24 Angry customers and travel
The construction noise outside Grande's new office seemed to make it impossible for the people inside to concentrate, and today's "Urban Tales" had been spread out in front of Zach for almost a morning, but he hadn't even finished reading it.
That Austin, after a while, came in to apologize and report on the process of dismantling the elevator in the accident......
Look, he's coming in again.
A small stack of papers was placed in front of Zack by Austin, who smiled and thoughtfully flipped to the place where he needed to sign, "Mr. Grande, hehe, sign your name......"
With an impatient expression, Zach picked up the pen and quickly signed, "Is this the last?" ”
"Yes, yes!" Austin replied eagerly, "all the insurance documents are here, I have taken care of all the accidents, and the responsibility for the accident is fully borne by our renovation company, and Grand will be fully compensated." Ah, sorry again!"
"Sorry?!compensation?!" Zach dutifully played an angry customer, "Your sorry is useful?!Who cares about your compensation!" He waved his arm, the pen in his hand moistened with ink, and threw a trail of ink in the air......
"What I want is safety! Those children who rarely come to Grande, as well as those young masters and ladies in the West District, fortunately, no one was injured yesterday! No further investigation! Do you think they, I, Grande, will care about your compensation?!"
"Yes, yes......" Austin had a slight sweat on his forehead, this was probably the most 'busy' morning since he took over Grande's business, and he couldn't talk to old Hank like he had done for the past few days, and he spent the day discussing the renovation with Louise. It's all used to apologize, be scolded by Grande's owner, be scolded by his own company, run away, and contact the insurance company.
"We will make sure that this kind of thing will never happen again, and I will personally inspect the new elevator!
Zach glanced at Austin with irritated eyes. As if he didn't want to pay attention to it anymore, he quickly signed it and pushed back the file.
"And. Zach frowned and waved his hand outside the office, playing an unhappy customer to the fullest, "When will these be done, I can't work quietly because of the noise!"
"Ugh. "Austin was embarrassed. "The original elevator had to be dismantled and the passage had to be renovated before a new one could be installed......"
He's not done yet. Zach had already interrupted him with an irritated wave of his hand, "What do you mean?
"Uh...... Mr. Grande ...... "Austin's tone was plaintive, and indeed it should have been a big business that established the hallmark of Barton's traditional funeral business. Now it's a money-accompaniment business. Oh, it's the pity that he accompanies the money, and he doesn't care at all in the eyes of this Grande master, hey, complain.
"Mr. Grande is no longer in Grande these days, and I don't know the order of our construction. The installation of the elevator was carried out at the same time as the passage, the wall and the connecting corridor outside the office. It's cumbersome to reinstall the lift separately now, and it takes some time to plan for the new ......"
Waving hands. Interrupt again.
"What do you mean?!" Austin's words clearly offended Grande's master, "I'm not in Grande because of your construction, so I can't work!"
Zach glared at Austin, "It's because of you! The funeral of the old Bills and Sharp made us Grand so hasty, so ...... Do you know what a big show we had with Mr. Quinn's funeral, Herman's son's funeral, and Bisharp's son's funeral?!"
Guess where Zach landed?
Zach stood up angrily, "Have you read the newspapers these days? Have you seen any reports about the funeral of Mr. and Mrs. Bishop Sr.? No! We Grande are the only traditional funeral business for Barton! Mr. and Mrs. Bishop Sr. are the founders of Barton! Have you seen any reports of such a funeral?!"
Austin was in a cold sweat, and he was a little confused that this was his business.
Zach went on excitedly, "Not at all! Why? Because the funeral was a disappointment! Not worth being reported! Austin? Do you know why? Because of you! Because you can't make me work well!"
Still, this is Austen's!
"Now you're asking me to be considerate of your work? Do you need more time to compensate for your mistakes at work?!Are you serious? I hired you to make Grande better, and now you not only disturbed Grande's normal work and caused such an accident!" Zach finally gave an epilogue, and said, Zack's role was incisive.
"Uh, uh...... Two days!" Austin stiffened his head and said a number, "Two days! We installed the new elevator and carried out the original decoration plan at the same time! And you proposed to open a new back door behind the counter in the showroom (Zach made an additional request to avoid the office becoming the only access to the living and working areas), three days, three days! We will complete the entire renovation of Grande!"
Zach seemed tired after the tantrum, sat back in his chair, and waved his hand, "Get out now, I need to be alone now." ”
With Zack's words, I don't know if the noise of the electric drill or something came in, Austin quickly put away the file and ran.
Zach tugged at the corners of his mouth and poured a glass of wine, much more comfortable.
What we know is that this is just an outlet for the frustration of James after listening to Louise at breakfast. With our vampire's ability to control emotions, this venting is unnecessary, but Austin is there, not white, not hairy, so just post it. It's been almost a morning, and it's been thorough enough.
After venting, Zach once again set his sights on the magazine in front of him. Finally, instead of playing an angry client, Zach can read the magazine properly.
Zach was reading the article Madison had written about the 'truth' about Bishop Manor. The original manuscript, Zach had watched Madison finish, but the content that appeared in the magazine changed slightly.
Presumably, the editors of the magazine cut some content in order to better suit the style of the magazine. For example, about the final 'salvation' of the 'evil spirits' (evil spirits'. Madison according to the facts. Written about the revenge of the wraiths, to really take full control of Bisharp's plans. That is, Zach took Riley and them to the manor to force Shelf to cooperate. Unfold that part of the plan.
In the revised paragraph, the plan was cut out, and the ending was left to haunt the manor with the spirits, which led to the alarmist conclusion that was in keeping with the magazine's usual style - "Here's a warning to everyone, don't go near this manor haunted by the spirits, if you go in, you will never be able to get out." 』
Finally finished reading this one. Zach raised an eyebrow, thinking about the noise of construction. That's fine, the aliens who subscribed to Urban Legends because they were curious about what Grande was up to. There is also something that is not necessary to know too much detail.
