Chapter 220: Reunion of Siblings and

Early morning, Frostfall Port docks.

With only four minutes left before the official start of work, Yun Mu and Dunn, bringing Lixia along, hurried to the construction site.

They had arrived by Steam Taxi, but chose to get off early halfway there, finishing the remaining distance on foot.

This was, of course, not because Yun Mu and the others had a penchant for walking; it was simply that arriving at the site all the way by taxi would be extremely conspicuous.

Though it sounds a bit harsh to say, the vast majority of workers at the docks are poor wretches who simply have no money to ride a Steam Taxi.

Furthermore, for a trivial matter like going to work, it really isn't worth it.

Naturally, there was also the reason that Dunn needed to arrange today's plan for the two of them and needed to avoid that taxi driver.

As for the plan Dunn arranged, Yun Mu can summarize it simply; the general meaning is this.

Proceed as usual, adapt to circumstances.

Just continue to pretend to be ordinary dock workers and work; as long as Lixia, being a Bloodline, appears at the docks, she will definitely be noticed by people.

When that time comes, that group of people within the Scarlet Relief Society who are related to the Scarlet will certainly come to make contact with Lixia.

What Yun Mu and Dunn need to do is wait for that moment.

However, no matter how you put it, Lixia is someone who has been missing for two days, so returning to the construction site so suddenly is definitely a bit improper.

Therefore, Dunn still left some other arrangements: "Hello, excuse me, are you Mr. Kamaier?"

Frostfall Port, inside the dock construction site, with five minutes left before the official start of work, two Guards wearing Police Guard Uniforms, led by the female attendant who handled the paperwork for them when Yun Mu and Dunn joined the Scarlet Relief Society, found Kamaier, who was preparing to work, and asked.

"I, I am, may I ask what is the matter?"

Being approached by Guards early in the morning, Kamaier could not help but feel a bit nervous.

"Could it be that there is a lead on my younger sister!?" Suddenly, he thought of something and asked with a somewhat agitated expression.

Regarding Lixia's disappearance, he had also gone to the Guard Hall to report the case, yet in this era without surveillance, finding a missing person is simply too difficult.

Plus, with people going missing in the city almost every day, the Guard Hall cannot possibly use all its manpower on such things.

Therefore, if nothing unexpected happens, this case will become one of the many reports piled up in the Guard Hall.

The facts were indeed so. At the time, the Guard who received the report just perfunctorily told him that the Guard Hall would dispatch Guards to search for his sister's whereabouts and told him to patiently go home and wait.

Patiently wait, my foot! Seeing the other party's attitude, Kamaier had already stopped counting on the Guard Hall to be able to do anything, yet today they actually sent someone over!? He has a feeling of unreality; he couldn't be dreaming, could he?

"It's not just a lead; in fact, we have already brought Ms. Lixia over." After hearing Kamaier's inquiry, one of the Guards said with a straight face and a calm tone.

The other Guard nodded and looked at Kamaier: "We are taking you to see her right now."

"Al, already found?" Kamaier's pupils trembled, and his voice was shaking as he spoke.

Oh no, he couldn't really be dreaming, could he? Is the efficiency of the Guard Hall this high?

"Um, may I ask if you know why my sister went missing?"

Kamaier followed behind the two Guards, walking toward the outer perimeter of the construction site.

At this moment, his mood was very agitated, and at the same time, he really wanted to know why his sister had gone missing.

"Because of the local gang." The previously straight-faced Guard said without looking back.

Because the other party was walking in front, Kamaier could not see his expression.

"Local gang?" Hearing the Guard's answer, Kamaier could not help but feel his heart skip a beat; he hurriedly pressed: "Is my sister alright!?"

"Rest assured, because of the timely rescue, Ms. Lixia did not suffer, um... any distressing treatment."

"Phew, that's good." Hearing the Guard's answer, Kamaier clearly let out a sigh of relief.

Just at this moment, the other Guard walking in front turned around, patted his shoulder, and pointed his finger forward: "Alright, your sister is right there; go see her."

Looking in the direction the other party's finger was pointing, Kamaier saw his own sister's familiar back at a glance.

