On Monday morning, the grounded girl still had to go to school. Vertex 23S. Updated the fastest. Alice walked around the Grande, a complete circle, "Good morning Leon... Good morning Logan... Good morning Bane... Good morning Evan..." Everyone understands, and then drove away in the little pink car. Grande.
"Where's Benjamin?" Louise asked Matthew, who had just received his work report.
"I don't know." After he finished answering, he was stunned for a moment, "Where is Charlie?"
Louise raised her eyebrows and looked around the backyard, "I don't know." She waved her hand as soon as she looked thoughtful, "Let's watch the sunrise."
"Oh!" There was joy on Matthew's face, but it didn't last long. He suddenly shrank his neck nervously, "Well, he's not around, I'm so used to it..."
Louise smiled, not knowing where the emotion came from, "Lola and Charlie are both pestering you, which one do you like more?"
Matthew blushed and didn't answer.
A little something that Louise didn't tell Zach over the phone. Because Alice was grounded, Laura and the others spent the weekend in Grande. Becoming friends with the banshee will keep you safe, remember.
I casually flipped through the work report at the mill, and a note slipped out. Louise bent down and picked it up. Of course it was Madison's handwriting, just three words, "I'm sorry."
Louise raised her eyebrows, looked over it several times, shook her head and put it away. There is no need to go to the restaurant, go to the office.
The moment he opened the door, the golden penetrating ceiling fell in the middle of the office, and it was the angel Camille.
"Where is your container? (Ike)" Louise was not surprised at all. This guy has been here several times in the past few days.
"In Paising." Camille's face seemed troubled, "Sissi will stay with Chris these days. At the Allen Funeral Home, Chief Colon of the Southern District Police often goes there to inquire about cases. , it’s not convenient for my container to show up.”
"Oh~" Louise raised her eyebrows to express her understanding. After all, Ike is a friend of Cologne, a friend who is dead. Even if his appearance has changed, it is better to be careful. "Now, Sissi has gone to school?"
"Yeah, so I'm here again." There was no clear action, but there was definitely a sigh mixed in the words, and he floated into a sitting posture, looking at Louise who also sat down behind the desk.
"How is Sissy's mood?" Louise was quite relaxed. She glanced at the newspaper that Old Hank had placed here. The front page was naturally a picture of a successful carnival. "Still angry?"
"Yes, still angry." Camille's voice was actually quite nice, calm and calming, but he himself didn't seem to be very calm. "She didn't understand why Allen would suddenly do such a thing. Neither did Chris. Understand, even if Chris knew about his father Allen's emotional changes after reading the newspaper. But, from Allen's jealousy of Grande to his coming to Grande to kill... uh, there was something, um, missing. ”
Louise picked up Madison's 'sorry' note again, tilted her head, crumpled it into a ball and threw it away.
"There is nothing missing." Louise pursed her lips, because she had explained this many times, "Barton, because you are saints, I will not ask you about the situation." Louise curled her lips. No one dares." Do you still remember Saint Sissy's nickname among her classmates, the 'Girl with a Thousand Pieces'? "So you are the only ones who know the truth. Zach is still alive. I have also said the reason, and Allen knows He learned the truth about Grande. I don’t know what he knew specifically, but at least it was enough for him to shoot Zach and confirm whether Zach was human. Well, nothing was missing, it just happened.”
"No." Camille still looked troubled, "The missing thing is this. How did Allen know? It doesn't make sense. He is just a human, he can't know. Hey, at least Chris won't tell him, Sissi can confirm it. Who is that? Who told him?"
Louise blinked, but still didn't mean to pay much attention, "Then, do you want to find this person?" There was sympathy in her tone.
"Yes, it's a pity..." Camille looked at Louise, "What we know from the police now is that the police confirmed the reason for Allen's visit to Grande, and Chris's testimony confirmed Allen's jealousy, but No one knows what Allen is here for." Camille's tone was a little helpless, "If Allen wants to scold Zach, he can call him instead of coming in person."
Louise hesitated for a moment, "Okay." She gestured to the window and said, "In the warehouse on the south side, there is a pile of hunting equipment that Allen threw at Grande last Wednesday. He is here to recycle it." Louise's face There was a thinking look on his face, "When the police came to investigate, he didn't ask about it, so I didn't mention it." A confirmation look on his face, "I want to protect the new employees of Grande. Please understand that after this matter is over, we don't want to What other complications does this involve, like the city reconsidering Grande's eligibility as a 'community corrections' program." So this is for old Hank.
