"I have to insist on one thing." Zach's tone did not mean any insistence at all, and he leaned back in his chair completely giving up, "The alliance must be carried out in Grande."
Sibella tilted her head indifferently, "Whatever." No matter how you look at it, Sibella was not positive. I really don't understand how the two people talked in such an atmosphere, "We can do it now, here, right in front of you. Make an alliance.”
Zach knocked on the table listlessly, not even bothering to reach out to ring the bell. When Danny pushed the door open, he said, "Call Dora and the others to come up."
Danny nodded and went down.
The office was quiet for a while, "We still need to talk about the case three years ago, the one Papa did at midnight..." As the owner, Zach had the obligation to not make the atmosphere too tense. But the effect was not as expected -
"If I want to talk about my matters, I will talk to my allies. You can listen to their reports when the time comes." Sibera didn't want to lose face.
Forget it, Zach gave up completely. If this wasn't his office, he would have left by now.
Dora came up, but Bumi didn't come. It was good that Bumi was not good at this kind of thing, so coming would only cause trouble. Dora sat down next to Sibella and said, not quite respectfully, "Wizard."
"Nofele." Sibella responded.
"You all know what you are going to do." Zach shook his hand, "Let's start..." The phone rang. Zach glanced at it and finished, "Just pretend I don't exist and start." He answered the phone.
Before starting the phone call, Sibera started to make her first sentence towards the alliance, and slapped Zach straight from the beginning, "There are a lot of Novelles. In the entire Barton, only we, the wizards, have the experience to settle a large number of outsiders. , don’t look at the living area being expanded on the west side of Grand. Those are not prepared by Zach for you, but for his human employees of Grand…”
Although Sibella had that attitude, she came prepared.
Oh, the phone.
There was silence on the other side of the receiver for a while, then the voice of the fallen angel Jessica asked, "Did I hear Sibella's voice?"
Zach didn't look at Sibera and responded directly, "Yes. Did you find anything over there?" He reminded the fallen angel to pay attention.
"It depends on how you interpret the discovery." Jessica seemed to be deliberately trying to whet Zach's appetite. "I brought up the interrogation of those republican souls. I interrogated. Despite the language barrier and belief barrier, I also overcame the difficulties. , got some interesting stuff.”
Zach was waiting, but the other end of the receiver deliberately stopped here and did not continue.
Zach curled his lips and probably guessed the intention of the fallen angel. Information is for exchange. It is wrong to ask the other party. Then, "Maya took a look and saw that except for people who died normally, she had never seen them before. Death. A sudden death that she didn’t know the cause of and couldn’t see the process of.”
When Zach said this, Sibella paused her words and glanced at Zach. The look in her eyes was not a reproach of 'I am negotiating, please don't influence me by being around', but a simple curiosity.
Of course, Zach was too lazy to pay attention to Sibella now. He held the receiver and it was Jessica's turn to speak. It was a question, "What do you mean? The banshee can't see the process of death?"
"Don't ask me." Zach shook his head, "I don't know. Even now, Maya is still on the phone with Yuehua and the others, trying to understand."
Dora was already raising her little hand and waving it in front of the always distracted Sibella, reminding the wizard to pay attention.
Jessica on the other side of the receiver was silent for a while, "Let me put it bluntly. I obtained something after interrogating the souls of those republicans, but it should not be helpful at all to this matter."
Zach pursed his lips, so he was embarrassed to speak first. He twitched his lips and said, "Let's talk about it."
"Did you notice my choice of words? I'm talking about the soul of the republic." Jessica was emphasizing something that was indeed ignored by Zach. There was no way, this was a phone, Toledo's communication skills of observing everything now Just listen to the sound, and Zach actually didn't pay much attention, so he ignored one or two points, which is understandable, "It's not an undead spirit."
"What do you mean?" Zach asked with a slightly raised eyebrow.
"These souls did not become the undead souls in hell." Jessica's tone had an inappropriate smile, feeling a little proud of the rare opportunity to make Zach question, "They, well, were forced by hell dogs. A soul that is cut off from the world, a pure soul." Jessica's voice paused, "At the moment we are talking, a soul has just passed away naturally."
Zach was quiet for a long time, and for the time being there was only dialogue about alliance negotiations in the office—
Dora: "Let us live in Paisin, which has a lot of Indian real estate? Wizard, you must have a black hole in your mind."
