9 Molman
From Barton North Police Station to the southeast, bypassing Knoll's villa area, well, mainly bypassing the private beach, you will arrive at Barton's most prosperous casino during the day except for Liszt Street in the summer, Knoll Beach.
Zach followed Moreman all the way here, seeking an explanation that Barton's most harmless alien fish-man had been taken to the police station and had used their agreement.
As you may recall, the vampires and alphas who decided to settle in Barton had an agreement with Barton's native aliens.
When he first arrived in Barton, the cleanup of the aliens in the city could only be regarded as an auxiliary to Anthony's police work, but Zack, who had already received the surname Grande, needed to confirm that these native aliens were silent about Toredo's identity, and these native aliens, except for some who died and failed to make an agreement with the vampire alpha at the time, seriously gave the 'reward' for remaining silent. Well, it's a two-way deal.
Walter, for example, used to cheat on elderly widows for a living, and he demanded that a good-looking guy like Zach stay away from him. A typical self-insurance agreement for a small person.
Another example is Sbella, oh, Sbella is important, because of her existence, Zach and Benjamin didn't need to pay attention to those soul aliens at that time, like Wandel. Think of Sibella as the leader of these soul-like aliens.
As you can guess, the terms of the agreement between Silbella and Zach to live together peacefully are Alice, who was wandering the streets at the time and is now Grande's sister.
Once Barton, Sbella had a special status. The protocol is naturally special enough. The other aliens actually have a self-preservation agreement similar to Walter, keeping the vampire and alpha away from him, or asking the two for help in special moments.
Oh. No, it's not two, it's three, Zach, Benjamin and Anthony came to Barton together.
Morman's agreement was actually very boring, and he couldn't think of anything he needed the help of vampires and alpha alone, and he didn't think that vampires and alpha were dangerous guys, but this agreement had to be done. So he thought about it for a long time, "I don't have anything to ask for, or else." The human being with you, Anthony, is a cop, right? Or if one day I'm caught by the police. Let him send me out?"
That's the kind of thing at the time. Anthony laughed twice and ignored it, so with the current adaptation, Zach's name was written on Molman's emergency contact.
But Zach never thought that this agreement would be implemented, that the merfolk would do bad things? impossible.
At the back of the beach, in a wooden hut against a coconut grove, Molman changed into his work clothes, which were nothing but a pair of swimming trunks. Then he pulled Lazak and walked to the beach.
Not long ago. Molman reported to his boss the reason for his absence from work for the past two days and produced a police case file. And his boss. He just scolded him twice, 'Is there a mistake!' and urged this guy to continue working.
It appears that Molman's case record has had no impact on his work. Well, it's just a play to the atmosphere of 'everybody trusts Molman' and 'the police arrest people'.
"I don't have any interest in your work. Zach looked at his shoes that would sink into the sand with every foot, and said impatiently, "I didn't hesitate to bail you out, should you also consciously explain what happened?" ”
"I haven't seen you in years, and you're as impatient as ever. Morman walked ahead with a smile, moving his body, his skin was wheat in the sun, and his tight and strong body should be the envy of all men. It just so happened that it was Saturday, and there were a lot of people on the beach, which gave Zach the illusion that this guy was showing off.
But in fact, this is not normal, no one who basks in the sun on the beach every day will have such tight and tight skin that people mistakenly think it is healthy wheat-colored skin, which should be covered with red sunspots.
"Patience?" Zach tugged at the corners of his mouth, took off his shoes, took off his socks, and carried them in his hands, "We've come all the way, and you've told stories from Urban Legends all the way, and if you're a loyal reader of this magazine, I know one of its editors, you can tell her well." ”
"Do you mean Riley?" Molman, the mermaid, turned his head to Zack in the sunlight and smiled, winking, "So it's true, there really are members of your Grande contributing to that magazine!"
Zach pursed his lips, he knew that the topic would be brought here, and Moreman obviously did it on purpose! They walked all the way from the police station, and the two aliens who hadn't seen each other for many years had nothing to do, and Moreman began to talk jokes endlessly, resolving the embarrassment of not having anything to talk about. Oh, and Urban Legends is a joke magazine.
"Who is it?" Moreman smiled at Zach, "Surely it's not you and Benjamin, it's Alice?
Zach glanced at Morman, this guy has this option, and the news is too late. What about Madison, what about the Phantoms, what about the Necronomicon...... It seems that Riley is quite right, and Barton's aliens are indeed curious about Grande's situation, and they need a source.
"Do you know Riley?" Zach asked, "did you find her, or did she find you?" ”
"She found me. "Like the shapeshifters who figured something out at the beginning of the year, they came to me when they tested whether Barton really didn't have a master." He smiled, "After all, we're a bit ethnically related. ”
This topic is about to become boring, that is, to explain the interracial relationship, Zack, the guy who knows, will naturally not be interested, waved his hand, changed the subject, impatient, "Hurry up and explain why you are at the police station, I don't want Anthony to find out that I have nothing to say after I bail out an interracial person." ”
"Does the mayor care about such a trivial matter?" Moreman looked a little surprised, and raised an eyebrow.
Zach shrugged, too lazy to answer.
"Okay. Molman pouted, "Then you come with me, uh-huh......" he lengthened his voice. Looking up and down Zack's outfit, "I think it's better for you to change your clothes." ”
"To go into the water. Zach asked gloomily.
"Yes. Molman nodded.
What is Zach expecting! How can something related to mermaids be on land!
Zach waved his hand. Rejected Molman's offer to return to the cabin and get Zach a pair of swim trunks. Our vampire has no interest in exposing his pale skin to the afternoon sun.
