Falcon left, and Sadier entered the office, but not completely. He closed the door and leaned back, his hand still on the door handle and his head lowered, as if he was thinking about something.
For some reason, Zach enjoys seeing the people he interacts with think. How to describe it, it's like a game. If your opponent just throws the pieces on the chessboard at will, you probably don't have any expectations for the game. Zach did say that communication is war, right, so this metaphor is fitting.
"You should sit down." Zach motioned to the chair where Falcon's body heat might have just dissipated.
His thinking seemed to have come to fruition. He still leaned against the door, but took his hand off the doorknob. He raised his eyes slightly and looked at Zach, "No need, I'll be quick."
Can a troublesome and dangerous commission be 'quick'? No. No matter what commission Sadier was planning to make when he first met Zach, now, he has obviously rejected it after careful consideration.
So Zach looked understanding, smiled, and nodded, "Okay, I'll let you think about it again. I also said I won't mind, so, haha, I won't mind."
A chess game that ends before it even begins. Zach has stood up and started to tidy up his appearance. He is getting ready to go out to the West End, to the home of a beautiful woman who pursues happiness...
"Although I don't want to admit it, our jobs are very similar to some extent." Saidir looked at Zach and spoke.
For a guy who talks quickly, he unexpectedly opened up a very big topic.
Zach was adjusting his cuffs while looking at Saidil by the door with some confusion, "You mean funeral?"
Sadier probably didn't expect Zach to respond like this, so he opened his mouth and said, "Uh... no, you have another job."
Zach stood behind the desk and didn't know whether to leave or sit down again. He raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Haha, thank you for your elevation, but you really don't have to lower yourself. Your work supply is safe. , my, haha, another job, probably has nothing to do with supply."
"It depends on what kind of 'security' I provide to customers." Saidil pursed his lips, frowned slightly, and looked at Zach's posture, "Are you going somewhere?"
"Yeah." Zach nodded, explaining that it was impossible, "unless you still want to talk about something."
"No." Saidil shook his head and returned his hand to the handle. He gave up the unnecessary expression on his face and looked to the west, "The work over there can be finished in the morning, and I don't have anything to see. Leave now."
"Okay." Zach was reminded, curled his lips, and picked up the phone, "Now it's time to remind me, I have to call the towing company..." The dialing started, but Kate's grandmother's car was still blocked on the gravel road.
Saidil nodded, started to push down the handle on his hand, and turned his body to the door, saying goodbye, but the movement was very slow, very slow, and he suddenly spoke very fast, "I want to find Nuo, because He seems to have a good relationship with the Smith family again... "
Zach held the receiver, glanced at Sadier, and said nothing.
"...Before Smith resigned from all the servants, security guards, and staff in the manor, we, Saidil, were the security company that 'provided' Smith with safety..." Just the action of opening the door and leaving was slowed to the extreme by Saidil, and he was The extreme speaking speed constitutes a sharp contrast.
It is no exaggeration to say that Zach could hear the groan of the door lock spring being stuck, but he still did not speak.
"... Our company has some secrets about Smith, secrets that we ensure to be 'safe'. At the same time, Smith also has some secret operations that our company has carried out to ensure the safety of his secrets." Saidil continued to speak at a very fast speed. Completed an emphatic pause.
Probably what he is referring to above is 'it depends on what kind of 'security' I provide to the customer'.
Then, "I want you to help me get back the records of our company's actions that Smith has, and then destroy them."
No matter how slow it was, it was just a door lock. It still completed a ninety-degree turn. The door opened. Sadier glanced at Zach who was covering the phone. The call to the towing company was already connected, and Zach was just using this. The movement told Saidir, 'You still have a chance to finish. '
Saidil seized the opportunity, "Not only Smith, but every West End family our company has ever served has more or less such records and documents in the hands of their West End residents. This makes our company stand out in the eyes of these people." Become vulnerable, Bishop sues us, our company is policed, Fisher's ship is suspended, our company is policed..."
It seems to be true, Seidir Security Company is indeed similar to Grande's other identity. You can guess the example Saidil gave - what kind of records and documents existed in Smith's hands that Saidil wanted to destroy. Still remember that Smith Manor resigned all the staff because of the tape incident? It was a clear security incident. How do you think Smith conducted his private investigation before entrusting Zach to investigate? The answer is Saidir who now wants to destroy certain files. Hehe, Smith did a favor to Sadier by quitting everyone, and he lost one chance of being swarmed by the police...
"... And the people in the West End who control these records include Mr. Falcon, who just left your office."
Zach nodded to Sadier, that was all he could do, to show that I understood.
If we can't keep up with Zach's understanding, just remember the conclusion -
After personally experiencing the personal communication between Zach and Falcon, Seidir temporarily vetoed the decision to entrust Zach. Instead, this was a test to see if Zach, whose relationship with the West Enders was so ambiguous, could be trusted. . So Zach was given a clue, and Falcon also had documents that were unfavorable to Sadier. When Sadil clearly told Zach that it was not just Smith, not just Falcon, but all the West End families that Sadil had served, and Falcon obviously had a private entrustment transaction with Zach at this moment, Zach wanted to What to do with this line.
If Zach uses this line to help Saidil, it means that Zach can take advantage of the special relationship with the West Enders to continue helping Saidil. If Zach didn't help, Saidil had nothing to lose. He had already lost the competition with Ax, right? I still lose because I am always patronized by the police. As a security company, hehe, it is really humorous.
Sadier also nodded again, and this time, he left without speaking suddenly, leaving Zach, who was still in the office, talking to the receiver, "Sorry, towing company? I have a vehicle here..."
