18 Farmsteads

After going around in a circle, Zach was a little confused, he couldn't sense where Bumi was at all. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Ugh. Zach said into the air, "Didn't you say I'd play the role of Devil Torrey first, why are you getting into the groove so quickly?"

"It's the same. Linda sat cross-legged under the porch, leisurely flipping through the magazine, "Tempo Toledo won't let you perceive him, and he won't perceive you." Zach answered, "With the use of shielding perception at the same time, this is what you're really going through. ”

Zach accepted, ready to walk towards Linda, just raised his step, frowned, and walked around the land in front of him - there was a trap there, what Zack didn't feel exactly, but it seemed to be the stuff of the wizards' gang. It seems that Nophil's alliance with the wizard has brought some benefits to both sides.

A 'tsk' from nowhere briefly revealed Bumi's location, but by the time Zach looked in that direction, Bumi had lost track again. Zach was speechless, leaned over to Linda, and tried to put on a smiling face, "After the wedding, I haven't seen you since then, are you still used to living in Barton?" ”

Zach doesn't know how Bumi 'borrowed' the inheritor's farm as a practice site, and Zack's own knowledgeable side makes him feel that he should have a good relationship with his master.

"It's okay, it's no worse than Lylie. Linda raised her eyes and smiled at Zack, "At least I'm married, and my husband is still alive and well." ”

It's kind of interesting, the comparison example given by Linda is actually the enchantress Lylie, instead of Darcy and Kozil, who are also sent by the Demon Feast. They are all smart people, so they should be able to understand that this is what it means to express their position.

Zach raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Where's Cliff?"

Linda stretched out her finger and pointed to the ground, "In the office." ”

Office ?underground?

Oh. Yes, at the wedding party, it should have been made clear that this farm is not a real farm, but a resort rented to people in the west and north to experience life in the south district. It's Cliff's property, but it's not Cliff's home. Just like a service station in a hotel, Cliff has an office here that is ready to respond to guest requests.

Zach nodded and entered the house.

Obviously feeling the light and shadow in the room distorted, Zach pouted, "I agree with your pursuit of truth, but it can't be like this, you know that if I play the Magyan Torredo, who has already stood within the scope of Grande, I will not continue to control blood and block perception." I'm going to make sure that the goal of the Magnum Toredo is on me and not the rest of Grande. Zach was really helpless, "So if you're going to play me, you should show up now, be ready to defend, protect the others." ”

After no one answered Zack's silence, it was Linda's laughter outside the door, "Hehehe, you shouldn't reject Bumi's approach, if you are playing the enemy now, you should attack me, I don't mind playing your Louise, and then playing your Bumi will naturally appear~"

Zach tugged at the corners of his mouth, "Wait until I've said hello to Cliff first." ”

"Hehe, you're free. ”

"Say hello. Zach stressed into the air and went to the basement.

Before Zach could say anything, he was met with a 'tsk!' and Cliff completely ignored Zack's face and continued to write and draw at his desk.

There was probably no room for politeness, Zach stood next to him and looked at the notebook in front of Cliff for a while, and gave an apologetic look quite sincerely, "Sorry, it seems to have caused you trouble." The notebook is the farm's appointment schedule, and Cliff is pushing back the most recent appointments. Zach's apology was for Cliff's financial losses.

Cliff ignored it and picked up the phone, presumably to inform the customer.

Completely like he had nothing to say to you, Zach pursed his lips and consciously prepared to leave.

"This is xx farmstead and I'm sorry to inform Mr. Smith that his appointment here has to be postponed......"

Zach raised an eyebrow and turned to look at Cliff who was calling.

"Okay, I can wait. Cliff held the earpiece without any expression.

Zack's shoulders stiffened, and he glanced sideways at Bumi, who had half a finger stuck in his neckline, shoulders and neck, a little incredulous, "Really, I said hello, can't you wait." ”

Incredibly, Bumi, probably on purpose, didn't pull out his fingers, "What! Isn't this over, what are you still stunned about! Show your instant memory erasure! Mine hasn't penetrated your ...... yet."

