Chapter 10

I felt a shiver run through my body, and the bubbling hot pot in front of me could not suppress the chill rising from the soles of my feet

Upon hearing these two sounds, I saw Li Duidui frown, say nothing, and pull out the most fearsome landlord's weapon. With a "click," he opened the door and entered the room. Inside, the air was thick with smoke, and the light was dim. Three large men were seated around a small rattan round table, where a disordered array of playing cards lay scattered. Two doctors in white coats were smoking, shaking their legs, and turned their heads in unison towards the doorway.

It is indeed I who dreams every night, with the scenes and characters in my dreams becoming increasingly vivid, and the stories becoming clearer and clearer

I also followed Li Duidui's gaze and looked up at the building. The old, dark residential building had only one unit on the seventh floor with the lights still on; that was Xiao Lang's room, located just below Li Peipei.

"Li Peipei." I called her on the coffin lid, "Are you alright? Are you still alive?"

And I have also mentioned that I am an author with limited imagination ... I need to engage in some practical experiences ...

Yuan Shao suddenly darkened his expression, serious and solemn: "How do you know if it is small if you haven't seen it?"

Where is good? Have the overdue rent been won back?" Li Duoduo interjected with a single sentence, directly inserting it into Xiao Lang's face, leaving him pale. He stammered for a long time without being able to say a word, hesitated for a while, as if he was about to cry, pulled out the money from his pocket, counted it sheet by sheet, and handed it to Li Duoduo: "There are still four months left..."

Sometimes I see a general from an ancient battlefield, but more often I see a woman with her child hiding in a city under heavy bombardment. They plan to escape the city, but on the morning before their escape, the air raid strikes again. They take refuge in a nearby air raid shelter, where there are familiar faces and strangers alike. The expressions on everyone's faces are profoundly numb. Yet within this numbness, there is a hint of unease and panic emanating from their souls.

Saying this, she completely disregarded the presence of several men in the room, abruptly pulled aside her outer garment, turned her back, revealing her smooth back: "Can you remove that blood handprint for me?"

Another bomb! Two more cards! A pair against ten! The little wolf exclaimed with excitement, "I won, spring plus bomb, flip flip flip flip."

I was thinking about that sinister blood handprint on Li Peipei, wondering how it has developed after such a long time. I felt a mix of anger, annoyance, and urgency as I looked at these three, who appeared completely unconcerned. In that moment, I truly understood the distress Li Duidui must feel every day while managing such a group of unruly beings.

The two individuals pointed upstairs and said, "No entry allowed."

Li Duidui stepped forward and walked upstairs, and I followed closely behind. I did not intend to get involved in Xiao Lang's matters, after all, Li Duidui would take care of it. The landlord now had a rather displeased expression, eagerly wanting to confront the unruly tenants who were playing loud poker late into the night.

The doctor followed their advice and brought their medical kit to examine Li Peipei, finally accomplishing something of significance. However, after the physical examination, the two concluded that Li Peipei's health was generally fine: "The only issue is slightly elevated blood sugar, likely due to excessive consumption of high-sugar powdered drinks. Make sure to drink more water today"

It is unacceptable

I almost spat out a piece of tripe back into the pot

"Controlling the dead... isn't this something only your corpse drivers can do?" In recent days, I have also learned some things about the corpse drivers. I asked, "Is there a traitor among you that led to this incident of the zombie going missing?"

Although they said so, I am still very afraid. She made a suggestion, "Would you sleep in the coffin with me?"

Hmm?

Three against one, I won

Li Duidui's voice was like a victorious dawn appearing before my eyes: "Li Duidui! Come back quickly!" As soon as I shouted this, I suddenly heard a violent tearing sound from above, as if the summer thunder could pierce through the entire sky and earth

I immediately followed him step by step, clutching the chopsticks in my hand as if they were a safe lifeline

It is just like the chaotic gambling scene depicted on television, oh... this is the gambling scene

My knees and ankles throbbed with pain, and the loud noise caught the attention of several people downstairs, who all came upstairs to see what was happening

The two middle-aged doctors turned their heads, took another puff of their cigarettes, and said in unison, "It's not worth it." They had completely lost their spirits, their voices hoarse and weary

