"You look very distracted. Apex 23S. The fastest update." Nenad hesitated for a long time before speaking.
Zach glanced at Nenad who was driving, "Is it okay if you just drive away Allen's car?"
It's like this. Zach's car was towed away and repaired. It was said that it hit a tree while reversing. Allen Funeral Home paid for it 'because' Chris hit it. If Chris hadn't been in the car, Zach wouldn't have had to hit it. I understand.
"No problem, this is in our contract. Allen Funeral Home will provide us with all the needs for our life and work." Nainard answered easily.
"Your background is that of people who lost their jobs in the funeral industry. Do you need such a big name?"
"No need. But Allen Funeral Home snatched it from Grande. Since it's competition, we have to act like it."
Zach accepted this statement. Anyway, the eight members of the Sabbat would not let themselves be wronged no matter what. I looked sideways at the scenery in the southern district outside the window. It was quite boring. The fields, houses, and roads were gone.
The two of them will first go to the sanatorium to find Mokawi, and then go to Walter to do a blood transfusion for Siris.
Zach had already called the nursing home last night. He was originally worried that Mokawi would resist the plan, but maybe Benjamin made Mokawi happy. The ancestor agreed easily, and the only requirement was to take a look. Nenad who transfused blood for her descendant’s husband: “I can’t even remember the last time I saw a living Cappadocia~ Little Zach, bring him here and let me have a look~ I’m looking for Cappadocia The feeling of West Asia~"
Zach couldn't say no.
Nenad felt that Zach didn't want to talk, so he could only keep quiet and arrived at the nursing home without talking.
When they were at the door, Zach said, "I don't want to see Benjamin and Mokawi together. Go in by yourself. Don't be nervous, Mokawi won't bite."
Nenad couldn’t say no either. But what he wanted to hear wasn't 'Mokavi can't bite. 'It's 'Benjamin won't bite'. But obviously Zach wouldn't say that.
For Zach, it felt a little strange to be in a nursing home again. First of all, the signboard of the sanatorium has the logo of Quinn Group. Thinking that Pochi is the owner of this place, you will feel that life is really fucking magical. Then, it was hard not to think of a certain guy in this place, Lip the Nightmare.
The last time Zach fell into a strange dream-like scene, it was done with the cooperation of Boysen's 'Valmina' and Lip.
Zach made a fool of himself in front of all of Barton's upper echelons at Herman's luncheon. Changing dreams are expressed in the real world.
But if you think about it carefully, it's not a dream, it's Zach's memory. Vampires don't know how to dream. They don't even know how to sleep properly. How can they dream? 'Valmina' turned Zach's memory into a real and illusory dream, making the immortal vampire who was bound by definition in this world get lost in the ongoing and historical memories, showing all his ugliness.
Can you feel a little bit what Zach is thinking? Yesterday, he had just experienced an inexplicable incident that John mentally identified as an assassination, and then lost three hours of memory with Walter. Not long ago, he and Chris experienced another failed attempt. murder
Just when Zach stopped talking to Chris, got out of the car, moved to the back of the car, and knocked away the car crossing Route 27, he saw that the bus that crashed directly into them was the one that was destroyed yesterday. That one. The same license plate, the same driver, the same carriage full of passengers... Just after Zach crashed the car and ensured Chris's safety, the bus that should have been destroyed disappeared.
It sounds like our vampire was tricked by memory again, right, but Zach immediately asked Chris if he saw it, right, and Chris said yes.
So, either, everyone is going crazy together. Or, reality is crazy. It's like the editing of a movie went wrong, and the images that were edited yesterday were put on today's timeline. Ha, like Zach making a fool of himself at Herman’s luncheon ~ The world is dreaming ~
Bang bang bang.
Zach turned his head, looked at Mr. Green leaning against the car window, and curled his lips. Great, I was thinking about the dream demon, and the father of the dream demon came to disturb me.
Lowering the car window, "Mr. Green, are you okay?" Zach warned Green with his eyes not to say anything like, "I want to go to the cemetery to see my son." They have already made it clear about this topic. Remember, if Green doesn't want him to become a criminal who concealed his son's suicide, and Grande is an accomplice in dealing with it, he should never mention this matter again!
