Chapter 4: The Temptation of Blood and My Loss of Control 2
In the medical room after a long time.
Lagude's weak voice slowly sounded.
"So, you've always been annoyed with me and dislike me?"
"So, what you've been saying about not liking me is actually true?"
"So, what you've been saying is impossible is actually impossible?"
Lagude looked at me, his originally bright eyes seemed to have been robbed of all their brilliance in an instant, and he looked so dazed and lifeless.
He looked at me, but I didn't know where his focus was. He just looked at me blankly, with his mouth slightly open, and spoke softly.
My heart ached when I saw him looking so lost and helpless. I wanted to comfort him, but my mind told me that if I was soft-hearted at this moment, all my previous efforts would be wasted.
I gritted my teeth and continued coldly, "Yes, that's right. I find you annoying and I don't like you at all. There's no way we can be together. I told you this when we first met, and I'm telling you this now. So please don't always act like you live in your own world and don't care what others think. I'm really, really not happy at all about your confession, because I will never like you."
"In my heart, the person I like is much better than you—"
"That's enough!" I was interrupted by Jean Dracula who was standing silently beside me. He looked at me with a chilling coldness in his eyes.
"Do you feel happy to hurt someone who likes you?" Jean Dracula stared at me and sneered, "Or is it that because of the strange changes in your body, your psychology has become twisted, and you enjoy torturing others?"
"You—" I gasped and looked at Jean Dracula blankly.
"How can you say that!" Lagoud's reaction was even bigger than mine. He glared at Jean Dracula angrily, as if he was mocking him instead of venting his anger on him. "Qiqi is not the kind of person you say she is. She would never treat me like that."
Lagude's words were so decisive that my heart felt a little empty.
"You are a fool. She has clearly told you that she hates you, is fed up with you, and told you not to come to her again, but you still speak up for her!" Jean Dracula looked very angry. He pointed at me and yelled at Lagoude, "You call this kind of person? Humph, I don't think there is anyone in our blood clan who is more cruel than her."
"At least we won't be so aggressive towards people who really like us." Jean Dracula said, "She really thinks she is such a popular person, with so many people like her! And there are people who like her! Humph, she is probably lying. Even if she is not lying, her lover may not like her."
"After all, who would like such an annoying person! Oh, by the way, this girl should not be considered a person now, what should I call her?"
This girl should not be considered a human being now... Jean Dracula's words were like a bomb, exploding in my mind so unexpectedly.
I felt dizzy and my mind was filled with his words.
Although I know this clearly in my heart, the feeling is completely different when I hear others say it, especially when they say it with anger.
I felt like I was slapped hard in the face, forcing me to face the cruel fact that I was most reluctant to face.
"Do I want to be like this? Why do you say that to me?" I bit my lips so hard that I could smell a faint smell of blood. Only then did I force the tears that were about to flow back into my eyes.
"Although you may find it unpleasant to hear, what I said is the truth, just like what you said to your friend just now." Jean Dracula said coldly.
I gritted my teeth: Are they the same? Obviously they are different. Although my words to Lagoude were a little hurtful, they were all for him. How can they be the same? I turned my head and looked at Lagoude. Seeing the disappointment in his eyes, my heart shrank again. Maybe Jean Dracula was right. No matter what, I hurt him!
"Well, you have nothing to say, right? I hate girls like you the most. You look so gentle and soft, but you are actually very cruel. However, you are quite suitable to be a half-blood. After all, how can a former human being who has become a vampire and attacks his own companions without being a little cruel!"
After all - how could a former human being, transformed into a vampire, attack his own companions without being a little ruthless... Jean Dracula's words were like a spell, circling in my mind. I felt as if my heart was suddenly grabbed by someone. It wanted to beat, but I was powerless to break free of the powerful bondage.
I squatted down with difficulty breathing, and heard Akashi and the others yelling at Jean Dracula. Then, I couldn't hear any other words. The only words echoing in my mind were those of Jean Dracula.
I'm half-blood!
I will attack my own companions!
One day, I will even suck the blood of my parents, the blood of citrus fruits, and the blood of the teachers and classmates around me!
I suddenly remembered the scene in my nightmare, the scene where I stabbed my long canine teeth into Jiusha's neck without hesitation. That bloody scene will one day become my whole life!
No, no, no… I shook my head frantically, trying to get rid of the curse circling in my mind and the scene in front of me: “I’m not, I’m not, I’m not like that.”
"Qiqi!" Mr. Akashi came over to look at me nervously. I looked up at him pleadingly, but I saw my reflection in his pupils, my bloodshot eyes.
"Old..." I opened my mouth to speak, but at that moment, I found a pair of long canine teeth growing out of my mouth, which were horrifyingly exposed because of speaking.
"Ah——" I screamed with a splitting headache.
"Qiqi, Qiqi, it's okay, calm down first. As long as you calm down, you will be fine." Teacher Akashi patted my shoulder nervously, trying to calm me down. "Qiqi, have you forgotten? The teacher promised you that he would help you find a way to solve the problem. You have to believe in the teacher, we must find a way to stop the changes in your body."
"Yes, is that so?" Mr. Akashi's words seemed to have magic. I watched him waving his hands in front of my eyes and speaking to me in a slow and warm tone. My originally excited emotions calmed down little by little.
"Of course, as long as we work hard, nothing is unsolvable. What's more, we have so many people with super powers in our Human Research Institute," said Teacher Akashi.
"But, but Jean--" I timidly glanced at Jean Dracula on the side, "He--"
"It's okay, he is just like that. Although his words can be a little harsh, he is not a bad person." Kawakami Feng Baozhu came over to comfort me.
