"Zach, phone. Louise knocked on the kitchen door and spoke to Zack.

These days, the phone in Zack's office usually stops when the ring ends, and then the phone on Louise's desk rings, and if Louise can't solve the other party's request, he will be transferred to Zach again.

As it has been stated in the answer to the original phone number, please call the new number if you have a funeral service.

But this time, the caller seemed unusually persistent.

Zach returned to his office and picked up the phone.

"What are you doing, why did it take so long to answer the phone!" was James's voice.

"Make lunch. Zach was more or less accustomed to the human's impatient tone, "Detective Reims, everyone in the Grande House needs to eat. And vampires know what to say, and they can tug at James's most fragile nerves.

The sound of James breathing deeply came from the earpiece.

"I just called to tell you that Neil and Daphne woke up!" said in a vicious tone, "You'd better get ready!"

"I've heard, it's a good thing, congratulations to Quest. "Today's newspaper has already covered it. The best way to wait for the funeral to end is to read the newspaper to pass the time. However, Zach's 'congratulations' was obviously not very sincere, but he was a little puzzled, what did this have to do with him? ”

James on the other side of the earpiece seemed to be organizing the language, and he opened his mouth several times but said nothing.

Zach frowned, deciding to ask himself, "Did you go to Quest?"

"It's Quest looking for me again!" said James, with a great deal of resentment in his tone, "he thought I would know something!"

"What do you know?" Zach wondered even more, "How did the two of them disappear? Why don't you ask you faster?" ”

"That's the problem!" James's agitation, "those two don't know anything! Ever since they woke up, they've been in a state of confusion, like crazy people! they've been shouting 'don't hurt me' or whatever! The police can't ask anything useful!"

Zach chuckled, "So, you must think that's not crazy, right?"

"Yes! Something attacked them!"

Zach frowned, "Be specific." ”

"There's nothing to be like!" said James, angrily, "I said, the two of them are insane. Something more than they could describe in words had attacked them, and that was the only thing that could be confirmed!"

Zach thought for a moment, "James, did you throw this to us Grande again?"

"Of course, what else can I do?!It was you who started it, I just told him who he was looking for, and who he went to look for!" James became visibly irritated, "Quest keeps persecuting the police, exerting pressure, but what can we do?! The police can't persecute two mentally disturbed people!"

"You're shifting responsibility. Zach sighed, "I should tell you, Daniel has not heard from him so far, even if Quest commissioned me to find the 'murderer', I didn't do it......"

Zach paused abruptly, "Wait. James, what the hell is going on. ”

James Lance is telling the victim's family, 'The police can't solve it, go find someone else', which is not in line with the vampire's perception of James's character. At most, James asked Grande to assist him in his investigation, and he would never lose all the work to Zack!

Zach said tentatively, "You're avoiding any more contact with Quest, you're trying to get rid of him." ”

Listening to the rapid breathing in the earpiece, Zach's tentative results came to fruition, "You're investigating Quest, what clues did you find, right?"

There was silence for a moment before James over there replied in a low voice, "Yes, but it has nothing to do with you!"

Zach pondered for a moment and smiled, "You must have found something serious enough to fit our previous speculation and constitute the motivation for the disappearance to reappear......"

"Stop! I won't tell you!At least not now!" James on the other side of the earpiece raised his voice and interrupted Zach, "Anyway, you get ready! And you can't cross the line! I'll do my job, you do yours, find the real perpetrator!"

Zach smiled and understood what James meant, "Okay, Detective Lance. ”

Hanging up the phone, the vampire was in a good mood and pulled out a wine glass. Vampires are probably the easiest creatures in the world to prepare food.

"What are you laughing at?" Benjamin, who entered the office, looked at Zack, sitting at his desk, fiddling with the pen holder on the desk. The werewolf came here to wait for lunch after nothing happened. As a werewolf who can only knead dough, Alice doesn't expect Benjamin to contribute in the kitchen, but Matthew seems to know a little bit about everything and is helping out in the kitchen.

"James's phone. Zach replied.

"Oh. Benjamin smiled, "What did he say?"

"He said, 'You can't cross the line, I'll do my job, you do yours. Zach squinted.

Benjamin scratched his chin, "It still sounds a little prejudiced, but I have been guided by you, and I have the meaning of truly 'working with my own will'." ”

Zach raised his eyebrows and sipped the 'wine' from his glass.