Don't worry about Dora's attitude. Sibera wants to bypass Zach to make this alliance, so she should be prepared to be humiliated by a vampire who has just arrived in Barton and has never had any communication with her before. If it were Zach, of course he wouldn't say it so bluntly.
Sibella: "This black hole has been opened by your Toledo friend, Zach. You can ask yourself whether his activities in Paisying have been hindered in any way. Moreover, I need to remind you that Barton's Does the mayor have Indian ancestry (Anthony has Indian ancestry)? If you don’t have a proper and legitimate identity in Barton, sooner or later, you will be in trouble. Come to Paisiying, I can solve this problem."
…
Back to the phone.
Zach's silence also ended, "Is this a special case or..." Zach waved his hand and changed the question, "Didn't you find this situation when you went to the Republic?" This is questioning the soul of the Republic. He was not affected by the Holy Lord's faith. Why was this strange thing only discovered now
"How do I find out?" Jessica asked, "When I went to Republic, I left the five-second Gate of Hell in Barton." Mike said, "The soul of Republic will be taken away, and it won't be by me. I It is already very difficult to communicate with Heaven among various forces why they are in the Republic. I have never experienced asking Heaven if it has discovered the souls of the Republic people."
"You want to say, do you think Camille, the angel over there from the saints, knows about the republican souls?" Camille is from the republic, remember. In addition, when Jessica said that the republican souls were disappearing, , Zach understood that there was nothing discovered by the Fallen Angels, and as time went by, the soul of the Republic gradually disappeared, and the chance of discovering any information became smaller and smaller. This is understandable.
So what Zach is thinking about now is to help Crowley retain those souls that will not become undead in hell, but will just disappear one by one, so as to leave some hope for obtaining information later - Maya is in the exhibition hall and Yuehua. The long exchange of phone calls can already prove that the road to mourning the banshee is blocked, right
"Camille, of course, he may know something. I have contacted him, but I don't have any hope. During the Republic, I discovered that the situation of the Holy Lord Faith was not good. The power of heaven is very weak. Now I know why they are so weak." The fallen angel wanted to express that it was because the souls of the republicans did not integrate into the soul belonging to the Holy Lord's faith, so they were weak. "I personally think that Mo is more helpful in your place." Jessica This was obviously a request, she wanted Mo.
Zach frowned, "I don't want to let Mo Shan get involved in this matter."
"I can understand what you're thinking." The person on the receiver took a step back, "But you should give her a little more faith, right?" Faith? The fallen angel was telling the vampire about his belief, uh, "She was the 'ghost' who seized the opportunity to leave the Republic and come to Barton, right. If she still has memories of the Republic, she shouldn't be here."
Zach pursed his lips and fell silent again. Okay, just listen to the negotiation.
Sibella: "Paisying is close to the southeast. Southeast, I don't need to say more, unless you like the sheep in the southern area."
Dora actually gave Zach an apologetic look at this time. I won’t tell you the meaning, but everyone should understand it.
Sibella continued: "And Paisine is the center of the entire Barton, with Back Bay and Port Massa in the north, West End in the west, Lister in the southeast, Bech, the city government, the police station..." Bech's history, Barton's original The development zone where Barton’s urban foundation is located. “If Novel is really as legendary as it is, a shadow of human civilization, I really can’t think of a more suitable place for you than Paisying. Stay in South What can you do in the district, peek into the farmers’ spare time lives?”
Sibella continued: "Rimmer himself is a magician, there are saints in Gangro, and even your friend from Toledo, Zach, has a banshee. Sorry, slip of the tongue, there is a banshee." Sister Yao. What do you Nophele have? There is a Mokawi. Huh. Congratulations. Since your Toledo friend is about to start a new era with a wizard, you Nophele, there is no need to continue to be single. Now, I, the wizards, will be waiting in Paisying."
…
Sibella has completely mastered the rhythm.
Zach's silence came to an end again, and he said to the receiver, "Okay, let's talk to Mo, the decision is up to her." Zach was just comforting himself. He had previously expressed his gratitude to Mo, who was going to Port Massa together. He agreed without hesitation, even if it was just to take a look at the familiar faces of those republican souls. Is that so, let’s see.