"Thank you, thank you." I felt my heartbeat slowly start beating again. The people around me also felt my body gradually relax, and just when they were about to breathe a sigh of relief, they heard a scream at the door.
"Ah, monster, monster, help, help!" I don't know when the door of the medical room was opened. The medical teacher in a white coat stood at the door stupidly. After looking at me for a long time, he screamed in shock.
"Monster, there is a monster! Help! ---" the medical teacher shouted and turned and ran out.
For ten seconds, time was almost still, except for the medical teacher's scream, which gradually became farther and farther away from her ears.
"Just now, did a person appear?" Kawakami Feng Baozhu blinked at me and spoke.
"It seems so." Jean Dracula nodded seriously with a cold face.
"And then he saw Kiki?" Kawakami Feng Baozhu continued.
"It seems so." Jean Dracula continued to nod.
After that, there was silence for about ten seconds again.
"Why don't you two catch up with me?" Teacher Akashi shook his handsome eyebrows and said to the two guys who were not aware of themselves.
"I hate chasing people the most. It's obvious that I'm the only one being chased." Kawakami Feng Baozhu muttered dissatisfiedly.
Uh—I lowered my head silently.
"If we let that guy run around the entire school shouting all the way, just think about how many people you two will have to spray Forget-Me-Not Water on tomorrow? That's a huge workload!" Teacher Akashi said leisurely.
"Why us?" they both shouted at the same time.
"Could it be me?" Teacher Akashi raised his eyebrows.
There was silence again for ten seconds.
Kawakami Fuuhotake and Jean Dracula looked at each other.
"Wait, the guy in front, stop right there." The two of them shouted at the same time and rushed out of the medical room.
Lagude, Akashi-sensei and I followed.
"Damn it, isn't that guy a medical teacher? Why does he run as vigorously as a physical education teacher?" Kawakami Feng Baozhu ran a few steps and then stopped, panting and complaining.
"Hurry up." Jean Dracula grabbed him and pulled him to continue chasing.
"Hey, hey, hey - aren't you very fast? Why don't you chase him alone?" Kawakami Feng Baozhu looked at Jean Dracula with bright eyes, "Please, brother, the next step is up to -"
"No, that man was shouting all the way, it was too noisy, I don't want to get too close to him." Jean Dracula said calmly.
I clearly saw that Mr. Akashi on the side trembled because of the conversation between the two and was obviously angry.
"It seems like you prefer cleaning up messes." He ran over to the two of them and said with a wry smile.
Uh—the two looked at each other.
Kawakami Feng Baozhu suddenly whispered a spell, then pointed at the ground, and then something magical happened: I saw the road surface began to freeze rapidly from the ground where his finger pointed, and from this point on, the road surface quickly thawed, and soon, the road surface where the medical teacher was also frozen. The medical teacher, who was running away quickly, fell to the ground with a "bang".
"Help!" The poor medical teacher struggled to get up from the ice, but before he could take a step and run again, he fell down again with a "bang". What followed was a sad and inspiring scene of getting up, falling down again, and getting up and falling down again.
"Okay, now I'll see if I can catch up with you." Kawakami Feng Baozhu clapped his hands, turned around and smiled triumphantly at us.
I saw Mr. Akashi pulling up the corners of his mouth and smiling very reluctantly.
“Help—”
A dramatic scene suddenly happened. The medical teacher stepped on the ice, stumbling and barely moving forward about one meter. Unexpectedly, he encountered a staircase - now he didn't have to get up, he could just roll all the way down.
"Ah——" A series of screams from medical teachers rang out in the empty campus.
Everyone could only open their eyes wide and watch the medical teacher rolling down the slippery stairs rapidly, getting farther and farther away from us.
I was very suspicious: Was the medical teacher's cry caused by panic or surprise?
"Jean..." Kawakami Feng Baozhu looked at Jean Dracula weakly, "This situation is completely beyond my expectations."
Jean Dracula's eyebrows twitched: "No matter how fast I am, I can't walk on the ice."
Jean Dracula strikes with a matter-of-fact tone.
"You two idiots!" Teacher Akashi yelled at the two of them, unable to bear it any longer . Then he stretched out his arms and silently recited a few words that I couldn't understand.
Suddenly, several dogs barked in the distance. Then, one, two, three... a dozen stray dogs suddenly appeared in front, behind, and around the medical teacher. As Akashi slowly retracted his arm, the dozen stray dogs pounced on the medical teacher.
“Woof woof woof…”
“Help—”
For a moment, the barking of dogs and the shouting of people mixed together, it was too horrible to listen to.
I closed my eyes in sympathy, not wanting to look at this messy scene.
After all the sounds returned to silence, I slowly opened my eyes and saw in the distance: the medical teacher was lying on the ground panting. On his back, a dozen stray dogs were standing or lying proudly. It was a very harmonious picture.
I curled my lips and could only express my sympathy to the medical teachers silently in my heart.
"Sure enough, Mr. Akashi is the best." Seeing that the situation was under control, Kawakami Fuuhozhu smiled ingratiatingly at Mr. Akashi.
Teacher Akashi snorted at him, took out the bottle of forgetfulness water, and was about to spray it on the medical teacher, but just as he took a step forward, there was a "bang"... and he fell to the ground with his head tilted up to the sky in a very heroic posture.
"Kawakami Fuuhotake!" Akashi teacher roared through gritted teeth.
"Oh, yeah, sorry, I forgot to remove the spell."
