Grande, Lily and Logan are back.
Zach happened to bump into the two of them having an argument...in the room. Zach listened outside the door for a while, quite confused, and he didn't even hear what the two were arguing about.
Lily: "Tomatoes are potatoes, there is no difference between these two things!"
Logan: "How can these two things be the same! They are two completely different races!"
Lily: "It's the same thing I don't eat!"
Logan: "It's just that you don't want to eat! There are many people in the world who are willing to eat!"
The confusion was that Zach really didn't think the two would fight over food. So the tomatoes and potatoes here definitely represent something else.
"They've been arguing since they came back."
Zach glanced back. Annabelle was at the other end of the corridor, reporting to Zach what happened in Grandry while Zach was away. She takes the job of self-appointed secretary.
It was impossible to avoid communicating with Annabelle, but Zach still pursued the principle of minimalism, "What's the noise about?"
"When Logan was in Newton, his death was 'predicted' by the Black Witch."
Zach raised an eyebrow, Logan was dying? The way in which the Black Witch's 'prophecy' of death is incorrectly understood is that Logan's current stage of life as a human being is coming to an end. What this sentence means is that Logan's path to becoming an alien in the future has been determined in the eyes of the black witch.
Continuing with the minimalist principle, "What would Logan be?"
"Werewolf." Annabelle answered, and at the same time approached Zach, and consciously explained Zach's confusion, "You missed the beginning of their metaphor using ingredients. Before they argued about tomatoes and potatoes, there was another metaphor. , meat. The meat refers to the vampires, and then the tomatoes refer to the werewolves, and as for the potatoes, they refer to the remaining aliens."
Zach understood what Logan and Lily were arguing about.
In Lily's knowledge, only vampires have a bright future, and she has been pushing Logan to take the path of a vampire. In the context of Lily's Sabbat, this is true. Meat, a metaphor for vampires, is the only food Lily eats.
But Logan has always resisted becoming a vampire. With Logan's experience around Zach, there's nothing wrong with that. The life of a vampire is no better than the human life Logan is trying to escape. In addition to the meat that represents vampires, Logan's vision is broader and he also sees the vegetarian food that is placed next to the meat.
Lily's life in the Sabbat is like a potato, the life of any alien except vampires. tomato? There is no such thing as a tomato in the Sabbat. After the Sabbat, potatoes are no longer the only vegetarian food: in the world outside the Sabbat, the classification of aliens is no longer simply vampires and non-vampire aliens. Tomato Werewolf, now appears.
The core of this quarrel is that Logan did not completely disappoint Lily by choosing a potato lifestyle, but he still chose a tomato that was unfamiliar to Lily.
Lily has no idea about the living conditions of werewolves. She may be familiar with the history of werewolves and vampires because she was Root's secretary, but haha, the history of vampires and werewolves, especially if interpreted from the perspective of the Sabbat, can be confirmed. Would be something good.
Therefore, Lily's overall impression of werewolves could not be any better.
Therefore, the conclusion is the content of the argument that Zach heard: in Lily's eyes, tomatoes and potatoes are the same thing, and neither is a 'good' vampire in Lily's mind. In Logan's eyes, there are no 'good' races in this world, there are just races!
Another pair of people who were not on the same frequency. Zach stopped paying attention and went back to the bedroom to see Adam.
Annabell was very 'self-conscious' and followed Zach into the bedroom, continuing to report the missing information about Zach, "Your descendant, Mrs. Quinn, is here. She left half an hour ago."
Zach had already guessed it, because the bedroom was filled with new baby gear, and Zach knew that Bane couldn't afford it on his family income (Bane's wife would help take care of Adam when Zach was no longer there). Then Zach also knew that it was not Benjamin and Mokawe who bought it, so there was only one Mrs. Quinn who had said she would come to see the baby.
In addition, Zach also knew that things would not be that simple. He casually dismantled a toy and teased Adam, "Is Mrs. Quinn just here to see the baby?"
"No." Annabell took out a memo in a decent manner, "Mrs. Quinn asked me to tell you that Sheila, the Winged Man in the West District, is dead." Annabell was reading according to what she had recorded, "But When she and Mrs. Barton rushed to Sheila's place, Sheila's relics had been stolen by unknown people."
