In the morning, the Church of the Holy Child was already open, and there was a coffin under the altar, and inside the open lid was the expired old Mr. Donna. Well, it doesn't seem like a good way to describe this deceased person like that, but who is to blame, the funeral has dragged on for too long.

The funeral hasn't really begun, it's just the open door stage...... Hey, another irreverent description, but it's true. Obviously, Mr. Donna Sr. is a highly respected figure in the West End, and there are no people on the invitation list, so he can't attend the official ceremony, so he can only come to see him for the last time, and there are many such people.

In front of the church, the small trucks used by the farmers came and went, and after entering the church, they took turns placing a bouquet of flowers in front of the coffin, saying some words of blessing in the name of faith to the pale face in the coffin, and then going back where they came from. At most, lingering, chatting with the staff who helped with the volunteer phase of the funeral, was taken to Mrs. Donna Sr. to express condolences.

It's autumn, and the farmers in the southern district are very busy.

I'm sorry, I can't really respect this funeral. No matter what, the funeral is good, we care about other things.

For example, Wes, who had just sent off a farmer, did not continue his work as a funeral volunteer, and went straight to the owner of the funeral home, Zack, who was obviously holding the funeral but was late.

I need to explain that although Zach is late, it doesn't matter, Matthew, Danny, and even Old Hank (Donna's family and Old Hank are old acquaintances, and when he accepted the commission to delay the funeral, Zach accepted it because of Old Hank) were all present, and it didn't matter if Zack came to this funeral or not. Like us, he didn't care about the funeral.

"Didn't James come with you?" Zach asked casually, smiling at Wes.

Zach had already seen Jason, who was also volunteering, walking to the back hall of the church with an unknown farmer, presumably to see Mrs. Donna Sr. Except for Jason and Wes. Zach also saw the Inheritors, the Cliffs, and some of the guys at their wedding (these were the children of the orphanage, and Mr. Donna Sr. was the dean, the former dean). But obviously, they're ready to pretend they don't know Zach, uh. Some of them really didn't know each other, and Zach didn't make any new friends at that wedding.

"He doesn't know these people, what are they doing? Wes pouted, and replied rather casually, "That." He frowned, "James, well...... How many days is he going to stay at my house?"

That's a ...... Unexpected problem. Zach raised an eyebrow and looked at the guy in front of him, "Why did you ask me? I didn't ask him to go to you." ”

"Isn't it? Wes looked around. Gestured slightly, walked to the corner with Zack, and lowered his voice, "Didn't you ask me to let me help use the resources of the Southern District Police Department to check the notes on that draft." ”

Draft?Zach reacted for a moment before remembering that he was referring to the original fax. Speaking of which, it's quite speechless, Zach didn't even get this original. James hijacked it directly from Alice.

"Nope. Zach wasn't going to carry the pot, "I didn't ask him to do anything." He's going to find you himself. ”

"Uh......" Wes tugged at the corners of his mouth, shaking his head, "it doesn't matter, when will he return to Grande." ”

"Back to Grande. Zach repeated Wesquire's words, curling the corners of his mouth, "I don't know." I don't even know if he left with his luggage, but I found out afterwards. What's wrong? He's living with you, what's the problem?"

"Yes. Almost instinctively, but Weis, who was immediately frowning, shook his head, "It's not uh......" It's too obvious that he wanted to hide it. "Just a little inconvenient. His brows furrowed even tighter, and he looked back at the direction in which Jason had disappeared, "Jason is staying with me, plus Jaime, my family is very small, well, it's inconvenient, like this." ”

Zach smiled gossipily, "Oh, does Jason live with you?"

"Yes. That's the answer.

Zach egged on something with a provocative brow.

"What do you mean by looking at me like that. Wes's eyebrows were about to disappear, and people who thought they had secrets were like that, he tried to explain, "Jason's house has been ransacked, the landlord has kicked him out, and he needs a bed before he can find a new house...... Couch. ”

Zach is the kind of naïve guy who knows that the other party is avoiding something, and keeps tempting, isn't it? So Zach withdrew his encouraging expression and just smiled. But Wes mentioned something unexpected, "Jason's home, the original house was ransacked? He, is it okay?"

