"Thank you for staying with me all day. Apex 23S. The fastest updated." Yuehua expressed her gratitude to Weiss, "You have abided by our agreement. Now, it's my turn~" Yuehua made an invitation, "Come in , stay for dinner, if you want~I don’t mind~"
Weiss nodded dully and stepped into Yuehua's home. Looks like this guy had a day he'll never forget. Zach was watching TV in the living room and waved to Wes, "Are you okay, Detective Wes?"
The title was added to help Wes sober up.
The effect is good. Wes shook his head vigorously and walked towards Zach.
"How were you today?" Zach was not being polite. Zach knew that Wes wanted something from Yuehua, so before talking to Wes about the topic that Zach really cared about, he asked Wes what he had gained.
Wes sat down next to Zach, with an indescribable feeling of struggle on his face. Wes took a note book out of his pocket, opened it, and showed it to Zach.
Zach glanced at the note with some unfamiliar names written on it, "This is it?"
"Among the passers-by we met on the road today, Yuehua told me that the citizens of Newton will die in these three days." Weiss's face continued his struggle, "But Yuehua refused to tell me what happened to these people." Damn it! She said it wouldn’t be any fun!”
Zach raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh." He also took out a list and said, "Just right, let's compare them and see if there are any overlaps."
Wes's face changed, he grabbed the list that Zach took out, and said excitedly, "This is it!"
Zach nodded, "The list obtained by Angel Crowley from the souls of users who have died in Xiaobai."
Wes immediately started comparing, and he was very efficient. He immediately ticked off five names, and then looked at Zach expectantly.
Zach knew what Wes was expecting, gave him a smile, and took out a small medicine bottle from his pocket.
"This is it!" Wes's current language ability is considered to be disabled by emotion.
Zach nodded again, kept smiling, and crossed out the five names that Wes had just checked out, "Are you feeling better now, Detective Wes~"
You all understand what happened, right
There are two lists, one is for novice users, and the other is for people in Newton who will die in the past few days. The names that overlap with the two are the Newtons who will die from novice withdrawal reactions in the past few days. people.
If Wes's continuous indescribable struggle from the time he appeared to the present is because as a police detective he is powerless to deal with the death that appears in front of him, Zach has saved Wes... Well, although he only saved five people, at least he was one To begin with~ after all~ what Wes wants is to save the people of Newton, right~
As expected, Wes's face relaxed, and he reached for the medicine bottle in Zach's hand.
Zach dodged and smiled at Wes, "I'll keep these."
Weiss was stunned for a moment, but then he smiled reassuringly, not realizing at all that this was just Zack's decision to hold the vampire's future firmly in his own hands and never let the police detectives get involved. Weiss, "I'm still worried that we don't have any novices to maintain the lives of Newton novice users. I'm still thinking about whether to go back to Barton and get the noobs left by Barton."
Barton does still have Xiaobai, there are wizards, Benjamins, and the police.
This reminded Zach, "Haha, don't worry, I will arrange everything~" Zach's decision, while the fantasy man Richie obtained the novices bit by bit from Winston, all of Barton's novices were taken care of. Collect it and hold it in your own hands.
Weiss was still reasonable, "Where did you get the Xiaobai in your hand?"
Zach didn't lie, nor did he tell the whole truth, "Some people in Newton now have a very strong desire to survive~so~" he raised an eyebrow at Wes.
"Oh, Newton Phantom, Richie." Wes did not disappoint Zach. Human beings who fully accept the existence of alien races can always consider the alien factors in this world. Then, he shouted in front of Zach with complete confidence. In one breath, he said, "I'm relieved now. You've got clues, and angels and phantoms are assisting you." He looked at Zach with firm eyes, "We can save Newton!"
Zach's smile that he had retained from just now continued, "Yes, we can save Newton." The following are some words that apologize to Wes for his unconditional trust, but they are related to the future of the entire vampire group, "It's all because of you, thinking of Find a way to save them."
