Chapter 25: The Circle

"We were tricked. The person who spoke was still the woman of the Windwind family, Sbella, and Corden just sat silently on the side, frowning.

Zach looked into Sbella's eyes instead of himself, and he was pretty sure that the 'we' he was talking about didn't include vampires, but the Windswept couple.

But what about the facts? Zach can say something like that.

"Where's Riwench?" Zach asked, already with an answer.

Sbella finally looked at Zack, with a complicated hatred in her eyes, but the subject was not a vampire, "Officially, cremation tomorrow, but ......"

Zach sighed, and continued with Sbella's words: "You saw the body, it wasn't him, he was gone." ”

A lot can happen in an afternoon.

Rivench died instantly, and no one wanted to spend more time on a criminal who had already been sentenced to death and was still trying to harm others. But procedurally, he will still let the Windswept couple take one last look at him. Before this glance, something happened, the person lying on the waiting cremation list was no longer Rivanch, ordinary people would be bewitched by witchcraft, but Sbella would not.

"From the beginning, all he (Papa Midnight) wanted was my blood. Sibella said gloomily, with hatred.

There was a helpless smile in the corner of Zack's eyes, "And mine." ”

Wells had always been bait, but he wasn't Zack's, but Papa's Midnight's, in order to fish out the descendants of 'Toledo'!

When the investigation is coming to an end, the normal path fails. The 'dry corpse' bound by the chains will always be the 'dry corpse', so force Zach to revive him!

Sbella's face showed surprise, but it disappeared immediately, and the coldness on her face became heavier: "You woke up Ian Anthony. ”

Zach nodded, he was not surprised that Sbella would know about Ian's existence, Hurricane had lived in Barton City much longer than Zack and them, and he didn't remember that when he lived on the battlefield with the two Anthony brothers, he gave Ian a way to put vampires to sleep forever, after all, the most important 'quality' of vampires is eternal life, not eternal sleep.

Hank, Wind, Ian, before the vampires and werewolves came to Barton, they were all connected!

But it's not their story, it's Zach's.

"I have to wake him up. Zach shook his head, "Your son, he used the blood of the dead to poison me. ”

Sbella's face showed thought, normal people would not take the initiative to approach after hearing the gunshot. Aside from being wizards and former hunters, the Tempest couple are normal. So they didn't know what was going on, and when they were notified, all they knew was the vague narrative that Rivench tried to harm innocent people, was stopped by the guards, and died on the spot.

The Indian woman could have imagined that Papa had found Rivench at midnight and offered an 'invitation'. At first, Sbella thought that Rivench was just trying to survive, but now, if Papa Midnight was the beginning of a contract to revenge the vampire, it would be easier for Rivench to take it. But there are still disconnects in the event.

"Why are you here?" asked Zach.

"Protect Ryan. Sibella replied directly, and the light and shadow in the corner of the office distorted for a moment, but the figure of someone never appeared.

Zach nodded, "Okay, now I also have people who need protection, and we can work together." ”

The bell rang on the desk, and Alice pushed open the side door, waiting for Zack's command.

"Alice, sort out the empty room on the second floor, the valuable guests will stay here for a few days. ”

"Yes. Alice glanced at the Tempests, with a hint of mixed sadness in her eyes, and nodded away. Alice was picked up by vampires and werewolves on Barton Street, and everyone should remember.

When the two couples were sent to the second floor to rest, James had already woken up from a fainting and was surprised to see the three of them together. Zack's recovery didn't make much of a difference, because Anthony had already told him about Alice's importance in the Grande House, and that she was the vampire's support for keeping that eternal life.

James was surprised by the arrival of the Tempest, and although he was still unable to face the Tempest, he dragged the vampire into Tempest's room, despite the pain in the bandages on his shoulders. The four of them stood under the same roof again, only the location had changed from James's Golden Bachelor's Loft to a small room of twenty square meters at the Grande House.

"You!" James pointed at the vampire, his movement was a little big, he touched the wound, and the corners of his eyes twitched: "You'll settle accounts with you later!"

Zach pouted, his body had just recovered, and the vampire didn't plan to donate his blood to James' healing. He needs to restore a vampire power of three hundred or four hundred years after the 'blood exchange' for a possible battle.

"Let's talk about the important things first!" said James to the other three with some excitement, hoping to use his emphasis, to put the Tempests aside: it was he who sent Rivench to death, the fact.

