3 The commission of 'Benjamin'

When Zach returned to Grande, it was already afternoon, looking at his calm demeanor, it should have achieved his goal, casually threw the newspaper to Benjamin, who was dangling in the hammock, and looked at James who was packing luggage in the back of the car, "Need help?"

James' attic was renovated, and he was moving home.

"No, I don't. James snapped into the back compartment, "It's okay to show up in the evening." ”

Wednesday's game night also happened to be a celebration party for the new look of James' old home.

"Of course. "Zach looked at Benjamin, 'Benjamin' to be exact, you know. Zach didn't say anything, and continued to look back at James, "Don't you really need any congratulatory gifts?"

"No, I don't. James pouted.

"You don't believe in my taste for gifts?" Zach was persistent, but really wanted to congratulate James on the completion of the attic's renovation? It's just that......

"Not at all. James glared at Zach, "You're just trying to get rid of what Wes gave you!"

was ruthlessly dismantled.

Wes's thank you gift is indeed a gadget, but it is really an embarrassing thing.

It's an antique poker deck, A to K are the thirteen clans of vampires, and the big and small ghosts are heaven and hell. It's really an old thing that even Zach will miss a little, but it's also really embarrassing - all the patterns are feminine, especially Toredo, who has a pair of eyes that make people fascinated.

When Zach accepted the gift, he refused, but unfortunately Jason, who was just an errand boy, said, "You take it, he said you must accept it." Zach, take it, I can't beat him. ”

So Zach took it.

Don't worry, everyone in the Grande is curious about this 'peculiar' set of antique poker, so we don't need to ask. Zach's explanation is as follows-

"When the colonists began to invade, the Thirteen Clans and the human army were allies, and they were not allowed to think too much, and we vampires were by their side, fighting against the In'an. In order for those soldiers not to be afraid of us, such poker appeared......

"Each card highlights the characteristics of the Thirteen Clans, such as Toredo's eyes, Lessenlab's crooked tongue (licking), Gangaro's beast half (shapeshifting), Nophil hiding in the veil (hidden), and Fanzhuo (bloodline) stepping on the throne......

"It is convenient for ordinary human soldiers to understand us and accept us, and when they are resting and gambling for a game or two, it will play a subtle role......

"However, it is the ancestor of Mokawi who painted these portraits of women, and I don't want to explore why the Thirteen Clans in her eyes are in this form, so don't ask me. However, I was very curious as to why Wes had such a thing in his hands, and I thought it was all destroyed after the war......"

Burn it, Zach feels a little sorry again, keep it, to tell the truth, Zach himself looked at the J, he was a little shy.

Let's talk about a small detail. The ace of this deck is Mokawi, and it's exactly the same as the wanted sketch in the newspaper last Sunday, the one provided by Zach. In other words, Mokawi painted himself as A, and the plain one was just a sketch, and the other clans were all bewitching and feminine. Why? Zach said he didn't want to find out, and we couldn't have known the answer.

However, it can be thought that Wes should have seen the wanted portrait and had the heart to give this thing to Zack as a thank you gift.

Zack's face did not change in the slightest after being debunked, "How come, that's my gift, I'll treasure it." "It's a broken box in the warehouse to the south...... No, in Georgina's hands, she has been playing cards with herself these days, "How can I be casual and sloppy about your gifts, hehe." ”

James didn't bother to pay attention to it, and pouted, "I don't need you to care about me so much. Glancing at Benjamin, "You still care about your own family." "Benjamin just took a commission. ”

"Ugh. Benjamin, the wolf, showed his head behind the newspaper he was reading, "James, can't you just let me read the newspaper first?"

Zach had gone to the North End in the morning with the wrong newspaper, so the 'Benjamin' argument was valid.

Zach was already frowning and looked at 'Benjamin', "Commission?"

"Ugh. Benjamin gave a casual expression, "It's your former customer, so I'll take it for you, I don't think you have any opinions." ”

Zach didn't really want to communicate with Benjamin like this, and looked at James.