"It's fine. Wes seemed a little impatient, "Forget him on alert, he came to the South Side in advance." ”

Zachic thought about it for a moment and guessed, "Is it the remnants of the fight club?"

"Yes. Wes nodded, "After James and his partner Detective Cousson made such a big news, I accompanied Jason back to take a look, and I should have found Jason's residence before they retaliated against the police station, but fortunately, Jason avoided it, and the group of people should have been annoyed and angry, so they went all out to attack the police department and James." The case has been reported and closed in the North End, and Jason is now completely safe, now just waiting for him to find a new house. ”

"That's good. Zach smiled and nodded, speaking of which, Jason's safety was also ignored by Zack. After all, he did everything he could after telling James all the news about the remnants of the fight club at that time, and Zach, as the owner of a funeral home in the South District, couldn't go to work as a bodyguard for an insurance salesman in the North District, "Well, as for James, hehe, he's just a month's vacation, nothing." Zach actually patted Wes on the shoulder, comforting?

Wes pouted, "Forget it, it doesn't matter. Shaking his head in complete renunciation, "By the way, that Sloane, uh...... When I brought him to the bureau, it was actually because of Jason's relationship. He was Jason's original landlord, and Jason hid in the Southside...... Forget it, you won't be interested, let's not talk about it. Wes waved his hand and continued, "But James mentioned it, Sloane is in your Grande, he has time to come out......"

Huh? Is Wes helping Jason find a house? Can't get James, he's trying to get Jason's mind faster? This guy is kind of funny.

"It's gone. Zack's gaze drifted away, still smiling, "I left early in the morning, well, probably not in Barton." "What do you mean by 'probably'. "Hehe, if Jason wants to rent a house with him, it's impossible. "Yes, yes, 'impossible' is absolute.

No one should be surprised. But the reason why Zach was late was because Zach had just come from the mill. After Lip was rescued. The body is to be sent for cremation. The last step that Zach could help with was now complete.

"Uh......" Wes noticed Zach's expression, "Forget it, I'm just asking." It's okay, I'm going over there. You're busy. ”

Zach nodded, watched Wes leave, and continued his reception, then turned his gaze to the back of the main hall. The funeral hadn't really begun, and Donna's family and official guests were waiting. It's also where Zach really needs to be 'busy'. Our vampire politely gave way to the people walking by and walked to the rear.

If the process is consistent with the arrangement. Before the funeral officially began, Donna's family and a lawyer all moved to a pre-prepared isolation room, while the main hall was cleared of non-guest visitors and allowed the guests to sit in the back.

The process hadn't yet begun, and Zach walked from the somewhat crowded main hall into the equally crowded back hall. Naturally, the first thing Zach saw was someone he knew, Mr. Green.

The middle-aged man seemed to be in a daze with a cup of unknown things in the corner, and the sorrow on his face was not concealed. At the funeral of a friend of equal status. It's normal to show sadness.

The son who had just committed suicide to Mr. Greene - Lip. Zack, who was sent to be cremated without his knowledge, and the remnants after cremation were probably casually sent by an employee sent by Madison to the sea to finish the work, and Zach did not intend to contact him.

Our vampire leaned against the wall, trying to stay out of Mr. Green's view. Purposefully walked to the deepest part, where Mrs. Quinn sits.

Even Amanda behind Mrs. Quinn saw Zach and gave a smile indistinctly, and Mrs. Quinn herself saw Zach and looked to one side. Signal to talk to a more intimate place...... Mr. Green saw Zach.

To be precise, it's noticed.

"Mr. Grande, you're late. Old Lady Donna stood in front of Zach and stared at Zach with a blank face, "The process has been delayed, shouldn't you do something?" You're going to let my husband be treated like a zoo animal outside and be watched as long as he wants. ”

Well, all eyes are on Zach, including Mr. Green, of course.

I don't want to say it, but it's also a process that is arranged. Zach just didn't expect Mrs. Donna Sr. to start at this time...... Performance.

