The morning sun was very good, but Gu En, who was sitting in the car, couldn't help frowning, as if he didn't like the strong light very much.

"Put on sunglasses if you feel uncomfortable." Wang Yang, who was controlling the steering wheel, said.

"That would be even more uncomfortable." Gu En said nonchalantly while turning the ring on his left hand.

Gu En has become accustomed to hitchhiking to and from get off work every day.Wang Yang, who somehow became a full-time driver, didn't seem to have any objection to this matter. Every now and then, he would lend the car to Gu En, so that Gu En would not have to take a taxi home when he was hunting.

The red car turned a corner at the intersection, and the sun was finally temporarily blocked.

"You look good, how did you smell last night?" Wang Yang raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Barely able to resist hunger." Gu En was a little listless.

Taking advantage of the red light, Wang Yang glanced at him, and said worriedly: "You have been hunting less and less frequently this year. I'm really afraid that one day you will starve to death."

Gu En curled his lips and said nothing, obviously he was quite helpless about his "anorexia".

"Or change the taste next time, maybe you like the taste of women better." Wang Yang suggested.

"Thank you, you'd better take care of yourself." Gu En said.

The car drove into the commercial area full of office buildings, Wang Yang parked the car in the garage, and then took the elevator with Gu En to go upstairs.Wang Yang kept saying hello to the acquaintances he met all the way, while Gu En remained calm, but everyone didn't take it seriously, obviously they had long been used to his demeanor.

"Gu En!!!" Gu En's immediate superior, Li Jiajia, appeared in a hurry with a sample of a magazine. He stood in front of Gu En in a posture that most men would not know how to use, and knocked on the magazine with the magazine in his hand. He tapped Gu En on the head, and said, "If you can't handle Lin Yuedong's special, you can just pack up and leave."

Li's family is probably the only person in the world who would ignore Gu En's cold gaze and dare to knock him on the head.Seeing this, Wang Yang cast a sympathetic look at Gu En, and then ran away.

Gu En glanced at the empty hall with a cold face, most of the workstations were still vacant.Although the Li family has a big temper, he is not a guy with low EQ. He would scold Gu En so blatantly because he was out of breath and there was no one in the hall at the moment.

"I couldn't make an appointment, and he said he didn't have time." Gu En pulled out the chair and sat down at his desk, and turned on the computer.

"With your dead look, if you have time and people say you don't have time, won't you say a few nice words?" The Li family continued to poke Gu En's head with one hand on his hips and a magazine in the other.

Gu En's expression that was so cold that it was about to freeze was not harmful to the Li family's family at all, but the Li family's frustration came to Gu En's place, and it might not be effective.

Sure enough, Gu En said, "No."

The Li family sighed exaggeratedly, and said: "I have an appointment with Lin Yuedong, and you will accompany me to meet him this afternoon. If you can't make it this time, you won't even take this year's bonus."

Seeing that Gu En still had a calm expression, the Li family added another sentence: "At that time, even Wang Yang's bonus will be deducted together, making him regret making a friend like you."

Wang Yang, who had been hiding in the corner, couldn't help raising his eyebrows when he heard the words, and only after the Li family returned to his office arrogantly, did he come to Gu En's side.

"Don't talk." Gu En said coldly.

Hearing this, Wang Yang had no choice but to leave with a smile on his face. After a while, he ran to Gu En's ear and whispered, "If my bonus is deducted, you can come to work by subway in the future."

When Gu En heard the words, he turned his head and looked at him expressionlessly, and Wang Yang whispered again: "If you go hunting again, don't borrow my car."

"Get out!" Gu En said.

"Why do you call yourself by your name?" Wang Yang trotted away after leaving a word, leaving Gu En with an indifferent face.

Gu En's desktop is neat and empty. Apart from the computer, paper and pen, there are only a few sample issues of the magazine, and there are special features or interviews written by him in those sample issues.

He casually flipped through two sample magazines, then found the relevant information about Lin Yuedong that he had collected on the computer, opened the interview outline and read it absently.

Lin Yuedong, senior photographer.

In the past two years, almost every issue of the photography magazine Gu En edited published his work, but he kept a low profile and never accepted an interview invitation from the magazine.

The editor-in-chief, Li Jiajia, had given Gu En a task three months ago, asking him to produce a special issue of Lin Yuedong's interview and photography. However, Gu En couldn't get an appointment after several attempts, so he dragged it on until now.

The mobile phone on the table vibrated, showing that Wang Yang had sent a message.Gu En glanced at it and ignored it, and continued to read the interview outline.

"Enen, look at your phone." Wang Yang lowered his voice and shouted from the air.

Gu En picked up the phone expressionlessly, and found that Wang Yang sent a news link.After he opened the news content, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and looked up meaningfully at Wang Yang in the distance, Wang Yang's complexion was not very good-looking.

The content of the news is: Today, a male body was found in a villa in a certain community in this city.The news was accompanied by a photo of the scene. The mosaic face of the corpse was covered with flaxen hair, and there was a mass of red mosaic on the left chest.

Gu En suddenly remembered the same kind he bumped into on Bar Street last night, who also had flaxen hair.

