14 Dog, general

Almost instantaneously, countless flashes of light appeared around Zack, and the light and shadow that didn't know where it happened were contained by these flashes and thrown here. It's a bit like a TV, can you imagine that the frame of the TV and the screen are all removed, and only the picture is playing...... This feeling.

I remember when we talked about Nophil's abilities, we talked about Nophil's control of shadows, but in fact, they just borrowed some places that had not been illuminated by the light, shadows, right? Well, it's no surprise that the sunlit place is borrowed, right-

The illuminated image of Rutte Lesenbra was transmitted to Zack. In all aspects, Root's face, Root's side face, Root's back of the head......

In the picture, he gestures to Nick, who is almost embedded in Zach's body, - withdraw.

"What!" Nick shouted at a picture.

In the picture, Root moved his mouth and obviously said something, but the light borrowed by Revro was obviously not responsible for transmitting the sound. The devil knows what he said.

Then, the flashes rushed down the balcony, one by one, towards Cappadocia, who was still tense underneath. The same gesture, withdraw.

Then, everyone, light and shadow, disappear. Zach was the only one left on the balcony. Oh, and there's a shot of Zach recording it all.

"What just happened?" said the young dog.

Zach straightened up the wrinkled clothes that Nick was 'hugging' and looked under the balcony to see that Cappadocia was gone, "I guess, my protection was terminated." ”

"Where's Nick?" the dog's camera panned around.

Zach pointed in a direction, "Running, being left behind." "Giovanni is the slowest of the thirteen clans.

"He's gone too?" the dog brother just confirmed.

"Apparently. Zach raised an eyebrow, left the balcony and went back to the house, seemingly looking around the room without a goal, "The surveillance of me seems to be ......"

Rivro also left. ”

Ha, the Cappadocia butler who didn't say a word, he spoke!

The guy was already wearing a coat that was obviously going out, and he was carrying a suitcase in his right hand, and looked at Zack, "The light that is being paid attention to by Refro is a little different from ordinary light, which only Revro can detect. ”

Zach smiled at the butler who seemed to be saying goodbye to thisβ€”judging by the attire, "And you used to be Refro." Do you still have the ability to judge in this area?"

"It's not as absolute, but it doesn't feel wrong. They all left. Bowing his head and raising the brim of his hat, "Now, I'm leaving, too." ”

"Lesembra doesn't even have a butler for me?" Zach shook his head with a smile.

The butler didn't respond anymore, and turned around with his suitcase.

"Just curious, if I really summoned Cappadocia to go with me, would you go with me?"

The butler's footsteps stopped for a moment, then landed normally and continued to leave, "Yes." "Gone.

So far. Zach is at the Feast and free.

I don't know how long this freedom will last. So, hold on.

"Where are we going?"

"Hospital. ”

"What are you going to do?"

This conversation takes place as Zach pushes his dog brother into the car.

"Look for General Lance. ”

"What are you looking for him??Wait a minute, I need that spare battery!"

......

The ensuing conversation takes place with Zach behind the wheel and controlling the multi-ton iron sheet as it moves through Vega City.

"I, I didn't understand...... Are you saying that this is something that Lesembra asked the clan to look into at the Demon Feast?"

"Yes. ”

"You made it clear to them that you weren't going to help them, but now, they're no longer protecting you (Cappadocia's departure), watching (Rifro's leaving) you, and even, when you're friends (Nick is gone), you're going to help?"

Zach was very satisfied with Brother Dog's statement of facts, "Yes~"

"Why???Who are you doing it for??"

"Hehe, myself~"

......

After that, the scene hasn't changed much, and Zach is still behind the wheel, driving through Vega City.

"You're lost. Brother Dog pointed out the reality mercilessly.

"I didn't. Zach slowed down in front of the intersection, swiping his gaze forward, left and right, and finally chose to go straight.

Brother Dog deliberately waited for Zach to cross the intersection, "You're definitely lost, the hospital is in that direction." Pointing to Zach's missed left turn.

Zach glanced at the dog, "Why didn't you say it earlier?"

"When the judgment becomes reality, you can't argue with it. Brother Dog looked at Zach and replied as a matter of course.

