Zach returned to Grande for the time being, as there was still time for Zach to think and decide what to do.
Zach, who ran out of Grand for a moment of personal evil, didn't want to miss important things happening in Grand.
Zach was lucky. He had just returned to Grande, Benjamin hadn't left yet, and there were a few more people in Grande. James, Crowley, Taylor, and Kyle are all here.
Before Zach had time to greet these people with different purposes, the phone in the office rang.
With anticipation and speculation about the caller, Zach answered the phone, "Grand."
In the noisy receiver, as soon as the other party spoke, Zach could imagine that the expressionless face was that of the shapechanger Jin. But what he said was, "It's me, 'Duke'. I've arrived."
Do you know what Zach’s expectations are? It's to personally give gold to the shapechanger, ah no, guard the palace. He explained to the guardian in person that he had gone against the expected plan - he would not follow the guardian and go to the Republic.
Let's ignore the historical background of the name 'Gecko', the Shapeshifter will be the only Grand member in the Republic this time. He no longer had a master in Grande, and Zach had promised him backup. In the garrison of the Republic, you will not have anyone to rely on, you can only rely on yourself.
Zach owed him an explanation.
"First of all, I need to apologize." Zach said with a faint smile, "The plan has changed a bit. Benjamin and I can't go to the Republic."
In the noisy receiver, Shou Gong was silent for a while, "I know, it doesn't matter, I don't want you to come either."
Zach frowned slightly, "Is it bad?"
"Yes." Shou Gong's reply was brief, "No."
Zach pursed his lips, he and Benjamin were right not to go. The republican teams each have very complicated goals. The only guard who arrived first and provided special political protection now seems to have gone with his own purpose, otherwise he would not have said such a thing.
Zach shook his head, "Not only that, among the people who are about to go, in addition to Sibella and John, there are also Crowley, Saint Sissy and her followers." Zach paused, "They all have The same but different purposes, can you cope with them?"
This is a caring inquiry.
After a murmur of silence, "I don't have to deal with it. When they come, no matter what their purpose is, they will abide by the rules."
Zach didn't quite understand the meaning of this sentence. It was obvious that the skinchanger Jin was describing the environment of the Republic. It's a pity that Grande's master is just a small federal citizen, and Zach doesn't understand world events.
"So." Zach said no more, "Where is your location? The people here are about to leave."
"The consulate has given Taylor a seat. Don't stay on the phone for too long. Hang up."
The call is over.
The priority of the incident has emerged and Tyler and John enter the office.
These people were about to leave, and Zach didn't care that John broke the rules and entered the main building of Grande.
A map was placed on the desk. Taylor, who hadn't seen him for a few days, had no expression on his face. Pointing to a point, he said, "This is the capital of the Republic, and the federal mission is here."
Zach looked at that point on the map, the conspicuous red star, which was the same color as the body shapechanger. But it's important to note that this map is not new. Zach could imagine that the only red star on the map should have been bright red, but it faded over time and became its current dull color.
"Inland?" Zach looked at John, "I remember you said that Papa's midnight witchcraft uses the ocean as a carrier. To form a channel, can you bring people to... the capital."
"No." John shook his head without any expression. He pointed to a place to the east, looking at the sign that it should be a port. "If we can get here, then we can move towards the capital."
"That's not a problem." Taylor glanced at Zach, "You can't expect them to be in the most complicated situation once they go to the Republic. This journey will allow them to adapt well and find their 'direction'."
The composition of the team is very complicated, the Republic is very complicated, and the direction is very important.
It makes sense, but Zach actually has no objection to any arrangement. The reason is simple. It's none of Zach's business anymore, right.
"I don't care what you went to do, bring Teddy back." Zach waved his hand and drove the two away. This was Zach's only request for this team.
Leaving the office, people in the backyard are ready. While it's unknown why Benjamin is still in Grande, he offers his help at this time.
The big truck that Grande used to haul livestock was driven out. Benjamin re-covered the plastic paper and helped Sibella get on the trunk. Sissi and Thomas were already sitting on it, including White Raging Waves.
Grande's personal belongings, the camera and the videotape containing Papa's midnight token were packed and kept by John, who sat in the driver's seat. Crowley seemed to have no intention of getting in the car and stood in the back with Zach. Watching everyone on the porch getting ready to go.
