Where is Zach? Sitting under the guardrail on the second floor. Vertex 23S. The fastest update. What is he doing? Sit back and wait.
The delivery boy who had left did not give any other meaningful information except giving a certain woman the title of James' girlfriend. But, one thing, Zach asked, "When did you order this takeout?"
The answer was a complacent "It was downstairs two minutes ago, let's hurry~"
Two minutes ago, Zach was running. So, Zach decided to wait here.
When Zach interacts with an intelligent person, he notices. Do you understand that this woman will come back? takeout? It's just this woman's way of confirming whether anyone is here.
Sure enough, ten minutes later. The takeaway boy appeared at the door again with takeout.
Zach turned sideways on the second floor and cast a red gaze, "Same as before, there is no one here, go back with takeout."
A game between two smart people, it’s just that Zach is a vampire and he has a cheat.
Ten minutes later, the takeaway boy appeared at the door again with takeout.
Same as above.
Another ten minutes. Another ten minutes...
"Tsk." Sam was starting to get impatient, "How did that woman keep the delivery boy coming? Does she know how to control people's hearts? Haha." Naturally, the tone was sarcastic.
"Simple." Zach deliberately imitated a woman's voice, artificially, "'Oh, I'm so sorry, I haven't arrived yet~ But ten minutes, I will be there in ten minutes~ Can you give me back in ten minutes? Send it over~'"
After hearing this, Sam said in a weird tone, "She'd better be very beautiful to be able to pull off such a trick."
Zach shrugged and continued to imitate, "'More tips~'"
Sam lost his tone, "Humans are really easy to manipulate."
"You were once human." It's boring to wait, let's talk.
"Aren't we all~" Sam actually smiled, but had no intention of continuing the topic, "Do you really think that is James' new girlfriend?"
"No." Zach shook his head, and there was no confirmation or hesitation in his tone. It was just an ordinary statement.
"Why?" Sam asked sincerely, "Don't mention that female reporter Kate. I think that reporter will hide in Newton for the rest of her life. Haha, even if she and James are, hey, it's over."
"Given James' personality, especially now that he thinks all the alien races in Barton want to hate him, do you think he would be in the mood to meet a girl and date her, and then leave the girl here alone while he himself is hiding in Grande? "
"That's true." Sam was not ready to give up his point of view, "But why did the delivery boy think that woman was James' girlfriend? It must have been the woman herself who said it." Sam deliberately used the word "yes" The tone of experience was, yes, that kind of mysterious confidence, "A girl would never joke about such a thing."
"She doesn't have to say it herself." Zach didn't have a better topic to talk about. Hey, let's just talk about it. "Any woman who comes into James' house is his girlfriend."
Sam was quiet for a while and said in a low and weird tone, "Why, is James so talented?"
If Sam had an entity, or even an image that could make Zach look past him, Zach would definitely give him a speechless eye roll, "What are you thinking about? It's because of Georgina. Georgina used to work down there. , there are many of her friends here.”
"Oh." Sam understood, "After a relationship that ended badly, if the ex-girlfriend's friends look at the people around the guy, the girls will be their new girlfriends."
Hey, I can’t explain this clearly, but it happens in everyone’s life, for example. "The other day I saw that scumbag with a girl he didn't know. He was really classless. You are much prettier than her. Scumbags are all blind!" Look, I can't explain it clearly, but that's the feeling.
The little brother is here again. Zach glanced sideways and cast the same red gaze, but before he spoke...
"Tsk, it's dragging on forever." Sam complained.
Zach changed his words, "There is still no one here. Put your things down. If she asks you to come up again, just... scold her." Zach curled his lips.
The little brother accepted the order in confusion, left the takeout and left.
"Do you think that woman will change the takeout list and continue to get people to test it? I think there are more takeout orders than this one."
Zach shook his head, "No, only the Time Elf is downstairs. Recently, she can provide information on whether anyone has been in or out of here. When she comes back, she can go to the store to confirm first."
"Why are you so sure that she will come back?" This is a good question, but Zach is not prepared to answer it.
Ten more minutes.
"Here she comes," Sam said.
"I heard it, be quiet." The sound of the elevator stopping was neither too loud nor too quiet. Zach remained in a covered sitting position and waited emotionlessly.
The iron door was opened, and there was the sound of footsteps walking in. Soon, it came into contact with the garbage all over the floor, making a small crunching sound. Zach didn't move.
"James Lance?" The same female voice sounded on the phone, "Are you there?"
The long exhalation seems to indicate the owner's relaxation, followed by the sound of plastic bags and lunch boxes. The woman downstairs actually opened the takeaway that had been delivered many times.
A flash of dark red began to peek out from Zach's side. Zach curled his lips and waved away, making a quiet gesture to the air.
After the sound of eating continued for a while, it was the sound of packaging being thrown away carelessly, definitely not a trash can. The sound of movement sounded again, accompanied by a gasp that seemed to be exerted, a small scraping sound of paper, and an irritated, "Uh."
Move again.
Zach changed his position because the direction was towards the stairs.
The steps were a little brisk, indicating that the master had not expected the situation he would encounter next.
Zach tilted his head and watched the woman holding a pile of cash and bonds appear on the stairs, "Hello."
The other party made no move. Zach pointed to James' bedroom, "Are you looking for a bag? I think Mr. Lance has it in his closet."
The other party still made no move.
Speaking of which, who is this woman? Never seen it.
"Not talking?" Zach shrugged, not ready to stand up, "And not running?" What a sincere question.
The other party has made some movement.
"Who are you?! Why are you here?! Leave quickly or I'll call the police!" I'm afraid this woman has gone crazy.
"Just in time, Detective James Lance is missing. When you call the police, by the way..."
There was no interruption, but Sam interrupted, "What nonsense are you talking to her about? Are you going to do it or should I?"
Zach ignored it and said, "Explain this situation to the North District Police Station."
"Who are you?" Her tone softened. It was the woman who had realized that she could no longer frighten the sitting guy.
Of course, Zach is not a delivery boy.
"Zachary Grande. You?"
The woman unexpectedly dropped the money in her arms, which was estimated to be at least hundreds of thousands, "You are that Grande!!" Her face was filled with anger!
"I know there are four in Grande." Zach counted Alice among them (Derek, Benjamin, himself), "Which one are you talking about?"
"You are the Grande who caused my family to lose everything!! That Toledo!!"
The key words are, family, losing everything, Toledo.
Zach raised his eyebrows, "Oh~" He was confused. It couldn't be called a sudden realization. It could only be said that he had a premonition. "You are, Miss Lister." Want to know where Zach's premonition came from? Referring to the cash and bonds scattered on the stairs, "Isn't there something left here?"
Does anyone still remember who arranged James's loft apartment? Liszt.