"Equipment? Hunting?"
"Yes." Louise nodded, "You can go and take a look at guns, traps, weapons for dealing with large creatures, etc."
Camille had drifted away, very quickly, and floated back with a solemn look, "Why does Alan have these things?"
Louise shrugged, and in the small gap when Camille left, she had already started reading the newspaper. There was nothing worth seeing at the carnival. What caught Louise's attention a little was that the Quinn Group mobilized unemployed people in shelters to serve as volunteers for the Barton History exhibition. After the success, there was a financial report linking the Quinn Group's new actions. .
As you can probably guess, Quinn purchased a nursing home on the South Side.
"I don't know." Her eyes were on the newspaper, "Zach mentioned that there was a teacher in Allen's mouth, um, a 'crazy woman', I don't know who it is." Louise took the time to curl her lips. This was a notice. The report did not mention the Quinn Group's policies for handling personnel in nursing homes. Mr. Green's worries were not answered. He held a moment of silence for Green and continued to suggest to Camille, "If you want to check, you should go to Allen's employees. They said they should know something."
The meaning of this is very clear. Although Chris is Allen's son and Sissi's boyfriend, Chris can tell Sissy many things, but after all, this is just a teenager who still needs to go to school, study and train (team) ), falling in love, eating and sleeping... He couldn't possibly know everything that happened in his home, the Allen Funeral Home. If the saints really want to investigate something, they should investigate those who live and work in funeral homes.
"Yes! The police are also suspecting that Allen's men are hiding something. I should..." He changed his mind and returned to his worries, "Can you help..."
"Sorry." Louise shook her head. Is it a reminder, "If it's not convenient for you to possess all the soul marks, why don't you ask the devil for help. They have nothing to do recently." Angels will not possess others at will, like demons, we can arbitrarily obtain the secrets of others. We've already talked about it, right
"Okay." Camille nodded and continued to 'sit' for a while, "Thank you, goodbye." It turned into golden light and disappeared.
After a moment, Phantom Danny floated in. Even though his body was filled with thick gray, it did not affect his facial expression. He was slightly curious, "So we still stick to Zach's instructions to avoid suspicion?"
"Well." Louise continued to read the newspaper, "We will give clues, but we will not participate."
If you don’t understand the meaning of this conversation
"So, Madison's note? Don't we ask? Who is that 'crazy woman'? Don't we ask at all?"
"No, no questions at all." Louise raised her head and glanced at Danny, "Even if we have any guesses, we won't say anything and keep it in our hearts. We will stick to Zach's instructions and not participate. This is the Saint. And Allen Funeral Home, and whoever it is, who is trying to do something with Allen Funeral Home, their business.”
Yes, this is comprehensive enough. Even if you have a guess, don't express it... Don't know how to guess
Who disappeared last Sunday and was found by James at the Allen Funeral Home? It's Kate. Who has been complaining about Allen Funeral Home and blaming Zach for his inaction? It's Madison. Who appears in Zach’s Reasons for Keeping Up with Allen Funeral Home? It’s Sissi the Saint.
Plus all kinds of scattered facts: Kate was the one who knew about the existence of alien races that Zach personally left to James, Madison's friend was a magical woman who made everything she wrote come true, and this inexplicable 'I'm sorry' note .
To know something, you don't need to be personally involved, right? You can get to the truth of the incident by maintaining an attitude of avoiding suspicion and watching quietly.
This is a matter for those three parties, and Grande continues to follow Zach's instructions and not participate.
Danny nodded, "Then I'll go out for a while." He pointed at the gray color overflowing in his body.
Louise grumbled.
Danny also disappeared, leaving Louise to continue reading the newspaper.
It's not something Louise is interested in, but it is related to Grande, the social version, "The owner of Grande and Allen Funeral Home in the South District is missing."
Not only did it have no substantive content, but it also spread false information. The report stated that after the two funeral home owners negotiated a new funeral industry contract, neither returned to their respective funeral homes and disappeared. Southern District Police An investigation team has been established to conduct a close investigation...
