22 Louise who was delayed
Louise is ready to pull Matthew out the door, hey, continue to look for the missing Charlie. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
I could have gone out earlier, but I was delayed by something boring, more than one, starting from the beginning-
James called and asked Louise to take a trip to Newton......
Without saying anything, Louise refused angrily, "No." β
"I really need your help right now......"
"And who's going to help me now?" Louise was speechless, and James was actually emphasizing 'now', heh, now, as if Louise was idle now.
"At least help me get in touch with Newton's Black Witch, can you?"
Louise almost relented, "Black Witch, you're looking for them? I'm sorry, Maya has gone to school, you can ask Sbella to help you." β
It's not that Louise wants to be so cold, but she can think of James as a matter for Kate with her toes, so Louise strictly adheres to Zack's explanation, completely avoids suspicion, and is not ready to get involved at all.
"I've already looked for it!" James on the other side of the earpiece became inexplicably irritated, "Sbella directly refused! Said that I was the seed planted in Barton by the Demon Feast! If I still had the slightest self-consciousness of being a duplicitous person, I shouldn't have had any contact with the Demon Banquet vampire in Patton! After calling me stupid, she hung up on me!!"
So Grande wasn't James' first choice for help! Yes, Mr. Detective.
But it's also really stupid, just like Zack and Eli, who have the same name as 'Toledo', are opposites, the Demon Banquet and the Inian Wizards with the idea of completing the former colonial mission are also inevitably opposites. James really doesn't have a big picture. This kind of thing still needs to be reminded.
Louise raised an eyebrow, "Sbella is right. Then he hung up. I said that I could hang it like this, what are you talking about?
Of course, it was inevitable that James's second call came immediately, and Louise picked it up and hung up directly after confirming that it was still James. This was repeated twice, and the guy over there should be dead. The phone stopped ringing, and Louise had a chance to check on someone's status before heading out.
This person is Russell who temporarily lives in the Grande living quarters.
Russell's mental state was terrible, and in his exact words it was, "What?!Charlie isn't the Charlie he used to be?Can he walk in the sun?Is he Toledo?What is Toredo?Is Toledo a vampire??"
The point is never the literal meaning of the words, but the meaning of these emotional questions.
Russell, knowing that there are vampires in this world, but, his cognition, too, is too small. He didn't know about the Thirteen Clans, he didn't know about the Thirteen Clans, he didn't know about the gifts given to the Thirteen Clans by the Holy Lord, and he didn't know how vampires appeared on this continent......
He didn't even know much about aliens. The only thing he knew was, uh, a little embarrassing-
A few years ago, his good friend, Charlie, approached him and asked to stay at his house for a while. Then, he disgusted that his friends didn't work, had a chaotic schedule, and brought back strangers in the middle of the night...... All kinds of behaviors that will make a master gradually lose patience with the people who live in their own homes, everyone can make up for it by themselves. So, Russell was ready to drive Charlie away. And then something happened, in Russell's words, 'shattering everything I knew about Charlie': Charlie told Russell that it wasn't that he wasn't working, that he wasn't having a chaotic schedule, that he wasn't living a disorderly life...... It's that he's a vampire, he's not human.
At the end of this story, it is Russell who moves.
Louise knocked on the door, "Are you awake, Russell?"
"I'm awake. The man wrapped in the blanket opened the door for Louise, and the dark blue circles under his eyes showed his physical and mental state.
"Don't worry, I'll find Charlie. β
"This is retribution!" Russell curled up in the corner of the bed. I can't cause a misunderstanding for everyone, Grande's living quarters are well-equipped, the heating is first-class, and Russell's performance is just his personal behavior! The opening of the blanket is already emitting a sour smell, I'm afraid this guy has been covering it for a day.
"Don't say that. Louise didn't know how to comfort the human. Because, the whole thing, there is a little, well, dog blood.
"This is retribution!I 'ran away' first!!I betrayed our friendship because of my senseless fear!!I spent so many years looking for him!I wanted to say sorry to him!"" said him, this guy is in a very bad state, "Now I have finally found him!He fled!No! He didn't run away! He didn't want to see me! I drove him away!!I drove him away just when his life was finally stable!!"