I turned around in anger, climbed the stairs, and knocked on Li Peipei's door. No one responded from inside, and I began to panic, my mind racing through a thousand ways Li Peipei could have died at home

You are too young. I also replied while eating

At this moment, Xiao Lang displayed a hint of his usual shyness, lowering his head, offering a faint smile, while nervously reaching for the money on the table and softly saying, "Hello"

"I am not a corpse driver." Yu Shao's voice was extremely low, completely devoid of his usual playful demeanor. In this manner, he truly resembled a composed man in his forties or fifties. "Only when I encounter a zombie will my corpse bell ring."

King of Spades

I suddenly felt a pang of sympathy for Li Peipei. How indifferent is the relationship among you vampires? A few non-human beings with unfathomable powers stand in the back to watch the excitement, while I, a mere human, am the only one exerting effort to save someone

"No?" Li Peipei said, "It’s impossible! I saw it with my own eyes earlier, right here." She struggled to bend her hand to gesture. In my memory, the child's handprint was indeed in that spot on her back, but at this moment, her smooth and fair skin resembled a sacred place, with nothing on it, not even pores that were too small to be seen.

I am filled with疑惑, when did Xiao Lang make a few friends who can play Dou Di Zhu late at night

She did not answer me, but instead turned and walked towards the other side of the rooftop. Upon seeing this, Shao also put down his chopsticks and stood up. He took a step forward, at which point I heard a crisp ringing sound, coming from the bell on Shao's foot that had never rung before.

Li Peipei paused for a moment and finally came to a stop

Climbing up to the seventh floor, through the dilapidated iron gate, the voice of the little wolf came from inside: "3 Ks and a 5."

I returned to my room, and it seemed that the blood handprint that appeared on Li Peipei that day just faded away without a trace. In the following days, Li Peipei did not show any abnormalities, and that handprint seemed to be just an illusion created between Li Peipei and me that day

Request Su Su to come specifically for one thing, which is to confront the old man.

Su Xiaoxin ... ... '' He just replied with my name, and I didn't have time to hear what he said afterward. After the thunderous roar, I felt the small hot pot table above my head being ruthlessly overturned. A huge black robe, enveloped in thick fog, floated from behind me to in front of me. I widened my eyes in shock, instantly recalling the black-clad man who attacked me and Li Peipei that day in the park

Little letter

I would like to know the shape of his muscles and the muscle morphology during movement

Li Peipei often feels bored at home, so I asked Yu Shao to go out and buy some groceries, and we made a pot of homemade hot pot on the rooftop. Today, it is just the three of us eating hot pot. The others all had things to do and went out, even the little wolf, who hasn't had any work for ages, seems to have received an invitation for a performance and left early in the morning

Someone shouted this phrase, and the crowd, like panicked cattle and sheep, rushed towards the exit without any dignity, scrambling in fear. Some fell down, and thus their footsteps trampled over them. Some cried out, some snarled, some pushed through the people in front of them, and some shoved their loved ones forward. Yet, the number of those who fell to the ground kept increasing, layer upon layer. People were like the meat in a slaughterhouse, pushed and squeezed by the force called fear, piling on top of those below them, suffocating and being crushed. Finally, the air raid shelter collapsed with a thunderous roar, and everything fell into silence.

Finally, the air raid shelter collapsed with a thunderous roar, and everything fell into silence.

The last comment received one hundred likes, making it the most liked comment among all my comments so far. This reflects the eager anticipation of my readers for the storyline. Therefore, it successfully caught my attention

As Shao was munching on a twisted doughnut, he muttered, "I can't really see any problem, but since both of you say you've seen blood handprints, there must be some issue. However, it's fine. During this time, before we find those zombies, I will be staying here, just downstairs. If anything comes up, feel free to come find me." He paused for a moment and threw a flirtatious glance at Li Peipei, "It's also fine to come find me for no reason."

I shouted down once, only to see two vampires downstairs confronting Li Duidui: "Director... we haven't had a salary increase in a long time..."

