"Zach?!"
The patched iron door was opened, and Kate's surprised face almost pressed against Zach's, "You're here!"
Just when Zach thought Kate was going to kiss him, Kate's head tilted, "And she brought guests!" She was talking about Roy, and then completely ignored Roy's reaction, "Please tell me what happened to Barton, the twisted human being-" Alien incident!”
Hehe, without giving Zach any reaction, he grabbed Zach and pulled him to James' house, "And you! You came to my dear husband to deal with the incident..."
Zach pushed away Kate's overly enthusiastic hand and exited the door expressionlessly, "Why does your house smell like some creature died in it?" It stinks. Really stinks.
It is said that a woman's touch can fill a home with beautiful fragrance. But apparently the newly married Lance couple are not in this 'all said'. Zach had come to this home countless times when it was owned by only James. Now, this home has a pair of owners, the best combination in common sense, a man and a woman. But look at Roy, he has already retreated into the elevator in a stink. It's really rare to be able to make a vampire smell bad.
The corner of Kate's mouth twitched, "I hope something died here!" Kate turned back and stared at the sofa somewhere in the room, "But obviously my dear husband is still alive!"
These words...
Zach pursed his lips and entered the room. He glanced in the direction of the sofa. What seemed to be hair squirmed behind the backrest, and then half of his body was exposed. It's James.
Even from the distance of the door, Zach could see the oil and dirt on the skin of the man of the house. And Zach also confirmed the source of the stench, which was James.
James spoke, "Gaga..." He closed his mouth, "Ahem." Cleared his throat, "What happened." Without a tone, he said, "Twisted human-alien incident."
Zach's face started to look bad, and he didn't reply to James' words. He asked Kate, "How many days has he been like this?" Just by visual inspection, he knew that James had not gone out, talked, or taken a shower during this period. No... I'm afraid I haven't even left the sofa. He could stay still even on the extremely uncomfortable sofa in James' house, which was really... amazing.
"Send his father away, and that's what happened after he came back from Grande!" Kate answered with her eyes closed, trying to hold back her emotions, "I think I married a piece of meat!"
You all know that sometimes when someone tries to insult others, they will refer to them as animals, plants, insects... in short, something lower than the human species, right? Kate is very ahead of her time. In his eyes, her husband is not even a named species, just a piece of meat.
Zach thought for a while, "Roy Zmich, Kate Lance, you already know each other, why don't you go to the coffee shop below to sit for a while."
"No!" It was Roy who objected, "I want to follow you..." He actually walked out of the elevator, took two steps forward, stepped into James' iron door, and then stepped back with a twisted look on his face. , "Kate Lance! I haven't tried Federal East coffee yet!" Really true.
It's not a good statement, but the unnecessary people have left, and the combination of vampire and police detective has reappeared. The first thing Zach did was pick up James on the sofa and throw him into the bathroom, "Take a shower."
After waiting for a long time, there was the sound of water, and then Zach said, "Is it because Coulson came to you later to ask about the death of Detective Levine?" At the same time, Zach was collecting garbage around the sofa, including wine bottles and lunch boxes. …
"Why do you ask now that you know?" James' voice came out along with the sound of water.
It's like this. We all know James' character very well. He is not the kind of guy who gives up on himself casually. With the way he is acting now, something must have really hit him. Well, just like when Georgina was kidnapped.
What's even worse about Detective Levine's case than Georgina's is that Georgina was kidnapped because James was on the side of the victim of justice. But in Detective Levin's case, James was the 'evil victimizer' party.
Quotes must be added. We all know that James is not evil. He just chose to keep himself from being involved after discovering that Detective Levin's case was a matter between inheritors. Then in the process, he accidentally contributed to Darcy's complete control of the incident, turning Detective Levin's death into a complete drama.
A human died in a collision of ideas between two inheritors. And he, James, not only did nothing, but also became an accomplice in covering up the facts.
This is the basis for why James is so decadent now.
