6 Emilia, telephone
"Told you all?" Zach's little bit of caution, we know, he would just go around in circles until the other party said it.
Emilia watched Zach sit down, just watched, didn't respond, and was quiet for a while before - "Hmph, don't you pour yourself 'wine'." β
"It's not a good habit to drink at noon. Zach replied, putting his hands flat on the table, otherwise he would really habitually pour 'wine', "You don't seem to have a good rest, and you're busy at work?"
The corners of Amilia's mouth twitched, and she tilted her head, as if fed up with Zack's pretense, "Do you mean my job or the asylum?"
Zach pursed his lips, and Emilia was smart, and began to circle around, then, "Of course it's my job." Zach smiled slightly, "I thought the shelter was your amateur public welfare project, and since it was an amateur, it shouldn't take up too much of your own time, right?" β
Amilia's mouth moved, probably swallowing back something, and she actually smiled, "You're right, shouldn't, I can't put the cart before the horse, the shelter is just a side-by-side project, I shouldn't let it take up too much of my time." Hehe, there's no need for it, the director is back, Harrison is back. β
"Yes. Zach nodded, "It's good to be back, right?" Glancing at Emilia again, she was verbose, "It's good to be back, you say yes." β
"Yes. Emilia kept smiling, but the corners of her eyes twitched and she stopped talking.
Zach pursed his lips, not knowing how to continue. Can you understand the strange atmosphere between the two at this time? In Amilia's eyes, Zach is a hypocritical liar - she knows what happened to Harrison from beginning to end, but she keeps it a secret. In Zack's eyes, Emilia is a ...... Nothing. This means that Zach does not owe Emilia any responsibility or obligation to explain his actions.
There was a moment of silence. Emilia shook her head suddenly, and smiled. "Forget it, I don't want to pursue anything. β
Zach also shook his head, "Pursue?"
Emilia didn't seem to bother to respond, and glanced at Zack, "I'll think Harrison left Barton to avoid the limelight......"
Amilia's words. Harrison made up the reason for his disappearance - a large number of hunters appeared at Barton, severely affecting his food needs, and he had to leave Barton to stock up on food. (Harrison's death occurred when the hunters came to Barton to look for 'Colt', and a hungry Harrison came to ask for help from Grande, and met Thomas's family on the way, thinking that Barton had a new vampire, fulfilling Zack's interracial agreement, fighting, and dying together.) οΌ
β...... Henceforth. I'm not going to mention anything that happened in the meantime. He's back, and that's the only thing I care about. β
Zack didn't have any expression, but felt in his heart that this woman was really speechless, if there was this awareness, why bother to say that she already knew everything, isn't this adding trouble. But Zack's slander can be thrown away immediately, and Emilia is like this for a reason. Go on.
"In the morning, I handed over to him all the recent work at the shelter. Later, this project with Quinn. It's his. β
Zach interjected, "Harrison didn't lose his job?"
Emilia looked indifferent. "Do you think the director of the homeless shelter is some kind of sought-after job, if it's empty, it's empty, and no one will want to take it. β
This may have been true in the past, but it should not be so much now, the asylum belongs to the Quinn Group, which is very popular. Emilia answered the question right away.
"Mrs. Quinn wouldn't just let people get involved in the project. "It's about the legalization of something she's pushing. Naturally, "Now that Harrison is back, because of my connection, Mrs. Quinn trusts me, it doesn't matter if this position is returned to him. β
Zach raised an eyebrow. I'm glad for Harrison.
"So from now on, I have nothing to do with all the work in the shelter. "Emilia stopped here.
The point of stopping, a little strange, Zach looked at Emilia for a moment before frowning, "You don't need to tell me this. β
"Hmph. Emilia was mocking, absolutely, "No, I still want it, lest you ask me about it later when you are interested in the progress of Madame Quinn." I'll tell you right now, I don't know, go ask Harrison. β
Zach pouted, "Amilia, what does that mean? I don't think I've ever asked you anything about your asylum project. β
"No, he just used me to get Xue Pide into the asylum center. Emilia actually mentioned Shepby.
Zach pursed the corners of his lips and began to think from Emilia's point of view, "And now that he's resigning, do you think it's Harrison back, I don't need him to stay in the shelter anymore." "Yes, but see clearly, this is Emilia's point of thinking, Zach really didn't think of it before.
