When the funeral in the west was over and old Hank returned, it was human lunchtime. In contrast to the smell of food coming from the living quarters, it was deserted from the Grande kitchen.

Benjamin stood in front of Zach, "Where's my lunch?"

Zach glanced at Benjamin to be quiet - Zach was answering the phone.

On the other side of the earpiece was Wes, who called and told Zach that the man with glasses was safely in the car home, "He said the reason he stopped at Barton was because he wanted to understand why you didn't want to reconnect with him." ”

"I don't have anything to do with him. Zach replied simply, "I told him very clearly." ”

"I know, but he doesn't understand that there is something in Barton that you think you care more about, and that you don't want to look back at Moriati Manor at all. ”

Zach tilted his head, "It's none of my business if he thinks like that." ”

"He collected some stuff about Grande, and he said there must be some reason why you care so much about the identity of 'Mr. Grande'. ”

"Huh. Zach didn't bother to respond, but, "It's hilarious that he's an outsider who can gather anything about Grande." ”

That's true, he said he had collected all the reports, news, information about Grande for almost a decade. Aside from the fact that Grande began to come out in large numbers during the year after starting in the private funeral business, he didn't find any reason why you care about Grande. ”

Benjamin interrupted, again with the same words, "Where's my lunch?!"

Zach ignored it. Originally, Zach didn't want to talk to Wes about the bespectacled man's mental journey, but since Benjamin is so 'conscious', let's talk more. This isn't the first time Zach has shown his naivety.

So he was ready to give up and go home, hehe, even if he was still a little self-aware. ”

"I don't think he's giving up. When he talks about the negative news about Grande written by Kate in Barton Daily, he is still excited, and he refuses to believe that you are the kind of 'villain' that the report writes about. ”

"Ha, isn't he scared enough by Murphy to still 'believe' in the qualities of the original owners of Moriati Manor? "That's right, the man with glasses revealed the reason why he and his father stuck to the Moriati Manorβ€”their ancestors were the first slaves of the Federation to be freed, because the owners of the Moriati Manor gave them this honor.

"Uh, Murphy, the woman who threw me out? Who is she??"

"You can ask Chief Darcy. Zach's eyes drifted to Benjamin, who was already very impatient, "I don't want to talk about Murphy, and of course, I don't want to talk about why Benjamin is with her." ”

Well, Benjamin turned and walked away gloomily.

Sure he couldn't hear Benjamin, Zach lowered his voice, "Did you ask why Benjamin and Murphy were at the train station?"

Zach didn't want to talk to the person for these reasons, and he didn't need to explain it. But that doesn't mean Zach doesn't care what Asammet and Alpha, who are temporarily staying in Grande, do.

I asked. "Wes is smart enough," but he didn't know, he said he was just waiting in the waiting area, and then the Murphy came over, asked him what his last name was, and then forcibly took him away. Wess said in a frustrated tone, "He said he was trying not to dwell on Barton's strangers β€” he was a little impatient with the city. Then, when Benjamin appears, he recognizes Grande's brother and follows with a hint of curiosity. ”

"Waiting area?"

"Well, he said that on the way back, Benjamin asked him why Murphy chose him, and he didn't know how to answer. ”

Zach thought about it for a moment, but to no avail.

"I think that's what Murphy said, she needs food, human. Benjamin didn't want her to cause any trouble at Barton, so he deliberately took her to the train station. ”

Zach pursed his lips, "It's possible." But I felt that there was something else, they went out early in the morning, and it would not take so long to find food, and at the same time, they really didn't have to move during the day. Something, it doesn't feel right. ”

"Uh, should I check the flow of passengers in and out of the train station?"

"Nope. Zach shook his head into the air, "You have your own work to deal with, I'll find a way to find out myself." ”

Wes on the other side of the earpiece breathed a sigh of relief, wondering how troublesome it is to check this kind of passenger flow information, "Then I'll hang up." ”

"Yes. ”

Zach put down the phone, left the office, went downstairs, and headed to the kitchen, where Benjamin was making his own lunch.

