12 Herman

When Grande's van returned, the trunk was full of corpses dragged back from Bishop Manor.

The driver was Danny the Phantom, and Zach was in the passenger seat looking through the information provided by Bishop.

The security personnel materials of the original Bishop Manor are no longer among them, these will be provided by the security company alone, and the bodies are not included in the bodies of these servants brought back by Zack, because they are involved in the disappearance of the security company, and the evidence related to Bishop suing the security company, they were temporarily detained by the North District Police Station where James is located as evidence.

But don't worry, the time of death of those security guards coincides with the time of Schelle's 'departure', and there is no need for Zach to do anything with the Eyes of Enchantment, and the timing of this time can already be used as evidence, at least to make Bishop withdraw the lawsuit.

Speaking of which, James solved an inconsequential small case, and by the way, solved a big case that made the big man need to be handled in a low-key manner.

The information in Zack's hand is the data file of the former Bisharp servant, including the number of years of employment, the contact information of relatives, etc. Zach discovers with malice that the servants around Bishop alone can provide for all the affairs of an ordinary manor.

The servant who was shown this time was someone close to Bisharp, who died. Zack's arrangement was not in conflict before - the people around Schell were still alive and had all been resigned, and the dead servant on the old Bishop side, under the influence of the Enchanting Pupil, was sent out of Barton for retirement with all his relatives, and it had nothing to do with Barton (if it is related is a story for a later story).

Zach didn't dare to be interested in superfluous things, and only marked and wrote down some contact information, which was quick to turn over. As Grande drove from the southeast of the manor to the Southside, just past the former Grande cemetery in the West End, Zach turned to the last few pages.

"Hey. Zach sighed suddenly.

"What's wrong?" Danny asked, gripping the steering wheel.

Zach looked at the last few pages of information. "This is a one-time work contract, ten days ago, Bisharp Manor hired a couple of cleaning ladies in the North District, and the job content was very vaguely written, 'cleanup', and the honorarium was more than 200 dollars an hour......"

Zach shook his head. Do you remember, that day, Zach originally went to the North End with the purpose of going to find the author of an article in "Urban Legends", and was interrupted by trivial things along the way, passively accepting all kinds of news and information that he felt indifferent, including encountering this part of his mother's work at Brian's house. (Vol. XX, Chapter 7)

Danny raised an eyebrow, surprised, "More than 200 an hour, richer than Sharp." Danny didn't seem to realize what Zach was talking about.

Zach flipped straight to the end. Look at the signature of the person providing the worker, different handwriting represents different people. Zach pursed his lips, he still saw Brian's mother's name. Judgment made early on, Zach was right.

Zach shook his head and glanced at the back compartment, where one of the bodies in the bag belonged to Brian's mother. Which one it is, Zach doesn't know. It needs to be mentioned. There are far more bodies found in Sharp Manor than is officially recorded. Thanks to Zack's Enchanting Pupil at Bisharp Manor for the past two days, the extra part will not exist in any records. The bodies of the old Bishop and his wife were inside.

"When you go back, you're going to check the body in the back. Zach said flatly, he was thinking.

"I know. Danny nodded, "I'll take out the bodies of the old Bishop and his wife separately, and you'll see what to do with them when the time comes. Or just dispose of it), and those extra servants, I'll deal with it secretly. "Danny has been very cooperative with Zach as always.

Zach pursed his lips, admiring Danny's 'sweetness' while he was actually thinking about how to say this to Brian. "There will be a few more. Zach shook his head again and frowned, "Brian's mother is also inside, and it is stored separately for the time being. ”

Danny was stunned for a moment, then immediately returned to normal and nodded.

Zach closed the information in his hand and looked out the window at the receding scene, more than half of the afternoon had passed, but the days were always longer in the middle of summer, and it was a bright scene outside.

"Ugh. Zach actually had an irritated look and let out an irritated 'uh' that was rarely heard from a vampire's mouth.

"You, well, are you going to tell Brian? Danny asked tentatively, looking a little weird, as if he wanted to ask more than that.

