18 James in the police station
Barton North Police Department.
James sat at his desk, but his eyes kept on Wess across from him.
"I can feel your breathing. Wess was doing paperwork, and after closing a file, he glanced at James with an uncomfortable face, "Your breath stinks!"
"It's eggs. James replied, "Breakfast." β
Wes flipped through the new file and said helplessly, "What do you want?" β
"I want to get out and out of the police station. James continued to stare at Wes.
"Then get out. Wess glanced at James's desk, and in front of him was a graffiti that was almost rottenβJames was pretending to work, and he didn't know who he was pretending to be for.
"I can only get out if you go out, we are partners, we work together, forgot?"
Wes tugged at the corners of his mouth, "I'm not going to show you these documents." β
James explained to Zach yesterday why he returned to Grande early, and he didn't forget it - Wes thought James was causing trouble.
Wes crooked the corners of his mouth, "I'm not in the mood to argue with you about the cooperation between our police and the Smith family. β
"What I mean when I'm not in the mood is, you know it's shit that the police and criminals cooperate. James was really unkind. Everyone can understand that the criminals in James's mouth refer to the Smith family.
Wes glanced at James, "Look!" and lowered his voice, "That's where you can't be reasoned! We're the police! We're the detectives! We collect evidence, and then we rely on the evidence to determine who the criminal is......!"
James's gaze drifted away, "Hmph, I didn't decide, I just knew Smith was a criminal." Continuing with the graffiti in front of the frame, "What files are you working on?" as if casually, and replied to himself, "It's Lydia Smith's underground club, the dirty transaction accounts." Evidence of a crime. You're weezing out the evidence. James snorted again, "Hmph, because you made a deal with the criminal." β
Now you know what James is messing with?
Wes's hand holding the pen turned into a fist, "Lance! if you don't help, forget it!
"I'm going to help. James instantly dropped the graffiti in front of him, "Give me a copy." "This transformation......
"No!" Wes tugged at the corners of his mouth, "don't think I don't know what you want to do!
Come on.
James stared at Wes, "You're thinking too much. β
"I didn't think much of it. Weiss also glanced at James, "You know very well that the future of the Smith family is Lydia Smith, the Ramer clan! Now that the Smith family has been laundered through the drug pilot in the asylum, and the black material of these underground clubs is the bargaining chip you can use to restrain Ramer in the future!" Wes's cheeks twitched, and he added, "When you become the master of this city!"
James was silent for three seconds, "Weis, am I such a villain in my heart!"
"You are!" Unceremoniously, Wes stared at James, "and you're really a 'villain'!" There was a tone of disappointment, "Grow up, James! Now these things in my hands can't touch the Remel clan at all! Such a childish 'trick' can only be thought of by a guy like you! So don't think that you are a 'master of conspiracy'! You are a baby! We were surrounded by aliens in the west and there was no self-conscious ignorant baby!!"
James frowned, he felt the ...... in Wes's words very clearly Contempt, "I'm not a baby. β
Wes shook his head and continued to work on the papers in front of him.
The atmosphere at the desks was silent for a few moments, and James dropped the lump of paper to Wes...... "Don't talk about it, just tell me why the black material in this club can't threaten Reimer in the future." β
Wes looked up speechlessly and looked at James, "Are you funny, don't you stick to your image of not playing tricks?"
"You broke my heart. James threw another lump of paper over, "What more image do I need?" β
"Tsk. You don't have to say it's so disgusting!" Wes pursed his lips and let out a long breath, "Okay!" Now, focusing on Wes's explanation, "Let me ask you, even if you get the 'incriminating evidence' of these club deals, how are you going to restrain Reimer in the future?"
"I'll have a reason to shut down an illegal property in Remer. "James really thinks about this 'means' seriously.
"Are you going to put Lydia Smith in jail?" asked Wes.
Almost instinctively, James said, "No! she's a Remer!"
"What's the point of that?" Wess continued.
