On the early morning of Tuesday, the routine of sending Alice off was actually snatched away by James, "I'll deliver." He pushed Alice into the car.
"Are you going out?" Zach asked. Because James didn't have to go to work, the big case he was assigned by the director was fake, and even the job of pretending to investigate was left to the 'naive' Coulson. When he went to the police station, he could only be in a daze.
"Yeah." James replied.
Zach curled his lips and got into the car consciously, "Then take me for a ride."
James looked at Zach in the rearview mirror, "What are you going to do?"
"Go visit an alien named Didi and do Steve a small favor."
Ah, about yesterday's visit from Steve, James avoided it. Thinking this way, if you are in your position, you will seek your job. James what, right, police. What is Steve, a criminal who buys and sells identities, what is he doing in Grande, discussing crime. so…
Yesterday, James deliberately avoided it and didn't ask. Anyway, the result would be displayed in front of him regardless of his wishes and thoughts, which was meaningless. It was the same today. James curled his lips and started the car. He didn't want Zach to follow, "What about you?"
James was not prepared to answer at all.
Zach raised his eyebrows and thought for a moment, "You want to play with Wes?"
James took a deep breath. It wasn't as Zach guessed, but James didn't have many reasons to go out.
Alice felt a sense of responsibility and wanted to change the atmosphere in the car. "Caesar transferred here. He is a senior. He ran to Laura yesterday afternoon and said he wanted to join the club. As a result..." Alice blinked, realizing that what she was about to say had a negative impact on the atmosphere. It was of no help. "I ran away with Sissi halfway."
The car was quiet. Until Zach looked out the window and said, "I'm here."
The car stopped, Zach got out of the car, and he had time to say goodbye. James stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
Zach didn't have a deep impression of Didi's family, and it had something to do with the Mirror Man's race. If you think the mermaid Mollman is not a threat, it is because he is a non-terrestrial creature, and everything on land is irrelevant to this mermaid. Zach could only say how he felt about the Mirror Man, whether he wanted it or not. The Mirror Man will be there anyway.
What is the Mirror Man? They are soul aliens. A rather special alien race of souls. They don't come from earthbound spirits, they come from wandering spirits.
When the earth-bound spirit has no faith to guide it to its future destination, it also has no consciousness to move towards the next stage of its life. As the band shrinks, all contact with the world is lost. The soul mark, that is, when all consciousness disappears, becomes a wandering soul that has lost the meaning of its own existence. Then, the shrinking and eventually disappearing band touches something.
Things abandoned by existing people, dignity, will, morality, integrity... whatever. Discarded things belong to whoever finds them, and thus, the Mirror Man was born. But don’t think this is the luck of wandering spirits and mirror people.
Zach stood in front of the door and rang the doorbell.
"Wait a minute, I'm coming!" The woman's voice, Zach thought about it, must be Didi.
Zach walked casually on the front porch. Listening to the movement in the house, he looked at his feet in confusion. The weak breathing and heartbeat... The suspicion is that Zach is hungry, and the weakness makes Zach unsure. The skill of controlling blood flow needs to be honed, and Zach can't choose the opposite exercise method of starvation, remember.
The door opened.
Zach glanced at Didi, curled his lips, and pointed at the other person's ears. "You missed a piece."
Didi was first surprised that there was a vampire standing at the door of his house. He was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed, lowered his head and touched the base of his ear, playing with it for a long time. He tilted his head and said, "Okay, are you okay?"
Zach looked at the other person's incomplete earlobe, which was a hollow mirror under his skin, and shook his head, "No, you'd better do it again."
"Ah -" Didi shook her head vigorously, showing annoyance, "It's getting more and more difficult now! Come in!" He left the door open for the vampire, then turned around and ran, entering the nearest kitchen, holding up a With only a shiny shovel, she tilted her head and began to repair her face.
Zach started visiting Didi's house, "Did you fall down the stairs? I can feel the cracks under your skin."
"Haha." Didi didn't look at the vampire looking around, "Just think of me as such. You can sit back, my husband has gone out and won't be back for a while."
Zach was very disobedient and walked around other people's homes. Finally, he stood in the corridor behind the living room and looked at a door on the wall. "Is this the basement?"
