Perfect timing—when you've poked a bear for good, but have every reason to leave it there.
When James's chest swelled, filled with emotions that were about to roar out, snap, Zach finally put down the bottle of wine that he couldn't stop peeing, stood up, and said, "Wait here!" with a look on his face that he had finally waited. The expectation, "I'll be right back!" went out.
When James reacted, Zach's voice was no longer in the office, and the only thing he was looking at was the wine glass filled with more than half a glass of bright red liquid. Well, just take a good look at this glass of 'wine' and experience what vampires call food. Zach will be back soon.
"Jimmy." Zach stood on the back porch and looked at the angel floating into the backyard. "You are finally back." The voice was not loud, just enough for the other party to hear. After all, there are ordinary people in Grande (Os D), although he pretended to be working hard... "And you also brought someone back." The Grand guy floated in without touching the ground, not only an angel, but also a saint, Sissi.
Sissi rolled her eyes and 'walked' past Zach. It looked like she was going to go directly to the office, but she suddenly stopped on the stairs and glanced up, "The mind reader from the Sabbat is here too? "James was naturally ignored by the Saints.
Zach answered with a shrug.
Sissi twitched her lips and went to the restaurant. This is the preview of 'Waiting for Talk'.
It doesn't matter to Zach. In fact, the more and more mixed people coming to Grande now, the better. When James' emotions showed signs of being uncontrollable, Zach would just pick one up and hang James out on the grounds that the host could not ignore the guests, perfectly avoiding the attack.
"Jimmy, how are you?" Zach returned his attention to the angel.
"I..." Jimmy was in a strange state, with a faint golden color flowing on his body, and the eyebrows on his face were raised high, as if fixed, just like the expression of a person who has not recovered after being frightened, "very good."
Zach didn't ask if the other person was okay, well, Zach didn't care about Jimmy's condition, Zach cared about the angel's hell experience. But Zach did not correct him, but looked at the low-level angel again. No, Zach frowned, "You have advanced."
"Well, yes." Jimmy tilted his head, still looking like he hadn't recovered, "I've advanced~" the ending sound rose. Not happy or anything, but self-doubting. Then, "I am an intermediate angel." He tilted his head in another direction and looked at Zach, "I can possess him."
Zach crossed his arms, looked at Jimmy, and frowned. Just like human promotion, when you get promoted, what you think of should be more salary, better working environment, and better benefits, right? Correspondingly, the advancement of angels should bring more power and more glory, such as gaining the ability to control the gates of heaven, being able to contribute to faith, and deliver the gospel on behalf of faith... and so on. Can you possess me? Well.
"Uh..." Jimmy looked at Zach and blinked, blankly, "Sorry, I feel weird."
"It's no use asking him." Sissi's voice came from the dining room, not only the inside, but also the kitchen. "If you want to know what happened, you might as well ask me."
Makes sense. Zach curled his lips and glanced at Jimmy one last time, then walked to the kitchen and asked directly, "What happened during the service?"
Sissi was looking through the snacks reserved on the desk. When she saw something that felt good, she threw it into her mouth.
Shh! For those of you who remember Grande's habit of setting aside treats for Great Danes, don't tell Sissy the truth.
"Do you want to hear the complicated version or the simple one?" Sissi raised her eyebrows, very satisfied with the look of the snack in her mouth, "This snack is really good, it's Republican style."
Yes, Alice is not here, so it is made of ink, so it is naturally a republican style.
Zach couldn't bear to answer. No, he couldn't bear to watch Sissi stuffing snacks into her mouth. He turned away and said, "Easy things first."
"Jessica opened the door to hell, and Jimmy went down." Sissi nodded with satisfaction while eating (Sissi's villa has no cooks. This has been mentioned a long time ago. Eating is the first thing Sissi does every time she comes here. Grande's only comfort), while kicking away the Great Dane who tried to jump on the table, he said, "Jessica opened the door to hell again, but Jimmy didn't come up. Jessica opened the door to hell again, and Jimmy didn't come up." Didn’t come up. Jessica opened the door to hell again... "
Zach felt that he had made the wrong choice, and interrupted with a slight cough, "Jessica controls the door, only five seconds." Remind Sissi to skip the repetitive things and hold on tight, five seconds is very fast, and you can't mess with it a few times.
"Well." Sissi raised a finger, waited for the food in her mouth to be swallowed, and then took it back, "So for the last time, Jessica went down by herself. Then." continued to choose the snacks she wanted, "When she came up, she brought Advanced Jimmy is coming up.”
