What kind of party starts in the morning? A party so big, big, big... so big that you can clearly smell the smell of 'showing off'.
But no matter what Yuri tried to show off, it had nothing to do with the small funeral home in the South District. Well, it had a little relationship, when Laura and the others came to pick them up.
"Hurry! We have to go to Allen to pick up Sissi and the others!"
"Why are you shouting at me?" Zach looked at Laura in confusion. He was just serving as the guardian of Alice and Maya, standing on the back porch and watching everyone meaningfully.
"I don't know, I just want to shout at you!" This girl didn't make any sense.
"You can do whatever you want." Zach didn't want to argue with Laura, "When will you come back?" Yiran, as a guardian.
"That was a party! How do I know when to come back!" Laura rolled her eyes and tugged on her black dress. Maybe the girls had decided on a theme for the party without permission, and it was definitely not the theme the party host wanted—people who didn't know might have thought that Laura was going to a funeral. It’s not that there’s something wrong with Laura’s outfit, it’s that this is the effect they want. Remember the real purpose of these people going to the party~
Laura curled her lips and became a little more impatient, "What do you care about when we come back!" The continuous eye rolls were probably used to cover up something, "Huh! I asked Alice to talk to Teacher Cuisha about someone again. Just have selfish desires!”
Zach's eyes did not linger on the girl's face for long, there was nothing to see, right? Instead, he smiled and raised his eyebrows, "It's not a personal desire. You know that Alice will inherit Grande in the future, haha, family Career~ Of course, it would be best if you could end the party early, talk to Trisha, and see if there is any news from the people in Port Massa~" As if he remembered something, "Don't let Sissi's boyfriend It’s best to follow~”
Since Zach didn't look at Laura's expression, he took it as the other party responded with a roll of his eyes. Zach watched Matthew come out carrying three large bags - party clothes. This very large party included several occasions. Change, let's just assume Lola is fully prepared. Zach glanced at the girls who were already sitting in the car, "Be safe, and then have fun." The old-fashioned guardian asked, "Look after these girls." The latter sentence was addressed to Matthew .
Matthew nodded, unaccustomedly pulled off his formal clothes, and got into the car.
After completing the guardian's final duties, Zach turned back into the house and went directly to the basement, where the 'General' was.
The 'General' actually came yesterday, angry and quite inexplicable. On the day Tam was taken away by Zach, he still had some reason to angrily come to see Zach. It took him a day to come, so it didn't make any sense anymore, right
So, hehe, 'The General' didn't come to Grande for Tam's business, but for—
"I just called Dora again and asked. No is safe. There is already a vampire who wants the Toledo surname to protect him."
The 'General' had just woken up, and his whole body was still as stiff as a corpse. There is no way, Grande is very boring, the best way to kill time is to 'sleep'.
The stiff face and interfering voice could not accurately convey the emotion and tone. 'General' said, "Did you ask what Nuo was doing?"
"No." Zach shook his head, casually grabbed a bottle of blood and handed it to the 'General'.
Believe it or not, after Tam was taken away by Zach, the 'General' actually listened to Mason's message and really stopped his actions against Ax. Then, he had nothing to do... Do you understand,' The general didn't know what he was going to do, so like anyone with nothing to do, he went to find his friends, and guess what? The 'General's' friend is not in Patton. The only reply the 'general' got was from Nuo's fat maid, Myona, "He's not here."
Here, a sad thing happened. The 'General' tried to use the Charming Eyes on Myona, intending to make Myona answer in more detail. However, remember that Zach did not teach the 'General' how to use the Charming Eye. As a result, Miu Na suggested that 'General' go to the hospital to have his eyes checked, "Pink eye is contagious. Well, you shouldn't run around when you are sick..."
So, the final development was that the 'general' came to Grande angrily.
Ignoring the 'general''s resentment that he was not a complete Toledo, Zach told the 'general' Nuo's movements.
"Uh, you don't ask." The general's current state can only be judged by his raised voice to judge his mood.
Zach took it for granted, "Why ask, if he wanted others to know, neither you nor I would find out that he ran to the middle of the country in this way."
"Uh..." The 'General' stopped talking, grabbed the blood bottle, and showed his disdain for Grande's sheep blood with his skewed cheeks.
