6 Zach's question
"How?"
When Detective Wes came out of Syris's house and the bike was back on Route 27, Zach sat back in the back seat without a sound. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"You didn't listen?" Wes was genuinely questioned.
"I listened, heard Cyrus mention Brill's friend in Newton and left. Zach was saying that he hadn't finished, "Anyway, it's already very close to Newton, I went to Newton and asked Newton's angel to ask for me about the next month, and Brill is not there." Let them help pay attention, do you have any useful things to talk about? β
The point is to be useful. Let's be honest, Zach is bored listening, one is a anxious man whose fiancΓ©e is missing, and the other is a police detective who has no one to pay attention to in the police station and comes to inquire with a sense of human responsibility. The conversation between the two is programmed and very boring. Zach didn't want to waste time on the sidelines.
Our vampire did make a trip to Newton, just to cross the border, not far, really, but not for Brill. Inform Yuehua Baiying that Zack had done it before he went out, and the real reason why Zach went to Newton's side was that he saw a few Cerberus running towards Newton, so he followed to take a look.
Guess what you saw? No clue, right, Zack, the guy who saw what happened, didn't have a clue - Barton's Cerberus was fighting with Newton's Cerberus over a groundbinder on Newton's side. An angel floated in and kicked the earthbound spirit to heaven. Come to an end.
Zack didn't quite know how to describe Wes, so he told a harmless little lie, and no one minded.
"I didn't think it was useful. Wes was answering Zack's question, and although he was talking and shouting while driving, he still had a depressed tone, "Cyrus said that Brill often goes to your Grande's cemetery, tsk, she's definitely not there with you, right, and said that Brill will go to the nursing home to see friends these days, uh, Cyrus probably doesn't know that Brill's friends are gone." Then it's all messy places, woods, seaside, supermarkets, adult video stores, ...... "Wes didn't want to list," Wes didn't want to list, "forget about crowded places, if you really want to be a descendant of Mokawi, I probably won't be in public, the rest are time-consuming and laborious places to find, I have to go back to the police station to find some support." Uh, I don't think anyone will ......"
"Ahem. Zach brushed his presence, "I'm your support, do you need anyone else?"
Wes's shoulders moved and accelerated, "You didn't notice her and Mokawi when you crossed the border." β
"No, I met two Nophiles who were searching, and I can give them to them. β
"Okay, then let's go to the beach. "Turned around, to the east.
The seaside of the southern district is no better than the seaside of the northern district. The north district is for entertainment, and it is already considered a place of public entertainment, while the south district is the same as a murderous place. It's not that the uncultivated towering reefs in Ixton are also on the smooth beaches and seas, but remember the disappearance of Mel Sr.'s grandson? Places that are slightly safer in the natural environment have been artificially put up with 'dangerous' signs.
Not to mention the recently started construction work on the cemetery where the original Allen was buried. A large section of the coastline adjacent to the cemetery has been cut off by iron mesh, and signs saying 'Do not approach the construction site' are inserted everywhere. Don't forget, build a new port. It is also Barton's largest project in the South End since its establishment.
"I hope this place doesn't fall away halfway through construction like Ixton. Tut. Wes stopped the car and said casually. I took a photo of Brill from my pocket, and I was going to go to the construction site to ask the person in charge about the situation first.
"No, it's the city government that wants to build this port, not like those real estate developers. Zach also replied casually. This place looks quite human, well, comfortable. Don't be mistaken, the construction site is not comfortable, noise, garbage, unsafe environmental factors, none of them are related to comfort. Zach's comfort was the boat with the Fisher logo, the building materials sent by the Smith team, and the construction team wearing the Falken logo uniform...... Yes, it's a project of the city government of Barton, hehe, but it's also a project of the people of Barton.
Then he actually grabbed Wes, who was about to go to the construction site, "Before you go, I want to ask you something." β
"Uh, in a hurry?"
