Lunch had just ended, and Louise, who had just come back for a while, sorted out the information and was about to go out again. I went to the Church of the Holy Son with a confirmed guest list to arrange the funeral seats.
Zach had planned to accompany him, probably because he wanted to relieve his sense of irresponsibility for leaving all the work to Louise. However, when Wes came, Zach recognized that he, the boss of Grande Funeral Home, was becoming more and more unworthy of his reputation.
Wes changed out of his police uniform and put on civilian clothes, but he didn't go anywhere. After all, he was a police detective, so he couldn't be dressed like a farmer.
Zach looked at the slightly tight formal clothes on the other party. It really didn't look like the high-end inventory in James' wardrobe. James said he wanted to lend clothes to Wes, remember, but it looked more like an insurance salesman... "This is Jason’s clothes?”
"Uh, yes." Wes curled his lips, as if he didn't want to admit it.
"Is Jason still living at your place?" Zach asked innocently.
"Yeah." The monosyllabic answer was probably the best Wes could give, and he immediately changed the subject, "I'll thank you."
Zach was a little self-aware, so he followed the new topic and said, "Haha, no, I'm glad I can be helpful."
"Where's James?"
"I went to the North District to see his partner."
"Oh." Wes frowned, "I'm going to the hospital to see how Chris is recovering. Although Didi corrected me, there are still some doubts, such as the earrings found at the scene before. I still need to ask about them. ." After explaining the reason, he shook his head, "James is the one who sent Chris to the hospital. I think James should make him feel at ease and feel safe. It is easier for him to relax and make it easier for me to ask questions."
Zach raised his eyebrows and thought for a moment, yes, after all, Chris is a teenager who has just experienced a bad incident. The physical trauma may not be a big deal, but the psychological trauma is hard to say, "You can wait, wait for James Come back, Ms.
"Forget it, I'll go by myself." Weiss waved his hand, "I feel like Director Cologne doesn't want me to keep delaying James' time at this time." James still had a trumped-up case in his hand, and looking at The expression on Wes' curled lips showed that he obviously knew the truth.
Zach smiled and said, "How about I go with you? If Chris has any psychological trauma, I think I can be of some use." Zach pointed to his eyes. Don’t get me wrong, Zach’s intention is not to help the traumatized teenager heal his psychological wounds, but to help Wes, the detective, get answers to his doubts.
Wes thought for a moment and nodded. After greeting him, he handed a helmet to Zach, got on his mount, and said, "Come up."
Zach hesitated for a moment, then curled his lips and got on the motorcycle, "You should change your car, detective."
"I know. Hold on tight."
The motor roared and drove out of Grande's backyard. Go to the hospital in the South District.
Zach had selfish motives for taking the initiative to go this time. In the morning, Allen had just explained that he wanted to sell the Allen Funeral Home, and he stated without any hypocrisy that interests came first. Zach was unable to make the other party give up his interests, so he would show up more in front of his family and increase his sense of presence. When trading, play the favor card. I won’t talk about whether it’s useful, but it’s better than doing nothing, right
Zach used to come to the Memorial Hospital in the South District often, but he never walked through the main entrance. He always parked the old Grande truck outside the rear passage connected to the morgue, waiting for Benjamin to come out and load several corpses. I drove back and dug a few holes in the north garden of the cemetery and buried them.
Now, this job is Mill Madison's, and the follow-up is not to bury it, but to throw it into the incinerator.
Ignoring the information desk, Wes seemed to know his destination very well, and Zach followed behind, looking around curiously. Let's put it this way, this hospital is like a shrunken health station.
Because Zach has already made comparisons, our vampire doesn't like hospitals, but he has personally visited other hospitals in Barton many times, and now looking at his own hospital in the South District, it is dilapidated, but it is really, really simple. Just like the Southern District Police Department that seems to be making do.
This is probably the truth. The status of the South District in Barton is indeed not very good, and being called a countryman is worthy of the name.
"It's at the end of the corridor." Wes probably noticed Zach looking around absentmindedly and reminded him.
"Oh." Zach responded and shook his head silently in his mind. He began to realize that the city government so far has really not done anything worthy of praise for the people of the South District. Athera had no idea that he could win the South District. The district's votes might actually be worth something...
