2 Late-night calls

Zach and Louise were admiring the moon on the back porch, and of course they wouldn't be able to see anything in the gloomy night with normal human eyes, but vampires could.

In the thin clouds, the two vampires could feel the full moon, shining in the night sky, "Tomorrow the sky will be clear." Louise sighed inexplicably. That means she's going to be in the basement again.

Zach didn't know what to say, and Louise's progress was now - the image in the mirror was no longer a mess, there was an outline, but it was still blurry and had no facial features. This progress is really not worth rejoicing, "En......"

Jingle Bell ......

The phone was particularly harsh at night, and Zach escaped, "I'll answer the phone." ”

"At this time?" Louise watched Zach get up, "who could it be?"

"I don't know. "Zach is very honest, guessing the game of 'who called', and he can't play it in the middle of the night, so he stands behind the counter for a while, creating the illusion that a normal person is woken up to answer the phone, and then picks up the receiver.

"Mr. Grande, please wake up James Lance, there is a case and a detective is needed to work, thank you. In a word, the person in the earpiece said everything that needed to be said.

Zach blinked, "You're-" long-tailed, waiting for the other to add.

"Director Darcy. ”

Zach raised an eyebrow, "Director Darcy?"

Both sides were silent for a while, and the other party spoke first, "The inheritor of the Demon Feast, who came to serve at Patton three days ago, and is currently the chief of the Patton Police Department, James must have talked about me." This tone is actually a little helpless, from self-reporting.

"Oh, I know who you are. Zach's expression was amused, "I don't need James to tell me, I see the news." I just don't understand, why did Grande come?"

The other party was silent for a while. "James lives in the Grande, right? ”

"Yes. Neither is it. ”

"Uh, Grande first...... Zach, that's your preferred name, right, then, Zach. Can you explain?"

Zach didn't even bother to find out who told the guy who had parachuted from the Demon Banquet to his preferred title, "It's a full moon tonight, do I need to explain more?"

"Uh...... Alpha's transformation, I forgot what Kozil told me, the first week James came and the wolf body Alpha encountered. ”

James didn't dare to stay in Grande and sleep during the full moon cycle?

Zach shrugged his shoulders and didn't respond.

"So, may I ask Zack, do you know where James is now?"

"Yes. ”

"Can you tell me about that?"

"Am I in any interest?"

The other party was silent again. And then, "Forget it, I'll think ...... myself"

"No longer with his friend Wes. Zach curled the corners of his mouth slightly, and let out a little news first. Weiss and James were comrades-in-arms, and they should have been the first to think of each other.

The other party neither hung up the phone, nor spoke, and was silent for a while, "If you will tell me James's location." I will, on behalf of the Patton Police Department. Thank you. ”

Zach tugged at his lips with a smile, "You've only been here for three days, and I think the gratitude that Director Cologne represents won't expire so soon." ”

There was silence again on the other side of the earpiece, "Is it at the hospital, Detective Cowson?"

"It's not. ”

"Well...... Own home. By the way, supervise the renovation progress. "The new director is also quite interesting.

"It's not. Zach responded with a smile.

"Fitz. ”

"It's not. ”

"Hotel Liszt. ”

"It's not. ”

"Is it Kozil?"

"Of course not. ”

"Linda. ”

"Nope. Zach smiled and shook his head, "And I suggest you don't disturb your fellow who has started a new life, Linda." You shouldn't have thought of her at all. ”

Not surprisingly silent, "I gave up, are you willing to tell me?"

"Can I ask a question?" Zach does best. Off topic, or off topic without waiting for others to agree, "Will you take special 'care' of James in the future, like this, find him a job in the middle of the night, personally." ”

There was no silence, and he replied quickly, "Yes, you really shouldn't be surprised, half of my work is to make roads for James, and work is opportunity." ”

"I'm not surprised, just confirmed, and now it's a bit disappointed. Zack's smile was still there, but it was much lighter, "As a citizen of Patton, I hope that the work of the police chief is all dedicated to Patton's security, so that I can feel at ease." Instead of dividing it in half to create a chance for a young detective. ”

The silence returned, this time a little longer. And then - "The Feast's previous analysis of Ann Anthony's rise to Barton was tinged with concern that James's abilities were not as good as Anthony's performance as a police detective. The other party paused slightly, giving Zach time to react, "But after James came to Barton, although he was very bad at building relationships, he dealt with a few cases that allowed us to dispel this worry, James is very capable, the same as Anthony used to be, or even higher......"

Because Anthony had the alliance of Aethra in the later period, he had the opportunity to make friends with Patton's upper echelons, and the work became more and more smooth. James is still blank in this regard, but he has become very active in the eyes of the West End people just by relying on the case.

The other continued, "Then the Demon Feast, finally got to know Toredo in Barton, you. We understand that their outstanding work ability is actually because of you. ”

"Thank you?" Zach raised his eyebrows, naturally taking this as a compliment, adding a question mark to mean that Zach didn't know where the other party's words would go.

"So, since you are by James's side to help him, I will give James a chance, and then there will be you, and this is the greatest peace of mind for all the citizens of Barton. "Actually...... It makes sense, "When I say that, do I save a little bit of my consciousness as a director?"

Zach's smile went back, amused, "If the Director says that, then what else can I say." ”

"Can you tell me where James is?"

"Hehe, better, I'll convey it for you. Zach didn't wait for the other party's reaction and hung up.

Louise, who was listening to all the conversations on the back porch, laughed, "This Director Darcy, that's funny. Are you going to call James now?"

Zach went back to the back porch, "Well, do you want to go along?"

Louise quickly shook her head, "No, I trust Benjamin to control the wolf body, but Matthew's side ......" Louise smiled and shook her head, but wait a minute, she said the wolf body, what do you mean?" ”

Zach smiled and nodded, and off off. To the south, the border woods.

Director Darcy was half right, James had a psychological shadow on the alpha transformation, but the result was wrong, James didn't hide far away, he was at the exit of the woods, sitting in the car, staring. He was afraid that Alpha would get out of control, so he ran to the North End and bit Fitz and stayed there.

Hey, there's not much more to say about this guy. (To be continued.) )