Zach once again figured out James. It was too simple, "Did Coulson say something?" Zach didn't feel that when James decided to go to the devil and get the truth about the case through the undead, there was no Be mentally prepared for these. Zach also confirmed that James behaved normally from the time of the case to the wedding and when General Lance was sent away after the wedding. So, someone must have done something on the basis of James's already uneasy heart, and cultivated this foundation into a big tree and bore fruit, "Is it the way Coulson talked about Detective Levine? Let Are you suddenly unable to objectively think that this is just an interracial incident and bring personal emotions?" Zach threw the huge garbage bag at the door and continued to ask.
The sound of water continued for a while, "Did you know." Without any tone, "Coulson is the best man at Levin's wedding."
Well. Do you remember the photos Ravenci saw at Mrs. Levine's house
The bathroom door opened open, and James' wet head poked out, "If Wes is murdered one day! I will kill the murderer myself! I don't care if the murderer is a human or an alien... or even a god!"
This is not a good sign. The words James finally used his emotions to say were completely inconsistent with his status as a police detective.
Zach put James' head back into the bathroom and closed the door again, "So you just felt the same, and then you couldn't help but immerse yourself in the hatred in your fantasy." Zach concluded, before James could Leaning his head out emotionally again, Zach had already pressed the bathroom door, "If one day, the friendship between you and Wes is so weak that you miss his funeral for a career wedding, I can start now I sympathize with your realization just now.”
Zach showed no mercy. Sorry Detective Coulson, it is human nature to know that the future of the living is more important than the farewell of the dead, but if you miss it, you are missing it.
James scratched the door hard behind the bathroom door. From this mental state alone, we can already conclude that Zach has saved the decadent James...
Of course, James was excited for a reason, "Do you have the nerve to say such a thing! Did you give Coulson a choice! The cooperative relationship between the mill in the South District and the South District Police Department! If Coulson is not at my wedding Is there any other opportunity for him to contact my father? Does Coulson still have a chance to show his loyalty to the Lance family’s illusory plan to cultivate me that you fabricated?!”
"No more." Zach was not ready to act stupid at this time. The fact is also the case. Chief Colon, in his capacity as the chief of the Southern District Police Department, was deliberately arranged by Zach to meet with General Lance in Glendale during the mill transaction for Allen's funeral (the day General Lance came to Patton) dinner), but Coulson? Oh, Coulson's only identity is James's ex-partner, ex-partner. What chance would Coulson have of running up to General Lance and becoming familiar with him
But Zach didn’t feel that this was entirely his fault, “But wasn’t it because you childishly embarrassed Director Darcy and squeezed me out of the opportunity to attend the wedding, forcing the North District Police Department to arrange a funeral in a hurry. That led to Levin’s death. Does the funeral coincide with your wedding? James, you still have to be a little responsible."
James was already banging on the door over there, "I didn't know the relationship between Levin and Coulson at all at that time!! How did I know that I would let Coulson lose the opportunity to say goodbye to his friend!"
"Then the same thing, how would I know?" Zach easily sealed the bathroom door with one finger. Speaking of which, this door is really strong...
There was only the sound of water in the bathroom.
Zach would not let James return to decadence again. "Coulson also came to see me later. You know, I told him that Mrs. Levin entrusted me to investigate the truth, but I didn't tell any details. It's already like this It's been many days, if Coulson hasn't made any move, James, you understand. If Coulson can give up Levin continuously, it means nothing if you continue to be so entangled."
The truth is so simple, who doesn’t understand it? The difficult thing is whether you can lead by example.
Zach didn't block the door. James put on a towel and came out. He stared at Zach sullenly and went upstairs to find some clothes to wear.
Okay, James has completely returned to normal.
"I knew you just needed someone to yell at." Zach followed him upstairs. James' body was not unusual in Zach's eyes anyway. "And you are too embarrassed to yell at your wife Kate, after all, they are on their honeymoon... "
"Shut up!"
It's weird that Zach would shut up, "Choose something more formal."
James, who was holding the clothes, glanced at Zach and childishly put on a vest with a cartoon print on the chest.