"Sorry ma'am. Zach bowed slightly, apologetic, but his expression corresponded to that of Mrs. Donna, showing that he was not sincere at all, "In the arrangement of the funeral, Madame, you did not mention that there would be so many outsiders visiting, and Grande's preparation will naturally not be so adequate." ”

"Are you saying it's my fault?!" Old Lady Donna shook her body very 'dedicatedly', and of course, someone around her quickly held her up.

"I'm not saying anyone is at fault. Zach bowed again, "I'm just stating the facts, madam, you spent too much time thinking about the coffin, the cemetery, the guests, the ceremony, and I hope everything is perfect for your husband's funeral." But you are ignoring your husband, not only you and your family, but also these waiting friends......"

What the hell is Zach talking about!

“...... And it belongs to those people. Zach pointed behind him, "Madame should be glad for this situation, Mr. Donna's death is a regret for all those who are willing to come here today, Madame should not only care about the perfect funeral she has prepared, consider the significance of the arrival of those people outside, your husband will want to see such a situation." ”

Old Mrs. Donna shook her body again 'professionally', stared at Zach, and retracted her gaze for a while, "A quarter of an hour, I'll wait a quarter of an hour." At the end of this day, it is still my husband's funeral, and I don't want to affect my husband's funeral for the sake of those people outside. After speaking, she motioned to the person who was holding her to walk to the seat.

What's the point of this performance, he said later. Now-

Zach bowed his head slightly, waiting for the figure of Mrs. Donna Sr. to disappear from view before raising his gaze to meet Mr. Green, who kept giving him a look. Ay. Zach reluctantly stepped sideways, took a few detours, and then walked in the direction indicated by Mr. Green.

Avoiding the eyes of most people, Mr. Green hid behind a potted plant a little ridiculously, and lowered his voice, "Ge, Grande ...... first"

"Zach is fine. Zach lowered his voice in cooperation and glanced in Mrs. Quinn's direction. Mrs. Quinn had a puzzled look on her face, but she could only purse her lips and wait for Zach to finish.

"Za, Zach. I, I had a strange dream last night...... I, dreaming, my profit, Pu, I ......"

"Mr. Green. The other party's peculiar pause was so strange that Zack's interruption was impolite, "Do you have anything to say to me? Now?here?" Zach wanted to remind the other party that this was not suitable, because in the eyes of others, did Mr. Green and Zach know each other? No, the owner of the funeral home is not the kind of guy who only knows if he has a funeral, does the Green family have a funeral? In the eyes of others, no.

Speechless, Mr. Green shrunk behind the potted plant, as if it really had some effect, "That, I, I came early, I thought, I want to go to the cemetery to see, to see Lip, but yours, that, security, no, won't let me in......"

Zach pursed his lips, not knowing how to respond.

Without Zack's response, Mr. Green continued with a more sad face, "That, that, I, I'm not good at registering, you, you know, I said I just went to North Park, he, they weren't allowed to ......"

"Then don't go. Zach had no expression on his face and looked the other party in the eye, "Mr. Green, you should be aware that Grande was the one who took the risk when he first accepted your commission. I've done my best to even help you with a secret funeral, and I've allowed you to visit you a few times. Enough is enough, Mr. Green, since you know that you can't register with the security guards, then you should know very well that continuing like this is not good for you and for Grande, and it is time to let it go. ”

"Let ......" Mr. Green also looked at Zach with wide eyes, and when he could see his lost soul from the light green iris, his gaze was completely out of focus, "It's time to let go?"

Zach looked away and turned around, "That's it, Mr. Green, I wish you a nice day." "Gone.

Adjusting his mood as he made his way through the crowd, Zach looked back in Mrs. Quinn's direction. Mrs. Quinn gave her a reassuring look, 'Won't anyone else stop you?'

'No, it won't. Zach responded.

Mrs. Quin nodded slightly, got up from her seat, signaled a direction, and passed first, accompanied by Amanda.

Please don't think of Mrs. Quinn as Mr. Green's kind of funny, her conversation with Zach also needs privacy, and how can such two characters use a potted plant as a tool to provide privacy. (To be continued.) )