Look, dog blood, very put in the soap opera, the inexplicable emotional outbursts of various characters.
Louise pursed her lips, maybe Mo was better suited to deal with this situation, forget it, ready to leave goodbye, "We'll look for him." β
"Wait a minute!" the guy held out a hand from the blanket, unexpectedly white, "what if you find him and he doesn't want to come back?!What if I don't want to come back because I'm here?!"
Louise wanted to say, 'Find him first!' but she couldn't say anything so unkindly, and sighed, "Why do you always think that? After all these years, you came here with apologies, just to see him." You can let go of your and, uh, 'fears' and regain this friendship. He can't let go of his 'betrayal' and see you. He shook his head incomprehensibly. This is already the most 'nice' thing Louise can say.
The hand that held Louise was released and withdrawn, "Thank you, thank you......" seemed to be moved.
Louise needed to leave before she could show her speechlessness, nodding her head and preparing to continue......
"You must think this kind of thing is stupid, don't you? Unexpectedly calm, Russell still cowered in the corner of the bed.
Louise knew she couldn't go for a whileβwhen a guy who had been emotionally speaking something dramatic a moment ago suddenly spoke calmly, everyone knew that this was definitely not the time to turn away.
Louise bowed her head helplessly, to hide her look, and sat back on the edge of the bed, "No, I don't think it's stupid. "It's right to refute, so that the obedient person can continue to be moved.
"You know some movies that always like to stretch the time span, shoot a person's life, and then express the feeling that the individual is a lifetime, and if it's gone, it's gone. "Hey, hell knows what this bad guy is trying to say.
"Yes. Louise can only play the role of a good listener, "I've seen movies like this. β
"Then the movie of my life, a lifetime, a few decades, is the one who has been betraying his friend and running away when he needs him most. And then in the final moments, it's me lying in bed, leaving a row of cloudy tears, saying into the air, 'I'm sorry, my friend,' and the screen goes black, and the subtitles start rolling, and the play ends. β
Louise had to collapse her face and squint at Russell, if this guy was sick. Quickly retracted his gaze, "You think too much, you should know now that death is definitely not the end of the show." Because she didn't know how to communicate with this guy at all, Louise could only throw out the reality facts, "You're going to be a groundbinder, and then like most people in the Federation, go to heaven or hell......"
The facts are not lost, they are interrupted. Russell became excited again, "That's even worse!" A face was piled up with all kinds of negative emotions, and he also began to lose the reality of the facts, "You only told me what a vampire is yesterday! If you want to go to another world, it is goodbye! You can't even say goodbye goodbye! Charlie will live forever in this world! And I, and I! will regret it forever in another world!" "The curled body seems to be going into the gap in the corner of the bed!"I am definitely going to hell!!absolly!"
The corners of Louise's mouth twitched a few times. This can be regarded as the charm of soap operas, you will be speechless about the absurdity of the plot, and at the same time be infected by the emotions of the characters...... "Actually, you don't have to blame yourself." You haven't done anything wrong, fear, it's not something to blame yourself for, your escape, it's not betrayal, it's not sin. Honestly, you've spent so many years looking for Charlie and have proven that you're a good guy and you're going to heaven. Of course, Louise had an epilogue, and with another attempt to get up and leave, "Find Charlie, say what you want to say, the whole thing will be better, and the movie of your life will have a good ending......"
The white hand was stretched out again. Louise almost rolled her eyes as she grabbed her sleeve and looked over at a pair of eyes shimmering in a blanket that made it impossible to look at the sparkling light, "Thank you......"
"No thanks. Louise tried to be as calm as she could, took Charlie's hand away, and "...... again," but didn't say anything.
"Have you ever experienced anything like this?" Russell asked a new question.
It's also human nature, when you are comforted, you will naturally think that the person who gives you comfort understands you and is the same kind of person who has empathized with you. After exposing your embarrassment, you instinctively want to know the other person's story. It's not a balanced bad taste, it's just a quest for more experience from people who have come before.