"The meaning is that I can teach her a lesson!" James frowned.
"What lesson?" the real question followed, "Reimer needs to obey the law?"
"Of course! in the city...... Creatures, whatever they are, obey the law!"
"There is no law of punishment. Perfect. β
"What does it mean that there is no punishment. I shut down one of her properties. β
Wes shook his head speechlessly, "An immortal, she doesn't even know what she owns, that's awesome, Jaime." β
James stared at his fist on the table, "Okay, I see, this club doesn't matter to Remer. β
"It's not a matter of whether it's important or not!James!You're still not ......" Wes seemed a little irritated, "Realize it's not the law that matters!" Wess said something very rebellious, and at the same time, he leaned forward and stared at James, "If you want to 'play tricks' with aliens! Tools, not laws! That's why you're a 'baby'! Your mind is still stuck on what you think is absolute 'justice'!" Wes actually reached over the two tables and pinched James's chin," It's not that you have any evidence of guilt that you can wave your badge to call for justice! Grow up! Jaime! When you become the master of this city! The means you use to control these aliens are definitely not the law! So, don't think about the black accounts of this club! I'm just helping you block these useless things!"
After saying that, Wes sat back down, regardless of whether the stunned James understood or not.
James...... Got it. There was silence for about three minutes, "How does the Demon Banquet control the alien race?" This is not a question, it is a self-answer, "It's 'slavery', it is the rule of the Demon Banquet, not only the alien race, but also the human race. Humans are willing to be ruled by the vampires of the Demon Feast because they have mastered cheap alien commissions, and aliens are only slaves to all living things. The rule of the West is a dictatorship of human politics and alien politics in one...... "Is James analyzing the nature of society in the West? Let him be, he is now in a special state.
"The way of the Demon Feast...... is failing, and the appearance of sociopaths is evidence of their failure. Moreover, this method did not work for Barton...... It will not be useful for anything other than the west. As a result, some of the other cities of the Federation are alien lords. "James's special state continues, "The former lords of the central part are a secret alliance, just like the stories that Zach occasionally tells, he appears in various historical events of human beings, alien races, and eras to guide and contribute to the direction of history......"
James bowed his head, "It's useless to Barton either." The Covert Alliance has failed. About a hundred years ago, when Toredo was exterminated in accordance with the times, this method was no longer useful. β
Wes glanced at James, probably unaware of his concern that James's words were headed.
"Alien lords who don't conform to the human era are not the solution. James shook his head, "The former Newton Demon is proof that the alien lords tried to control the human city, but there was no system built by the Demon Feast in four centuries, and in the end they almost destroyed Newton City." β
Gotta give James a thumbs up, that sums it up...... Not bad.
"Anthony ......" James looked up, his gaze not focused, "how?"
Wes reacted for a moment before "You're asking me?"
James nodded.
"Then my answer is very simple, Zack!" Wes replied, very simply, "Zach Barton's all interracial and all interracial (emphasis added)......!
The corners of James's mouth twitched, "Then how did Anthony 'get' Zack?"
"Picked up. Wes tugged at the corners of his mouth, "Or the other way around, and he'll pick it up like you." β
James looked away, not wanting to respond to Wes's 'joke', seriously, "At first, at least when I arrived at Barton, Anthony was the protector of Zach's identity. With Anthony here, Zach's identity as the last Toredo is safe. James frowned, "Zach and Barton's Native aliens also have an agreement to keep his identity confidential. β
"So that's what you really need. Weiss felt that the conclusion had come out, "You need to find such a 'person' that you can protect 'him', and then 'he' can 'suppress' all of Barton's alien races." β
James looked at Wes again, "Do you have any nominees?" β
"Tsk. I am not your prime minister. "It's so direct.
James tilted his lips and tilted his head, not knowing where to focus.
Wes finished processing another file, stretched his body, took a new one, and continued......
