What It’s Like Being a Vampire

Xiang Kun got up early in the morning and made a table of breakfast for his parents.

Although the parents always muttered "why didn't you sleep more when you came back so late last night" after getting up, but the obvious happiness can be seen from the expressions.

Based on the statistics and improvements made by cooking a few meals for my parents last time, Xiang Kun adjusted to the tastes that the two elders preferred more and more. What?", "There's no need to have so many dishes, it's a bit wasteful", "It's rare to get back from vacation, so I need to rest more", "Is it because your mother's dishes are not delicious", "Just buy a couple of steamed buns downstairs", etc. .

Xiang Kun said that he had already eaten, but he still sat at the table and chatted with his parents.

He knew that although his current physical condition was not bad, and there was no problem that would directly threaten his life in a short period of time, judging from the mutated creatures he had come into contact with before, even if there were no external factors, as the mutation continued, he would inevitably There will be more and more problems.

In the future, I may not have much time to eat and chat with my parents like this.

Before the company closed down, his attention was always on work in those years. Even when he came back from the Spring Festival, he was so tired that he just wanted to take all the time to rest. As for spending time with his parents, he still had a lot of time in the future.

But in fact, there is really not that much time.

Even if he didn't mutate.

While chatting, Xiang Ma suddenly remembered something and asked, "Which friend were you with when you came back so late yesterday? Did I know him?"

Upon hearing this, Xiang Kun observed the subtle changes in his mother's expression and other perceptual information, based on his understanding of his mother and feedback on the cognitive model established by his mother, he immediately knew—— My sister-in-law must have "snitched" with my mother immediately.

"You don't know me, my friend's sister. Yesterday I went out with a bag, or brought something for my friend to her sister." Xiang Kun explained.

Xiang Ma asked with a smile: "My friend's sister? How old are you, where are you from, where do you work, and is she pretty?"

Xiang Kun smiled and said, "Mom, did my cousin contact you last night?"

"Hey, I just chatted a few words on WeChat." Xiang Ma didn't hide anything, and said, "She said that she met you in the coffee shop last night, and said that you were alone with a very beautiful young girl. The relationship seems to be going well."

Xiang Kun said: "Mom, don't think too much, she is many years younger than me, she is my friend's sister, an ordinary friend."

"Then does she have a boyfriend?" Xiang Mom asked.

"No……"

"Well, I see. Ordinary friends start with ordinary friends. You can do your best." Mom Xiang nodded with an expression of "I understand".

"Come on..." Xiang Kun couldn't laugh or cry.

"Then you came back so late last night, just to be with her all the time?" Xiang Ma said with an expression of "don't scare me".

When Xiang Kun went to the branch office to assist in the investigation last night, he called his family and told him that he was with friends and would go back later.

But after thinking about it, Xiang Kun still gave a general account of what happened last night: "Actually, I was supposed to be back after ten o'clock last night, but on the way to send my friend's sister back, I found someone following her, and then I So I helped her arrest the follower and called the police. I went to the branch to make notes and assist in the investigation until so late.

Last night, I was afraid that you were worried, so I followed you to the branch office. I couldn't sleep well, so I didn't tell you. "

He knew that in Zitong City, there are quite a lot of news channels for parents, and there are relatives in the family who work in the public security system. He and Lao Xia said that the matter last night was not big or small, and it was circulated internally. After opening, people who knew his parents would soon pass the news to their parents, so he simply "confessed" himself.

Of course, the situation last night described from his mouth is a lot of understatement. It didn't mention to deal with two people, nor did it mention that those two people had guys in their hands, and it didn't mention that before the police arrived, He took out the two murderers in 1v2.

Xiang Ma was very surprised and frightened when she heard it: "Fortunately, you found out, how could there be such a person, it's too bad..."

"My friend's younger sister is called Xia Libing. She works in the Third Court. There was a case to be forensic identification..." Xiang Kun gave the general situation of the case and asked his mother to divert her attention.

Xiang Ma nodded repeatedly when she heard this, but turned around and said: "That little Xia, the little girl works alone in Zaitong City, and she must have been quite frightened when she encountered such a thing, hey, maybe she didn't notice it last night. I can fall asleep. As a local, you are older than her, so you should visit her sometime today to confirm her condition. After all, your friend told you to help him take care of his sister, right? By the way, she is alone Erythrina is working, why not invite her to have a New Year's Eve dinner together at night. Even if you have to be on duty, you have to eat, and it's worth it after eating..."

