My Vampire Faints at Blood Chapter 48

Avoid Getting Water on New Tattoos

"So it's like that..." The blackmailed kidnapper responded with a sullen voice. With a glance at Wayne Loki, who had already begun to hold up the little orange cat and spin around in circles, he gave a decisive nod, "Okay, then, we don't want him."

"Insensitive human – you will regret it!" Obviously not anticipating the direction of the plot, the other party was speechless for a moment, then angrily put down a threat and hung up the phone violently.

Having seen a lot of things in the past few days, a blackmail call wasn't enough for Doctor Shang to take it seriously. After putting away the phone and finishing his breakfast in a few bites, he got up and patted Wayne Loki's shoulder, "Take good care of your brother at home and I'll bring you back blood sausage after work."

"I want to eat more blood sausage, I want white meat!" Wayne Loki, who was engrossed in playing with the cat, obviously didn't hear the phone call. Putting the little Taotie on his head, he expertly grabbed two bags of powdered milk and strode towards the backyard.

"So it looks like he's not that badly behaved..." Suddenly, a bit of an unfamiliar voice sounded behind him

Shang Haojia subconsciously turned around, and saw a middle-aged man with unfamiliar appearance, his sword-browed and starry-eyed appearance was the most traditionally handsome Chinese look standing there, "Mr – Xian Lin?"

"How do you know?" When he called out his identity, Xian Lin's eyes widened in surprise and he looked at him incredulously, "This is the first time I have appeared in front of you like this, and my voice is different from when I was a dragon, how did you still know it was me?"

Looking at the horns on the gold humanoid head and the large tail behind him, Doctor Shang pondered for a moment, but still had the decency to choose to look past the obvious, "Probably – I'm just gifted..."

"That must be the case. Only gifted people can sign a contract with our son, and I think you're good, giving them both a good start." Proud of his vision, Xian Lin narrowed his eyes and nodded, then pulled the two little ones out of his pocket and shoved them into his hands without a word, "In theory, the newly contracted person and the dragon have to spend three days together in order to achieve a fusion of qi. You're too busy at work to take time off, so ask them both to follow you to work."

"Take them with me – won't it really cause a panic?" Worriedly, Doctor Shang picked up the two little ones, almost anticipating a vibrant scene in the emergency room, and he couldn't help but raise his hand and rub his temples, "Do I need to give them some sort of disguise, like disguising them as pens or something..."

"No need. Unlike those who raise phoenixes and have to pretend to be sculptures, we dragons aren't that fussy." Xian Lin waved his hand unconcernedly and responded cheerfully, proudly patting his shoulder, "Dragons are born to mimic, one of them will mimic as a spark and the other will mimic as a lightning bolt. Once you head outside, absolutely no one will know you have two dragons on you!"

"And then everyone will know that I was sparking with lightning the whole way..." Just imagining that scenario, Doctor Shang couldn't help but feel that his head was as big as a bucket. He was about to think of something else when the two little ones, who were sleeping, woke up, rubbed their eyes with their tails, and stuck to his body without warning.

Xian Bei's ears were sharp, and after hearing most of the conversation between the two, he wrapped around Doctor Shang's wrist, and rubbed his dragon horns against the back of his hand coquettishly, "Don't worry, Brother Doctor, both of us are originally small, so our mimicry will not be that conspicuous..."

"Yes, yes – we are both very powerful, and we can protect Brother Doctor!" Although he woke up a few seconds later than his brother, Xian Bao immediately perked up and nodded in agreement, "And we also have a skill! Because we are rain dragons that can call the wind and rain, anyone who carries us around with them will also always be as cool as rain..."

"This is a good reason, I am convinced – come to work with your brother." Under the hot summer sun, even with Doctor Shang's tenacious will, he was deeply impressed by this perk. With a decisive nod, he accepted this new treatment of sparks with lightning along the way.

Despite his husky heritage, the werewolf butler was still a very reliable driver and had the man at the hospital in less than half an hour. Accompanied by the excited cheers of the two little ones along the way, Doctor Shang started his first shift with the portable air conditioners.

"Our walking get-out-of-jail-free card is back – How was your vacation, wasn't it great?" As soon as he walked into the department, he was greeted by the painful stares of his colleagues, which almost made Doctor Shang feel a bit vain.

Nodding vaguely, he took the white coat thrown by his colleagues and put it on neatly, "Was it that busy? I came back for an extra shift in the middle of my vacation..."

"It wasn't busy at all. We received two hundred registrations every day and also witnessed the recent assault incident, so we had to take time to help the family write a statement." The colleague patted his shoulder, but his expression suddenly took on a bit of mystery as he fervently squeezed his eyes at him.

