"Since we are going to get to know the 'New World', do we need to call Anthony?" Benjamin asked casually with his hands on the steering wheel.
Zach turned back, looked at the receding scenery in front of the car window, and groped his chin with his pale fingers as he thought, "You reminded me, maybe we should really call Anthony, he is the mayor of Barton City. "
"What are you in? What's the 'new world'?!" In the car between the vampire and the werewolf, the 'weak' James really had no initiative, and the direction of the conversation was always controlled by the vampire. Now he has been forced to accept the need to fully understand the world, but the direction of the topic at this time seems to be beyond his understanding, 'new'? !
Benjamin had turned again, in the direction James could tell was towards City Hall.
"But Anthony is still unwilling to talk to me because of Ian's matter." Zach's mood was a little low. After the end of the last month, the vampire took a day's rest and left a message to Anthony to inform him of Ian's departure, but Anthony never responded, obviously escaping.
"Who is Ian?!" James yelled from the back seat, pressing his hands on the back of the front seat and sticking his head between the two of them.
"This is a very personal matter. You have made it very clear that we are not friends, so you don't need to know. But I can give you a hint. You had an unpleasant meeting." Zach glanced sideways. James, “But to answer your first question, it’s not that the world is so ‘new’, it’s that new changes have occurred.”
James frowned, and the images in his mind kept flipping. The vampire in the Grand basement with the steel cone pulled out of his chest stopped in his mind. Zach was right, they were not friends. James shook the image out of his mind and asked what he wanted to know more, "New changes, what do you mean?"
"Hell, the extremely derogatory hell in the Holy Scriptures, has opened its doors in the city of Barton." Zach said as if casually, "Maybe it's not just Barton, I think the door has been opened in the entire state of Massachusetts, and even the Federation."
"What?!" At this time, James had a ridiculous idea in his mind. Is hell real? ! Not a metaphor, not a figure of speech that only exists in curses, but real!
******
There was a knock on Anthony's office door, and female secretary Gina opened the door and entered, "Mayor... Ann." When there were no outsiders, Gina had already called the mayor of Barton City by his first name!
"Ann, there are two Mr. Grande who want to see you." There was a hint of resentment in Gina's eyes. Anthony had been neglecting her recently, and she began to worry that Anthony had discovered that she was really just a beautiful hollow vase. We know that this worry is unnecessary, Anthony has always known this.
"They didn't make an appointment, I guess..."
"Let them in." Anthony leaned back in his chair, took a deep breath, and waved his hand, "Also, you still have to call me mayor when you are working."
Something stuck in Gina's throat, and she took Anthony's irritable eyes as being directed at herself. It seems that this beautiful female secretary is not stupid, but her intelligence is misplaced.
Gina lowered her head and exited the office. After a while, Grande's two brothers entered the office with James. James was brought here specially by Zach. He needs to know what the correct worldview is.
Anthony raised his head from the papers on the table and saw that James was there, which meant that Zach was not here for Ian. Anthony breathed a sigh of relief, but still frowned, put away the files on the table, and looked at Zach, "Come on, what happened."
If Zach came to exchange feelings, he would not come to the city hall, but go directly to his home. So something must have happened.
"The gates of hell have opened, and demons have begun to appear in Barton City." Zach and Benjamin pulled up chairs very familiarly and sat down opposite Anthony. Zach's words were also very direct, completely different from the circular guidance he gave to James.
James held a breath in his heart and silently pulled up a chair and sat down.
"Devil?" Anthony shook his head, pressed his fingers between his eyebrows, and thought for a while, "Is this the reason why the crime rate has increased recently? I can allocate some funds to the police station to strengthen night patrols. Last year, Barton Mercy Hospital did Maybe I can ask the dean to do another anti-violence propaganda. I can also do more activities in the mutual aid association... "
James watched in surprise as Anthony came up with a lot of urban construction content, each of which would enhance citizens' safety awareness and reduce violence factors. It's just that Anthony's brows are getting tighter and tighter, and the pen in his hand is also writing and drawing. The city government's money is not unlimited. Whatever is added, something will be subtracted accordingly.
"You have to act fast. Find those demons, expel them, and solve them as you please." Anthony thought for a while, "I can only turn over one month. After one month, the city government funds will be distributed according to normal specifications."
There was a smile on Zach's lips. After listening to Anthony's ramble, he leaned forward, reached out to hold down the pen that Anthony was still writing on, and closed the notebook, "Anthony, you didn't hear clearly. My Not only did demons appear, but also the door to hell was opened."
Rather than being summoned and squeezed through a crack in the world, the door is opened. A month? If the door is not closed, this time will be forever!
Anthony's face, which had just revealed a hint of doubt, froze, "Again?"
"The gates of hell have been opened." Zach complied with his friend's request.
"What?! How did you open it?!" Anthony glared at Zach.
Zach signaled Anthony not to get excited, "It's just a guess now, please refer to it."
Something unknown happened in the Federation, which started the popularity of cremation. The foreign tribes entrenched in their own territory began to conquer and recruit, trying to gather strength to move to new lands. We already know that the Secret Alliance of Vampires and Papa Midnight, which were originally in the central part of the Federation, are both composed of the first and third categories of aliens.
Now, you can add the second type of alien layer builders to this migration list. It doesn’t require any imagination, it’s heaven. When the checks and balances at the end are gone, the door at the bottom opens.
Zach looked at Anthony after finishing, "Anthony, is there any news outside Barton City? How accurate is this guess?"
Anthony leaned back in his chair, put his palms on his forehead and pressed his temples, "I'm afraid there are more than half of them. I don't know if they are too far away, but Newton City, west of Barton, Massachusetts, has been the same as us recently. This phenomenon It’s spreading!”
Zach smiled and shook his head, "Anthony, you should put down the rest of today's affairs. We are going to visit this guest who came out of the underground."
"Humph." Anthony snorted coldly, cleaned up the things on his desk, stood up, straightened his clothes, and took his coat off the hanger, "He must know who is the master of this city. "
James followed the three of them silently. Now, he truly admitted that the world in his eyes was incomplete.
