Letting the two wizards do what they should do, Zach returned to sit on the bench on the back porch again, waiting for Benjamin.
Although vampires naturally reject anything related to witchcraft, they can't help but be curious. When I get bored looking at the night sky, I hold my glass in my hand and walk to Benjamin's warehouse. I look at the cameras and video tapes that have been dismantled into countless parts and scattered in the open space in front of the haystacks. I tilt my head and pull Pulling the corner of his mouth, he told the two wizards, "This is Grande's property, don't damage it."
Swing back to the bench and continue looking at the night sky. Well, Zach is still helpless while wasting his life. He probably won't be able to find a solution before Benjamin comes back.
It was almost an hour after midnight, far longer than the time Zach and Benjamin usually returned. The vampire used his eyes to encourage the moon in the night sky to cheer up, while tilting his head, always paying attention to the quiet road.
Finally, the Grande truck drove into the backyard.
Benjamin got out of the car with an irritated look, first looked at Zach, and then at his own warehouse, frowning, "Why are there two wizards in my bedroom."
"Little things." Zach waved his hand. He was asking Benjamin, who had become the protagonist of the incident, to develop a stress-free mood from now on. "Don't worry about them." Zach showed a searching look, "How was the party? went well?"
"It went well." Benjamin was obviously more concerned about his 'bedroom'. He looked in the direction of the warehouse, answered Zach's question casually, and continued to ask, "What are they doing?"
"Things like witchcraft." Zach showed a lazy expression of concern, waved his hands carelessly, and then continued to ask what he wanted to ask, "Do they all believe Grande's situation? Do they? What have you uncovered?"
Zach naturally asked the people in the gray professional circle if they had found out any information about Herman.
Benjamin frowned and still looked in the direction of the warehouse. Take a few steps to get a fuller view. The two wizards looked at Benjamin and then at Zach. Obviously not wanting to participate in the conversation between the two Grand masters, he continued busy with what he was doing without saying a word.
Benjamin scratched his shoulder with a confused expression, "Is that our camera? You asked them to dismantle our camera. Why?" After asking the question he cared about first, Benjamin tilted his head and said, "Not so fast. They are now more concerned about the memos leaking out of our Grande."
Memorandum records that record numerous surnames in the West End.
Zach raised his eyebrows and thought of something bad, "How much do you care? Who do you care about most?" Zach was worried that everyone would not focus on picking up Herman as he planned, but would instead pick up Gran. Go up to what De did for the West Enders.
For example, Bishop, Zach and Skoll did not anticipate Bishop's son when they were making plans at the dinner table. Jackson would be murdered at about the same time. Only now did Zach think that maybe he should worry about someone making the wrong association and misfocusing.
"Didn't the 'General' focus on correcting these mistakes?" Zach asked. The 'General' directly leaked the information from Skoll, which was the most accurate. "And No, he should think of something."
The message channel cannot completely isolate the circulating information, just like James is the police. But his sources were mainly 'generals' alike. People in the gray professional circle also have their own sources, Zach can imagine. Everyone at the party had varying levels of information.
Zach waved his hand, "Did you guide Herman in the direction?"
Benjamin nodded, "'General' and Nuo both helped." Then he shook his head, "You can't expect everyone to follow your plan and only focus on Herman, in the end. Indeed, they will, but in the process, they also There’s a lot to focus on.”
Benjamin frowned, he was not very good at talking about the content of these entangled relationships, and clicked his tongue. For example, "Nuo has been testing what I know and helping me guide, but he is also trying to draw everyone's attention to Smith."
Zach raised his eyebrows, understanding.
The gray professional circle, which has always called itself a professional circle, has never become a trade union. In addition to its own legal issues, more importantly, it is a group of people who gather together to exchange information and help each other. Its essence is not unity, but the convenience of information sharing and resource aggregation.
Benjamin was right, in the end, their eyes would definitely fall on Herman. But on the way to the end, they wouldn't mind hoarding useful information at the excavation points along the way, maybe it would be used one day.