At this time, Lixia was chatting casually with Yun Mu and Dunn when she suddenly heard a familiar voice calling her name from behind.

She was briefly stunned for a moment, then immediately turned around: "Big Brother!"

"Lixia... wait, who are you?"

Kamaier was halfway through his sentence when, after Lixia turned around and he saw her scarlet pupils, his brain short-circuited for a moment.

"Is your only impression of your precious sister the color of her eyes!?" Looking at his appearance, Lixia, who had been quite moved, said with some indignation.

"Hehe, because of some special reasons, your sister's appearance has undergone some slight changes." Dunn chuckled twice at this time and explained to Kamaier.

"You are..."

Dunn was using Stanny's image at this time, so Kamaier recognized at a glance that he was the young man who had come to talk to him yesterday.

"Do you still remember what I said? I will help you."

Dunn leaned close to Kamaier's side, patted his shoulder with his hand, and whispered in his ear.

"This..."

Although he didn't know how Dunn managed it, the facts were laid out before him, along with the testimony of those two Guards. "So, so, you really are Lixia?" Kamaier looked incredulously at the blonde Young Girl in front of him, whose appearance was very similar to the sister in his memory, but who also had many differences.

"My sister wasn't this pretty before; she had freckles on her face, her hair color was as dull as mine, and her skin wasn't this white, just like those young ladies from wealthy families..."

He stammered as he spoke of the differences in appearance between the Young Girl in front of him and the sister in his memory.

"Have I changed that much?" Listening to Kamaier's description, Lixia, who hadn't looked in a mirror since becoming a Bloodline, looked somewhat surprised.

"Eh, did Ms. Lixia not look like this before?" Yun Mu was also a bit surprised at this time.

No wonder she had felt earlier that Ms. Lixia's appearance didn't look like a worker at the docks; so, after becoming a Bloodline, one's appearance will change? Thinking about it carefully, in the various works of art from her past life, there were indeed no ugly characters among high-level vampires.

Looking at it this way, it seems quite reasonable that one would become better-looking after becoming a Bloodline?

Strange, when she became a Bloodline back then, why didn't any other parts change besides her eyes?

It couldn't be that she was already very good-looking, so she wouldn't become even better-looking after becoming a Bloodline!

*Ahem*, although there is a bit of narcissism in it, Yun Mu thinks her reasoning shouldn't have any problems.

Otherwise, how else to explain the fact that Ms. Lixia's appearance changed after becoming a Bloodline!

Hmm, it must be like this, no doubt. "Everyone, I am very sorry to interrupt your reunion, but I would like to say that work at the docks has already begun."

At this moment, the female attendant who had found Kamaier with two Guards arrived beside the four of them and spoke to the group.

"Reunion with loved ones is indeed a matter worth celebrating, but it shouldn't be here." She paused, then suddenly changed the subject: "I can grant you two a one-day leave; whatever you want to say, take today to say it."

"That wouldn't be very good," Kamaier said, feeling somewhat conflicted, looking every bit the honest man.

And just at this moment, Dunn suddenly raised his hand: "Can the two of us also take a day off?"

"You two have only worked for one day, right? You want to take leave too?" Hearing Dunn's request, the female attendant subconsciously frowned.

"Ahem, please cooperate with us." Seeing this, Dunn gave a light cough, took a Guard identification out from his bosom, and opened it in front of her.

"Don't make a scene."

Seeing the look of surprise on her face, Dunn put the Guard identification away.

"I... I understand." After a moment of silence, the female attendant nodded: "I won't tell anyone about this matter."

"Very good." Dunn was very satisfied: "Talking to smart people is just convenient."

"Hmph." As if throwing a small tantrum, the female attendant gave a dissatisfied huff: "I'm going to arrange the leave; I wish you a pleasant holiday."

After she finished speaking, she turned and walked toward the interior of the port terminal.

"Catch!"

At this moment, Dunn took a Gold Frost Coin from his pocket, flicked his thumb with a slight force, and the brilliant golden coin flew toward the female attendant.

"Oh~"

Just as she turned around, the slightly cool Gold Frost Coin landed on the female attendant's chest, being steadily supported by the two Mountain Ranges.

"Remember to keep it a secret~" Dunn smiled slightly and held his index finger to his lips.

