After returning to Grande, Louise went directly into the basement and locked Zach out.
"No need for Mo." Zach stopped Mo who was about to go in to accompany Louise, "It won't be effective if you go to accompany her."
Mo frowned, not sure what Zach meant. Louise has been having emotional problems these days, and she is obviously avoiding Zach. The only person accompanying Louise is Mo, but it hasn't gotten better. Mo didn't know whether Zach was saying that her comfort was of no use.
Zach's eyes were a little weird, "Sorry, I didn't mean that. But, I think I know the reason why Louise is in a bad mood. Your company will have the opposite effect."
Following Zach's request, Dora and Bumi did not follow directly back to Grande, but went to the southeast to throw away the 'stolen' loot. Therefore, Zach didn't feel burdened when he explained, "Dora and Bumi just killed a republican ghost."
Mo, who had been following Zach, stood there with his head lowered.
"Hey." Zach had to comfort him, "You know that this kind of thing will happen sooner or later, and Louise also understands. If it can make you feel better, Dora Bumi and the others have been waiting all night. If that ghost can... Things might have been different if there were interracial exchanges in the Federation, but she didn't. The only thing she expressed was 'no' before death, and she still used the language of the Republic. Only Louise understood it... "
Does this make you feel better? Listening to Zach's perspective, yes. —
"Even if she is not in our hands, she cannot survive in the Federation without being able to communicate with alien races in the Federation."
Mo raised his head, his face not good, "You just misinterpreted the facts for your actions afterwards. Regardless of whether we can communicate or not, you will not let her survive here. You told me clearly yesterday."
Zach nodded, "I just mentioned a factor to help everyone understand the facts. No matter how you understand it, this is a contact between different species bred on two lands on one land. This cannot be a peaceful contact, you Haven’t you seen the news? Even if the international trade agreement was passed before, some people in the Federation considered it the beginning of the invasion of foreign capital, labor, and even culture. Even if communication can be achieved, there will be various other reasons that lead to hostility. We are aliens and there is no human being. It’s such a complex political interest system, so let’s keep things simple and don’t touch it. You don’t come, we don’t go, there is an entire ocean separating us, let’s keep it this way.”
"Now you are just making random excuses." Mo rarely made a bad face to Zach, "In order to defend your actions, you have erased the reason for the existence of the Federation. You and the foreign races in India..."
"We fought a war, and then we created the Federation." Zach said indifferently, "Are you suggesting that we should launch a war against the Republic, and then have to stop each other's losses and build peace together?"
Mo was choked, "I can't speak to you."
Zach did not feel proud of victory and shook his head, "I know what you are thinking. You think this is unfair. The secret alliance is in the Republic. It was an unabashed invasion, but tell me, what is their situation like?"
Mo pursed his lips and said, "Not good. The Republicans regard all aliens as monsters and things that need to be eliminated. They have no future for development. I recently heard Dora tell some of your past history, and I am even more sure that your Vatican Zhuo, even if our alien races in the Republic ignore these invaders, they will perish sooner or later."
Zach shrugged, "So it's the same, people should stay where they belong..."
"Then I shouldn't be in Grande." Mo frowned tightly.
"You're here to visit your relatives." Zach raised his eyebrows and glanced at the Great Dane King, who had already twisted his butt and turned around. "You have to thank your 'relatives' who came here to live here when the Federation was born. You It’s a special case.”
Mo was silent for a while, then curled his lips, "Okay, I understand. Everything you say makes sense." He shook his head, seemingly giving up on arguing with Zach, and changed the topic without warning. Notice, "Mr. Traveler called me. He said that my identity is starting to get better. He will come and talk to us soon."
"Steve?" Zach curled his lips. As soon as he said that Mo was a special case when he was hungry, the process of becoming a federal citizen for a special case from this province took a step forward. No wonder Mo gave up so simply, "When?"
"Right away. Just after you sent Louise off, the call came."
Zach nodded, "Have you decided what identity you want to be?"
Remember, what Steve Walker said at the time was that if Mo was willing to wait and not have to make do with the real identity that already existed in other places, Steve could use the undeveloped federal and republican identity information exchange channels to create a new identity for Mo. identity.
"Think about it, I'm twenty-eight years old, a chef, best at making desserts, loves animals, TV series, and doesn't like outdoor sports..."
Zach curled his lips, a little speechless, "Don't be so, uh, personal details, you should pay more attention to identity, such as family, parents and so on." Zach suggested based on experience.
"Oh!" Mo looked like he was completely reminded.
Zach waved his hand, hoping that Steve would be more reliable, and went to the second floor, because the phone rang.
When he answered the phone, a customer's car drove into the backyard. Steve came down with his briefcase, smiled at Zach who greeted him by the window on the second floor, and walked over.
"It's me." Madison was on the other side of the receiver, "Uh, let's work first." It seemed like there was more than one thing I wanted to say to Zach, "I just took over a funeral order, and as you requested, I told you all the details of the funeral now. "Specifications." Single cremation, traditional burial, plus Grande's new service item that has just appeared recently, cremation plus traditional ceremony, "The customer intends to have a traditional ceremony."
"Well, then you can send the information." Zach looked out the window at the construction site on the west side, mainly to see the construction team in Austin. When they were still at the Hermann factory, Louise did say She erased a memory of these people because she was afraid of trouble, right? So Zach looked at her with pride at this time. Louise has a very good command of the Charming Eyes. She deserves to be Zach's personal successor. These days There is nothing unusual about Austin - happy to work, happy to be lazy, happy to cheat Grande money on certain projects... Of course Zach knows all this, but there is really no need to pay attention to it.
"I don't want to go there." The other side of the receiver was unexpectedly direct, "You ask Matthew to get it."