Zach tilted his head and could only hope that these guys who get together once a week would not spend too long on the road. If they go the wrong way, they would be helpless.
Benjamin suddenly turned his head, no longer looking at his warehouse, but staring at the second floor of Grande, "Why did I hear James snoring." Alpha's eyes were fixed on the vampire, "In my cub room inside."
"Wes." Zach answered evasively, "I asked him to go to Hank's room, but he didn't want to." Zach spread his hands, "It's not surprising at all."
It took Benjamin a moment to understand what Zach was saying. Because of Wes, James will stay here, and because Old Hank's room is empty and involves something that makes James unhappy, so...
Likewise, this also means that Zach was absent from the Gray Professional Circle gathering, and the matters he needed to resolve while staying in Grande were not resolved. Not only is it not solved, it seems to have made it even more troublesome.
Benjamin curled his lips, looked at Grande, and then at the warehouse, "Teddy hasn't been found yet. When will you be able to finish what you found for nothing? I don't want two wizards to watch me sleep." Benjamin Frowning, he had already done this passively once, and it felt weird.
"Oh!" Zach raised his eyebrows, "It depends on the situation." Zach waved his hand with a disgusted expression, "By the way, I forgot to tell you, Teddy's disappearance is related to Papa Midnight It's related." Zach sighed, "You know, anything related to him is very troublesome."
Benjamin was stunned for a moment, blinked subconsciously, turned to look at the two wizards who were still fiddling with parts in the warehouse, and then looked at Zach.
Zach was of no use at all. He swung his wine glass with a look of disgust on his face, as if the two wizards were occupying something other than Alpha's bedroom. But the same as his bedroom.
Benjamin thought for a while and frowned, "What does he want?"
"You." Zach took a sip of his wine and grinned his lips in relief. Then his expression changed to one of disgust and trouble, and he pointed in the direction of the warehouse. "That camera, you won't believe it." Zach smacked his lips, "That thing was tampered with by Papa Midnight last time."
Benjamin frowned and thought as Zach spoke.
"So he saw the scene you specially took for me when the moon was full last time." Zach actually rolled his eyes, "'Amazing.'" Zach continued his rolling eyes, "He actually described it like this! So he wanted it." Zach concluded with a wave of his hand, "He took Teddy away and wanted to exchange it. Can you believe it? What a disgusting guy."
silence.
Even though Zach used such a narrative style and tone that made people unable to concentrate, Benjamin still frowned and fell completely silent. The vampire's attempt to 'manipulate' Alpha's emotions was considered a failure.
"Teddy for me." Benjamin said in confirmation after silence.
"Exchange?" Zach would not give up easily, "I will not exchange anything with that guy." Zach shook the wine glass, with a look of disgust on his face as he had mobilized all the vampire's body control, "Nothing. Won't give it to him, we have to get Teddy back. Maybe..."
Zach suddenly laughed. He raised his chin in the direction of the two wizards, "What else can I bring back."
Benjamin also looked at the two wizards. Sibella and John must have heard what Zach said and looked over. There was no agreement or denial, they just stared at each other expressionlessly for a while, then turned away and went about their own business.
Benjamin thought for a while and shook his head. "Are you staying optimistic?"
Zach, "I'm telling the truth."
Benjamin thought for a while, twitched his lips, turned around and walked towards Grande, "When the time comes. Tell me what you want to do."
Watching Benjamin step onto the back porch, Zach frowned and lost all his peaceful expressions, "Benjamin, I will not leave you to Papa Midnight."
Zach is not the right guy to say that.
Wasn't Ian given away by his 'father'? Zach's only explanation was that the person involved made his own decision. Ian wanted to go on his own, so Zach let him go!
