Ah ha ha ha! I don't know if I'm about to die, but I'm actually incredibly exhilarated by this strange feeling. Perhaps I'm dying, have I gone mad!
But actually, that's not how it was. At that moment, while the man was biting me, I had already inserted a syringe into his neck. The instant he reacted, his emotions slowly stabilized, and he fiercely released his teeth, spitting several mouthfuls of blood onto the ground!
What I had injected him with was an external 3% dihydroxyacetone and 0.13% calendula extract cream. Once porphyria patients are injected with this drug, they will wake up and feel that blood is particularly disgusting.
Seeing their master spitting out blood, the surrounding porphyria patients were all astonished. They exchanged glances, and a few of them even cursed, "New King, what are you doing? Didn't you say you loved Detective He's blood? Why are you spitting it all out now!"
"Yeah, look at him wasting such a delicacy!"
"New King, you're going too far, wasting such noble food in front of us blood races, sob, sob, it seems we've misjudged you!"
"Shut up!!"
At this moment, the new king roared. He finally finished spitting out the blood in his mouth, wiped his lips, and stared at me with his dark eyes: "Detective He, what did you inject me with just now?"
"External 3% dihydroxyacetone and 0.13% calendula extract cream!! I'm telling you, only these drugs are the way to save you, not bloodsucking. Do you understand? If you surrender now, we can find a cure for porphyria for you. Isn't your main goal to cure the disease?"
Perhaps I had spoken the inner thoughts of these people, and many porphyria patients began to waver, hesitating. At this moment, Zhang Keying, while a few people weren't paying attention, struggled on the ground and, with astonishing speed, came to my side, helping me sit on the vampire throne, the same throne the man had just occupied.
"Ah! Look, Detective He is sitting on the throne!"
"That's right! It seems we've been wrong all along. Look, Yue Mingde is feeling much better now. This disease can probably really be treated with that acetone!"
As soon as this person finished speaking, the porphyria patients suddenly knelt on the ground in unison: "Welcome, the new king, to succeed to the throne, and for our blood race, to find a cure for porphyria! Long live the new king! Long live the progenitor of vampires! Long live Duke Herbert!!"
Witnessing this reaction, I was stunned for a moment, but then inspiration struck, and I played along with their wishes: "Good! Everyone rise. Now I will take you to the hospital!"
"Hospital? What is that place?" Everyone looked at each other. Zhang Keying and I exchanged glances. These people had probably been in hiding for too long and were severely out of touch with the outside world, not even knowing what a hospital was.
Zhang Keying realized something at this moment and immediately explained for me: "It's a barber!!"
In ancient times, Western doctors were called barbers because, in that era, Westerners believed bloodletting was an excellent cure. However, few people called themselves barbers, as bloodletting was dangerous. At that time, Western law stipulated that killing someone required forfeiting one's own life, so there were very few Western doctors then.
There is also a saying that in Western countries, the original meaning of "doctor" is "arrow-puller," and as the name suggests, these angels in white originally served in war.
"Oh, oh, oh! Then let's go find a barber!"
The porphyria patients were very excited. Just as their guard was down, I tapped the bracelet on my hand, and Li Fan's treatment team, who had been nearby, cautiously spoke into the hall: "We are barbers, and our people have arrived!"
Hearing the word "barbers," the porphyria patients didn't hesitate and went to open the door. Just as the door was about to open, many medical staff members began to bend down and enter. This time, there was no conflict. These porphyria patients were very cooperative, and each one was taken away by the doctors.
I quickly stood up and went towards Yue Mingde. However, this guy saw through our plan and, in the first instance, took out a strange blue bottle and poured it into his mouth!
At that time, I had no idea what it was. After all the porphyria patients were sent away, that guy suddenly held me hostage. Li Fan had already surrounded the place with many SWAT officers, and Zhang Keying had also drawn her gun!
"He Sheng!" she couldn't help but call me. Yue Mingde extended his sharp, blood-red claws and gripped my neck: "Don't come any closer! If you take another step, I'll kill him!"
"Yue Mingde, your servants have been subdued by us. Now I am the new king, and you should bow at my feet!" I commanded with the authority of an emperor!
"Bastard, it's all your fault, you rebel! How dare you seize the throne, but I won't give up, I will make everyone believe in me again!"
"Your era is over. Now I can help those porphyria patients, do you know that, Yue Mingde!!"
"You..."
Yue Mingde was a little angry, but he didn't seem to care. He raised a hand and took out something that looked like a timer. Then, he smashed it onto the ground, and a lot of smoke immediately filled the air, completely obscuring everyone's vision!
Yue Mingde took me to the rooftop of a skyscraper. It was not far from the hotel. It was pouring rain outside, but the eerie moonlight that night was not covered by the thick clouds. It seemed to have penetrated all things in the world, casting its cold light on us.
What caused the current situation was the smoke bomb Yue Mingde had thrown 25 minutes earlier. He had forced me to the edge of the rooftop and pressed my neck against the edge. My eyes met the ground 28 stories below, and waves of extreme cold shot through my nerves. If Yue Mingde pushed any harder, I would plummet from this height!
It's worth mentioning that at this height, the scenery below had already blurred into small black dots. The consequences of a person falling would be unimaginable.
"Aren't you scared! New King! Ha ha ha ha!!! I'm going to throw you off the building now, it's as easy as pie. Weren't you very arrogant just now?"
"Yue Mingde, even if you kill me, you won't escape. My colleagues will find this place soon. Do you think you can escape?"
"Escape?!! Ha ha ha ha!! I never thought of escaping. I will jump down with you, and we will go on our way together!!"
