"Rules, hehe, it seems that I was deceived by Smith, he said that it was because of his peers (Zach only used his last name to call the second generation of the West Side, and no honorifics began with Smith, and the recording commission), I didn't dare to make such a rule. "Deliberately, it's just a trick to pull into the relationship.

"Huh. Fisher smiled, looking like a very kind person, probably related to his 'slightly' chubby figure, "They all say that you are very good at understanding other people's minds, so the commission given to you always achieves a satisfactory result." Zach naturally accepted the praise, but he didn't have time to thank him, "You're right, I'm a little worried, for Cody's kid." ”

"Oh?" Zach pushed open the office door, still, sat down, "I just heard you say that he is Cody's brother, I think it's inevitable that Cody will be sad when such a tragedy happens." ”

"Yes. Fisher nodded, and when he entered the office, he still looked at it curiously, paying special attention to the chair in front of the desk, too many people said it was comfortable, he was curious, "You know, especially the little boy, at his age, it is easy to have a sense of admiration for the older boy, as a role model." Jackson before, ...... now" Fisher shook his head and sat down in front of the office, "I'm worried that this kind of thing will happen in succession, and it will ...... to Cordy's growth"

"I had the privilege of seeing Cordy and Lola in their accomplishments at the nursery. Zach was comforting, "Cordy is a nice boy, you're a father, you should have some faith in him." ”

"En......" Fisher's head moved a little slowly, obviously Zack's comfort had no effect, and then he smiled bitterly, "You are Zach, you Grande and these children, our relationship is not ordinary, hehe." There are some things you'll know anyway. ”

Seemingly, something was going to be said.

"Cody. Fisher's raised tone was helpless, "blaming himself." Fisher sighed, his tone dropping, "From the Falken Nursery Project......," he smiled and glanced at Zack. Then he sat down in a chair in front of his desk and seemed satisfied, "Another piece of satisfaction, your 'work'." We were all pleasantly surprised by the results. ”

"During this time, the relationship between these children has been so good that they usually use a car to travel, Lola or Kepler's, and we are also relieved to have these two high school students to take care of us, but ......" he glanced at Zach, "Lang's son." It's Cody's driver, and he's been on vacation for a long time. Now, Cody blames himself, he thinks that if he didn't need to pick up and drop off and let this 'big brother' take a vacation and work, this accident wouldn't have happened. ”

"This ......" Zach opened his mouth, so far-fetched logic. Zach shook his head and sat down behind his desk.

Cody is just a kid. Do you want to talk to him about logic? Forget it.

Benjamin, who was pulled out of his nap, looked at the little fat man in front of him, "What the hell do you want, Cody, we don't know each other that well." ”

"You helped those workers in Massa Harbor last time! You're strong! Lola says you're strong! You're better than that Zach! Help me! Help me avenge Lang!"

"I'm sorry, there's no revenge. It was an accident. Benjamin was going to lie back down, really, he didn't know this Cody well. No matter what this Cody thinks of Benjamin, including the look in Benjamin's eyes at the last press conference, he was annoyed by the eyes-disturbed-(XXIV, 21). It's all wishful thinking.

"It's not an accident! Long is a good swimmer! He's not going to drown!"

"Haven't you seen how fast the water is in the Charles River? Benjamin has already been lying back, the last time the nursery press conference, when Lola came to invite, mentioned that Cordy wanted to thank him, Benjamin was already a little surprised, and now being pestered like this, it is really not what Zack wants.

"I know!" Cody was very persistent, maybe slightly wider than his peers, but his body, which was too small compared to Benjamin, pulled Benjamin up diagonally again, "But it hasn't rained recently, and it's still very gentle when it's not close to the mouth of Martha's Bay!"

Benjamin looked at the little guy with a blank face, not wanting to speak. Actually, Benjamin wasn't in a good mood either, because of Louise. Louise had a fresh, watery vampire smell all over his body, and Benjamin wasn't an expert on vampire rebirth, but he could sense that it was not normal, at least the 'General' wouldn't give him such a strong feeling of wanting to go up and break the other person's neck.

