In James's attic, Chapman was a little dazed, and this was his first visit to James's house. He knew the background of the young police detective, but he was still a little surprised when he saw the real second-generation living environment. Chapman groped the hard couch unnaturally, wondering if he was thinking about whether the thing was sitting or how much it was worth.

Benjamin and Zach were much more natural, beckoning to Chapman and leading him to the bar for a glass of wine.

James's face was bad, he picked up the receiver, dialed the phone from Cowson's house, turned his head, glared at the vampire and Alpha, and told them not to be too comfortable.

"Corson, it's me, Lance. James looked at Chapman, who had a strange look in his eyes, shook his head, and said with a quick conversation.

"Lance, where have you been!" Corson said with a hint of sleepiness in his tone, as if he had just fallen asleep, but couldn't hide his anger, uh, anger. No one is happy that their partner is missing, especially when one of the officers is already missing.

"I'm at home. James didn't look at the three at the bar, took a deep breath, he was about to start lying, "Chapman is there, we've found him." ”

"What?!" the voice in the earpiece immediately became excited, "how is he......?

'He's fine, he's not injured and he's not in danger. James frowned.

"What the hell is going on?!" asked Curson excitedly, and Mrs. Curson whispered in the background of the earpiece.

"It's not much. James glanced at Chapman, "Last night he went straight to the bar after he went to the southeast, and he got drunk and lost consciousness. Guns, car keys, things were stolen. Abandoned in the woods on the border of the Southern Sector when he woke up, he was wandering around when he was found. ”

There was silence on both sides of the phone for a long time. Then there was Colson's voice of relief, "That's good! This is good! We're going to find that bastard who stole something! I'm going to kill that guy!"

James slowly closed his eyes. Holding his breath, "It's late tonight, I'll send Chapman back, and I'll talk about it tomorrow." ”

"Okay, okay! You send him back. Corson yelled on the other end of the phone, "Tomorrow, tomorrow! We're going to turn over those bastards in the Southeast!"

James hung up the phone and turned to look at the three people at the bar, too much love. Finally the balance was wonderfully formed, and he said calmly, "It's done." ”

Zach lifted the cup of red liquid and slightly, "It's done." ”

Benjamin patted Chapman on the shoulder, "Let's go, we'll send you back." Let these two guys talk. "I called Matthew, who was dozing off on the couch, and was about to leave.

"Why does he remember everything!" James's calm vanished, and he lowered his voice as he stared at the iron door of the attic that was gradually closing. Of course. The words were addressed to Zach.

Zach waited for the iron door to fully close and sat back at the bar, "Do you want me to twist his will?" Zach brought the detective a glass of whiskey. Throwing in two ice cubes, looking at James's frowning brow, he took a sip of his red supper.

"I thought you didn't like me using the Pupil of Enchantment. Zach paused, "To my colleagues." Zach blinked, "Or is it just a double standard, as long as it doesn't work for you?"

James grimaced, and the bridge of his nose was straight, as if it had been pinched between his brows. Thank you for the vampire's blood, otherwise James's pretty good face would probably be ruined. Wandel was heavy-handed.

On the way back, Chapman cooperated with Zach's story. Vampires and Shadow People fight on the edge of Newton. Of course, the filmmaker was defeated and coerced by vampires. Forced the agreement, and gave loyalty.

Zach placed a bottle containing a small portion of Vendall on the bar and pushed it towards James, "Would you like to see it?"

"Get that thing away from me!" James didn't want to touch, slamming his glass against the bottle and pushing Zach back.

Zach is distracting. He carried a hint of contrived grievance, "I thought you would be glad that I let Wandel go." Don't you think it's a good thing to have Crowley's people shift?"

James glanced at Zach with disgust, and after a moment of silence, he shook his head helplessly, he didn't have the childish evil taste of a vampire, "I think you planned to do so from the beginning......! Clear, or become your own people!"

"I won't deny it. Zach smiled and withdrew the bottle, "But the most important purpose is to save Chapman." Zach looked James in the eye, "Now that he's back intact, why aren't you upset?"

