Chapter 15: The Reserved Man

Sleep is never a necessity for vampires, and unlike normal creatures, sleep in the ordinary sense is just a state that requires extra control to achieve.

Zach didn't like this very much, his body's blood flow slowed down, his heart rate decreased, and his senses became dull. If it's just like ordinary people get drunk, it's nothing. It's just that for vampires, such sluggishness requires extra control to maintain, just as people who stay up late forcibly want to stay high at nights when they should be resting, vampires are the opposite, and they consume more energy.

So once in a while, Zach would really 'sleep'. We should give Louise some credit for her receptivity. Either you wake up with no one around you, or you wake up with a handsome 'corpse' by your side.

This time, Louise is trying to wake up the 'corpse'.

Zach seems to have developed a habit of sleeping during the full moon cycle in his ongoing friendship with Benjamin. Last month was an accident, and Ian's presence temporarily interrupted the habit.

Louise looked at Zach lying on the bed in a daze, not breathing, and her body was as cold as a stone. She hesitated and shouted, "Zach, James is here." Zach, can you hear me?"

No response.

Louise frowned, as an adult, she knew very well that the combination of relationships and cohabitation would cause some problems, such as the 'truth' hidden from outsiders. It's just that usually, this pen fun pavilion www.biquge.info start with the woman's makeup removal, but Louise's congenital conditions are too good for this to happen, so the task of maintaining the normal direction of this relationship falls to Zack.

Louise took a deep breath and bit her lower lip, well, this path was chosen by herself, then the 'corpse' in front of her was part of Zach, and she had to accept him!

"Zach! get up!" Louise slapped Zach in the face.

Louise felt Zach's chest move.

"Are you awake?"

Something was turning under Zack's eyelids. A low, hoarse 'hmm' came from Zach's throat.

"James is here, waiting for you in your office. ”

Zach opened his eyes slowly, and he could even see the dilated pupils focusing.

"He seemed to be in a bad mood. ”

Zach pressed the bed, sat up, blinked his eyes, moved his shoulders up and down, his legs bent and stretched back and forth, slowly adjusting to his stiff body.

"James is a nice guy, don't be too him. ”

Zach put on a crooked smile on his still stiff face, and his voice was still a little abnormal, "Since when will you help him speak?"

The corners of Louise's eyes curled under her eyelashes, "From the moment I have a legitimate vocation." ”

Ordinary citizens, speaking for a police officer, what a 'normal thing'.

Zach spreads a smile on the other half of his face, and Louise ends the conversation with a point that is always pleasant.

Zach took the bottle from Louise, but Louise didn't open it. Blood, beyond the vampire's grasp, that's blood. Only this, Louise could not yet overcome.

"I'm going to help Alice in the kitchen. Louise pulled her hair and prepared to leave.

"What time is it now?" Zach frowned, he thought it was noon now.

"It's just early in the morning. Louise was already standing by the door, and finally turned her head, smiling and leaving a smile, "That's why you don't have to be too harsh." ”

Therefore, James really came with love, and no one wanted to choose to visit and be visited early in the morning.

Zach unscrewed the bottle, not in a hurry, but slowly preparing, waiting for the senses to return. At the same time, thinking about James's intentions, the most direct thought was that the detective was harassed by Crowley again.

It wasn't until everyone was seated in Grande's dining room and Alice brought a breakfast to the office that Zach came down slowly.

"You're a little early, James Lance, what do you think?" Zach walked into the office, the bottle still in his hand, and as he sat back at his desk, he threw himself up, his throat rolling to mean he was swallowing.

"Don't talk about ......it," James put down the sandwich he had bitten into, "don't talk about it! you ......"

Zach stretched out his hand to stop James's words, and the look on James's face was full of disgust for the other party's words, "Have you forgotten that today is the first day of the full moon cycle." ”

James was stunned, he did forget about it, but he couldn't blame him, he didn't have any real feelings about this cycle that vampires and werewolves should pay attention to.

"What's wrong with this, it looks normal at a glance. James stared at the square metal bottle that was placed on the table with a soft clatter, apparently empty.

Zach watched James' gaze fall on what was supposed to be an ordinary statement that turned into sarcasm.

