Early in the morning, Zach behind his desk checked the three-enveloped letter one last time and pressed the summoning bell.

"Let Matthew in. Zach instructed Danny, who pushed the door open.

Today is Sunday, and Matthew has a morning off to accompany his father, who is a deacon in the church, to worship with him, but Zach still calls Matthew in advance, and before the holiday, he is going to give Matthew a little extra money.

"This letter is for Cyrus and Brill, yesterday I gave her the address of the cemetery, but the verbal description may not be clear, you know each other, help me send it. The first one was accepted by Matthew.

"This is for Mr. Greene, the location of Lip's cemetery, and I don't think he would want a letter from a funeral home to be sent to his house at this time, and after the service, you can go to the sanitarium and find him and give it to him directly. The second letter was accepted.

"The last one you need to go to the post office to get a special piece of mail is a letter to [Music Box] (the radio show), which Alice says is more sincere and easy to be taken seriously. Zach raised his eyebrows, looking completely unimpressed, but at this moment, he could only listen to Alice, after all, in addition to imitating a fan's tone to ask for the news of the Children of the Night, there was also a more serious request, hoping that the program team would punish the host for unethical words and deeds, and it was best to resign.

"Oh. Honest Matthew took the three letters, "Also, there is one more thing. Dad said that after today's service, the church may prevent believers from doing community service and doing things like fundraising to cooperate with the project at Mary's Church in the North Side, I would like to ......"

"It's okay, you can continue to rest in the afternoon and just talk to Benjamin. Zach waved his hand, "Well, is there any project for Mary's Chapel?"

"It's like a shelter. Raise some old clothes, money, and so on for those homeless people. Matthew didn't think much of it, and replied to what he knew, "Parker's nursery did it last time. ”

Zach knew about the church's support for the nursery, but that time Lola, who was short of money, asked Kyle to do it. Now, it's okay to think of it -- whatever the West End guys do. Crowley would always think of tricks to get involved.

Zach didn't say anything, patted Matthew, "Since you're here, go down and bring some breakfast before you go." "Straight to the end of the topic, he has more important things to deal with, Louise is already standing at the door of the office, on the east side," Sibella called, looking for Yuehua and Baiying. ”

Zach smiled and began to bring himself breakfast. "Tell her not to be so out of sight and call me. Grande had two phone calls, one of which was controlled by Louise, and behind the counter in the showroom, Louise answered the phone and went straight up the stairs to ask. The other one is on Zack's desk.

Louise raised her eyebrows, "Then I'll just reply like this and hang up." "I've turned around and walked away.

Zach shook his glass and smiled, but Sbella still didn't give up.

Five minutes later, Sbella must have been adjusting her mood. Zack's phone rang, and Zach answered it slowly. "You're so slow. ”

"Sunday. Sbella's tone was dry, not at all ready to accompany Zach in a circle, "Demon worship, I need Moonlight Hundred Shadows to attend the Indoan gathering." "Super direct.

"Has this become your usual itinerary?" Zach said in a flirtatious tone, "I thought the hostage swap had kept you and Crowley in partnership for so long. It also needs to be avoided like this......"

Zach didn't finish, "Please let Yuehua or Baiying answer the phone, I'm inviting the Indians, not you, vampire." ”

Zach turned his head sideways. Yuehua, who had already changed into her normal clothes - I mean Louise, the only adult woman in Grande, pushed open the office door at this time, still holding Alice's republican breakfast in her hand.

She looked at her and asked, 'Can I come in?'

Zach nodded and replied into the earpiece, "Don't be so xenophobic, Sbella, as you wish." The earpiece was handed to the black witch sitting across the desk, with bean curd on the corner of her mouth, and she didn't know if it was salty and sweet. Baiying knows.

