Walking out of the bar, Zach patted Seth. The vampire knew that Seth was dissatisfied with his actions, but Zach didn't care what little ideas Seth had in mind. At least in the eyes of vampires, it is inevitable that Crowley will integrate the southeast, and because the 'General' is in a special professional circle, if he is a qualified businessman, he will maintain his independence and not be affected by other gangs. assimilation.
You must know that once those small gangs are integrated into a big gang and their interests are involved, the so-called 'professional scapegoat' business will no longer be able to operate.
"Wait here." Zach confessed, raised his arms to block the increasingly strong sunlight, and trotted towards the west. After entering the street, the vampire's figure quickly disappeared. After a while, it appeared on the roof, and then began to leap over various obstacles without any scruples before disappearing.
Anthony's home is north of Port Massa and northeast of Bechi. It is the upper right corner of Barton's map. There is no official district name here, but people are used to calling it 'Shangbei District', which means the area where the upper class people live in the Upper North District.
Unlike the Nuoertan villa area where Nuo is located, the upper class does not refer to the upper class of economic ability, but the upper class of political status.
The founders of Barton City set the double standard of wealth and power in the West End. However, as the times changed, the founders of the West End gradually faded out of the circle of power, leaving all the glory to the North End. The West End began to become a symbol of wealth and influence. There will be people who settle in the West District in order to improve their own situation. The West District is relatively open.
But Beishang District is completely different. You can't come here just by having money. You must have rights, and rights are ongoing.
That is, if Anthony is no longer mayor. Having completely withdrawn from Patton's political circle, he needs to be more conscious and quietly find a remote place to retire, and not let his decadent 'smell' affect the new generation of people in power. Although it's a bit exaggerated, that's pretty much the atmosphere here.
Zach never liked it here, not because of the cruel atmosphere. It's because the change of power has always been very rapid. Vampires who have lived for too long really don't have the energy to write down the names of a new group of neighbors every few years.
As soon as he entered the border of the Upper North District, Zach disappeared into the green belt. His body moved quickly among the shadows of the lush trees. When he reappeared, he was already in the backyard of Anthony's villa.
Zach curled his lips, the sunlight and the continuous rapid movement made his mind dizzy. The vampire took off the broad leaf stuck between his collar and straightened his clothes. His hand had already reached into his pocket and took out the wine bottle. He needs replenishment.
Zach raised his head, and before he could take a sip, his body froze.
On the third floor, a head stuck out of the window, staring straight at Zach.
Zach swallowed the blood that had been poured into his mouth, and reluctantly raised his hand to the seventeen-year-old boy who was looking at him, "Caesar."
Have you ever had any doubts? How did Anthony go from a veteran who just arrived in Barton to the mayor in such a short period of time. Even with a heroic halo. But the political circle will not care about this. At most, it will provide a little help for Anthony's career.
And we know that one important thing that Zach appreciates about Anthony is that Anthony will not take the shortcut of a foreign race. In other words, Zach and Benjamin really didn't do anything to help Anthony, at most they listened to Anthony's complaints. Zach was just secretly trying to teach someone who bullied his friend a lesson.
So why is Anthony
Well, the answer is right in front of you, at least half of it. Zach was watching this 'half-answer' quickly climb out of the window, then step on the window sill and cover, and just like that, Caesar jumped from the third floor.
"Is that human blood?" Caesar raised his eyes. He raised his chin at Zach like a little gangster.
"No, it's a sheep," Zach replied.
"Boring." Caesar twitched his lips and showed a look of disgust, "Why don't you call me a vampire? It's a waste."
Zach raised his eyebrows, not ready to answer, "Does your mother know you are here?"
"Are you going to complain?" Caesar stared into the vampire's eyes.
"Does Anthony know you're here?" Zach continued.
"Are you going to file a complaint?" Caesar responded with the same answer.
Zach shook his head helplessly and spread his hands, "I haven't seen you." Zach had nothing to do with this guy. After all, he was just a friend of the other's mother's ex-husband. Don't be misled by the word ex-husband, even when Caesar was Antony's legal son, Caesar's mother had an ex-husband.
The reason why the term former stepfather is not used is that Caesar’s mother is the other half of the answer and needs special mention.
Zach began to miss the innocent little boy he once was. Now, the guy in front of me is completely a rebellious teenager.
"What are you doing here?" Caesar seemed not to let Zach go, and followed the vampire and asked, "Does Anthony know you are coming?"
Yes, this guy will call Anthony by name. He used to call Ann (Anthony's name) uncle, and then when he was about to become dad, Anthony's short-lived marriage became a thing of the past. So the boy who had just entered puberty didn't know what kind of psychology was activated, and his title dropped two levels and became Anthony.