When the truck drove out of the backyard, Crowley smiled and spoke, explaining to Zach, "The wizard's mobility is too poor, so Benjamin generously lent your car as a means of transportation for the wizard. They have to go to the east coast first. , and then..." Crowley blinked.
The essential principle of John's improved witchcraft based on Papa's midnight token is naturally the same. Teddy disappeared at the seaside, and this group of people will also disappear at the seaside.
It just seemed that John's improved witchcraft not only greatly increased the number of people he could bring, but he could also bring large objects—cars. Because of the time difference, everyone does not have to worry about secrecy. Such a group of people with outstanding abilities have enough methods to integrate into the country on the other side of the world under the republican night after arrival.
"I have to remind you." Zach looked at Crowley's leisurely look, "If you don't take the opportunity to develop a tacit understanding with your team members now, you have already missed too much time."
A very sincere reminder. Look, even though Sissi brought her own men with her, she still knew that she would come to Grande yesterday in advance to get familiar with her teammates. Not to mention John, he has always been in Grande.
Then look at Crowley. She didn't prepare any subordinates at all. The previous few days were wasted on 'discussing' something with Taylor. Now she doesn't have any Buddhism or anything. I don't know if it's because of self-confidence or not. madness.
At this time, Zach had realized Barton's chaotic current situation. Zach naturally didn't want to be confident, but stupid, Crowley was not a stupid person.
"Develop a tacit understanding with those people?" Crowley seemed to have heard something funny. "What did you want me to cultivate with the saints? A tacit understanding of plotting against each other? As for Sibella and John, have you forgotten that they are still My hostage. We're not on the same level as me, and we can't develop anything."
Zach shook his head, too lazy to care, and prepared to walk to Benjamin's warehouse. James didn't know why he appeared here. He was hiding at Benjamin's place, chatting with Matthew and Benjamin about the Comic Con.
"Don't leave in a hurry." Crowley sat down on the bench on the back porch and fiddled with her short hair casually. "It will take some time for them to get to the coastline, just in time for us to talk about the things you are interested in. Southeast. department."
Zach raised an eyebrow. When he was at the police station yesterday, Chapman conveyed something to Zach without being noticed, and asked a question at the same time. Zach answered that question less obviously.
Chapman, Skull, Crowley. That's the order.
Zach looked at Crowley, sat down next to the bench, curled his lips, and said something irrelevant, "I still don't know your name, what should I call you..." Zach gestured. looked at 'Crawley'.
This is talking about Crowley's container. Honestly. Zack didn't quite understand why Crowley used such a wandering mad woman as a vessel.
Crowley responded with a very aggrieved look. Zach tilted his head uncomfortably. Container or not, Crowley was not suited to this demeanor.
"It's better not to know. Anthony deliberately changed her name to something that is unspeakable." Crowley smiled, "Crawley is very good."
"What are you going to say?" Zach didn't know what funny thing had occurred to him, he chuckled and waved his hand, "I don't want to take you too long. Let your teammates wait. Your impression is already very bad, there is no need. worse."
"Thank you." Crowley also smiled, "Okay, let's get started. Chapman passed the matter to Skoll yesterday, and I was busy. I still paid attention to it for you."
Zach was at the police station yesterday and clearly told Southeast and Xin. He did not expect Chapman to provide any useful help, but the clues had been passed on.
"Have you found the person who wrote the letter?" Zach's tone was not very enthusiastic, because he already knew it from Emilia's constant reminders, and this was just another confirmation.
"I found it." Crowley looked at Zach's expression and squinted her eyes, "You don't seem to care much?"
"Because I already know it." Zach smiled, "It doesn't matter, you can continue. Maybe you know something I don't know."
"It's so boring." Crowley's face turned somber, "You won't thank me."
What a realistic statement.
Zach raised his eyebrows and thought for a moment, "But you will make me..." Zach didn't know what funny thing he thought of again, and the smile on his face became even bigger, "When encountering something, of course I can rely on you. Feel."
Louise, who pushed out the door, glanced at Zach on the back porch, winked with her lips curled up, held the snacks prepared by Alice, and continued walking to Benjamin's warehouse with a smile.
The reason for this scene needs to be explained.