The doctor left, and Li Duidui and Xiao Lang also turned and walked away. Li Duidui only left a remark: "Remember to fix the door for me"

With a frown, Shao Mei took out a small brush and a yellow talisman from his waist. He swiftly drew on it and recited a spell. The yellow talisman shot out like lightning and directly adhered to Li Peipei's back

Do not say anything, quickly hide and call Li Dui Dui, the visitor comes with ill intentions

Come up and open the door

After listening to my words, Li Duidui unexpectedly stood on my side: "Did you hear that? Everyone, be more reliable." His tone was serious and cold, carrying an authoritative presence that commanded respect without anger.

He looked aggrieved, while Li Duidui accepted the money without any hesitation. The two doctors beside them wore a weary expression and sighed, but I suddenly recalled something:

But that still requires your stamp... The finance department said that every time the proposal for a salary increase is submitted, you have returned it.

The coffin lay quiet for a moment, then a small crack opened: "Grave robber? Can you cure the corpse poison?"

I was unable to cover the eyes of the other man in time, so I had to cover my own eyes instead. However, the room fell silent for a long time, until Shao finally spoke: "Beautiful lady, you have shown me a very lovely piece of snow-white skin, but I did not see any handprints."

"Living and living, don't mind me, don't mind me, let me stay alone in the coffin, I am afraid"

I am in a life-and-death situation, yet they are downstairs discussing salary increases

The doctor gave a rather indifferent reminder and packed the suitcase: "If there's nothing else, we will take our leave now"

Yuan Shao turned back to look at me and said, "Stay close to me"

Everyone has left, leaving only Li and me staring at each other in the room

Ah! Li Peipei exclaimed in surprise, suddenly lifting the coffin lid and jumping out. "Yu Shaoshao!" She grabbed Yu Shao and lifted him up. "You are here! I am saved! Show me what you have."

A pair of blood-red eyes, uniquely belonging to a vampire, stands out particularly strikingly and terrifyingly in the thick fog

If readers want to engage with "Dui Ye," how can I depict it from my perspective to create the strongest sense of immersion for them

Yushao stroked his chin and said, "Let the two doctors examine her body to see if there is anything unusual."

How large can the rooftop of this old residential building be? I often play here, and I have roughly estimated that Li Peipei is about to reach the edge. If we go any further, we might fall off!

I am extremely anxious: "Don't you know to break down the door if she doesn't open it? Two vampires and a werewolf, can they really be stopped by a flimsy iron door?"

What kind of politeness is more important than saving a life? They are already such big vampires and werewolves, can't they be a bit more reasonable!

I shook my head, rejecting this proposal from the reader. Although I am an author who generally enjoys catering to readers, lacking a strong personal style and having little integrity, there are indeed some things that I simply cannot do, and there is nothing I can do about it

Hello

I was left speechless.

As mentioned earlier, I am a realist, so the works I create depict the daily life of Li Duidui in a straightforward manner, with the perspective originating from my own eyes. In other words, in the comic, I essentially serve as the female protagonist, while Li Duidui is the primary subject of my critiques, making him the male protagonist

Finally

Everything is so chaotic, before I was lifted into the sky and pierced through that thick fog, I could only manage to leave behind a desperate shout: "Li Duidui, you must live up to the little twist I gave you! We had an agreement!"

For salary increases, please contact the finance department

I have drawn these, each time with increasing clarity and realism. I showed them to Yu Shao and Li Duoduo, hoping to provide some assistance in their search. However, while focusing on these drawings, the updates for my online series "Vampire Series - Vampire Prince Duoduo's Gut-Wrenching Adventures" have slowed down. It has been several days, and I am still at the scene where Li Duoduo is wearing pajamas and cotton slippers to confront someone.

Even slippers and pajamas can make me look stylish!

"No smoking." Li Duidui glanced at the two of them, and they promptly extinguished their cigarettes. Li Duidui then shifted his gaze to Xiaolang, "You better have an explanation."

Chongqing has always been a city with a lot of fog, but this sudden thick fog, resembling clouds in the mountains, is something I have encountered for the first time. The visibility instantly dropped to ten meters, and I could only see Li Peipei walking towards the rooftop without looking back through the hazy fog.

