15 And it was dawn
Drag it out, who wouldn't. After Mrs. Donna Sr. left, Zach didn't even make an appointment to the hospital to pick up Mr. Donna's body, but in the middle of the night, when it was dark and dark, someone from the hospital morgue took the initiative to call. The guy on duty also made a little joke.
"Hehe, I heard that the funeral has been arranged, when will Mr. Donna be picked up......?
Zach also replied to the 'hehehe' tomorrow, hung up and went back to the basement again, and taught the 'general' a lesson.
That's right, after Grande's guests were gone, Zach had no intention of staying in the warehouse and picking marbles. The situation of the republic, whoever they go, is not something that Zach can influence as an abandoned Torredo who does not belong to any force. You deserve to die.
Then, anyway, if Mr. Donna's funeral was delayed by the client, then Zach would not be active in doing it, but asked Louise to go out and contact the studio to make a display book for Hank Sr.'s coffin. Zack was afraid that this flash of inspiration would be forgotten later, so he arranged to relax early.
Originally, Zach had one more thing in mind, that is, he watched James take Cliff and Eric, who had fainted, and Zach was a little hesitant to remind James what Cliff was, but after thinking about it for about a second, Zach decided not to do much.
The two of them won't have anything to do with each other, and Cliff is barely a harmless thing, so forget it. Of course, that's just Zach's idea. Unfortunately, no one reminded Zach.
Perhaps this is the time to mention Zach's interracial agreement with this Cliff, a 'thing' that he doesn't even think is a living thing. It is the agreement made by the vampire Toledo and Alpha who first came to Barton and visited these alien races in Barton one by one.
That's right, the same one who killed Emilia's boyfriend. The Ghoul Harrison's Protocol.
But don't worry, as we know, the exact content of Zach's agreement with these 'weak' aliens varies from person to person. The only thing that remains the same is the purpose - the safety of the last Toredo to be rewarded by the Hidden Alliance.
So, Cliff, who is known as the Inheritor, was asked of the following by our vampires-
"I was amazed at what I found in such a rural place (when Zach hadn't lived in Grande and, naturally, like most Barton, thought of the Southside as a rural place), was...... Belch. You. Uh, you don't have to run, I don't have any 'interest' in you, but I'm sorry, I'm going to ask you to stay alive while I'm still in this city, I don't want you to spread the news that I'm here after you regenerate somewhere else, you know, live well. Don't put your life in any danger. In exchange, I won't reveal that you're here, but I know that the Demon Feast Alliance is very interested in keeping you in captivity, and you don't want them to know that you're here. ”
It's a threatening agreement, "If my situation is no longer safe, I don't mind selling this news to the Demon Feast to buy me some time." Is there a way to find you after being reborn, you can gamble. (The secret alliance went to the republic in the past two years.) At the same time that cremation became popular, they had not yet left at that time. What Zach meant was that if the Hidden Alliance came to hunt him down, this Torrey. He uses Cliff's news to attract a magic feast, so that the two opposing vampire alliances are pitted, and Zach has time to get out. )
To put it simply, Zach kept Cliff alive because he didn't want him to be reborn elsewhere? So, Harrison's kind of slightly bit of combat power. But tragedy doesn't happen.
It's done.
Finally, Zach went to the basement. Our vampires still care a little bit about what James and the General are talking about in the basement.
After listening, Zach began-
Zach: "You showed James 'Barton's Doxxing,' and why did you ?......?"
Zack: "It's not a reason that James knows a lot about Grande...... 'Patton's Doxxing' is the only thing your last descendant left behind in Patton, it's at my disposal, and you're not qualified to show it to anyone......"
Zach: "On the issue of the Southeast. James shouldn't know more than Cowson, they're partners, and anyone who knows that Falken will eventually track down has the potential to affect the course of things......"
Zach: "Hmph. There is no need to prepare them in advance. I thought you knew Coulson well enough, why don't you want to think about what Cowson will do and what James will do when the investigation starts to point to the West Enders. If there is a disagreement between these two people, who do you think will be the dominant one......"
Zach: "Huh. You know it's the top of the police department that makes the decision. Then I ask you, what's the use of James knowing this in advance? Is it that Curson knows more about the upper echelons, or is this Lance detective who does know a lot of Grande's secrets?......"
Is Zach thinking about James? It seems that yes, though very vaguely, will not be appreciated.
Zach: "You keep saying you're going to get revenge, you're going to go back to the Southeast. Why don't I see your consciousness at all now? I'm pinning my hopes on two detectives to do this for you, 'General', you've disappointed me so much......"
In the middle of the night, I went to answer a phone call. Go on.
Zach: "That's your limit right now? Don't tell me that the red thing in the mirror is what you think you look like...... Don't tell me you're irritable and can't concentrate right now, but did I give you this irritability? You brought it on yourself......"
......
It was dawn, and Zach used one last sentence to end the ongoing mental torture of the 'General', "Go and stand on the back porch facing east." ”
When he went to the kitchen to help Alice prepare breakfast, and met Danny, who was still in a hurry to help, Zach raised an eyebrow, "Julie's (Willie's mother) job, haven't you found it yet?"
"Nope. Danny replied with a frown, then pursed his lips and lowered his head to help Alice prepare the ingredients.
Zach observed Danny's expression, "Say, what's wrong." ”
Danny glanced at Zach with distress in his eyes, "Her job won't be so easy to find." Yesterday I interviewed for a few jobs, and when I was asked about my resume. mentioned that after being fired after working at Bishop Manor for less than a month, no one wanted to hire her. ”
The social environment of the West End, explained. Westside people and people who serve Westsiders. Think about Merry, who hung up, how long she was unemployed after being fired by Smith, and finally got a new job. Hung up......
