Chapter 210 A Qualified Toy (Please rate it!)
Looking back at Asano Minoru, whose breathing was gradually stabilizing but whose expression was still somewhat uneasy, Kuromon Haruya disapprovingly took out a hemostatic bandage and grumbled as he treated the wound:
"That brat probably thinks I'm taking this opportunity to get revenge for that needle I gave him back then. Do you think I'm that kind of person?"
The emergency serum developed by the organization, named "Death in the Afternoon," is a byproduct of the Immortal Wine research project.
Its properties are stable, and within its shelf life, it typically exhibits a clear, emerald green color, making it a rare commodity exclusively supplied to internal organizations. It is administered by directly injecting the syringe into the heart area; it takes effect immediately upon use, effectively maintaining vital signs and blocking viral transmission.
In the year following the Conan anniversary, a limited-time mega sale is underway! Emergency serum, which previously required a year's worth of mission achievements to obtain, can now be redeemed for only six months' worth! No prior training or sterile environment is needed—it's practically a lifesaver for those facing imminent death.
—I believe that all of you undercover agents who joined the organization to do this for free, especially Bourbon who has redeemed several, can testify to this.
"Sigh~ Now that's great! I used one, and Vienna used one too. From now on, Fanze will be the one with the most surplus points in the team..."
Haruya Kuromon imagined what would happen if Gin found out the Operations Department had gained a free laborer; given his habit of "doing missions when he has nothing better to do"...
No, I have to find a way to get Gin to reimburse me!
However, the most urgent task is to deal with the remaining half of the vampire he played with. Let's consult an expert in this area first.
After bandaging his wound, Kuromon Haruya casually used the remaining bloodstains on the ground to draw the communication array that Koizumi Akako had previously explained.
As soon as the magic circle was drawn, it flashed with a crimson light. Hei Men Yao Ye waited for a moment, and a clear figure gradually appeared in the red light:
"Ah~ I'm so sleepy! What's wrong with calling me in the middle of the night?" Koizumi Akako was wearing a pink pajama set, and with each yawn, the chibi sphinx pattern on her pajama set would move.
Holding a red light, Kuromon Haruya squeezed through the hole and came to Torakura, who was half-dead and nailed to a cross, with only his upper body remaining: "Teacher Akako, look, I just captured half a wild vampire! I've never kept such a pet before. Are there any conditions or requirements for raising it?"
"Ah, you caught half a wild one..." Koizumi Akako nodded sleepily, then suddenly snapped to attention, slapping her face against the screen: "What did you say you wanted to raise as a wild thing?!"
“A wild vampire.” Kuromon Haruya raised his hand and poked Tigercang to show it was alive. “It just looks a bit clumsy and can’t communicate… Could it be a defective product?”
"..."
Koizumi Akako looked at the blood splattering everywhere on the other side, almost reaching the side of the video feed, and disgustedly shrank her double chin.
A wild vampire, or half a vampire? Is this even human language?
But considering that the other party's behavior was sometimes quite human-like, Koizumi Akako was too lazy to complain anymore, and simply asked him to turn the lights up a bit:
"Hmm, let me see. It has no mind, only howls and attacks everywhere, and looks like an old man with insufficient blood and energy... This one looks like a product of a failed transformation."
After a careful look, she instantly lost interest. She rang the bell to summon her vampire butler, then lay down on her side on the bed: "I'm sleepy. Deshura, could you explain the knowledge about vampires to him?"
"As you wish." The old butler, whose name sounded impressive, stepped forward. "Good night, Lord Black Gate. I shall now speak with you about vampires. First, the definition of a vampire, the concept of a vampire, and related matters..."
"Stop, stop, stop!"
As soon as the chanting, which sounded like something out of a textbook, started, Kuromon Haruya felt like yawning and immediately stopped: "Excuse me, do you have any books about vampires at your residence? May I borrow them?"
The butler nodded honestly: "Of course, you can just come and get it when you need it."
“Very good.” Kuromon Haruya nodded in satisfaction and went straight to the point: “Is it safe for me to give this defective product to my child as a toy?”
He has lived for centuries, and has seen everything from papal scandals to witch hunts!
...Okay, this is the first time I've ever made such an absurd request.
The butler hesitated for a moment, then carefully stated, "Well, vampires without consciousness pose a significant threat to young children, so I don't recommend that you treat them as toys."
"I mean my son and daughter. Is this a threat to the retinue of demon blood? As long as they don't take lives, it's fine."
"Of course, that's possible. As long as you're careful not to get tainted by the Blood-Draining Embrace, this flawed product won't affect someone as important as you..."
"OK, goodnight and bye-bye."
With his hands clasped together to extinguish the communication, Heimen Yaoye enthusiastically put down the "Tiger Warehouse" and tied him up, then picked up Asano Narishige, stepped over the fallen earthen well, and arrived at the living room on the ground.
The guests in Dracula's villa are now either unconscious or in a coma, leaving him as the only conscious and living person.
Kuromon Haruya took out her phone, gathered her emotions, and pressed the call button.
When the call connects, there's often no response on the other end; this is one way to gauge the situation: "..."
"Gin, a major mishap has occurred during the mission. Requesting backup immediately!"
"Tell me about the situation."
Inside a safe house in Tokyo, a silver-clad figure, wearing a bathrobe, calmly dries the wet ends of his hair with a towel in his left hand.
"When Vienna and I came to investigate Daisuke Torakura..."
Bathed in the moonlight after the blizzard had subsided, Yoruichi Kuromon nestled lazily on the sofa, a cigarette between his fingers, as he recounted his harrowing experience: "...that monster has been easily subdued, but I think it would be better to report this to you."
"I understand. Butbel, stay there and don't move."
"it is good."
When Gin arrived at the sea outside Dracula's villa at top speed in an Osprey helicopter, through the sniper scope, Kuromon Haruya was already half asleep, only wearing a coat and catching up on sleep on the sofa.
After assigning tasks to the 'waiters,' Vodka went to his older brother's side and couldn't help but click his tongue when he saw that Kuromon Haruya was still resting: "Why is this kid still asleep? I'll go wake him up."
"Need not."
Gin shook his head and stopped Vodka, saying, "Butbel knows what he's doing. Go check on Vienna and get the things."
"what?"
Vodka scratched his head in confusion, not understanding why sleeping at work could be done in a proper manner, and simply decided not to follow his older brother directly.
