A new day, a new beginning. Vertex 23S. Fastest updated shit.
In this world, as long as you are alive, there is no new beginning. All the events that will begin with the rise of the sun today are the continuation of yesterday. Nothing 'new', just old! Want something new? Go to hell.
Our vampire wants to live forever, so when he let his skin return from dry and wrinkled to normal, "Is James back?"
"No." Sam answered.
Zach packed his clothes, left the master bedroom and headed to the office, before he picked up the phone and continued yesterday. We should know what happened after yesterday's phone call with Mr. Pixar.
A lot of things happened, but it seemed like nothing happened.
Zach has been waiting at Grande for James to come back. Wait until Mo comes back with a face full of joy and carrying 'Sofia~' in his mouth; wait until Old Hank comes back and ask a few employees to go out again; wait until Louise calls to say that Daisy has run away; wait until the Sabbat of the West Zmich made a special call to urge Zach to make a decision on whether to cooperate; when Mike came to Grande like a puff of smoke that could dissipate at any time, and then drifted to the Church of the Holy Child for training; when... the sun rose again .
Zach dialed the number and got through, "It's me, is James at the police station?" Zach called the number of the Southern District Police Station. To be specific, it was the number of the self-explosion task force, so it was the person in charge, Kou Detective Mori answered.
"Good morning~ He hasn't come yet. He should have returned to the North District Police Station after the operation yesterday. Hehe, he and Director Darcy are looking for you..."
Zach is dead.
Continuing to dial, the call was connected, "It's me, is James at the police station?" The same opening.
Darcy on the other side of the receiver said, "Uh, no. As for yesterday's operation, do you have time now? Can you tell me what happened to those weapons..."
Zach died again.
He frowned and thought for a while, then dialed again. After getting through, I started waiting as expected. It was still a question of whether anyone would answer the call. James Lance's home, the attic in the back street of Lister.
Just when Zach was about to give up and hang up, the phone was picked up.
"Hello? Lance's home?" Who is this inexplicably hesitant voice? Still a woman!
Zach was stunned for a moment, "Is he at home?"
"Uh... not here. Well" he continued hesitantly and uncertainly, "You, do you need to leave a message?"
Zach also became hesitant. There is a reason why Zach is waiting for James. Yesterday, he and Mr. Pixar had a heated conversation on the phone. Many of Zach’s doubts about Pixar have been answered. Zach needs James to deal with it... I will say this later. Now, Zach got rid of his hesitation, "Who are you."
"Me, me? I, I am..."
Snapped! The phone was hung up.
Almost at the same time, Zach also finished hanging up and left the office, and started his windy morning run.
It's impossible for us to keep up with the vampire's speed, so we go to the vampire's destination and wait.
woman. The woman in her pajamas is beautiful? It's impossible to tell from the messy bird's nest hairstyle and the takeout stains all over his body. What you can tell is, uh, agility? She jumped and rummaged through the clutter of trash and takeout boxes. While tying up the messy hair, he twisted himself into the jacket he found.
Finally, at the door, I looked back at James's house, which was in a mess. "I'm sorry!" I shouted into the air, and then ran.
It doesn't matter when Zach came, anyway, it was Toledo's speed limit. He also stood at the door, taking a look at the patched iron door that was not even closed, and at the mess inside the door, "Tsk."
"Already ran away." Sam said.
Zach took out the thimble from his already tattered clothes, set aside a clean space on the counter at the entrance, put the thimble on it, "Check the garbage." Himself? Close the door and enter, go up to the second floor, go to the bedroom, and 'borrow' James' clothes. There is no need to describe the image of the vampire after running away, everyone understands.
Dark red witchcraft spells began to spread on the first floor. Zach was already standing in James' bedroom. He took a look at the wrinkled and dirty bed. He didn't want to make any judgment and opened the closet directly.
James' body is wider than Zach's, but fortunately it's winter, so it doesn't make any difference after putting on layers. Zach took advantage. We know that James is rich and can wear just a few outfits for Kozier to stand on the street.
After finishing dressing up and tidying up, Zach came out of the bedroom and looked at the mess downstairs without wanting to go downstairs. "What did you find?" he asked.
"My witchcraft cannot reproduce what happened here, so a living person lives here." Sam said his first reasoning.
Nonsense reasoning. Zach curled his lips and said, "You can confirm it as soon as you come in. Food packaging and heating."
"Oh." Sam was not discouraged and kept trying, "It's a woman. There are some long hair and female products in the bathroom..."
Zach was helpless, "The voice on the phone was a woman, a young woman."
"Oh." The more frustrated you become, the more courage you get? "She likes sweets, and most of the takeaway packages are desserts from the cafe downstairs."
It was still obvious, but Zach didn't interrupt. This was a very useful clue, and Zach was ready to go downstairs.
Syme continued, "She loves romantic comedies and thrillers, and the TV cabinet is full of video rental receipts."
Zach jumped over the garbage on the ground.
"And she's not James' friend." Sam was still saying when Zach stuffed him back into his pocket. "Did you know that James had a safe hidden under the bar? She pried it open."
Zach was about to leave. After hearing this, he raised his eyebrows and turned around to go to the bar.
"Front, down, second cabinet."
Zach followed the instructions, "I always thought it was the ice machine."
"Yes, but the seam on the right side, touch it and see if you can feel it."
Zach twisted his mouth and pulled it out completely. It's really a safe, not big, like a flat drawer. The lock had been warped, and Zach opened it with a frown. Some cash and bearer bonds and stuff like that.
Zach raised his eyebrows. James is a policeman with the most positive image in the world. It would be too weird to hide such a thing in his home.
There was a knock on the door.
Zach glanced toward the door. I don’t know if you still remember the iron door of James’s house. It was patched and filled with silver. Zach had no idea who was knocking on the door.
Pushing the safe back, he opened the door without any hesitation. Just a crack, "Who am I looking for?" and a bit indifferent.
"Mr. Grand?" Well, the guy at the door actually knows Zach.
Zach could only open the door slightly wider, "Who are you?"
"The employees of Time Elf below." The takeaway package was raised in front of him, but he tried to look past Zack into the room with a puzzled look on his face, "The lady ordered breakfast, capucillo with extra sugar..."
Zach wasn't ready to let the other person finish, "She's not here."
"Oh." He handed the takeaway to Zach, but showed no intention of leaving, "I didn't see Mr. Grande coming to Mr. Lance's place to play during the good time~" Is this considered gossip? It's understandable, Wednesday game night has lasted for more than half a year, and now... Forget it, I won't talk about it anymore, everyone understands. It's no surprise that people around here know Zach.
Zach was not in the mood to answer the call, so he hesitated for a moment, and was ready to go directly to the Eye of Charm, so as not to ask the Time Elf later. Hong, covering up towards this little brother who was actually just waiting for Zach to give him money, "You must see that lady often. During this period, she has ordered a lot of your takeaways. So, who is she?"
"Mr. Lance's new girlfriend~" What? !