The knee collided with the small hot pot table, nearly causing the hot pot soup to spill out

Little Wolf slightly stiffened his body and looked up, glancing at Li Duidui and then at me, his eyes filled with a plea for help. Meanwhile, I was still in shock over Little Wolf's luck in the game. A thousand thanks to the fact that I had previously declined Li Peipei's suggestion to play Mahjong by claiming I didn't know how to play; otherwise, I would probably have lost all my savings for the rest of my life. Seeing that he had no hope of getting my assistance, he shifted his gaze to Yu Shao behind me. Yu Shao greeted him with a bright smile: "Oh, I am your new neighbor, hello there, Little Wolf." Seeing that he had no hope of getting my assistance, he shifted his gaze to Yu Shao behind me. Yu Shao greeted him with a bright smile: "Oh, I am your new neighbor, hello there, Little Wolf."

Why is it not restlessness and heat? After all, that is Li Duidui! Is that a normal person? If one day such a scene were to occur between him and me, it would certainly involve some terrifying matters behind the scenes

As soon as he finished speaking, a thick fog suddenly arose around him

I can no longer rely on them. Gritting my teeth, I took two steps back and charged forward, delivering a powerful kick that struck the iron door of Li Peipei with a resounding "thud." The door, already in disrepair due to age, was indeed kicked open by my fierce blow.

Each dream becomes increasingly vivid, ultimately clear enough to resemble a book, even allowing me to hear that woman's final wish: "I want to find my child and take him away from here"

"Gathering for gambling on my territory?" Li Duidu's tone rose slightly, "Are you having fun? Hmm?" As soon as he spoke, I noticed that Little Wolf almost instinctively shuddered. The two older doctor uncles then threw down their cards, stood up, and politely greeted, "Director."

After all, I cannot rely on my imagination to think about what expression Li Duidui would have when I pin him down and strip him of his clothes one day

It is unacceptable

Why doesn't the young lady draw me? If you are willing, I can undress completely for you to draw!" As Yu Shao gasped from the spiciness of the hot pot, he said to me, "I can pose in any position you want.

Li Peipei has turned into a zombie I am shocked

Li Peipei was laughing heartily beside me when, all of a sudden, her laughter came to an abrupt halt. I thought she had choked and was about to hand her some water when I saw Li Peipei suddenly stand up.

I immediately ran to the corner, leaving Yu Shao to confront Li Peipei alone. Yu Shao did not dare to truly harm her, so he did not act with real force, while Li Peipei, despite being restrained, remained indifferent. The two of them were locked in a fierce struggle.

Oh... just thinking about it makes me a bit anxious

I should not have any hope for these non-human vampires

I really want to take off his pajamas for him! I want to have a rough time!

Li Duidui had only one sentence: "Su Xiaoxin, you come to fix this door"

And the mother who had been searching for her child ultimately did not find her own child

Little Wolf didn't watch the door at all, counting the cards in his hand clearly, he joyfully threw them onto the table: "A straight!"

I will wait for you to come and save me

He walked towards the direction where Li Peipei was, and when he reached her side, he first looked at her for a moment. Seeing her eyes closed and her expression calm, he then reached out to grasp Li Peipei's wrist. However, at the very moment when Yao Shao held onto Peipei's wrist, Li Peipei suddenly opened her eyes!

We agreed that you would protect me

What happened? I asked her, looking up.

A woman has lost her child, and she desperately searches in the air raid shelter, calling out repeatedly, but no one responds to her. The only replies she receives are the frenzied sounds of explosions outside, followed by the earth-shattering tremors.

I was taken aback, and in a moment of panic, I thrust a chopstick directly into Li Peipei's mouth from behind Shao, blocking her. The chopstick still had some of the garlic oil sauce that hadn't been licked clean, and when Li Peipei bit into it, it was as if she had bitten into hot coals. Her body instinctively recoiled backward, and I quickly apologized to her: "Peipei, does it hurt? I know you don't eat garlic; I didn't mean to do it!"

Her voice sounded very spirited. Although my worry and anxiety seemed a bit excessive, what mattered most was that she was fine. I reassured her, "Don't be afraid, your brother Li Duidui is here too. I brought two doctors and a corpse handler to save you, ensuring that nothing goes wrong."