"Uh, um, I want to ask, how long will you, your brother, Mr. Benjamin Grande, stay in the nursing home?" Uh, Zach forgot to guard against this, "I really don't want to be in our patients. What kind of special treatment is there? Mo, Mokawei... forget it, Mr. Benjamin is here almost every day. Well, see if you can... "
"Do you want to go see Philip in the cemetery?" Never, never assume Zach's bottom line, this vampire has no bottom line! In order to avoid the topic that he didn't want to talk about, he would do whatever it took, even if it meant slapping himself in the face, "I'll give you access to the tomb area."
After a brief moment of confusion, "Really! Thank you!"
Zach had turned his head and rolled back the car window, not making his gesture too clear.
Mr. Green looked at the closed car window again, with a face that was sometimes happy and sometimes sad. This was the effect he wanted. The guy struggled for a while, sighed heavily next to the car, turned around and left.
We all know the building structure of a nursing home. There is a long and wide staircase from the front yard where the parking lot is to the main entrance of the building. When Mr. Green was halfway there, a new car drove in. He only glanced back, quickened his pace, rushed into the sanatorium in a flash, and closed the main door of the sanatorium under Zach's slightly surprised gaze.
Zach glanced at the car coming in, hehe, it was Bochi.
Naturally, Pochi also saw Zach sitting in the car. He didn't come over to say hello. He made an extremely formal sound, walked up the stairs with his chest raised and his head raised, and then knocked at the front door, knock, knock, knock...
It took about five minutes. Pochi turned around and got down. This time he walked to Zach's car. With a gloomy look on his face, he tapped the car window with one finger, "What are you doing here!"
"I appreciate you being shut out by your own employees." Zach opened the car window just enough to allow the sound to pass through.
Pochi's cheeks trembled slightly, "The construction team introduced by Grande has arrived at my house. Where did you find those guys! They feel like profiteers all over their bodies!"
"Austin? Haha, give him some time, you will like this guy." Zach understood why Pochi was here, "So you finally don't have to build a house by yourself, are you ready to work?"
Work, Pochi had to enter a nursing home before he could talk about work, so he could only increase the trembling frequency of the muscles on his cheeks, "No! I just came to take a look!" Probably he really didn't want to look at Zach's smiling face, so he looked up A window on the upper floor of the nursing home.
Coincidentally, there was someone behind the window looking down. Not Mokavi, not Benjamin, but Amelia, Dr. Browning.
Zach noticed Pochi gesturing upwards, so he asked, "What? Do you have any friendship with Emilia?"
Because after receiving the gesture, Emilia shook her head helplessly, but still disappeared from the window. Pochi should come down after a while, and asked Emilia to help persuade Green to open the door for Pochi.
"Humph, do you need to ask?" Boqi didn't look at Zach and leaned against the car door. "Didn't it come about because of you that she and her grandmother got together to create the shelter project? She often went to the manor to discuss projects before. Yes. Friendship, it’s nothing, but at least I’m a ‘Quinn’.”
Timing is key. Zach made a fool of himself at Herman's luncheon, Boysen's appearance, Amelia's shelter project plan... Don't miss the resurrection process of the ghoul Harrison, maybe it will be mentioned later.
Zach recalled it and raised his eyebrows, "Weren't you still under house arrest at that time? Could it be that at that time, you were already found by Papa Midnight? It started to pave the way for future development. Wow." Zach. He opened his mouth and said, "I never thought that Papa Midnight had such, uh, foresight." Yes, it happened so long ago.
Pochi did not answer the question directly, "It has nothing to do with Papa Midnight. I am, uh, a 'patient'. Amelia is a professional doctor, a doctor who wants to beg the Quinn family. Do you think your grandmother will be convinced by you so easily?" Don't you have some ideas when you take over the shelter project? Tsk. You are stupid sometimes."
Zach frowned, then waved his hand, forget it, let Pochi be proud, "So you and Emilia are very familiar with each other, and now you ask her for help? You know that she doesn't technically belong to this nursing home, right? Have your own private psychotherapy clinic and come here just for Mokawi.”
