Mofan asked Ling Ling to replay the video. As she thought, Liu Xian suddenly came to a stop in the middle of her steps. However, when Mo Fan took a closer look, he could not see anything in front of her.
Mofan noticed that she had taken a few more steps forward. The place was not well-lit. Her pace gradually slowed down in the darkness, and she eventually came to a stop. Unfortunately, a pillar was blocking half of her body. On the surface, it looked like she was leaning on the pillar to rest, like a patient who was having a seizure.
However, after watching the video a few times, it felt like something was grabbing onto her. She was unable to move.
After a long time, she looked weak, as if she couldn't breathe. Her body stiffened, and she slowly fell to the ground.
Not long after, the video showed Huo Tuo rushing over. He did not check on Liu Xian's condition right away, but cursed furiously at the empty subway station, as if he was chasing after something.
Huo Tuo carried Liu Xian out of the subway station. It was too late to send her for treatment.
"It seems like he did see something," said Mofan.
"I've watched the video before. There isn't anyone hiding behind the pillar, but it's strange that half of Liu Xian's body is blocked. It seems like something is grabbing onto her. Mofan, you're a Shadow Magician. Do you think someone is using a Shadow Spell to hide behind the pillar? The video is in black and white, so it's hard to tell if there's a shadow moving around," analyzed Ling Ling.
"That's very likely. A place like the subway station is full of shadows, so it's possible for a Shadow Spell to move around freely," nodded Mofan.
That was all the information provided by the video. They could roughly confirm that the culprit had the Shadow Element.
Following it, Mofan and Ling Ling went to ask the person Mofan was pretending to be, but they discovered that he was just an ordinary worker. He did not provide them with any useful information.
Without any clues, Mofan and Ling Ling had no choice but to visit Liu Ru's women's college to see if she could provide them with anything useful. If she did not provide them with any useful information, it was unlikely that they would be able to complete the quest.
…
Mofan just found out that there was a women's university in Shanghai. How does this university look like? They nurtured nurses, stewardesses, and models. It could be said that there were as many beautiful women as there were clouds. The people nearby called it a man's paradise.
Mofan deeply agreed. Just these few keywords seemed to be able to lead people to endless fanciful thoughts.
When he arrived at Liu Ru's class, he saw a bunch of pretty girls. Mofan almost forgot his purpose of coming here.
"Are you looking for Liu Ru? She didn't feel well today, so she went back to her dormitory first. Maybe something happened," said an open-minded girl in the class.
When she said that, the girls around her laughed. One of the girls with a fuller figure said, "Who would come three or four times a month? Maybe she was fooling around with someone outside and got sick."
"Don't be so mean. His sister just passed away."
"We're just saying what we have to say. It's been a long time. She's always asking for leave. We asked her to go to the doctor, but she always refused. God knows if she has contracted a shameful illness."
It was obvious that Liu Ru was not well-liked in this class.
It made sense. Liu Ru had a pretty face and a nice figure. She was emitting a weak and melancholic aura. Mofan had interacted with her before and had a good impression of her. It was inevitable that a girl like her would be ostracized by the group of b * tches.
…
Mofan used the name of a friend to visit Liu Ru.
At this time, the students were all in class. There were aunties looking after the dormitory. However, for Mofan, who had the Shadow Element, sneaking into the girls' dormitory was a piece of cake.
He arrived at Liu Ru's dormitory. It was a room at the end of the corridor near the woods outside. Mofan did not barge in directly. He politely knocked on the door.
"You skipped class again … Huh, why are you here?" Liu Ru did not seem to be in a good mood. She was even more surprised to see Mofan.
"I have something to ask you. I came here to look for you. Your classmate told me that you're sick, so I'm here to visit you," said Mofan.
"I'm fine. Thank you for your concern. Also, I met my sister's friend who works next door yesterday. So, please don't disturb me again," said Liu Ru with a cautious look.
? Fan was stunned. He did not expect his identity to be exposed so quickly.
He smiled awkwardly. Just as he was about to explain, Liu Ru had already closed the door.
Mofan left helplessly. He was at his wit's end. It seemed like it would be very difficult to complete the quest. He had no clue at all. Even if he knew that Liu Xian was bitten to death by something, he would not be able to catch the vampire.
He met up with Ling Ling at the entrance of the dormitory. Ling Ling asked about the situation.
"Say, Liu Ru's health has not been good recently. Is it possible that …" said Ling Ling with a wild imagination.
Mofan's eyes lit up.
It seemed like her classmates said that she was suffering from severe anemia.
Could it be that she was not sick at all? Could it be that her blood had been secretly sucked away without her noticing?
"Huo Tuo also said that most vampires have their own preferences. Liu Ru and Liu Xian are twins. Perhaps the vampire's preference is this kind of twin. So, after making his move on the older sister, he came to pester the younger sister!" Mofan guessed.
"So, from now on, let's keep an eye on Liu Ru. Maybe we can catch that guy," said Ling Ling.
Mofan was so happy that he could not help but kiss the smart Ling Ling when he thought that there was hope for the quest. Unfortunately, Ling Ling had already seen through everything. She covered her red cheeks with her small, fair hand.
"Please, I still want to get married," said Ling Ling with a look of disdain.
Mofan laughed dryly.
…
Mofan and Ling Ling waited until nighttime. They crouched in the woods with a fence, waiting for the right opportunity.
They did not find anything on the first night. Liu Ru stayed in the dormitory the whole time. Even her meals were packed by her roommates.
On the second night, there was some movement in the woods. Unfortunately, it was a student meeting a guy from another school.
"Would it kill you to get a room?" Mofan crouched in the woods and listened to the discordant voices not far away.
Luckily, Ling Ling was not around. It would not be good if she saw something like this.
In the second half of the night, Mofan felt like he was about to fall asleep. However, he suddenly smelled the energy of the Shadow Element lingering in the air.
Mofan immediately woke up.
