Chapter 525 The judgment of the repeater
Chapter 525 The judgment of the repeater
Facing Henry's proposal, the repeater immediately thought of the curse that "vampires cannot enter other people's properties without permission."
So he decisively rejected the seemingly good proposal.
It's a pity that Henry, who was rejected, naturally refused to let him go home from the dangerous city at night, and he would stay overnight even if he said anything.
Forced to have no choice but to accept the other party's kindness, the latter stayed in the coffee shop until dawn.
There are more superheroes on duty during the day, and the city is relatively safer.
Unfortunately, there was neither hot water nor glasses in the cafe, so the two of them could only sit and wait for dawn.
Having said that, the repeater who stayed overnight in the cafe did not dare to just sleep, so he had to stay up all night with a creature of the night.
During this period, the supporter in the earphone reminded him that there was still no direct evidence proving that the other party was a vampire, and the repeater had no choice but to chat intermittently.
Mr. Henry seemed to be a man who couldn't bear loneliness, and he quickly revealed all his situation.
It turned out that he was not as relaxed and comfortable as he looked. As early as the beginning of the mutation, homeless people, black robbers and even gunmen stormed the coffee shop and tried to steal everything inside.
The cash register, tables, chairs, benches, mirrors and clocks were also damaged by people at that time, and even he himself was almost killed.
The repeater expressed deep sympathy for Henry's misfortune, but it also aroused further curiosity: "Then Mr. Henry, how did you drive away those gangsters?"
Normally speaking, an ordinary middle-aged man running a coffee shop cannot fight against a thug who buys for zero yuan.
Henry just smiled bitterly when he heard this: "It's just good luck. There was a gang member among my regular customers, and he happened to arrive and blasted away those people."
After that, his gaze penetrated the broken glass window and landed on the window of a house across the street.
The tape recorder followed the other person's line of sight and indeed found a tattooed young man wearing sunglasses.
Sensing his attention, the latter immediately met his gaze with a threatening look.
He lowered his head subconsciously to avoid exposing his more arrogant and aggressive look.
"So that's it. This is what the so-called good people are rewarded with."
The repeater inevitably had some doubts in his mind.
They have no direct evidence that Henry is a vampire, and the latter's kindness does not seem to be fake in his eyes. Is it possible that there is someone else who is the real vampire?
And Henry is just an ordinary cafe owner with a strange charm?
Not every unusually attractive person is a vampire...
Not only him, but also the NewTap liaison who works one-on-one with the superheroes behind the scenes feels a little confused, and it is difficult to judge his true identity.
Therefore, supporters asked the repeater to try to lure the opponent to the vicinity of the NewTap Building.
The repeater decisively ignored this rash strategy. They could not guarantee that the vampires did not know the location of the New Tap Building, which would probably expose their intentions.
Feeling a headache, the repeater immediately asked Chen Zhou for help, but got the classic "I don't know" answer.
The latter's prophecy is still difficult to break through the interference of the plane, and can only use stupid methods such as drone surveillance to collect intelligence.
In fact, even if the gods come in person, spells such as camp detection are still unable to take effect normally.
After all, it’s not like the Yage Demon Realm has never shut down gods. The famous Vecna has been here before.
But Chen Zhou obviously didn't think Henry was just an ordinary good guy.
First of all, do normal people wander around at night?
It was obviously a behavior that looked like hunting for prey.
Therefore, he recommended that the repeater use certain characteristics of vampires to test them. “The appearance of the vampires is the same as in life, but their features become cold and savage, making them look like wolf-like predators.
“Similar to lichs, they are vain and decadent, and may consider themselves nobles.
"Despite their human features, vampires are easily identifiable as they cast no shadows or leave reflections in mirrors.
"At the same time, vampires also possess the supernatural ability to dominate a person's will with just their gaze, and to control lower creatures such as rats and bats."
Based on the tone of someone's recital, the repeater suspected that the other person was rereading from a certain vampire magazine, but unfortunately he had no definite evidence.
But is this creature afraid of silver weapons?
He remembered that there seemed to be silver cutlery in the cafe.
"It's not entirely true that vampires are afraid of silver. Strictly speaking, they have resistance to weapons other than silver and magic weapons, but silver and magic weapons can penetrate these resistances.
"If you are strong enough, you can blast them in an instant even with the fist of a non-magical weapon. Do you want to try it?"
The repeater declined the offer.
After thinking for a moment, he decided to start from another angle.
"Mr. Henry, do you have a diesel generator at home? We may be able to restore power in a short time and bake hot bread or cakes."
Hearing this, Henry rubbed his beard and subconsciously recalled when those eggs in his refrigerator were from.
After the power outage, he tried to eat raw eggs but got infected and hasn't touched the refrigerator since.
"Of course there is. That thing was originally prepared for emergencies, but my waiter ran away after the mutation and I don't know how to use it."
The repeater puffed up his chest: "I know how to use it. I'll teach you how to use the generator later. This is a rare opportunity. How about we have a few hot bites first?"
Henry readily agreed, handed the key to the basement to the other party, and went to see what other usable ingredients were in the refrigerator.
"Oh, the eggs are smelly and the milk is rancid. Should I throw them away earlier?"
Now, he has no hope of restoring power to Gotham City. Food that requires electricity to preserve should really be eaten early or thrown away.
After thinking for a moment, he came to the freezer again, stuck his head in and rummaged around.
And just when Henry buried half of his body in the freezer, the repeater quietly approached the middle-aged figure holding a silver-plated table knife in his hand.
There was an unnatural look of determination in his eyes.
From the time the two met until now, Mr. Henry has revealed three flaws.
First, being able to stop a homeless man from being entangled with just his eyes is definitely not an ability that a normal human being can possess.
Second, the dim cafe, the broken mirror and clock, and the complete absence of glassware all indicate a problem. Henry is deliberately avoiding the appearance of such smooth objects in the cafe.
Third, although he was protected by gang members, no one taught him how to use a simple-to-operate diesel generator.
To sum up, the repeater has concluded that Henry is either a vampire or a vampire's cover!
Making a decision in his heart, he charged at the figure with a silver-plated knife without hesitation!