"It's true that I said I wanted to go to the police station before, and I can't waste my time in the police station now. James threw a ball of paper at Wes again, "Can you help the Smith family expunge the incriminating evidence tomorrow?" β
Wes looked up speechlessly, "You go by yourself!"
"We are partners and in the eyes of others, we need to act together. James pursed his lips, "'Others' means people in the police station. I don't want Darcy to stuff me with another partner. β
"Ugh. Wes stretched out his hand and waved around, "Look around, no one is looking at us!"
"Someone is looking at us. James suddenly did a good job, and when Wes didn't react in an instant, he grabbed a document on Wes's desk, flipped through it, and pretended to be working.
Wes glanced at the person who came over unhappily and wanted to lose his temper, but when he found out that it was Chapman, he suppressed his emotions and beckoned to one, "Chapman." Early. β
"Detective, morning. You might want to check this out. Chapman handed over a report.
Wes flipped it open and glanced at it, "Autopsy???" frowned, "Where did you find the body again?"
"Those don't matter. Chapman glanced at James, but didn't mean to speak to James, and continued to Weiss, "The cause of death." He pointed to the report.
"Suffocation. Wes frowned, "Same cause of death as two people in Lydia's Club." β
"It's exactly the same. Chapman pointed to the elaboration part, "There are no external injuries, and the internal organs of the body are all healthy and normal, at least they were normal before, but the oxygen level in the blood is too low to paralyze the lungs and then the whole body functions to stop." Suffocated to death. This is just one of them, and the few bodies found yesterday are the cause of death. β
"Did you find a body yesterday? Which team is in charge? Have you confirmed your identity?"
Chapman answered only the last question, "Outsiders, like your two deceased, use false identities at Barton. β
"And what about the real identity??"
Chapman pursed his lips, "Like those two of yours, there are no clues at all." β
Before Wes was outraged by the meaning of this answer, Chapman spoke first, "I think this should be related to your case, do you want me to go through the formalities and transfer it to you?"
Before Wes could interject, James had already stood up, "Yes." Where did you find the body? Wes and I went over and took a look. β
"We ......," Chapman frowned, "no body found, it was sent." Yesterday afternoon, you weren't there. Director Darcy ordered a few people to inspect a van in the garage, and the body was in the car. β
"Wait a minute, is everyone busy with this?" Wes looked around at the police station, where few people were there, "Why wasn't Detective Lance and I notified?"
Chapman looked around for a moment, and then kept his voice low, very low, so low that James and Weiss had to lean in front of him to hear it, "The Director didn't tell anyone why he suddenly ordered someone to inspect the car, but I know who ordered him to inspect it." β
These words have revealed the truth-
"Who can command him?" asked James.
Hamilton Lesenbra. Chapman's answer.
James looked at Weiss, "Hamilton was fooled by Zack into investigating the mayor's secretary's 'disappearance'. β
"Uh......" Wess apparently knew the information for the first time, "Forget it, I don't need to know." Realized, so he said to Chapman, "Don't turn it into my hands." Then he looked at James, "I'd better focus on the work of removing the Smith family's illegal black material." "This is clearly a mockery. Mock yourself, mock James.
Chapman nodded, and was still pulled by Wess as he was about to leave, "Notify me if there's any news, privately." β
Chapman nodded again, "I know your address." "Just to show that I have the ability to inform Weiss privately.
Wess said, "Well, don't be at my house, just ask me out when there's news." β
Chapman didn't say anything, nodded again, and left.
It was James, "Why don't you let Chapman go to your house? Don't ask why.
"It's none of your business. He replied coldly, and at the same time, Wes sorted out the papers on the table, "Aren't you going out, let's go, let's go out." β
James tugged at the corners of his mouth, "Do you want to know what I'm going to do?" β
"Unlike you, I respect the privacy of others. "You drive, take me to Parker Elementary, Eve is there, and then you can do whatever you want." β
To all who do not respect James's privacy, James is going to find Madison, a little hardship on the pilgrimage.
