Eric did not resign. Haha, how could he resign from his sacred job as the spokesperson of the Holy Lord? Do not make jokes. But he did need some time to figure some things out. So when all the clergy, or shall we say demons, at Mary's Church were circling Eric, Zach gave Eric a piece of advice -
"Why don't you go home, rest for a few days, and think about what you want. To be honest, I've always been surprised that you would befriend Constantine at your father's funeral. Why don't you go back and think about it. , the reason why Constantine attracts you, let's face the reality, your father protects you very well, even if you say you hate these things now, but you yourself have walked into these - faith, alien race... think clearly Why, then, let’s look at the future.”
This is very sound advice and very realistic. Couldn't it be that Eric himself had a very pleasant chat with Constantine after his father's funeral, which ultimately led him to this path. Eric is an adult. Without his father's deliberate protection, he needs to figure out what he wants for his own life.
Eric agreed, "Tell Mike I'm sorry." and went home.
Zach stopped following, and happened to see something worth staying at Mary's Church - the ghoul Harrison was here.
Behind Mary's Church, the old correctional home that used to house homeless people, Harrison was discussing something with, oh, someone Zach knew, Sister Teresa.
Zach did not join immediately, but sat next to Jessica who was smiling and watching, the real Jessica. Fallen Angel was in hell, and Jessica also returned to the familiar outfit to Zach, a sweater, of course, clean.
"You're smiling." Zach greeted with a smile, not listening to what Harrison was discussing.
"I am~" Jessica looked at Harrison with a happy look on her face.
"Share it?" Zach suggested with a smile.
"Harrison is discussing with Teresa about taking in homeless people." Jessica should be really happy, "Winter is too difficult for those people..." She lowered her gaze and smiled at Zach, "I know best "The fact is, wasn't Jessica once just a homeless crazy woman from Ixton?" Harrison has persuaded the Quinn Group to open shelters and rescue people in need, and is now working with Teresa Let’s talk, let the church open to the public, and prepare for winter affairs.”
First of all, I don’t know if you still remember that when Jessica first met her $100 husband (Zach) in her new identity, she was cooking dinner for the homeless people there in Ixton. Secondly, during a continuous rainy day, Zach came here and heard fallen angels complain about homeless people flocking here to take shelter from the rain. At that time, there was no shelter for Harrison to return to because of the interests of the Quinn Group. Open the door to those homeless people.
Therefore, what is happening now is indeed a good thing and worth being happy about.
Zach smiled and nodded, "Sounds good." He glanced at Harrison, "It seems that Harrison's return to the shelter has put things on track. As for you." Zach looked back at Jay Sika, "How are you doing lately?"
"Pretty good~" Jessica smiled, "A bit boring." She tilted her head and said, "I don't know when the fallen angel will come back, so I can't run around~" It was just a joking tone, not really complaining, "I'm here I saw you and that one, um, Eric? Is that your name?" Changed the subject.
"Yeah." Zach nodded. If he could listen to this 'listening sinner' (Jessica could hear people's sins, and because she couldn't hear the sins in Zach's heart, she decided that Zach was a good person and liked Zach. ), it’s not bad to talk about Eric, “What do you think of him?”
"He..." Jessica raised her eyebrows and shook her head with a smile, "It's a broken radio. I can hear a bunch of messy signals, but no clear sound."
"Is this good?" Zach raised his eyebrows and asked, "Or is it bad?"
"Haha, this means that he is a blank slate. He is still confused and doesn't know what kind of person he will become yet~" Jessica smiled, "Maybe there will be a beautiful harmony when the noise disappears, or maybe Yes, well, you know~"
Considering that Eric is indeed a rookie who has just left his father's protection and officially entered the real society, this is how he describes his image.
But Zach suddenly became curious, "What do I sound like?" There was a little expectation, hoping that it would be something better.