Zach looked towards the end of the corridor. Sitting on the bench beside the wall was a young boy, an acquaintance, Caesar. I was bored listening to music.
Zach pulled Wes, who was walking in front, towards Caesar, who hadn't noticed him yet, took off his headphones, and said without knowing what expression to put on, "Caesar."
"Uh." Caesar turned his head and tugged at the corner of his mouth before pulling back his earphones, "Why do I meet you everywhere!"
"This is the South District, I should ask you this." Zach glanced at Wes and introduced helplessly, "Aisela's son. Anthony's..." curled his lips, "former stepson."
The news during this period has thoroughly revealed the short-lived marriage between Ethela and Anthony, so after Zack's reminder, Wes matched the young man in front of him with the photos in the news.
Caesar was probably not very interested in who Wes was. He glanced at the closed ward and said, "I'm here to visit with someone. What are you doing here?"
Zach pursed his lips and explained to Wes, "Caesar transferred to Reiput. According to his age..." Turning to Caesar, he asked, "Are you the same grade as Chris?" What our vampires can think of is that Caesar appears. The only reason why he is here is that he accompanied his school to visit his classmates.
"I'm one level below him." Caesar answered impatiently, but suddenly he smiled sinisterly and gestured to the ward with his head, "Why don't you go and see who is visiting him?"
Zach had a bad feeling. As a reminder, Alice said, "...Caesar ran away with Sissi halfway..."
Zach frowned, pushed Wes behind him again, walked to the ward, and looked inside through the window. Well.
Sissy is feeding apples to Chris. Hey, apples.
Zach pursed his lips and looked at Caesar, his eyes clearly asking for an explanation.
"Haha, don't look at me. I've only been in Reput for two days. I'm surprised to know that the Saint has such a good relationship with this guy from the South District."
Zach looked around to make sure no one in this simple hospital heard the word 'saint', "How good is the relationship?"
Caesar nervously raised two fingers, slowly brought them together, and then twisted them together like a cramp, "So good." It's obvious.
Zach shook his head speechlessly, unable to understand, and not wanting to worry about Caesar, he pushed the door of the ward and motioned for Wes to work.
"Detective!" Chris stood up from the bed with a piece of apple in his mouth. He seemed to be in a very good state of mind and showed no signs of psychological trauma at all. Emotionally, he was still very happy. He looked at Qian Qian with excitement, "Qian." Qian? ! Sissi’s name already looks like a nickname, but it can get even better! "This is one of the detectives who rescued me! Detective Weiss! Well, that's Mr. Grande." He looked at Zach and slowly smiled gratefully, "The police have already told me, Thanks for the clue, sir!”
Then, Chris's face actually turned red, "This is Sissy Yesil, my girlfriend."
Sissi stood up from the chair in front of the hospital bed, with a sincere and grateful look on her face, "Detective Weiss, Mr. Grand, thank you."
Zach almost instinctively looked at Sissi's feet. Unfortunately, she learned her lesson and landed.
Wes nodded, thought quickly, and said, "Well, girlfriend?" He glanced at Zach, who had a strange expression on his face, and corrected him with an adult's sense of morality, "Ripter's classmate, today are you on holiday?"
"We came out during lunch break." Sissi actually held Chris' hand, "I should have come earlier, but unfortunately my leave request was not approved."
"The school will not allow you to skip class." Zach curled his lips, and for some unknown reason, he reached out and pushed the young couple's hands away, pushing Sissi out of the ward, "Let the detective do the important work. Work, visit is over.”
"I'll come back after school~" Sissi didn't resist Zach, she turned around and said this with unsuitable love, and was pushed out of the ward.
After closing the door, before Zach could speak, Caesar opened the door, "Is it over? Can you go back, Miss Saint?"
Zach waved, meaning to tell Caesar to go away, and said to Sissi, whose expression changed to gloomy the moment she stepped out of the ward, "Do you want to explain?"
Sissi turned back and glanced at Zach, without saying anything, and waved to Caesar, "Go to the car and wait for me first."
"Yes, yes." Caesar shook his head and left. It turned out that he was just a coachman.
Then Sissi faced Zach, rising slightly off the ground visible to the naked eye, "This is my private life, I don't need to explain it to you."
