My Vampire System novel Chapter 157

Chapter 157 Questioning

It was late in the afternoon, and the sun was still shining outside. However, soon it would be dinner time for most of the students. While some were outside having dinner with their friends, others chose to have a meal at the school canteen. It was in the canteen that Vorden was at this moment.

He had already done what he needed to do, to complete his plan. After gathering some information from the other students, it had led him to the canteen. And now all he needed to do was head back to Peter.

Although Quinn said it was unlikely he would get hungry within one day after feeding, there was still a possibility that something could happen today. Which meant Vorden would have to make sure his backup plan was ready each and every day.

After grabbing a snack for himself to eat from the canteen, he headed back up to the dorm room to check on the others. As he opened the door though, he was surprised to see Layla standing in the corner of the room while having her bow pointed at Peter.

Peter himself had both of his hands up and was as far away from Layla as possible inside the little room.

"Whoa, what is going on here?" Vorden asked. _{freeweɓnovel.cѳm}

But before either of the two could say anything, a message was received on Vorden’s watch.

"Vorden Blade you are to head to Nathan’s office immediately. Judging by your location, you should be able to reach us in five minutes. If you are not here, then prepare to face the consequences."

"What is this about?" Vorden said. "You heard the message I’ve got to go. And you two, stop fighting and make up, we have enough problems as it is."

"No, wait!" Layla cried, but the door had already shut, and Vorden was rushing off to the office.

"I’m sorry, Peter," Layla said. "Let’s just keep it like this for now. I’ll stay by the door, and if anything happens, I’ll leave first."

"Well, why don’t you let me head over to the fridge and see if I can try to make the hunger go away," Peter asked.

Layla took a deep breath before replying.

"Fine." Using her telepathic ability, she opened the fridge door and pulled out a piece of meat for Peter. Making sure Peter kept his hands up while she was doing this. After seeing what he was cable of and what happened to Earl. She wasn’t taking any chances.

When Peter asked if he could use his hands to eat, Layla allowed it, but she kept her arrow slightly drawn and facing Peter the whole time.

’Quinn, where the hell are you?’ Layla thought

Inside the office, Quinn did as asked and sat down in the seat, opposite the lady. He was still unsure exactly why they had called him here.

"Now Quinn, I’m sure you’re thinking why we called you here, Right?" Nathan said. "Well, as you may know, there was a death yesterday, and we’re trying to find out who’s responsible."

"Wait you’re saying it wasn’t a beast?" Quinn said, trying to act surprised.

"Well, it might be, who knows, all we do know is there have been quite a few cases like this before, do you remember how we called you into questioning a while ago. Well back then we didn’t ask you many questions because a level one couldn’t possibly be able to kill higher levels. So after asking whether you did it or not, we let you go.

"However, death seems to be following you around lately, and we need to know if its bad luck, or maybe it’s someone with bad luck that is following you around. So please if you could touch the pretty ladies hand, we can begin the questioning"

Quinn did as asked, and the two touched hands, at first, there was no reaction as the woman had yet to activate her ability.

All Quinn could hope for now was that they would ask him simple questions like last time. If they just asked him if he was the one responsible for Earl’s death, then he could answer truthfully. It seemed like he had gotten away with it the last time due to him only being a level one. They never really considered him a suspect in the first place.
