Chapter 83: Pick up the fire and put it in someone’s hand
The next day, just as night fell, Samson and Lucasta were at Harvey’s apartment.
When looking through the wooden eyes, the silver-haired vampire was extremely surprised to see the familiar faces of the two guests.
When Lucasta left, she stole Harvey’s key card so the two of them could easily move into the building.
The door was quickly opened and the two of them hurried in. Harvey’s eyes widened when he saw Lucasta’s small hand in Samson’s.
He’s a smart guy, so seeing that was enough for him to understand their current relationship.
– Explain, I’ll give you five minutes to explain. Harvey sat down on the sofa and spoke.
– Now Lucasta is my wife. We came to the city to help the police, specifically to help Michael investigate the disappearance case that we suspected was related to William. After finishing work, the two of us will return to the forest and Lucasta will use her blood to break the curse for me.
Harvey pondered for a long time. Breaking the curse was a good thing, but what he worried about was whether they would preserve their lives until then.
Harvey told himself not to get too involved in human affairs, but deep down in the heart of a man who always stands for righteousness, he still wants to eliminate evil.
Furthermore, Samson decided to come here and would not return to the forest until his goal was achieved.
Harvey is Samson’s friend and he always wants the best for his friends, so he has no choice but to support them.
– Alright. If you need any help, just let me know.
After saying that, Harvey immediately turned on the TV and coincidentally, the news broadcast was the scene of the crime that had just happened under the bridge.
Samson noticed Harvey’s hand suddenly clench. Although the guy’s face was still calm, they had known each other for more than a few lifetimes, how could Samson not notice the unrest in his friend’s heart?
– What’s up? Did they just say there were two fang-like wounds on the man’s neck? Hey Harvey, you’re the only vampire left in this city. Samson smiled happily and leaned back on the sofa, squinting and looking at the man next to him.
– Yes, it was me. Harvey replied indifferently.
– What?
Without an appointment, both Samson and Lucasta spoke up at the same time.
Did Harvey kill someone? Has he run out of blood to drink? Why is he acting so rude?
Lucasta was afraid and leaned against Samson. Her brain started thinking wildly.
Are there times when vampires will not be able to control their beastly nature? If so, it’s like her life is in danger. This place has two vampires, no joke.
– I created a fake crime scene. Harvey’s voice lowered.
After a sigh, he said that the victim was male, named Cole, and Bonita’s husband. Cole’s death was something that both she and he did not want.
A few days ago, Cole silently followed Bonita when she went to the wasteland west of the city to get blood from the doctor of the hematology and blood transfusion institute.
The previous times, they still did business in the city, but that guy asked to change the location because he was afraid of being discovered by the police.
When the doctor left, Cole appeared with a camera in his hand and demanded that Bonita agree to marry him again, otherwise, he would denounce her for illegal blood trading.
Of course, Bonita was scared, not because she was afraid that she would be accused of that crime, but because she was afraid that if the police actively fought and expanded the investigation, Harvey’s identity would be exposed.
Furthermore, if that doctor was captured, she wouldn’t be able to find a blood supply for the three vampires.
During the struggle, Cole fell and hit his head on a rock, which was the cause of his death.
When Harvey received Bonita’s call, he went there and bit the corpse’s neck to distract the police investigation.
After that, Harvey hid Cole in the bushes and then, when it was dark, he returned, took Cole under the bridge, and burned Cole’s car, erasing all traces.
– That doctor said there was information leaked from the police department. He said a few police officers were secretly investigating the negative activities in the hematology and blood transfusion institute, and they were also secretly observing suspicious transactions taking place in the city.
Harvey had just finished speaking when Bonita called, announcing that she had just returned from the police station after giving her testimony.
He realized she was losing her temper because her voice was shaking.
– You didn’t reveal any suspicious points, did you? He asked gently.
– Yes, I just said I don’t know and haven’t contacted him for a long time. Perhaps they also found out that I had not contacted Cole recently, so after letting me sign the report, they let me go.
– It will be fine. Listen, Cole was killed by a vampire, it has nothing to do with you, okay?
– Yes.
Lucasta almost held her breath from the moment Harvey picked up the phone until he put the phone down.
Vampire fang marks on a corpse? Didn’t the police discover a similar case before and suspect Samson?
Samson said those two victims were the people William hired to get her into a traffic accident but failed.