"Him!" James clenched his glass. Hearing Cowson's repeat of 'This is good!' in the earpiece just now, James had the idea that this might be a really good ending, "But he shouldn't remember this!" Of course, James still insisted on his thoughts, "What the hell do you want to do? Let the people in the police department know about the existence of the alien race, and return you Grande, is it the alien family?!"

"Are you worried about Grande?" Zach smiled, "I'm impressed. ”

James glared at Zack, the boredom on his face not trying to hide.

"All right, James. Zach shook his head, "Don't worry, I think Chapman is a person with a clear sense of purpose, and he wouldn't talk to anyone." Our secrets are safe with him. Zakla said in a long tail with a teasing laugh, "Unless, unless you feel that your relationship with us Grande is embarrassing you and you don't want anyone to know." ”

James did not want to respond to this statement, which was both true and incorrect. Pursed his lips and stared at his cup.

Zach smiled and stopped pressuring James, "Alright, James. As a police detective, shouldn't you be glad that one of your colleagues has someone who also knows the truth. Zach shook his glass, "Now you have someone you can share something you can't say without holding it back." ”

The vampire touches the cup on James's cup, the red liquid swaying in the cup, and is pushed away by James in annoyance as he is about to jump into another cup.

Zach is making his point with his actions, "Look. You need someone in the same situation to share and communicate, which is good for your body and mind. "Chapman is also a police officer, in the same position as James, just at a different level.

James had given up on vampire theories, and he wouldn't think it was good for ordinary people to know about the existence of aliens. But whatever it is, it makes sense in the vampire's mouth, and there is no point in rebutting it. I can't say it, but I can't beat it.

Instead of dwelling on the established facts, James began to think about the future, "What are you going to do with Chapman in the future? If you're going to beat up his family's idea!" I warn you!"

These humans always think of vampires in the worst way, and Zach smiled helplessly, "His family? What can I do? Cure his son's illness? Isn't that a good thing?"

James pursed his lips, there are two kinds of threats, one is to make good things bad, and the other is to make bad things good, but they are all the same nature, they are all obedient threats that make people go against their hearts.

He didn't know much about Chapman, and Zach said that the sense of purpose was clear, and he agreed. But James didn't know the character of the other man. James wasn't sure if the vampire had promised something that shouldn't have happened in order to get Chapman to cooperate, even if it was to make the bad things better, but it was still a threat. is wrong.

"Have you had!" was a complicated state of mind that James didn't want to say more, so he just asked for an answer in a strong tone.

"Of course not. Zach shook his head helplessly, "The original intention of saving Chapman was to give him a second chance. Zach looked at James with a smile on his face, "Instead of giving him a pass to get out of the way and take advantage of a good thing." ”

James's face sank.

"The point is ......," Zach seemed intrigued, "and it's like a test paper for Chapman." He was given the opportunity to reflect on what he had done wrong, and now, because of you, because of me, he can do it all over again with a new perspective. ”

"What is this. James lowered his voice, "Do you think it's funny? ”

Zach looked at James, pursed his lips and smiled, letting James think for himself.

The privilege of starting over does not fall from the sky. James had to accept that someone who could give a second chance, like Zach, was a 'guy' with power beyond humans. Only by accepting and acknowledging this can we truly face up to this world where various races coexist, and can we make the right decisions in such a world, to exploit, cooperate, or close our eyes and ignore them.

Otherwise, like Chapman, who has no understanding of the world, after disappointing everyone, he will almost lose a qiē and die alone in a foreign land after being used by the filmmaker.

Come to think of it, Chapman will indeed succeed in getting the insurance money. And then, the people in the police department, they all know the truth.

After a long silence, James slowed his voice, "You are no higher than us. ”

Zach raised his eyebrows, satisfied, "Of course not." We live in the same place, do the same things, and go above and beyond. I'm just being objective, and if you don't like my trope, I'll take it back. ”

James glanced at Zack, it didn't matter if he took it back or not, it wasn't a shame to admit that a vampire was more objective than himself.

"You can go. James waved his hand, he had to rest well today, and tomorrow he had to deal with Curson, who knows what was going to happen.

"Oh!" Zach stood up, "Crowley's men who were sent out of Barton City are the easiest targets. "We'll get everything in place tonight." ”

James's brow furrowed again, "Don't tell me that!" Walked quickly to the iron door and pulled it open. (To be continued)
