Pierre's face then appears on the projector, The other guests turn Pierre, he escapes and is stopped by a man in a white cape who tells him to go to his father's office where more mysteries await him. Pierre goes to his father' office and confronts him, he explains that the girl he saw is his protégée, she's an orphan and he was a friend of her family and that she has also got an unknown blood condition that any wounds will heal right away, she is also believed to be a goddess by certain fanatics. What he is saying is that she is a vampire. The building they are working in is to find someone with the same condition so that they can find a cure. The reason for the hoods and masks are that to hide human faces from her, so that she does not know she is different. They are hiding her from a group of vampires.
The Vampire in the white cape takes the woman and tells Pierre to protect her.