"Yes." Didi put down the shovel and tilted his head to watch Zach's movements.
Being so close, Zach had nothing to doubt. There was someone below, a young man, maybe a teenager, but his vitality was as weak as a dying guy, "Who is below."
Didi walked out of the kitchen and winked at Zak Zak, "Are you here for anything?"
Zach thought about it and looked sideways at Didi, "I'll help Steve find the real address of Didi."
Didi raised an eyebrow.
Zach waved his hand, "When Steve checked the address, he found that she had moved. He guessed that she was living with the man she was getting married to, so she needed a new address."
Didi smiled, "Oh, that's it, xxxx." She reported a string of addresses, "Try this, she mentioned changing her address before, and I'm not sure, haha, if not, I have to trouble Mr. Walker. "
Zach noted it down and knocked on the basement door symbolically, "Do you want to tell who is down there?"
"No." Didi smiled.
Zach raised his eyebrows, looked at the door lock, and said, "Open it."
"I'm afraid I can't." Didi tilted her head, still smiling, "As you can see, it's getting harder and harder for me to maintain this body. If my dear husband attacks me again, maybe I won't be able to go back. .”
"So your husband locked up someone down there." Zach decided to smile with the other person.
"Yes, haha, my dear, dear Nick."
Zach nodded. The soul alien race has always been Sibella's 'professional'. Zach didn't know much about their living conditions. The reason why Didi knew him was because he was in the South District and settled in Grande. Ke and Benjamin did a check-up, and they just knew that the other party existed.
"You are dying." Zach stepped away from the door and continued walking casually, "Mirror Man, no matter what you picked up from the real Diddy, she is picking up these things that she once gave up..." Zach saw the backyard . Pushing the door open and walking out, you see a small tool room.
Most families in the Southern District have a small room like this where they store some farm tools and tools. The development of the Southern District is not developed, and people often have to rely on themselves.
"... She's getting married, right?" Zach walked towards the tool room, "It seems she has found a new 'honey'. Congratulations to her, sorry to you."
"I didn't know you were so compassionate." Didi followed Zach, "Thank you?"
"No need." Zach smiled and turned back, "What's in there? What brand did I see?" The tool room was locked, but you could see the contents inside from the window, and there were a bunch of dusty farm tools piled together. A sign with the slogan, 'Death to Alan, jump into the incinerator like our loved ones! '
"Some handmade little things." Didi replied with a smile, "My dear Nick has a pair of skillful hands. He often makes novel little things."
Zach glanced at Didi and continued to smile, "Oh, Didi, stop pretending."
The smile on Didi's face lasted for two seconds before turning into a white eye, "Vampire, can't you let me start well and end well?"
"Me?" Zach was still laughing. "It's not me who doesn't love 'Dear Nick' anymore, it's Didi. You should feel it yourself. It's getting harder and harder to maintain your body, and your heart is getting more and more impatient to 'play' the role of Didi..."
"Of course I feel it." Didi interrupted Zach, "I am Didi. This definition is disappearing. When it disappears completely, it will also be the time when I return to wandering soul. Destruction. So, vampire, I don't need you. Reminder, I know it myself. Let me live this borrowed life and pass away peacefully. Don’t bother me."
"Don't you feel it's a pity?" Zach raised his eyebrows, "Although it is essentially something Didi once discarded, look at you, you already have self-awareness, starting from a wandering soul, and getting such an opportunity, In the end, it has to pass away like this and waste this luck, wouldn’t you feel sad?”
"Why are you sad?" Didi shook his head, "When I was a wandering soul, I had no consciousness at all and didn't know what an opportunity was. When I was conscious, I was already Didi, a hopeless, cowardly, self-exiled Didi. Lucky? I do not think so."
Zach raised his eyebrows, "Then you have nothing to worry about. Open the door and let me go in and take a look, as well as the basement. Anyway, you disappeared not long after, so I don't think I will disturb anything now."
Didi frowned, glanced at Zach, shook his head irritably, and opened the tool room, "Look, they are just some signs protesting the compensation of Allen Funeral Home. You, the owner of Grande, what do you have? Don’t care.”
