Chapter 17: The Galloping Wind
Early in the morning, Benjamin's mud-covered van left the Grande House and headed for Barton North. Halfway through, two dazed hunters were left behind.
The hunter's attention to the House of Grande has been erased by the fictitious memories of the vampire's enchanting pupil. In the memories of the two hunters, there was no vampire blood bank in the Grande House, no werewolf hair in the straw in the warehouse, and no unusual alertness on the old man with a strange temper. It's just an ordinary funeral business.
Both Zach and Benjamin realized that their lives at the Grande House were too comfortable.
After a night's rest, Benjamin's face was still not very good, and the dilapidated radio was able to escape this round of ravage, and the two sat quietly in the car and arrived at [Patton Mercy Hospital]. But the two don't go inside, and in order to take care of patients with limited mobility, the hospital will hang mirrors in the corners of the ceiling at the turn, where the vampire Zach will be very easily exposed.
When James walked out of the hospital and got into the car, Benjamin started the truck again and drove away from the hospital.
Near midnight last night, James called. After confirming that James was okay, Zach breathed a sigh of relief.
"How's it going?" Zach looked sideways at James sitting in the back seat, the young detective wearing a high-necked coat that covered the mark on his neck and gauze on his chin.
"Vital signs have stabilized dìng ......"
"I'm not asking about that. The vampire interrupted James, "Have you explained who you are?"
James frowned, the vampire's coldness made James a little uncomfortable. However, in the phone call, the two sides have exchanged their experiences last night, and James can understand the vampire's coldness.
"I explained it as we discussed earlier. James lowered his eyes: "'The monster that intercepted me has been killed by me, and I am now investigating other monsters in Barton City that may be in Zài. ’”
Zach nodded, "Does he trust you?" ”
"The purpose of taking him to the hospital is to make him trust. James said indifferently that he didn't feel good at the moment. Because what he just said was that Zach sued him after he had dealt with the shapeshifter.
Until he was attacked by the hunters, James didn't think he would do what Zach 'told', so he would perfunctory Anthony's advice. After seeing Zach, Benjamin, and King, James always had a hint of illusion about 'The Hunter'. And that illusion ended last night.
Please understand that James had no idea in his previous life that there were these supernatural alien beings in this world, let alone hunters! James was groping for ways to get along with these 'people' who seemed to have emerged from the New World.
"What's your report to the police department?" Zach asked. Any hospital has an obligation to call the police when accepting a patient with a gunshot wound, and James, as a police detective, will certainly not stop it, in fact, this is to show the hunter that he has nothing to hide, that is, in James's mouth, to gain the trust of the other party.
"Louise. James took a few deep breaths, he didn't like to lie, but last night, he told too many lies, "Louise was robbed, and the prisoner took my gun and shot the helper during the fight. ”
"Louise came up with this story?" Zach smiled, "where is she?"
"I don't know, after recording the confession, she left. James shook his head, as if remembering something: "I thought she had been with you all along." ”
Zack's face reverted to cold: "She left." What did she do with you yesterday?"
"I don't know, she didn't say. James frowned, and he didn't seem to have time to say a word of thanks to the woman who suddenly appeared and saved his life!
Zach was silent for a moment, shook his head, and continued to say to James, "Anthony said that you are going to investigate the identity of the hunter. Don't look into it, I already asked last night. ”
"I've found it. James leaned against the window, and this was the result of his afternoon of running yesterday, and the document pierced by the steel needle recorded the information of the Indian hunters who attacked him.
Zach glanced at James, the general's son was still very reliable. Last night's encounter caught everyone off guard, and no one expected the hunter's action to be so intense.
"James, don't come into contact with them. "I should be thankful for what happened last night, and now James should be seriously thinking about this,Zach leaned sideways, looking at the detective in the back seat sincerely, "I know, you must have some illusions about hunters, and now, this fantasy can be thrown away." They are a dangerous bunch. ”
"I know. James didn't want to see the vampire, and stared out the window at the receding scene.
A person who is not dangerous will not hide in someone else's house with a crossbow that can pierce through the iron door and attack his master. People who are not dangerous do not take advantage of the heating to stun people on half the street, the reason why no one reacted to the gunfire when James encountered the ghoul.
"Now, he'll think you're the same kind of person as him, someone driven by revenge, and you must draw a line with him!" Zach is not alarmist, the hunter's recruitment method is to find people who have been hurt by foreign races, and use hatred to drive people to a completely different route from ordinary life.
Of course, there is another reason for the meaning of Zach's words, everyone will know soon, don't worry.
James's brow furrowed even tighter, the general's son didn't like vampires to lecture him, "I don't need to say it, I know for myself! Where are we going now?" James noticed his surroundings, the street was separated by red and white barricades, the tiles had been turned up, and the dirt had been piled up on the side of the road, apparently the street was under construction.
Benjamin found a fast-food restaurant, stopped the car, and shook his head: "You can get off." ”
"What?" James looked up in the back seat, "what is this place, is it [Becky Street]? It's a dozen blocks away from where I live!"
"Get out of the car, James. Zach leaned back in his chair and rubbed his eyes, "At least we've found you a place to have breakfast." ”
James reluctantly pushed the car door, watched the truck continue to drive forward, frowned, if memory serves, the front is [Reipt High School], what are they going to do there? This question was quickly squeezed away by hunger and exhaustion, the last time James ate was when he sent Cousson home yesterday, Mrs. Couson habitually stuffed the biscuits to him, obviously, Mrs. Cousson still retained the impression of James's 'gluttony'. After that, James ran around the city of Barton, investigating the identity of the Indians who had entered Barton in recent days, and when he returned home, he was attacked, and then he went to the hospital, took a confession (lying), waited for the Indian to be operated on, clarified his identity (lying), and met with vampires and werewolves, until now.
James pushed open the door of the fast-food restaurant and decided to grab a good bite to eat and go home to catch up on sleep.
It's time to tell you all about James's results yesterday afternoon, the name of the Indian hunter who is now lying in the ward is - Rivench Hurricane (Vengeful Ge Galloping Wind), he is not a Patton, but his parents and live in Patton City, he also has a younger brother, oh correction, he used to have a younger brother.
