Director Perls looked at Zach in confirmation, and then looked at Zach's outstretched hand. His eyelids gradually widened with an incredible expression, "Are you kidding me?"
Zach raised his eyebrows, "No." He still stretched out his hand in front of him, "Even if the mayor and I were friends, he would not accept Grande's help. I know, Aisela knows, we are not against each other. But if you still hold on to your stereotypes about Grande, then I will have to fight you."
Zach turned his head and looked at the building behind him. On the other side of the wall, the police officers were collecting evidence and investigating. What Zach meant was that in a situation like today, continuous calls to the police were treated as a joke, and a bad crime was delayed for one night only because of the chief's prejudice!
"For the benefit of Grande, as the master, I must be your enemy." Zach looked at the other party.
"At that time, it has nothing to do with whether the mayor accepts my help or not." Zach's hand moved forward again, approaching Pers, "My hostility towards you can be easily transferred to Aisela, who you serve. ." Zach narrowed his eyes, "You know very well that Grande is 'dangerous'."
"I'm warning you!" Perls's eyes flashed along with Zach's words. He obviously understood what Zach meant, but Zach said it easily. Malice and prejudice, these things, can you just throw them away? "This is the second time you've threatened me today!"
"I can also make a third threat." Zach curled his lips, "I can easily tell anyone who cares about Grande's movements what you delayed for an entire night..."
Someone in a police uniform pushed open Grande's back door, rushed in front of Perls, and glanced nervously at the two people.
"Speak!" Pers looked at Zach, who was still standing there with his hands stretched out, and yelled at the police officer irritably, "Just say it!"
"Stolen items..." The police officer looked at Zach, who was still smiling, and no longer hesitated. "That Benjamin said that among the things stolen, there were, uh, certain things carried out by Grande, Quinn, Patton, Stone, Smith in the West End..."
The police officer handed over what looked like a document sealed in an evidence bag. Pers took a look, and his face turned completely gloomy!
This is the commission memorandum sheet that Zach specially prepared last night to give Skull and the others a commission! It was specially left for the police to see! In the gray professional circle, Skoll "leaked" the information about Herman against Grande. Button is on the bright side, and the only way to rely on it is the police!
Grande's reputation in the North and West Sides has been fully developed, but in the South Side, he is still unknown. Pers said before that he had heard some rumors. Grande is back to his old business, and the thing in front of him is the proof! It's just those last names... Grande is more dangerous than Pels expected!
"Seal it up! Find someone with a strict mouth to watch it!" Pers gave the order fiercely, and then glared at Zach again. This was Zach's third threat!
"Wes." Zach suddenly spoke with a smile, his hand still stretched out in front of him, "I can only trust this young man now."
Pers's cheeks trembled slightly, his eyes locked on Zach. In the end, he could only nod, "Wes." He finally extended his right hand. He shook Zach's hand and immediately separated it.
The police officer received the order and left quickly. Grande's back porch fell silent for a moment.
Zach sat back on the bench, looking around casually at Grand's backyard scenery that had not changed all year round with a normal expression.
"Don't worry, since we have put aside our prejudices and no longer treat each other ill. You can organize your words well." Zach shrugged easily, "What delayed you all night before coming to Grande. I can only guess by myself. , something more important than Grande’s call to the police must be very serious.”
The disgust in Perls's eyes didn't seem to be easy to get rid of, and he tried several times. He couldn't let himself act like he didn't care about Zach's deliberate teasing. Giving up, "It's not something a guy like you who hangs out with those 'big guys' would care about!"
Pers realized that saying this would not help him at all! After all, Zach's initial request was the reason why Grande's call to the police was ignored all night. If the explanation did not satisfy Zach, he would be the unlucky one!
Zach didn't care about the irony. To put it more maliciously, Zach, a vampire, had contact with certain high-status people just for the money in the hands of those who were halfway in the coffin. It is still very selfless for the purpose of maintaining Grande. We all know that as a vampire, if he is selfish, as long as there is 'food' everywhere, he doesn't need to worry about anything else.
"A little boy is missing." Pels gave up thinking. The fact was destined that this explanation would not satisfy Grande. "Everyone was mobilized and there was no time to deal with a 'prank' call to the police."
Zach was even more curious. Is this boy made of gold? All the police in the South District were dispatched? He didn't think Perls was exaggerating at this time.
"Did you find it?" Zach asked. First determine whether it is a tragedy or a complete comedy, and then decide what expression to use to ask why a boy took away the entire South District police force.
"No!" Pers became obviously irritated. He seemed to not want to say more about this matter and glared at Zach, "What happened yesterday is in today's newspaper! You won't be satisfied anyway, Grande's We just delayed calling the police, that’s the fact, it’s up to you to do whatever you want!”
This guy feels like he's broken.
Zach curled his lips, stuck his head out, felt the sunshine that was starting to warm up, and waved his hand, "Wait."
Since Old Hank wasn't here, there was no one to pick up the newspaper. Zach stepped off the back porch and headed east.
There was a folded newspaper stuffed in Grande's mailbox. Zach took it out, opened it, and scanned the pages of articles while walking back along the shade of the tree.
Soon, in a small corner of the social page, I discovered the incident that captured all the energy of the South District.
'The boy is missing, clothes and items continue to appear on the east coast, the police have organized police forces... '
On the back porch of Grande, Perls didn't wait long before Zach came back with the newspaper under his arm, "How's old Mel?"
Peers was not surprised that Grande knew the person in question. The Southern District is a rural area in Barton City. There are not many shops in the countryside. Except for the Big Q Supermarket in the north, the only place where you can find some bargains is Old Mel's second-hand store.
"What else can I do besides blaming myself for not keeping an eye on my grandson!" Pers glanced at Zach and turned away with his lips twitching, not wanting to look at this guy. "Now you know, it's just a 'little thing' for ordinary little people in the South District. That’s it! We delayed your Grande just because of an old man that everyone in the South District likes, that’s all, go complain to your backers.”
Complain, how is it possible? From the beginning, Zach was just bored enough to ask something earlier. We all know that Grande has nothing to lose. One night, it is just old Hank sleeping next to the skull.
Zach put on a sad expression and held the newspaper in his hand, "I also like old Mel very much, and I have also met that chubby boy. The search on the coastline does require a lot of manpower, and I understand it. I hope I can find it in the end. Hey , if Grande can help, Mr. Director, please speak up."
The newly mobilized police officers also arrived at the scene. Those in the Grande building were already the first ones to arrive. The newly arrived police officers directly expanded the scope and quickly acted in the backyard and Grande's two warehouses. Grande is starting to get crowded.
Pers glanced at Zach in disgust, "Huh! Fix your own mess first, and then worry about others!"
Zach kept his sad expression and didn't respond. This is really a pity. More people gathered in the Grande, which means that Pers gave up and gave up on the last case where the police gathered.
That fat boy will probably never be found again. (..)