Zach stepped in and casually flipped through the sign with such sensational words, "Comer, why don't you be curious? I don't know if you've heard that, because of these protests, Allen transferred the work to Grande , Mr. Gallagher’s funeral, do you know him?”
"We know each other." Didi just chatted casually, "Is this an old man who often goes to church? He once again discovered the bruises on my body, and he questioned me for a long time before trying to explain it away."
Zach glanced at Dee Dee and just confirmed, "Nick hit you?"
"Otherwise, would I really be stupid enough to fall down the stairs?"
Zach smiled and shook his head, "Would the real Didi say such things?"
Didi shut up, not wanting to respond to Zach's reminder that she already knew herself.
"These protests..." Zach had already finished flipping through the signs. All kinds of curses about killing the whole family and not having a good death were filled among the signs. The police's shameful investigation was actually right. This conflict has indeed intensified to the point where it is out of control and cannot be reconciled. , "What's the purpose? Ask Allen to pay additional compensation?" Of course, otherwise, the ashes that were burned to ashes can be reunited and buried again.
"Yes." Didi was obviously impatient, "To put it bluntly, it's just for money. Anyway, Nick is like this. He didn't react when he asked for compensation before. But recently, he suddenly got crazy and started doing this, saying how much he can make. That’s how much.”
"Suddenly? Isn't this protest ongoing?"
"No, uh, there are people who are dissatisfied with the Allen Funeral Home, but they haven't done anything." She glanced at Zach, "Why don't their former relatives be buried in Grande?" This was a mockery of Grande. Regarding De's treatment, "it really became so intense more than a week ago."
"Are you participating too?"
"I have to deliver food to my dear husband who works hard for his rights!"
Zach curled up the corners of his mouth, he was smiling anyway and there was no need to hide it.
"Okay, let's go to the basement." Zach had seen enough, dusted off his hands and walked ahead.
"No need to look at it." Didi tidied it up behind him to make it look like no one had looked over it. "It's Allen's son. He was kidnapped when he went to school early yesterday morning."
Zach raised his eyebrows, "Are you involved?"
"Of course not. When I found out, he was already tied up in the basement. His desperate howling woke me up."
"Are you still sleeping?" Surprised.
"We've been doing this and that for Nick since we started." He glared at Zach impatiently and said, "Just pretending."
"Didi will..." Is this so? I didn't finish the sentence.
"No!" The mirror man has fully felt Zach's bad taste, "Are you happy?! I have a sense of autonomy, and then I'm going to die! I should feel sorry for myself! Are you happy?!"
Zach still smiled, "I'm sorry."
Didi re-locked the tool room behind Zach, "If you have nothing to do, leave. I said you can sit down to be polite. Nick doesn't know when he will come back, and he doesn't like anyone visiting."
"Alan's son is very weak." Zach, who was ordered to be expelled, reminded him.
"I know. Nick beat me. Don't worry, you won't die. Nick is very experienced."
"This Nick, what does he want?" Zach asked as he was urged towards the main entrance.
"Money, of course." He probably rolled his eyes.
"Haven't the police already made a clear intention to help them fight for it?" Zach felt helpless when he said this.
"Obviously he doesn't think it's enough." Didi remained impatient. She couldn't push vampires and alien souls. She did what she could and stuck behind Zach to urge her, and honestly satisfied the vampire's thirst for knowledge so that this guy could Leave quickly, "Even if there is compensation, it will be given to everyone. He will not get much if he gets a share, so he can obviously get more."
"So it's greed?"
"Otherwise it's selfless?!" Didi was reaching her limit.
"It sounds like your husband, Nick, is a stupid and impulsive guy." Impulsiveness can't be explained. Being stupid means that at least it's not illegal to protest for compensation. Less is less. It's all for nothing anyway, but kidnapping
"Didi's husband! He'll be his ex-husband soon!" Mirror Man Didi retorted probably instinctively, "It's none of my business if Didi is unkind to others!"
Yes, what does it have to do with her, a wandering soul who could die at any time, a guy who became a Mirror Man by luck or misfortune
Zach, who was already standing by the door, looked back at Didi for the last time. His slightly curved eyes were obviously expressing something, "No need to send it off. I wish you a happy day. Goodbye."
"Goodbye!" Didi closed the door. (.)