The corner of Zack's eyes twitched, and after a touch of red covered his eyes, his body shifted for a while. Some of them were speechless and clutched their red-dyed necklines.

Bumi: "What are you stunned about! show your ......" Stunned for a moment, his eyes moved from the empty front to Zack, who was already unhappily pulling at the collar, and glared, "Lord! invincible! How did you do it! I think my time was 'stolen' by you for a second!"

"You two, be quiet!" Cliff yelled as he clutched his earpiece, then took a deep breath, "Mr. Smith, I'm sorry for your appointment......" Zach was healing himself, and Bumi was licking his fingers, but it was really quiet, "...... Sorry, Mr. Smith, double payment won't work, I, my side...... Sorry sir, I really ......"

Zach pursed his lips and patted Cliff, meaning the earpiece to him.

Cliff looked annoyed for a moment, but still handed out the earpiece.

"Get me a clean shirt, please. Zach at least said please, put the earpiece to his ear, and after hearing Smith's impatient voice, "Smith, it's me, Zach." ”

"Zach?" said it was more of a surprise than a fright, "how did you ......"

"I am the reason why your appointment was deferred. Zach was very direct, glanced at Cliff, who was not ready to get his shirt, and blocked the microphone again, "Please." Then to Bumi, "I have the information from Darcy in my blood, go up there and wait for me." ”

Seeing that the two of them finally moved, and then let go of the microphone, "I'm sorry, Smith, I have some personal matters to deal with, how about letting me go to this farm during this time?"

"Uh...... Do you need help?"

This was unexpected...... Smith's first instinct was to ask Zach if he needed help.

"Hehe, thanks, but no. "I hope it won't disrupt your affairs because of me." ”

The earpiece laughed twice, "Wait a minute, I'll send someone." Then there was the words that Zack thought he couldn't hear if he covered the microphone, "Lydia, Pyne (Nate's father, the 'star' volunteer at the shelter) has another way to deal with it, get out first, I'm okay now." ”

Zach raised an eyebrow and listened to the smaller female voice in the earpiece, "Uh, do you need to be friends with a funeral owner? When did we West End people fall to this point!" Zach doesn't mind, it only shows that Lydia, as Remer, plays her role perfectly.

Then there was a moment of waiting, and Smith's clear voice came back from the earpiece, "Hehe, my sister, always gives me a headache. ”

Out of curiosity, Zach naturally followed the topic, "Hehe, yes, when I was dealing with the asylum commission, I heard the story of the naming of 0711, and your brother and sister have a good relationship." "Remember, the name of Smith's new phantom limb pain drug (Soul Contraction) is the date Lydia returns to Barton with Eve and Flender.

"Hehe, hopefully. Smith seemed to have something to say, and Zach could clearly hear the breathing between the words - Smith should have felt that his sister was trying to meddle in the Smith family's business. It should just be helpless, "Since you are talking about the shelter, you don't have to worry about the farm causing me trouble." Hehe, I can also tell you that the farm was ordered for Nate's father. ”

Speaking of which, we don't know what happened after Nate was handed over to Mrs. Quinn in a coffin by Zack. We know that it was just James's phone call that Nate was a pawn used by Director Darcy to sabotage Smith and Quinn's asylum, and Mrs. Quinn's arrangement when the investigation of the asylum was first entrusted to Zach - not wanting Smith's drastic handling of the asylum's drug thieves to attract the attention of the police controlled by Darcy.

Leave some doubts aside, progress arises here.

Zach sat down directly in Cliff's chair, "Nate's father, Mr. Pine?"

"Yes. Smith's tone was lighthearted, "To be honest, I wasn't too surprised when Mrs. Quinn brought Nate over with him. Mrs. Quin is right, this director of the New North District is a trouble, and he would actually use this method. It's a pity that now is not the time to fight back, and with the persuasion of Mrs. Quinn, we should now concentrate on the sacrifice, and I should not do anything that will leave a handle, that is, heh, I can't do anything to Nate. ”

Zach raised his eyebrows and began to understand a little, "So, you can't do anything to Nate, you can only use his family to control him, is that what you mean?"