Zach frowned, he wasn't surprised. Having attended Amanda's (Quinn's) birthday party, he knew very well that the connection between the upper and lower levels of the West End was too 'intimate'. Previously, I only took into account the situation of Bisharp Manor and ignored this problem.
Zach thought for a moment, "Let Riley figure out a way to write a letter of recommendation than Sharp." It should be easier. ”
"That's the best!" Danny shouted a little out of shape, phantom people, ** outflow is not unusual. Anyway, it's someone else's. But immediately, he retracted and looked at Zach gratefully, "Thank you." ”
Zach curled the corners of his mouth, "Nothing. "Take the ingredients from Danny's hand, you go call Riley.
Danny san, who did the lighting, disappeared, apparently happy that he didn't even want to maintain his human form.
A vermilion locket floated past Zack's side. The light and shadow are pushed away, and the ink appears. She looked at where Danny had disappeared, "I'm kind of curious about what he is, a little like me, was he once human, right? Does he have no subject?"
Zach glanced sideways at Ink and said something irrelevant, "Where did you sleep last night?"
"Alice's windowsill. Shounomiya accompanied me on the wall. Ink smiled at Alice and received the same response, she looked back at Zack, "But I wouldn't say it's sleeping, you can think I'm admiring the moonlight." ”
It seems that Zach has decided not to explain what a phantom person is to this alien race with a belief system that he can't even understand. "You like the night?"
"Let's just say that. Mo didn't ask, anyway, if she was really curious, she could ask the Great Dane, "The sun is too intense, too ......abundant," she seemed to be changing her words, "energy ......" she stroked the corners of her soft lips, "It's always a bit of a burden for us crippled things." ”
It was Zach's turn to be curious, and our vampire raised an eyebrow, "Crippled?"
"Oh. Mo chuckled, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows curled slightly behind the silky black hair that fell in front of his forehead, "I'll try to explain, you try to understand." She approached Zack, reached out to Zack, and walked through, "I was born of people. But my life is also accompanied by the passing of a part of the human being, and I am not complete. ”
Zach looked at the other's arm that had not been corroded in the slightest after passing through his body, "You can just say that you don't have a body. ”
The vermilion box didn't know where it came from, and it was held in Mo's hand, "I have it." If you mean the physical objects that exist in this world, this is. She smiled and flipped her hand, and the box vanished, "But, you know, I have no human body." ”
Zach frowned, and he looked at Mo with some confusion, "Didn't you just take your ...... Weakness, is your point tell me?" Zach barely understood, the box was similar to what the Earth Bound was attached to, the thing that kept ink alive.
"yes. Mo still smiled, "Don't think too much, it's not the only one, it can be replaced." ”
Zack's brows furrowed a little, "What do you mean you can change ......" Zach shook his head, "Forget it, I must not understand what you said." "Zach is very sure, please think so. Isn't it? In Zack's mind, if it could be changed, the groundbound spirit should change its name. The sad situation of shadow people, phantom people, and dream demons who are helpless to absorb the sense of existence of others to survive will also be changed......
"You don't have to. Mo smiled and leaned towards Zack, his body did not pass through again, so it turned into a slightly intimate friction, maybe just to show his ability, "There are similar things in the world as we understand it, like the man who was taken away by the police detective yesterday, Cliff, what do you call him? ”
"Stuff. Zach let go of his body slightly, and Mo's ability to manipulate his body at will made Zach uncomfortable, uh, maybe it was just Louise who came in, and glanced at Zach lightly, "He has too many life forms, every rebirth, every life course is too random, it could be a human being, it could be something else, including aliens." We only refer to him as a bearer, which means the experience and knowledge that they carry and accumulate every time they are reborn. ”
Mo Xian didn't care about Zach, but looked at Louise, the same smile, even more intimate, "Thank you for letting me see your closet." ”
"No thanks. Louise smiled back, "If we have the chance, we should go to Liszt Street." "Do you know where Louise's kindness comes from, from the fact that she can see the ink, it's as simple as that. Imagine, if Louise can't see ink, there is an exotic female ghost in Grande, and Zach has a friendly exchange of world cognition, Louise can't see, Louise can't see......
Mo nodded in agreement, "Shougong ......" she paused, "Kim." "For Zack, she can use words that others don't understand at will, Zach can understand, and for others, she still takes care of other people's senses, and it is estimated that this title will change completely sooner or later," described to me Patton, Liszt is a very famous place, I am looking forward to it. ”
Then, Mur returned to Zach again, and the conversation was not over, "Have you ever explored where he came from, and what did his first life journey begin?"
"No, they don't even know where to start. Zach frowned and replied, "There is only a non-stop cycle of birth, death, birth, death, and death." Since it is a cycle, there is no point in pursuing the first time and the origin. "Zach is not a very good communicator, he doesn't seem to be interested in what he doesn't know, trying to end the conversation with facts.
As if sensing Zack's coldness, Mo also smiled and concluded, "It's out of thin air, and we call this kind of thing that appears out of thin air a spirit." ”
Zach would not thank the other party for this knowledge that he should not be interested in, and continued to deal with the ingredients under his hand, and Old Hank was already sitting at the table, about to speak.
Louise raised an eyebrow, "So what is he?" Ginger pointed at Zack, "Over there, what's his name?"
"Blame. Kim is also weird, and Alpha, Benjamin. Mo smiled and said, "I lost my body, and they lost the opposite." ”
Louise seemed interested, "What else?"
"There is another kind, essence, which is born of what exists in this world, but does not lose anything. Like, well, I haven't found out yet. (To be continued.) )