Following Morman again, the two were already on the southernmost side of the public beach, separated by a row of trees that would continue to the private beach to the south. In the woods, Zach knocked off half a bottle of snack jar and took off his coat. Bury it in fine sand and follow the mermaid into the sea. Molman pointed in the next direction, to the south. The way the two came was in vain.
Zach made an exhalation motion, a slight blush attached to his eyes, and his posture was graceful as he stepped into the water. Be one step ahead. Curious about the speed of vampires in the water. Forget it, I won't describe it this time, because Molman, who will be used as a comparison, can catch up with him in a second and leave some self-esteem for the vampire.
Moreman was not in a hurry, he stood in the water with his leisurely body, bending back and forth, and pulling his arms. It seems to be doing a warm-up exercise like stretching. Remember, the aliens living in humans have disguises? Vampire harnesses, merfolk warm up before entering the water, humans should learn more from these aliens.
Feeling Zach's speed, he should have swam half of the private beach area, and Moreman finished warming up. There seemed to be something in the eyes that opened and closed, and the ears magically stirred slightly, as if something was stirring behind the ears. The wheat-colored skin began to fade inexplicably, revealing a crystal blue, and began to reflect the sunlight unknowingly, a little colorful.
Not being able to see more, Molman's body tilted and his whole body fell into the water. The pale blue figure only stayed at the bottom of the sand bed in the shallow water, and after staying in the sunlight for a moment, it turned into an illusion of light and shadow that would make people think it was refracted by the water surface under the bright sun, and disappeared.
In the dark sea, where the sun couldn't penetrate, Zach felt something smooth hold his waist, and then immediately closed his eyes.
I remember that when Zach took Emilia to move at high speed, he intimately protected Amilia's eyes and protected her from the wind. Molman obviously didn't have such a close feeling for Zach as an alien, and Zach only felt that the pressure of the water around his body was getting heavier and heavier, and the direction of his progress, the pressure that his fragile eyes needed to resist, also made him more and more uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the process was not long, and soon, the pressure to move forward was gone, but the pressure around his body had already made Zack's eyes completely red. But in this dark seabed, where nothing can be seen, it is impossible to be discovered.
Zach felt his feet on the bottom and stepped on it vaguely, confirming it.
Trying to complain about what the hell Moorman took him to. But apparently it can't be, Zach keeps his mouth shut, and what vampires like to enter is blood, not salt water.
Zach made a squat motion in an 'elegant' posture at the bottom of the sea, slowly spreading his arms down, trying to sense his surroundings by touch. The clumsiness of terrestrial creatures is vividly displayed by our vampires.
A faint glow began to drift from Molman behind Zach, adding the only source of light to the dark ocean floor. Tiny jellyfish-like fluorescence reflected Molman's pale blue body, drifting across Zach's somewhat sunken pale cheeks, and began to spread in all directions.
Zack's red eyes began to show a gloomy look. Zach can't express where he is, but describe what Zach saw, and guess what Zach was trying to say.
Large black, presumably plastic bags, roughly estimated to be about two dozen of them, were held to the seabed by something like a fishing net.
The blue figure nimbly detoured in front of Zack, glanced at Zack, and gently turned around under the fluorescent wrap, swimming towards the edge of the fishing net. Molman uncovered the corner of the net that had been nailed into the seabed, and a bag that had been slightly puffed up floated from the edge of the unopened net.
If Morman hadn't pulled it, the man-tall bag would have floated to the surface. Molman unzipped the bag.
Well, the skin that was paler than Zack's vampire appeared in front of Zack's eyes, and the puffy cheeks made the skin uncomfortable and had a tendency to fester, this was a corpse.
Zach slid his arms, trying to get away.
Please understand Zach's behavior, here are two dozen such bags, and here are the sea. Vampires don't know if there's any 'poison-drug-' leaking from these corpses floating around here!
Moreman looked at Zach's expression and didn't say anything, just re-pulled the bag, resealed that bad cheek in the bag, pushed it back under the net, and secured the net again.
The scattered fluorescence began to go out, and after losing the light source for vision again, Zach felt someone dragging him by the waist.
The pressure of the current reappeared, but this time, Zach could feel it, decreasing vertically.
Moreman apparently didn't go back the way he came, but went up vertically, and he wanted Zack, a terrestrial creature, to see where the bags corresponded to the ground.
Gradually, you could feel the sunlight on your skin, and Zack, who was being held up vertically, looked up and opened his eyes, and the glaring horizontal plane was rapidly approaching.
Crash!
Two heads rushed out of the turquoise sea.
Zach opened his mouth in what seemed to be an inhalation motion, and his previously sunken cheeks seemed to be a little fuller. But his hairstyle has been completely ruined. Well, that's not the point.
The point is, Zach turned his head and found the direction of the land over there, he frowned on the water droplets, the back of his head was facing the horizon with the sky, looking at the man-made structure estimated two kilometers away, "Is it the southeast?"
This is a very unfamiliar perspective for Zach, please forgive Zach's questioning tone.
"It's the Southeast. Molman, whose complexion, at least on the surface of the sea, had regained his wheat color, replied, "That's not all, it's just that I've collected it." ”
Collect strange words.
Zach's face was already very bad, he thought of something, No, Sgaugh, the warehouse in the woods of the West End, who had not contacted him, had just come over and saw the busy police station...... It's all messy stuff that inexplicably appeared in Zack's head.
The head on the surface of the water flicked, and the salt water rolled small waves, and finally entered Zack's mouth. Zach forcibly comforted himself irritably, and he didn't see any big news in the newspaper these days.
"When I was looking for this, the police found me and I was taken to the police station. "The chief of the police station talked to me personally, and after signing a non-disclosure agreement that he would never say, he was notified that he could be released on bail. ”
Zach grimaced, "Send me back." (To be continued......)
