as soon as possible.

There seems to be a hidden reason for Xanna's disappearance.

"Then I'll leave it to you." Knowing that Xanna was fine, Annan stopped participating.

Xanna's sisters wanted Annan to continue to help, but he refused. There was no reason for Annan to continue to get close to her mother, who hated him.

"She said she was willing to make amends," Alice said. ”

"How much?" Annam stopped as he walked towards the carriage.

"No money will be given directly, but potions or scrolls worth a lot of money."

"Everyone, let's split up. Alice, you go to the academy to investigate, Lutheran King, you inquire about eligible vampires in the tavern and near Xena's disappearance. And ask the housekeeper about it. ”

Xanna's mother loathed her, but Annan felt that the housekeeper had a good attitude towards her.

Annan was going back to the mansion, and Alice got into his carriage and separated from her classmates in front of the manor. As he passed through the alley, Annan suddenly grabbed the reins, told Alice to wait, and went into the alley to summon a low-level earth elemental.

"Get some mud out and stick it on the door." Annan ordered.

After a while, Annan walked out of the alley refreshed and returned to the mansion.

"The locals don't seem to like cats?" Annan, holding the reins, turned back and asked Alice.

"It's just a bad feeling."

"Why?"

"When the City of Innocence was first ruled by sin, the Lord of Sin would have his black cat tell him when he spread death, and over time people associated death with cats."

"Then if a cat could speak human ......," Annan thought to himself, could it be the resurrection of the King of Sin......

"A bored mage cast spells on it, and became proficient in the lingua franca."

Well, Annan always forgot about magic when he thought.

The carriage stopped in front of the mansion, and as soon as Annan stepped out of the carriage, he saw the cat lying motionless in the flower bed on the side of the road.

The carriage behind him slowly drove away, and Annan in the sun seemed to be grabbed by a cold hand and fell into a heavy position.
