(For those who didn’t read the end of Chapter 1, this is another reminder: the male leads are searching for the silver-haired woman for their own individual motives, not because of love at first sight TT thank you.)
Lu Yi’s mind went blank in an instant.
When was she filmed?
The video angle looked as though it were shot from the perspective of a small cat looking upward, clearly capturing the moment she turned sideways and bit someone.
If the darkness of the night had not blurred her appearance, Lu Yi would probably already have wanted posters printed with her face on them!
Her face pale, Lu Yi scrolled downward.
【Is she a snake beauty? Or a tiger lady? Only they would have such sharp teeth, right?】
【Heh, did you skip compulsory education? It’s common knowledge that beastmen in humanoid form don’t retain animal traits. Maybe you should be remade from scratch.】
【The moment that male got bitten, his whole body was trembling! Was it really that good?? Big sister, can you bite me too?!】
【The Weimang Star Police Department has taken over the case. Citizens, please rest assured.】
【Those teeth are strange. They look like some kind of newly evolved foreign species… It would be nice to dissect her for experiments. @WeimangStarPoliceHQ】
【What a beautiful female. If she were turned into a specimen collection, it would surely be wonderful. @WeimangStarPoliceHQ After she’s captured, I’ll pay a high price to buy her.】
Lu Yi finished reading expressionlessly, though her body had already started sweating slightly.
From fear…
She looked at her reflection in the glass. Black hair, black eyes, delicate facial features and small hands and feet—she looked like the kind of easy-to-bully person who silently said, “Please give me all the work nobody wants to do.”
Thankfully… her human form and vampire form looked completely unrelated.
One was a meek and harmless little intern girl, while the other was a sexy and gorgeous mature beauty… no one should be able to connect the two, right?
From now on, she needed to stay calm, drink blood regularly, and stay safe… she absolutely could not lose control and transform into a vampire again.
Thinking this, Lu Yi drank more than half a cup of coffee.
The discussions on the star network kept refreshing with increasingly bizarre theories, further convincing Lu Yi that this world had absolutely no concept of vampires.
Some people even speculated that she was some kind of serial killer and wanted the greatest detective in the interstellar world, Hermoke, to investigate her!
Seeing the discussions becoming more and more ridiculous, Lu Yi directly closed the star network.
During the next three days, aside from countless rumors, none of the major official organizations released any statements. They could not identify the silver-haired female through the recognition system, nor could they find any related evidence at the scene.
The investigation seemed to have reached a deadlock. Even Yalan made another rare appearance, discussing the case with his secretary in obvious displeasure.
For a time, the death of the male beastman no longer seemed important. What mattered more was finding the silver-haired female.
…This damned appearance-obsessed interstellar beast world.
Lu Yi closed the star network again, only to feel darkness cloud her vision when she looked up.
The temporary additional workload displayed on the transparent screen was enough to keep her working overtime until ten at night.
No matter how much anger she held inside, she had not become a regular employee yet…
Meanwhile, in the gang district of Weimang Star.
Inside the basement of the “Night Eye” leader’s villa, a handsome and wicked-looking man leaned lazily against the sofa. His wine-red shirt hung open at the collar, revealing a sharply defined and sensual chest.
The snake-shaped brooch on his shirt was tilted to one side, reflecting a cold silver light.
You Min drained the wine in his hand and stared at the short ten-second video playing on the screen before him.
“Rewind it.”
The footage returned to the moment the woman raised her eyes.
“Rewind.”
“Again.”
He watched the scene several times, curiosity surging in his cool eyes like ocean waves.
As red wine filled the glass again, his veined forearm lifted the goblet before him as though offering a toast.
“The color of blood…”
He had never felt like this before. It was as though those blood-red eyes had hooked his heart. The moment he saw them, his neck began to burn.
His body grew hotter and hotter, and his normally stable, restrained heat period suddenly descended at this moment.
Even after injecting a calming agent into his arm, those blood-red eyes still lingered in his mind.
Even he himself sneered at the absurdity of it. To think he could lose control because of a pair of blood-red eyes…
He had to capture this person… this unpredictable variable.
At the outer edge of the Koroya Galaxy.
The small shuttlecraft was filled with screens, all displaying investigation commissions from various galaxies.
And every commission targeted the same person—
The silver-haired female who had stunned the entire interstellar beast world,
A beautiful killer who used only her teeth to deal with enemies!
“A two-billion reward?”
Hermoke wore loose casual pajamas, his golden hair hidden beneath a hood, while his catlike moon-colored eyes gleamed greedily.
Lazily reclining on the sofa, he selected the most valuable commission among them all.
“Victor Watson.”
Interstellar richest man Victor—what an idiot with too much money to spend.
Hermoke mocked inwardly, but still accepted the commission with a grin.
He was not interested in the silver-haired female.
He liked money.
After activating an encrypted communication line, Hermoke heard a deep and gentle male voice.
“Hello, I assume this is Mr. Hermoke? I’m honored that you’re willing to accept this commission.”
Hermoke’s fingertips moved lightly as he closed all the other commissions.
“I watched the video. As for the files…”
As though returning home, Hermoke casually hacked into Weimang Star’s police system and calmly reviewed the reports concerning the silver-haired female.
“I’ve reviewed the files as well.”
Suddenly, Hermoke frowned slightly.
No such person existed in the system?
Without saying a word, he curled his lips into a smile and said to Victor on the other end of the line,
“This commission needs more money.”
“So it really is a difficult commission.”
Victor did not get angry at all. Such was the confidence of the richest man in the universe.
“Four billion.”
“Deal.”
Paranormal Association.
“Dr. Fino sent over a reference paper overnight. After comparing the victim’s wounds with beast race teeth, his conclusion is basically that the silver-haired beau… silver-haired female is a dangerous organism.”
Yalan quickly scanned the document and raised a brow.
“I think Fino is deliberately giving me trouble. Dangerous organism? What, is she some alien species from another galaxy? Killing with beauty?”
“Dr. Fino didn’t exactly say that was impossible…”
Under the stare of those cold gray eyes, the secretary lost confidence the more he spoke.
“What did the police department say?”
“They sent a joint investigation request.”
A joint investigation request meant the police department and the scientific center both took this case very seriously. Now they were only waiting for the Paranormal Association to agree to join.
Yalan let out a cold snort.
“Kiel searched through the entire interstellar system and still couldn’t find matching information on the female… Did you investigate the crime scene area?”
“We did, but the victim didn’t live there. According to the investigation, the victim also appears to have been a gang member.”
The moment he heard the word “gang,” Yalan’s tapping fingers stopped.
This case seemed much more complicated than it first appeared…
“Send me all the resident information from the crime scene area.”
As Yalan looked through the photos appearing before him one by one, he suddenly noticed a familiar figure among them.
Black hair, black eyes, proper features, but meek and submissive, lacking any presence.
A little familiar?
He glanced at the name beneath the photo again.
Lu Yi.
After silently repeating the name three times, he remembered.
The affairs department intern, Lu Yi.
His eyes darkened, making it impossible to read his expression.
“Go bring me the intern from the affairs department.”
