"Cozier has come to Barton to represent the Feast and prepare to do something at Barton. Linda looked at Zack, "I'm just a subordinate, and Kozil is a partner of the Demon Feast, you can see the difference." ”

Zach nodded, the subordinate is just here to scout and collect intelligence, and the partner is here to do business, "Since you have said it all here, then I have to ask, the magic banquet plans to be in Barton...... Zach raised his eyebrows and smiled, "What is Koziel going to do in Barton?"

"I'm just a servant in captivity. Linda didn't answer directly, but reaffirmed her identity on one side, "My work has been done, and I don't know what will happen in the future." She pursed her lips and added, "That's why I dare to come to you." ”

"Your job. Zach smiled and shook his glass, "Don't tell me your job is to be in a relationship with Cliff. ”

Cliff's hand froze as he flipped through the book.

"So to speak. Linda was blunt, "There's no easier way to learn about Barton than by finding a local alien." Linda looked back at Cliff, "I should have been lucky to have met Cliff, from whom I learned all about Patton's alien race, and met them all at the wedding. Magic Feast, at least Kozil is satisfied with the report I handed in. In addition, he is also in favor of pressing the information about you for the time being, whether there is any other reason for him to do so, it is not for me, a subordinate, to guess. ”

"So you dare to come to Grande to see me because your work is done, and I can't change the future situation even if I do anything to you?" Zach looked at Linda across from him to confirm the facts.

"Yes. "Admit it.

"Actually, you don't have to be so cautious. Zach smiled and raised his glass, "Your bridesmaid is Riley, I guess you're at least friends, then you should know." I wasn't going to do anything to you aliens. ”

"Friend. Linda thought for a moment, "Well, she's lucky, she met Madison, and Madison talks a lot......" she looked at Zach, emphasizing. "Madison has a lot to say. ”

Zach pursed his lips, not wanting to delve into it for a moment.

"And then I learned about you from Madison, and learned the truth about the so-called Lord Patton, Alpha and Grande, and vampires and werewolves living together. Linda used a surprised tone, "I naturally know it from Cliff, so the two of us are aliens who both know the truth about Barton, and occasionally discuss the rules of survival with each other, so we naturally need to be closer." ”

Zach raised an eyebrow, "The rules of survival?"

"Fallen Angels, Demons, and Witchers of the Church of the Holy Son. Grande Alpha and the vampires, and the wizard hunters on Sbella's side. Linda shook her head, "This city basically subverts the common sense of survival of any alien race. ”

"Oh, indeed. Zach laughed, and Barton was credited with becoming like this, "Did you discuss anything?"

"Don't go near the demons and keep a good relationship with Sbella. Curry favor with Grande. "It's still ...... Direct.

Zach was satisfied, "Why?"

"I don't know what Riley thinks. But I, avoiding the fallen angels is a requirement of the Demon Feast, and I don't want to expose Taylor as a subordinate of the Demon Feast yet, so that the demons in the west have an opinion on the Demon Feast. Sibella. She paused, "I don't have much affection for witchcraft beliefs, probably because I've lived too many life cycles in the Demon Feast. I don't care much about things outside of the Lord's faith, so I don't want to get involved in their affairs. Last Grande, you, your way of doing things confuses me. ”

She looked at Zach, "I don't understand what you're doing at Barton for. You have sinned against Papa Midnight. and the fallen angels, but let your friend, the human mayor Anthony, run the city. Then occasionally help the fallen angels, occasionally help Sbella, and occasionally offend together. More time is wasted playing civic games with humans, I don't understand. She concluded, "Because I don't understand and need to be cautious, so, please Grande." ”

Zach smiled, "I'm a little curious if the other aliens in Barton think the same way." I didn't see an alien invited to your wedding. ”

This question made Linda frown, and after thinking for a while, "It's not that I didn't invite, but they left." She shook her head, "At first, I asked Cliff if he would invite Grande to the wedding, and he said he wouldn't. Gave Zach an unintentionally offensive look.

Zach waved his hand to show that he didn't mind.

