The mirror appeared in Grande's showroom. Jian stepped out of the folded mirror and said, "I'm not familiar with funerals in your alliance. When will Zach come back from the funeral?" He asked Siris who was looking at the counter.
"At least noon." Siris replied.
'Jian' didn't respond. He walked up the back corridor from the door behind the counter and looked at the living area. The direction it was looking at was the second floor of the living area, where Hank lived.
"What are you going to do?" Sires looked at Jian a little cautiously.
The main reason is that the method of 'checking' the whereabouts and questioning in the past few days is a bit too suspicious, as if it is telling others that it wants to do something while Zach is not in Grande.
'Jian' turned around and looked at Siris once, "Have you seen Zach today?"
"Uh, no."
This is the truth. Wasn't Siris asked out by Sibera yesterday? It was already afternoon, so Siris went home directly to Pai Siying. Then when Sires came to Grande in the morning, Zach had already gone to the Holy Child Church to attend the funeral.
"I remember that you would go to the mill every day to get Madison's work report. Where is today's report? Show me." 'Jian' is becoming more and more suspicious.
Siris blinked his eyes, "The mill is already for Allen's funeral. Even if the work report is there, it is not for us Grande." Siris felt a little bad when he said this, it seemed that regret…
Do you know why Siris feels this way? Because this former farmer’s life becomes entangled with our vampire Zach’s life, it’s in the mill~
Everyone remembers the moment when they met Zach~ They have special feelings for this moment.
It's a pity that our Zach himself doesn't remember much about the moment when he 'met' himself.
'Jian' frowned, as if he was irritated about something, and stood on the back porch for a while, ignoring Siris.
Siris looked at Jian for a while, not knowing what Jian was thinking. In fact, these two guys are not very familiar with each other. Just like all the relationships between the characters in Grande, everyone has a relationship with Zach, each other? Probably just a familiar face.
'Jian' walked down the back porch and went to the living area.
"What are you going to do?" Sires didn't mean to stop the 'Jian', it was self-consciousness. Zach couldn't do anything with the 'Jian', and Siris didn't think that he, a fourth-generation Cappadocia, could do anything. It's a reminder, "Hank is still here..."
"He has long adapted to the life of a vampire." 'Jian' didn't even look back, raised his hand and said something. As he stepped, the mirror flipped around his body, and the surrounding light was refracted and distorted. The Grande's backyard in ordinary vision was It seemed to be shortened in the turning light. In two steps, the God of the Republic actually stepped through the backyard and entered the living area.
'Jian' paid no attention to the employees in the living area. Its goal was very clear. It went directly upstairs to where Hank lived.
The goal of the 'Jian' was clear, but other employees at Grandry were not cooperating. Don't forget that what you are looking at is the face of Miss Hannah, a western woman who once blackmailed Grande.
"Haha~ Is this young lady staying in Grande~?"
'Jian' glanced at the gossiping employee, who had two huge black circles on his head -
Hank didn't show up at all during this time, so no one thought he was sleeping. The blue and black spots around the eyes of every Grand employee are symptoms of their anemia. They themselves are not aware that their bodies are being eaten away bit by bit by the old man in their eyes in this living area? No, it is analysis and transformation. Hank, it's LeSembra.
'Jian' did not respond to the gossiping employee. He went upstairs and knocked directly on Hank's door, "You open the door yourself, or I go in by myself."
The door opened. In an apartment without any light, an old man stood in the center of the living room, staring at the TV.
The biggest event in Barton North now - James Lance's wedding - was being shown live on the screen.
This has nothing to do with citizen privacy, this is all city propaganda.
'Jian' entered the apartment, closed the door and turned off the TV...
Hank's dark red eyes stared at the 'jian' who interrupted his 'peeping' at the gathering of federal elites, "I'm watching!"
Hank's voice is the same as before, with all the energy it deserves.