"Private life?" Zach smiled, "You have a private life? You have only been in Repte for a long time, and you have already found yourself a boyfriend, who is the son of the owner of Grande's competitor, Allen Funeral Home. "Zac laughed and shook his head, and emphasized again, "Private life? Sorry, Sissy, I find it hard to believe it."
Sissi moved and moved forward. She didn't know what method she used. She was hanging in the air, but she made the sound of footsteps. "Whether you believe it or not is up to you."
Zach followed, "Sissi, that Chris seems to be a good young man. I advise you not to play with others. No matter what ideas you are making, let go." Zach curled his lips, "And Caesar..."
She was interrupted, "Caesar came to me on his own, don't blame everything on me. Chris." She turned back and glared at Zach, "I didn't play with him! Take back your slander!"
Zach frowned when he saw Zhenzhen's anger. It was an accident, "Sissy? Don't tell you that it's sincere..." Falling in love? Zach really didn't want to say it.
Sissi, who had turned back, was probably gritting her teeth, her ears were twitching next to her raised hair, and she clenched her fists at her side gloomily, "I'm going to make that Nick's life worse than death!"
Zach couldn't continue to guess Sissi's thoughts with malicious intent. He took two steps faster and walked to Sissi's side. He turned his head and stared at Sissi's gloomy side face, "Sissi, what are you going to do? Don't. The prisoner is already in front of you. To the judiciary…”
"Not enough!" Sissi ignored Zach at all. "The Saint's boyfriend was kidnapped. I have never felt such shame! I want him to pay the price..."
"Wait a minute!" Zach held Sissi's shoulders, "Saint's boyfriend? Sissi, wait a minute, does Chris know you are a Saint?!"
Sissi, who was immersed in complete anger, closed her mouth tightly. Under the pressure of the vampire, she actually took a few steps forward normally. Finally, he turned his head, glanced at Zach, and took a deep breath, "He knows, but he is not very used to my saint side, so I restrain myself in front of him."
Zach opened his mouth, then shook his head, a little impatiently, "How did he know? Did Laura tell him?" Can you understand Zach's way of thinking? Sissi's inhuman attributes were exposed in Repto. It could only be revealed by someone who knew about it, and that must be Laura. Then, there are all kinds of other secrets that Laura knows... So Zach is worried at this time.
"No." Sissi calmed down a little and glanced at Zach, "You should give your sister's friends more confidence. This matter has nothing to do with Laura."
Zach pursed his lips, "Then give me some explanation that makes me confident."
Sissi paused, watching Zach hesitate for a while, and then shook his head, "Chris and I have known each other for a long time, after I settled in that sea-view villa."
"Before going to the Republic?" Zach was surprised.
Sissi didn't want to repeat it, "You should know these things." She gave Zach a look of disdain, "After settling in Barton, Thomas and I were safe and began to think of ways to get news from heaven."
Zach raised his eyebrows, remembering. In a disappearance a long time ago, in order to completely rule out the whereabouts of the missing person, in addition to confirming with the devil whether anyone had reported to hell, he also confirmed with Saint Sissi whether anyone had been sent to heaven.
Seeing Zach's expression, Sissi had already remembered the feeling, so she spoke a little faster, "You can't think that I would kill people to investigate heaven and then send them up." She shook her head, "The souls I sent up are all It was from Crowley, no, Crowley didn't have a container at that time, there were only hellhounds running around like mad dogs, or dead people that were stolen or snatched from the mouths of some lower creatures. Where are the most dead people? Funeral Home, Grande, hum, I can’t go there, the closest one is Allen.”
Zach began to curl his lips and looked at the saint again with a strange mood.
"Then when I was entangled with Cerberus, Chris saw me." Sissi's face also became strange. "He didn't even know what I was fighting. He probably read too many comics and treated me like a fool." The damsel in distress stepped forward to help..." Sissi stopped talking, adjusted her breathing, and her face became gloomy again, "He is so stupid that he can only be in front of me, Nick, I will let this guy taste the hell of this world..."
"Uh, wait, Sissy." Zach could only put aside the weird emotions in his heart, "The police will let Nick..."
"I haven't said enough!" Sissi was extremely determined, "Vampire, you'd better not stop me!" (.)