Maybe there's a reason why Zach doesn't really like this descendant, or maybe there's a reason why Zach let him go once (Zach's favorite descendant is Anthony, and Ian became a vampire because Anthony asked him to save Ian. Later, because of Ian En is not Zac's ideal Toledo descendant. He is warlike and extreme, and was abandoned during the war. Volume 3).
Benjamin looked back at Zach, opened the stairwell door and went up without saying anything.
Not long after, I heard the muffled sound of someone being thrown to the ground in Matthew's room on the second floor. The guy didn't wake up, and his steady breathing and heartbeat reached the vampire's ears against the floor.
Zach frowned and waited for a while. Alpha, who had grown up again, was like a carefree boy who had just started to grow up. His breathing became steady and he fell asleep.
The vampire in the backyard walked around the yard, and the waiting that had been going on since the afternoon was completely over. That inexplicable and annoying feeling of 'wasting life' completely disappeared. But Zach's mood didn't improve at all.
Walking around to the door of the warehouse, Zach waved his hand, threw the long-empty wine glass and bottle into the hay, and walked towards the two wizards.
"Anything I find, I want to hear about it. Now." Zach no longer wanted to talk nonsense about damaging Grande's property. He stared at the parts lying on the ground and spoke in a bad tone.
"Do you want to see it?" John glanced at Zach, his expression wasn't very good either. He was tired from staying up late and also irritable. "Then I'll let you see it."
John directly raised his foot and stepped on it hard. The crackling sound was the camera lens shattering and scattering under his feet.
Zach frowned and stared at John's feet, full of ridicule, "What do you want me to see? Can you crush the glass under your feet? It's so awesome..."
John's feet moved away, and the shattered transparent pieces rolled together. The lens appeared intact on the spot. The only evidence that the thing had just been trampled to pieces was that there were a few small pits on the ground under the transparent mirror.
Vampire Zach had a sullen face, his eyes flashing red unconsciously, "Very good, I can now confirm that you will not damage Grande's property."
"Hmph." Sibella was holding a certain part in her hand, and the red witchcraft incantation was spinning around the part. She didn't know what it was doing, "That's not necessarily true."
Sibella's face looked more tired than John's, which was a weakness brought about by age. But at the same time, this is also her 'advantage', whether in terms of emotional control or highly targeted dialogue, "When we break down the protective barrier set by Papa Midnight. You like this property so much, It's best to make plans and buy a new one." Sibella snorted coldly and repeated the last two words, "New one."
Zach pursed his lips and resisted the pun attack. etc! No, it’s three levels! Vampires like cameras? The current Gangluo is barely okay, but our Tori Dozak should forget it.
Zach was silent for a while, and with the generosity of his master, he let go of Sibella's attack, "Remind me again of your plan."
"I actually like your optimism a little bit." John also picked up a certain part, and the red spell shone in his hand. "Plan?" He shook his head, "It's not even a concept."
"Then tell me again, what's the 'concept' for which you want to take apart Grande's belongings?" Zach glanced at John, not really asking, but asking for an explanation.
In the office before, when Zach asked John what he proposed, the two wizards looked at each other and said, "We need to check these two things first before talking."
The wizard's inspection is what everyone sees now, demolished.
"Alfa's picture was sent to Papa Midnight, and Teddy was also captured to him, right." John breathed deeply, sorted out his words, and looked at Zach, "You know how he did it Of?"
Zach twitched his lips and said, "I am a vampire." This was Zach's implicit way of saying, 'I hate witchcraft, how would I know. '
John curled his lips, "I know you are a vampire." John shook his head helplessly, "So it is only up to us, the wizards, to discover these 'passages' leading to Papa Midnight."
"What's the use of discovering the 'channel'?" Zach continued to ask for an explanation.
Without waiting for an answer, Zach figured it out himself.
The vampire shook his head. This 'plan' was indeed not even a concept. Zach waved his hand, turned around and left the warehouse, saying the same thing as Benjamin, "When the time comes, tell me what you want to do."
As for the passage, if nothing uses this passage, what's the point of discovering it. (..)