"Tell him, of course. Zach tugged at the corners of his mouth, "In the past, it could be regarded as none of my business, but now, the person (corpse) is in Grande, and it has nothing to do with me to continue to pretend, I can't do it yet." ”

"So, how will Brian react?" Danny asked cautiously, "will you send him away?" or ......

Zach raised his hand and interrupted, "I'm still thinking." Zach obviously didn't want to continue the conversation, "What about Willie, his mother doesn't have to go to work at the manor, and I didn't get her involved in the current matter, does he forgive you?" ”

Danny's expression changed to a strange one, "Sort of." Kindness...... Did you see that? Danny tilted his head, his gaze pointing at the Indians who still seemed to be camping in the woods. That's right, this guy is also changing the subject!

Zach glanced at it, just in time to meet Corden, who was looking at him, and pulled the corners of his mouth, "I saw it in the morning, who knows what they are doing." Too lazy to care. ”

Danny let out an oh and continued driving.

I don't know if it's the embarrassment caused by the two people in the car who have changed the topic, the next journey, Danny speeded up, Zach didn't have an opinion, didn't let the guests in the Grande wait too long, Zach finally went home.

Ignoring Austin, who was smiling all over his face and trying to curry favor, Zach only gave him a finger to remind the construction boss that today was the last of the three days he had promised.

I also know if it's an illusion, but the clanging bell in Grande is more intense.

Zach didn't check the progress of the construction team, went directly up the stairwell to the second floor, entered the office, was stunned for a moment, and finally took a "sir" in a puzzled and disrespectful tone of "Herman......." ”

Louise immediately stood up in front of the workbench, and there was a look of complaint in her eyes, who asked Zach not to answer her phone at Bishop Manor, but her job was nothing to say, and immediately began to introduce, "Mr. Herman has been waiting for a long time. It seems that there are important things that are not suitable for the message. This one is also Mr. Herman, the younger brother of Mr. Herman. Louise frowned and finished the tongue-twisting introduction, nodded, and withdrew.

Zach walked leisurely to the bookcase as usual and pulled out a bottle of wine. Pour it on yourself, and shake it in front of the two Herman gentlemen, "Do you want some, my treasure......?"

Zach sat leisurely behind his desk and sipped his wine with a smile, "Mr. Herman's face must not be interested in my 'gentle' appearance here." What about this Mr. Herman?"

Zach hypocritically waited for the other party to answer. Of course, as soon as the other party spoke, Zach took the lead, "Oh! Oh, I saw that the car outside didn't seem to have a driver, this Mr. Herman was going to drive." I'm such a terrible host, please don't mind when I didn't say it. ”

The bottle of 'wine' was in Zack's hand. Don't even want to touch anyone!

Mr. New Herman pursed his lips and lowered his head with a not very good face. Although Zach is also curious about how Herman suddenly has a younger brother. But looking at the state of the two, now is obviously not a good time to ask. In fact, what made Zach most curious was that Herman would actually come to Grande.

Remember, the last time Herman came, Zach directly used the Charm Pupil to make Herman, who was also drunk at the time, say a lot of things that he shouldn't have said! Among them, Zach later directly told Mayor Anthony -- Herman blew up his own factory! Moreover, there is Mayor Anthony's ex-wife, Anthony's rival in this mayoral election, Ethera. Something to do with it!

Zach shook his glass, "Mr. Herman." The gaze swept over the faces of the two Herman gentlemen, it was indeed a bit similar, but the age gap seemed to be a bit large, Herman was in his sixties. The younger brother looked to be only about fifty years old, "Is there anything wrong with visiting Grande again?" I personally supervised the work reports at the mill, so there shouldn't be any problems." ”

The opening remarks of the previous work were a good way to start the conversation, and Zach had a smile on his face, "But if I can, I hope that the balance of your payment can be paid to the mill as soon as possible." This cooperative mill has recruited many short-term workers temporarily, and their wages are temporarily paid by me. ”

Herman sat down across the desk with a flushed face and waved his hand loudly, "Hmph, will you Grande be short of money?!Hmph! You'll get the balance of your money!"