"Whatever." Zach waved his hand, "I just hope that formal clothes can make you focus a little more." Zach was talking to himself, "But after all, I just want you to make a phone call. It doesn't matter if you don't wear it, as long as You’re comfortable.”
James glanced at Zach again, with concentration, "What are you calling? Let me tell you first, I am still on vacation, and my honeymoon is not over yet, unless there is really a twisted case..." James shook his head. He lowered his head and said, "No! Even if there is some twisted case, don't come to me! Go to Weiss!" This is tsundere.
From an objective analysis, probably half of the reason why James can slump on the sofa is that he is on honeymoon vacation and has no work to do! As you all know, people only get into trouble for no apparent reason when their balls hurt.
Uh, also, don’t complain about why James and Kate spent their honeymoon at home. I would like to ask James and Kate, these two humans, dare to go out to Barton for their honeymoon? If you dare to go out, die outside. It's not a joke.
So James absolutely hopes that Zach will come to him with some incident.
Zach smiled and deliberately taunted, "Kate doesn't seem to think so." He joked, "I'm curious, is marriage really just a task for humans? Just after the wedding, Kate saw you so decadent. On the one hand, is this kind of newlywed life really good?"
James twitched his lips, "She's not much better than me!" Fortunately, Zach sent Kate and Roy away. "If she thinks it's good for our marriage to lay out my father's criminal evidence in front of me every day, ..." In the end, James still didn't finish the harsh words.
Zach finally understood. No wonder James was so decadent when he was immersed in his own world. The real world wasn't that beautiful either.
Zach tilted his head, "Let's have a child." The sudden, inexplicable, and extremely real suggestion was, "Children can always provide some goals for a directionless marriage."
James' eyes were about to pop out of his head, "I won't take marriage advice from you!!"
"Then learn from me." Zach still suggested sincerely, "Murphy Assamat. You have heard the story, our marriage was ruined because we had no children..."
"Shut up!" It felt like James was really going to explode. "Did you just say phone call?! What phone call!" Ha, he did remember to interrupt Zach's life reflections with the main topic.
"Oh." Zach waved his hand very casually, "Telephone. I hope you call your father and ask him to take the lead in the upper class society in the West and refuse humans to buy vampire blood."
Three seconds later.
"What?!"
"You heard what I said~" Zach said with a relaxed expression, "The specific reason is very long to explain. You probably don't have the patience to listen to it." It is indeed very long. It takes a phone call from Sibella to ask Ryan Turning into a republican alien said, "Although this matter is not urgent, the sooner it is confirmed, the better. It is related to world peace. So, I hope you make this call now."
James was very direct, "I won't fight!"
"Then I'll go find your wife, Kate, and ask her to beat her." Zach said, turning around. "After all, in terms of awakening human self-esteem, rejecting vampire blood is quite in line with Kate's wishes, and she will agree." Zach didn't finish speaking. Before James stopped him, Zach couldn't shut up. "Haha, Kate is also very suitable to make this call. Not as a legal relative of General Lance, but as evidence of General Lance's crime." Holding the status of a reporter. It is impossible for your father to refuse~ Well, this seems to be more in line with my expectations~ So it was decided, I went to find Kate... "
James stopped in front of Zach, looking as gloomy as the James we are familiar with, "What on earth do you want to do?!"
"When you make this call, whether you use your willfulness as a son of man or your human self-esteem, you can achieve the result I want. I will explain it to you slowly." Zach kept smiling.
"*!" James rushed downstairs and went straight to the phone.
We don't have to wait for James to finish the call. We already know what Zach is going to explain anyway. We now reveal why Zach was so forceful and forced James to call before explaining-
Because of the vampire racial crisis, Zach didn't think James cared. If Zach had told James in advance that the central wizard family had a way to deal with the federation vampire group dominated by the Sabbat, Zach was not sure...who James would help.
So, don't look at Zach smiling, look at James going to make a phone call. Actually, Zach didn't want to laugh. It's all acting. (To be continued)
