13 The Return of Benjamin
As soon as she got close to Grande, Louise didn't even have the heart to park in the backyard, so she pushed the door and got out of the car angrily, leaving Zach and rushing into Grande. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Naturally, Zach tried to chase and continue to apologize - Zach had already apologized all the way, well, not entirely accurate.
On the way back from the West End to the North End, Zach apologized for losing his sunglasses, "I overestimated the effect of gravity, I thought it (the sunglasses) would fall from the same position as me, but apparently it didn't, I wonder where it would fall......"
On the way from the North Side to the South Side, Zach felt a little more conscious, apologizing for not tearing Mrs. Sheila's skirt, "Now that I think about it, I kind of don't understand what I was thinking, uh, I probably just wanted to pull her down from the air, uh, or, I don't ......want her to come down?"
On the way from the South Side to the North District, Zach finally regained 'Zack', and the appearance was that the red like a light bulb had faded, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been so reckless, I shouldn't have worried you, I really don't know what I was thinking at the time." And I still don't understand why I was so confident at the time, I wanted to set a record for falling from a height, I should die in front of you, my heart should be turned into a puddle of mud with my body......"
"Shut up!!"
"I'm sorry, Louise, I ...... sincerely"
"Shut up!"
Until now.
Zach stuck to the front door that was slammed against him, pouted, and walked sideways into the backyard, simple thoughts, the front door was not open to the back door.
But as he stepped onto the back porch, he paused in the air, and Zach changed direction, on the one hand, he should have fully realized that Louise would definitely ignore him for a while, and on the other hand, Benjamin was back, and in the new living area on the west side, he glanced at Zack in a window on the second floor, shrugged his shoulders as if he was watching a play, and then turned around, not knowing what he was doing.
The back and forth of the West Side, which had not done anything, had completely wasted the morning, and it was already noon, and according to Saidier, sure enough, the upgrade of the security company had been completed, and only Austin and his workers were taking a break in the makeshift rest shed next to the new living area.
Zach walked into the new living area as a proof that Zach really didn't care about the fact that Zach had never once taken a good look at the living area that would bring future employees to the Grande Funeral Home. This was the first time, and the reason was also to look for a staircase to go up to the second floor to find Benjamin.
Zach can understand the displeasure of Saidir Security, the structure here is really complicated. When you think you see a hallway that leads through many rooms, you assume that the end of the hallway is a staircase, common sense, don't you? But no, at the end of the hallway is just the public bathroom in the dormitory area. When you see an open room and think that the stairs should always be around the corner, no, the corner is a new corridor, welcome to the family unit area.
Zach pursed his lips and began to recall that he had only glanced at the blueprints at the beginning of the project, and found the stairwell attached to the east exterior wall...... Leave it alone.
In the family unit area, in room number 203, Zach finds Benjamin.
The space of more than 40 square meters is divided into living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens and bathrooms, and a narrow small empty room, the decoration is not very perfect, and Grand only provides basic furniture, tables, chairs, counters, etc. Benjamin was sitting at what looked like a second-hand refurbished round table with a pen in hand, the papers spread out on the table, and next to him stood a Bane who was nervously saluting Zach when he saw him enter. Benjamin glanced at Zach and spoke.
"You're not here, old Hank doesn't have the right to sign these things, so let me come. As he spoke, he signed the name 'Benjamin Grande' on the document in front of him, scribbled and scratched out with his paws, but it didn't matter, as one of Grande and his master, it worked.
Zach nodded, glanced at Bane, and felt as if he should say something to the employee who lived in the Grande, but, what to say, uh, so embarrassing, "So, yes." Zach pursed his lips, "This is the house you chose?" or just came out with one nonsense.
Unexpectedly, Bane, who had never spoken a few words to his boss Zach since he came to work at Grande, was actually very happy to hear this nonsense, and nodded quickly, a little nervous, a little excited, "Yes, yes! The window can see the backyard......" He began to wave his hand, pointing in this small space, "Out of the activity space with a transparent patio, close to the stairs, and the children's room is also in the corner, so it won't ......be noisy."
Zach saw Bane pointing to the small room, there was not even a table in it, that is, there was no trace of decoration, that is, if Bane was now talking about his plans for this new home with full expectations for his future life, then he still needed a complete renovation plan, and he couldn't just move in and leave the baby on the ground.
