Grande's afternoon was as calm as usual, because of the 'industriousness' of the phantom Daniel, when Benjamin returned to the warehouse, all the miscellaneous items were neatly arranged, and even the missing shelves were assembled. Benjamin had nothing to do, so he had to lie in the hammock and chat with Lola.

It's just that Benjamin seems to have figured out something, and no longer dodges Lola, and looks at Lola who is immersed in her 'miserable' high school life with a smile, "It's Mr. Sovest, not the ass chin." ”

"But he really has a chin like an ass!" said Lola seriously, her long eyelashes stirring, two fingers pinching a fold in her chin, she glared and lowered her voice, "Miss Lola Barton! What about your papers! If you don't turn them in after school today, I'll count you as a failure!"

Benjamin couldn't help but laugh as he watched Lola's imitation, and the joke was that even if Lola turned in the paper, she would definitely fail. The Barton family's academic talents seem to have been taken over by Kyle.

"You still can't always call him ass chin. Benjamin still tried to 'educate' the girl as an elder.

Lola narrowed her eyes cautiously, staring at Benjamin's frizzy chin, the brown stubble extending all the way to her neck, "Benjamin, do you have an ass chin?"

"Huh?" Benjamin touched his chin, and honestly, he couldn't remember what his real chin looked like.

"Go shave off!" Lola rose from the chair beside the hammock, her eyes shining.

Benjamin touched his chin and shook his head, "It's troublesome, it'll grow back in a few days." ”

"Go!" Lola crumpeted, pulling up Alice, who had been absent-minded, "Alice, have you seen Benjamin shaved his beard?"

Alice reacted for a while before she understood what Lola meant, and nodded, "Yes, in the photo." ”

"Let's go! we all want to see what it looks like!" Lola pulled the hammock and shook it.

"Okay, okay. Benjamin reluctantly agreed, and his stout body sat up from the hammock, "I don't have a razor." ”

"Zack's!" Lola still knew Zack's name, but she made a wrong judgment based on the appearance of the vampire she saw in her eyes. Zach's smooth chin is not the result of daily care, but is 'born'.

Benjamin pursed his lips and said casually, "He's a guy who cares about personal possessions." ”

Lola is not enough to put aside her education since childhood and propose to use old Hank's. She frowned and thought for a moment, "What about Matthew's?"

Benjamin reluctantly walked to the Grande House, where Matthew had a room and occasionally stayed in the Grande when it was too late. Working at the Grande House is much better than the postman's job in the past, with the freedom to work (i.e., handymen), room and board, and the occasional extra money.

Matthew's room is very neat, the tables and chairs are properly arranged, there are no clutter on the counter, and the small single bed is also taken care of.

Matthew was a very good young man, and he had only a few changes of clothes and trousers in his closet, a few small miscellaneous items in the drawer next to the bed, and an old razor with a wooden handle in it. Benjamin grabbed his razor and headed to the bathroom.

Lola looked at the room curiously at the door, if he didn't know that it was Matthew's room, she would have thought it was an empty room.

Benjamin held Matthew's razor in one hand, raised his chin, and slowly scraped a layer of water in the mirror, revealing much fairer skin. Benjamin frowned, obviously regretting it, but stopping there would definitely make him regret it even more. Benjamin looked in the mirror, Lola was smiling behind him, holding her stomach, and smiled awkwardly, "Don't look at me." ”

Lola blinked, 'intimately' withdrew, and closed the bathroom door. The girl who had nothing to do for a moment wandered around the second floor of the Grande House, and every time she passed by Matthew's room, she had to take a curious look.

Alice had just walked into the stairwell with Lola when she heard Zack's summoning bell, apologized to her friend, and turned to go to Zack's office.

Two guests came to Zack's office.

"Since you have come in person, I will treat you with friendly hospitality first. Zach smiled at the man sitting at the desk, "Tea?" or coffee?"

Quest looked sideways at Alice, who had just come in, with disdain in her cold eyes, "I want it in your hand." ”

Zach shook the 'wine' glass in his hand, drank the remaining liquid, and looked at Alice, "Alice, white water." ”

Alice nodded and exited the office.

Quest's face became even more gloomy, and the people behind him looked at Zach silently, without any expression.

"Where's Daniel?!" Quest didn't seem to want to waste time.

Zack's gaze circled Quest's back, and the phantom man that Quest asked for was floating in the air, and in the horizon that did not belong to this world, the gray mist wrapped around Quest's body, gathered, and then drifted into Daniel's body, turning into a bright streamer, circulating in the phantom's body.