Wes felt shy in an instant. Don't think too much, it was just an instinctive reaction, "I...I didn't do anything. The key is because of you! Just like in Barton, everything can be solved because of you." Very sincere Looking at Zach, "Now Newton, it's because of you, the black witch, the angel, the phantom, that you will help us!" Zach wanted to elicit what Wes said, but Wes said, "You are the one who controls the present." situation, I’m really relieved!”
Zach looked away and kept smiling, "Then I will try my best not to disappoint you~"
One thing to explain here
Wes' proposal to save the Newtonians did not give a limited ending. This means that Weiss knows that there are two ways to 'resurrect' a novice user who has successfully 'cultivated' into a 'living corpse'. Witchcraft and vampires. Don't forget that Wes was involved in Patton's novice incident from beginning to end.
The reason why Wes, as the person who figured out the way to save the Newtonians, does not dictate the final outcome is obviously not because Wes, a human, has Zach, a vampire, who has the vision for the vampire's own future. At least we can be sure of one thing. According to Weiss's world view, whether the resurrected person is a human or a vampire, it doesn't matter to him, right
Wes just because he understands that humans can play a small role in this rescue operation. He originally proposed this method with the intention of asking Zach for reference. It would definitely require Zach and the aliens in Newton to expend a lot of energy on the rescue plan. Wes did not feel that he was qualified to specify a specific result.
This is what we have been saying before. Wes hopes to understand and respect Zack's decision for the future of the vampire himself. From the beginning, Zack's only real defense is short-sightedness, arrogance of human fans, life and death. James Lance is the only one who refuses to let go of his childish prejudices!
Zach gave Wes time to enjoy a brief moment of relaxation, "Then can I ask you a favor?"
"Of course!" It's very direct, and it also determines what Zach will do next, giving equal trust without threatening his true intentions.
"I don't want James to cause trouble." Same directness, Zach didn't act anything, it was a real expression of helplessness.
Weiss answered quickly, so it was confirmed that it was true, "He won't cause trouble." He waved his hand and said, "I didn't even tell him about the idea of relying on 'living corpses' to save Newton people."
Zach was a little surprised, "You didn't discuss it with him?" There was a real problem between the pair.
Wes also looked helpless, "'living corpse'." Looking at Zach, "Can you imagine, people can wake up again before I say 'living corpse', James heard The 'living zombie' has definitely jumped up and started fighting with me. How could I tell him."
The essence is still the same reason as before. Weiss knew very well that in this rescue plan, the alien race was the main controller. Humans were not even qualified to watch. It was very likely that the humans who were watching were mistaking the living corpses for dead people, so they were just trying to save people.
Unexpectedly, Zach was satisfied with the situation, "Oh." Then he smiled at Wes, "So, how are you going to spend these days in Newton?"
Zach didn't mean to belittle the role of the two Barton detectives as foreign aid in Newton, but the fact was that it couldn't be whitewashed. After all, James and Wes came here because of the Newton case. Even if it was for the sake of the Barton Police Department, it was impossible for the two of them to return to Barton without making any contribution to the case.
Wes's eyes returned to his own note. In addition to the five names that have been temporarily crossed out, there are still some names that cannot be confirmed for the time being, whether they are novice users or died due to other incidents. Gangweis said that if Yuehua didn't tell him, "it won't be that there is nothing to do."
The timing is right. Yuehua came over and handed Weiss a sketchbook, which he had already opened, "Is it worth the hard work of staying with me today~"
Weiss looked at the portrait drawn by Yue Hua with surprise. This was no longer a sketch. After coloring, it could almost be used as a photo of the first scene! "It's worth it!" Weiss looked at Yuehua, "Thank you!"
Yue Hua smiled back and said, "Half an hour for dinner~" No more interruptions.
