What is the experience of becoming a vampire

Chapter 22 The Taste of Blood

The quiet street that I thought had fallen into a "sleep" now, but when I walked over, I found that there were all kinds of small conversations, TV sounds, and mobile phones in the buildings near the border. Many people were still not asleep.

The street where I thought was empty, but now I walked up to it, only to find a lot of bugs and small animals rustling moving in every corner, dark place, and ditch on both sides.

A few days ago, he needed to concentrate on listening to the sounds that could only be heard, but now it’s hard not to hear them. These sounds and smells have been integrated into his sensory "database" and become the basis for him to judge the surrounding environment. And experience.

Compared with the sense of hearing, the sense of strangeness and freshness brought by the sense of smell is actually much stronger. There are many flavors, which he smelled for the first time.

He wants to determine the source of these flavors, label them, and "enter" them into his "database."

Every adult has his own "database" of smell and hearing, which is the so-called experience.It's like smelling a smell of rotten eggs in the crowd, knowing that someone has farted, and hearing the sound of footsteps upstairs, you can also tell whether you are wearing high heels, slippers or barefoot.

As for Xiang Kun, after the functions of the various sensory organs have been greatly improved, he needs to "update" his "database". After that, his sensory organs can be improved to be truly effective.

...

Xiang Kun suddenly stopped and looked at the corner of the street to the east.

It is 11:47 in the evening. At this time, some streets are still very lively, while others are almost invisible.

The area he is currently out of is a relatively deserted area. There are not many merchants and not many residents. In addition, many old houses to be demolished are empty, so after 10 o'clock in the evening, it is very There are few pedestrians, and you can only occasionally see electric cars passing by.

Xiang Kun originally intended to go there. The more quiet and dark the place is, the more sensitive his senses will be. Eliminating all kinds of urban-specific, noisy and chaotic sounds or odor interference, the more convenient it is for him to conduct targeted training.

But now he hesitated, because he smelled a scent-it was blood, and it was most likely human blood.

It was also the incident when a young couple was attacked downstairs a few days ago. In addition, he has a much stronger sense of smell during this period, so that he can distinguish between human blood and rabbit blood and chicken blood.

But now, after a long distance, Xiang Kun didn't dare to be 100% sure that the bloody smell locked in the various smells in the air was human blood.

If it were human blood, what accident might have happened there?

Now Xiang Kun doesn't want to get into any more troubles. The previous time was because it happened downstairs in his house, right under his nose, and the victim was still someone he knew, so he couldn't remain indifferent.

but now……

If you have trouble in that direction, you just need to change the direction. You don’t know what is going on there. Isn’t it a dead end?

Besides, there may not be people who were hurt and bleeding. Maybe they smelled the wrong thing. Isn't it human blood?Or was it just that someone was playing and he accidentally fell and shed some blood?

Thinking this way, Xiang Kun took two steps in the opposite direction, but after two seconds, he sighed and hurried in the direction of the suspected blood.

He knew that with his personality, if he hadn't checked it out there today, what was going on there, this suspicion would have been entangled in his mind for a few months or years.It's not because he feels guilty that he might miss the opportunity to save people, but more because of curiosity...

...

The place where the smell of blood was emitted was less than 30 meters away from Xiang Kun. He rushed across the street corner and saw the figure lying in a pile of building materials garbage on the side of the street.

Are they really human?

Before Xiang Kun was satisfied with the accuracy of his judgment on the smell of human blood, he took out his mobile phone and dialed 110 while paying attention to the surrounding situation and slowly approached the man who fell on the ground.

However, judging by Xiang Kun's sensory abilities, the murderer who stabbed people is no longer nearby.

Before long, the police arrived, followed by an ambulance, and Xiang Kun, as the first discoverer and informant at the crime scene, was naturally kept by the police for questioning.

The police who had just arrived at the scene simply confirmed his identity, and then asked him to wait for a while to see how he discovered the scene and called the police.

As a result, after a while, a detective came and looked to Kun, but he was an acquaintance—it was the police officer named Chen who had dealt with the attack on the young couple downstairs and took notes for him.

Officer Chen clearly recognized Xiang Kun, and he couldn't ignore it. After all, his characteristics were too clear.

"Do you know the victim? How did you let the murderer run away?" Based on Police Officer Chen's judgment on Xiang Kun's skill, it stands to reason that even if the opponent has a weapon in his hand, Xiang Kun should be able to fight.

Xiang Kun hurriedly said: "I didn't know the injured person, but just passed by. Hearing a little movement, I took a look..."

Officer Chen asked: "It's so late, where are you going?"

Xiang Kun said, "Oh, I'm going to have some barbecue on Fuxiang Street."

"You still live in Huawen Street? You walked all the way? Is that a bit far?" Officer Chen asked strangely.

"Anyway, there is nothing to do at night, so I'm not in a hurry, just walk and exercise." Xiang Kun said.

Officer Chen nodded and asked again. He heard the movement and found the whole process of the injured.But this time, it was much more detailed than the police asked before.

In fact, Xiang Kun didn't hear anything. When he smelled the blood, the murderer should have already left. Otherwise, with his hearing, it would be impossible to hear nothing.

But if you don't say that, it is really impossible to explain why he appeared here. It is really a bit remote here. He has no reason to come here. Could it be that he is going to come here to clarify?

This time, Officer Chen did not bring Xiang Kun back to the bureau to make a transcript. After questioning, he left a phone call to him, and then confessed: "In the future, you may be asked to assist in the investigation and will contact you by phone. If you think of anything, you can call me and tell me."

Xiang Kun responded and prepared to leave.

When answering the question of Officer Chen, he observed that the police next to him went to check at the ATM machine on the opposite street. With his strong hearing, he also heard the conversation between the police and knew that before the victim was attacked, As soon as I went to the ATM to withdraw money, the murderer may have followed all the way there.

Xiang Kun was originally going to go back along the previous route, but after walking a few steps, he changed his mind. He suddenly had an idea to try.