"Be careful, James. Zach didn't have his usual smile, "Our conversation has started a very bad way. ”

James's gaze moved up, looked at Zack's expressionless face, frowned, he sensed, Zach was not in a good mood, as for what reason, God knows!

"Well, it's me who is bad. James looked away, "But do you think I'd like to come to you at this time?"

"What's the matter. Zach asked bluntly, kind of accepting Louise's advice. The last time James visited in the full moon cycle, Zach taught him a hard lesson, this time, it was really not that necessary, James had improved a lot compared to that time.

"Crowley!" as expected, James's expression was filled with deep disgust. Zach knew that if it wasn't for Grande who saved him, he would have been like this to Grande, and it can only be said that Crowley did not have a good beginning, and did something that James couldn't bear, and was unlucky to be ostracized.

"Why did you throw the case to Crowley!" James glared at Zach, "I sued you, I don't want anything to do with her!"

Zach still had no expression on his face, but he was very happy in his heart.

This kind of atmosphere is deliberately pretended by him, to be honest, he is a little uncomfortable with James after being treated equally, and the consistent way of communication can no longer control James this guy, because he can already fight back.

So Zach put on a pose first, don't mess with me, and then, well, watch the show.

Louise said yes, James Lance, a very nice guy.

First of all, he has a heart for Akagi, so he cares about whose hands his case is placed on. Although he himself has said countless times, 'You do your work, I do mine', but at this time, he is still worried about the 'work' that does not belong to him.

Then, he has a prejudiced heart, so he cares again, and his case is put in the hands of a guy he doesn't trust!

"You don't need to have a relationship with her. Zach seemed impatient, "I think you police already have a first suspect, don't you? For you, this case is over, you don't have to worry about what Crowley is going to do." ”

There are indeed suspects, and the context of the case is very clear.

On Sunday, the morning of the usual service, Crawley's men did not seem satisfied with preaching the faith only in the church, and they went out of the church to preach to those who did not have the habit of worship. This ancient method of preaching on the street is only used by Crowley, a guy who doesn't know what era it is.

Modern pastors rarely lobbied around to preach except for fundraising and special moments.

And the priest who died, the man in charge of Ogier Street, did not need to trouble the medical examiner when he was killed, and when the tragic cry alarmed the people around him, someone reported the crime. The murderer was also very clearly pointed out, the homeless man.

James and Cowson's visit was only to gather more information about the homeless man, but the reality was that people really didn't care about a homeless man, or the people who lived on Ogier Street.

The implication here is that they have no extra kindness to understand, and no extra malice to reject. The homeless man is just a neighbor without a roof to them, and he is there, or not, and he has no energy to care about his busy life.

James frowned, he wanted to say something but couldn't exactly use words to express it, just like the label of **, the diaphragm should be on the skin, and it couldn't be pulled out on the spot to lose it, which made people irritated.

"Anyway, I don't want Crowley to have anything to do with this!" said James after a long time, but it was useless, "and she came to my attic early this morning and asked for a sketch of the suspect. ”

"Then give it to her. Zach knocked on the table impatiently, "You don't want to deal with her, so hurry up and send her away, why waste time here?"

James looked at Zach with a gloomy face, "Don't you understand? she's pretending! Does she think I'm going to change my mind about her by asking for it myself?

Zach didn't hold back, but still raised an eyebrow. James was much more sensible than he thought, and he could see Crowley's thoughts. Just like Zach back then, James is a very important resource in Patton City. Especially when Anthony cuts off the opportunity for Crowley to try to develop in the upper echelons, the resources of this detective are even more important!

So Crowley will naturally find a way to win over James, but well, with James's character who only responds to shocking education, Zach can only wish Crowley good luck.

Does Crowley need to find a police detective herself for a portrait? Barton City, there's no place she can't go. She will abide by human etiquette, and there is no other reason than to want to progress the relationship!

James took out a crumpled piece of paper from his pocket, threw it on his desk, and glared at Zack, "I know! I can't stand up to her! But you have! This is a sketch! You dispose of it! If you still have to give it to Crowley, that's your business!" I ......" James paused for a moment, and finally didn't say anything he didn't want to admit, "I don't trust her!"

Watching James leave the office with an angry look, Zach finally put away his somewhat numb face and curled the corners of his mouth.

James, what a reserved guy.
