4 Stop-and-go motorcycles
Zach wasn't too surprised by the speed of Cyrus's alarm, and after waiting boredly at the mill for a while, there was movement at the police station - it was not the first time that Brill had run away so willfully, and every time he could make inexplicable friends, the Black Witch's Moonlight Hundred Shadows, Mokave. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Cyrus should also learn a lesson.
But Zach was quite surprised that the person who came out to handle the case was actually a detective-level Wes. It just so happened that Zach had a question to ask this James' friend, indirectly about Mokawi.
Weis's motorcycle went directly south on Route 27, and he should have gone to Cyrus's house to understand the situation first, and with a sigh, Zach sat directly in the back seat and knocked on Wes's helmet, "Good morning, detective." β
The forward motorcycle made a serpentine evasion action on the road, and a tail swing stopped on the side of the road.
"Zack, Zack!"
"Scaring you?" Zach laughed.
"Uh...... You're looking for me?"
"Sort of, you're going to investigate Brill's disappearance, right?"
"How do you know? Uh, don't tell me. Wes restarted the bike and handed a helmet to Zack, "Do you have any information?"
Zach didn't put on the helmet right away, but held the helmet and sniffed, "It smells like Jason, does he usually use it?" "The body in the back seat swayed as the speed of the bike 'jolted'.
Seeing that the face exposed under the helmet of Rives in the rearview mirror began to turn red, Zach smiled and didn't ask, honestly put on the helmet, and then spoke, relying on shouting, "Mokawi is gone." β
"What?"
"I knew that Brill had plans to become a descendant of Mokawi, so after knowing that Mokawi had disappeared from the sanatorium, I called Brill's house, and sure enough, Brill was gone, and I came here to wait for Cyrus to call the police. β
After waiting for a while, Wes didn't speak, but the eyes in the rearview mirror were full of complicated speechlessness.
Zach continued, "I didn't expect you to come out. Exactly, lest I be sneaky. β
After the sound of the wind pouring into the helmet lasted for a while, Wes chose not to be silent anymore, "No one in the bureau wants to pay attention to this report, and it often happens that Cyrus reports that her fiancΓ©e is missing, and she usually goes back by herself after a few hours." β
Zach raised an eyebrow in the back, "Oh~ Then why did you come out?"
"When the O'Neill Fury suicide happened in the nursing home, I met Dr. Browning (Amilia). Wes's face was clearly visible in the rearview mirror, "We talked for a while, as people who all knew about the existence of aliens. β
Zach curled the corners of his mouth and didn't say anything. These people who all know the same secrets, and it's not a bad thing to communicate with each other.
Wes continued, "She spoke of some concerns about Mokavi, who she said mentioned Brill in their treatment more than once. said that Brill was very liked by her and was her favorite 'person'. And because Brill was from the Southside, Dr. Browning asked me to pay attention. β
Zach was a little surprised here, "Emilia is going to tell you about her patients?"
Wes glanced back at Zach and replied. It means 'the ancestor of the Thirteen Clans, Mokawi, is a patient, you vampire said it, I didn't say it'.
"Look at the road. Zach understood, smiling and shaking his head, "Don't be so careful, Mokawi doesn't care about this kind of thing, she is still proud of her mental state, after all, that is what makes her special about being a Thirteen Clan." β
Wes pouted, not responding.
"Then you're really concerned, Cyrus called the police, and you came out. Hehe. Zach continued to smile, "But Brill and Mokawi disappeared together, I'm afraid that what Emilia and you feared is going to happen, as I said at the beginning, I know that Brill has plans to become a descendant of Mokave." β
The motorcycle slowed down and stopped on the side of the road again. Wes took off his helmet, didn't tidy up his messy hair, turned his head with a complicated expression, and looked at Zach who was still in the helmet, "Can I ask you something? I want you to answer me truthfully." β
"Okay, you ask. As a sign of seriousness, Zach also took off his helmet and looked directly at Wes.
