On the second floor of Benjamin's warehouse, Alpha's bed is occupied by a vampire. Zach lay flat on his back in a regular manner, with his hands folded on his chest, staring at the ceiling, as if he was about to be buried in a coffin.
Benjamin, who was sitting at the table, glanced sideways at Zach, "You know, you are a hard guy to please."
Zach's eyes were staring at the ceiling, and he didn't know what he was thinking. He said faintly, "It's just a family member."
Benjamin shook his head and pulled Zach's arm, "This is my bedroom, go back to your basement."
Zach's upper body had been roughly pulled up by Alpha, and he looked at Alpha who looked impatient, "I don't want to go back, Gangro is there."
Benjamin frowned, left Zach and walked away. Alpha also has a hammock in the sun.
Zach continued to lie on the bed, straightened out his torn clothes, got into position, and continued to stare at the ceiling.
I have used various methods to try to find out Toledo's history in the Secret Alliance. For the last time, I turned a corner and asked this question, "Zach, do you remember your father? I mean the vampire father, the father who gave you the name Toledo, the ancestor of Toledo. He is what kind of person?"
That time, Zach glanced at me and said, "Is your next question going to be, how did he lead Toledo to destruction?"
I turned around and walked away consciously, I had been exposed, and it looked like Zach wouldn't answer. But, I was surprised.
"When vampires pass on their bloodline to humans, the top priority is always eternal life." Zach entered the self-talk mode and had already escaped from my question, but I seized the opportunity and quickly returned to the vampire. Listen carefully to what he has to say, "The only difference between different clans is how they use this eternal life."
I cleverly pushed Zach's inexplicably candid soliloquy towards the part I was curious about. "For example, people who are oppressed by rules, laws, intricate interpersonal relationships, ever-changing things... who want to be completely free go to the wild and end up becoming gangeros. I know this, but what about Toledo? ?”
Zach glanced at me and smiled. "You gave a good example, turning Gangro around, and Toledo loves being a part of it all."
What's the meaning? Toledo likes human beings, they are happy to participate in the process of civilization, they like to be among people, and with the development of the times, well, progress.
"Madison, you've been bugging me with this problem for a long time." Zach waved at me. "Let me put it this way, when the Federation amended the constitution and abolished slavery, Toledo, who lived among the people, also liberated his family members."
Seeing that Zach seemed to have finished speaking, I shook my head, "It's not over yet? What next?"
"Then?" Zach narrowed his eyes, "Toridors, we foolishly thought that our brothers with different surnames (other clans in the Secret Alliance) were like us. They were willing to accept the progress of civilization."
This is a sad story.
But I also know some information about Toledo’s past, and the family is just an introduction. What really makes Toledo betray is that Zach has already said - the progress of civilization. Toledo moved forward, but the Secret Alliance remained in place.
So at this time, Zach remembered the war he had with his brothers of a different surname in the Secret Alliance. They said to Toledo, "They are just dependents. Toledo. Are you going to betray the alliance for these low-level slaves?"
At this time, Zach had the same troubles, and Gangaro was no different from the secret alliance before. 12 is very important, because he is a dependent of the vampire, and he serves his master loyally. This gives his immortality a sense of existence that people care about. When separated from the status of a dependent, such as death, he is not important at all.
If something like this had happened more than a century ago, Toledo would still exist in the Secret Alliance, and human civilization would still be arguing about slavery. Zak would not hesitate to point a white-gloved finger at Gangelo's nose and use the dialectical skills of a gentleman to accuse Gangelo of his disregard for human rights.
A few years later, Zach will directly lead his descendants to launch an assassination.
Of course, the above scenario is impossible to happen. First, Gangaro rarely appears in front of Toledo. Second, it is now more than a century later.
So Zack could only do nothing except suffer from the memories for a while.
"Zach is up there." Benjamin's voice came from outside the warehouse.
Zach adjusted his mood, sat up on the bed, and heard steady footsteps going up the stairs of the warehouse. After a while, Constantine and Mike's faces appeared on the second floor.
It was rare to meet guests at Benjamin's place. Zach had already seen the doubts on the two people's faces. Zach smiled and explained, "Gangero is in the basement, I am avoiding it."
Constantine nodded, asked no more questions, and motioned to Mike, who was carrying an iron box.
Mike seemed a little nervous, glanced at Zach, and put down the things behind him.
Zach obviously misinterpreted Mike's nervousness, and smiled to comfort this very interesting devil, "Don't be nervous, Saint Sissy is not here, only Gangluo."