Zack, with a kind face, "Oh, brother dog, grow up quickly~"

Zach, very much like this descendant booking~

......

The scene is still the same, Zach is still in control of the steering wheel, but don't worry, Zach is steadily approaching his destination.

β€œ...... That's why you take those 'parent' stuff. The conversation had been going on for a while, and Brother Dog shrugged, "I guess I don't define 'mine' or 'mine' in the same way they define 'mine,' things. ”

No need to repeat, just summarize -

Brother Dog explained that the reason why he kept being rejected by foster families was that every time he was sent to a family, initially, those parents would be ...... Well, politely, or rather, try to be a good parent and tell the dog, 'This is your home, ours, it's yours.'" ’

In fact, this is understandable, orphans in the system will not have something of their own. The meaning of adoption is that the orphan becomes a member of the family and has something of his own. Those parents say this kind of thing, just to make the new child feel a sense of belonging sooner.

Well, well. Brother Dog really treats everything he can touch as his own.

"There are some things I don't really understand. Brother Dog continued, this topic was brought up by Zack - in expressing his affection, it is necessary to understand how Brother Dog grew up like this, "Why don't the children who were successfully adopted in the past come back." They get the parents, and what the parents give them, and they forget that their original 'home' and a bunch of children have nothing. ”

Zack: "So you take your 'parents' stuff and give it to your friends who are orphans. ”

"Yes. Brother Dog gave an affirmation, and added, "At first like this, then, I was just retaliating." ”

"Revenge?"

"Yes. I began to realize that every 'parent' would deliberately prevent me from intersecting with my former life. I understood that they didn't want me to continue to remember that I was not part of the family. But, that's what they think, not what I think. So, if they stop it, I will retaliate. The dog brother pouted, "I used to only occasionally take some toys and give them to my former friends. After that, I just took my watch, wallet, makeup ...... and looked at Zack, "what can annoy parents who say it's all mine, but restrict me from using my things freely." ”

"These. Zach lifted a finger, "These are the behaviors you need to grow up and then become aware of childishness, not doing ~ typical pre-adult rebellion~"

"I know. Brother Dog nodded.

This is a dialogue in which the two sides have reached a wonderful consensus~

......

"I hate hospitals. "Zach and Brother Dog are already on their way to General Lance's exclusive hospital room. Zach was expressing his opinion about the hospital, "My race should have a natural dislike for hospitals. Do you understand? ”

"Probably. Brother Dog responded, "But I don't like hospitals myself." ”

"Oh?"

"Every time you are adopted, well, no, you have to be sent in for an inspection, and those who are considering adoption like to make sure that the child they want to adopt is clean. ”

Zach tilted his head, "Understandable. ”

"It's just that sometimes you think you're a piece of meat, you know, anyone can flip it. ”

This is where the conversation turns.

"I'm curious. Zach looked sideways at Brother Dog, "Why are you worried about the future of humanity with this experience?"

To tell the truth, the dog brother should hate human nature. His life began as an orphan, didn't he? You know, abandoned, for whatever reason.

"What about you? Were you ever a person who grew up in a happy environment?"

Zach smiled, "Hehe, no. In my time, the population exceeded the number of resources that could sustain it, and no matter what people did, they could not prevent themselves from falling into famine. Then, I was sold by a man who was trying to get a job to make ends meet. ”

"Huh. Brother Dog pouted, "Then why are you asking me this question?" ”

yes, why did Zach ask~

The pace of progress was stopped by soldiers in military uniforms.

"Tell the General that I'm Zachary Grande. ”

The soldiers didn't drive.

"Tell the general that I have news of his son. ”

The soldier moved.

Soon returned, taking Zach to the hospital room. However, the dog's camera is stuffed into the trash.

To Zack's relief, Brother Dog didn't say anything as boring as 'you'll regret it'.

General Lance was no different from the previous meeting, except that Zach had apparently interrupted something going on, and Zach went into the house and some guy in military uniform went out.

"What do you hear, Torredo. "General Lance didn't ask for his son's information first.

"Didn't hear anything. "This is the truth, the sound insulation effect of the wards here, so good that it explodes, is obviously a reality created only by the general environment in the west.

