When they got back to Grande, Alice was preparing lunch. It seemed that Repter's exam was indeed over, because Laura's voice came from the kitchen, talking miscellaneously about her high school life. Alice was busy with lunch, and only Matthew's voice occasionally responded. It sounded like, Laura still wrote that she had not sent out an invitation.
Zach had planned to tell the wolf cub that his Alpha was temporarily staying at Hayate's place. But thinking about the brain circuit of that girl Laura, God knows what kind of 'crime' will be placed on Zach! Zach thought for a while and decided to forget it.
I went up to the second floor and took off my tattered clothes and prepared to change. The first one to chase after him was actually Old Hank!
The strange old man blocked the door, blocking Louise who was obviously worried when she saw Zach coming in disheveled, and shouted loudly, "What on earth did you do at Hardy's house!! Aren't you afraid that he would call the police?! And where’s Benjamin?!”
Zach had no choice but to get dressed while explaining to Old Hank and to the worried Louise behind him, "There was a little accident and Benjamin lost control." Zach tried his best to use a relaxed tone, " We had a little fight, and then he, well, fell asleep." Zack curled his lips, "Then I sent him to Hayate."
Zach shook his head, "Hank, don't tell me Hardy really called the police."
"Of course not!" Old Hank yelled, "That old guy's house has more 'dirty' things than we do here! How could he be stupid enough to call the police!"
Zach tilted his head, "Well, that's a pity." Zach shrugged insincerely, "I hope he doesn't expect me to explain."
Old Hank snorted, "I just told him to shut up!" Old Hank stared at Zach, looked up and down for a while, and frowned, "How is Benjamin?"
"I don't know." Zach shook his head helplessly. He glanced at Old Hank, who had enough wrinkles to hide his expression easily, and smiled, "But don't worry, he is safe at Sibella's place." Zach raised his eyebrows, "And I hope they can figure out Benjamin. The reason for the sudden loss of control.”
Old Hank pursed his lips. After another moment of silence, he asked, "So, Woody, is there any progress?"
Zach pointed at the iron box he had brought back and said, "I hope those things can give us clues."
"Clues?" Old Hank became irritable again and yelled loudly, "You know a damn clue!"
What Old Hank means is—Vampire, you really think of yourself as a detective!
"You should go find your Wo. Wo..." Old Hank couldn't remember someone's name for a moment, "That guy without front teeth! Or those guys from Mary's Church!" Old Hank waved his hand, "You now I don’t even know if Woody is alive or dead, what a clue!”
Zach drooped his eyebrows, seeming a little aggrieved. Old Hank really had no confidence in himself at all!
But it's fair and practical, look at Bishop's Haley. The whole process was that Zach was informed to find someone. Zach was informed that the person was dead, and Zach did nothing. In the end, he defrauded a large amount of money with his own tongue, and it ended.
"Then I will find them." Zach still had some self-awareness and lowered his head helplessly, "I will also ask Nuo to help me, a real detective to help me. Are you satisfied with this?"
Old Hank gave Zack one last glare. He snorted and left.
Louise's worried eyes turned into a chuckle, she walked into the room, pulled the vampire's open shirt, and buttoned it for him. "Shocked?"
Zach looked at the woman in front of him, curled his mouth, held her shoulders, and moved little by little towards the bed, "Yes. I may need some comfort now..." There are really smooth transitions, please learn from it.
Louise raised her eyebrows and slapped Zach rudely, "Laura is here!"
"What does it matter?" Zach pulled away the hand that had moved to the collar and guided it in a certain direction, "They are in the kitchen and can't hear anything..."
Louise smiled and pushed Zach away, "No~" glanced at Zach, raised her eyebrows and exited the room, "I don't want to be your substitute for solving the 'exuberant energy' you prepared for Benjamin~"
Zach was stunned for a moment, uh, he was seen through. In vain, the blood of a half-grown boy was drawn, but the energetic vampire discovered that his opponent was asleep! Smart women are really scary! It came to mind so quickly!
Louise spread her hands and said, "Go and do other things early, or go and bask in the sun~" she turned around with a smile and disappeared.
This time he was really hit. Zach sighed, buttoned up silently, and looked at the iron box that was brought back, "Dylan." Zach called, thought for a moment, and called another name, "Danny."
Misty brilliance fragments assembled in the room, and two people appeared in front of Zach. Danny's mood seemed to have improved a bit. At least his body was clear enough, and the boundary with the outside world was clear. The scattered colored light was also restrained under his skin, and he showed his feet to the ground in a physical way.
Dylan is still like that, unable to grasp the distance between him and the material, and often has a small part of his cyan body stuck in the floor or furniture.
Zach opened the iron box, took out a pill, and handed it to Danny. He looked at Dylan and asked directly, "This is a popular drug in the middle of the country. Do you know where it is available in Barton?" Are you trading these things?”
Dylan floated close to the object in Danny's hand. Vague confusion first appeared on his green translucent face, and then as Zach expected, it turned into a cheerful and cheerful confirmation question, "This is something foreign. ?Someone is trading exotic goods in Barton?”
Zach shrugged, then looked at Danny with a more serious expression, "The name of this thing is 'Valmina'."
Fantasy Danny's eyebrows immediately frowned, and the colored light under his skin instantly appeared in a halo, spreading out from Fantasy's skin. Obviously he knew the name.
"Valmina?" It was Dylan who asked, "What does it mean? It doesn't look like the name of the Federation."
Zach shook his head, "No, it's not even the language of the Federation, it's a very ancient language." When vampires say ancient, you must believe it, "Legend has it that it is the first fantasy language that completely separates illusion and reality. Man, in the end, became an illusory life that did not need to rely on the existence of the real world, and became the first dream demon."
"It's just a stupid legend!" Danny spoke, glanced at Zach, as if correcting his knowledge of the undead, and corrected him seriously, "The alien race of souls, after breaking away from the identity of the earthbinder, became another person. When it is a kind of life, it has been fixed, and there is no possibility of changing into other races."
Zach looked at Danny's expression, and something flashed in his eyes, "I said it was just a legend." Zach pursed his lips and became serious, "This 'Varmina' made Benjamin lose control. There is no human Drugs can affect Alpha. Benjamin is still asleep under the influence of drugs. I don’t know why. I need help.”
Danny frowned and thought for a moment, "How can I help?"
Zach's voice was a little gloomy, "Benjamin suddenly attacked me. He ignored my call and attacked directly with his Alpha skin. Even when we first met, he didn't attack. I want to know why."
Danny looked at the pills in his hand, "Do you think it has anything to do with the name?"
Zach nodded, isn’t such a product just hallucinogenic to people? The vampire idea makes sense.
Zach looked at Dylan again, "I want to know who in Barton might be selling these things." (..)
