Chapter 25: A Visit to the Prison
The van stopped outside Barton Prison, and Zach and Benjamin got out of it at the same time. Zach stretched his arms with a look of satisfaction enjoying the sun. Benjamin shook his head helplessly, if the vampire stood still, ten minutes, no, five minutes, Zach would not be so 'satisfied'. It's just that he's struggling with his energy after gluttony.
Barton Prison still exudes a gloomy coldness in the sunlight, a matter of hue and complexion. The two were greeted by the overweight prison guard. The neckline was set under the folded neck, and he glared at Zach's fat lips and patted them up and down, "You'd better bring compensation!"
Zach smiled and handed over the box in his hand, "I'm sorry, I hope the warden didn't blame you too much." But you know, I have to say. We don't want that to happen again. ”
The guard's stubby fingers flipped through the box, and the food Alice had prepared was piled up inside, and the grease stains stained the edges of the carton. The prison guard snorted, seemed satisfied, shook his head, and turned to the side, "This way." "It's over.
Grande's men had never entered the prison in a formal way, either by going straight to the side door to collect the body, or by going up the work stairs into the warden's office. It was the first time he had entered the prison in this way, so Zach looked around with some curiosity, and behind the fat prison guard, through the narrow corridor, he came to a long, dark room.
The entire room was separated by a transparent baffle that I don't know if it was glass or plastic, with visitors on one side and prisoners on the other. Black wooden panels are inlaid on the long table, separating the left and right, and the hanging intercom is hung on the wall. There were three people in the transparent cage, and they glanced at the new visitor, and after enough, they continued to listen to their 'boss'.
The 'General' smiled and leaned out from behind the black baffle and beckoned to Zack. "I knew it was you! Wait a minute! ”
Zack raised the corners of his mouth and said hello, then he and Benjamin stepped aside for a while, waiting for the 'General' to end.
It can be seen that the 'general' is very relaxed, and what he says is very unnutritious, "Just treat this as a vacation and make some friends." Expand our 'business'. "The general's raised eyebrows were reflected by the transparent baffle, and who knew what he was saying that only they understood, "Just relax......"
The three behind the transparent baffle nodded, and only Seth gave Zack a quick glance and noticed that the vampire raised an eyebrow and smiled.
After the 'general' finished speaking, he walked towards Zack with a smile, and his tone was deliberately raised, as if he was tempting. "Then I won't disturb your work?"
"I would appreciate it. Zach smiled too.
The 'General' stared at Zach and smiled for a while, tilted his head and opened his arms, retracted deliberately, and grabbed Zack's shoulder, "We don't need to be so angry, what are you going to do?
The three men behind the baffle received orders from the boss to wait in place, except for Seth. The other two looked at the situation in confusion.
Zach smiled and shook his head, "Don't embarrass me. You just have to relax. Just wait for someone to come out and don't worry our little detective. This is already quite obvious.
The 'General' raised an eyebrow, "Okay." I knew there must be something about that little 'black face' next to Cowson, but I didn't expect it to be you!
Zach kept smiling and acquiesced.
The General's eyes narrowed. After a moment's hesitation, "But I know what you've done, is there any progress?"
Everyone is a smart person, whether it's Detective Cousson or the 'General'. From a few words and feelings. You can see the clues in our Lance detectives. But James obviously won't tell the truth, so they just know that James must have found someone to start the operation, but it doesn't work yet.
"Huh. Seeing that Zach just kept smiling, the general shook his head helplessly, "Okay, forgive me, after all, it's my people inside." But you're just like No, you're really tight-mouthed!"
"Thank you. Zach smiled and nodded, this is a compliment to No's profession!
The 'General' smiled and didn't ask again, but looked at Benjamin, because it was the first time they met, and he left after formally introducing himself.
It was not a surprise that the 'General' would come to Zack, and in a phone call with the warden before coming, the best warden complained about the welcome of the three new arrivals. In addition, James was in a hurry to leave because of Curson's call, and it was obvious that the general had also made a move, which made James feel uneasy.
But James can rest assured, the 'General' already knows that it is a friend in the circle who is taking over the matter, and for various reasons, he will not move anymore and use his own methods to solve Wells's idea.
There was a vending machine at the door of the so-called reception room, and Benjamin was bored thinking about what to buy to pass the time. Zach sat down on the cold stool and picked up the black earpiece, "I only have a few questions, you can leave one person to talk about." ”
Zach looked at the three people behind the transparent baffle, the 'general' had already made an introduction, and Zach stopped talking nonsense like 'I'm here to save you', but Zach deliberately stayed on Seth for a few more seconds, "It's just you, after all, we are familiar." ”
The General's subordinates knew about Seth's visit to the Grand House to give gifts, so the two men had no objections, patted Seth on the shoulder, summoned the prison guards, and was taken back.
"I called the police. As soon as he picked up the receiver, Seth said this.
Zach raised an eyebrow and waited for the other to continue. But Seth frowned and stopped talking after dropping the message without a clue. Zach was helpless, remembering that this was the complete opposite of Kim.
"Aren't you going to explain?" Zach prompted.
"Explain what?" Seth stared at the vampire with a pale face from behind the baffle, "Didn't you come to get us out? Then I answered you, no, I called the police, that's all. ”
It's rare that this guy has said so much, but it still hasn't answered Zach's real doubts.
"You ......," Zach pouted, "Sue your companions and the 'General', is this all because of you?"
"Of course not. Seth glanced at Zach with an idiot-like expression.
Zach narrowed his eyes, "So, tell me why." "Otherwise, I'll take it for granted that you're the hunter here who came in on purpose." I would be very angry. (To be continued......)