"You can go straight to the living quarters and eat. Zach didn't mean to help.

Benjamin glanced at Zach and didn't respond, only complained, "Why are there so few ingredients in reserve?!"

"Nobody eats, of course so little. Zach replied as a matter of course. Speaking of which, the time when Grande's food reserves are at their most abundant is when Kim is still there.

"Where's Murphy?" Zach asked if he hadn't heard Murphy in the direction of the warehouse.

"You gave her food and forgot?" Benjamin would have scoffed, yes.

"And you're just letting your client wander around Barton in search of food?"

"I need food too. Benjamin was completely unprepared to accept any accusations from Zach, "I can't stare at her all day." ”

Zach nodded, not accepting Benjamin's excuse, but, "You're going to tell me what you did in the morning, except for bringing a human to Grande." ”

"Are you going to tell you who that glasses man is?"

"Nope. ”

"Well, too, no. ”

There is no way to continue this conversation.

Just then, the phone rang again, and Zach ignored Benjamin's re-upstairs and picked it up.

"Zach!" was an excited voice over the earpiece, "It's us!"

"Russell?" the three guys who were sent to the feast by Zack, "You're finally here?" Zack smiled. Well, the reason is that it can be considered relaxation - these three guys should have gone to the west a long time ago, but they have not been heard from. Although it doesn't worry Zack, after all, Charlie Zhen III Toredo's ability is there. Zach doesn't think there will be any dilemma on the road that Charlie can't solve, but it's also a problem that he hasn't reported his safety.

"Yes! We're here!"

"Heh, did you delay on the way? ”

"Ha! It's Charlie who told me that there are several underground blood markets in the middle, and we looked around, hehe, it's kind of a market for me to investigate~"

Zach raised his eyebrows, "Sounds good~ But shouldn't you focus on the blood market in the west? ”

"Hehe, I'm here to do business!Of course, it's bought at a low price and sold at a high price~ So~ the market in the middle of the country, I definitely need to know ~"

So it's the low-cost cost of the chaotic middle, plus the stabilization of the high-priced source of customers in the west, yes, Russell's little abacus.

"Oh! Cha Ideal is talking to you!" "I've seen my brother dog......" tone is a bit ...... Wonderful," he felt very, well, awesome. "Don't have to speculate on Charlie's psychology, he said it himself-"He's the real human being who meets the criteria of a descendant of Toledo, right, I, I'm just a product of your trade......"

Zach was a little surprised that Charlie was accurate in his self-perception, but "Are you jealous of your young brother? Zach responded to Charlie in such a joking way.

There was silence on the other side of the earpiece for a moment, and then there was a smirk, "I'll protect my brother dog!"

Zach smiled, "I didn't hear Logan's voice, where is he?"

"Oh, he's gone to find a house. ”

"Huh?"

"Oh! Brother Dog's ghoul father helped us arrange a place to live, and I will live in his funeral home, and by the way, I will help them arrange the funeral business, Russell will live with me for the time being, but Logan wants to explore Vega City, so he wants to ask the person next to him in the ......, "Nanjiao? find a house, say there are more aliens over there." ”

Zach recalled the map of Vega City that he remembered and nodded, "Take care of him, Vega isn't very safe." ”

"Well, I know, Brother Dog is asking his ghoul father to help arrange it. "That Nick Giovanni also helps, and I just met with the people from Cappadocia, so we should settle in quickly." ”

"Good. Be cautious. Zach could only do so, and at the same time, noticing that the answering machine began to spin, which did not last long, and it was soon over.

"Well, we'll get in touch again if there's something. "There's an understandable hustle on Charlie's side.

Zach didn't say anything more and hung up. Ready to listen to the message, I don't want the ringtone card to be very timely, Zach picked it up.