Zach's pride was interrupted and he pursed his lips, "Why?"
"Brian..." I haven't forgotten this guy with dual personality caused by the failure of Charming Eyes. He needs to be self-reliant and works in a mill. "I haven't been feeling well these days. I want to go see him."
Zach will never forget it, because every time he goes to the mill, he can see this vampire-repelling guy avoiding Zach without any secret. Zach frowned and sat down at the desk. He motioned to Mo and Steve who came in to start, "What's wrong with him?" After all, the other party had lived in Grande for such a long time and had experienced the Bishop family together. We still need to be concerned about the drastic changes.
"Humph, he lives in the southeast, why do you think he is?"
Zach sighed, "What did 'General' do again?"
Steve raised his eyebrows, obviously caring about his former gray professional colleagues. By the way, the 'General' no longer attends the ** bar gatherings in the gray professional circle. This is a natural change. Do you still remember the nature of the 'General''s foothold in the gray professional circle - taking advantage of Barton society's indifference to the southeast and providing unconditional scapegoating
Although the southeast is now cleansed, the police's indifference to the southeast has not changed due to some new reasons. At least the Aix gang, which is obviously the main cause of the chaos in the southeast, has transformed into a clean security guard. The company and the police didn't say a word at all, right
Well, let's not go too far. The southeast is still in the same embarrassing situation, but the 'General' can no longer continue to provide the gray professionals with heads to take the blame. The 'General' gang has ceased to exist in the purges, and the 'General' has no place in the gray professional circle.
"Uh, again." Madison showed a little impatience and immediately retracted it. He is a really good employee now, for the knowledge of alien races. So I won't lose my temper with Zach casually, "You know what the 'General' is doing in the southeast, right?"
"I don't know. I'm not a fool. I can see some clues." Zach picked up the microphone and was just pretending. He gave Steve an apologetic look, "How about you go to the recreation room first? What?"
Steve nodded knowingly. He knew some things about the 'General' and Zach, and he also speculated that they were no longer in the human category. But Nuo didn't explicitly mention 'General' at the party, and Zach certainly didn't. Therefore, there are many people in the professional circle who are curious about the current situation of 'General', but everyone has a professional perspective and understands it. Unless 'General' joins the professional circle again, I don't know, that is the best situation.
Steve consciously gestured to Mo and left the office.
There was silence on the other side of the receiver for a while, "If you can, you'd better ask 'General' to pay more attention. If Brian can notice something unusual, other ordinary people can also notice it."
Zach recalled the last unpleasant experience he had with the General, "What did Leon say? If Mason and Blitz felt it was still controllable, I probably wouldn't have said anything."
"Then you don't need to say it." Madison was indeed a little emotional, "I won't talk about it anymore. I have other things. Do you know, uh, Riley, she..."
"Engaged." Madison trailed off in a hoarse voice, and Zach guessed what the other person meant, so he directly completed it.
"Uh, how did you know?!"
It's troublesome to explain, "She announced it at Quinn's private party." I won't explain the twists and turns. The relationship between Quinn and Grande can already show that the news will definitely reach Zach. .
"Uh. So what are you going to do? I mean, she and Bishop..."
Zach is actually a little curious about what Madison is going to say. For example, if Madison says "not worthy," Zach will ask, "Then what do you think Mei Yao is matched with?" to remind Madison to respect himself and cherish himself. s life.
But Madison's tail sound started to drag out again. Until Madison dragged out his breath and the sound of Madison's hard breathing began to come from the receiver, Zach couldn't wait for the follow-up.
"I'm not going to do anything." Zach replied, "She needs Bishop's financial resources (the charming Riley owes List money), and I need to personally control Bishop." No one cares about what Bishop wants. "I think this is good."
There was silence on the other side of the receiver for a while, "Okay, whatever you think is good." Things changed again, "Leon said, the hellhounds have been running to Port Marsa frequently these days." After a pause, "You Did you already know it again?”
There was a smile on Zach's face, "I know. I also know that the reason why they went has nothing to do with the soul of the Federation." Zach said another cruel thing with a smile, but he didn't tell the whole story, "You don't have to worry about it. There are no reports or news mentioning this kind of thing, so you should act like an ordinary federal citizen and pretend you don’t know about this kind of thing.”
"Detective Lance and the others..."
"They are federal police detectives, serving the federal people." Zach ended the topic, "Do you have anything else to say?"
But Madison didn't seem ready to give up, "What about this matter..."
"Mo, she is currently discussing her new identity with Steve Walker, the identity merchant, who just came over." Zach listened casually to the entertainment room, and the progress was going well. Steve is indeed reliable and is ready. The template of identity is now being added with overly rich details, and a Federation man is being born.
Continue talking to the receiver, "Madison, don't pay attention to this kind of thing. You are just a part-time writer for a fantasy magazine, not a current affairs reporter. You don't want to know this kind of thing."
As Zach kept cutting off Madison's words, it was impossible for us to know what happened in Port Massa. However, just make sure. There are not only imported porcelain and ghosts hiding in Marsa Port, but also things that will attract hellhounds.
I remember I mentioned that Zach, Louise, and Nofil would go to Port Massa, and they had something to do with Mayor Anthony, right? Put it here first.
"I don't want to write West Side Story this week." Madison was silent for a while. "I have written about Bishop many times. If I write it again, everyone will guess which family I am reflecting. I need new stories. theme!"
The reason, eh. In order not to write about Riley and Bishop, he actually came up with such a reason. Madison was really hopeless.
Zach smiled and shook his head, "Madison, I'm sorry to tell you that "Urban Legends" is not a best-selling magazine, and no one cares about it. And, I am sure that neither Riley nor Bishop care."
"It's always such a pleasure talking to you." Madison choked out, "Goodbye." Then hung up. (.)