"There's nothing interesting to see." 'Jian' waved his hand and kicked Winston, who was sleeping soundly on the sofa. This guy has been living in Grande for the past few days... Strictly speaking, he lives here with Hank. The emotions of the previous generation Grande were indeed profound. During Hank's transformation period, Zach hardly spent any time with Hank other than using blood to provide Hank with basic education. He was all Winston. "Let him go back to Newton."
Winston opened his eyes and saw the face of the woman he killed with his own hands. It wasn't like he was panicking. Winston had long been used to Grandery's presence, but his sleepiness was gone.
Hank glanced at Winston and nodded, actually agreeing with Jian's request.
Winston stood up, straightened his appearance, and walked away.
"What are you going to do?" Hank watched Winston leave until Winston's footsteps disappeared. When Hank asked the word 'Jian', he hesitantly walked towards the window.
"I was in the west just now, paying attention to the trends of the Sabbat and understanding the social structure of the Sabbat." 'Jian' looked at Hank's actions without making any comments, "There is something that caught my attention. The privatization of the funeral industry in the west. Reform." 'Jian' paused as Hank opened the curtains.
The bright sunshine finally broke through the thick curtains and rushed into Hank's apartment.
'Jian' told Siris that Hank had already adapted to the vampire's way of existence, and he was indeed not lying. Hank faced the light and just squinted his eyes slightly, fading the red in his eyes and turning them into his original color.
'Jian' continued, "I should probably ask Zach these questions. After all, the privatization of the funeral industry in the west was something given to him by the Sabbat from the Toledo clan. But now, he is working and it is inconvenient. I think it is better not to It’s good to bother him.”
Hank squinted his eyes and looked back. He was tired of the light and couldn't see clearly. Hank seemed to give 'Jian' a very subtle eye roll, "I didn't know you were so considerate of others." Of course it was sarcasm, when had 'Jian' ever cared about Zach's 'convenience'
"Of course, we're not familiar with each other at all. How do you know me?" 'Jian' seemed to be playing rogue. Waving his hand, "The funeral industry in the west turns out to be a government agency. It is the worst position in the government agency. Those who work in this field are also low-level aliens from the Sabbat."
This is a fact. It seems that 'Jian' relied on the body that Zach created for it to obtain a body that can move freely in the Federation, and it did collect some things. For example, Zach has personally investigated this fact about the funeral industry in the West. The practitioners are all cautious aliens who live in the West. While receiving the lowest-level salary from the government, they occasionally have to adopt and take care of a baby for a hamburger. Human teenagers... yes, I'm talking about Dog Brother.
Hank didn't react at all. After giving 'Jian' a look, he continued to look at the sunshine outside the window. 'Jian' couldn't see Hank's sight, but I can tell you directly that the direction Hank was looking at was Grand. Office on the second floor. Although Zach is not here now, Hank's eyes make it seem as if Zach is behind the office window. Unable to spy on James' wedding from the screen, Hank seems to have put all his passion into snooping into the office.
'Jian' seemed anxious to involve Hank in the conversation, "But there is a situation that even the vampires in the Sabbat are not very clear about." 'Jian' walked a little closer to Hank and said, "The people in Vega City and several surrounding cities The foreigners, because they have met Zach and received personal guidance from Zach, are very active in promoting the privatization process of the funeral industry because they feel that they will work under a good 'leader' in the future. But besides them, there are even bigger Western undertakers, those aliens, are not happy about the privatization of the funeral industry."
In any case, Hank has been a mortician for his whole life. Even if you don't care about what comes out of Jian's mouth, you often hear about the progress of the funeral industry in the west. It's impossible not to be curious.
Hank withdrew his gaze from outside and stared at Jian who was approaching. Once typical old Hank shows up, "None of my business!"
'Jian' did not directly explain, "The reason for the dissatisfaction of those alien races is that after privatization, their already low social status will become worse because of the loss of government agencies."
For the time being, I ignored the reason why Jian asked Hank for such a reason. If you listen to what Jian said, you will find that Jian was really talking about a very important event.
