Sending guests off is a very difficult thing.
First there were two police detectives. Coulson almost dragged James out. While dragging him, he said, "Don't embarrass yourself here! Why are you still here? Zach has already made his position clear..." Zach What's the statement? It's the phrase 'You have a good partner, James, goodbye', "What else do you have to say!"
James did want to say something to Zach, but Coulson would never know, and forced James into the car, "Goodbye Zach, I will reason with him!"
"Thank you for your hard work." Send the two off.
Then came Ms. West, who was much more civilized. "I'm really, really sorry." This apology has two meanings. One is that Grande came here when she was obviously involved in other things, and the other is, That's Lyon.
"Don't be sorry. I just hope you gain something from coming here." West was brought by Madison to inspect 'Madison's Pressure', right~
"Oh! Yes. Bain (wife) said a lot of things about Grande. We all have experienced people, and life is not easy." Regarding Grande, Bain's wife said no. It needs to be recounted, so you can guess it - starting from the Hermann factory explosion, Grande began to accept these poor workers, and from then on, Grande, as an employee's family member, saw various changes. I still remember what Zach once said to Kate, who is now James' girlfriend, "As a member of the funeral industry, Grande has experienced so many things that have changed the face of the funeral industry this year. You, a reporter, wouldn't have been here to record the funeral industry." What if the changes have only come now? It’s the same summary. Naturally, everything Bain’s wife said was good.
Ms. West also gave a summary, "I guess Madison is just putting pressure on himself. He doesn't want the mill he manages to hold back the rapid and good changes of Grande."
Zach raised his eyebrows and accepted this conclusion that was far away, but he had to admit it - except for the opening of the earliest mill, the mill really did not participate in the various changes in Grande, the combination of cremation and traditional rituals, The security and insurance of the funeral industry becoming a private industry, cooperation across funeral homes, and even the city government's review of the unfair competitive environment in the funeral industry are all aimed at Grande and have nothing to do with the mill. Change is the Grande, the mill, being dragged and carried.
Zach responded to West who made this conclusion with a smile, "Thank you, we should talk more when we have the opportunity. You reminded me that I should know more about the worries of my employees." Zach was talking about Madison, naturally. It's true. Zach originally only thought that Madison was worried about the alien race, but it seems that it's not just the alien race. We know that Madison has always been very serious about his work.
"You are a good boss, I can see that." Ms. West concluded again, and then continued to apologize, "I'm sorry, Leon..."
"He's fine, just a little scratch. Ask Madison. He knows that this employee has always been so fond of acting." With that said, Zach pushed out Leon, who had a patch on his hand and his eyes were a little confused. " The 'break' is over, Madison, and it's time for you to return to the mill."
Sending away three, no, four, Zach felt that the cat in West's arms should also be counted.
The 'guest' we know is probably gone, but there is still one. Newly arrived, three funerals for the Ford business. I made an appointment and it will be settled quickly at noon today, right
It seemed that the three groups of people came directly from their workplaces. They did not dress appropriately and did not show due respect. From that moment on, they were urging Grande to hurry up and do what they paid for.
"If you are in a hurry, just go to the cemetery and wait. If you don't want a ceremony, you can save the hearse with the honor guard. We will send the body to the cemetery immediately. Please be patient." Pointing to the west.
After sending away these three groups of people, Zach was really done. Well, Zach was not interested in accompanying him, so he told Sam, who was now considered the lowest status in Grande, to watch the workers who were unloading the coffin. Neither Louise nor Benjamin wanted to go.
The meeting office replied to Ford, reminding the other party to transfer money, and he easily left Grande, walked south, and found Bumi.
While Zack is dawdling on the road, let’s explain why Zack looks for Bumi like this when he doesn’t even know where he is.