"Then move quickly." Jessica urged directly, "Every minute, these souls are disappearing." Hang up.
Zach put down the phone, made a signal that was ignored, left the office temporarily, and found Mo in the entertainment room who was watching a soap opera.
"Do you know that the souls of republicans cannot become undead in hell? Even if they are forcibly taken to hell by hell dogs." Zach started like this.
Mo was staring at the screen with a nervous look on his face, as if he didn't notice Zach's compliment at all. Then, the picture on the TV flickered, and Anthony's face occupied the screen, and he started his campaign advertisement.
Mo's eyes moved as he stared at the screen, then turned to Zach with his whole face tilted, pointing at the screen, "You know, I really don't have any objections to your mayor friend, not at all! But!" Her face Started to twitch, "Every! Every! One! Time! Crucial! Moment!"
It was almost a continuation of the episode that was interrupted the last time he watched the show, and Mo's emotions seemed to have advanced to another level, becoming unbearable. But this time, Zach was not in the mood to help Mo solve the problem, "The fallen angel just told me that the souls of the republicans are disappearing."
Mo waved his hand, "I told you, the republicans do not believe in anything that is not what they think. After the end of human life, it will naturally end."
It made Zach unexpectedly calm. Perhaps the fallen angel was right to give Zach some faith. What Mo still missed a little was the alien races of the Republic, not the people who forced them to have no place to stay. "What method do you have?" , can we keep these lost souls?"
"Why?" Anyway, with his eyes closed, Mo could now remember every frame in the campaign advertisement, so he simply turned his head and looked at Zach.
"The case of missing illegal workers in Marsa Port."
"I thought you did this on purpose, to confirm that this was Fisher's secret business." Mo raised his eyebrows and listened to her words, as if he still didn't know what Zach and the others had discovered last night. That's right, after Zach clearly refused her to join the Marsa Port operation, she consciously wanted to avoid the matter.
Zach was relieved and helpless. Now that Mo had actively avoided it, he wanted to pull Mo over again, eh. Things in the world are unpredictable, "Last night, we did nothing, but a boat of people disappeared. They were at sea and disappeared before entering the port." When Mo raised his eyebrows, Zach knew that his statement had attracted Mo's attention, " I asked some insiders on the ship." The investigation performed for Fisher last night in Marsa Port was still a bit fruitful. "When they delivered food for the last time, people were still there, but during the inspection before entering the port, people were not there. No more."
"Uh, escaped off the ship?"
"Where to escape? In the sea?" Zach shook his head, "There are no clues or signs. Now we can only find clues from the people who died before and were missing by us. Just now Maya saw a few of the bodies we hid. The corpse, found a death she didn’t understand, and was discussing with Yuehua.”
Mo subconsciously glanced sideways, looking down, and there was an emotion like this in his eyes. Probably because she just understood why Maya kept calling, she continued to look at Zach, frowning, and almost knew what Zach wanted to say, "On the devil's side, there are people who can't get information because of the disappearance of their souls, so I want to Are you asking me for help?"
Zach nodded, "I won't force you. After all, I said, I don't want to be involved in this matter. You look..." Still not sure, "I don't want to care about the appearance of those people."
Mo curled his lips and said, "I really don't want to. What I said at the beginning was that I wanted to meet the aliens of the Republic, not the people. The reason why I have no nostalgia and 'gonggong' (Golden the Great Dane) is here is because of those people. "Mo shook her head and stood up, "Okay, I'll go take a look. If you can help, please help." She raised her eyebrows, "If I understand correctly, what the devil needs is actually the soul of the soul. Mark, right? The devil doesn’t need the soul to live and exist, all it needs is that the soul mark doesn’t disappear, right?”
Zach nodded, don't listen to what Jessica said just now and think it was an interrogation, and really think it was a one-on-one interview, or more malicious, torture or something. It is not necessary or possible because of the language barrier.
Don't forget that James was raped by the fallen angel. All the demons need is to use their special method to traverse the soul mark to obtain information. The disappearance of the soul is just the final result of the disappearance of all the soul marks of a soul, which means that the demons are now unable to retain the soul marks containing information.
Finally, the most important explanation before leaving -
"Record it for me, I don't want to miss any of the plot, Sofia just found out that Renando is her biological brother..." (.)