"Don't look at me, people are leaving when I come back. James got into the car, pursed his lips, glanced at Benjamin, started without saying a word, and drove away. Don't even give Zach a chance to ask who the person who left is. There should be a reason.

"What a commission. Zach could only look back at Benjamin and pull out the newspaper, and his face was not good. Wolf Benjamin, equals trouble, Daisy's thing, not so quick to forget it, "Who is allowed you to think I have no opinion." ”

'Benjamin' actually put on a hurt look and pressed it to his chest, "My vampire friend, how can you say that? Then the movement turned into a strange kneading, and then reached into the squeak and began to scratch. It turned into a self-muttering, "The humanoid body is really amazing, it can actually do this kind of action." ”

Have you ever seen a wolf scratch his armpit, no, it's considered a day of knowledge.

Zach didn't know what to put on a face, "We shouldn't have any extra benefits until Earl helped Grande solve the financial hole, that is, we shouldn't have any extra work." "Zach is quite capable, and he actually came up with a fair and honest reason.

"Of course!" said Benjamin, smuggling, as he began to shake the hammock, "so I forfeited his deposit." ”

Zach frowned this time, speechless, "Don't talk nonsense, just tell me what commission." ”

"The one called Green. ”

Mr. Green?Zach continued to frown, still speechless, no one would have killed himself, no wonder James was running fast. Fortunately, it's not.

"He told a little secret of his own-" The elongated tail note was 'Benjamin' hanging Zack's appetite.

Zach was not fooled and stared at the wolf.

Benjamin held on for a moment, giving in to Toredo's hooked eyes, "The secret of the sanitarium. He said the nursing home had a hidden business that didn't make people disappear like Grande used to be. Benjamin waved his hand and said, "He seems to know that the current Grande is not just doing the business of the old Grande." "The end of the interruption" is to make people reappear. ”

Zach sat down next to him and could only continue to listen to the explanation.

"The original sanatorium was a very safe place for Tibetans, and if you knew what he meant, the insane asylum in the emerging cities of the East, no one would care what people were there, so they could reappear by transporting people from outside to Barton and keeping them in sanatoriums that were not being noticed, and avoiding the limelight. ”

Zach began to think and came to a conclusion, "Are you telling me that Green is our peer?"

"No, I'm talking about black professions in the light. Benjamin looked at Zach with a smile, "Don't you wonder what people were in that place that shouldn't be outside?"

"Go on. Zach gestured.

Green said that nursing homes have not received such business for a long time, and of course, such business comes from above. "Benjamin chuckled, not forgetting that the nursing home was actually the property of the West Side, it belonged to the Barton family, and the reason why the Barton family had the first mayor of Barton City was because he provided education and medical care to Barton. Come to think of it, it's very convenient, isn't it, "The last time he received such a business, the Queen's Pochi barely counted, and the next time it was when his father was in charge of the nursing home......"

was interrupted, "Focus. ”

'Benjamin' didn't have any opinion, "Anyway, he received such a business again this time, but it was not a request from above." "Are you saying it has nothing to do with the people of the West End?" 'Benjamin' picked," he said, saying that he didn't know why, but outside of Barton, it seemed that some people in the Midlands had discovered his side business in a small nursing home in an Oriental city, and took the initiative to make business contacts. Ask to come to this little place of Barton, unnoticed, hehe, 'recuperate'. ”

Zach pursed his lips and glanced at Benjamin, "You shouldn't have answered." "Doesn't sound like it has anything to do with Barton, does it.

"Don't jump to conclusions, you haven't heard what the commission is. "'Benjamin' smiled and blinked, as if to foretell a surprise to come.

Zach didn't care, no matter what the commission was, it was all Green and the nursing home's own business.