Without wasting much time, Zach also left the office. Sadier was no longer in Grande. Only Shepard avoided Zach's sight. He seemed to be a little aware of the conversation between his boss and Zach. What good results were obtained.
Zach is a truly caring guy. If his presence makes people uncomfortable, he just disappears - he goes directly to the back porch, car keys already in hand, ready to...
"I want to go~" Louise sat on the bench on the back porch, tilting her head and looking at Zach with a puppy, no, woman, kitten, kitten look, "I'm so bored. ~”
Remember when the Grand was renovated, Austin admired how private the layout of the Grand was now (the office is on the second floor, separate from the reception room and exhibition hall). The separation between the upper and lower floors creates a perfect sound insulation effect, providing the most secure communication experience to any customer who comes to Grande.
This promotion is a joke.
Zach smiled and shook the keys in his hand, "You want to go? We're probably going to invade someone's home."
"Heather, right~" Louise shrugged, "A woman's home~" The corners of her eyes curved curiously, "The home of a beautiful unmarried woman~"
Don't admire Louise's superpower of always being able to redirect her focus to magical places. Consider the practical significance of Louise's request now - Grande's own work can no longer satisfy Louise, she is even more He took the initiative to take a step forward.
Zach raised an eyebrow, honestly not too surprised, Louise had already played a role in some of Grande's internal events, like Austin. It was only a matter of time before Louise began to use her abilities outwards. Zach thought for a while with a smile on his face, then threw the keys in his hand to Louise, "Then, you drive."
But she was immediately thrown back to Zach. Louise shook the car key that she had in her hand at some point, "Drive my car~ I don't want to drive your old car (that old cloth car)~ "
Zach didn't care, but he was looking forward to sitting in Louise's co-pilot. Think about it, this seems like the first time! Also, don’t complain about the expectations of vampires. For immortal vampires, the first time is very important and very memorable, because the last time is a bit unrealistic...
"Oh, by the way." Louise rummaged through her pockets when she stood up, took out a bunch of stuff wrapped in toilet paper, and handed it to Zach.
Zach took it, opened it, looked at the twisted thing inside, and asked with confusion, "What is this?"
"I don't know." Louise shook her head and walked towards the car, "I found it when Boring was cleaning up the basement." In fact, Louise doesn't have to keep stressing about Boring, although Grande is closed now, It's excusable, but to be honest, even if Grande is not closed and there is no funeral to prepare, she is just sitting behind the counter, occasionally selling some small things to a few people who come to visit the grave. Make sure this thing is there..."
Zach followed Louise, trying to restore this twisted thing. It looked like a twisted cigarette, with brown and yellow tobacco leaking from the wrinkled and broken white cigarette roll.
Zach took this thing and smelled it, "It doesn't smell like smoke, but..." Zach frowned, the smell was surprisingly familiar, as if he had smelled it somewhere, "I think, I have smelled it somewhere. This smell..."
Louise didn't pay attention to what Zach was muttering to himself, and said her own, "I collected all Sam's materials and packed them up, um, but I'm not sure if these things are also his." Louise Si looked back at Zach, with an unknown emotion in her eyes, "I didn't see the same, um, stuff."
Don't expect Louise to understand the witchcraft materials that Zach doesn't understand. The tidying up she showed up out of boredom was just putting the same things together and putting them in a box. Really To clean up the basement, Maya, under the leadership of Alice, Laura and the gang, must be willing to come back and finish her homework...
"This is not mine." Zach frowned. The wrinkled thing was completely broken after he tried to restore it. There were a few sparse tobacco pipes hanging in the paper roll full of holes.
"It's not mine either." Louise curled her lips, "Only the three of us will go into the basement..." Louise's unclear look appeared again -
Okay, this is a normal emotion. Sam came to Grande in a magical way, and he probably 'left' in a magical way before anyone could adjust whether to like him or not, or at least try to get along well with the wizard. To say you are sad is too pretentious, and to say you don't care is not very human. So that's all I can do, give a complicated look when I have to mention him, as... comfort
Louise shook her head, "Unless one of the three of us has the bad habit of smoking in the closed basement, this thing shouldn't be there." This was the point she wanted to express. She found someone who shouldn't. Something appeared somewhere, so I showed it to Zach. A bit like Matthew the day before yesterday, isn't it...
Zach raised his eyebrows, remembering the ball under the floor that Matthew found the day before yesterday, "It's probably Sam's, after all, I really don't know if he has any secret habits..." He raised his eyebrows again, once he started to think that this was The thing belonged to Sam. Zach was reminded by his own thoughts again and looked at the thing in his hand again, "I think I did throw him a pack of things that looked like cigarettes but were not cigarettes and asked him to dispose of them..."
Zach remembered the pack of 'cigarettes' that he had snatched from Saint Sissi's hand and crumpled into a ball in Repte. At the same time, Zach also remembered where he had smelled this smell - yesterday when he went to Port Massa, in the I smelled it at the Becky shelter, and asked for cigarettes from a strange veteran but was rejected...
Zach stood there motionless, holding the crumpled cigarette with two fingers and shaking it, completely shaking off the tobacco in the cigarette. He looked at Louise and said, "You only found one?"
"Uh... should there be more?"
"Well, a whole pack." Zach squatted down and began to collect the tobacco that he had missed along the way.
"Uh, what are you doing?" Louise was already standing by the car door, but Zach was squatting on the ground and returning the same way.
"This is Eve's new 'work'." Zach pursed his lips, not knowing what emotion he was feeling now, "I want to give it a try."
Louise was stunned for a moment, and then immediately turned her head away, unable to bear to continue looking.
Really, the scene of my man picking up tobacco on the ground and then smoking it is so 'beautiful'... (.)
