20 No pressure
Jackson's eyes went from confused to calm in Zack's slow speech, and then he lost his demeanor and walked out of the office 'obediently', he wanted to go back to the car to sleep.
The crimson faded in his eyes, and Zach smiled and looked at Blake, whose eyes widened, "Surprised?" Zach smiled and waved, picked up the wine glass again, and asked lightly as if casually.
Blake turned his gaze away, seemed to adjust his feelings, and asked slowly, hesitantly, "Mayor, does the mayor know?"
A little reminder, when Zach called Anthony last night, he didn't foresee that Blake was at Anthony's house.
Everyone thinks that the mayor of Barton, Anthony, is going to explain to his employees how a funeral owner in the South Side knows about the mayor who has only met twice, and the phone number at home. Well, yes, it was put on the table, once when the South Mill was built, and once when Mrs. Quinn had dinner.
Zack's guess, Anthony didn't waste energy explaining at all, so Blake would confirm suspiciously when he picked up the phone, and then continued without mentioning the matter at all.
Blake has shown with all his actions that he is a person who is good at keeping things in mind.
"We are friends. Zach laughed, a little frustrated, "But he doesn't like me using abilities." Zach tilted his head, "or whatever it is." So whatever happened, he put me far away. Even if you help each other, you have to go around in a big circle. ”
The vampire was vague enough, but the point was there. Grande was the only funeral owner of Barton who still had a cemetery, citing the sophistry that 'citizens need to have a choice'...... These are facts that Blake can see, and they are already very telling.
Blake pursed his lips and thought. Now his head is a bit messy. Of course, it's a revisit to the House of Grande!
This funeral home in the southernmost part of Barton was already very well established before it had a relationship with their West End! The commissions that were settled by Grande were done by the methods used......
"You might find it ridiculous. Zach shook his glass, "Initially made an agreement with Mrs. Quinn. The reason I accepted the commission was simply because I needed money from your old guys on the West End. ”
Straightforward enough.
Zach pouted, "I'm a terrible undertaker. Still smiling, he pointed to his eyes, "Standing on the street and letting passers-by stuff me with red eyes is not in line with my code of conduct......"
The self-confession-like words were interrupted before they could be finished, and Blake frowned. He looked at Zach and asked in an uncertain tone, "Why are you telling me this?"
Zach paused for a moment, and actually nodded inexplicably, "I really don't need to, I can do the same thing to you as I did to Jackson." You won't remember anything. ”
Never underestimate that little bit of a human brow, he can wrinkle enough to make the flounder jealous to death.
It's just that Blake's expression is complicated and incomprehensible. It's giving up, it's a hint of 'it's over.' It's about to be extinguished' feeling.
Zach looked at Blake's weird expression and blinked with a happy smile, "I want to give you a choice, like I did to Jackson, you won't remember anything." Or, we can be true friends. I need, need a friend between Grande and Anthony, the mayor's future. ”
Zach waited for Blake to react for a moment before continuing, "I also need a friend between Grande and the West End. It's easy to understand. ”
Do you understand what Zach is going to do?
Grande's attributes in the city of Barton, this mixed family of alien humans is like an island in a human city, but it has built a bridge with the city. I don't know if it's good or bad, these bridges are getting wider and wider.
Grande is a member of the gray professional circle, an enthusiastic citizen, a last resort that the mayor doesn't want to use (for rivals, anyway, knowing that Grande has zài's ex-wife Aethra, the worse Anthony is, the more Grande wants to go against the mayor's wishes, that's pretty much it), and a money-hire helper for the West Enders.
Let's take the story from the beginning to the present, and the people who know that Zach is 'special' will take it for the future.
No. Rippert, as the person who introduced Grande to the gray professional circle, he was naturally a buffer between Grande and the professional circle. Noor was the only person to turn to when Grande leaked his unprofessionalism, and vice versa, just differently.
Please exclude Mr. Steve Walker, who is a trader, his position has nothing to do with Grande, it is an Indian and gray professional circle.
James Lance, ah, the first guy to appear, certainly corresponds to the zealous citizen. The 'zealous' citizens have to deal with things for Barton that are beyond the reach of the police, and the 'zealous' human cops have to keep an eye on the strange cases for Grande, and finally work together to achieve an outcome acceptable to both humans and aliens.
Please exclude Chapman, hey, he's Crowley's man, don't forget Jì. As for Wes in the South District, Zach was helpless, if only Wes could show up sooner. In order to maintain a mutually unpleasant but at least benign cooperative relationship with James, Wes can't touch this guy......
There are still two buffers that correspond to the bridge. A vampire is not a guy who has an easy crush on people, and when he partners with the wrong people, James is already a helpless example.
At this time, Blake Stone, who can represent two bridges in front of us, is more and more pleasing to the eye the more we look at it!
Blake has the same understanding and tolerance as No, and the same positive heart as James. If you want to say that the most important thing is the ability to put aside prejudice, what makes James the most headache for Zack, and Blake's own unique attributes are there.
"Grande, including Old Hank. Zach raised an eyebrow, "We all like you." "He's inciting Blake to promise him!
"I ......"
"When Grande is in contact with the outside world. Zach didn't want to hear Blake say anything prevaricating, "It's always so frustrating." Zach shook his head, as if helpless, "You know how Grande's so-called rules came about." ”
Blake seemed to be brought in by Zack's words, revealing a sudden expression.
"You should also know why we were so strange when we met Aethra at Lady Quinn's dinner party before. ”
Blake's mind circled and muttered, "They were once married." Blake suddenly looked at Zack again, "Ai, Aethera knows you, you, you ......" How do you express it? Zach hasn't really shown his true face yet.
"Special. Zach raised his eyebrows, Zach said before, the choice he gave, the other party hasn't chosen yet!
"Special, special. Blake repeated in confusion.
There was silence in the office.
Zach took a sip of his wine and honestly waited for an answer.
"I, can I go back and think about it?" Blake asked after thinking for a long time, as if he realized that he had made his master wait too long.
"Of course. Zach smiled and nodded, "Don't be pressured. Raising an eyebrow again, he added, "It's just a small memory loss, and you won't feel anything after that, you can follow Jackson and feel it." ”
Blake glanced at Zach with a wry smile, knowing that it was a joke, but he couldn't take it easy, and silently repeated, "No pressure......" (to be continued......