– They’ll check the street cameras. Samson spoke up.
– Don’t worry! I deleted the location from her phone’s activity history and I also hacked to delete the videos that traffic cameras captured on the route to the vacant lot at that time. Harvey leisurely took a sip of water and said.
– You are worthy of being a two thousand-year-old vampire. If you intentionally get involved in any case, the police cannot investigate it.
– But as long as they have not concluded, Bonita will still live in fear.
Lucasta was busy thinking so she only heard Harvey’s last sentence.
Immediately, a thought popped into her head and she quickly came up with an opinion, which was to blame this crime on William. Of course, the police investigation report will still be that it was caused by a vampire.
If Michael believes that William is the person behind that case, he will soon conclude and no longer redirect the investigation to those who have a relationship with Cole.
That way, Bonita’s spirit will stabilize.
– Are you cheating on each other while cooperating? Harvey squinted and looked at Lucasta.This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
– It is important to capture the big criminal and help both sides reach an initial cooperation agreement. Fooling him once or twice won’t have any effect.
The two vampires nodded and looked at each other after hearing what she said.
Harvey realized that Lucasta had matured a lot even though he hadn’t seen her for a short time.
He was happy, but he was still a little sad. After all, she was still not twenty years old but had to face unimaginable things like this.
– You… already know how to cheat. True to the meaning of that word. Harvey laughed like he cried, praising her like criticizing her.
Leaving the luxurious apartment, the two of them continued to Aurora’s house.
Although Aurora was not surprised to see them together, she wondered why they even returned to this dangerous city.
And when she heard their wishes, she, like Harvey, could not advise them to give up even though she felt very insecure.
– I don’t want to hide anything from you, Aurora, because we are no different from family. However…
– Please let me participate in this mission with you. You just said we are family, so let’s decide like that.
As soon as Aurora finished speaking, the message notification tone rang. She immediately took out her phone and what caught her eye was a photo of Bonita standing with Henry.
Accompanying the photo is a message from Harvey. He asked her to help him check to see what position the man in the photo held at the hematology and blood transfusion institute, and whether he had any relationship with the director or deputy director there.
– So it turns out that Miss Bonita bought the blood from Dr. Henry? He works at the Institute of Medical Sciences, not at the Institute of Hematology and blood transfusion. Harvey is mistaken.
After speaking, Aurora immediately called Harvey back and told him that he had mistaken the work unit of the man in the photo.
At the same time, she also told Harvey that that person was Henry, a close employee of William, whom she had mentioned before when he gave her a dried blood sample from the criminal science institute and asked her to research it.
– Damn, maybe William has discovered something. That doctor just called Bonita and said he wouldn’t sell her blood anymore. The reason was because the police were targeting the hematology and blood transfusion institute and he could not steal more. Harvey hissed.
– Harvey, do you think the blood you drank came from a source other than the hematology and blood transfusion institute? Aurora asked while looking up at Samson.
– You mean…
– Yes, you drank the blood of people we suspected were kidnapped by William.
– What?
Aurora was startled and accidentally pressed the off button because Harvey’s voice was too loud.
Samson’s face also changed color when he thought that he had used the blood of the unfortunate victims, not the blood obtained from humanitarian blood donation activities and legally purchased from the hematology and blood transfusion institute.
Samson guessed that William cut off the blood supply because he wanted the vampires to be forced to kill humans, successfully gathering enough evidence to blame all the crimes for decades on him and Harvey.
Once he and Harvey became too bloodthirsty, they couldn’t control themselves.
– Do we have a lot of blood left? He tried to stay calm and asked Aurora.
– Enough for all three of you to use for the next three months. She answered.
– Perhaps we have to ask Michael to contact the hematology institute to buy blood.
After saying goodbye to Aurora, Samson and Lucasta went to Michael’s house.
Michael didn’t call Samson and Lucasta even though he discovered traces of vampires on the corpse, so Samson didn’t know what Michael was thinking.
– Do we need to call him? Lucasta asked.
– No, we will wait.
She put away her phone, took the money to pay the driver, and then walked with him to the high gate.
And when the car was out of sight, he brought her inside with just one jump.
Samson and Lucasta both did not have a driver’s license, so they decided to travel by taking a taxi. Except in emergencies, he would use his abilities to minimize the risk of being detected.