General Lance nodded with satisfaction, "Did you find James?" ”

"Nope. "Zach doesn't have any news of James, only, "The phantom I hired hasn't contacted me yet." ”

General Lance's face changed a little, looking at the dog brother who was obviously a stranger to him, and then at Zack, "You hired a phantom man." To express the inconceivable emotion of repetition, "Phantom people, soul aliens." ”

"yes. Zach replied, of course, "It's free and easy to use." ”

General Lance was taking a deep breath.

There's no need for Zach to listen to General Lance talk about his 'false worldview' in the West here, "Soul aliens don't irritate Dale because he can't see them." "The discussion about Dell's inability to adapt has been going on enough to be repeated," likewise, not to frighten James, hehe, because James can't see it either. Do you understand what I say?"

OK. General Lance's breathing calmed down a bit, but his expression didn't improve, and he didn't continue to look at Zach, "You seem to know my son better than I do." ”

"Huh. Yes. Then he raised his hand and made a gesture to stop. This means that the topic of James is over, and the main topic begins, "Vampires have begun to find out that humans are actively replacing their organs, do you have anything to explain to me?" ”

General Reims's face did not change. Yes, it's a human general, but he only glanced at Zach, "I don't know what you're talking about. ”

"Do you want to report the number of upper-class humans who have undergone organ transplants during this time? Zach glanced at the screen of instruments attached to General Lance.

This famous general has obviously not been able to master the beating rate of his new heart~ This is a joke, can you receive laughter~ It is impossible for humans to control their heartbeat, so the number in Zack's eyes is constantly soaring.

Zach looked back at General Lance, who could only control his facial expression, from the screen with a smile in his eyes, "Look, why bother, you're just making jokes~"

General Lance closed his eyes and thought about something, "Well, how much do you know. ”

"Except for the human being who are abnormally performing organ transplants, there is none. Zach once again exposed the contents of the Demon Feast meeting, "Lesembra's intelligence network has discovered this anomaly and has assigned each clan ancestor to investigate these transplanters. And you, were assigned to me. ”

"Hmph. Because of James' relationship with you?"

No need to answer, it's too obvious.

General Lance shook his head, "Not everyone wants to give up their human identity and become vampires and start immortality. ”

Zach glanced at Brother Dog, frowned and began to think. It is to understand the meaning of General Lance's somewhat inexplicable words.

As a result, it was the dog brother who understood before Zack-

"I think he was trying to say that he wanted to keep the grace and name that humans could give him for a while longer. Brother Dog saw General Lance's gaze, and was even more sure of his own judgment, "After all, you are a human general, and becoming a vampire means that you have to give up the name of 'general'." ”

Zach picked up the conversation and looked at the general, "You've been predestined to be a descendant of some vampire?"

"Yes, a Lesenbra 4th generation. ”

Zach roughly understood, people are on people, and the final immortal form can't even be a vampire among vampires, 4 generations?heh, which means that this general will become a fifth-generation Lesenbra, in the colonial war, is the kind of cannon fodder, "So, this transplant is just to extend the life span of humans." ”

"Part of it. General Lance nodded, since the most 'unspeakable' reasons for this 'human nature' have been revealed, what attitude is there to hide-"The other part is that since you know that you will use a certain state to live forever, then, before this eternal life comes, let yourself be in the best state." Glancing at Zach, "This bit of selfishness, given the current era, is not a problem." ”

Zach raised an eyebrow, "No problem. No problem at all. ”

Zach, I just realized something. After all, the medical development of human beings has some meaning for vampires~

Oh, what a pity, did you think of it? If only Zach had come west sooner, Mrs. Quinn of the old woman......

But the point had just emerged, and Zach β€” "Is it just the heart, just the beginning?" asked General Lance.

"Yes. I'll swap everything. This is the general's answer, "This is not my 'private matter' alone, we have a 'community', a group of people like me, we have the means, the resources, all the things that will make us satisfied with our state of eternal life." This heart is just the beginning. ”

What does it mean? Like Barton, the death of a donor and the hollowing out of his body into someone else's organs can happen constantly under the control of this 'group' of human elites.

Zach got what he needed to know.
