Back in Grande, Chapman made his usual phone call to his family, and also reported to Darcy the whereabouts of Zach, "He went to Mary's Church to help deal with the homeless, and the mayor and Eisela showed up there completely." Coincidence. Vertex 23S. Fastest update"
Don't worry about this guy. Sires came to work in Grande as normal. But before talking about Siris, we must mention the other guests of Grandry.
The high school group came, many of them. This is actually quite surprising. Except for Laura and Kyle of the Barton family, who no longer have the habit of worshiping, people like Kepler and Sissy should still have a symbolic need to attend worship today.
The most surprising thing is actually Caesar. This guy actually dares to come to Grande.
When Zach came back, Caesar was being surrounded by Logan and a group of people behind the west warehouse. It was supposed to be a private place where Logan could vent his anger at being cheated by a teenager (Logan used personal money to ask Caesar to buy drugs for him, but was intercepted by Zach midway). But talking about sex in Grande is so boring. Zach didn't even enter the door and went directly to the West Warehouse, "Didn't Old Hank arrange a job for you?"
Logan looked at Zach meaningfully and retreated with his men. Probably thinking, 'Let's see how long you, the fake Grande, can continue to be arrogant in Grande. 'It's not about that, it's just what I think. Haha, let it go. This is what Zack 'wants', isn't it.
"Aren't you ashamed?" Zach pulled Caesar and left the West Warehouse. "None of your friends will help you."
"Help, how to help? Let Sissi tear your employee into a thousand pieces." Caesar rolled his eyes at Zach, and after saying that, he actually threw something at Zach.
Zach caught it and glanced at the tight plastic packaging of the bag, "What is this?"
"'Valmina,'" Caesar answered.
Zach frowned and took a look at the package, "Where did you get this?"
"It's none of your business. Anyway, if you don't come, I won't be beaten. But now this thing is useless, you can handle it yourself."
Zach pinched the 'Varmina' in his hand, "Should I worry about your dating life for Anthony or your mother (Esela)?" No one would think that a high school student has obtained the 'Varmina' Channels are a good thing. Caesar knew some very dangerous people. Based on the basic morality of an adult, Zach felt that Caesar should immediately cut off any contact with people in this area.
"Okay." Caesar actually followed the words, "Sissi is a saint, Alice and Maya are black witches, Lola Kyle has a guardian angel, and Chris has a father who is a Sabbat vampire. Me, There is nothing, I said you should consider giving me some protection in making friends with this group of people."
This direction was completely beyond Zach's expectation. He looked at Caesar and asked, "Did your mother say something to you?"
"That woman?" That's how Caesar calls his mother, whom we've seen so many times. "Humph. I haven't seen her in almost a week."
Zach pouted, too lazy to participate in other people's gossip.
Place Caesar in Grande's recreation room. Sissi, Kepler, and Laura are all in Alice's room. Yes, the two Grande girls who had been locked in with Sam since last night have not come out yet. It seems that the gang is in Grande to wait for Alice and Maya.
However, there are only a few boys in the recreation room now, Kyle, Chris and the newly arrived Caesar.
Kyle seemed to ignore Zach at all times, but Chris chased Zach out.
Zach's original intention was to go to the office to meet Siris who was waiting there, but he had to stop and watch what the guy was about to say.
"Hamilton gave me a job offer." The beginning was quite scary. The Sabbat vampire gave a job offer to a high school student. "He said that my father is already a vampire of the Sabbat, and he will soon be included in the Sabbat." The vampire identity management system, at any time, his identity as the human 'Alan' may disappear, and then the Allen Funeral Home needs an owner. He wanted me to..." Pixar silenced himself.
This may be part of the discussion between Hamilton and Sibella yesterday.
Zach could probably guess what Chris was thinking, so he comforted him first, "You don't have to think about this kind of thing now. Generally speaking, the validity period of an adult male vampire's status in human society is 10 to 20 years. I think Hami Dun is just mentioning it to tell you to prepare for the future. And you have a lot of time to prepare."
Chris's face improved a little, but he still had some doubts, "But Hamilton said it could happen at any time."
