"Yes!!"
"How..." Zach didn't know how to describe it, "Forget it, bye, let's see you tonight. Apex 23S. The fastest update."
"what are you writing?!"
"You don't have to worry."
"No! What are you writing!"
It's pure childishness, knowing that you have lost on something, so you start to grab what is in front of you and prepare to start another battle. Let it be. This new battlefield made James climax. Because he has seen the part that Zach wrote
'Why torture? '
'Why beheading? '
'Where did the soul go? '
…
"Who are these questions for?!" James was demanding answers.
"The murderer you want." Zach gave James an orgasm, how considerate.
Or climax? Everyone knows that this thing only lasts for a short time, and after that, it's... empty, lonely and cold
"Haha." Zach laughed sarcastically, "After you get the murderer you want, you have no reason to continue hiding in Grande~"
The ringing phone saved James.
Zach answered the phone, "Grand Funeral Home."
"Is Lance at your place?" It was Darcy's voice.
Another thing worthy of Zach's ridicule, Zach glanced at James, "Here, how do you know? Director Darcy."
James motioned Zach to stop talking impatiently. Humph, as if Zack would listen.
"Because I'm at his house, but he's not here." Darcy's voice was calm.
"Oh? Then why are you at James' house?" Of course Zach had to repeat Darcy's words for James to hear.
"Have you read today's newspaper, Zachary Grande." He seemed quite serious.
Zach glanced sideways at the newspaper placed on the table and said, "Not yet. Is there any news worth mentioning?" Zach was very relaxed, but he had already pulled the newspaper to his side. As for the content in the introduction, Zach didn't notice it. Something noteworthy.
"Page six." The page number was announced on the receiver.
"Page Six." Zach pushed the newspaper towards James, feeling that something interesting should happen~
James complied grimly.
It's really interesting. James' face completed the life of a rainbow in an instant.
Zach raised his eyebrows without looking at himself. Out of a desire to make his words as interesting as possible, he said, "James just made an expression like he had eaten a cockroach. What's on page six?"
"The current situation in Newton as reported by his girlfriend." came the answer from the other end of the receiver.
Zach raised an eyebrow and said, "Kate?" The raised eyebrow soon turned into a frown. Zach's eyes stared at James' face for a while. What Zach was thinking about at this moment was that in that simulated world, it was Darcy who killed James.
Don’t be confused about what is going on in Newton. I don’t want to emphasize the aspect of angels and black witches, but the human aspect. For the citizens of Newton, their city was a city where all the upper class people disappeared overnight.
How similar to the end of Barton in the simulated world.
What worries Zach is that Darcy, the inheritor who used Barton's doomsday to complete his own immortality in the simulated world, is now concerned about Newton.
Zach, who was trying to think about Darcy's logic now, showed an abnormal look in his eyes, which was noticed by James, "Why do you look at me like that!"
Zach looked away and looked at the receiver, "Is Director Darcy interested in the situation in Newton?"
"No." The other side of the receiver said simply, "What I care about is that Detective Lance didn't control his woman." Without giving Zach a hint of interpretation, he said, "You should read the report Kate wrote. One of us must talk to Lance about this woman. Since Lance is at your place, it's just right, so I don't have to worry." After a pause, "Tell Lance not to come to the police station today. Goodbye." Hang up. .
Zach put down the phone and glanced at James, "Newspaper." He stretched out his hand.
"I haven't finished reading..."
The newspaper has been brought over by Zach, but James has an annoyed look on his face!
Title "Newton's Chronicle".
Uh, doesn't this woman know what restraint is
'I have never seen a city so chaotic and disorderly... '
Is this reporter's professional training all about feeding dogs? This is not the first time she has added personal emotions to news reports. She is a reporter, not a critic.
'Every day we witness things that put civilization to shame and barbarism. The car alarm was screaming, but the people walking by stepped forward and kicked it to stop it; a small supermarket was robbed, and the criminal's getaway car was a police car; a march with banners asked the city to cheer up. People, however, treat the city hall as their own home and come and go at will; children and teenagers wander on the streets... '
To be honest, Zach didn't even see what Kate was expressing when she wrote these irrelevant and unclear things. Looking at James who had been forced to bypass him to read the report, he said with a hint of ridicule, "Did you know that your girlfriend is in Newton on a business trip for news work?"
James glanced at Zach gloomily, gritted his teeth, "I don't know!"
James thought his girlfriend had disappeared again, didn't he? Haha, he knew Zach was mocking him.
Zach unexpectedly did not get any pleasure from this ridicule. He shook his head, skipped the large sections of Newton's chaotic state described by Kate, and looked at the second half.
'But some communities in Newtown still maintain a calm that is not in line with the current situation of the city... '
This woman is really speechless. First she dislikes the current situation in Newton. There is no chaos in the community, but she is unhappy again
'The so-called God will redeem all communities...'
Uh, is this mocking the faith of the Holy Lord? Taunting the angel Crowley
'Every day, the city's churches are full, with people praying hopefully and praising their God. Peaceful, they are calm indeed, because the people here don't care about what is going on around them, the people, what is going on, they are thinking about heaven, the beautiful heaven surrounded by angels. The author... '
Zach raised an eyebrow, Kate, you have the guts.
'The author really wants to tell these peaceful people, do you know that the first step to heaven is to die. pray? Stop wasting your time and go to hell. Believe me, there is only one step between you and heaven. '
At the same time, Zach began to feel confused. Why would this kind of article appear in the newspaper
'Another peaceful community is a community of migrant Indian women. Since the functions of the municipal government have collapsed, the author is unable to obtain the origins of this Indian women's community from formal channels. But I have to admit that I don’t want to be robbed on the road or get involved in other troubles, so I live in this community and enjoy the peace. '
Is Kate writing about a community of black witches? Uh, sure.
