The Record Of Barton’s Fantastical Events

Chapter 33: the way

Views:

Mr. Quinn's funeral was conducted quietly, with quiet speeches and farewells. There were no passionate speeches or the singing that many people like to invite. Perhaps this is also related to the fact that most of the people who come to the funeral are people who have entered another world with half a foot. We all know that when people get old to a certain extent and realize that glitz is just a superficial appearance, they will prefer silence.

At this time, Zach naturally hid in the church where the farewell ceremony was held, because reporters who could not enter the cemetery and the church crowded into the Grand House. If they wanted to report on the Grand Funeral Home, which fortunately held Mr. Quinn's funeral, and took the photos, Zach didn't know that after they went back to develop them, they found out that they would not be able to retain the owner of the Grand Home. Will the figure go crazy

The farewell ceremony ended and most people gradually dispersed. Burial, the other step in a funeral, is a more personal ceremony. Those who are not the closest friends of the Quinn family are not eligible to participate. The elderly people who had been sitting for several hours also had space to move their hands and feet.

Zach and Benjamin stood in front of the main entrance of the church, occasionally bowing, saluting the departing guests, and then handing over their business cards. This was important. Although Mrs. Quinn promised to help promote the Grand House and also booked the Quinn family's funeral, the two of them were idle now. It was better to have a business card to make them look familiar in front of these future guests.

"This is a very good ceremony." An old lady approached the two people with support. "It is solemn and clean. I like the layout of the church, especially the statue of the Son in the middle, which makes people feel awe."

Zach shifted his gaze, looked at the old lady, and bowed slightly: "Mrs. Quinn specifically requested that it be a traditional ceremony, so the complicated decorations were removed. If Madam is interested in the church, you can contact the priest Let’s talk.”

The strange lady waved her hand and the person supporting her stepped away. Zach and Benjamin didn't know what was going on, but they immediately stepped forward and helped the old lady. The old lady nodded with satisfaction, raised her finger, and gestured to walk along the porch to one side.

"I don't care about the church at all, and I don't want to listen to the priest's sermon." After walking away from the crowd, the old lady's tone immediately changed, "What I will do is donate some money to let them replace those cold and hard chairs. ! If I sit on one again, I think my butt will get stuck on it!"

The two people supporting her raised their eyebrows. They had no idea where the old lady suddenly came and where this conversation with them was going to go.

"The only thing I care about is you two!" The old lady raised her withered and wrinkled hands and waved to the elderly people in front of her.

Zach frowned, he already realized something was wrong. He looked towards where the old lady was waving, and Mrs. Quinn was among them. He glanced at Zach meaningfully, and then his eyes drifted to Bochi who was walking to the car.

"Excuse me, ma'am?"

"Is this important?" The old lady moved very slowly. At this rate, it would still take some time to reach Mrs. Quinn.

It really doesn't matter, at least now the old lady has no intention of leaving the funeral, which means that she belongs to the area that is qualified to participate in the burial ceremony and is a close friend of the Quinns. Mrs. Quinn's friends are all people at the end of the pyramid, and Zach already has a rough guess in his mind.

These old people who voluntarily withdraw from the era do not want to know, and Zach no longer asks more questions about his identity, "Why does Madam care about us?"

"It depends on what happens to Pochi." The old lady chuckled a few times, "You are smart guys. I trust Quinn's vision, but I trust what I see more. So, I'm looking forward to it."

Zach and Benjamin looked at each other and seemed to have thought of something. Without further ado, they honestly helped Madam into Quinn's circle.

When the two left, Mrs. Quinn said lightly: "The Great Dane you sent us eats a lot."

"One week, if Mrs. Quinn feels tired of it, you can send it back." Zach leaned forward and replied.

"Yes." Mrs. Quinn nodded, and strangely the other old people followed suit, looking at the two of them with a half-smile, "The burial ceremony can begin."

"Yes, ma'am."

Mr. Quinn's coffin was carried into the hearse and headed to the cemetery. In the past few days, Zach hired nearby farmers to clean the tomb circle selected by Mrs. Quinn. Now, there are still some farmers waiting in the tomb area, and they have to act as coolies during the burial ceremony.

When the ceremony began, Zach and Benjamin had retreated into the distance, watching a group of men and women dressed in black surrounding the cemetery, silently lowering their heads and praying along with the priest's prayers.

"What happened just now, I have a bad feeling." Benjamin frowned at Zach.

Zach smiled bitterly: "I think Mrs. Quinn did not help us promote the funeral industry of Grand Home, but promoted 'us'."

Benjamin sighed softly: "I thought about it too. I don't think this is a good thing. It will lead us to a path we have never thought of."

Zach lowered the brim of his hat that blocked the sun, looked at his friend, and asked seriously: "Do you think I was wrong? I reached an agreement with Mrs. Quinn rashly."

"No." Benjamin shook his head: "You just did what you should do. In order for 'Grand House' to exist, we need customers like Mrs. Quinn. You took a risk, we just don't know it yet." , it’s just whether it’s worth it.”

As I said before, the conversation between the vampire and Mrs. Queen in the church changed the life trajectory of all 'people'. This road is still in the fog and cannot be seen clearly, because Poch, who is hated by everyone, is still breathing the fresh air of the outside world and has not yet entered the lunatic asylum 'of his own volition'. In Quinn's property will, the provision that 'when the heir is unable to run the Quinn Group due to physical or mental reasons will lose the right to inherit' has not yet taken effect, Mrs. Quinn and her friends are still waiting for the outcome of the matter.

When it was all said and done, Mrs. Quinn didn't cross the line she didn't want to cross, keeping her hands clean while getting the results she wanted. And her friends will completely trust Quinn's vision.

Zack, Mrs. Quinn did help them publicize it, but the subject of the publicity was not the funeral home, but 'them'. In this world, there are many things that don’t want to know the why or the process, but just want it to come true, like a miracle.

And 'they', like the apparition of the Son, fulfilled this need.