Kyle continues to harass Alice for unknown reasons. But after Benjamin dragged Alice to the kitchen to prepare dinner yesterday, Alice discovered that Kyle, Barton's young master, did not enter the kitchen. The reason, well, I won't go into it.
So Alice discovers a new skill for getting rid of Kyle, finding any excuse to trap herself in the kitchen. The reason for using it now is to prepare snacks for Benjamin, James, and Matthew to go to Comic Con. Louise shuttled back and forth to deliver things for the owner to try.
return.
Crowley was a little dazed, and after a moment of reaction, she understood what Zach meant, "Do you think you can rely on him for granted?" She smiled, "I like this kind of relationship."
"Like it." Zach naturally smiled more beautifully. Of course, Zach understands this 'beautiful performance', Louise understands it, Bisharp... Ms. Sher understands it, we understand it, Crowley, she is the most Don't understand, haha.
"Then go ahead." Zach demanded matter-of-factly.
Crowley seemed to be completely immersed in the emotion of liking this beautiful relationship, and she started talking more, "Well! Let's start from the beginning." She raised her hand, "Skoll is paying some attention to the case in the southeast, and some gangs are here We are discussing this case and waiting to see how the police will handle it."
Zach didn't speak, feeling a little regretful. These gang members from the southeast couldn't wait any longer, and even James had given up. Detective Coulson, as an old police detective, was too shrewd. He could just reply to the orders from his superiors, "General." 'No, I won't touch it.
Speaking of which, the reason for this convenience was created by Zach because of Grande's interests. It is indeed difficult for fairness and interests to coexist.
"But we know you are involved, at least Skoll doesn't have any hope." Crowley chuckled and looked at Zach.
Zach just tilted his head and kept smiling.
"The only regret is that Skull canceled the night patrol because he knew about your actions." Crowley raised her eyebrows, "In order to provide you with a comfortable 'hunting' environment, I went to Skoll's place. One completely misses the point in time when the case occurred.”
This means that the demons, who knew that Zach would stock up on food for the trip to the Republic, did not pay attention to the movements in the southeast at night and early in the morning as usual in order not to be disliked in front of the vampires.
If you think deeply about it, please contact the reason why Crowley took over the Skull in the first place. Crowley was determined to integrate the southeast. This action is not surprising at all. On the contrary, it reveals Crowley's determination and ability to act!
However, Zach would not point out these at this time. Instead, he would cater to Crowley and say, "That's it. You are so considerate. I know that I can count on you for anything."
As expected, Crowley was very happy, "Of course, did you just find out? There is a reason why the mayor likes to instruct the church to do things."
Zach was still smiling, but at the same time, Zach felt the need to talk to Anthony.
"What's comforting is that it's not too late for Chapman to bring the news." Crowley finished happily emboldening herself and continued on to the topic, "And with the clues in the letter and the time when the case occurred, Our goals are clear."
"At three or four o'clock this morning." Crowley paused and looked at Zach, "That is, after the time you went to the southeast two times before..."
This aggravates the sense of targeting. After all, no one has ever read the content of the letter in the interpersonal relationship from Chapman to Crowley. What Crowley expresses is related to the fact that Zach can let Chap in the police station. Mann heard and said to Coulson and James, 'Framed'.
"Our people found someone."
Zach took out the letter he had read to James and Amelia before, "Did you say this?"
"Yes." Crowley smiled, waving her fingers in front of her, and something like black smoke appeared out of thin air, squirming and expanding, the sound of paper turning came out in the squirming mist, and something like paper night appeared in the air. A corner emerged from the inky blackness.
"Address, name, family composition..." Crowley laughed incomprehensibly, "Even medical records." She stretched her fingers directly into the ink black, revealed a bunch of things, and put them on Zach's hand, "I I brought them all to you.”
Zach looked at the pile of information in front of him and smiled, "Look, I said, you will know some things that I don't know." Corresponding to what Crowley just said, 'Bring them all', Zach said With a look of relief on his face, "Look, I know I can count on you, thank you."
"Of course." Crowley stood up and even patted Zach on the shoulder, with a smile on her face, "I am a very trustworthy person."
"Don't be late." Zach hugged a pile of information, finally smiled at Crowley and left.
One is to create the feeling that he needs these things too much and can't wait to study them. Second, our vampire is laughing so hard that he is going into cramps. He needs some food to relieve his stiff blood vessels... (..)