Benjamin was still signing the papers, and he smiled and didn't know who to say, "Don't worry, Austin has already stuffed the business card." ”
"Hehe, yes. Bane also felt that Zach didn't care much, and calmed down his nervousness and excitement a little, "Mr. Austin said, when this place is completed, the decoration here can be completed together, don't worry about me renovating alone and affecting Grande's normal business......"
"The cost and the work are added to Grande's accounts. It's the only time Zach has been acting like a boss, "You don't have to worry about it." ”
"Really, really?" said Bane, surprised.
Zach waved his hand, "You're the first employee to move in, and there's a bit of a perk." ”
"Thank you! I, uh, I should have called my wife! Thank you, Mr. Grande! You don't know how much this will help our family!"
Zach was no longer interested in paying attention to this happy guy, watching Bane run out of the door, he should have gone to the temporary switchboard in the public room to make a call, and Zach sat down in front of Benjamin, and looked through the documents that Benjamin had signed for a while with little interest, which was a bit much, "What are they?"
"Labor contract. Benjamin replied as he signed, "Subsidy contract, rental contract, utilities, telephone, heating, a bunch of ...... After the privatization, the city government no longer gave these direct rights to the funeral home, and it is clear that these things can only be legally valid by the contract between Grande and the employees. Benjamin smiled and pushed a stack to Zack, "You want to help?"
It was supposed to be Zack's job, Zach grabbed a pen, didn't even look at it, his hand shook in the air, the pen touched the paper, and signed what was indeed Benjamin's name, "What? Zach tilted his head at Benjamin, who was looking at him.
Benjamin shrugged his shoulders, and there was nothing to worry about.
"So~" Zach raised his eyebrows and gently cut into what he wanted to say, "You're just coming back to sign these documents?"
"Hehe, do you want it so much? That's okay, I'll leave when I'm done. ”
The corners of Zack's mouth twitched, and he glanced at Benjamin, not bothering to respond.
"Huh. Well, I just thought it was time to come back, Mokawi has a new interest. Raising an eyebrow, almost ostentatiously, he raised his chin at Zack, "It's too easy for me to distract her by continuing over there." ”
You've probably seen some romantic movies where the hero and heroine are doing something that requires concentration, and then there's a fight between the two of them, pushing and shoving, and finally a dialogue like this -- "You're getting too distracted here!"
That's what Benjamin is showing off now.
Zach crooked his mouth, almost knotting his thoughts, forgetting what he wanted to say, "New interests." Zach couldn't even look at Benjamin's ostentatious face for a second, his head down, signing papers.
"yes, didn't you get it? Benjamin didn't care about Zach's personal psychology in the slightest, "Amilia, the ghoul's girlfriend. ”
Zach frowned, it was worth breathing a sigh of relief that the use of Emilia's professional agitation method worked, but at the same time he was a little worried - hey, now that Zack wants Benjamin to be by Morkave's side, Zach really can't predict if Mokawi will do something bad to Emilia, and Zack needs Benjamin to watch Mokawi over there. The first time Zach asked Harrison, he told the truth that this is a gamble, isn't it.
"Don't worry. Benjamin closed the document in front of him, finally signed it, and began to stretch his arms, "She promised me that she would not do anything to Emilia. ”
Zach also closed the signed paperwork and looked at Benjamin, honestly feeling a little complicated, if he had known that Emilia would be able to bring Benjamin back, he would have done it a long time ago. Now it's the ideal situation - Benjamin is back, and Mokawi is still in the nursing home, which is simply the best outcome. But, why, I just can't be happy!
Once upon a time, there was only one vampire who could give Benjamin a 'guarantee' that would make Benjamin trust 'guarantee', and now there are two, and it is still Mokawi, and Zach has never had one opinion of Mokawi as a 'madman'! The whole situation just can't make people happy.
Benjamin looked at Zack's face, stood up with a smile, and felt the sunlight by the window, "Hehe, tell me the truth, what the hell did Mokawi do to you? ”
"Ugh. Zach didn't know if he was upset that Benjamin was comparing himself to Eve, or if he was upset about Benjamin's motive for asking this -- was Benjamin trying to change Zack's opinion of Mokawi? For what?
Benjamin glanced sideways at Zach again and shrugged, "You, just think too much." "I really know Zack enough, and I actually threw my hands out.
"Where are you going?" Zach quickly sorted out the signed paperwork and chased it out.
