A new day, a new beginning. Vertex 23S. The fastest update. Last time we came across a sentence like this, it was followed by... Fart, as long as people are alive, nothing is 'new'!
But this time, let’s be a little more reserved. After all, it’s not just a new day, it’s the beginning of a new year.
I'm sorry that there is no New Year's Eve atmosphere in Grande. It can't be helped, vampire? Ex-convict? Gee, what can everyone expect
The only thing that can confirm this major time change once a year is Alice's "We won't go to Parker Elementary School today. School is about to start. We made an appointment with Laura and the others to go to Lister Street to buy learning supplies."
Study supplies... Well, Zach could only assume that the high school regiment had the same attitude toward study as they did war. But it was rare that Alice mentioned Laura, "How's it going with Laura? Does Mrs. Barton still restrict you from being together?"
"Still." Alice was helpless, "But Laura has been working hard, and Mrs. Barton will eventually accept us." Be more positive, "I think."
Before leaving, Alice added, "Teacher Trisha has been admitted to the hospital to give birth and will give birth tomorrow."
Zach nodded to show that he understood and watched the little pink drive out of Grande. Then... chatted with James for a few words about Vega's case, and then watched the detective go to work. The New Year's morning passed just like that.
Everyone knows that Grande has nothing to do, he is extremely boring.
There was no sound even in the living area where trouble occasionally occurred. The day before yesterday, Old Hank asserted his authority and sent a poor guy back to prison... Yes, that poor guy whose name we don't even remember. Therefore, the living area has been as quiet as a tomb of the living dead these two days. Occasionally, two employees come out to clean. They are all afraid of being looked at by the people here in Grande. If they are caught by Old Hank, they will be thrown into prison. destiny.
In such an atmosphere, Zach was not even in the mood to bask in the early spring sun on the back porch. When he entered the showroom, looking for a job turned into Siris looking at the counter.
"How's Allen Funeral's going these days?" What's great, Zach was asking his employees about the status of their competitors.
"Absolutely." The thing in front of Siris was Alice's high school textbook. "Father (Nenad) occasionally comes over to complain about Allen's family affairs."
"For example?" Zach was just bored and looking for a topic.
"Chris and Sissy." Sires shook his head, "Young love, and Allen is starting to have a mid-life crisis." He glanced at Zach speechlessly, "A real mid-life crisis. Allen is worried. When he left his identity as Allen, he couldn't leave anything for his son Chris." Think about it, what can a father who has become a vampire leave for his human children? A lifelong psychological shadow
Zach is obviously more experienced in understanding this kind of thing, "So, like you, Allen is also having trouble changing his identity in the future." The difference is that Siris was lucky enough to be enlightened by Zach, Allen? Forget it, Zach is not so kind as to enlighten his competitors.
Sires nodded, "And Allen is even worse. He can't choose to build a human family because his son's girlfriend is Sissi. Chris's future family will only be Sissi's Yehir, not Alan. .”
"Didn't Chris and Sissy break up?" Zach was just telling the news he heard.
"Young love." Sires repeated, shook his head and sighed, and continued to flip through Alice's high school textbook.
Zach had to ask, "Why are you looking at this?" He glanced behind the counter at the magazine that Louise was reading when she was bored.
Zach curled his lips and said, "You can subscribe to some magazines that interest you." Because all Zach saw were women's magazines, things that Cyrus obviously didn't want to read, "Just put them in Grande's account." .”
"Oh, no need." Sires shook his head, "I just want to learn something." The voice became softer, "I didn't graduate from high school." Then the voice returned to normal, "Anyway, I have time, make up for it. Something that humans miss when they are young.”
Not a bad mentality about vampire life. Zach nodded and watched beside Siris. It’s boring anyway, look what high school students are learning now…
"The age of steam engines brought about changes in human civilization in one hundred and fifty years that could not be completed in thousands of years..." Zach read it unconsciously after reading it for a while, curled the corner of his mouth, "To be honest." Then he took the photo. Lower Sires, "Customer."
Siris was stunned for a moment, then quickly put away his high school textbooks, facing the door with an extremely unnatural smile on his face.
Zach smiled and said, "Relax, we are not a restaurant, but a funeral industry. There is no need to laugh. Just face it with normal emotions." He patted Siris and prepared to go to the office. "If it doesn't work, just send it up."
Siris adjusted his mood and nodded.
Ten minutes later... Sires gave up, and Zach's office was filled with people. In addition to the relatives of the deceased who were still in a state of rage, there were also police, hospital staff, lawyers, and people who looked like thugs. Guys... And Zach felt like he was just a passerby who came to see the excitement. The mess in Zach's office was so noisy that Zach's ears hurt.
Explain it.
The deceased... male, middle-aged, did not die from murder or a horrific accident. In other words, his body and organs remained intact. This is very important, read on. So how did he die? The police in Grande are not responsible for this now, so Zach doesn't know and we can't know. Now these police are responsible for
The deceased was a perfect organ donor, and coincidentally, the deceased was also a registered organ donor. However, his family obviously wanted to ignore the free will decision made by the deceased, forcibly violated the legal terms that had been signed, and went directly to the funeral.
The reason the police and lawyers got involved was that, according to the law, it was the family members who stole the body that already belonged to the hospital.
In the middle of the noisy voice, Zach said, "Please be quiet." To no avail, "Quiet!" Zach may have used a voice beyond the human range. It works.
Zach straightened up his appearance and said, "Where are the deceased."
Zach was praying that the gang had better not answer in the trunk.
"We are hiding!" the excited family members said, "We can't let these beasts steal a hair from my husband!!"
Zach stood up, as long as there was no corpse rotting within the Grand, it was enough, "This is a funeral home, here, providing the final rest for the deceased, so I feel that it is not the time for me to take over. . But, don’t mind me, if you need space to solve some things, this is yours.” He left the office.
What can I say, the world is a strange place.