"Knowing that Grande won't show up, I don't need to think about whether Grande's secret will be revealed, so I made an invitation to those aliens who came to Barton at the beginning of the year. But when they learned that I was going to settle in Barton, they all seemed to understand one thing, that the feast was coming. ”

Zack had a clear look on his face, the alien race at the bottom was reluctant to get involved in the struggle, in their cognition, Barton was the territory of Alpha, and the demon wizard was probably not in their consideration. But the Demon Feast is coming, representing a territorial struggle. It seems that there will be new rumors in the Federation beyond Patton - in Patton, Alpha will be at war with the Demon Feast.

"Oh yes. As if it were just a real passing, Linda casually crossed the topic in a certain direction, "Since you asked about the aliens who left, I think I still need to explain about James." ”

Here it comes.

Zach raised an eyebrow and used a curious expression, "James?

Linda's expression was very relaxed, but Cliff, who was sitting at the workbench behind her, tensed up, and the movement of turning the book was significantly faster, and the pages of the book were rattling, and Zach pretended not to notice.

"Don't you care that James is the one who accompanied me to the altar?" Linda's expression was natural, normal confusion.

"Do I need to care about anything?" Zach was not prepared to give any information, giving the other party a chance to take the initiative.

Linda's expression was still natural, "Oh, forget it, he probably explained it himself." "Clever, I actually used the same response as Zack," after the wedding, we haven't been in touch, and I want to personally thank him for the set of porcelain, which looks very valuable. ”

There was a moment of silence in the office.

So James didn't communicate with Linda after the wedding, and Linda didn't know if James had explained to Zach why they knew each other according to her arrangement. Because not sure. This topic cannot go on.

Zach, who was silent, thought quickly, and he decided, "I do have some doubts when you mention that." Zach switched directions, bypassing James and cutting in from the military. "You just said that Taylor's military background is controlled by the Demon Banquet......"

Linda quickly turned her head, not knowing what expression flashed on her face, "Cliff, can you be quiet? I'm talking to someone else!"

Cliff, who was quickly turning the pages of the book, stiffened again, closed the book with a stumbling voice, and did not make any movement.

Linda turned her head and gave Zach a helpless look, "You saw that at the wedding, too." We don't really have any emotional foundation, it's just a cycle of ...... for the inheritors."

No, no, Zach wasn't going to let Linda change the conversation like that, he waved his hand, "Taylor's military background ......"

"It's nothing to do with Lance. Taylor interrupted directly, and it seemed that she had already made a decision just as she turned her head—"I didn't know James before coming to Barton. Now that the decision has been made, the next words are smooth. Clearly, she had a good plan. "If this is your doubt, I can tell you as an alien to the Demon Feast that I don't know anything about the Demon Feast taking control of General Lance. ”

After all, she still left a little room for herself, and she pouted, "But I'm just a subordinate of the Demon Banquet." I also have something I don't know, and you can completely disbelieve it. ”

Remember what James said to Zack, he and Linda are neighbors, neighbors! So this room sounds ridiculous to Zack!

Of course. Zach didn't show anything unusual, "That's really a loss for the Demon Banquet, General Lance is the most famous general in the Federation right now, isn't the Demon Banquet interested in such people?"

"How do I know. Linda turned her gaze away, "Probably because Moyan thinks that he controls the internal audit department (Taylor's military background, mentioned earlier, equivalent to a bailiff among the police), that is, he controls the military." ”

Zach nodded and smiled, "That's right, the military's legal system is different from the outside, and the military internal audit is the only institution that can restrain them." This is also very good, although I have not been a member of the Secret Alliance for more than half a century, and I have no way of knowing the information of the Demon Banquet, but I am also happy to know that the most famous general in the human race is not a puppet of the Demon Banquet. ”

Remember what James said? His father, General Lance, was the puppet of the Demon Feast!

Linda's expression didn't change at all, as if she just responded unintentionally, "Yes." ”

"Huh. Zach laughed, "I'm relieved about James, and from the time he got to Barton, I'm trying to tell him that aliens are part of society and need to be treated equally. I was glad to hear him talk about taking care of your life as a foreigner from the west. "Now that the lie has been forced, it is natural to follow it and see where the lie can go.