Zach tried to confirm, "Are you talking about a lower angel who completed his advancement in hell?"
"Yes." Sissi's eyes twitched, but no matter what emotions she had in her heart at this moment, they were quickly suppressed and she continued to enjoy Grande's snacks, "By the way, Jessica also said Now, Jimmy, the original fallen angel, has also advanced and become an intermediate demon."
Zach pursed his lips and thought for a while about the two poles of religious differentiation. Just for a while, huh, Zach was asking for trouble when he thought about something that had nothing to do with vampires.
"What about something more complicated?" he continued.
Sissi shrugged, "Anyway, I have nothing to do, while I'm waiting for Jimmy." She glanced at Zach, "You don't expect us..." She should be talking about her and the angel Camille, "If you are interested in listening to the devil, Let’s pray.”
"I don't." Zach cooperated.
"So, we discussed how to use the glory that was discarded by the fallen angels when we get it in heaven. In the gap between Jessica repeatedly opening the door to hell, we reached an agreement. "
"Really?" Zach now truly regrets being delayed by the reporter Kate. It sounds like he missed something very interesting.
"You know, Jessica has completely mastered the special advanced technology studied by your Grande neighbor, Constantine, right?"
"I know." Zach curled his lips. He had lamented before that Constantine was leaving Barton this time. It was really, uh, how should I put it, touching.
"Jessica is willing to hand over this technology to us." Sissi actually stopped picking out snacks, and her face became solemn, "Do you know what this means? It means that with this technology, and those What the fallen angels left behind. Two steps, just two steps, and heaven can be restored to what it should be in a short period of time... "
Zach interrupted, with a very ignorant blow, "I guess this is not a one-sided contribution." Zach raised his head slightly and looked towards the east side of the ceiling - the direction of the office. He spoke slightly faster and began to move outside. , "What should Jessica ask for."
Before Sissi was about to answer, Zach raised his hand to stop her and walked from the kitchen to the dining room. "Let's talk later, I..." James' figure rushed past the door of the dining room.
Sissi tilted her head and continued picking out snacks indifferently. Zach continued to quicken his pace and caught up with James who had already rushed out of the back porch, "James! What are you going to do?"
James took action, got into the car without saying a word, didn't even fasten his seat belt, and started the car.
Zach didn't do that stupid trick of blocking the car. He just raised his hand and pressed on the roof of the car, making the roaring engine useless. He knocked on the car window, "James?"
James moved in the gear a few times like a cramp. Except for the dust rising more violently in Grand's backyard, his car didn't move at all. "Let go!"
Zach pursed his lips. He didn't feel that he was pushing James too hard, so he continued to knock on the car window, "Open."
James's answer was to continue stamping on the accelerator. The only effect was that he had Zach's handprint on the roof of his car.
Zach curled his lips and said angrily, "James, don't be so childish. Do you want a group of workers to watch me lift the roof of your car?"
As a very kind reminder, James was reminded to look at the construction site on the south side. Of course the workers at work are watching what’s going on here!
The car window opened, and he was about to say something—Ozzy must have heard the noise and appeared on the back porch. James' desire to speak turned into a twitching of the corners of his eyes, "Let go!!"
Zach glanced at the mind reader who was spreading his hands, pursed his lips, and let go, "You have to deal with the thing on the roof of the car..."
The engine, which had been fully charged, was finally released, throwing dust wildly behind the rear of the car, and sped out of the Grand.
Zach patted the dust on his body and returned to the back porch helplessly. This time, he obviously failed to grasp people's hearts, and the reason still maintained the posture of spreading his hands, "I can't tell the worse, the previous one" The lifelessness is still the anger now." It was probably Feng's sarcastic remark. The lifelessness was caused by him, and the anger was caused by Zach. Both states were quite bad.
Zach didn't even bother to speak, he just said, 'Don't compare me with you. '
Oz smiled awkwardly. He should have realized that after James left, Zach would settle the score with him. Using this method of suddenly and temporarily forcing Zach to cooperate was not worthy of Zach's continued good words to him. Good words.
"If you have something, it's best to finish talking quickly." Sissi still made a voice in the kitchen, "Personally, I don't care if the mind reader is listening to what I am going to say this time, but, I might It will take Zach a long time. So..." An unexpected digression, "Zach, why don't you train your dog? Why does it keep jumping up..."
Zach ignored it and looked at Oz, "Say. Or use a more convenient way."