"Bask in the sun. ”
Zach gestured to Bane, who was still on the phone in the public room, and followed Benjamin, "Then I don't want to think about anything, from now on, I promise." The childish one had to come with such a reassurance, "I will not care about anything about you and Morkawi anymore." ”
Benjamin just shrugged his broad shoulders in front of Zack, meaning, you don't need to guarantee it, you don't care. However, I still understand that I can't continue to stimulate Zack, this kind of thing is enough to be a little new once or twice, and if it is too much, it will really hurt my feelings, "So, what happened to you and Louise just now?"
"Uh......" was another topic that left Zach speechless, "I did something I couldn't understand, something dangerous, and scared her." ”
"Oh? Benjamin seemed genuinely curious, raised his eyebrows and glanced in Grande's direction, located Louise's location, and watched the soap opera with Ink in the recreation room. What I want to convey is that Benjamin doesn't care at all that Zack has done something dangerous, Zack is still following him, very vivid, and Benjamin is curious about what can scare Louise this woman. Truth be told, Louise wasn't a timid person, and she had a magical ability to lean there when there was danger.
"I was pulled high into the air by Sheila and then fell. Zach replied.
Benjamin raised an eyebrow and looked back at Zach, "How tall?"
"There's not much air to flap Sheila's wings. ”
Benjamin opened his mouth and looked at Zach again, "Then, you fell." "And then, here you are." "Complete.
"Yes. Zach nodded, "Don't ask me how I felt, I can't remember what I was thinking or feeling now, the only thing I remember is that I was very confident." ”
"Can you do it again?" Benjamin raised his eyebrows, as if expectantly, "I want to see it." ”
"No, I'm pretty sure one more time, I'm going to die, so, no. ”
"Oh. It's a pity. Benjamin leaned and fell into the hammock, shaking his hand at Zack, meaning, shaking.
Zach pouted, "But you might still have a chance to meet, I think I know what's causing it." ”
Benjamin adjusted his position in the hammock, the laziest and largest of the floors, pressing the hammock's network cables as if paralyzed, while Zach pushed and shook the hammock beside him. It's a picture of the quiet years, and you may not know that before the start of this year, the vampire and the alpha don't know how many boring bright days Grande spent in this kind of picture......
But their topic is not quiet at all, with ridicule.
"Did it cause you to be alive now, or did it cause you to run and fly with Sheila?"
"Both. Zach was a little speechless Benjamin's lack of seriousness, but also way, this is Benjamin, he has this attitude towards everything, "Eve made a new 'medicine', I tried it, it eliminated a certain feeling from me, and then it was like that." ”
"Heh, are you 'hi' again? Is it any different from 'Val Mina'?" Benjamin actually smiled and clapped his hands, "Hehe, you have to give me some too." ”
Zach glanced at Benjamin, and remembered that the first time he accidentally ate 'Valmina' was Benjamin, when Benjamin fell directly into a dream and started attacking Zack, so it was a joke, "Seriously, Benjamin, I didn't understand what was missing in my feelings at the time, and now that I think about it, I guessed what the feeling I was missing was, and it wasn't funny." ”
"Okay. Even though he was asked, Benjamin still shook his head not very seriously, "So, what's missing?"
"Souls, my corrupt souls, the 'rotten souls' that faith gives a vampire definition. Zach was unexpectedly calm, "Without this thing reminding me of what I am, I lost my sense of myself......"
Benjamin probably didn't know what Zach was talking about, and completely digressed, "You can feel your soul, what does your soul feel? soft, hard, sticky, slippery......"
"Uh, no. Zach looked at Benjamin's curious face speechlessly, "You can't expect a human to tell you what it feels like to breathe, unless you give him a situation where he can't breathe and make him compare, and then after that, he will forget the feeling of breathing, because that's breathing, it's there, once a person can breathe, he won't feel anything, he will start breathing." ”
Benjamin blinked, "So, what do you mean? Eve's new 'medicine', take it out for the time being, uh, cover your soul alive?"
Zach raised his eyebrows, stopped shaking Benjamin, and was stunned for a moment, "Yes! That's what I want to say!"
"Well, that's a good thing? The ultimate for you vampires is not to completely rot your soul and die, and liberate your eternal body......"
The corners of Zach's eyes twitched, "Now that you mention it, I think of something I thought about before I took off with Sheila, and I pour, uh, don't think, that's a good thing......" (To be continued.) )