"Symphony." He answered without any hesitation, "It's like a grand performance, with countless instruments playing at the same time, but every tone is in the right place~"
Zach raised his eyebrows, not quite what he expected - he thought it would be some kind of pleasant minor solo, you know, not too big, not very eye-catching, just melodious and long over there, but To monopolize the stage. Well, the symphony is not bad either.
Zach pointed in the direction of Harrison, "Where's him?"
"Well, it's like a tambourine." Jessica raised her hand and started shaking it, imitating the appearance of a tambourine. "It's the kind of round one with metal pieces on the side..."
Zach smiled and nodded, "I know what a tambourine is."
"Oh." Jessica also smiled, "It's brisk, rhythmic, and makes people want to move along. It's a pretty good sound."
This game is quite fun, Zach continued to point to Sister Teresa, "Where is she?"
That's a nun. Although there is a demon living inside, it is still a demon from a fallen angel, so it shouldn't be much different, like a children's choir? Zach guessed.
Jessica tilted her head, was quiet for a while, probably thinking, and then said, "An electronic keyboard with the treble key stuck."
Zach is really not suitable for playing this game, "Uh... describe it."
"There is a very harsh, continuous, and untimely high-pitched sound that is always there. No matter what sound appears, it will be destroyed by this high-pitched sound." Jessica frowned, "Most people in the church, well, devils, are like this , sometimes these broken trebles will be wonderfully combined into a pretty good chorus, but most of the time, it's just like this. In fact, if you get used to it, it doesn't matter." Jessica still smiled, "Ignore the broken one. The treble is very good to listen to the content inside.”
Just like now, Teresa is discussing with Harrison the issue of resource allocation for homeless relief. While requesting basic medicine resources, Teresa asked Harrison to allocate emergency beds in the shelter. If there are homeless people in the church who need emergency treatment, they can be immediately transferred to the shelter and use Quinn Group's medical resources for assistance.
Well, Zach accepted this answer, and the discussion on Harrison's side was almost over. He nodded to Jessica and walked towards Harrison who was finishing.
"Okay, but I can't make too many guarantees." Although the deal was good, Harrison still looked a little embarrassed, "I can help you get basic medicines, but emergency beds, uh... I'll give it a try, Quinn The people in the group are no longer satisfied with me setting aside part of the space to accommodate non-veterans. Well, when I returned to the shelter, I kept making demands, and they started to hate me... "
"You do your best." Teresa saluted. Seeing Zach coming over, she didn't seem to want to meet Zach, so she nodded and walked away. It is understandable that even if Teresa wants to communicate with a vampire, she wants to communicate with Louise, not Zach. It should be understandable from the fact that Teresa had left the diary with Constantine instead of going directly to Grande to give it to Louise, and what she had said to Zach about faith (there is no atonement for demons returning to heaven) The demonic nun didn't have much to say to Zach.
"If you need it, I can talk to Mrs. Quinn to make things easier." Zach didn't leave Teresa alone and made a proposal to Eric.
"No, no need." Harrison scratched his head, a little ashamed, "I have already used your face, otherwise they would let me open the shelter like this."
"Oh~" Zach smiled and didn't mind, "As long as you do something good." It's not a good thing in a simple sense, it's something good for Anthony and the city. "I don't mind if you abuse me." face."
"Okay." Harrison raised his eyebrows and agreed readily. In a good mood, he started to touch his pocket, took out a notebook, and started ticking off the list on the note in front of Zach, "Mary Church, it's done. Everything is done here in the North District. Well, next, West End’s…”
It seems that Harrison is also having a busy day today, soliciting assistance from various organizations with shelter capabilities. What a good shelter owner~ But it is worth noting-
Before Harrison put away his notes, Zach pointed to the 'Pixar Department Store' under the North District list, "Pixar is also willing to help?"
"Yes!" Harrison looked very happy and walked out, not minding Zach following him. "He also helped a lot! He promised to mobilize merchants in Pixar Department Store to donate some unused materials. Then they lent us the underground warehouse and driveway of the mall, so we can arrange a new storage space and connect it to the shelter, doubling my space!"
