"Where are you going?"
James walked directly to his car as soon as he got out of the [Time Elf], and as soon as he unlocked it, Zach sat in the back seat very consciously. To stop the vampire's speed, James couldn't do it yet.
James didn't answer, but crumpled the letter in his hand, threw it at Zach in disgust, didn't pay attention to this guy at all, started the car without saying a word, and seemed to turn with a clear purpose.
Zach was a little helpless, this opening was a little unexpectedly tangled, and James's rejection was erected too early that Zack was not what Zack wanted. Zach couldn't really blame the 'ponytail' waiter, tugging at the corners of his mouth and bending down to find the paper ball that had fallen into the sewn.
"What is this?" Zach was looking for a paper ball when he found a button under a seat.
James didn't answer with a gloomy face, and Zach raised an eyebrow, so he pressed it without hesitation.
"Oh~" Zach discovered the New World and snorted comfortably. From the seat to the back, there was something squirming and rubbing in the comfortable cushions.
Zach didn't feel comfortable for too long, and James glared fiercely at the unconscious vampire, shutting down the 'New World', "Don't get an inch!"
"Oh?" Zach grinned, unfolding his already wrinkled letter, "Did I get something?"
This conversation didn't even start, and I really don't know how James's psychology works. Maybe subconsciously think that the vampire owes him, so Zach is 'footing' no matter what he does.
James took his anger out on the innocent car in front of him, ignoring the early morning hours and rush hour traffic, all he could do was wait, and wilfully honked his horn.
Zach quickly stuffed the flattened letter into the middle of the steering wheel, and James slammed his hand to the horn again to stop. His gaze lingered on the handwriting in the letter for only a moment, and then he immediately turned away, grabbed the letter and crumpled it again.
I almost wanted to throw myself out of the window in anger, but I still had a trace of sanity, and this thing couldn't appear on the street, so I punched the steering wheel. Throw it at Zach again.
The first time it was defenseless, and this time Zach caught it. It's no more than three, the game can't be played anymore, and it's funny that James is so angry that he tears up the letter.
Zach unfolded the letter again, and began to read it in a way that James could no longer avoid.
"'Dear Toredo'. ”
Zach glanced at James, very good, the detective's forehead was bruised.
Go on.
"'I use the most formal name for you again!My idol!Do you know why?' because I'm so happy!Happy for my idol!You've got the island sigil (crossed out) reflection!I don't know how you did it!But my idol! I'm so happy! What a silver fan (crossed out) Secret Alliance. What a vampire cabinet (crossed out) Ghost Thirteen Clans! You've surpassed them! You're the best......"
Zach is not only restoring the tone of the letter, but also being faithful to the handwriting of the letter. The result of this can only be seen for the time being - the green tendons on James's forehead are getting tighter and tighter.
Zach continued, but the tone that followed was not so passionate. The biggest reason may be that there is no longer a sentence of 'who has bullied me', and the content has become full of self-blame and resentment.
"'I suppose I must have done something you didn't like, right?' you're no longer my 'hero', and those nasty people are still living there every day with their self-righteousness. Am I ashamed of you? You are so strong, and I am so weak. You can only ask for help from others. Can you give me a chance? I can prove myself......"
The contents of the letter began to go in a bad direction, and James could no longer suppress it. snatched the letter and threw himself on the steering wheel, his eyes shaking quickly from side to side, looking.
Zach's purpose was achieved, sitting safely in the passenger seat, occasionally reminding James. The car in front has moved, it's time to move forward.
Zach's danger to Benjamin at Grande is not purely selfish, and the meaning expressed in the letter is very vague about social danger.
The first is about how the other party knows about Zach's new skills. The thought of Grande being stared at by a guy that no one else noticed made the hair stand on end as Papa's midnight tape.
And then there's what makes James finally willing to read the letter now -- Zach is strong, and the letter writer is unilaterally trying to match Zack, his idol, with his power. He wants to 'prove'.
How can a vampire prove himself to be a proper worshipper? In Barton City, a very, very bad and extreme example happened not so long ago - Woody's mail-in blood vial.
'I'm a cop', I have to be right, finally made James sane again.
Oh no, it's early. James looked at it, the corners of his eyes twitched, he crumpled the letter again, pounded the steering wheel a few times in a rage, stared at Zach viciously, and clenched the letter into a ball without losing it, "I!" word by word, "No! whatever!
Don't forget that this early morning, Zach also had a not-so-pleasant start. So Zack's patience was limited, and he frowned at this time, "Don't you care? So what are you going to do, at this time to escape with Fitz and Benjamin to Comic Con." ”
It's ironic, Barton is in danger, and the detective runs away to play.
"Yes!" James admitted without hesitation, "What's the matter?!Crowley has returned, what can't I go!The case I want to investigate, my partner doesn't support it, my superiors don't support it!The police department doesn't support it!What else can I do!Why don't I go!"
Sure enough, this is the reason.
What could James do if he saw the hidden danger in the letter? He was just a human policeman, and the resources brought by his identity were stripped away by his identity at this time, what could he do?
That's something Zach can understand.
In addition, we also know that James can't even pass Emilia's level, and the limitations of human police are no longer something to talk about and think about, but a fact that has happened and been verified. So, please understand the irascible nature of James right now, he tried, failed, and that's it.
"I support. Zach pursed his lips and could only say that.
James replied with a 'tsk'.
Forget it, Zach waved his hand, leaving aside the malice of the early morning. Zach realized that there was no point in leaving James behind to delay the Comic Con trip in order to disgust Benjamin, and it didn't seem to do any good except to offend Benjamin a second time and force James to spoil him.
"So you're actually trying to relax?" Zach adjusted his feelings and smiled, "Then I wish you all a good day." ”
James seemed a little surprised by Zack's transformation, and the letter in his hand was tightened again, no longer lost, but stuffed back into Zack's hand, "Get out of the car! I'm going to the police station to hand over the work, I don't have time to care about you!"
Well, this is Zach self-inflicted, and no one is to blame. Zach looked at the slowly moving traffic in front and back helplessly, and pushed the door open.
"Find Amilia! She has a clue about the sender!" As Zack stumbled out of the car, James suddenly spoke, "Hmph! It's not for the police to get it anyway!
It seemed that Zack, who was disgusted by the words and wanted to turn back, moved too slowly, James stretched his body sideways, irritably pushed out Zack, who was still in the car, pulled back the car door hard, and closed it!
Zack stood in the middle of the stagnant traffic during the rush hour with a strange face, tugged at the corners of his mouth, and knocked on the roof of the car helplessly, which was regarded as saying thank you. (To be continued......)