Mike pursed his lips and stopped talking. But in his heart, he was trying his best to slander Crowley for throwing the problem at him.
"Louise is still chatting with the nuns in the church." Constantine started, and the priest calmly started with other topics. "Mason is also very adaptable to the life of the church."
Zach nodded, looked at the iron box placed in front of him, which was tightly sealed, and asked, "What is this?"
Constantine's tone was calm and he did not answer directly, "In the morning, I went to the prison as usual, but the media and the police failed to let me in, so when I came back, I went directly to the cemetery." There was a trace of self-mockery on his face, " I’m used to it, and if I don’t say anything on Sundays, I always feel like something is missing.”
Zach smiled, unable to stop the prisoners in the prison, so he went to preach to the undead and earthbound spirits in the cemetery. The priest is such a down-to-earth guy! Zach looked at the iron box, saw the lock, pulled it, looked up, and saw Constantine handing over the key.
"Then I saw this." Constantine stopped laughing at himself and watched Zach open the iron box.
After taking a look, Zach closed the iron box and locked it. The expression on his face disappeared and he asked tonelessly, "What happened."
"Dig the grave." Constantine said calmly, "I found that the cemetery in the North Park has signs of being dug up." Constantine shook his head expressionlessly, crossed himself on his chest, "Along the I searched for traces and finally found him half-hidden in the soil."
Zach's face was not good. There was a rotting corpse in the box, but the grayish white with slightly transparent bones showed that this was not just a corpse, but a dead ghoul.
As if to add to the tragedy of this ghoul, Constantine continued to say plainly, "I checked, and there are still only completely decomposed bones in his half-covered graveyard."
Zach placed his fingers on the iron box and moved gently, "Beiyuan?"
"Yes." Constantine nodded, "If he had gone to the West Garden, he might still be alive now."
Most of Quinn's tombs and those from the West End who were moved tombs are in the West Garden. The ghoul, now resting in an iron box, had chosen the wrong place to feed.
Constantine looked at Zach who stopped talking, "I checked him without permission." Constantine stood on the second floor of the warehouse and looked to the northeast, which is the direction of the Grand House, in the basement. According to Zach, there is Gangaro.
Seeing that Zach had no intention of stopping him, Constantine continued, "I found several fractures on his spine and bones at the joints. The cut surfaces were smooth and clean, and it looked like they were made of..."
"It was caused by vampires." Zach looked at Constantine, accepted his words, and reluctantly curled his lips.
"The first thing I thought of was you." Constantine nodded, "But I think if you were the one, the wound would have been a sharper blow, and he wouldn't be able to linger in the cemetery to look for supplies."
Zack, who should have nodded at this time to express his acceptance of this special kind of praise, made no move now. His eyes returned to the blue-gray iron box, and he didn't know what he was thinking, "It's a dependent of Gangro." It seemed that he was Explaining to Constantine, "We just gave up on searching for the missing family members."
Constantine frowned, but immediately regained his composure. After crossing his hand on his chest, he nodded slightly, "I thought it should be delivered to you, and now it's delivered." He showed a smile, "Me too. gone back."
"Father, wait a moment." Looking at Constantine's back as he turned to leave, Zach suddenly called out to save the priest. Unfortunately, Zach was temporarily occupied with other things and did not notice the inexplicably nervous Mike.
Constantine turned his head and looked at the vampire who looked like "Father, I need guidance" with some confusion.
Zach smiled unnaturally, walked towards Constantine, and guided the way, "Father, how about we go out for a walk?"
Constantine searched for the expression on Zach's face and nodded. Now it's time to avoid foreign ears and have conversations that require private space.
Zach glanced at Mike, who was not sure whether to follow him or not, and shook his head, "Mike, I'm not targeting you, but you are a very bad driver." Then he looked at Constantine, "Father?"
Constantine looked at Mike, who looked unnatural, and said, "I'm driving."
There was a hint of expectation in Mike's eyes.
It was Constantine who told Mike about Robert the hunter's obsession with becoming a demon, and Mike then conveyed it to Crowley. It is still a matter of hunter Robert, and an innocent Georgina is also involved. The order of information flow was reversed, Crowley informed Mike, and Mike immediately informed Constantine without hesitation.
At this time, is Constantine going to help Mike decide whether to tell Grande
But Mike was immediately disappointed. Constantine followed Zach, still looking at Mike, "Go back to the church first, or stay here, it's up to you to decide." (..)
