In Grande's office, Zach was sitting comfortably behind his desk with his legs crossed, holding "Urban Legends - Barton's Weekly" with a smile on his lips, and gently turned the page.
I don't know if he saw something funny, but the vampire raised his eyebrows with an expression on his face that said, 'So that's it.'
The girl walked directly through the coffin exhibition hall and the reception room, and continued moving forward without looking away in Louise's somewhat surprised eyes.
Zach raised his eyes from the magazine and glanced at Saint Sissi who sat down opposite and put the clothes and shoes in her hands on the table.
"Good morning." Zach said hello politely while maintaining a good mood for reading the story. He glanced at the folded clothes. It seemed that the rips had been repaired and cleaned by the saint.
Sissi didn't respond and looked at the magazine in Zach's hand, "Everyone else is working hard and fighting for their position in Barton, but you are here reading the magazine. Zach, you are weird."
Zach raised his eyebrows, Sissi used a very strange beginning, Barton's status
Zach put down the magazine and stuffed it into a pile of work reports sent by Madison. This was the only place Benjamin would never look for. Before he finished reading it, Zach was not going to share this book with anyone else. Joke Book'.
"What do you want to say? Just say it, Sissy." Zach straightened his appearance. The other party was a guest after all. In contrast, Zach is the master.
Sissi turned her head and glanced at Thomas Gangello, who had a wolf head emerging from the side door. With a slight signal, Thomas turned and disappeared. Sissi continued to look at Zach and pointed to the folded clothes in front of her, "Thank you Alice for the clothes."
"She's upstairs." Zach said with a smile, "You should thank her in person." Looking into the other person's eyes. "This is more sincere."
Sissi actually ignored the directness of Zach's words and nodded, "I'll go in a moment. Now, I want to sit here for a while."
Zach pursed his lips and waved, "It's up to you." He took the wine bottle and glass. Pour leisurely.
Of course, Sissi wouldn't come for no reason. Zach's guess was that she came to pick up Gangro. Because after Thomas brought his family to Grande, he didn't say what he was going to do, and he always occupied Zach's basement. A part of Zach wished they could stay here, and a part wished they would never show up in front of him. Quite contradictory.
"I did what you asked." Sissi's fingers were fumbling with the corners of the clothes on the table. Not knowing what she was doing, she suddenly spoke again, "I visited the five-yuan clothing store on Ogier Street. ." She glanced at her clothes and continued. "Tell the tailor Morelin that Eli is here."
Zach tilted his head slightly and curled the corners of his mouth. He already knew it from the hole-filled fabric he received.
"He." Sissi looked at Zach with a strange look in her eyes, obviously talking about Morelin, "He is very powerful."
"I warned you." Zach placed his lips against the wine glass.
Remember how Zach used Eli's mind reading to find his preferred choice among conflicting decisions? kindness. This is just a not very powerful mind reader named Ali, who can read the conscious thoughts of people. judgment made. It is considered a daily application.
Think deeper, what if you were a mind reader who could read your subconscious? What if he doesn't use what he reads to help people make daily judgments, but instead manipulates people's minds to bring things into order
Morelin can sneak into the deepest part of the human heart, dig out your deepest buried and fleeting thoughts, and then forcefully drag them to the surface of your thinking! Quite literally, if Morelin is willing. He can turn a saint into a devil!
Don't ask me why I'm so sure. You don't want to know.
Sissi shook her head inexplicably, as if she wanted to get rid of some unpleasant memories. After sorting out her emotions a little, she continued, "I visited Mayor Barton. Mr. Anthony."
"Well, I didn't lie to you." Zach smiled.
"He is very good." Sissi glanced at Zach and nodded, "As you said, he agreed with the agreement you gave me and made supplements."
"Supplementary?" Zach was a little surprised. He thought he was comprehensive enough. Although Sissi is just a girl with a human appearance and the title of 'saint' that is easy to make people imagine, she is essentially the third type of alien.
The Grand Accord has restricted everything that this special alien race can do to adversely affect the Barton people, so what else can be added.
"It's very simple." Sissi's eyes twitched inexplicably, "Before Crowley and I complete the coexistence agreement, he reserves the right to accept me to live in Barton."
It's quite ridiculous that the right of a foreign race to live in a certain place requires the consent of a human mayor!
However, Sissi had to obey. A chaotic fight broke out, and she faced all the Barton aliens who had been tied up by various agreements. She had no chance of winning, unless she continued to hide in the wilderness with Gangro and fight guerrillas like before!
