19 Emilia
Midnight.
The lights are still on in the Grande, and the employees in the living quarters are on the Grande side, cleaning up the filth that no one knows what it isβthe corpse of the slime.
The viscous liquid seeped into the floor on the second floor, flowing down the crevices, walls, and all the way to the first floor, and the normal cleaning methods did not work at all.
In addition to Grande's employees, Emilia is also here, and although she has light makeup on her face, she can still be seen tired, with black green under her eyes.
It was a coincidence that Emilia was here, she went to Newton to visit Harrison after work, and stopped by Grande when she returned...... Sit down. Uh, whatever Emilia's original purpose in coming to Grande is - girlfriend goes to see her boyfriend at night and comes back without staying overnight??
Don't think about it, no matter why Emilia went back to Barton and why she decided to come to Grande on the impromptu basis, anyway, after she came, after learning that Grande's employees were cleaning up Slimebill's body, she forgot why she came and began to go crazy.
"The first alien to settle down in Barton, or under your Grande's roof, under your Zachary Torredo's nose!dead?!dead!!"
This seems to be the case. But there is another version, and Zach says for Emilia: "The first alien you arranged for Barton is dead. β
Ha. Can you read it?
Emilia tries to define this as Zack's responsibility, but hehe, don't think about losing the pot!
Hank has begun directing the staff to dispose of the filth with 'clean-up' equipment, and has warned all employees that no one is allowed to ask about Bill in the future.
"Do you know what impression this incident will make those aliens have on Barton?!" Emilia can't deny it, after all, everyone in Grande knows that Slimebill was shoehorned into Grande by Amilia, and in Grande, it is impossible for her to shirk responsibility, no one will speak for her, "Those aliens came to Barton for safety! And this is the safety that you Grande showed them?!"
"You say as if I have an obligation to promise the aliens. "Zach was looking at the packaging of a can of baby food, and to be honest, Zach had been looking at it for a long time β Mokawi seemed to have 'ransacked' the maternity and baby section of Big Q and brought back a lot of supplies. Since the afternoon, Zach has been looking at the ways in which various items are used.
The food was deliberately left for the last view, because Zach instinctively felt that the most unlikely thing for this baby to happen was to starve to death......
Well, lest I get me wrong, and explain what Zach thinks.
It's too simple for a vampire to keep a human baby. This baby is in Grandrie, and life is absolutely safe. It means that if he wants to survive, there will be absolutely no problem. Zach felt that even if he fed him food and medicine for adults, he was not afraid of really hurting anything. Isn't it, vampire blood, to solve everything. In fact...... Zach had already done this once, and before waiting for Mokavi to return, Zach asked Bane for something like the leftover milk powder from his house.
With this big premise, the trouble for this baby for Zach is the 'extra' things that are not alive.
For example, how to keep him quiet, which includes preventing him from crying or babbling unincomprehensibly, how to keep him clean, including cleaning up excrement, bathing, and human care, and how to make him begin to understand the world, including what he is and what the adults around him are, which is called education......
This human baby is his godson after all, and only ensures that he is living at a minimum? Zach feels sorry for his identity.
So Zach spent a lot of time looking at every toy, care item, and early education tool...... The instructions on the package roughly know how to take care of a baby, and then start to look at the hard needs of normal human parents, the food that can keep the child alive.
Oh yes, don't think Zach has experience in taking care of babies in the Northland, but how fast the human age is evolving, do we need a vampire to tell us?
This is also the reason why Zach has a hard time reading the food descriptions now, and Zach hardly knows what the nutrients and ingredients are advertised on these packages...... After watching it for a long time, I only came to one conclusion - human beings turned out to be such fragile creatures, and they felt that if they lacked anything, they would become mentally retarded......
Zach glanced at Emilia and began to unpack the various baby foods, then mixed up the various things, "I didn't invite them (interracial) to come, if you want to complain, you should go to Sbella to complain, she was the one who first had the idea of creating a safe harbor in Barton." β
"Heh!" Emilia laughed angrily, "Now you're starting to say things like that?!" staring at Zach as he mixed all sorts of things into something suspicious, his face tilted, "Newborn babies don't need to eat these things!" casually found a can of milk powder and threw it to Zack, "Just feed it regularly!" and then returned to her original theme, taunting Zack, "Also, what you've been doing at Barton is just protecting yourself!!"
Although it was a taunt, Emilia was right, especially since she knew what Zach had done to Harrison. Zachary Torrey's first day in Barton was all he wanted to do was protect himself.
Zach looked at Emilia and digressed, "Do you have experience in taking care of children?"
Amilia's face was insulted, "Is it because I'm a woman? You instinctively think I have experience in taking care of children?!"
This is too sensitive, Zach didn't want to pay attention to it, still stubbornly found a few other formulas of milk powder, and began to mix.
Emilia looked at Zach with a dark face for a moment, "Later, if an alien asks me how the first slime to come to Barton is doing, how am I going to answer?"
"I thought your job was to audit the interracials, not the other way around, to be asked by them. Zach mixed a pot of milk powder, rinsed the water, and tasted it himself...... It's time to feed the baby.
Emilia followed Zach, and remained silent as she passed by the employees who were doing the clean-up work in Grande, and as soon as no one was around, she immediately said, "If I can make those aliens feel safe, it will be easier for me to have a conversation with them! Effective communication can make me better understand their thoughts and complete the review!" After speaking, she complained, "Tsk, why do I explain my major to you!"
Emilia really doesn't need to explain, Zach does. Toredo also often uses this kind of communication technique, to put it bluntly, it is to use a sense of security to break through other people's mental defenses and obtain information.