Zach flipped to the first page of the magazine and can now easily enjoy the joke magazine.
"Beware of the Candles!The Door to Another World" (Walter travels from the candle to the other world), well, Zach already feels that this is a story worth laughing at.
The phone rang.
Zach, who had only seen the beginning, picked up the phone. Standardized tone. "Grande Funeral Home, what do you need to help ......?"
"It's me, is it convenient. No's voice.
Zach immediately closed the magazine, he'd been waiting for the call for almost a week!
"Convenient. Zach put away his superfluous tone and frowned, the office is really noisy now, Zack's voice is a little louder, "Convenient!"
"No need to shout. No's tone was a little strange. "I can hear you ......"
Zach was a little embarrassed, "Where are you? Why haven't you heard anything about you these days? Zach tugged at the corners of his mouth. "The 'General' didn't show up either. ”
That's how Zach was away yesterday when he couldn't eavesdrop on the conversation between James and Alice at Grande. In the afternoon, arrange things at Sharp Manor at Riley's, and waste time at [Bobo Bar] in the evening.
"Well, he's right next to him, are you going to say hello. No, who was in the earpiece, sighed and said so.
Zach raised an eyebrow, "You're with the 'General'?
"Yes. ”
Zach waited a moment, he was waiting for an explanation, about Smith's commission to Nocha, what he had asked Nocha to do, and since the 'General' was also around, there had to be one more thing - what was going on in the Southeast.
However, there was only the sound of breathing on the other side of the earpiece.
"Uh, no. Zach frowned, "You don't have anything to tell me." ”
"Oh yes, thing. As if he hadn't woken up, "We should meet." Do you have time? ”
"Yes. Zach looked at the clock, it was almost eleven o'clock. It's redundant, what's there to see, no matter where the minute hand points to, our vampire has time, "You Grande, or am I going to go?"
"Nope. ”
At the same time as Nuo answered, there was a little noise on the other side of the earpiece, a little far, a little small voice sounded, it was 'General', the voice was a little confused, "Who are you talking to on the phone?"
He didn't avoid the microphone and replied, "Zach." ”
Zach didn't bother with the conversation for the time being, which wasn't part of the phone.
"Zach, why did you call him? Didn't you ask a security company you know for help?"
"They...... It's a bit of a hassle. Nou replied to the 'General', "Can't help us." ”
"Zach could?" the General's rhetorical question was visibly skeptical.
"If he can't do it, no one can do it. This is No's answer.
Zach's face had become completely serious and he had to intervene in the call, "No, what's going on?"
"Come out and say it. Noe didn't pay any attention to the General, "We're in Knoll Beach." You're here to find us on the beach......"
"Noll Beach?" Before Noel could finish speaking, Zach interrupted, "Why Noll Beach?" Need to be reminded that in the middle of summer, in the morning, the sun, the sand, every scene that humans love is really not a place that our vampires are keen on...... The two humans, Novo and 'General', are absolutely incapable of taking Zach to the bottom of the sea where the sun can't shine.
"Uh......" Noh seemed to think for a moment, "sorry, you can bring some more, uh, 'snacks'." Noh realized, thoughtfully reminded, "We need to stay in crowded places." Norpause paused, "Safe." ”
Zach frowned tightly and said no more, "Okay, I'll go right away." ”
"Well, go directly to the place with the most people, we will wait for you there. "The phone hung up.
Zach put down the phone and walked straight around the desk and in the direction of the door. Encountering a wall, Zach was stunned, "Tsk!"
Momentarily concerned about the situation, Zach forgot that this office was reversed from the original office space.
Zack tugged at the corners of his mouth, changed direction, walked to the east side door, just grabbed the handle, and realized that he was too lazy to see Austin and his construction team again, after all, he had just blackmailed them hard, changed directions, and went out through the west side door.
"Where are you going?" in the stairwell, he actually ran into Brian coming up from the basement.
Zach frowned and looked at Brian, "What are you doing in the basement." "The basement is Zach's private space, and he doesn't like people to go there.
"I'll help you fill the 'wine'!" Brian said, holding two bottles in his hand, "Louise said let me be of some use to myself, don't mess around!, but it's not like a mill, and there's no work to be done......"
Zach waved his hand, why did this sound so uncomfortable, "Put it in the refrigerator when it's ready, don't put it indiscriminately." "Zach doesn't bother to pay attention to this guy.
"I'm here for you!
Zach pursed his lips, "Then go and ask Louise where I usually put my food, and make up for it." Pushed open the side door of the stairwell.
"Oh, where are you going?" said Brian, asking insistently.
Zach tugged at the corners of his mouth, "Noel Beach." ”
"Beach?!Swimming?, I'm going too!"
Zach stepped out and closed the door.
"My father went to war before he could teach me how to swim. Brian chased after him, "I also told Ian to let him teach me, he taught once, the waves were too big at night, I was almost washed away, he stopped teaching......"
Remember, Ian hasn't been able to fully grasp daytime operations.
Zach looked back on the back porch, looked at Brian with two blood vials, frowned, and was silent for a while, "Take these." Zach turned back and walked towards Grande's van, "I might need to add." Don't expect me to teach you how to swim, but I can introduce you to a swimming coach. ”
"Coach?" Brian quickened his pace, happily following, "Is he amazing?" Ian is very powerful, he can dive all the way down in the sea without breathing! You must be able to do the same, definitely more powerful! How deep can you sink? Can you see the bottom of the sea......
Zach really didn't want to talk anymore and pushed Brian into the van, "Seat belts!"
The Grande wagon starts, targeting Noll Beach. (To be continued......)