"It's convenient. I can't stay here for too long." Oz was already rolling up his sleeves. Do you remember the convenient method? Oz used it once. Although Toledo is average in receiving information from blood and is not as good as Lesembra, who specializes in blood, he is a mind reader who is proficient in reading the voice of blood, so it is feasible.
The two of them entered the house and avoided the sight of the outside. Zach pinched Oz's arm. Before he opened his mouth, it was impossible not to notice the pinholes on Oz's arm - as if they were on Oz's glamorous face. The clothes cover up a little 'little flaw'. Zach curled his lips and said, "Oz, don't tell me you have any special hobbies."
After all, Barton has Smith, and everyone knows that there is more to "enjoyment" than just eating.
"If I want to get high, I just find a random junkie and sit next to him, and I can experience it without hurting myself."
Well, this is quite convenient. Reading minds is indeed a good ability.
Zach twitched the corners of his mouth and began to speak. Oz temporarily turned away and continued, "I need to contact the Sabbat. It's too troublesome to write a report, so just take out the information they need to know and mail it to them. It's convenient, just contact the Sabbat. Toledo learned it.”
Zach was quick, and when he put down Oz's arm, he raised his eyebrows at the same time. Oz's Blood contains a little too much information, too much!
Oz looked at the wound on his arm, together with the small needle puncture, all regenerated into new skin. He raised his eyebrows without knowing what he meant, "You are so gentle, I almost didn't feel anything."
The one that Zach picked up was wrinkled in the middle, "And I." He spoke very slowly, still receiving the information in the blood, "It feels like a lot, too much." His face became completely gloomy, and he looked at O This is malicious, "You should leave, immediately."
Oz did not immediately carry out the order that was already a warning. "I have no reason to lie to you. You must know why I temporarily changed the Sabbat's plan and gave the Sabbat the hatred of killing Georgina. I..." The key point is It is 'the one who changes the Sabbat will be taken over by the Sabbat'.
"Leave, now," Zach repeated.
Oz was unusually persistent, "Give me an answer to give me a basis. I don't want to do this kind of thing alone, an ally or an enemy. I, Kozier. You need to choose."
What is Oz talking about
Zach's movements will explain it all. He walked down the back corridor, heading towards the construction site on the south side.
"Uh, don't exclude me." This is to say that Zach has blocked the reading of the mind reader. Oz stood on the back porch and looked at Zach's back. He already knew the front of Zach, and his eyes were already red.
Austin and his workers, who were peeping at the gossip, began to work hard as the owner of Grande approached. This made our vampire's footsteps stop, and he stopped in the center of Grande's backyard, his red eyes facing his feet, "Ryan, come out."
"What!" Ryan came out, looking carefree.
"Bumi killed Georgina, Eve covered up the scene, and Louise used the Charming Eyes on Austin and the others. Yes or no."
"Wha, what..."
"Yes, or, no."
"Uh! I don't want to get caught up in you vampires..."
"So yes, yes." The redness in Zach's eyes disappeared, he stood there for a while, turned around, and walked back to Oz, "I wish you good luck, ally." The choice has been made.
The relieved Oz put a smile on his face, stopped talking, walked down the back porch of Grande with a smile, and was about to leave.
Back in the kitchen, Sissi was still holding the snacks that didn't belong to her, looking arrogant like a girl, "Oh, I can't understand what happened, but it seems interesting. This mind reader is very restless. look like."
"Yeah." Zach said expressionlessly, "Restless."
Recall that this is not the first time that Ozzie Cozier has been described as restless. The first time was when he went to harass Emilia and was curious about the relationship between humans and aliens in Barton society.
Zach doesn't want to talk about this now, it involves too much, so, "Back to our topic, what did you give Jessica to make her willing to hand over this advanced technology that is almost 'cheating'."
"When heaven closes the door to hell, keep her five seconds." As if it was not an important thing at all, Sissi said it easily, then waved her hand, "Okay, that's the end of the topic. Tell me. Just what you really want to say."
Zach is still trying to accept that the fallen angel will always control the five-second door to hell. "No, I need to think about it..." Does this mean that even if the demons of the Federation are pushed back to hell, Jessica will still Will it be in Barton? Zach is sorting out the logic...
"There's nothing to think about. Your first reaction must be right. Now." Sissi finally gave up the snacks and looked at Zach seriously, "Think about what I'm going to say next. I met Pa last night. Pa midnight, at Allen Funeral Home."
Our vampire has a headache. Too much, too many things, in his mind. (.)