Benjamin didn't even know if the feeling was a racial threat or a mere lure to kill, or both. It can only be thought that Louise has no control as a vampire at all, allowing her breath to leak at will.

And Benjamin has no choice but to avoid it. You may remember the conversation between Zach and Benjamin when Matthew first arrived, about the descendants of two races that were defined as opposites, but fortunately it was Zach who was very proficient in language arts, otherwise God knows what would have happened. Benjamin knew he didn't have Zack's ability, so he simply didn't stir up trouble, that, nap.

Then, the little fat man in front of him didn't even let Benjamin complete this helpless concession!

"Don't believe it! On the other side of the Charles River, there are still people secretly swimming in the river! Lang knows where it's safe and where it's not! He won't be stupid enough to get close to the estuary! And, and he's a good swimmer! The police only said that he was found at the estuary, and nothing else! There must have been something else going on in between! So, so it's definitely not an accident!"

If Benjamin had been as good at the human heart as Zack, he would have realized that this was simply the first of five textbook griefs, denial. But that's not what Benjamin is good at.

Probably giving up on reasoning with Cody, Benjamin pulled the corners of his mouth, "Are you saying that someone killed your brother Lang?" You say revenge, and you want me to do it. ”

Normally, such a blunt remark would have made an eleven or twelve-year-old boy flinch, but—

"Yes!"

Benjamin frowned and was silent for a moment, Zach should have taken care of this, because he regretted it as soon as he spoke, "Is this a commission?" ”

Cody actually had a smile on his face, "yes, yes......!" he began to rummage through his pockets, "I don't have much money on me right now...... he pulled out a handful of more than a hundred, "Uh, this is in the nursery before, and my father was afraid that no one would follow me." Yes, I could have asked for more......"

Benjamin pursed his lips and looked at the bills that were in front of him, they were all brand new, and it was understandable that the nursery was in the North District, and the checks might not be eaten around there. And Cordy wasn't old enough to use checks.

"Is that enough?" Cordy looked at Benjamin, "Well, that's a deposit......!

"Take it back. Benjamin opened the bill with one hand, "I won't take your commission." ”

"Why?"

"Not why. Benjamin turned sideways again, ready to lie back.

Benjamin actually managed to lie down, but Cordy didn't continue to pull him up, and there was no sound.

After waiting for a moment, Benjamin turned his head and glanced at Cody. The guy sat in the corner of the bed like a lump of soft meat, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Why are you still here. Benjamin stretched out his leg and kicked the soft meat, "Don't disturb my sleep...... Uh, where are you going?" Benjamin took the initiative.

"Leave it alone!" Kordy had already sprinted towards the stairs, quickly disappearing from view.

"This is Grande, my home. You're just a guest......" Benjamin was really not fit to reason, he had heard the little fat man jump halfway up the stairs......

It's not a stupid move, it's the result of an impulse to rush downstairs. Well, still stupid move.

"O!" Cody felt himself slamming into the pile of warm fluff.

"Stay here!" said Benjamin, holding the guy's back collar. Throw it in the haystack and rip the torn vest off your shoulders.

"You ......," Koudi slumped half into the grass, staring at the hair on Benjamin's rapidly fading body, "you...... You ......"

"What am I. Benjamin tugged at the corners of his mouth, "Lola didn't say the same when I saved your father's port." ”

Koudi shut his mouth. Turning over in the haystack, "Lola, I didn't mention it, well, you're going to turn into a ......" He had better be careful with what he said next! Look at Bisharp now!"Bigfoot!"

Benjamin's expression was momentarily disconnected, "What is Bigfoot." ”

"Uh...... Superman had encountered them when he was building a base in Antarctica, and they were hairy, powerful, and not afraid of ......."

Benjamin turned around and left, "Stay here and don't move, wait until your father and Zack are over and go home obediently, I won't tell your father that you are going to secretly entrust Grande with his errands." ”

"Don't!" Cordy jumped out of the haystack, "I'm going to find that Lance detective! you don't help me, I'll find him!