Daniel's face gradually changed, gradually returning to the way he once was.

Zach raised an eyebrow, and such an obvious change was not Daniel's initiative, but from Quest*. With such an immediate effect, you can imagine how strong he wanted Daniel's *!

Quest's palm slapped heavily on the table, he had already noticed that the person opposite was not focused on himself, he stood up and leaned forward against Zack's desk, "Where's Daniel!!"

Zach's gaze retracted, turning to Quest, "Behind you." ”

Quest turned his head, of course, he couldn't see anything, he became angry, reached out and grabbed Zack's collar, "He, where, where!"

Zack smiled and shook the hand in front of the neckline, with a slight force, and in the clear bone click, Quest, who was still majestic in front of him just now, let out a soft snort, and the whole body retreated, his left hand covered the strangely shaped right hand, shrunk in front of his chest, and curled back into the chair.

A low, suppressed grunt came from Quest's arched upper body, and the man behind him frowned as he looked at Zach who was concentrating on his collar.

"Sorry, just kidding. Zach smiled as if he didn't want to, the neckline on his chest had been straightened up, and he looked at Quest who was huddled together, "I don't know where Daniel is, I'll let him go when you call." ”

Quest looked up suddenly, his moist eyes filled with a faint bloodshot, and glared at Zack. It's not easy to endure such pain.

"Don't look at me like that. Zach waved his hand and looked at his right hand, which was curled up in front of his chest, his fingers strangely parting and tense, "It will be fine in a few days." And, it's you who do it first. ”

Now we know why Benjamin pushed Quest away in the first place, not to make him ugly in front of the servants, but to avoid him touching the vampire's body. Like the Shapeshifters, all aliens with a different body temperature than normal humans do not like to be touched by others, with the exception of food candidates.

"You ......"

Zach waited for Quest's words, but the guy seemed to be choked by his own breathing, and for a long time he still only said one person, and there was no follow-up.

The office door was pushed open, and Alice actually came in with two glasses of water, and with some trepidation, she glanced at Quest who was cowering in her chair and placed the glasses in front of her desk. He looked at the other person who was silent, put the glass to the other side, nodded at Zack, and withdrew again.

Zach looked at Alice, who looked calm, and raised an eyebrow unnoticed, so these two guys wouldn't do anything to make the vampires decide to suck them dry. What a spoiler.

Zach looked at the silent man, "You haven't introduced yourself all this time. ”

"Peer. The man didn't seem to mean to introduce himself, and replied simply.

Zach nodded, and asked with a hint of gossip, "Did Mr. Quest pay?" he smiled and spread his hands, "Don't get me wrong, this is just a kind reminder from a peer." ”

The corners of the other party's mouth raised slightly, and he nodded, "A kind reminder from the seniors, always remember to collect the deposit first." ”

Zach grinned, accepted the identity of the junior, and nodded, "I remember, thank you." ”

The other party no longer speaks, and if he says more, it may affect the balance payment he can receive. It is not cost-effective to sacrifice one's own income in order to meet this 'peer' who suddenly appeared in Barton City in peace.

Zach looked at the grim-faced Quest again, "Mr. Quest, why bother asking me, you should trust this gentleman's ability, as friends in the same industry, we will not refuse this gentleman to take a look at Grande at will." ”

Quest's face twitched, and he glared at Zach to see that the other party was not polite. Quest turned his head to look at the person beside him, motioning.

The man, who did not want to be named, looked at Zach and nodded kindly, then turned and walked towards the side door.

"The burial ceremony is going on in the cemetery to the west, and there are our people there, don't forget. Zach reminded the man.

The man turned his head and smiled, "I've seen it." ”

Zach smiled the same way, not minding. It was evident that Quest did not want to be here, and the only reason he would come was because the people he hired did not want to offend the Grande House, which had suddenly broken into Barton's upper circle. Refusing to continue to serve him and come to Grande in person, Quest chose to come in person.

As the man left the office and walked freely around the Grand House, Zach casually pulled out a wine bottle and filled his glass with fresh liquid again, and when any smell permeated the glass, Zach took a deep breath, as if provocatively showing a satisfied expression in Quest's eyes.

"Before we wait for the results of that gentleman's investigation. Zach looked at Quest and said seriously, "Please tell me, you brought the check from the last commission." ”