Due to the speed of the pick-up, it seems that the other side did not react, and was still talking to the person outside the earpiece-

"The meaning is to re-establish a friendly relationship with Grande!" A somewhat familiar voice was Mr. Firefly in the crowd watching the play yesterday, listening to the tone, it seemed to be educating the younger generation, "Because of you, Grande no longer has a good impression of the Firefly family." "I can't continue to let this bad impression continue!" This is called sincerity. ”

Then there was silence on the earpiece.

Zach waited for a moment, only, "The phone has been answered, Mr. Firefly." ”

"Oh. "We're going to prepare some Indian food from home, and we're going to go to Parker Elementary School to treat Alice and her friends, as well as the kids at the nursery, to the real Indian food." "Completely when the silence just now doesn't exist," I hope you will allow it. ”

What can Zach say, the old gentleman has already announced that he is going to see his granddaughter, and now he is so sincere, "Of course. I have no reason not to allow it. ”

"You're a sensible Toledo. Mr. Firefly on the other side of the earpiece defined Zach, "I have another thing to discuss with you besides this. ”

"Is it information about Asammet in the Middle?" Zach speculated very reasonably.

"Look, I know you're sensible. "One more definition added.

"It's only been one night, and I don't expect me to get any information from my 'loving wife' overnight. ”

"Hahaha. "I'm also a reasonable person, and I wouldn't make such an obvious stupid request." "I hope so," but I hope we can keep communicating and exchanging information. For example, in the morning, our guys saw Mokawi and your alpha brother near the train station. ”

Zach raised an eyebrow, "Yes, they're back, but didn't tell me what they did." ”

"Exchange, information. The other party prompted.

"Okay. Zachdo said, "In the morning, Hamilton also came to me, bringing the instructions given by the Demon Banquet for the time being. ”

There was silence on the other side of the earpiece for a while, "fed a stray dog and argued with two people at the train station...... at the end of a pile of innocuous acts that seemed to be just a boring vampire, "she sent someone away from Patton while your Alpha brother wasn't looking." The faces of those who have our faces have been noted. ”

"When Benjamin wasn't looking?"

"She ate a station worker. Benjamin healed him, if you care about the life of that Patton citizen. ”

"Okay, I see. Zach's real thought was that Benjamin knew that Murphy had deliberately diverted his mind, "Hamilton told me to get as much news as possible about the Asammet clan before the official orders of the Feast came down. "It's an exchange of information, isn't it, after one party has finished speaking, it's time for Zack's turn, "It sounds like the Devil's Feast is intent on me taking advantage of my marriage relationship with Murphy." ”

It's time to verify Mr. Firefly's IQ.

"Really, allowing you to take advantage of Toredo and Asammet's interracial marriage? That doesn't seem to be in line with vampire ethics. ”

"It's not true. Zach replied in the affirmative.

"Yes. The other party was thinking about it for a while, "As the guardian of my granddaughter Alice, you, my advice is not to make the order of the Demon Banquet, and wait for the official order." ”

Zach smiled, "Okay. ”

The other party reacted quickly enough, "Hehe, that's what you're going to do, Mr. Zachary Grande." ”

"I am~" Zach kept smiling, and after verification, Mr. Firefly's IQ was online.

"Then that's not fair, you basically lied to me about Murphy's whereabouts in the morning. And the information you gave me is almost useless. Although the content is not good, the tone is a friendly smile.

"I'm sorry, but you should understand my difficulties. ”

"I understand, I said, I'm a reasonable person. ......," there was a pause on the other side, "I'm going to see my granddaughter at Parker Elementary School, we'll keep in touch, at least for now, you're still an important person in my mind, and I'll be on your side." ”

"I feel honored to hear him say that. "That's true, and there's no need for Zach to lie.

"Hehe, I'm hanging, I'll visit in person when I have the chance. ”

"Okay, I'll wait. Putting down the phone, Zach looked at the door of the office, where Benjamin put on Alpha's skin and stood at the door, "Man, who did Murphy send out of Barton?"

"Do your job well and you won't have this kind of problem. Zach said.