Shame on journalism. But, yes, this is the 'fact' that human society needs to know. Zach will come back. As for Allen, who knows if he will come back. Let me put this "facts" here first, and then make follow-up reports depending on the situation, such as an in-depth description of the affairs between Allen and Grande's funeral. Smart reporter.
Louise was about to continue flipping through the newspaper when a guest arrived.
After getting out of the car, Pochquin raised his head and waved to Louise at the window, then stopped going up and started teasing the Great Dane in the backyard. These two guys had a 'deep friendship', remember.
Louise had to go down and looked at Poch, who was facing the Great Dane with a paralyzed face. Poch seemed to be in a good mood, "It's so cold~"
"What are you doing here, Pochi?" Louise leaned directly against the door, crossing her arms.
"Let me inform you that I am your new neighbor in Grande~" continued the one-sided teasing with the Great Dane, "I bought the land to the east of you, and I will build my own home." Mimi said with unclear meaning. He rolled his eyes and lowered his voice slightly, "When Zach comes back, I will look forward to a welcome gift from the warm neighbors."
Louise changed her posture and leaned back, pursed her lips, she had nothing to say, and she didn’t want to think about who was behind Porchi. He was a god, a man with no pretensions at all, who liked to get his hands involved in all kinds of things, who walked in the world and was annoying. God. He knew there was nothing to be surprised about. Why.
"Well, congratulations." Louise was still calm, "I'm finally independent." This was a mockery. Regarding the family structure of people from the West End, there is no independent statement, only iterations of the head of the family. But since the position of the head of the Quinn family is still controlled by the healthy and, haha, Mrs. Quinn, who will probably be healthy forever, Poch has only one way to be independent.
"Thank you, but I will still look forward to the welcome gift when the time comes~" Pochi finally gave up on the Great Dane who had been indifferent and walked towards Louise, "In the next month, construction will continue in the east of Grande. I hope you can understand. For a moment." Surprisingly, there was no inexplicable tone, it was a normal communication.
"That's what you asked for." Louise pursed her lips and looked at Pochi, who was approaching, waiting for him to continue. Some people's common sense doesn't need to be mentioned. After the person has finished speaking, he will say goodbye directly. If not, then it is
"I will manage the nursing home." Pochi stopped next to Louise, his eyes drifting to nowhere, "Grandma thinks this is an 'excellent' arrangement. I am familiar with the environment there, and it will be easy for me to manage it, haha. "
Is it self-deprecating
Louise glanced at Boqi. Since the other party pretended to talk nicely, it would be fine, "Aren't you happy? Then you will be free. And, as you wish, you can do it again next time." If you randomly sign a check from 'Quinn Group', you can cash it." Now Pochi has an industry, right
"This is true. But, haha, you should know very well that my original intention is far from a sanatorium." It is the entire Quinn Group and the position of the head of the Quinn family. This Bochi has never forgotten his original intention.
Louise smiled back, shook her head and said nothing, meaning she would just wait for the next life.
"And, hey," sighed, "Papa Midnight thought it would be a good idea for me to run the sanatorium. When the Raging Waves family comes to Barton, the wizard, and the wizard's god, will have a direct line of contact."
Louise frowned slightly, unable to judge whether this was good or bad. Let’s discuss it when we notify Zach. On the contrary, Louise hesitated for a moment, "What will happen to Mr. Green?" Green even went to Grande himself to ask.
"Nothing will happen. I will help him keep the fact that his heir has committed suicide a long time ago. He does not need to continue to look at the face of the Barton family. Cooperate well with my work and the Quinn Group will benefit him."
It sounded good. Louise nodded and continued to wait. It was still common sense, and Poch didn't say goodbye.
"Do you need help, Eli Toledo? I believe Green's son, the Dream Demon, should have reminded you that Papa Midnight is interested in Sabbat Toledo. If you need help, you need something to force the Sabbat to choose. Push, Papa Midnight is more than willing to have a hand.”
Louise didn't answer the question. Not to mention that Zach, who could truly give an answer on Grande's behalf, was not here. In terms of facts, was it necessary to reply? When did Papa intervene in the matter at midnight, did he need to notify others? So, "Is there anything else?" Looking at the wisp of ashes floating from the south, "If it's okay, I..." Danny had already fallen in front of him.
"Deer, there is a row of dead deer in the south! There is also a message, 'I'm sorry'!" (..)