"Nope. Louise disappointed Russell, "I haven't gone through this kind of thing. Louise frowned herself, and a somewhat inexplicably sad thought came to her mind, 'I wonder what would have happened if I had told my friend who had lived in life that I was a vampire. β
The other party's fear of running away should be something that can be determined, human behavior, too well predicted, that, and then what.
Louise shook her head, abandoning the inexplicable thought. It's a good thing that things don't happen to you in soap operas. Unfortunately, I obviously felt the hand that grabbed my sleeve stiffened. Well, the other party is still seeking life experience! It's just empty words, which will be disappointing!
Louise reacted quickly, "But Zach has." "Zach has shared the story many times, and he is still a bad word...... As everyone knows, "It was a tragic 'movie', he lived to the present, more than four centuries, and the person who was scared away by fear at first, Zach can't even remember his name." β
"Oh. The stiffness eased a bit, "so I still have a chance to correct the tragedy." β
Louise pursed her lips, the truth is that she talked about other people's life stories, very relaxed, and nodded, "Yes, you still have a chance." Take Russell's hand again, "And this opportunity requires me to find Charlie first." "The landing point has to be here, and Louise's patience has almost worn out.
Considered self-realization, Russell of the blanket did not say any words again, only one sentence, "I know it's nothing, but I hope that Zach, well, Mr. Toledo's experience will be a little better, well, at least there will be an 'end', not that I don't want to think about it forever." β
Louise frowned as she walked out the door, this hope, not only meaningless, but also sounded like a curse. It doesn't make sense because it's been a long time ago, and I hope it can be used. The curse is that Zach can't remember his name now, and it's best to forget about it in the future, so why go on forever, uh. Forget it, why bother with a human who would compare his life to a short movie......
Louise stopped in the hallway. His face began to turn strange. It's something that comes to mind.
Do you hope that Zack's experience will at least have an 'ending'......
'I'm sorry' - confirmed by Alice and Maya, the message Eli Toledo left next to the deer carcasses.
Deer...... Let Zach, who was once not good at words, confess the reason why he is a vampire to the human whose name and appearance have been lost in order to defend himself not as stealing the food of the nobles.
Louise rushed out of the living area with a complicated face, Benjamin, Louise could only share her conjectures with Benjamin now. I hope that Alpha, who doesn't care about anything, can knock himself and tell himself that this kind of boring and bloody thing won't happen to Zack!
Halfway through his rush to Benjamin's warehouse, he was stopped by the phantom Danny who was standing in front of him-
"The call, the other party called himself Lesenbra. β
Louise's face darkened completely, and she looked away from Benjamin's warehouse with difficulty, and deflected toward Grande.
"Did I feel honored that I personally called Grande. β
This was the first thing Louise heard when she picked up the earpiece. Louise didn't respond, because her patience had been completely worn out by the first two things.
"Don't speak?" "There seemed to be some confusion on the other side of the earpiece, "This is not Toredo's usual style of thoughtful etiquette~ Didn't Zach teach you, Miss Louise." β
Louise still didn't speak, the reason, who is the other party, then the introduction can be saved, there is no need for thorough etiquette.
"Okay. "Since it's a phone call, I'll take care of it, but you'd better give a clear response to what I'm going to say next." Hehe. "The most speechless behavior, without saying anything, began to fall into their own emotional laughter, "Because it is very important, it will be related to Toredo, Barton, and even the federal ......"
Louise couldn't hold back, "Hurry up, I still have something to deal with." β
There was silence on the other side of the earpiece for a moment, "I, forgive you. He said it very slowly, and then he was afraid that the earpiece would not be able to realize the connection between the deliberately elongated sentences, "I ......"
Interrupted again, Louise was very direct, "Forgiveness, only if you have to continue to deal with it in the future, will you forgive, right?" So, you've made your choice, right, you've chosen Zach. "I don't know, if you don't choose Zack, forgive the fart, and contact Eli to kill Zack.
There was silence on the other side of the earpiece for a while, "I ......"
"Okay, I got it. "Louise hangs.
Went to Benjamin's warehouse, then came out and pulled Matthew......
