The town of Palo Alto.

Another peaceful day.

After Lance quit his job as a tutor, he came to the small town church on the recommendation of Lovell and worked as a tea artist, specializing in making tea for the church members to cultivate their body and mind.

He arrived at the church promptly at six in the morning and left at six in the afternoon.

The believers are all kind and friendly, and Lance is very satisfied with this job.

Only sometimes, after staying for too long, he would feel a little uncomfortable.

In addition, he always felt that someone was watching him secretly.

And it seems to be Lovell.

......

On the other side, at Freya's house.

Anya and Dennis approached her for a walk.

The three of them walked above the farmland.

Anya was a little depressed. She kicked the stones under her feet and said, "I also want to go to the imperial capital with you guys. Although it's far away, I heard that the imperial capital is very prosperous. It must be great to go to college there."

Unlike her, she can only stay in a small town.

Freya and Dennis looked at each other. Freya was the first to speak. She didn't quite understand: "Anya, didn't you also apply for a university in the capital? My mother also said that your mother told everyone in the vegetable market that you were also admitted to a university in the capital."

Dennis held a dogtail grass in his mouth and agreed vaguely: "Yes, yes, my mother told me about this too."

Anya suddenly stopped, lowered her head and remained silent for a while.

Freya and Dennis were confused.

When Anya looked up again, they saw two tears in her eyes. She cried and said, "It's useless for me to pass the exam. My mother won't let me go. She said the capital is too far away and wants me to stay in the small town."

Freya and Dennis were shocked.

One of them quickly took out a handkerchief and handed it to her, comforting her and saying "don't cry, don't cry", while the other one frowned and gave her some advice, asking her to go to the imperial capital secretly with them.

Anya took Freya's handkerchief, said thank you, wiped her tears, and rejected Dennis's proposal.

"Although I really want to go, forget it. After all, she is my mother and I can't bear to leave her. I have decided to stay."

For some reason, Anya clenched her handkerchief, looked at Freya who looked worried, and asked in a low voice: "Freya, your parents...didn't they say anything?"

Freya hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth: "Actually, my parents don't agree with me going. They are worried about my safety. Besides, I just came back. If I go to the imperial capital, it will be difficult for us to meet again."

Anya couldn't help but stepped forward and grabbed her hand, "Well, in that case, let's stay together, okay!"

Freya said: "No, I will go."

She had no choice but to go. Even if she didn't go to college, she had to rush to the imperial capital to attend the vampire banquet.

Anya didn't know her friend was feeling bitter, so she asked again, "Are you willing to give it up? Are your parents willing to give it up?"

"Okay, stop talking, Anya."

Freya let go of her hand, not wanting to talk about it anymore.

"Yes, I'm sorry." Anya felt a pang in her heart when she noticed her friend's resistance, and took a few steps back: "We are my best friends, I just don't want to be separated from you."

After saying that, she turned around and ran away crying.

Freya and Dennis looked at each other in silence.

They haven't seen each other for a long time, and a lot of things have happened to them. They all have secrets in their hearts, and there seems to be a gap between them.

"I'm tired, let's go home, Dennis."

"Ah."

-

Some people worry about the future, while others are busy as hell every day.

Angus belongs to the latter category.

He is still busy today, running around the police station and the town, dealing with public security issues of all sizes.

Recently, garlic and silver knives have been selling like hot cakes in the town's vegetable market. Residents heard that they can protect against vampires, so they all rushed to buy them.

Two people even fought over the last bunch of garlic and were sent to the hospital with blood all over their heads.

This kind of thing happened more than once.

Angus felt speechless and exhausted.

It was almost six o'clock before he was able to relax.

After he finished his meal, he went to the church and received a bottle of holy water and a silver cross, which was already a must-have weapon in every household.

His family also has one, which was given to him by his parents.

His parents also urged him to get one to use for self-defense.

Angus didn't believe in the vampire rumors before and didn't come to the church to receive the news. Until he saw the surveillance footage recently, he had no choice but to believe it.

As soon as he left the church, he saw a familiar figure.

"Mr. Lance." he called out.

The figure in front stopped and turned around. He had a delicate face and a gentle expression as before. It was indeed Lance.

Angus said: "I just happened to be looking for you, let's go together."

——Rose Manor——

Just as Lance and Angus reached the door, Dennis, who was out of breath, ran over, holding a stack of books in his hands, muttering: "Fortunately, fortunately, I made it, I made it."

Lance wondered, "Dennis, why are you running so fast?"

Dennis was still gasping for breath, and Angus answered Lance for him: "I asked him to come."

Lance's eyes flickered between the boy and the sheriff. Even though he was confused, he still invited the two men in.

"Excuse me," Angus and Dennis said in unison.

Lance smiled and said it was okay, but he was worried in his heart.

Since meeting Yu Huan, his life has become more and more "lively".

Even the Rose Manor, which was avoided by everyone, was no longer peaceful, and people kept coming to visit and pay a visit.

Should we say it is a good thing or a bad thing?

But it is undeniable that he likes this kind of excitement.

Lance's eyebrows were gentle and he gently raised the corners of his lips.