"Ha, I knew you would understand it quickly enough. The receiver smiled, "Nate we have to let go, to make him obedient, the way to obediently use for us is to control his father." ”

The way to control it is to book a holiday farm in the South District?

"Let me guess. Based on what Smith said easily, Zach also easily responded, "The comfort benefits of the shelter for outstanding volunteers?"

"Exactly!" Smith should have been pleased with Zach's reaction, "Half of the wanderers that Mr. Pine has guaranteed have started a new life, which is not to be underestimated. I, Smith, and the Quin Group attach great importance to this kind person who is dedicated to helping others, but he insists on not wanting to be our regular employee...... "Remember this, Harrison wanted to use the staffing to restrain too 'free' volunteers, but Mr. Pine refused, "Then we can only use this kind of benefit to reward him for his hard work and kindness." ”

Zach can still guess something, that is, the choice of this reward land, the farm of the inheritor couple, must be Lydia's idea. Yes, the point is that it's an interracial idea.

Can you find the blind spot here, Linda is the inheritor of the Demon Banquet, and now she is the proprietress of this farm, and Darcy, who is also the inheritor of the Demon Banquet, will not doubt this. It's easy to understand the truth that it's dark under the lamp.

But the guess wasn't going to be said to Smith, what Zach said was, "Sure enough, it still affected." I'm sorry for disrupting your plans because of my personal matters. ”

"It's fine. Smith was still relaxed, "I wasn't very optimistic about such a troublesome thing in the first place. And, huh. The tone became cold, "I don't know if you've heard about what happened early this morning, Liszt's assistant died." ”

I've heard that, or I've heard Director Darcy come to Grande in person, and our Zach, as a funeral owner, is also how can he ......

"I heard that Lance and Detective Cousson are handling this case, and the illegal drug overdose ......" Zack's tone naturally changed with the person on the other side of the earpiece, Smith was cold, and Zach was serious. At this time, I deliberately said halfway to see if Smith would make up for it.

added, "It's not me, it's not Fischer." Smith's tone was a little colder, "We (the West End United) are framing Liszt, not making him a victim. ”

Coupled with Darcy's words of 'choosing the right side' in Zack's office, Zach has seen the connection between things -

First there was Nate stealing Lister's experimental drugs from the asylum, and then there was Liszt's assistant who died of an overdose of illegal drugs after visiting Fisher. What do you think is going on, hmph, I heard what Smith just said, they are framing Liszt and making Liszt a criminal! Now, who made Liszt a victim?

Zach paused slightly, "I'm sure Detective Lance and Detective Corson will do the right thing." ”

Smith picked up a very winding sentence, "Then I'll believe you believe in them." After a pause, a sigh can be heard, "Let's put this matter aside for a while, and wait and see." We'll probably entrust it to you if needed. ”

Zach gave a sigh of relief, then asked, "What about Nate?"

"The farm is canceled, and we have to think about what to do with his father, and if there is a way to control him, we will let him go, which is one more eye and ear on Darcy's side. Now that he is on Quinn's side, Kepler knows him, and it is inconvenient for me to keep people here. ”

As for why Zach asked Nate, remember one of Zach's questions about Harrison, and why Nate was alert to flee early when the investigation at the shelter was clearly carried out in extreme secrecy (Zach accepted the commission from the shelter and never ran into this Nate.) In the end, the arrest at Yuri's manor was still far away, and the other party tried to escape). And why Darcy would have been associated with this Nate. It will be clear later.

"Well, if you need it, contact me. "It's time to say goodbye.

"Hehe, I will, then, I wish you all the best in your private affairs. ”

"Thank you and goodbye. ”

Putting down the phone, Zach looked at Cliff who was standing in the door with a plus-size shirt and pursed his lips, "You should thank me, I helped you avoid being caught up in the battle between the West End and the Demon Banquet." ”

"Tsk, without you, this struggle would not have happened!"

"Without me, you wouldn't have a wife. ”

Cliff looked constipated, yes, Zach won. Let's train in a good mood next~ (To be continued.) )