"It is true now." Pochi lowered his head and glanced at Zach. He was proud and deliberately showed off to Zach. "But from now on, I will manage this place. You should know that this place was abandoned by the medical system controlled by the Barton family. , it will become a private facility if it returns to the Quinn Group, which means..." He deliberately didn't say anything and let Zach complete it himself.
Zach followed quickly, "You can provide Amelia with a stable source of customers."
"Yes, she has already cooperated with Quinn once to create a shelter, which is a good thing to gain fame. Do you think she will refuse this good thing to gain profits? Hehe, you can't expect her ghoul to rely on charity Let the sex shelter support your family.”
Zach raised his eyebrows. This was the first time he felt that Porky was Quinn. Pity.
When the conversation came to an end, the main door of the sanatorium opened, and four people came out together, Benjamin and Nenad on one side, and Amelia and Mr. Green on the other.
It was obvious that everyone was looking for different people. Zach in the car would not move. Boqi rearranged his clothes, straightened his chest and raised his head, and greeted him with a full posture. He still said something to Zach, "Yesterday, no matter what What does grandma want to do with you? I hope you will carefully consider what you are going to do!"
Zach ignored it. If Mrs. Quinn had something important to say, she would not just wait for one afternoon, but wait until Zach showed up.
Nenad entered the car with a strange expression on his face. Benjamin did not come in. He lay down in front of Zach's completely lowered car window and raised his chin at Zach, "Nenad said you have something on your mind."
"Yeah." It's always good to feel cared about. Zach looked at Benjamin, "You started growing a beard again?"
These words were quite sad, and Zach felt like he hadn't seen Benjamin for a long time.
"Well, Mokavi likes the feel."
The good feeling was gone. Zach turned his head and started to roll the window. In front of Benjamin's head that moved up a little bit, "Green just asked you when you will go home. He doesn't want you to stay here every day, which makes him want to take special care of Mokavi." Like a sick person."
Having said that, don’t assume Zach’s bottom line, he doesn’t have one.
"It's almost time. Amelia is ready to release Mokawi from the hospital." Benjamin looked through the window of the truck and tilted his head. He didn't mind and continued, "If I tell you, I want to take Mokawi to live in Grande." Li, do you have any opinion?"
The handle that Zach was holding on to the window was stuck somewhere. Unless Zach didn't mind beheading Benjamin at this moment, he could roll up the window smoothly. "I have a very big opinion."
"Well, then, I guess I'll just have to move out of Glen..."
Zach's red eyes stared at Benjamin's head stuck in the window, it was 'I will...'
"How about I rephrase that, I don't want to live next to Porky."
The redness has faded, but Zach is in an unusually bad mood, "If Papa doesn't respond to Pochi's call at midnight, you won't be affected in any way in Grande!"
"Then, let me change. I don't want to live in the home of a Sabbat vampire."
Can we say that Benjamin has become eloquent? No, if he was being clever, there would be no need for a different reason.
Zach stared at Benjamin's head, "Then I accept Mokavi to live in the Grand!"
Benjamin was quiet for a while, "Okay, then I'll discuss it with her, she's the one who makes the decision." He twisted his neck to signal Zach to open the window.
Zach frowned, not knowing what else to say.
Benjamin took back his head as he wished, knocked on the car window, "Bye." He returned to the nursing home with his usual casual look.
Without giving an order that made Zach irritated, Nenad started the car consciously. When Pochi on the other side also entered the nursing home with his chest raised and his head raised, he drove out of here. It was time to go to Walter's place. Sires' blood transfusion was still waiting. them.
I just don’t know what happened during the meeting between Nenad and Mokawi. During the drive back on the road, Nenad didn’t speak again, and Zach wouldn’t say anything either.
Taking advantage of this time when Zach is re-examining his brotherly relationship, let’s take a look at Zach’s other brother.
Derek has officially moved into his new home in Barton, and then things get a little more realistic. Derek puts down the work call he just finished and dials again. He seems to be very sure who is answering his call.
"Steve, I'm sorry, there is an emergency consultation at the hospital. I need to report in advance. The patient's condition is very bad. I don't know when it will be over. The afternoon appointment will be postponed."