Wes closed the sketch that could be used as a wanted poster and looked at Zach, "Because our Barton Police Department used smuggling to cover up Xiaobai's influence in the incident, the Newton Police Department still doesn't know the true cause of those deaths. The reason and the characterization of the entire unnatural death case are also very vague.”
Zach could roughly guess what Wes was going to say, so he didn't interrupt and let Wes finish.
Weiss glanced at his note first, "Most of the death cases piled up in the Newton Police Department now have no clues." He was slightly irritated and helpless, "I'm not going to deny that the vast majority of deaths are caused by Xiaobai. , but I am sure that in addition to the deaths caused by Xiaobai, there are many cases in Newton that have nothing to do with Xiaobai." indicating the reason for the note. Then, Weiss squeezed the sketchbook given by Yue Hua hard, "And someone is taking advantage of Xiaobai's death, the fact that the Newton police have no clue, and reusing the corpse to commit crimes!"
Zach could answer the call, "For example, someone is using the corpse caused by Xiaobai to destroy the Newton University project."
Weiss nodded vigorously, "The deaths caused by most novice cases are too random, and there is no relationship between the victims. Except for the commonality of the way of death, there are no clues that can lead to the truth." Haha, that's the fact, Newton The only possibility for the police department to get closer to the truth was cut off by James and Wes's smuggling gang. Everyone is already very clear about the relationship, so I won't repeat it here. "The only way forward for the Newton Police Department now is to These are cases surrounding deaths caused by Xiaobai.”
Companion, Zach somewhat appreciated Wes's choice of words, "Do you think the current Newton police can't distinguish between the companion case and Xiaobai's original case?"
"How do they tell the difference? There are no other clues at all!" Weiss told the truth, "The bodies dumped at the Newton University engineering site are their only clue!"
Zach nodded, intentionally inviting Miley to have a good chat with Wes. This idea is reasonable. Miley has revealed the significance of Newton University to the Newton government. At the same time, as an anti-social practitioner, she has analyzed the nature of the destruction of the Newton University project site.
Now that the Newton Police Department has no clue about the truth about the corpses caused by Xiaobai, anti-social elements may be able to become the human society in Newton and accept the theory that there are a large number of deaths.
Before Zach could say anything, Miley herself leaned over with a smile on her face. Alas, Zach and Wes didn’t avoid anyone in their conversation, and Miley was listening in all the time.
Zach stopped recommending him and gave up his position.
The opening is still worth listening to, because, haha. Remember the first time Miley and Wes met at Grande
Yes, there is still a huge hole that needs to be filled in Miley and Wes's understanding of each other. Wes still doesn't know that Miley is also someone who is well versed in the alien and human 'shared' society.
"You don't look surprised that I came over~" Miley began.
Wes's answer, "I was already surprised when I found out that you went to Newton for a spring outing with Louise and Murphy (two vampires)." Wes didn't seem completely clueless, "When Kate comes back Before, when you came back to live in Grande, I guessed again, you know the alien race, you know the Western Sabbat, right?"
It’s not surprising. If you still have memories, you should be able to recall that when Miley first came to Barton, Wes once told Zach bluntly not to let Miley Lister, the last orphan of the Lister family, get close to James. scholar. Of course, Wes's reason at the time was that in the struggle for vampire interests, Miley, who looked like a victim who was unaware of everything, would affect James's mind.
Wes's warning about Miley should have been there from the beginning.
"Haha. You are smarter than I expected~" Miley also glanced at Zach who had walked away, "Then, will you expose me to your friend, James Lance?"
"It depends on what you are planning." Wes also glanced at Zach.
Zach just listened to the opening out of curiosity and had no intention of participating. He walked steadily to the kitchen to find Yue Hua to help with the dinner that was predicted to start in half an hour.
"Bottom line~" Miley was also unambiguous, "I want James Lance to be alive and he will be useful to me~"
"Then I have no objection." Weiss was straightforward enough, "Then, what do you want to tell me?"
"It depends on what you are planning." Wes also glanced at Zach.