I hid under the small hot pot table, holding a bowl of garlic paste in my hands. While observing the situation over there, I called Li Duidui. The beeping sound on the line made me grateful that the fog hadn't interrupted the signal, yet it also made me anxious, as the standby sound felt longer than ever before

I was given no chance to react; I only felt a tug at the back of my collar. On the other side, Shao was entangled with Li Peipei, trying to rescue me but unable to break free. The corpse bell on his foot rang desperately as if the machine had malfunctioned

... ...

"Controlling the dead." Yu Shao's expression was grave, "It is a technique for controlling the dead applied to the living."

I am also very afraid of your coffin

After all this time, they actually did not take Li to see a doctor!

The comments below contain many requests for updates, but more importantly, there are numerous evaluations regarding Li Duidui in that particular episode

Accompany me! I called her name, but she did not stop.

I was taken aback and withdrew my hand. Upon closer inspection, the blood handprint on Li Peipei's back had already disappeared

I could not be bothered with him, so I went into the room and saw Li Peipei's coffin, which she had painted in a myriad of colors, placed in the center of the room, the lid tightly sealed.

This way, I can write more realistically! Unfortunately, Li Duidui has little time to return, and even less time to undress in front of me! I can only frequently stroll on the rooftop and downstairs, hoping to occasionally catch a glimpse and have a good look.

I just want to quickly go up and see Li Peipei, and then go home to wash up and sleep. Yu Shao obediently followed behind me, crunching on the fried dough twists, climbing up the stairs, because the room that Li Dui Dui arranged for him is right next to that of Little Wolf.

"We must certainly be polite," a vampire spoke up

I am so ... ...

David is a plaster statue that he often painted during his art studies

It is not her, but another person!

"Little Shao Shao." I called out to the child at the door who was munching on a fried dough twist and watching the commotion. He was indeed the most obedient one, walking in dutifully and greeting Li Peipei, who was inside the coffin: "Beautiful lady, we meet again."

She turned her head, gripping Yu Shao's wrist with one hand and clutching his neck with the other. When she opened her mouth, her fangs were longer than anything I had ever seen. It was as if the oldest desires within her body had been awakened, and she bit down on Yu Shao's neck.

Indeed, there are some. I will testify for Li Peipei, because if it were not for mutual corroboration, I would probably doubt it myself, thinking that I was just seeing things today

It is going to collapse! It is going to be blown apart!

After reading these comments, I realize that my gaze towards Li Duidui has clearly changed; I am more inclined to look at the parts of him that are concealed by clothing below the neck

It was the first time I lost my temper at Little Wolf, and he was clearly frightened, looking at me with a wronged expression as if he had been reprimanded by Li Duoduo. The two doctors beside us stared blankly at me and then at Li Duoduo, while Yushao behind me remarked, "Wow, the way the young lady reprimands people is so cool!"

He supported me, and in my rage, I was somewhat surprised, then I heard him say: "It's already late at night, the win or lose is just equivalent to two months' rent, hasn't the union paid you your salaries?"

Little Wolf weakly began to explain: "In the evening, the two of them came to accompany Peipei for a check-up... Peipei wouldn't open the door no matter what, so I brought them in to sit for a while, since Peipei was upstairs anyway. If we heard any unusual sounds, we could go up. Then... there just happened to be playing cards on the table... and coincidentally, we all know how to play Landlord..."

I do not deny

She ... ...

How to resolve anger? Only through strong confrontation

Returning to the ground floor of the residential building, I heard a roar in the stillness of the night. I was a bit taken aback and glanced at Li Duidui. As expected, he had already furrowed his brows and was looking up at the seventh floor, pushing up his gold-rimmed glasses.

Oh? After all this time, it turns out to be an old acquaintance. But then again, it makes sense; most of the people that Li Duoduo knows are likely also known by Li Peipei

Li Peipei has been on leave at home for many days. Whenever she has nothing to do, she studies me. She said to me: "Li Duidui seems to have become your David."

"Wait a moment, you two... shouldn't the vampire doctor be attending to Li Peipei? Why are you playing cards here? Where is Li Peipei?"