"That Green wants to take over the business. But, don't want the real boss above him to find out. Probably sensing that Zack's patience was running out, Benjamin quickened his voice, "His exact words, 'My heir is no longer in this world, and I may be replaced by the above at any time.'" I want to use this business to give myself a little security, whether it is to become a bargaining chip against the boss in the future, or just for money, I want to take over this business, I need help. ’”

"Grande didn't have anything to help him. "Zach waved his hand, anyway, 'Benjamin' is not a client, our vampires can be indifferent at will," he solves his own business. ”

'Benjamin' said to himself, "The official documents for the transfer will pass through the hospital in the south side of Barton, and although Mr. Barton (the head of the family, Lola's father) is not in the medical system right now (in education, so Lola used to willfully ask her father to help her with the school to help Park Elementary School), he will still get a report back to the general, and Green wants us to make these official documents disappear for a short time, as long as they are not discovered by the Barton family." The business he took over privately was considered safe. ”

Zach pouted, sounding like a very simple matter.

"Simple, right. Benjamin, who is a wolf, seems to be very sensitive, "Such a simple thing, I think even you are embarrassed to refuse." ”

Zach looked at 'Benjamin', "The simpler the thing, the more suspicious it is, and I won't answer, I will ask for every detail......"

"Hehe, of course, do you think that Green is going to be honest about his little secret about the nursing home in the first place?" ”

It's already obvious that the real Benjamin won't ask at all, at most - "Wait for Zach to come back." "The real Benjamin doesn't inquire about other people's secrets. The 'Benjamin' in front of him was really a problem, and the devil knows what method he used to get Green to tell the story. You know, the relationship between Grande and the West End is not ordinary, Lola is still a friend of Grande, and Green will not be stimulated by a little bit, and honestly say that he wants to make a small move behind the back of the Barton family?!

"Just these two days. "Benjamin doesn't care what Zach is thinking," Green said he would let us know when he got the news of the transfer of the documents. Smiled, "If you don't want to do it, I can go." He raised an eyebrow and pressed his chest again, "I mean, me." ”

Give a reason to let this guy occupy Benjamin's body for a few more days?

Zach waved his hand, "I don't need you." "I wanted to mock, werewolves aren't good at making files disappear, it's okay to make living things disappear. But Zach found out that it would taunt the real Benjamin, forget it. Shaking his head, he stood up, "Aside from you taking this commission, is there anything else going on in Grandry that doesn't take your turn to interfere?" ”

"Even if I wanted to, there was nothing for me to interfere with. "'Benjamin' seemed to be grieving," Louise and Matthew were arranging that Pierce's funeral, Alice went to school, and Ink, uh, Ink, ignored me. Hank, I don't even see a figure......"

Feeling Zach's loneliness a few days ago, he deserved it.

"It was Koft who called. "When Zach was about to leave satisfied, 'Benjamin' slowly got to the point, absolutely deliberately," said that Allen's public auction was closed, he didn't play a role, and somehow he didn't have a job (Grande), and he didn't collect Grande's final payment, so let us know. ”

Zach pursed his lips and nodded in understanding.

"Then not long after, someone from Allen's funeral home called, that Mr. Allen. "Still on purpose, waiting for Zach to walk away before 'Benjamin' spoke again," he said, adding that his Allen was not for sale, also under notice. ”

Zach didn't want to pay attention to it, and walked away, anyway, he heard it, and for this 'Benjamin', there was no need to pay attention to etiquette respect.

He also said that he would like to thank you for providing information so that he can see the villain around him clearly. Benjamin picked up the newspaper again, and continued slowly, "He wanted to thank him with a thank-you gift like he did last time, but he forgot it." ”

Zach had already approached the warehouse to the south, and there was no disturbance-Georgina today, was it time, or was it a good time for James to leave, how could Zach miss it?

"It's good to turn it into an actual commission. "'Benjamin' continues," he said. It seems that he 'accidentally' killed the villain, and he wanted to deal with it himself, hehe, but he still felt that it was better to leave it to a professional. Yes, that's what he said. ”

Zach had already opened the warehouse door and glanced at Georgina, who was playing the flop.

Closing the warehouse door again, he looked at Benjamin with a gloomy face.

"Did you feel my sweetness? Benjamin flipped through the newspaper, "Hurry up, I'm taking the commission, but I know you won't be happy that I'm doing it on my own, hehe, so, the body should have been lying in Allen's house for three or four hours, you have to hurry, Reipt is going to be out of school."