Zach tilted his head and didn't comment. In fact, Zach had no impression of this lonely West End family. Although Pixar also participated in several West Enders events (Jackson's funeral), they had no sense of presence and did not take the initiative to communicate with Zach.
But it should be a good thing that Pixar can help the shelter. After all, helping the shelter means helping Quinn and Smith. Maybe we can actually get in touch with this person in the future.
Before Harrison got in the car, Zach stopped caring about the shelter, and it must be said what really kept him in Mary's Church. Everyone should be able to guess it. The reminder was last Wednesday, before the game night, Zach asked Siberia for help at Paisin but was rejected by 'ruthless'.
"How's Emilia doing lately?"
"Uh..." He felt awkward for a moment, and Harrison pursed his lips and looked at Zach, "She's fine, very good. Thank you for your concern." He wanted to get in the car quickly, because as soon as Zach mentioned Amelia, he would This must be a situation that Harrison wants to avoid - Amelia has made it very clear that she doesn't want anything to do with Zach, right? So is Harrison going to be the 'bad' guy who gets his girlfriend in front of Zach again
Zach didn't stop Harrison, he just stood by the car and watched quietly as Harrison got in the car, put on the seat belt, and inserted the key...
After all, the hand holding the key did not turn it to the end. Harrison looked at Zach outside the window with a troubled expression, "Well... you, ask Amelia, is there something wrong?"
Be reasonable. Zach just told Harrison that you can abuse my relationship with Mrs. Quinn at will. Can you imagine how helpful this will be to Harrison. Then, would it be too heartless to just drive away and leave Zach behind without saying anything...
"I need a psychiatrist." Zach also looked at Harrison with a hint of sympathy, "If I had other methods, you know I wouldn't ask Amelia."
Harrison took a long breath of helplessness, "Okay. What happened?"
"What happened to Mokavi and Benjamin." Zach was even more helpless than Harrison. "If they continue to stay in the nursing home, they will probably create a lot of children." This is a joke, but not funny, in every sense. , "I can't let Mokawi stay in the nursing home, I need her to come out, I need Benjamin to come out. So I need a professional, certified doctor to give a certificate of recovery and let Mokawi come out."
Harrison frowned, not understanding, "This, this shouldn't be difficult, right? I, uh, I mean, you can just..."
When Harrison started pointing at Zach's eyes, Zach's expression was like a dead man, "I tried it, and the result I got was that Mokavi called me from the nursing home and praised me for my progress. , and the doctor’s resignation.” Feel it.
"Uh... Then, what can Amelia help..." Sincerely, Harrison doesn't care much about Zach's self-esteem right now. He is worried that if he really agrees to help Zach, Emilia will confront Moka. dimension! Mokavi praises Zach for his improvement!
"This is a bet." Zach was very honest. "I want to bet that Benjamin still has some sense and will not let Mokawi do anything to the Emilia we all know." Bet on Benjamin's rationality? No, the bet should be on Benjamin's overflowing sympathy and the glimmer of consciousness that emerged after seeing Zach looking for Amelia - that's almost enough, Zach has been forced into a corner.
"...I'm sorry..." I was really sorry. Harrison couldn't help but just agree, "I, I'll go back and discuss it with Amelia, okay?"
Zach nodded, either rejecting it outright, or the best result that Zach expected, "Give me a call, and you will discuss it and get the result."
"Well, well..." Harrison turned the key with an ugly expression.
Zach also backed away from the car. This was probably the only gain from walking around Barton today. In the field of vision that was about to watch Harrison leave, a little red was swaying in the car that was starting. It looks familiar.
"What is this?" Zach looked at the dangling red knot hanging under the rearview mirror, which seemed to be the same as the knot retrieved by Mrs. Sheila that morning.
"Uh... I met a strange republican on the road and gave him a ride. He forced it on me and I hung up..." (.)