"Sibella, I'm Yuehua. Smiled apologetically at Zack, wiping the bean blossom from the corner of her mouth, she was very calm about the earpiece's words, "Is there something wrong?" ”

So close, I'm too embarrassed to say it's Zach eavesdropping. Sibella's answer was as follows-

"I promised to explain Barton's situation to the Black Witch Gathering, today is the time for Barton's Indians to meet, and I hope you and Hundred Shadows will be able to attend. ”

"On Sundays, when the fallen angels are strengthening their faith without distraction. Yuehua's tone was still calm, and the meaning of the expression was everyone's own feelings, "We came to Barton to fully assess Barton's situation, a party that needs to avoid fallen angels, I think, I'm not very interested. ”

Sbella in the earpiece seemed a little irritated, "There are some things to avoid the fallen angels, and the friends of the middle hunters of the wizards who came to Barton with you, some of the things we discussed just don't want the fallen angels to know." ”

"Then I don't need to go. Yuehua actually nodded on the phone, "Sbella, have you ignored that Salem is in the middle, and I know very well the struggle between hunters and aliens in the middle. Although I also appreciate that you were able to make a deal with Barton's fallen angels, complete the hostage exchange, and obtain the ownership of 'Colt', these things are not the reason why Hundred Shadows and I came to Barton. These are your business, not the Black Witch Rally concerns. ”

"And what do you care about?" Sbella's obvious impatience made her attitude very bad, probably because she knew she couldn't turn around anyway, and gave up, or, uh, just got angry with the vampires as soon as she got up...... "Why did you agree to come to Barton in the first place? You know I'm inviting you to create a ...... for these outcast wizards"

"Sbella. Yuehua interrupted before Sibella was about to say something good, "Don't talk about these things that are too idealistic, as an orthodox wizard from a wizarding family, Sibella, I am grateful for you to think of those of us who have been abandoned by the family, but last night, you should have seen that there is only one reason why we came, we want to meet Toredo." ”

Zach put down his glass and made a thankful expression in his contention.

There was silence on the other side of the earpiece, and after a moment, there was a self-deprecation in his tone. "You should know that I was going to explain directly why Barton had Toredo in the beginning. ”

"Yes. Yuehua smiled and glanced at Zack, "You describe him as an unstable threat, and you need the help of the Black Witch because you are pulling Alpha in the way." "Ironically, to Sbella.

Zach still has this self-awareness. So I smiled and shook my glass at the earpiece, indicating that I didn't mind. As for whether Sibella will receive it, hehe, she will never receive it.

Yuehua continued, still smiling, and even with a little comfort, "Sbella, you don't have to blame yourself, you who were born into an orthodox wizard family can't know about our relationship with Torredo. And we won't tell you that before we actually get to Baton. You can blame us for the concealment, but please understand us that we who have been doing well in Salem don't need to get involved in your plans, even if it's good. ”

Zach raised an eyebrow at this time, because when he was talking about Salem, Yuehua winked at Zack. Salem wasn't very good.

No goodbye. After just a long silence, Sbella hung up. It was an unpleasant exchange.

"What's wrong with Salem?" Zach gets straight to the point. Of course, it's still a bit gentlemanly to make the conversation less rushed, "I heard you tell Alice the story of Salem last night, but it seems to stop at what I know." "Before Toredo was rounded up.

"Salem is good. "That's not what Yuehua's blink means?" "It's not so good for us, the banshees." Black witches, not so good. ”

"Please. Zach raised his glass, ready to listen.

The other party shook his head, "My Zeng Zeng Zeng...... In my grandmother's memoirs, it was said that you had a unique way of interpreting things. Maybe that's not a big deal to you. ”

Zach smiled, "I hope it's a compliment." ”

"It is. Yuehua smiled, "In the era when the Black Witch was targeted by wizards of the same origin under her own faith, you said that the darkness is always preparing for the light, and in the darkest moment, there must be light ahead." ”

I remember that. Zach raised an eyebrow, "Then I suggested that you cooperate with me in the deception that allowed the Lord's faith to judge the Black Witch." ”

"yes. Yuehua nodded, "We can still resist the hunting of black witches by the Wizards of India, if the people who try to wipe out our race are added to the Holy Lord faith, we are fighting against the whole world, this is indeed the darkest era for us." We still suspect that the ancestors who weaved such a hoax with you at that time were crazy. ”

"Very good maniac, it turned out to be a success. Zach tilted his head and shook his glass, "There are also many Black Witches who died in the colonial wars, curses, hehe, the curses left on the battlefield are much more serious than the curses of Salem." But the threat of death in times of war can never be compared to the threat of death in times of peace, and so is the hearts of the people. After the scam, Salem ushered in peace. ”

Yuehua's smile was even more obvious, "Look, we can never interpret things, times, and human nature to such a point and have that kind of vision, and you can, Grande, sir." ”

"I hope this conversation doesn't continue to make me drift for what I once did. Zach lifted his glass, this is to ask the other party to return to the original purpose of the conversation, what happened to Salem.