Xiang Kun said with a smile: "Mom, although she rents a house to live by herself, she is not alone in Zaitong. Her third uncle's family is in Zaitong. Her third aunt is still the leader of the third hospital. Even if she is not on duty, she must Go to her third uncle's house for the New Year."

"Oh, that's it, then in short... you just need to find time to care about others more, come on! Okay, if you don't like to listen to come on, then use the Japanese sentence... Gan Tasuo?"

Dad Xiang, who hadn't interrupted much, couldn't help but said: "You pronounce it wrong, okay? You're not cheering, that's cursing! Come on, it's 'Salanghei', it's 'Salanghey', okay! You can watch it on your mobile phone." During those original sound series, you didn’t read the subtitles at all!”

...

Xiang Kun chatted with his parents at home, and didn't go out until after eight o'clock, planning to buy some ingredients and come back to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner.

Of course, my mother has bought a lot of ingredients in advance, and the refrigerator is almost full, but if he wants to cook according to his own ideas, there are still some ingredients and seasonings that need to be replenished.

And although Lao Xia said that she would prepare the ingredients when he "invited" him to eat, but considering that Lao Xia was still on duty, there was probably no way to buy ingredients during normal time, so he wanted to help her prepare some in advance.

Originally, he was a little worried that today is the New Year's Eve, whether there is nothing in the supermarket or vegetable market. After all, let alone his thirties, when he was at home, he never bought vegetables.

But to his surprise, there are more vegetables, fruits, and fresh goods in the supermarket than usual. Of course, there are more customers shopping, and the unit price is higher.

Xiang Kun pushed the trolley, purchased according to the plan, and after buying almost all the ingredients he needed, he walked to the area where the tableware was sold.

According to the recipe he planned for the evening, there are a few dishes that need to be served in larger pots, but the ones at home are not suitable, either too deep or too small, so he has to buy some suitable tableware.

However, after holding up a stainless steel soup basin, Xiang Kun couldn't help but feel its material, weight and other various data.

While shopping just now, in fact, he was also thinking about it, or about the new ability "developed" by the little chubby girl that he got on the train back before - using multiple "super sensory connection" items , Create a special magnetic field environment suitable for him to play and use.

He has a hunch that when he mutates and evolves to a certain level in the future, what may determine his upper limit of ability and help him break through the upper limit of his ability is the number of various "supersensory connections" and "emotional injection" items he associates.

Of course, the premise is that his brain power, calculation ability, and thinking ability can keep up by then, otherwise, no matter how many "supersensory connection" items there are, he will not be able to use them at the same time.

However, it is still necessary to start building as many "supersensory connection" items as possible now.

After so many months, the establishment of so many "supersensory connection" items, and so many blood-drinking mutations, Xiang Kun naturally has a lot of experience in summarizing how to establish a "supersensory connection" more efficiently.

For the same type of items, after repeated establishment of "supersensory connection", the time for establishing connection will be reduced to a certain extent.

For example, he is now the fastest at establishing a "supersensory connection" with three things: one-yuan coins, A4 paper, and ballpoint pens, but this is not simply "practice makes perfect".

In the process of establishing a "supersensory connection", the key is whether to have a deeper understanding of those items and whether to have more information.

Such as size, size, material, origin, composition, characteristics, etc., so if he has more understanding and inquiries about an item in advance, it will be easier to successfully establish a "supersensory connection".

But so far, with his ability, he can only "supersensory contact" with simple objects of a relatively single nature, not even a little compound, not even clothes, shoes, let alone mobile phones, computers, etc. planted.

Now the most efficient way to establish a "supersensory connection" is the tungsten steel ball on the ballpoint pen. Now it takes less than a minute to establish a "supersensory connection" with a ball.

Establishing a "supersensory connection" with a coin, a piece of paper, a piece of wood, or a ball is no different in the "supersensory object" magnetic field system "developed" by the little fat girl, and they all just represent a super sensory unit.