"Now that it's confirmed that Nuo is safe, it's time for you to return to the southeast." Zach waved his hand towards the door of the basement. You can simply think that this is the owner's way of seeing off guests, or it is not a very friendly way.
After all, from yesterday to now, every few hours, Zach had to call Dora and ask about the situation in the central area for the 'general'. Zach was also quite annoyed.
It’s not that Zach doesn’t care about Nuo, Zach has even promised Toledo’s surname, so why should he care! Zach did what he could and calmly waited for the results. But the 'general' was very unsure, so he only urged Zach to ask. Now that the results have come out, Zach naturally hopes that the 'general' will also disappear and stop bothering him with any unnecessary requests.
"No." 'The General' replied dryly, "Mason and Blitz will be watching over the bar."
Zach frowned, "You want to stay in Grande?"
"Huh, no." The 'General's' stiff eyes were half-closed when he tilted towards Zach. In this weird state, "I'm going to the prison to see Skoll."
A name that hasn’t appeared in a while, Skull, do you remember, the gang of fallen angels, the black professionals. The eldest brother, Skoll, cleverly hid in prison when the southeast was being purged.
Zach's first reaction was surprise, but it soon turned into pure curiosity, "Why?"
"Tsk. My friend (Nuo) is not here, why don't I find my opponent to kill time?"
"Okay." Zach raised his eyebrows. There was no need to worry about it. He turned and walked towards the door. "Take my regards by the way." He really didn't want to chat with the 'General'. This mentality is a bit like a pet that was given away and comes back on its own. You don't want to spend more time with it, you just hope that it will leave voluntarily.
In addition, Grande also has a new guest. Zach was expecting it, but he didn't expect it to be today, Mrs. Quinn.
When she returned upstairs, Mrs. Quinn had already come in and pointed directly at the office on the second floor, "I saw Laura's car driving by."
"Yes, what? Madam, won't you attend Yuri's party?" Zach followed Mrs. Quinn.
"If I want to participate in every event that invites me, huh, I'll just..." He paused, looked back at Zach, and curled his lips, "Porky went, so, huh, I guess I'd better forget it."
Everyone should understand how difficult it is for Mrs. Quinn to be honest with Zach!
"Is it just Pochi? Where's Mu En?" Zach raised his eyebrows.
Mrs. Quinn waved her hands and said something superficially unrelated but actually very relevant, "At home. I heard Bishop will take Riley there, so why are you fighting for this attention?"
Zach continued to raise his eyebrows, "Attention? Did Yuri also invite the media?"
"Of course." Mrs. Quinn shrugged, with a hint of mockery in her tone, "This is the first event Yuri has returned to Barton to host. Do you think it's really just 'inviting some friends to catch up on old times'?" "
Zach tilted his head, "Maybe for little Yuri." That's not what Laura said, and it was also the reason why Kepler, who was not invited to 'reminisce about the past', was sad. Zach then smiled and said, "Haha, wish him good luck."
Some gestures have probably penetrated deep into the bone marrow. Mrs. Quinn, who arrived first, stood at the door of the office. Zach, who was behind, stepped forward to open the door and gestured to come in before stepping in. Then she sat in the very familiar position. "So, what do you want to tell me?" Mrs. Quinn looked at Zach, "About the shelter?"
It was Zach who called Quinn Manor on Wednesday. Remember, it was to obey Benjamin and to find Moon. But after Zach had a better plan and learned that Mrs. Quinn was discussing the shelter with Harrison Smith, Zach changed his original intention and left a message asking Mrs. Quinn to talk to him.
"I want to talk about this." Zach took out a wooden box, opened it, and faced Mrs. Quinn. Inside were several wrinkled and damaged 'cigarettes'. Zack brought it up last night because the 'General' wanted to rest down there. The number is already several more than we have seen before - whoever is sending these things to the witchcraft circle in the basement, 'he' doesn't seem to have any intention of stopping.
Quinn recognized this thing at a glance, and his wrinkled face immediately scrunched up, "Where did you get this?"
'Falled out of thin air. 'This answer is obviously inappropriate, so, "This thing is not very precious, it seems that almost every veteran who goes in and out of the shelter has a bag in hand." It was just a comment on Mrs. Quinn's sudden mood.
