Chapter 126 – Not Shown
At 2:00 PM, Xiang Kun had scheduled a virtual meet-up with “Kasumi of August”.
The woman in the blue dress had been inside the “Long Time No See” café for 13 minutes.
Xiang Kun seemed fully concentrated on a claw game machine, but in reality, he was collecting auditory and olfactory information from his surroundings.
Although the scent information leaking from the café was limited due to distance and the glass doors, virtually all customers had already been “observed” by him before they entered the café, and he had set up basic profiles for them in his mind.
However, up until now, he had failed to find any target suspicious enough to warrant further examination.
Of course, Xiang Kun wouldn’t step into the “Long Time No See” café.
As soon as the meeting location was chosen, he would never go to that café again. Right from the start, he had no intention of showing his face to meet the other party.
From the reflection in a metal plate, Xiang Kun saw the woman in the blue dress casually flipping through her phone while sipping on one of two beverages. She seemed like a perfectly ordinary city girl.
Yet that was sufficient confirmation for Xiang Kun that this woman wasn’t a vampire. Probably, she didn’t have deep ties with the vampire behind “Kasumi of August.” Otherwise, if she was impersonating Kasumi, she would’ve been told about the precautions – not to casually eat or drink.
Xiang Kun did not linger in the claw game shop for long. After all, very few people stay for an extended period, especially when he hadn’t even won any plushies on purpose.
At 2:30, he left the claw game shop and wandered over to a milk tea shop diagonally across. He then carefully observed the “Long Time No See” café through the rear view mirror of an electric bike parked on the edge of the road.
People came and went out of the café, meanwhile passersby glanced at the woman in blue through the large glass windows, but it seemed like nothing more than a subconscious attraction to the beautiful woman. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
Buzz—–
Xiang Kun’s phone suddenly vibrated. His immediate reaction was another spam call?
Now that he was unemployed, very few people called him directly. Most communicated through WeChat first unless it was an emergency that he didn’t respond on WeChat.
Looking down, he found that the caller was his Mom.
If it were someone else, he might dismiss the call and call back later. But fearing that it could be an urgency, he picked it up immediately.
“Kun, are you at work?”
“Yeah, I’m working.” while responding, Xiang Kun kept his gaze on the rear-view mirror of the electric bike, observing what happened inside the café and the nearby pedestrians. Judging by the tone, it didn’t sound like an emergency.