"If Mokawi transforms Brill into a descendant here......" Zach raised an eyebrow, "not a bad place, to be objective." It is convenient to replenish when there are many people, and it can also be very hidden. "After all, it's a complex construction site, and it's suitable for something 'weird' to happen," Mokawi is special, unlike me. Zach pointed to his eyes and shrugged, "I can make descendants very peacefully, because what can I do? Mokawi is different in that the nascent Mokawi has to receive a lot of knowledge about the abilities of all the clans of the thirteen clans. Not all the abilities of the thirteen clans are as 'peaceful' as me, Torredo's sight. β
"You, what do you want to say?" Wes had an ominous premonition.
"I'm saying, when you go in, you may have to play your role as a police detective. Newborn vampires will have a period of instability, psychologically, physically, and need to adjust. And we're talking about Mokawi again. Zach's fingers circled the side of his head, giving him a knowing look, "I'm not saying someone is going to die, but there's definitely something strange going on." You're consumed here, and there's probably no better time to ask than what I'm going to ask. β
It was obvious that Wes was nervous, looking in the direction of the construction site with an irritated look. Looking back at Zack, there was confusion in the irritability, "Ask me what? What does it have to do with Mokawi?"
Zach did say the word 'opportunity', and that meant it was contextual. But Wes really didn't know what Zach had to ask him about Mokawi.
"Yes. Zach had a smile on his face, "You once gave me a deck of poker, the poker of the Thirteen Clans, remember?" β
"Well, that's a thank you gift, I think you might be interested in that......"
"So, you do know that the feminized portrait on poker is the Thirteen Clans, it's a vampire?" Zach kept smiling and raised an eyebrow, "and you'll give it to me." Well, do you know who drew the picture on the poker card? β
"Uh, I don't know. Wes's gaze drifted a little, as if avoiding Zach.
"It's Mokawi. Zach replied, "In the colonial wars, in order to familiarize the human soldiers with their 'comrades-in-arms', the Thirteen Clans drew these things and printed them with pokers, so that the soldiers could get acquainted with us 'comrades-in-arms' at any time when they were having fun." Zach waved his hand, "Mind games, so that at least they don't fear our special 'comrades', you can understand." β
Wes's expression revealed something more, he not only understood, but he knew about it!
"I've always wanted to ask you about that deck of poker, but it didn't come at a good time, and now it looks like a good opportunity. So, I'd like to ask, Mokave's poker, if I'm not mistaken, was destroyed after the end of the colonial war, and the Thirteen Clans made their final contribution to the newly formed Federation before splitting, erasing the memories of those soldiers to their 'comrades'. And how did this thing get into your hands?"
There was silence for a while, "That's what someone else gave me, too." Finally glanced at Zach, "Because James and I are friends." And James, very ......" frowned, "very ......"
"Ignorance?" Zach tried to fill in.
"Uh, no!" presumably instinctively defended someone, then shook his head speechlessly, "Confused, I always don't know where I am......" I adjusted my mood as I took a deep breath, "I'm not going to hide these things, I'm just, uh!*." "Inexplicably, the tone doesn't seem to be right, it seems to be just depressed, "I just think that after coming to Barton, that poker doesn't mean much to me...... Uh, it's not that there's no point in giving it to you!" explained in a hurry, "It's that it doesn't make sense with me anymore, James already knows the facts, vampires, aliens, the Lance family, and the Feast." He already knows, so I don't need to ...... anymore."
Wess may have been confused and confusing, but Zach understood.
Zach raised an eyebrow, the corners of his mouth began to curl wider, and he squinted, "Wes, be honest, I'm not the first vampire you know, am I?"
"Nope. You're not. "Honestly.
"Who is it? the vampire of the Demon Feast?"
"Probably, I don't know what he is. "After honesty, it's smooth," he was my comrade-in-arms with James, but he never showed any special abilities in front of people, so I don't know. He...... He loves tomato juice. Wes looked at Zach and pouted. Frowning, he recalled, "He gave me that deck of poker and told me to 'be optimistic about the Lance boy, Wes, you're a lucky guy'." Apparently quoting someone, "I didn't know what he meant at the time, and. "Roll your eyes, uh, Wes rolled his eyes, his nature was accidentally revealed, "I hate that deck of poker." β
To be precise, the feminization that Wes hates...... Not much more.