I'm afraid only the son of this general would think that what he has to say is important.

"Papa's midnight recruiter! I can already confirm that there was an accident around the full moon last month, and people who are still alive or dead cannot be confirmed. ”

This list has long been given to the Wind Couple, but with Sibella's sixth sense, the progress of the investigation is very slow.

"Plus having access to [Barton Mercy Hospital's] medical record system for those who have died!" James continued, apparently reasoning and coming to his conclusion before Zach refused to help and Rivench's trial court began.

"There's only one person who fit......s the bill!

"Enough James. The Windwinds kept frowning and not speaking, and the only 'bad guy' who interrupted James' was Zach, a vampire, "We don't care who it is. If that's what you're talking about, we have more important things to do. ”

Zach was about to turn to leave, and the Tempests turned around as well, taking off their coats and cloaks, they needed to rest.

James was alone, standing in a room of only twenty square meters, staring, as if he could not accept such a turn of events for a while.

"Wait!" James grabbed Zach by the shoulder, pulling the vampire who was about to open the door and leave, the muscles on his shoulders bulging as the red blood slowly spread through the white gauze with force.

"What do you say, what do you mean you don't care?!" James's cheeks twitched, not knowing whether it was pain or excitement.

The movements of the Tempest couple also stopped in time, and the fault line of the incident will be solved here.

"You want to know?" Zach looked back at James with a smirk.

The general's son's eyes were confused for a moment, and he was not concerned about 'why he didn't care', but because he was angry at the indifference of these people!

Zach faced James, looked him in the eye and didn't wait for him to continue speaking, and preemptively spoke: "Rivench became the Dead Apostle personally recruited by Papa Midnight. ”

James was stunned, his head quickly deflected, and he looked at the Tempests. Faced with the gloomy face of the couple, James understood that this was not what they wanted. His face turned to Zach again, and just as he was about to speak, the vampire took the lead again.

"The thing that Rivench attacked me was a 'poison-drug' that was lethal to vampires. ”

James wasn't surprised by this, and he didn't care how Rivenge came into contact with it. Fortunately, Zach didn't need him to ask.

"Those things are Wells, the same guy Benjamin asked you to bring back, and sent to Rivanch. ”

James was a little surprised at this point, and although the conversation with the vampire was always like this, he was forced to lead him by the nose, but it was undeniable that the general's son had begun to get used to the feeling of being suppressed at this moment. He began to think about the connection.

"Wells is a pawn that I have planted. It is to help you Lance Detective, a pawn used to lure out the Dead Apostle recruiter. With a self-deprecating smile, Zach looked at James as he thought with a shocked expression, waiting for the human detective's mind to connect the dots.

"So, he's not my guy, he's the guy Papa used Midnight to draw me to Rivench. Zach kept a smile and gave the detective time to think for himself.

"Riwench. You. James lowered his head, his mind turned sharply, and looked at the Windwinds again, his brows furrowed, and looked back at Zack, "Why?"

"Good question. Zach nodded in satisfaction, "But unfortunately, we don't know, so that's what matters more to us." Zach's words are not detailed, but James just needs to know that.

The Windwinds had a clear understanding in their eyes, the fault line of the incident had been filled, and Wells, the person who was used by both sides, was the nexus between the vampire and Riwench.

Zach was about to leave again, and James stopped the vampire again: "Wait! Recruit man! We must catch him!"

Zach raised an eyebrow impatiently, "Are you serious?" He is nothing, just a guy who is both lucky and unlucky. Papa Midnight didn't care about him, all the things were just a huge circle, in order to put the wind, and bring me into the circle. ”

James opened his mouth, unable to utter anything to refute it.

From the moment Papa was summoned to Barton City by Sbella at midnight because of her momentary vulnerability, this huge arc began to prolong. Those Dead Apostles who committed suicide, those corpses that were called walking corpses by vampires in the warehouse, just to prop up the filling of this arc!

Rivench becomes a Dead Apostle, perhaps the end, or just any point in the arc!

"I'm sorry, James. If you want to catch him, rely on your own strength, the power of man. We are not your tools, we have our own destiny to control. ”

Zach walked out the door and down the hallway towards the stairwell. Inside the room door that was still open behind her, Sbella's cold voice sounded: "You can go, we need to rest." ”