"What are we to you?" Wes asked, but he turned his head, deliberately avoiding the rearview mirror, and pointed the back of his head at Zack, "Human, to you, alien, what is it?"
Zach raised an eyebrow, speculating on the meaning of the question, "You need to be more specific, after all, I don't need to whitewash anything for certain races, for them, humans are just one of the food." β
Although his back is to Zack, the hairs standing up at the junction of the back of his head and neck have betrayed this detective who deliberately hides his emotions.
Zach added a smile to his words, "I said something, and most of it wasn't. For example, the soul alien race, the soul alien race all rely on human beings to exist......" Zach realized that what he said was too absolute, "of course, excluding ...... like ink"
But, Wes, apparently, asked this kind of question, hmph, not for Zach to answer comprehensively and meticulously. So it was interrupted.
Wes waved his hand, "Forget it, when I didn't ask." Begin to bring back the helmet, "Sit down and hit the road." β
Zach was obedient, but also naΓ―ve like a persistent child, and when the bike started again, "Sorry, that's really hard to answer." Well, I'll give you a complex example, me. β
The motorcycle was accelerating evenly and soon reached the top. Well, this speed really failed the oil burning in the engine. Wes was listening.
"You could just think that vampires use humans as food, and I'm okay with that. "Well, what kind of nonsense is this? A vampire should say to a human? "But what's special is that humans don't ask a fat dinner that's being fried in fat when they're frying steaks, 'Hey, do you want to be one of us, don't be fried in the future, go fry your own kind?'"
Give Wes time to react to the steak metaphor that makes it impossible to face it any longer. Zach continued, "Another complicated thing is, I, the vampire is immortal. Hehe, most of the time, I myself think this is a good thing, but have you seen a tree that has lived for a hundred years and a thousand years, and what has it done for your own people?"
Sensing Wes in front of him move, Zach knew that the other party was thinking, so, "No, it's alive until circumstances make it unbearable." Maybe the forest has been cut down, maybe the sky doesn't rain anymore, maybe heh, it's just a squirrel that has a hole in it. The only people who do things for their own race are races whose lives are not eternal, such as human beings. Life is limited, so we want to live better, and only non-immortal species will have this need, but we don't. β
Wes spoke at this point, "You can heal yourself. β
"That's my point of view, even if a vampire, I, like a tree, do nothing, don't care about anything, I'll be alive. Even if the forest is gone, even if there is a drought, even if someone hurts, the vampire will live. We can heal ourselves, vampires, more eternal than trees, and we don't need to make any changes to the world. We don't need to turn forests into predators, we don't need to build reservoirs before droughts, and we don't care if a squirrel or two crawls on us. Then, another question arises, if I don't have to do anything, I will live forever, why should I live?"
Metaphysical philosophical questions? No, practical questions, Leo. The gatekeeper of purgatory, who was once created by God, is a tree that does nothing, does nothing. A piece of non-foaming soap can make him angry, so why live?
"Fortunately, I'm not a tree, and I still need to do something to live, and there are two options for what I need to do, one is to waste the human form and live outside of civilization like Gangero. The other is right now, and I'm talking to you, another species in this world, a race that has been changing the environment of the world, humans. β
"You mean to say. Wes's tone was uncertain, with irritation that didn't know where it appeared, "Vampires exist on the basis of humans. β
"Exactly. Even the descendants of Gangaro came out of the human race, not to mention other vampires. And then there's the world we're in, how shall I say that? Well, vampires didn't invent electricity, they didn't invent cars, they didn't invent these. Zach tapped on his helmet, the helmet for safety, "We're so 'powerful' that we don't need to 'invent' anything." But in order not to waste this form, we are mixed with you, we do not invent, we only enjoy. Ten years, a hundred years, no matter how you interpret what I'm about to say - we intend to continue to enjoy all that humanity has to offer in this way, for the sake of our descendants, for the sake of food, for the sake of eternal life. Do you understand? β
Wes really didn't know what to say, and his mood reacted to the speed of the car and slammed the throttle.