"So in addition to the good progress in the privatization of the funeral industry in Weijia City and surrounding areas, the situation of the funeral industry in the west is not optimistic in the scope of radiation." 'Jian' paused for a moment, and wanted to explain why it obtained the rights to the west. Social intelligence will obtain the content of the funeral industry. "In addition, now, Zach's only Toledo descendant in the west, Charlie, is detained by Lesembra, and his life and death are unknown to the outside world. Only in Vega City, there is a Toledo The funeral home where Dog Brother, who has multiple descendants, is located, knows that Lesembra dare not really do anything to Charlie, and continues to firmly promote the process of the funeral industry in Vega. The process of the larger-scale funeral industry in the west , almost at a standstill.”
Remember, 'Jian' secretly contacted Charlie, gave suggestions, and helped each other. 'Jian' did show some sincerity in the west behind Zach's back. At least, no one except him, the God of the Republic, could do the messaging between Dog Brother and Charlie.
Wait a minute, it can't be said that 'Jian' did this behind Zach's back. 'Jian' didn't deliberately do anything behind Zach's back, especially after Zach and 'Jian' reached a consensus on dealing with the Sabbat. It’s just that Zach didn’t know about the geographical restrictions.
Hank finally felt a little more involved, but still stared at Jian, "Is it useful to tell me this?"
good question. What was geographically restricted for Zach was the same for Hank. It is meaningless for Jian to talk about the troubles encountered by the funeral industry in the west. In this small city in the east of the federation, no one can care about what happens in the west.
"I don't know if it's useful, but I know one thing. You've been waiting for the day Zach left Grande, right?" 'Jian' also answered Hank, "For a long time, you and The news that Zach hinted to you Grande employees is that Zach will go to the west to take over the funeral industry in the west at some point, right?"
Hank seemed to have a premonition, "What do you mean! He (Zach) will still be unable to go because of some small obstacles to the privatization of funerals in the west!" Hank was not anxious, he kept talking like this, full of energy.
"You don't know if he will." 'Jian' kept a calm tone from beginning to end, "That's the problem, isn't it. You don't know what Zach is thinking."
Wait, what exactly does 'Jian' want to do?
Siris has asked this question before, and Hank has asked it several times. If you ask it again, you won't be answered, so don't ask it.
Hank's eyes left the 'Jian' and returned to the window again. Across the full sunshine in the backyard, there was no Zach in the office for the time being. "Who told you I don't know what he is thinking!"
'Jian' raised an eyebrow, "I do know that you asked Winston to ask Zach for his blood. You are Lesembula. I understand that after you tasted his blood, you can say that you are very You know Zachary Toledo as a vampire better than you have lived with him for so many years. But can you confirm? This person never does things according to everyone's expectations, and will honestly follow the script you expect. go?"
Hank continued to look at Grande's office, "Huh!" He was still the old Hank everyone was familiar with. "What does the script I'm looking forward to have to do with you! Do you care!" But Hank was definitely not the old Hank. Now, Lesembra, who has been dormant in his apartment for so long, is about to begin his vampire life. "You are so concerned about the progress of the funeral industry in the West because you expect Zachary Torre to be more capable." Enter the Sabbat smoothly." Hank paused, "I don't even need to taste your blood, huh, if you have it. I can guess that your actions at the Sabbat are not smooth at all, right? You were The three vampire clans currently sitting in the Sabbat are restricted. Although they all know that you and Zach are collaborators, but Zach is not in the Sabbat, they still treat you as a foreign god from the Republic and will not tolerate you in their presence. Let the vampires have their own free reign."
It's not that Hank's IQ suddenly upgraded. Hank's IQ has always been there. It's just that the old Hank's identity made him... too lazy to use it. As you all know, many old humans have this mentality. But now, we have discussed it a long time ago, we can no longer add the prefix 'old' to Hank's name, can we
The person talking to 'Jian' now is the immortal second-generation Lesembula.
Hank continued, "You need Zach to help ease the relationship with the vampires in the Sabbat, so, hum, you come to encourage me, thank me with the crisis, and hope that I will drive Zach away as soon as possible, right." Hank He turned around and glanced at Jian, "You should give up this idea as soon as possible, I won't help you." (To be continued)