Zach tilted his head, "Isn't Mr. Herman here for this?" Zach smiled and adjusted his sitting posture, leaning forward, with a bit of deliberate mystery, "So, is there anything else Mr. Herman 'doing' that needs Grande's help?"

It has nothing to do with the funeral industry, then Grande can only have something to do with the gray profession, and Zach is using words and half-tentative, half-flirtatious-Herman.

"Don't be weird with me!" Herman glared at Zack with red eyes from alcohol, "It's not me who has a problem, it's him who has a problem!" He pointed to his brother, Mr. New Herman, "I've brought all the people, so I don't have to mess around with the words! Hmph! I'm just introducing people!"

"Oh. Zach smiled and continued to shake his glass, "Then can I refuse, the last time you introduced Quest's work, sir, it was not a good experience for us Grand." Zach glanced at Mr. New Herman, who seemed uncomfortable all over, and put on a sincere smile, "Don't mind, since Mr. is already here, he naturally knows the nature of Grande's work, and the personality of some employers is really not suitable for commissioning, I am just expressing the truth." ”

"I ......"

"If you don't do it, you have to do it!" Herman interrupted his brother directly, "You Grande owe me!"

Zach still had a smile on his face, "Help me remember, what do I owe you?"

"You!" Herman suddenly stood up from his chair and pointed at Zack, his whole body trembling, and then, thinking that he was going to do something out of bounds to Zack, the family suddenly turned around, faced his brother, and roughly pulled Mr. New Herman up and pushed him out, "You get me out! Get out!!"

Zach smiled as he looked at the ridiculous actions of the two men across the desk, and said to himself that it was the worst expression he'd ever seen, 'we need some personal space.'

The door to the office slammed shut after Mr. New Herman was pushed out, and Herman turned to look at Zach, his eyes blazing, "Do you need me to warn me?!Why did the mayor find me?! Ask me about Ethera! Why did the mayor set up a secret investigation team to go around my place all day to find out the real cause of the factory explosion?!Why did the mayor 'remind' me openly and secretly that Barton couldn't tolerate me anymore!"

"Are you asking me?" Zach looked innocently at the angry Herman, "how would I know?" ”

"You don't know?!" Herman rushed towards Zack, blocked by the corner of his desk, "You don't know who knows!Only you know the truth!Could it be that Aethra herself told the mayor!" Herman's anger seemed to shift slightly to himself, "What did I think about that time?!Why did I tell you everything!" He glared at Zach again, "Why did I tell you everything!"

The answer, of course, is that Zach used the Eye of Charm on him. But-

"Because you were drunk, of course. Zach tilted his head sideways, looking helpless, "Just like now." Don't you know the phrase 'drunken gaffes,' and do you think I like to hear your conspiracy theories? Zach shook his head, playing a helpless role, "Aethra has taken over your business hostilely, and you have blown up your own factory. Zach pouted, "What a wonderful story." "Sarcasm.

"You admit it!!" Herman's eyes almost burst into flames, "it's you! You're the one who told the mayor these things!"

"Probably. Zach waved his hand, "I think it's no secret that the mayor has a little friendship with Grande (earlier, Anthony deliberately arranged and made it public, and he and Grande had some care because of Benjaminde's crocodile veterans). Maybe when we chat, I slipped it out as a 'story'. Zach shrugged his shoulders and looked at Herman, "What's going on? I still don't think that saying that some drunken guy might have made up a random story would make Grande owe you something." ”

Zach narrowed his eyes and looked at Herman with deep meaning, "After all, I said, for the sake of my own selfish desires and reputation, blow up my own factory, and let more than a hundred lives become necessary for this kind of thing, I really don't want it to be Barton's own logo company, Herman did it, right." ”

Herman took a few steps back, his anger plummeted, and he staggered towards the workbench, his whole body softened, and he was silent for a long time, and he said, "It doesn't matter, I'm leaving Barton......"

Zach withdrew his gaze and shook his head calmly.

Maybe he shouldn't have dealt any more blows to Herman, who was embarrassed at this time, he was pitiful enough. Remember, after Ryan, no, Herman's son Connor, died, he was leaving Patton. It's just that the way he is about to leave now has become a sad end. (To be continued......)