"I said, complicated. Zach concluded, "The bloodsucking worms that are attached to humans deliberately scandalize the symbiotic relationship, Anthony and James have made such summings. You can agree, I'm okay with that. β
It should be Zack's posture, this attitude of not shying away from and having no opinion, so that Wes couldn't hold back, and continued to speed up at the same time, "So that's what you mean?!You make descendants! It's what you did among the human race, uh, a 'favor' to us?!" There is an explanation-"After all, this is a matter for you not to treat us as food, nor to sit back and enjoy the fruits of our labor!"
Zach shook his head, "No. If you're concerned about vampires making people into descendants because of Brill's business, I have to warn you that you're asking the wrong question. β
A pure emotional 'tsk' was buried in the wind.
It's okay, Zach heard, "But it's not a bad thing, after clarifying the relationship between vampires and humans, looking at the matter of vampire descendants, you will have a more, well, objective view." For example, you could ask James if he would like to be my descendant if I had such a special relationship with him. β
Well, there are some things that I really can't get tired of. With another tail flick, the bike stopped to the side of the road, and Wes looked back at Zach, "Did you ask??"
"No, he doesn't deserve to be Torredo, so I've never given him the impression that 'he can be a vampire'. Zach looked directly at Wes, "You don't have to worry about having so many vampires with Barton right now, and there are other people who want to make him a descendant." I can tell you responsibly that there won't. At least thirteen clans, he can't meet the standard of vampire descendants of any clan. β
"What??Do you still have a standard for choosing your descendants?!" It's really great, to be used as food, but also to consider whether this piece of meat is fat, to be regarded as a descendant, and to be a standard??As the race that has changed the world the most, where is the self-esteem of human beings?
"Of course there are standards. Zach looked into Wes's eyes behind his helmet, "Immortal, time doesn't let the nasty guy die, should a vampire tolerate the person who lives with him as a nasty guy he can't get used to and can't share his values." β
The corners of Wes's eyes twitched, and now was probably not the time to discuss Zack's dislike of James's kind of people - well, we should understand, if we are used to it, we need to be trained - we need to teach James to be truly just, we need to make James realize that aliens are also part of the city? After all, there was only one reason why Zack saved James, they needed a character like this, and James played it well. Valuing and being accustomed to seeing are two different things.
So my answer is no, it's not a favor, it is. Zach paused, "Request, people who share the same beliefs, would like to live forever with me, with the vampires." Do you think such a serious commitment is a blessing? β
There is an analogy that is degraded in time, in content, well, equal, 'whether rich or poor, whether healthy or sick, until life and death separate us'.
Zach shrugged, "Even if it's a favor, it's not from the vampire, it's the one above." Pointing to it, "It's just that 'it' doesn't seem to be there lately, but don't worry, vampires will live forever after all, and 'it' will always witness it." β
Wes's face loosened, his whole body slackened, probably completely unsure of how to respond...... Not to mention a response, you can't evaluate. Isn't it good to be an ignorant, hundred-year-old ordinary person, why ask such a thing!
Wes turned around and restarted the bike again, "Don't talk to me about this stuff again......"
"That's it. Zach looked relaxed, "I hope you're at ease, hehe." How could Zach not know the reason why Wes suddenly asked these questions-"You don't have to worry about vampires turning people into vampires at Barton will become the norm, Brill is a special event." There is no need to worry about how the alien race views human beings, the world is like this, when you don't know, everyone is so alive, you know, it's the same. Nothing has changed. β
How easy it is to say, nothing has changed. I hope that everyone has the consciousness summed up on the stop-and-go motorcycle.
By the time Wes reacted, the helmet had already been put back in the back box, and Zach had already avoided it in advance.