"Uh." Mrs. Quinn frowned, "But everyone who gets this new drug has signed a strict exclusivity treaty with us. This thing should not be circulated to the outside world!" Mrs. Quinn pursed her lips and looked. Glancing at Zach, "You probably already know who made this 'smoke'."
"I know, Rimmer." Zach pursed his lips and looked back at Mrs. Quinn, "But I don't understand why. The asylum exists to legalize Smith's private industry, and this, Mrs. Quinn, You know that although this thing is made by Smith, it is not a product made by Smith." Mrs. Quinn knew many things, so Zach was not going to sugarcoat anything and said directly, "This is Rimmer. Eve and Lydia’s product. Madam really feels like promoting this in a shelter platform where the future of the Smith family is at stake, okay?”
Mrs. Quinn adjusted her posture on the chair. She was silent for a while as if she was thinking about it. Then she pursed her lips at Zach and said, "It sounds like you don't want Rimmer's products to be promoted."
"I don't hope." Zach was very direct and his eyes began to drift. "Although I personally have a complicated, uh, relationship with Eve. Even as a former 'friend', I should hope that Rimmer will get better. But , Madam, 'Valmina'? And now this? I must admit that I am very uneasy about what Rimmer makes."
Mrs. Quinn frowned, her eyes indicating agreement with Zach. It had to be, Mrs. Quinn had seen the effect of 'Varmina' with her own eyes. What effect would these 'smoke' have now... But Mrs. Quinn began to shake her head, "You can rest assured, I am doing this." When the thing is put into use, it has been fully understood. Smith has also fully tested it. Tsk." Mrs. Quinn stared at Zach, "This thing should not be touched by you, vampire, so your worries are not there. In the scope of our considerations, do you understand? Besides, uh, I don’t really want to get involved in Smith and Rimmer’s affairs, because no matter how I think about it, they are a family, Lydia? I looked at Li Dia grew up!”
Zach's eyes returned, looked at Mrs. Quinn, and pursed his lips, waiting for Mrs. Quinn's explanation, a serious explanation.
"This kind of 'smoke' was indeed not on Smith's product list before. But now it is. It is a product of true cooperation between the Smith brothers and sisters. Do you understand, Zach? Smith has a great deal of interest in this 'smoke' I don’t expect you to understand his expectations, but he once told me privately that whether he and Lidya can get along well at home in the future depends on how things develop. You can try to understand. "
Zach frowned, then try to understand.
OK, I understand.
Smith was taken advantage of by his sister again - Rimmer's products were originally Smith's competitors, but now they have become Smith's family products in this way, isn't it being taken advantage of by Lydia and Eve? And according to what Mrs. Quinn said, this thing was given by Smith the symbolic meaning of a future where the brother and sister get along well! This means that this cigarette has now become a key product of the Smith family. Well.
"Okay." Zach nodded, "Then, I'm holding this cigarette in my hand now, which means that things are at least not as smooth as you and Smith imagined, right? It shouldn't be circulated outside, I'm enough Not outside enough?”
Mrs. Quinn lowered her head and shook it vigorously, "When you called that day, we were actually discussing this matter. We found that a small batch of these goods would occasionally go missing. We didn't know who took it, and we didn't know who took it. I don’t know if there is a problem in any link, we are each investigating our own people.”
Zach raised his eyebrows, which could explain why Harrison had the opportunity to go to Quinn Manor for a meeting, but at the same time, Zach also felt that he should clarify, "I, probably, probably, should be from Sissi. There… "
"It doesn't matter where you got it from." Mrs. Quinn curled her lips, "You are not the one who stole it anyway, tsk, you are not."
"No." Affirmed.
"That's it. The person who stole the things is still on our side. Our investigation has begun to have no effect. You..."
"Wait a minute." Zach interrupted Mrs. Quinn and curled his lips, "Several children are here. Madam, do you want to avoid them, or do you not care?"
"who?"
"Charlotte, Eve, Judy."
"Uh, avoid it." Mrs. Quinn stood up, "Let Eve come to me. I just wanted to talk to her, but I never had the chance. She can do it, right? Without being discovered?"
"Can."(.)