Zach walked to Benjamin's room (formerly Alice's), and Mokawi's voice came from inside, "Whose eye color is it? Not like yours, are my eyes the same color?"
Zach glanced back at Emilia and suddenly became serious, "I rejected your idea of becoming Toledo last time, so strictly speaking, you don't need to do this job anymore as an excuse to 'tempt' me." β
Emilia looked at Zach, her face changed many times in a short period of time, and finally stabilized...... "Are you refusing, I thought you were just trying to mock me for losing my human self-esteem." β
You can recall the scene at that time, and I won't repeat it.
Zach raised an eyebrow and said very abruptly, "Emilia Browning, you're a good choice for Toledo's descendants. Appearance, profession, social class, living environment. They are all suitable for Toledo, especially now that Toledo is sparsely populated, and Toledo needs talent. β
Emilia was stunned for a moment, looked at Zach, and tilted her head to the side unconsciously.
"But your attitude is so bad. Zach shook the bottle in his hand, "Look at me, most of the time I smile at people, but you, now I can't remember when you smiled." Zach really smiled at Amilia.
Amilia's face twitched, don't laugh, the calm she had just now was also lost, and she had a gloomy face, "What do you mean!"
"It's not interesting. Zach kept smiling, "I'm just telling you that you want to be a vampire, to be Toledo, you can." It does have a positive effect on the Toledo clan. I can agree with you and let you live forever. But you have to change your attitude towards life. Zach pushed the door, "Toredo is an elegant clan, we have our own rhythm of doing things, and the face we present to outsiders must be worthy of our Toledo's philosophy of existence. Zach, under the gaze of Benjamin, Mokave, and Emilia, picked up the baby, began to feed, and while feeding, he said to Benjamin and Mokave, "He slept with me, he was finally born, you all worked hard, I won't bother you parents tonight~ Oh yes, there are family planning supplies in the bedside table, use them~" Give Alpha and the ancestor a smile, go out of the room, and look at Emilia at the door, "Understand." β
Emilia's face changed a few more times, and then, after tidying up her appearance, a smile appeared on her face, and she looked up at Zack, her words reflected the first lesson she had learned from Zach, "If Torredo is to control the alien race that will enter Barton City in the future, and Slimebill died in Grande, we must have a complete explanation." β
Zach was still smiling, but he was smiling so much that he didn't have to keep it up. Zach gestured to his bedroom.
Emilia opened the door consciously and went in first.
Zach got into bed, found a comfortable position to sit, and looked at Emilia standing next to him, "That's right, you know how to talk to get people's attention." β
Come on.
Think about it, even if Zach is the godfather, is it a 'decent' act to take the baby away from the parents on the first night?
But that's what Zach did, and neither of his parents would have an opinion. Why? because the reason Zuch used was 'not to disturb Benjamin and Mokawi with family planning supplies'.
The rhythm of Toredo's shots is 'dead', and he won't give others a chance to refute.
Putting this lesson into Emilia's case, Emilia can use the fact that Grande didn't keep Slimebill's life safe. But the method must be correct.
Zack doesn't care what aliens think of Grande, it's known to everyone, Emilia got this job for herself, the origin is indeed to test Zack, but now that the results have come out, Zach doesn't care.
Then Emilia has to remind Zach, the person being confronted, that it makes sense to care about this matter! And the meaning is - Emilia's audit work, controlling the channel for aliens to enter Barton, can be Torredo's!
Listen to Amilia's words, she just threw away the reason why she originally proposed this job for the sake of 'Patton's harmonious development'!
In the case that Zach deliberately reminded Emilia that her profession, social status, and living environment were favorable to Toredo, Emilia accurately grasped the meaning of Zack's words - if you want to attract my attention, use Toredo to lead!
Zach looked at the feeding baby and thought for a moment, "Bill died of Mokawi's umbilical cord, I've put things away, you can let the news out." β
Emilia kept smiling, "That's what it means to be honest with all the interracial who ask?"
"Yes. Zach nodded, "Everyone knows about Mokawi's birth anyway." But no one knows why this happened with this baby. Zach tilted his head, "It's a human." At least we perceive it now, we are all authentic human beings who can no longer be authentic. Mokawi and Benjamin themselves are strong enough not to be taken advantage of by anyone, but this baby. Zach shook his head, "The follow-up umbilical cord can block a lot of unnecessary troubles for this human baby." β
To illustrate.
Zach didn't think about the collective good. Zach is now thinking only about the child himself...... It's not right eitherβ
Zach felt that Benjamin and Mokawi didn't care, and they couldn't care about it. But his godson has too many things to take care of. Zach didn't know how many people might be counting on using this child to reach themselves.
It's not so much that Zach cares about the child's problems, but that Zach cares about himself. Zach didn't want to put himself on a weakness because he had agreed to be the godfather of this child.
Zach looked at Amilia, "If anyone shows doubts about Barton's situation because of the reason for Bill's death, you don't have to review this kind of person, send them away." β
Emilia thought for a moment, "Is it troublesome to stay, maybe they will have any thoughts about this child?" β
Zach nodded, "That's what it means." β
"Okay. Emilia smiled, smiling sincerely, "Then since I said that I want to control the channel for this alien race to enter Barton for you, Toledo, shouldn't you also ......"
Zach held out his hand, "Take it yourself." β
Emilia only paused for a moment, then immediately moved, rummaging through her bag and emptying her water bottle, Zach's blood.
"You're still going to have to finish my basic Toledo education. β
"You have time to come whenever you want. "Zach wasn't looking at Emilia anymore.