On the way back to Grande from the North District, the two vampires did not waste time and discussed in the car how to deal with Toledo, the Sabbat. So I have some ideas -
Remember when Zach and Benjamin were sparring, they mutilated themselves, spreading their own blood in the space, and then using the perception of their own blood to locate the enemy's movements. At that time, Benjamin said that Zach was cheating, right? How could the real situation be so beautiful? Could Zach have spilled his own blood all over Barton
So Bumi gave a temporary solution that was not a solution, using Nofele's blood. After all, Nofele had many people. But covering an entire city? Don't be kidding, Anthony won't agree. Uh, why wouldn't Anthony agree? Because the wool comes from the sheep, and Nophele's blood must be sucked from people...
Therefore, it can only be regarded as a temporary method. Until there is no better way, Zach can only re-hone his perception of the bloodline of his old partner.
Under the midday sun, Zach frowned and felt the traces of blood left by Bumi, and walked towards a streetlight beside Route 27.
Bumi was really considerate. She must have felt sorry for Zach to be searching around like this in broad daylight, so he left a small gift for Zach, a 'movie mark'.
Nophele's bloodline gives Nophele the ability to control shadows. We have seen it many times. Bumi and Dora can pull the shadows of other things at will, or wrap themselves up to 'invisible' their bodies, or just Just throw it around and play... Don't think too magically, to put it simply, it is the definition of shadow - a place where light cannot reach.
Don't think of the shadow as an entity, something that can be picked up and put down. That's the definition, and it cannot be illuminated. Novel, he just borrowed this area where the light could not reach and covered himself with it. If there is no light, it will naturally not be seen.
Then there is this so-called 'shadow mark', where Novel borrows the shadow of something, or puts a shadow where there shouldn't be a shadow. If you look carefully, you can find these abnormal things.
For example, now Zach saw the shadow of a street lamp that should have been huddled in the midday sun, but actually pointed diagonally to the southwest, so he knew that Bumi was heading to the southwest.
Zach wiped away the dried dark red that was smeared on the rusty light pole, and walked southeast when the shadow returned to normal.
Yes, in the southeast, Zach is not prepared to be kind to himself. This is a training, so naturally he cannot think about relaxing. The little pain now is nothing compared to the future life that will affect whether his 'eternal life' can last forever.
Don't be sarcastic and say that Zach has Alice, and doesn't he have a death prophecy that guarantees his life, but is it useful? Yes, Zach might be able to defend against the first fatal attack by relying on that death scene, but what about the second one? Did Alice convert the images in her eyes into words and shout out to remind Zach to hurry up, or did Sabbat Toledo's second attack come faster
If you have no idea about this kind of thing, go find someone who hates you, provoke him, and see which one is faster if you say, "We have something to talk about," or if the other person's fist flies towards your nose.
It has been emphasized many times that Zach and Sabbat Toledo-Eli Toledo have nothing to say. Even if Papa comes at midnight, Zach can make a few remarks and distract the other party. Attention chips. What Ian, what Alpha Revanch, this is not easy to come by, but, Sabbat Toledo, Zach does not. Once contact occurs, Zach may not even have a chance to look at Alice. If he does, it may be Zach's last farewell.
Hey, it's also the most important thing. Zach can't leave, to be more precise, escape from Barton, at least not now.
Therefore, Zach did not want to waste this little training.
"Do you need some water? You look like..." A not-too-concerned voice interrupted Zach's perception. Southeast of Route 27, there lived Siris and, uh, Brielle, whom Zach couldn't communicate with. It was Burrell who was speaking now, "Hao Bai, are you going to die?"
"No, I don't want to die." Zach glanced sideways at the woman and began to turn, heading west honestly. Briar was not the grind Zach wanted.
Brielle followed, "Or do you need some blood?"
Well, this woman managed to make Zach care. He curled his lips and glanced at Brielle, "Thank you, but no..."
"You're welcome, I won't give it to you. I just came to visit my aunt. I'm suffering from a lack of blood right now, so I don't have anything extra to give you."