"That's right, humans can die at any time. In theory, the identity of 'Alan' can expire at any time, and in the city of Barton, where Anthony is the mayor, vampires must have a legal identity that can be replaced at any time. "Hamilton is just describing the facts objectively." He patted Chris and said, "Anyway, you don't have to worry about anything. The funeral industry is not a highly publicized profession, and your father has never personally performed any dangerous work. You don't have to worry about yourself." There needs to be a sudden act of losing a father one day. If it happens, the Sabbat must have specific arrangements. Vampires have been establishing this identity alternation system since the founding of this country, so you don't have to think too much."
Chris nodded, "Thank you."
Zach didn't respond and patted Chris. To be honest, it feels a bit strange. Probably because the first contact with Chris was so perfect. Zach saved the kidnapped Chris, remember. As a result, this guy Chris has an unusual... uh, closeness to Zach.
He always asks Zach to forgive his father's actions. What he expresses most when he sees Zach is gratitude, isn't it
Now this kind of very specific thing that Hamilton should have explained needs to be confirmed by Zach. This kid... forget it.
Chris returned to the recreation room, and Zach also entered the office as he wished. He glanced at Siris who was distracted at the desk, "You have been absent from work for two days, and your salary will be deducted." This was just a reminder to the other party. Just a joke to cheer up.
Unexpectedly, Siris raised his head and said, "Oh, it doesn't matter, I'm a rich man."
Zach immediately guessed that this was probably related to Siris running to Newton, but Nenad said that this was not something Zach needed to worry about, so, "Still, work is work. I'm still waiting for Ya Se's explanation." Zach wanted to bring the topic back to what he had been waiting for two days...
"I don't understand." Sires looked at Zach who was sitting down, "You said you should start by being a good vampire, but..."
It's better to interrupt, "Nenad said it's none of my business. He is your 'father'." Zach gave Siris an understanding look, "You need to respect your 'father's' decision."
Sires pursed his lips and was silent for a long time. "It was the Sabbat's order for Hamilton to take Arthur away." Zach started getting down to business as he wished.
"Why?"
"No reason. Hamilton was simply ordered to take Arthur away from the Grand."
Getting an explanation is not the only purpose, don't forget the 'you tell me, I'll teach you what to do' game between Zach and Nenad, "Does Nenad have any ideas?"
"No." Sires shook his head. "He was just as puzzled as Hamilton about the reason for the Sabbat's order. The only thing they know is that if you stop them when they come to take people, give up." He said, Zach made a look that asked me personally, "But you happened to be away, Louise wasn't here, and Old Hank didn't pay attention to any attempt by Hamilton to communicate." Well, remember how Old Hank described to Zach how Arthur was Did he take them away? "There was no one in Grand who was worthy of Hamilton's communication, so he just took them away."
Hey, then the next day, not to mention the attack on Grande, Hamilton was attacked by Benjamin. Zach pretended not to care when he passed by, so naturally no one would explain.
This, on the other hand, left Zach completely clueless and tried to ask, "If the Western Sabbat wants to know what the personal dispute between me and Arthur is, they can ask Hamilton directly."
Sires looked at Zach and said nothing. It's because this temptation is of no use to Sires. Sires does not represent anyone and he cannot respond to Zach.
Zach pursed his lips and said, "Okay, when you go back today, ask Nainard when they plan to return Arthur."
"I don't think you can." Sires said this, and then quickly changed his mind, "Nenad doesn't think Arthur can return to Grande." Tsk, doesn't Nenad have an opinion? Why didn't you tell me earlier? .
"Why?"
"Alan." Siris lowered his head and thought for a moment, probably thinking about how to rephrase it to make it sound, well, gentler. "You remember that I told you before that Nenad needs to explain to Alan. Convince him to like Grande and Toledo, right? Because you were once regarded by Allen as his biggest enemy in the funeral industry."
"Remember." Zach certainly remembered that Siris also added that he didn't need to be convinced, he originally 'liked' Grande. Zach remembered every person who confessed to him, it was caused by vanity, "Does this have anything to do with it?"