Zach walked directly to the garage in a familiar manner, and he was not going to pay attention.
"Vampire!" Caesar seemed dissatisfied with Zach's ignorance of him, "I'm talking to you!"
Zach continued to ignore it, opened the garage, and walked directly to the darkest corner. The dark green oilcloth was covered with dust, and the four corners could clearly tell that it was an old-fashioned car. Perhaps due to technical limitations in the past, the body was made heavy and thick. Now it looks more like a large iron brick, without any aesthetic appeal.
Zach directly pulled away the oilcloth covering it, and the dust stirred up made Caesar wrinkle his nose and step aside.
"What do you want to do?" Caesar covered his mouth and shook his hand in front of his face, "Are you here to steal the car?"
Zach twitched his lips and glanced at Caesar, "Unlike you, I have informed Anthony."
"Tsk." Caesar tutted, "I have the key. This is still my home. I can come whenever I want."
Zach raised his eyebrows, the other person was right and he couldn't refute it.
The car hood was folded up in the back seat. Zach leaned sideways on the driver's seat, took out the key, inserted it, and started the ignition.
A dry, dense thud emerged, echoing back and forth in the garage. Caesar stepped back a few steps because he could already see the dust coming out of the exhaust pipe under the butt of the car.
The roar that had lasted for a while began to calm down. Zach looked at the stabilizing pointer on the instrument panel and smiled with satisfaction. He rolled over and jumped directly into the driver's seat, turned around, and began to pull the roof of the car that was stowed in the back seat.
Old-fashioned cars are like this. The roof is actually a retractable cloth shed. Its practicality is almost negligible. It cannot block the rain and cannot save lives. But for vampires, as long as it can be covered up, it is a very useful thing.
Zack's shed was only halfway up before it stopped as Caesar jumped up as well, looking at the vampire.
"You." Zach and the boy looked at each other, "get out of the car."
"No."
Redness began to spread in his eyes, "Do you want me to repeat it again, little one?"
"What are you going to do?" Caesar looked directly into Zack's red eyes without fear, "Are you going to use the Charming Eyes on me?"
Zach raised his eyebrows. The other person was so self-aware that he was embarrassed to do so. How can I put it, this guy is also Anthony's ex-stepson... Chihong disappeared, Zach tilted his head and said, "I can throw you out. ." The vampire wagged his fingers in front of the other party.
Caesar curled his lips, opened the door and got out of the car.
Zach smiled with satisfaction. Although he is a teenager, he has a good self-awareness...
Then Zach's smile disappeared. Caesar got directly into another car, started it skillfully, then tilted his head and looked at Zach.
"Are you testing my patience? Caesar." Zach said to the boy looking at him from a distance.
"What." Caesar twitched his lips, "This is my car. Have you forgotten? Anthony gave it to me as a seventeenth-year-old gift. I can drive it wherever I want."
Zach sighed, "Caesar, you know it's close to the full moon. You know, we will all be very irritable at this time." Zach was sincerely reasoning, "So you'd better be more conscious and don't Looking for trouble at this time.”
"Why." Caesar still looked indifferent, "Shouldn't you just stay in Grande at this time? You can sneak out and wander around, but I can't just drive around in my car."
The focus of Zach's attention was inexplicably shifted, "Who said I ran out secretly..." Zach twitched the corner of his mouth and changed his focus, "I told Anthony to go."
"Snitch." Caesar frowned, rolled his eyes, and clicked his tongue, "Are all vampires as despicable as you? I really hope a few hunters will come and kill you."
Zach raised an eyebrow and tapped his fingers on the steering wheel. The two stared at each other for a while. Zach snorted, shook his head, waved to Caesar, turned over and jumped into the back seat, "Come on, you drive."
Caesar was stunned for a moment. He seemed not to have expected Zach's sudden change, but he still ran over quickly, with a hint of excitement on his face. But it was obvious that he was deliberately suppressing his excitement so that Zach wouldn't notice.
Caesar sat in the driver's seat, simulated the operation of an old car a little, and turned his head, "Where are we going?"
"How many times have I told you, seat belt." Zach stood up helplessly and fastened the seat belt for this guy like an elder, "Southeast."
Of course Zach wouldn't care about this guy's typical teenage curse, but there are indeed other vampires and hunters in Barton City now. It doesn't seem very wise to leave such a guy who knows a little bit about everything and is impulsive. .
Just think of it as being a babysitter for Anthony again. Anyway, I have done this job often before. (..)