"You don't even know what amazing thing you missed out on by taking your vacation – Have you ever seen a werewolf? We have seen one! Such big scary guys, no wonder they can hurt so many people at once. We all signed a confidentiality agreement, so this matter can only be passed around in our department and it's absolutely forbidden to say anything to anyone outside, so it's only because we're colleagues that we're reluctantly telling you."

"Even if you go out and say it, how many people will believe it? I can tell by the look on Xiao Shang's face that he definitely doesn't believe it. It's impossible for anyone to believe your nonsense without seeing it in person." The deputy director interjected and pulled up the photos on his phone, pulling Shang Haojia to the corner and surreptitiously handing it to him for a look. "Come on, we all talk about seeing is believing, let me show you the real thing – I secretly took this, I want to open your eyes, but do not tell others, alright?"

"Yes, yes, I will not say anything to anyone else." Feeling the small dragon in his pocket moving around, Doctor Shang nodded sheepishly. He pressed back the little guy who wanted to poke his head out to see the fun, and without hesitation, raised his hand and swore, "This is the secret of our department, I will definitely keep it strictly and never disclose it."

"Old Shang, aren't you surprised at all? This is a werewolf, not some genetically modified rabbit or new breed of mouse – they can really transform before your eyes!" Seeing that he didn't even react a little surprised, his colleague felt disappointed and shook his head discouragingly, "Aren't you afraid that some Frankenstein monster will show up like in Resident Evil VIII?"

"Is Resident Evil already at eight?" He was playing the first few when he was in college, but he didn't expect time to pass so quickly. Shang Haojia really marvelled before suddenly reacting, hastily standing up straight under the condemned gaze of his colleagues and raising one hand to solemnly change his tone, "No, I was just so surprised that I lost the proper reaction..."

The colleague then nodded in satisfaction, patted his shoulder, and pushed him out of the consultation room, "That's more like it – Okay, hurry up and get your medical records together. We haven't gathered our medical records for the past two days, we were saving them specifically to prepare for your return."

Being pushed out of the door, Shang Haojia instinctively took a few steps forward before suddenly coming back to his senses and turning around in dismay, "You didn't gather your medical records for two days – does the department even check them?!"

"Of course they do. The check is this afternoon, so you still have one morning to go." The deputy director nodded sincerely and patted his shoulder, his tone solemn and dignified, "Xiao Shang, good comrade..."

"This good comrade is going to go sort out the medical records now – you guys get busy, don't expect me to come down and help!"  It was only two days of leave and he was actually being ganged up on by this group of guys who had no sense of camaraderie. Feeling a strong sense of indignation, Doctor Shang left behind this group of ordinary humans who were excited after seeing a werewolf and resolutely turned around to go upstairs.

There were many kinds of patients in the emergency room. There were patients who were really critical; there were those whose conditions weren't really serious but only had severe symptoms; and there were also those who didn't even have severe symptoms but just didn't want to wait in line at the clinic. A mountain of handwritten medical records had accumulated on the desk, waiting to be entered.

With a glance at the height and thickness of the hill, based on his long and rich experience, Doctor Shang could see his heavy workload for the morning. Casually turning on his computer and putting the two small dragons aside in the pencil holder, he pulled the chart cart over and got down to business with full concentration.

Time always flies by when you are concentrating on your work. After finishing the cart of medical records, the sunlight outside was already quite blinding and the heat could be felt through the window.

Doctor Shang stretched his back and was about to feel for a piece of candy to feed the dragons, but found that only Xiao Xian Bei was left inside the pencil holder, "Wang Wang, where is your brother?"

"Someone down there is letting out energy fluctuations and said that they are looking for Brother Doctor, so Brother went down to see!" Xian Bei good-naturedly flew up to the human doctor's hand and coiled up, tilting his head in reply before straightening his neck again and adding, "They've made it to the stairs and will make it upstairs soon – it looks like it's someone called lemon tea..."

"Lemon tea?" A reasonable thought suddenly popped into his mind. Doctor Shang lightly tapped his pen on the desk, raised his eyebrows and looked at the door, and happened to see the half-grown teenager who had just stood in the doorway, "Don't say anything yet, let me ask – do you have a brother named Wayne Loki, and are you here to find him?"

"How did you know?!" The teenager took off his baseball cap and glared at him warily, then suddenly ripped off his jacket with one hand, revealing the prominent tattoo of a cross on his shoulder, "I'm Vita Lemoine Cha, the second youngest of the Leith family. I want you to let my brother go – I'm a gangster who smokes and drinks, are you afraid yet?!"

"Well..." Doctor Shang pondered politely for a moment, sat up slightly more upright, and tapped on the table to tell Xian Bao to fly back to his side, "let's not talk about being afraid or not for now – Did you know that it's best to keep the wound out of water for a day or two after getting a tattoo, and the same goes for your own sweat?"