"Are you stupid? Benjamin shook his head and walked up the stairs, if this kid dared to run around just after showing Alpha's skin, then Benjamin ...... There's no other way to control him," said the police, who said that Lang was an accident. Benjamin began to use reasoning that he was not good at.

"That's the West Side Police!" Cordy retorted, his tone seemed to be very clear about what he was talking about, even if the voice was still a little boy's voice, "The West Side Police will only think about giving us a result as soon as possible!" 'We' are talking about my father and them! What case comes to them, how to make my father happy, how to deal with it! They won't take care of the truth! They won't listen to me, a child!" At least not now, 6 years from now will, uh, 7 years, wait, 18 minus 11, en 7, sorry, I'm bad at math. ”

Benjamin leaned on the railing on the stairs and looked at Koudi, who had a slightly strange turn in his thinking, and frowned, "Who told you these things." ”

"No one needs to say it, I'll see it myself!" Thankfully, Benjamin's warehouse here, Cordy could shout at will, "Everyone in the West End listens to my father, and before my father listens to my grandfather, and will listen to me in the future." Before listening to me, I have to find a way to avenge Brother Lang by myself, and I have to find the truth. ”

"How do you know James isn't the same as the West Side cops. The corner of Benjamin's eye twitched, and the feeling was indescribable when the truth about the West Side was told from a child's mouth, "He's still listening to others, but it's not your turn to come from the West Side." ”

What Benjamin meant was that James was going to listen to the upper class of the North Side, and that the class of the West End was the same, if not lower, because at Barton there was no need to argue about anything, the West End was the absolute top.

"I just know it's different, we all know it's different!" Cody's face began to be cautious, and he even glanced at the door of the warehouse vigilantly, then slapped the hay off his body, and actually ran back to the stairs, standing in front of Benjamin, tilting his head, "Actually, we have known James Lance for a long time, and the last time we saw him in Grande was not the first time we met him. Last year, our parents would talk about him a lot, and we kids would hear his name a lot, and if we were lucky, we could see his information in the study, and we were found to be grounded for a day at most. He's the general's son, isn't he, he's not a Pattonite, he's not coming to Patton to listen to the Patton, he's the people of the place where he's coming. So you can find him. ”

Benjamin's brow was furrowed completely, and to be honest, he didn't quite understand what Cordy was expressing, as if the two were talking in two worlds.

"If you don't help me, then you call him. Cordy looked up at Benjamin, "My father's need for this case was an accident, because our nursery just held a press conference, didn't you come too, you see, it's all in honor of us West Side kids." If something vicious happens to the people around us, it will be a bad image for us West End kids. My father and they would not allow this kind of thing to happen, so Brother Lang's corpse, the body was discovered, and the case was characterized as an accident, in the morning, Uncle Lang and Aunt Lang were still praying, and they were sent to confirm their identities halfway, and then urged to deal with the funeral......"

When Benjamin's eyebrows had nowhere to wrinkle and could only begin to constrict his pupils, Cordy continued-

"Didn't my uncle and aunt ask for a quick funeral and a small funeral? because my father didn't want to get too much attention. Benjamin, you are Lola's friend, and our friend, you help me, I want to find the truth for Brother Long. ”

was stared at by a little boy with a pair of eyes open, even if these eyes were on a face that was much wider than his peers, there was no power to touch people's hearts, and it was even a little funny, but-

"Give me more than a hundred. ”

"Oh. A hint of disappointment flashed across Cody's face, after all, just now the incitement of 'friend's help' was said, Benjamin still wants money, hey.

"Did you know that Grande hasn't failed a commission until now? Benjamin took a bill, crumpled it up, and threw it away, which Matthew could have taken as a surprise when he cleaned up.

Hope begins to take over Cody's face.

"You'd better hope that your commission doesn't set a record, Zach will be upset. ”

"So you're all going to help! You, Zach, and Detective Lance! The whole of Grande is going to help...... No, it's my commission!"

Benjamin pouted, so smart, what else to explain himself. (To be continued.) )
