In the backyard of the Grand House, a piece of land about the size of a fist had obvious signs of being renovated. Under the dirt, there was a sealed glass bottle. It was originally a jar that Alice used to pickle cucumbers, but now it contained a bunch of tied heads and a spelled soul-inducing seed.
This is Ryan's only support in the world now. From now on, the Grande House has a new member who does not consume food.
The Earthbinder literally means Ryan's first unexpected death, tethering him to the football locker room in Reiput. Now it can be guessed that in order to preserve his consciousness and prevent him from becoming a lost soul, his family is silently protecting his 'remnant'.
As written on the self-burning oil paper, Ryan had countless questions, but he couldn't ask them. Because he was now bound to the Grand House, all he could do was float behind James with his vicious eyes, and use his own words to attack Detective Lance's tangled heart.
"Yes! Just leave with guilt! I hope you can sleep peacefully at night! Police! Detective!" On the dirt road leaving the Grand House, Ryan's range of activities reached the limit. He stared at James' back and shouted wantonly, but no one could hear him except James.
What else could one expect? Ryan is just a boy who has not graduated from high school. In the five-part process of facing death and grief, he has spent three years in "denial" and is in the middle of "anger" and "argument". between. James, who had done nothing, was a perfect target for blame.
Benjamin, who was lying on the round floor of the warehouse, was chewing a hay straw that he got from nowhere. The hungry vampire seemed to be too harsh. After tomorrow, let's have a good talk with Zach.
In the afternoon, another visitor came to the Grand House, it was Laura.
Laura's interference eyes were a little swollen, and the banshee didn't know how to comfort her except preparing healing snacks for her friend. Kyle was forced to get on the bus to St. John's Middle School this afternoon, but Laura 'refused' to see her brother again, so she ran out again.
Laura, who was holding the plate, had no appetite today. The elder moved faster than she expected. Her fork slowly fiddled with the plate in front of her, but she didn't take a bite.
"Hmph! Someone actually cares about a guy like that!" Ryan crossed his arms and looked at Laura, who looked depressed.
Of course, no one responded to him.
"Kyle should have left Barton by now." Laura sat on Benjamin's bed, feeling disappointed, "I won't be able to see him in the next year."
"Perhaps, you can go visit him." Alice tried to comfort.
Laura shook her head, "I asked, visitors must get permission from the guardian. This is just like a prison!" Laura was a little angry. It seemed that she had understood the meaning of 'boarding school'.
"He should go to jail!" Ryan snorted coldly, "He is not a good person at all!"
"It's all that Connor!" Laura changed the target of her anger. "If it hadn't been for him, my brother wouldn't have quit the rugby team, and nothing would happen next! I hope he dies!"
"Hmph! Your wish has come true, are you happy?!" Ryan, who was not paying attention, swung his limbs in front of Laura's eyes...
The banshee was a little embarrassed, so she silently found a pair of scissors in Benjamin's drawer, and secretly scratched Ryan's transparent body several times. The figure of the earth-bound spirit wavered and disappeared. Fortunately, Laura kept her head down and didn't notice Alice's strange behavior.
"Don't be like this." Alice sat next to her friend, "That's not what you meant."
The Banshee is the person in the world who knows best about "death coming from the mouth". Although Laura's willful words are already a fact, the banshee does not want her kind friend to feel guilty because of these unintentional and willful words in the future.
Laura leaned on Alice's shoulder and sighed softly: "I know. I didn't mean that, but I was really angry." Laura hugged Alice and thanked her friend for the reminder, "After the game yesterday, I've been looking for that guy Connor! I want to at least help Kyle out! Why should my brother go to 'St. John' and he becomes a 'star'! I'm not convinced!"
Alice patted Laura on the back. Laura was just mentally unbalanced.
"But that guy is too annoying!" Laura left Alice's shoulder, "I finally found him at the celebration party, but before anything happened, he pushed me away!"
Alice frowned. In time, Alice seemed to be dangerously close to something.
"I have always known that Connor is not a good guy!" Laura seemed to feel a little relieved for a moment: "Who knows who this guy provoked, I saw a tall and strong man grabbing him! Huh! I hope that guy can repair it..."
"Stop!" Alice nervously stopped her friend's narration, "Stop it, Laura!"
Laura was stunned and looked at Alice, whose shoulders were shaking slightly: "What's wrong, Alice?"
"No, it's nothing..." Alice shook her head, her eyes flashed past Laura's searching eyes, and she stood up: "Laura, wait a moment, I'll go out for a while."
"What's wrong?" Laura didn't know what happened and stood up confused, "I'll go with you."
"No, no need." Alice turned her head in panic, refusing to allow Laura to follow her. The banshee held on to the guardrail on the second floor of the warehouse with one hand and held her long skirt with the other, anxiously running down the stairs towards the Grand House.
Benjamin on the circle frowned, thought for a while, stood up softly, and jumped away from the Grand House. Why? Since Alice is obviously going to find a vampire, it's better for the werewolf to keep some distance.
Why look for Zach? Because it is foreseeable that by tomorrow at the latest, Barton City's auto industry tycoon William Herman will cause trouble with the Barton Police Department over the disappearance of his precious only son. In time, Alice's friend Laura will realize that her willful anger is the most direct cause of Connor Herman's disappearance!
"You!" Ryan's still very blurry body floated in front of Laura, who was still confused. "You saw me being caught! You didn't stop him! You! You are also a murderer! You! The murderer!"
Alice pushed open the back of the Grand House and ran directly to the basement. She asked the vampire Zach to use the enchantment eye to make Laura forget everything she saw and prevent her from falling into the guilt of not belonging to her. Feeling.
Here is a question, why does the Banshee remind others of their death? Because they couldn't ignore what they saw, the guilt was unbearable. No sixteen year old girl should have to deal with such guilt.
The phone in Zach's office rang.
"Grand House, we can't answer the phone right now, please leave a message."
The answering machine's cassette began to spin with a clicking sound.
"This is the Barton Police Department. We are investigating the disappearance of Connor Herman. The investigation shows that Laura Barton will be helpful to the case. She is with you now. Our officers are on the way. Please cooperate..."