Zach raised his eyebrows, thought for a while, and finally nodded and smiled, "The mayor is right, I ignored it." He looked into Sissi's eyes with a smile, "If you and Crowley are here We will be very distressed if we fight each other secretly."
Sissi looked at Zach expressionlessly, "Then, yesterday, I observed the Fallen Angel's service, visited her by the way, and completed the agreement."
It was said quite casually, but I don't know what the actual 'conversation' between these two guys who are on opposite sides of the same belief system was like. However, we know the other side of the matter, which is that it completely delayed Crowley from saving Georgina!
Crowley just went to Georgina's place to scout today, didn't she
Sissi seemed to have finished speaking and fell silent, continuing to pinch and knead the corner of the clothes on the table.
Zach swung his glass, waited for a while, and raised his voice with a cheerful expression, "It sounds like you have been very busy these days since you left last time." The vampire waved his hand, "If you are willing, you are very welcome. Take a break at the Grande, and if you’re polite enough, we might invite you to lunch.”
Sissi actually nodded.
Zach's brows immediately widened after frowning. What's going on with this saint? Is he here just to explain his itinerary and then have lunch? ! If he were more malicious, he wouldn't be like Gangluo. Just stay here and never leave!
I really didn't know what the girl was thinking about. Zach waited for a while, didn't want to think about it anymore, took out "Urban Legend" from Madison's work report, flipped it to the position where he just put it down, and continued reading.
"You know that."
Zach's eyes had just moved past two lines of text, and he had not read a complete paragraph. Sissi on the other side spoke again, with another inexplicable beginning.
Zach pursed his lips and did not put the magazine back. He looked up at the saint who was looking at him seriously, "You know what."
"Barton." Sissi paused in the abusive words, "this city." Each phrase left a gap for Zach, "The ideal city in your mouth."
In the end, I just stopped talking.
Zach frowned and simply looked at the other party with the same serious eyes. Playing a staring game with a vampire? hehe.
Sissi looked at it for a while. Looking sideways, "This city is completely opposite to what you said."
The other party admitted defeat. Zach didn't care what the other party said. He smiled with satisfaction and returned his eyes to the magazine.
Sissi stopped playing the ridiculous pause game, stopped fumbling with her clothes, and sat down properly. "In the past few days, everyone I visited has felt uneasy."
"Ordinary aliens living secretly in Barton, even the powerful mind reader Mo Ruilin." There was a fleeting discomfort on Sissi's face again, "He has no awareness that the city he lives in Changes are happening…”
A smile appeared on Zach's face while looking at the magazine. He didn't know if he saw something funny again or because he was reacting to Sissy's words.
"They are unprepared. Today, a saint will walk into his shop, and tomorrow, no one knows what other things will walk into." Zach's smile seemed to make Sissy feel a little uncomfortable, and she frowned and stared at Zach turned the page. He emphasized his tone, "They are wondering whether their position in Barton has been forgotten by others!"
Zach didn't react much and kept smiling, as if the story in the magazine had reached its climax.
"Mayor, Anthony." Sissi no longer cares whether Zach is continuing to listen, "It seems that he controls everything in this city, human or alien. But when I was face to face with him in the mayor's office, I can feel that everyone in this building, which is dubbed the mayor's office, is uneasy."
Sissi paused for a moment, "There is no need to deliberately eavesdrop on the conversations of unsuspecting people. I already know that the mayor you praise so much, Mr. Anthony, is in trouble himself. Next year, maybe sooner, he He might have lost everything he had in his current position."
At the end, "Fallen Angel." Sissi shook her head, "I can hardly tell whether I feel sympathy for her or the same contempt as before."
Sissi adjusted her sitting posture and faced Zach's raised voice, "In this city, everyone is doing their best to hold on to their current position. This kind of uneasiness is like the turbulence under the calm water. Your so-called ideal is just It's just a false mask." She frowned at the corner of Zach's curved mouth, "You are in the center of this turmoil, but you are here reading a magazine..."
Zach moved, he lifted the cover, smiled and introduced to the saint, "This is a very good magazine, don't look at its name, I call it 'Barton's Delusion Story'."
Sissy shook her head, she couldn't keep up with the vampire's current ease.
Zach saw that Sissi was not interested in the magazine, so he took it back without hesitation, "What you should understand is that you are only here for a few days, and you don't need a newcomer to remind you about the things in Barton." Zach's eyes continued to return to the 'Delusion Story', "But I still want to thank you. If you had told me this a day earlier, I would have had a lot of doubts. Now, thanks to a friend's answer, I have no need."
"friend?"
"Oh." Zach's hand holding the page pointed to the west, "Constantine, you should go see him, he is in the Church of the Holy Child to the west." (...)