The phone rang, and it wasn't Louise who had transferred in. Zach raised an eyebrow at Benjamin and picked up the phone, "Grande House, is there anything I can do to help you?"

"It's me, Quest. A male voice in his mid-thirties came from the earpiece, "I have a new commission for you." ”

"Mr. Quest!"

Benjamin looked at Zach with a look of helpless surprise and shook his head with a smile.

"What does Mr. Quest need?"

The voice on the other side of the earpiece was cold and low, "I want someone, no matter who did this to my brother, I want that person! I don't care about the 'truth' or the 'process', I just want that person, no matter what he is, I want him! This doesn't violate your rules!"

Zach didn't speak, creating the illusion of thinking, but in fact he was just exchanging glances with Benjamin with the microphone. After a few moments, Zach made a thoughtful expression, and the drama was enough to make the voice of the past over the phone convincing.

"Nope. We Grande refuse. ”

"Why!" the other seemed to lose his composure! The voice was so loud that Benjamin could hear it clearly without the use of his alpha skin.

Zach pulled the earpiece away from his ear, rubbed his ear sideways, and raised an eyebrow at Benjamin, "The police are paying too much attention to this matter." Zach said in a tone of regret, "Since Mr. Quest was introduced by Mr. Herman, it must be understandable that we don't want to be involved with the police." ”

Don't forget, Zach basically asked Herman to 'I'm going to deal with Connor's killers,' and as a result, all but one of the hunters, who came out and didn't, all died! Of course, Herman didn't need to know that there was one person, Rivench, who became a Dead Apostle.

The other party was silent, anyone would do such a simple reasoning, and the actions of the Grande House were not allowed by law.

"Especially that James Lance. Zach winked at Benjamin, "Mr. Quest must have heard from Mr. Herman about the last commission, too. Such a detective is good for Barton, but it seems too dangerous for us. ”

The other party was still silent, and Zach had no choice but to continue, "I Jianyì Quest to hand this matter over to that Lance police officer, after all, to find your brother, he is also involved." ”

"He's not going to get involved anymore!" this time, the other party replied quickly.

"Oh?" Zach continued to pretend to be confused, "Why? Detective Lance I know doesn't look like a man who gives up lightly. ”

"My brother...... Neil ...... "The other party's voice was full of hatred, and the vampire could clearly hear the sound of the breath of excitement and confusion, and the transformation of guò electrons transmitted to the vampire's ears, "He, he's crazy!"

A suppressed bass came out of the earpiece, and Zach frowned. Now that he was a little shaken, the speculation that Quest was the one who had led his brother's disappearance had been made when he had not been in contact with Quest, and it didn't seem like a person who 'strongly hoped' his brother's disappearance to come out.

"What's there...... Uh, what a rule!, what the police said. The person on the other side of the earpiece seemed to be in extreme anger, "They say, people who say that they are mentally unstable, well, such a person, what he says, cannot be used as a testimony, cannot be admitted!

Occupied by both sadness and anger, Quest even spoke intermittently, but the meaning was already fully expressed.

Zach and Benjamin exchanged glances, "Did Neil say anything?

They said...... I don't know! I don't want to know! It's your job!"

Zach thought about it, this time he was really thinking, but the content of the thinking was not whether to accept the commission or not. It doesn't make a difference whether to accept it or not, because the suspect in Zack's mind is missing, and he can directly reply to the commission with 'solved'.

Devoted to Quinn because Alice has a crush on Lady Quinn, Lady Barton because Lady Quinn revealed some of Grande's secrets, and Cunn because of Zarch's desire for revenge.

Nothing seems to be there to Quest?uh. But now Zach has wavered in his judgment, and that's what he thinks.

"Mr. Quest, are the police now dropping this case? ”

"Yes!"

"Okay, then we accept it. But we can't guarantee results. ”

"Yes!"

"Where are Neil and Daphany now?"

"Hospital. ”

"Bring it out. Mr. Quest, I hope you understand that we don't want to be in the public spotlight. ”

"Okay, you ...... in the afternoon."

Zach didn't wait for the other party to finish and hung up the phone. Quest is a man of control, and Zach is not prepared to give the other party a sense of control, although the two parties have the same intentions.

In the afternoon, avoiding the fierce midday sun, Benjamin's van left the Grand House and drove on Route 27 to the Quest Manor in the West End.