"I started to notice something special. Wes continued, "James must have died many times, and we should have died many times on the missions we did together. But we don't, many of the blacked-out parts recorded in our archival documents, not because the tasks we carry out are classified and cannot be made public, but because the process is not even known to us. Miraculously, the mission is done. And our comrades-in-arms are always sucking tomato juice. β
"He's protecting, hehe. Zach borrowed a quote from Wess, "'Lance Kid', and you, Wes, are the 'lucky guy' next to 'Lance Kid'." "It's also a summary.
"Yes. β
I don't understand, look at it this way.
James Lance is going to enter the Demon Feast sooner or later, and the son inherits the father's business, doesn't he? We already know that the Lance family and Cozier are world friends, and James has a successor, Linda, as a neighbor, so isn't it strange that James was surrounded by many vampires when he was a soldier. The son of General Lance, it's hilarious to die in the middle of a mission.
So what is Wes, no one is it, just the lucky guy who is lucky enough to be friends with James of the 'Protagonist Aura'. James can survive mission after mission, and his closest comrade-in-arms, Wes, can survive. Even better, Wes is still an orphan with a clean background, why don't you take advantage of it?
Zach nodded, "So it's the same mind game that prepares you to be a special 'comrade-in-arms' who will become James's partner in the future, because no matter what the future holds, you, as James's friend, will have a bright future with him, and you will be him...... Hehe, James's character, not to mention, you will be the factor that affects his psychology, right? Zach smiled, "I've always admired your indifferent attitude towards interracial events, it turned out to be cultivated by the Demon Feast, not bad." I'm a little surprised, the Demon Banquet still retains this 'tradition', and it seems that the last thing that the Thirteen Clans did together, the Demon Banquet also betrayed. β
"I wouldn't have come back to Barton so soon, I would have been in the West, working under Darcy, and then I would have the opportunity to come to Barton and be James's partner. But. "Having said that, after being honest, it's smooth," but the three months after James came to Barton were very, uh, very ......."
"Uncontrolled. Zach shrugged, "He didn't have the relationship he should have with Barton's West Enders, and he didn't make many appearances in the media after Barton got credit, accumulating the reputation he deserves." β
Wes sighed, "Well, so I'm back, and I'll be on Newton's co-op mission with him as soon as I get back." "Fight Club infiltration. Glancing at Zach, "Then I knew why James had solved some special cases at Barton, but he was still unknown." β
"Because of me. Zach laughed, remembering how James and Wes had behaved in room 105 of that little hotel. Remember, James, the guy who didn't think he was holding a dagger bucket of Zack, and Wes, heh, was a calm onlooker, listening to Jason talk about the Saints and Gangero's club, watching Zack play.
Memories are a good thing, and Zach feels refreshed, "So, Wes, now I can think that you are also a member of the Demon Feast?"
Take a deep breath, "Count." "Honesty is also a good thing," he said, looking at Zach, "I know you don't like the Feast, and what you're doing now isn't for the Feast." "What are you going to do to me, Zach." β
"Nope. Zach smiled and shook his head, "You gave me that deck of poker, didn't you, you already know who the 'real guy' is when it comes to affecting James's psyche." β
Successive deep inhalations were exhaled at this point, and Wes slowly closed his eyes with a relaxed expression.
Zach patted Wes on the shoulder, "I'm done asking, you can go." β
Wes nodded and turned to go.
Just a little, well, understandably mental, "I'm a friend of James." Wes looked back at Zach, who was already rolling up his sleeves and trousers, "It used to be for James, because he couldn't figure out the situation, and I was going to watch from the sidelines." β
As a sign of respect, Zach pauses and smiles.
"It's still for James, I don't need to do my own thing and live my life in the Southside like I did in the West. After a pause, "I've never liked magic feasts or anything, they just manipulate and control people, and never explain." As if we were just tools, to be used, and I was just for James. But, I like you, Zach, at least you'll answer my questions and tell me the truth, even if it's going to be me, something that is hard for humanity to accept, and you're, well, treat everyone, and be good. β
"Thanks. But, hehe, but don't let James hear that. He'll want to be crooked. Zach waved his hand and continued to move, "Don't let Jason hear it~" For the sake of being in a good mood.