"Take care of it?" Linda actually laughed and mocked, "He's spying on it." Since he found me, even though I am also from the west, he has taken special 'care' of me. He asked me endlessly about the details of life in the West, his hometown, as if he wouldn't stop without telling him how many humans I had eaten. ”

See, lies can go far, as long as the liar is well planned.

"Oh?" Zach laughed, "I can imagine that you know the Great Dane down there, the Shapeshifter, who almost ate him when he first came to Barton." ”

Linda's expression was momentarily surprised, it wasn't fake, it seemed that she didn't know that there was this, but immediately, "It's best to be eaten, and I don't have to let a guy who has only known me for a long time accompany me to the altar, my life this time, maybe this time." "'Maybe'?" Cliff stiffened again, ignoring it.

When Zach was still trying to push further into the lie that could not be unplugged, he suddenly frowned, stood up, and turned to open the curtains. An unfamiliar car sprinted into Grande's backyard, and after a screeching sound of brakes, it stopped.

Zach looked at the strange guy getting out of the car in front of the window, this man looked at Grande's backyard in a hurry, and then rushed to Benjamin lying in the hammock, "Guy, Mr. Grande, I, I have something to deal with for you......"

Louise walked out the back door of the showroom, probably thinking a client was coming.

It was indeed the customer who came, but it was definitely not the funeral side, because the other party did not go through the main door.

Zach lowered the curtain and looked at Linda with a blank face, the initial goodwill brought by incomparable straightforwardness and honesty had disappeared in the final lie, Zach no longer wanted to hear anything from her, "Do you still have anything to do? Now that your work at Barton has been completed, I don't need to do anything to you, that's enough, you can go." ”

Linda frowned, but still stood up consciously, "No matter what plans the Demon Banquet has for Barton in the future, or what Kozil is going to do in Barton, I want you to know that I have completed my work on the Demon Banquet, and now that I am married to Cliff, the life cycle of the inheritor, can it end, I want to try." I don't want to be swept up in the next ......"

"Then you'd better look forward to your feast and not give you any new work. Zach waved his hand in response, Zach had nothing more to say to this inheritor, and if he had to say it, it was to James. Our vampire realized that James's change of attitude and the threat of Toredo at the Feast had taken his attention for a while, and Zach hadn't asked why Linda had planned for James, dangerously lying to Zack to hide the fact that the two had known each other for a long time.

Just to create the illusion that a famous human general is not a puppet of the Feast in front of a Toredo?

Linda pursed her lips and didn't say anything more, patted Cliff, "Let's go." ”

"Go this way. Zach pointed to the east-facing side door, and when he went out, he was approached by the walled second-floor hallway, which led directly down to the first-floor exhibition room, as Zach had heard Louise leading the guests to the reception room.

After waiting for a while, and hearing Cliff's car leave at the front door, Zach rang the bell and summoned the guests who were pacing in circles in the reception room below.

The elevator hummed, and Zach had just refilled himself with a drink when the man rushed into the office.

Zach looked at the strange man, pointed to his seat, and didn't even make an introduction, and the other party couldn't wait to speak-

"Uh, Don, Donna mentioned that Grande started the original business again...... "The other party's tone was impatient and excited, "I, I have one thing that needs to be dealt with by you, and ......"

Mrs. Donna, the old lady who is still acting with Grande and delaying the funeral is entirely because he has an old friend with old Hank, so Zach can make it convenient and agree to the old lady who is inexplicably entrusted?

"What the original business. Zach spoke calmly, he knew the answer, he just needed the other party to say it and confirm it.

"That's it, it's ......" The other party shook his fist stiffly, with a hideous face, "I have a corpse in my bedroom now!

Grande's original business?The previous generation of Grande's cleaner occupation. The Grande business, because of the convenience of the 'old people' for a time, expanded again.

Zach sighed as the Grande staircase clanged under the trampling of the stamps as it went up the basement at the limit speed of a young detective.

It's just that disgusting, James and Grande are just a little bit more close...... (To be continued.) )