'You don't have to be too keen to spot the difference between this community and that 'go to hell' community... '
Kate, really, really is a decent guy.
'Maybe I can't describe the feeling of being in this community, but there is a feeling of being safe. All the chaos happening outside seems to have nothing to do with this place. The Indian women in this community do whatever they should, shopping, working and living. Just like vulnerable groups (Indians, women) who are clearly in a chaotic world, they seem to be unaware of the potential dangers around them. Or, they know, but don't know why, they are not afraid, because they are sure that nothing bad in this city will happen to them... '
Zach adjusted his posture and looked at James again, "Your girlfriend is dangerously dancing on the edge of what angels and black witches can tolerate~"
"Shut up!"
Zach was so obedient and was not ready to continue reading. He leaned back in his chair and gave all the space to James. Looking at James bending over, he tilted his head and didn't know what he was thinking.
Until James also finished reading, he straightened up and stood there motionless.
Zach spoke, "Tell me, James, how much do you like this woman?"
What an uncomfortable question. Seriously, how much do you like anything? How to answer.
So James said nothing.
Zach asked James to answer in an unromantic manner, "Give me a comparison, between me and Kate, which one do you like more?"
James turned his head and stared at Zach, "I don't like you at all!!"
"Then let me change my approach. If my immortality ends, you will spend one second mourning for me. And if Kate herself commits her own limited life to death, how much time will you spend mourning her."
James' expression at this time was 'Just a little bit, I will slap you! 'But, just a little bit.
"Okay, I understand." Zach shrugged and turned his head, "I can probably understand why Darcy wants me to talk to you about Kate." He shook his head with a chuckle, "This woman has obviously broken up. She no longer knows her boundaries. If she has any interaction with you in the future, it will be trouble."
James' face was sullen, but his eyes conveyed 'Say! '
Zach didn't look at James at all, but he should have such confidence in controlling the rhythm of the conversation. The explanation came, "You also saw how she wrote about the people and aliens in Newton, even though this was a piece of news that conveyed deviations. Personal emotion at its core, well, prose. But do you get the sense that Kate is defending either side?"
James frowned.
Ask yourself and answer questions, the easiest way to control the conversation, "No. She is not defending any side. On the human side, she hates the chaotic and disorderly citizens of the city. On the alien side, she despises the angels' efforts to appease people, and blames the black people. Witches are self-sustaining, not helping more people.”
Zach looked at James, "You know what everyone calls this kind of person, an angry young man. James, your girlfriend is an angry young man. Ha, it's not a complimentary one, a derogatory one. Everything, It can’t meet her expectations for this world, right?”
For a moment, Zach wanted to bring up the topic of 'security' again, using the argument 'even you let Kate down' to irritate James even more. But looking at James's face, forget it. Why not leave a way for others to survive and let James go this time
Zach continued, "Then if you continue to let Kate in your life, James, you know what will happen. After all, you are also one of the people who are angry about this world. One plus one does not equal two, it equals infinity. Kate will destroy you and everything around you..."
"You don't know! You are just talking nonsense..."
Continuously interrupted, "Am I talking nonsense? Do you think you can be angry now with the black witch who is the only one who brings her peace, and will not be angry with you when she is by your side in the future? James, you know the Sabbat's arrangements for you. Don't Deceiving yourself, you only have two options, the Sabbat's and mine. Do you think there is any possibility for Kate to accept me or the Sabbat now?"
"I won't follow anyone else's path..."
Zach didn't even bother to argue with James on this. Waving his hand, "Whatever you say, just understand it in your heart. I won't force you to admit it verbally."
Giving James time to fight in his heart. Zach readjusted his posture, "Get Kate out of your life. Make a decision." Zach disgusted James with malicious intent, "Like I said initially, Kate is your problem and the decision is yours. It's up to you." For once, I’m willing to help you.”
The proposal is obvious. As long as James says a word, Zach will instantly erase all the memories that will explode James' future, turning Kate into a bad reporter with unclear knowledge, and will no longer interact with all this.
And this proposal obviously touched something.
"Do you think this is all fun?!" James stared at Zach.
It should be, wasn't it Zach who deliberately left Kate's memory in the first place, making Kate become like this
"Fun? No." Zach shook his head and looked at James, "Disappointment is. The disappointment of watching you lose control of things step by step." Zach said very directly, "You thought I initially kept Kate's Memories are just for fun? Then do you think it was fun that I didn’t erase your memories for a pair of your underwear at first, just like Madison maliciously portrayed?”
Zach's eyes were fixed on James, "Look at you now, from the initial naked and dying look in the woods to now you still have the energy to argue with me here. Do I look like I'm playing? No. , I didn’t play. I defended against a clue that life gave me, I left it, watched it grow, and then controlled it. Look, you are still here, aren’t you.”
Zach raised his chin, "What about you, Kate is your life, what do you control? Or does your control mean always living in the hypocrisy of living together but in two worlds, waiting for me again and again? To clean you up after you broke out? I'm not the detective who fell in love with a woman over a drunken date, you are. Take control of your own life, James Lance."
James took a few steps back, "You're really..."
"Shameless? Whatever. I have to admit, I wanted to teach you a lesson. I would be happy if you could control it, but it turns out that you can't. You put Kate in this situation. You once relied on There is no need for you to exclude my efforts to solve the problem. You will have a second time... "
Before Zach could finish speaking, the phone rang.
Zach didn't answer either.