Therefore, balls that are inconspicuous, low in cost, not easy to damage, and can quickly establish a "supersensory connection" are naturally the best basic supersensory unit composition.

At first, the tungsten steel balls he got were straight from cheap pens. But this will be troublesome, and secondly, it will cost more.

So when he started to establish a large number of "super sensory connections", he bought 10,000 0.5mm tungsten steel balls from the Internet.

When this kind of tungsten steel ball is bought in large quantities, it is very cheap, only a few cents each, which is quite cost-effective.

But this time when I came back, I only brought dozens of them, and all of them had already established a "super power connection".

But although there are no tungsten steel balls around him that have not established a "supersensory connection", Xiang Kun has not given up his plan to establish as many "supersensory connection" items as possible.

In addition to coins and paper, there are actually many things you can try to establish a "supersensory connection".

For example, this kind of stainless steel basin with relatively uniform material.

This kind of stainless steel used on tableware is generally 304 steel. Xiang Kun had a certain understanding of this kind of steel before and found a lot of information, so it was easier to "get started". Of course, the same 304 steel, under different standards, the composition will be slightly different, the content of C and Ni will be slightly different, etc., but generally the characteristics will not change much, and it can still be done as soon as possible.” super sensory connection".

Holding the steel basin in his hand, Xiang Kun was playing with its thickness, size, weight and craftsmanship, and judging which steel factory its material might come from.

In addition to staring at it long enough and knowing enough details, Xiang Kun also recently discovered a way to speed up the "super sensory connection", which is to understand the cognitive information representing the item in the "super sensory state", and understand those The more you understand the part of the cognitive information that corresponds to the characteristics of the item in reality, the faster you can establish a "super sensory state".

And this increase in efficiency is permanent. It's as if he has now increased the time for establishing a connection to less than 5 minutes by constantly entering the "super-sensory state" and comparing the characteristics of reality. Then not only this steel basin, but also the same steel basin in the future, he can do 5 minutes. Establish a "super sensory connection" within minutes.

...

"Captain, in Area C, on the side of the tableware shelf, the stainless steel tableware, there is a person who seems a little strange. The person is holding a steel basin, staring at it for a while, closing his eyes for a while, with a look of intoxication... It's almost two Ten minutes."

When Xiang Kun was on a whim and immersed himself in establishing a supersensory connection with the stainless steel basin, his weirdness caught the attention of the security guards patrolling the supermarket, who reported it to the security captain in the monitoring room through the walkie-talkie.

Xiang Kun, who had just come out of the "super sensory state" again, also keenly caught the words of the security guard, and suddenly realized that he had forgotten the time, stayed here for too long, and behaved too weirdly.

So he put the stainless steel basin into the trolley - there were already two identical steel basins there, both of which he had just established a "supersensory connection".

Seeing Xiang Kun pushing the trolley and continuing to go shopping, the security guard watched from a distance for a while, and after letting the people in the monitoring room pay attention, he stopped staring at him and continued to other areas Patrol.

Xiang Kun had almost finished his selection, so he was ready to pay the bill.

However, he was pushing the trolley to the cashier area when he suddenly sensed some familiar information, so he looked back and saw a tall figure pushing the trolley in the fresh food area, dressed in sports style, With LeBron 17 feet, high ponytail, and long legs, whoever it is is not Xia Libing.

Why did she come to buy food at this time?

If it was someone else he knew, even a relative, Xiang Kun might not take the initiative to say hello, but Lao Xia was naturally different.

He just wanted to test whether Lao Xia suddenly "waked up" in his dream yesterday, did he realize or perceive something?

So Xiang Kun changed the direction of the cart and headed towards the fresh food area again.

However, she didn't notice Xiang Kun until she got to Lao Xia's side. This didn't match her usual habit of paying close attention to her surroundings and being extremely vigilant. What's more, what happened just last night, Lao Xia should be more Be vigilant.

Xiang Kun followed Lao Xia's eyes and found that she was carefully choosing a pork knuckle, her hand was hovering over several big pork knuckles, as if hesitating which one to take.

"The best is with me, you don't need to take it." Xiang Kun said out loud.

Xia Libing swallowed her saliva, turned her head to look at him, then moved her eyes down to his trolley, and quickly locked on the ingredients that had been packed in various plastic bags.