Zach almost gasped, pursed his lips, and looked around. If there was no one around, Zach would start running. But it was a little embarrassing. Someone, the farmers during the autumn harvest, pointed in this direction simply, "Hey, isn't that the master of Grande and the crazy woman from Sires..."
Not giving Zach any breathing room, "Can you hear what those people are saying? They are pointing at us. I don't like being pointed at."
"Then don't come with me." Zach decided directly. It would be great if Siris was here, Zach could have a normal person to 'control' him, and he could let Siris pull this guy by casually acting out the rejection of an ordinary person with abnormal mental state - the normal maliciousness of normal society. Woman goes home.
"Where are you going?" actually prompted a question, but he was not very obedient and still followed Zach.
Zach stopped in front of a pile of haystacks in the field, which should be a resting place for farmers. Zach tilted his mouth and pointed at his feet, "Did you see anything unusual?"
This was obedient. Briar looked at his feet, and saw a dark red side. The shadow turned sideways to the west, contrary to the instructions of the sunlight above his head.
"The shadow is wrong." Rimel took away the blood-stained hay, crushed it in his hands, threw it away, and continued, "You should tell those Nofils not to throw things away."
Zach frowned and continued to move forward. The reason for his frown was - "You know a lot."
"Well, Mokavi and I are friends. We talk about everything..."
Well. We have actually seen the dialogue between these two magical women, Mokavi and Brielle, and it was so imaginative. Keeping up with the conversation between the two of them is simply a torture, but it can really be summed up as "talking about everything".
"...I accepted your suggestion and went to the nursing home to see her." You would think that Brielle was going to tell Zach about Mokawei's current situation, no, "I thought that it was renovated after the fire. , the result is still the same, I hate that place, especially the stairs, which are in circles, you think that the stairs can keep rotating like that without limit, but it turns out that the bottom is the annoying underground confinement room, and the top is anyway The sky that cannot be touched no matter how high it is..."
Although he recalled the special patio-like structure of the nursing home, Zach had to interrupt. Toledo didn't like the communication that he couldn't control, "Why are you wandering around alone outside, where is Sires? He's not worried about you. What?"
"He's very busy, Harvest." The answer was concise, "I'm bored. Can I ask you something? I want to confirm it."
'No' was on Zach's lips. But why bother, hey—
"I can't become like Yuehua Baiying, is it true?"
"No, you can't." Zach pouted.
"I think my grandmother's grandmother, um, my grandmother, is an Indian. Isn't this okay?"
Ugh, what does this woman think of a banshee? Zach was speechless and didn't want to find out where this question came from. But we do.
When Brielle and Mokawi first met, Mokawi asked Brielle if she would like to become her. He also showed off the capabilities of the thirteen clans. But Briar refused, on the grounds that "my friend has more powerful abilities." Yuehua and Baiying's prediction of death (saved Siris' life).
"No." Zach emphasized.
"Oh." Brier lowered his head, "One more thing, what does blood taste like?"
"The taste of blood." Either repeated or answered, Zach was trying to speed up his pace at human speed.
"Sweet? Salty? Bitter? Sour? I hope it's sour. I like sour. It always makes me appetite."
Zach looked sideways at Briar without stopping, just looking at him. Zach didn't quite like the implications of what he heard. Why Brielle is hoping for what the taste of blood is, considering that she has just confirmed that she cannot become a banshee, it is already clear.
"Last question." Brielle jogged two steps and caught up with Zach, "What if I don't want immortality anymore? Can I turn back into a human?"
"No, you can't." Zach pursed his lips and replied, "One way." Inexplicably, Zach thought of Tam's No. 2, hoping that these humans would realize the meaning of 'one way'.
"Okay." Burrell stood still.
Zach walked for a while before looking back at Briar who was looking at him.
Zach didn't have any masochistic tendencies. He straightened his head and looked straight ahead, speeding up his pace again. The destination has already appeared in the perception - the fake farm that was used to give boring people in the North and West Districts a taste of country life is now the farm of the inheritor couple. Bumi really chose a convenient place. (.)