"A little bit. Allen is..." Sires curled his lips, "Not generous."
Madison should listen to this.
Zach was a little surprised, and had no idea where this was going, "You continue."
"After Allen accidentally killed you." There is no need to review how Zach started pretending to be dead. "He escaped to Newton, and then was discovered by the abandoned vampire (Eli), and completed the process of obtaining your death fake. The process of intelligence.”
Being reminded like this, Zach thought, "Alan, was tortured by Eli." He frowned with mixed emotions. (When Eli first appeared in Barton, at No's house, he told Sloan that he would let the person who killed Zach see hell)
"Yes." Siris nodded, "Nenad thinks that the abandoned vampire's obsession with the name Toledo has gone bad." Hush! No one in the Sabbat party knows the true relationship between Eli and Zach! Including Nainad! Don't tell them! Let them continue to think that Eli just cares too much about the surname 'Toledo'. "He felt that this was related to the Sabbat's consistent attitude towards abandoned vampires, but it could no longer be changed, which caused Eli to have a morbid attitude towards you personally. Persistence. You can't tolerate Alan, a human being, to end your life. So during the time when Alan was captured by Eli, he, he was..." Sires shook his head, passed this paragraph, and continued, "Demon Banquet did not give Hamilton any specific instructions on how to deal with Arthur, no instructions on life or death. Then, Allen began to repay everything the abandoned vampire had done to him."
"Are Hamilton and Nenad just watching?"
"Yes." Siris nodded, "Hamilton originally had no good impression of the abandoned vampires, so he didn't want to take care of it. As for Nenad, it was because he needed Allen to vent. The abandoned vampires were the reason why Allen's life changed. Start." It's wrong, it was Zach who was pretending to be dead, but "Nenad can't let Allen attribute all the negative emotions brought about by these changes to you." You have to love Zach, right?" So there is only this Arthur, for Allen to vent."
In Zach's heart, there was a hint of sympathy for the innocent Arthur.
Siris didn't finish, "Besides, Allen knows exactly what he is doing."
"How to say?"
"Alan is very skilled in torturing abandoned vampires." Sires frowned, "I just said that he was repaying what he had suffered."
Zach also frowned and said, "Be specific." To be honest, there are not many ways to torture vampires. The strengths and weaknesses of vampires are too obvious, and there is nothing to show off. Any method that can actually harm a vampire is fatal. Then, if you die instantly, what fun is there in torture
Zach suddenly waved his hand, "Forget it, I don't want to hear it." Anyway, it must be a torture method for Eli's special bloodline ability. Zach was not interested in gaining this knowledge, "You want to say, Alan, you enjoyed it."
Siris continued to nod, "Nenad felt that Allen would not be willing to let go of this 'toy' in a short time, and then Nenad also felt that Allen should be allowed to enjoy it, even if Arthur was played to death by Allen, as long as Ai can be It's a good thing that Lun has vented all his negative emotions towards you. Therefore, Nenard believes that if he were you, he should never expect to get Arthur back, just think of it as a gift to Alan."
The game Zack invented crashed. Because Zach completely agrees with Nenad’s idea! Zach must not be the one who wants Arthur back!
Zach stood up and walked out of the office.
Cyrus was about to ask, but closed his mouth and stood up, knowing that the conversation between himself and Zach was over and it was time to go to work.
Zach, he went to the recreation room, "Chris, come out."
Zach can't ask for help, so why should he just give up? Just ignore the hint of sympathy just now
"What's the matter?" Chris rushed to Zach as quickly as possible. So… attentive.
"Do you know what your father has been doing lately?" Zach asked.
"I don't know. He rarely comes out once he goes to the basement. The day before yesterday, um..." He hesitated a little, for fear of offending Zach, "After Benjamin went there (the attack), he never came out."
"Although he is a vampire, he is still your father." Zach's words were incomprehensible. "Please spend more time with him when you have time. You should also understand how difficult all these changes are for your father."
Allow Zack to plagiarize Asera's words.
"Yes! Thank you! I will spend more time with him!"
