Aiden just finished his mission, and he just got back to the dorm. Aiden gets information from Livian that the members of the dorm were asked by Justin to gather in the meeting room. Sometimes he can't guess what Justin's up to.
Taps! Taps! Taps!
Cklek!
Aiden opened the door in front of him, Some members seem to have been there already. There was one thing that caught his attention, a man dressed in a barista was seen sitting on a sofa. His hands and feet were tied, leaving only his mouth that was not sacrificed.
Beside the man were Felix and Devian, just in case the barista man who was fainting tried to escape.
"What's going on?" Aiden stared flatly as he sat on one of the sofas right beside Raizel.
"He was suspected of being the mastermind of the fire" Neil explained, Twirling the dagger in his hand.
"Hey, Ian. Are you sure he's the one? Looking unconvincing," Rea examined the barista's face, while Ian who was asked only snorted.
"Yes" she answered briefly.
"As per the memory he has, can we see him directly?" Raizel.
"Later, we'll wait for Justin and Ezra first" Reply Felix. Rion beside Neil was just a mangosteen.
"It's really exhausting, I just finished my mission. But having to talk about this guy," Devian let out a small breath, he clucked in annoyance.
"Hooam's....Me too, It's exhausting" Livian folded her arms and hid her face between the folds.
"Sleep on!" Cibir Rea, but Livian ignored him.
BRACKET!
After the conversation ended, they were surprised by Justin's sudden arrival. The man opened the door violently to the point of causing a deafening buzzing sound. Ezra just followed behind.
Brak!
"Who among you killed those humans in the fire there! Answer me!" Justin snapped with rage, he kicked the table and threw a picture of the corpse with the bite marks on his neck.
All the members fell silent, Livian until he woke up because of the breakthrough. They all looked at the photos, No one opened their voices at all even though they had already seen the photos.
"Answer! Don't just shut up! If any of you are guilty, you should confess!" Justin's tone still slammed, 'cause no one's opening up. Aiden answered.
"I've never bitten a human outside the dormitory, Only the dorm members have been bitten" explained Aiden, Recalling in the past year. Only he is rarely seen outside the dorm, unless there is something important to him or because of the mission.
"Me too, I did look for prey several times. But I always hid it in a quiet place," Ian commented, He doesn't know anything about the bodies in the settlement.
"My prey is not a low-class human like this villager, so where might I bite him" Rea said, He placed the photo arrogantly. For Rea, the blood of a young noble or blue-blooded girl was more palatable to him than ordinary citizens.
"Hm...If I did, it never seemed to bite this girl. This is also the first time I saw his face, and even if I was looking for prey, I would have done it in a quiet place" Neil said.
"Livian?!" Justin turned to Livian because the members of the vampire race no one claimed to bite the corpse openly.
Livian who felt called raised one eyebrow in wonder. "You think I can drink blood like them? Remember that! I am a werewolf and my favorite food is meat not blood! Even if I bite that woman, she must be in my stomach now and not a corpse,"
Justin started to get dizzy, he pinched his forehead for a moment. Then looking at Devian question markingly, Understand Justin staring at him, Devian snorted a little.
"I didn't kill him, if I killed him, it would have been a cut and not a bite. There's no point in me killing him anyway" replied Devian indifferently.
"What about Felix, Rion, and Raizel?" Justin looked at the three members he mentioned by name, but in unison the three shook their heads.
"I have nothing to do with the incident or the body, because when the fire broke out. I'm working on a mission" Raizel explained.
"Me too, that day I went to the next town to take care of my father's company. And entrusted my cafe to Finni," Felix said.
Ting!
[At the time of the incident, I was guarding the dormitory. And I never set foot in there anyway].
"So none of you were there?" All the members nodded in unison justifying Justin's words.
Ezra sighed, They found no evidence of anything other than the photos of the corpse and the pieces of the chain.
"If you want to know more, how about just ask him?" Neil kicked the barista's leg next to him, trying to resuscitate the barista.
Of course the effort was successful, the barista gasped and woke up from his stupor with a dazed face. The first sight he saw was the look on the faces of different members.
The barista was terrified to find himself in a strange place with his hands and feet tied.
"You guys..."
"Oi, you're the mastermind behind the fire incident in the resident settlement in the southern village aren't you?" Devian to the point.
"Enggak–"
"Don't try to lie! We'll know you're lying!" Rea sharp. Cut the barista's words.
The barista trembled in fear, He lowered his head deeply. "I-Yes, but I was just told to. Please don't punish me, "please be afraid.
"Who told you to?"
"She didn't mention her name, which is for sure she lured me with 125,000$ on condition I had to burn the settlement. Afterwards he did the rest of it," Clearly the barista was full of fear.
Justin and the others drew conclusions, And of course Justian thought of his next plan. If not one of the members who make a mess, Justin suspects that there should be other vampires who roam outside the dorm.
Aye! Logically some supernatural beings such as vampires, werewolves and so on coexist with humans in order for them to survive. Justin was sure there must be wild vampires he couldn't find, because they could have been hiding somewhere completely covered and waiting for humans to let their guard down.
If this suspicion is proven true, then inevitably they must find the wild vampire. For a moment Justin looked at the barista with a full glance.
"While you're telling the truth, I still have no choice but to take you to the police station. You have to take responsibility for what you've done,"
"No! Nay! I did this for my family. For the sake of my wife and children, we're just a small family looking for a bite of rice" the barista began to glaze over.
Wife? Just as Justin was silent, he realized that Chloe was not in the same room as them. The boy disappeared again.
"Where's Chloe?!" Justin's stoning gaze made all the members return silent. A moment some of them looked at each other except for Ian who remained calm on the spot.
"Come on, maybe go somewhere else and forget to go home," Reply Rea indifferently, Ezra behind Justin just nodded in agreement.
"Or maybe go to her family's place?" Guess Felix is hesitant.
"Don't tell me one of you did it again and purposely made it disappear?!" Justin stared angrily, He kicked down the table in front of him.
Brak!
"Who met him last time?" Neil looked at the others in confusion.
"Me," Ian glanced the other way, making all pairs of eyes look at him.
"Find the boy to see you! You won't get a blood ration if you don't find it, Ian! I don't care how I do it" Justin said firmly.
Ian heard it glaring sharply, but he did not say anything or reply to Justin. The man in black with red netra only screeched before stepping away from the room.
