I had seen how biological research institutes captured vampires and zombies for study—how they dissected us, observing our bodies regenerate organs time after time... They even tried extracting immortality genes from us.
Staring blankly at Martin, I thought he was just a scientist focused on research.
I never imagined he worked at a city research institute studying vampires and zombies!
A wave of doubt washed over me. Panic set in as suspicion arose—was he approaching me for ulterior motives?
If it wasn't for some hidden agenda, then having researched these creatures meant he likely knew about our habits and he could easily discover who I really was!
I couldn't help but feel anxious and asked him what exactly he studied.
"It's not what you think," Martin said, his gaze fixed on me with a hint of mockery—as if sensing that my thoughts were filled with terrifying notions.
He explained that he wasn't professionally involved in this field. It was merely a personal interest of his because he found such creatures fascinating—especially vampires. He had heard they were beautiful and wished to meet one in real life someday.