Annabel glanced at Zac's face and continued, "She said that Sheila's belongings had been cleaned very clean, including Sheila's career information. She guessed that someone wanted to replace Sheila's position in the West and intervene in the affairs of the West. She wanted to talk to you Let’s discuss countermeasures.”
Zach waved his hand expressionlessly, meaning to let Annabell continue to report other situations. Zach was too lazy to explain to Annabell the entrustment Sheila had given to Zuzu's office!
"Finally." Annabell closed the memo. "Your girlfriend Louise called and said that she was safe. She and Eli are now preparing for the blood exchange ceremony at the place provided by the Republican government." Annabell had a trace on her face. Smile, "She is hostile to me and doesn't want to talk to me anymore. She said she would contact you after success."
Zach glanced at Annabelle. The countess obviously deliberately said that Louise was hostile to her, with the obvious purpose of irritating Zach.
Zach would not give Annabell this kind of satisfaction. He looked away without any response and stopped talking to Annabell at all.
Annabell watched Zach tease Adam for a while, but finally got bored and left to work.
As soon as Annabell left, Zach got up and went to the office to contact Mrs. Quinn.
The call was made directly to Barton Manor. At this time, Mrs. Barton should be enjoying afternoon tea.
The phone was picked up, and after Zach called Grande, the voice on the other end of the receiver changed to Mrs. Barton.
"Are you looking for me, or are you looking for your daughter who now regards herself as my mother?" Directly and with irony, it is obviously mocking the ethical relationship of vampires: Mrs. Quinn is a descendant of Zach and the future president. The one who gave Mrs. Button eternal life.
"Mrs. Quinn." Zach, of course, responded with his usual title.
"Tsk." On the other side of the receiver was Mrs. Barton, complaining that Zach was not answering. Then the receiver was changed to Mrs. Quinn: "You finally came home. I should have waited half an hour longer."
"It doesn't matter." Before getting to the point, Zach had something curious to ask. The first one was: "How did you know about Mrs. Sheila's death?"
"Bishop's seductress, Riley." The answer was simple, "She felt it." It was also mixed with unexplained complaints, "It's some kind of strange inherited induction. The seductress can sense the race that gave birth to her. From Disappeared from this world.”
Zach raised his eyebrows. The amount of information in these words was quite large. Is Sheila the last existence of the winged race? Another race disappeared from this world. This also means that there are two races that have officially entered the stage of withdrawing from this world because they no longer have the existence of the matrilineal race, the Mei Yao and the Siren.
Mrs. Quinn obviously didn't feel the same way as Zach. She was complaining, "If you died, I wouldn't have any strange feelings. When Riley sensed Sheila's death, she looked very depressed. I'm over it." It’s my age to be depressed about something like this, you better not put me through this.”
Well, just think of this as a different kind of blessing from Mrs. Quinn. But the fact still needs to be stated, "You won't feel anything if I die. Vampires don't have this magical ability."
"very good."
The people on both sides of the receiver were quiet for a while, silently feeling that they were a race without magical abilities.
Zach's second question was an extension of the answer to the first: "Why are you with Riley?"
"You have to ask your Sabbat friend Nick Giovanni about this. He suddenly started wandering around the West End, which made everyone who knew his identity nervous. As Toledo's representative in the West End, of course, Mei Yao will come to me to inquire. Condition."
Also, Nick had been quiet in Grande for such a long time and suddenly ran to the West End, which would naturally attract attention. Zach might as well tell Mrs. Quinn now about the Sabbat's plan for Rimmer, and ask Mrs. Quinn to cooperate with Nick.
Get it done in one sentence: "Nick's target is Rimmer in the Smith family. You can help him if it's convenient. Specifically, Nick should take the initiative to contact everyone in the West End. Just be ready."
"Roger~" Mrs. Quinn's tone was very cheerful, probably because she was happy that the West End people had something interesting to do again.
The third question, "Why did you take Mrs. Barton to see Sheila?"
"Another old man we all know has died. I will not miss this opportunity to educate about death~" Mrs. Quinn seemed to be in a good mood. "The pride of a vampire is eternal life~ You taught me~ I naturally have no Keep it and teach it to the next person~"
Zach's mood also became cheerful, "Not bad~"
Now we can get to the point.
"About Sheila, don't worry, I'm watching the whole process." Zach wanted to explain the Zumen Firm, "Because Sheila entrusted the Zuzu Firm before she died..." No need to repeat it.