And that dream has come true!

The police and the media did not release specific details, because they did not want to cause excessive speculation and panic among the citizens.However, Gu En could tell from the wound on the left chest of the corpse that the other party had his heart taken out and died.

For human beings, there are countless ways to die, but for Gu En and his kind, the only way to die is to have their hearts taken out.When the heart is removed, all their unusual qualities will disappear, and even if they are dragged to an autopsy, nothing abnormal will be found.

Wang Yang sent another message:

[It was the hunter who did it! 】

Gu En thought for a while and replied:

[This is the fourth in July this year, and there were seven in total in July last year! 】

Wang Yang sent a skull emoji, and Gu En replied with a hug emoji.

【It's only the 12th today, er, I'm so scared...】

[Before the end of the month, stay at my house? 】

After a while, Wang Yang replied with a shy expression.

Gu En: ...

[Let's talk after get off work, you keep my bonus first. 】

Gu En put the phone back on the table, a little distracted, looked at the interview outline in front of him, and didn't move his eyes for a long while.Colleagues came to work one after another, and the empty hall finally had some human breath, which made Gu En feel less uneasy.

A vampire wants to gain a sense of security from humans.Gu En felt a little ashamed of his cowardice, but the fear of hunters had already penetrated into his bone marrow, and there was nothing he could do about it.Especially thinking of the same kind that was hunted and killed by hunters last night, there was only one step difference, otherwise the person who was hunted and killed was likely to be himself.

Every July, for vampires, it is shrouded in deep fear and uneasiness.No one knows if they will be the next one to be hunted down. What's more frightening is that they don't even know who the "hunter" is?

The only thing that is certain is that July is the season for hunters to hunt, and it is the nightmare of all vampires.

They usually have the same appearance as ordinary people, but they are immortal.The way they maintain the appearance of ordinary people is to hunt a human every ten days or half a month on average, suck the blood of the other person when they are excited, and then make the other person forget their own experience through hypnosis.

If they don't eat for more than half a month, their pupils will gradually turn red and their skin will become paler. If it exceeds 20 days, their emotions will become irritable and out of control. instinct to hunt any human being he might come into contact with.

Once their identities are revealed, God knows what awaits them.

They have to be a hunter in order to stay alive, but at the same time they are the prey of others.The difference is that they take the blood of their prey, while the hunter takes their lives.

At this time, Wang Yang sent another message:

[Or stop hunting before the end of the month? 】

Gu En did the math, there were still nearly 20 days before the end of the month, and he couldn't help but hesitate a bit.

17 days had passed between last night's hunting and the last one. His pupils were all red and he had to wear contact lenses to cover them up.If it is two more days, his skin may become completely pale, and he may even lose control of his emotions.If that's the case, things will be troublesome.

But... the opponent hiding in the dark is too subtle, and he may be targeted by the opponent if he hunts rashly.

After weighing for a long time, Gu En replied:

【try your best. 】

With complicated moods, he spent the whole morning in a daze, until after lunch, Gu En was a little out of sorts.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Wang Yang quietly said in the other's ear.

"It seems that you are more afraid." Gu En pierced the opponent mercilessly, and said again: "I just hate this feeling, and I don't know anything about the enemy."

Wang Yang's naturally smiling face, even when he was in a low mood, was much kinder and gentler than Gu En's.So even if the uneasiness in his heart was greater than that of Gu En, on the surface he looked like he was not afraid of death.

He drank the coffee in the cup in one breath, and said: "Don't think about it, life still has to live, work still has to be done, and bonuses still have to be taken." After finishing speaking, he threw the empty cup into the trash can, and pulled Gu En out of the coffee room When he came out, he bumped into the Li family who came to look for him.

"Do you still have time to drink coffee? I made an appointment with someone at two o'clock, and now it's 01:30." The Li family blocked the door of the coffee room and said.

Gu En didn't answer, and quickly walked to his desk to pick up the interview outline and recording pen that had been printed out, and then followed Li's family out of the magazine.

The phone vibrated, it was Wang Yang's message:

【Drink him. 】

Gu En looked at the Li family's house, and then couldn't help but sneezed, stimulated by the neutral perfume smell from the other party.The Li family gave him a blank look and stepped into the elevator.

Gu En replied:

【roll!】

Wang Yang replied to the message with a cute emoji:

[You call your own name again. 】

The elevator arrived at the basement floor, and the two of them got out of the elevator. A gust of cold wind came blowing towards them. Gu En frowned, feeling a little nervous for no reason. He didn't know whether it was because of the news in the morning or because of the upcoming interview subject——Lin Yuedong.

The cafe where we agreed to meet was only a 15-minute drive away from the magazine office. The Li family parked the car in the parking lot outside the cafe.It was already past the lunch break time, there was no one in the cafe, except for Li's family's car, there was only a black jeep lying there alone in the parking lot.

Gu En's eyes lingered on the black jeep for two seconds, and then turned to the direction of the cafe. Through the clean glass, he could see a 25-year-old young man sitting by the window.As if sensing Gu En's gaze, the young man turned his head to look at Gu En through the glass window, and then showed a somewhat provocative smile at Gu En.