"So, I'm sorry, I'm a little expectant, I don't know what you're going to say now, what kind of interpretation will you make?" she really had an expectant expression.

"Zach. Zach found that he was used to hearing people call him Zack, and he wasn't used to honorifics, "Just call me Zack." ”

"That, Zach. Yuehua tried to scream, and it felt very smooth, "There is a gap in our visit to the specific death, a big gap. ”

"Specific death?" Zach adjusted.

"Death from being killed by 'Colt'. "Probably because of the change of title, the extremely smooth Q&A unfolded, "Sibella gave the hunters in the middle a 'Colt', and as they used 'Colt' more and more often, we began to discover ......"

"I need to correct you a little. Zach interrupted for the time being, "Sbella didn't let 'Colt' go to the Hunters, it was a deal that the fallen angel Crowley offered to do, and Grande supervised the completion of the deal as a third party. Go on. ”

Yuehua nodded, "At first, we just found out that we were starting to miss out on some of the deaths that happened on the outskirts of Salem. Some of the aliens benefited from Salem's curse and lived in seclusion around Salem, as you know. ”

Zach nodded.

"From the moment the Covert Alliance left, they became restless, using the Salem perimeter as a protector and began to try to cause a riot outside. I heard that Reimer was attacked by them......"

"Eve Rimmel is at Barton, the Smith family, if you are interested, you can try to get in touch. Zach didn't know for what purpose he said this.

"Really?" Yuehua raised an eyebrow, as if surprised, "Let's talk about it when we have a chance." She switched to the point of narration, "This is now, before this, after Toredo was encircled, the Hidden Alliance was very concerned about Salem's movements for a while, probably thinking that you would hide in Salem. ”

"I don't want my former friend to ...... because I'm in danger" Zach smiled and waved his hand, seemingly reluctant to continue discussing this. Well, every time I say this, Zach always has this attitude, which makes people unhappy.

Yuehua was not reluctant, "In fact, we didn't quite understand the truth that Toredo would be surrounded and suppressed at the time, and we didn't want to be exposed because of our relationship with the Secret Alliance, so we kept silent. And then it was the outer races that were affected. She looked at Zach, a little serious, "The Hidden Alliance has done a lot of things to find you. ”

Zach didn't answer, just waved his hand to continue.

"With the abolition of slavery in human society, the rise of Western Kozil seems to have inspired some restless hearts of the aliens. At the same time that some of the alien races that escaped from the west began to flow into the central part of the country, the alien races in the central part also became more active because of the bounty of the Secret Alliance, and the impact of some radical measures taken by the Hidden Alliance when looking for you on the alien races in the central part of the country ......"

"You don't need to describe the chaos, I'm at the center of it, I know it very well. "Zach seems to be speeding things up. But what we know, he just doesn't want the conversation to continue at this point.

Yuehua smiled, "I've finished describing it, and at this time, it's also the beginning of the death event that we find ourselves missing." ”

Zach frowned, and he began to think, "You have already said that the death caused by 'Colt', you will miss it, and the time you are describing now, let me think about it, it seems to be the time when 'Colt' appeared, right?"

Yuehua nodded, "The activities of the alien race have made hunters prosperous, and 'Colt' seems to have appeared as if it was catering to the times. Banshee, we begin to find ourselves partially clouded by what we have become accustomed to seeing, but the friend who can guide us and tell us what it means, you, Toledo, can no longer be found. ”

This question continued in Salem over time, and no one could see what that meant, and we waited and waited for the day when a friend who could interpret our doubts would appear. But we didn't wait. When 'Colt' began to fade out of the hunter's sight, and we thought the doubt would disappear, it reappeared, this time the gap was getting bigger and bigger. The use of 'Colt' by the hunters in the middle is so frequent that we have to start doubting our own abilities, and even feel lost in educating the next generation, 'Banshee can't see death'. We need someone to interpret the original desire to renew our original desires. ”

Breaking the legend that has been piling up on our vampires is a very out-of-the-box phrase, and Hundred Shadows has come out of nowhere," Sbella called, saying that Barton had Torredo. (To be continued.) )