"Honestly, there are people watching around here~" Having received the benefit, the dissatisfaction on the female attendant's face vanished completely; she took the Gold Frost Coin from her chest with a charming movement, then walked away happily.

"What happened to working as usual and acting according to circumstances?"

After the female attendant left, Yun Mu looked at Dunn, feeling very puzzled.

This guy, he had only just finished talking about the plan, and now he had thrown everything he said to the back of his mind, hadn't he?

If Lixia took leave and wasn't at the Frostfall Port terminal construction site, how could she act as bait? Ahem, in short, isn't this completely different from what was discussed earlier?

"Don't be anxious, someone will come looking for us soon." Dunn saw her thoughts and revealed a mysterious expression on his face.

"Why?" Seeing his confident look, Yun Mu felt somewhat confused.

"How do you think the Scarlet Relief Society gets information about the port terminal?" Dunn did not answer her question but asked her instead.

"Hmm..." Hearing Dunn's question, Yun Mu lowered her head and pondered for a moment: "Is it because they have their people in the port terminal? Wait, I know what you mean!"

Kamaier had previously been led out of the core area of the terminal construction site by two Guards, and during this process, it must have attracted the attention of the vast majority of workers.

In a place where if someone accidentally took a leak it could spread across the entire site, this matter would definitely be known to the vast majority of workers.

Added to that was the matter of Kamaier reuniting with his sister just now; workers who saw this scene would chat about it when they went back, which would result in almost everyone knowing that Kamaier's missing sister had returned.

Lixia's pair of Scarlet pupils are quite conspicuous; it probably won't take long for news of her to be passed to the inside of the Scarlet Relief Society.

Bloodline and ordinary people infected by the Scarlet Curse are two completely different concepts; as long as her and Dunn's deduction is correct, someone will come looking for them soon.

"That attendant lady could also be a person from the Scarlet Relief Society, right? Is there no problem with showing her the Guard identification?" Yun Mu thought of something and asked Dunn.

"No problem, just treat it as a probe." Dunn smiled indifferently: "The Scarlet Relief Society's actions are high-profile; it's clear they want us to investigate. Even if they treat us as people from the Guard Hall, they will still come looking for us."

"The detailed process..." He looked at Kamaier, who looked blank and had no idea what they were talking about, then looked at Lixia: "Let Miss Lixia explain it to Mr. Kamaier."

"I, along with Miss Yun, will temporarily disappear from your sight."

"There is no need for that." Yun Mu could roughly guess Dunn's thoughts, and she said: "I have a special disguise ability; I can stay by Miss Lixia and Mr. Kamaier's side, just in case."

"Hmm... that works too." Without asking what her disguise ability was, Dunn pondered for a moment and nodded: "Then their safety is left to you; I will secretly follow behind you and strike at the critical moment."

"During this time, you can do whatever you want; feel free to arrange it."

As soon as the words fell, Dunn turned and disappeared into thin air from everyone's sight.

Such terrifying concealment ability; even Blood Perception cannot detect a single trace!

Yun Mu looked at the spot where Dunn had disappeared, feeling very surprised in her heart.

Even for a Shadow Guard, when they Escape into Shadow, she could still perceive some traces to a greater or lesser extent.

However, Dunn... if he hadn't said he would secretly follow behind them, Yun Mu would never have guessed that he was hiding right beside her!

"Phew, let's find a place with no one around."

After exhaling slightly, Yun Mu turned to look at Kamaier and Lixia and said.

"O-okay."

Recovering from the shock of Dunn's disappearance, Lixia and Kamaier hurriedly nodded.

The three of them came to a deserted alley nearby.

【Cat Transformation】

This was a trait granted to her by 【Mother of All Cats Eve】 through a dream after the game Dungeon ended.

It could enable her body to transform between human form and a cat.

Although she had experienced the specific feeling once in the dream before, this was the first time using this skill in reality.

Thinking of this, Yun Mu suddenly became a little nervous.

"Meow~"

Unable to suppress a cat's meow from her mouth, under the shocked expressions of Lixia and Kamaier, Yun Mu's body gradually shrank, and soon she transformed into a small black cat with soft fur.