"I 'think' of it. Emilia sneered, "Isn't that the truth?" Her face was full of contempt for hypocrisy, "Harrison has already told me that Shepride was introduced to ...... when you didn't even know if you could resurrect him" Emilia closed her mouth and shook her head, "Don't mention it, don't mention it." β
Saying 'resurrection' should have been unintentional on Amilia's part, and we can confirm that Harrison really told her everything. But now is not the time to focus on why Harrison's tone is so loose.
Zach glanced at Amilia, "So you think that now that Harrison is back, even if he doesn't have a job, he can get news of the project from you." β
Amilia's face of disdain turned into a mocking face, probably thinking that Zach was still emphasizing 'think', which was ridiculous, "Exactly, so I'm just going to make it easy for you." She pushed her hand, "I'll hand over everything, so I don't need you to bother." If you have a question, you can ask him directly, and I have nothing to do with it. β
Zach's fingers began to twitch the table, not the unaccustomed to not having a wine glass in his hand, not the hypocrisy in Amilia's eyes, "You seem to be pretty sure that Harrison will do my bidding, and he will tell me anything I ask." β
"It's a decision. Emilia didn't want to say more, "Why, hmph, I don't bother to explain what I'm not going to talk about again." β
This attitude ...... Never mind.
Zach rolled his eyes away and began to think. Pretty quick, thought of it. Remember a conversation Harrison had with Zach about the 'outsider'? Although it may seem a little sad - Harrison died as an outsider, and he was resurrected and made the decision not to be an outsider again.
Zach looked at Emilia a little helplessly, "It's like your job." If I ask you about the asylum project, you will refuse as much as you refuse to share your patient's information, which is your attitude towards work. And then you feel now that this attitude of yours will affect Harrison's future with me, ......" Zach frowned, not thinking of the right word for a moment. Waving his hand, he skipped it all, "So for Harrison's sake, you just leave it all to him so that he can ...... it" Skip it, "Get my place here." β
Amilia's gaze was probably on the pen holder on the table, and she didn't react to Zach's words. It seems that he really made up his mind not to mention it.
Zach sighed unconsciously, this was a misunderstanding, a complete set of misunderstandings. Zach opened his mouth again. Clarify...... Shut it back, explain it clearly, forget it.
Zach had a smile on his face, quite sincere, "I used to think it was a little ......" I didn't think of the right words for a while, so I skipped it, "Now I find that you really love each other." "Zach spreads his hands," one spent a week trying to figure out what to say without worrying the other party. As a result, I still can't lie when we meet. A ...... who is willing to give up a project that has been busy for so long in order to deal with it"
"You don't need to rate us here!" Emilia glared at Zach.
Zach raised his hand, "I'm sorry. I won't say anything. The gentleman had to dare to admit his mistakes, "Well, is that why you came, and is there anything else?"
There was really something else, but it was obviously not taken seriously by Emilia at all, and she stood up and prepared to leave. While saying, "Tell James that his psychotherapy is over." With a slight mockery, "I don't have a side project now, I'm not busy." I don't need him as an excuse to give myself a holiday. β
Zach also stood up, and the gentleman was going to open the door for the lady, "Okay, I'll let him know." "Look at the direction Amelia is walking, it is actually the door on the east side, the way out of Grande, not back to the restaurant. Is she leaving, saying goodbye to someone rudely?
Emilia didn't seem to want to say anything more, and didn't thank someone for opening the door, and walked straight out.
"Amilia. Zach spoke again, in a somewhat strange tone, "You seem to have pushed all the ties with Grande away, and I have a feeling that it seems like we'll see each other again in the future, right?"
Isn't it, Brian's affair has long been over, relying on Zack's mediation and Mrs. Quinn's asylum project to hand over to Harrison, and ending the patient relationship with James. Emilia, who has always appeared in Grande's life because of indirect character relationships, has now taken the initiative to push away these relationships.
Emilia glanced at Zach, "I hope so." "I really didn't say goodbye, I left.
Zack pursed his lips and nodded, it is understandable, Emilia has stated more than once that she doesn't want to have intersections with other races, Harrison is helpless in the relationship, Zach is nothing. When you can avoid it, of course, seize the opportunity and stay away.
Zack, who already understood Emilia's attitude, didn't send much, and saw Emilia turn around when he walked out of Grande's main entrance, and was about to go downstairs to the back porch to continue chatting with Xue Pide about his future plans, but he bumped into Xue Pide going upstairs.
It's also to say goodbye, "Now that it's been decided, I have to find a place to live in advance." He smiled a little embarrassedly, "I have been living in a place arranged in the shelter before, and if I don't have a place to live after resigning, I'm afraid I can only sleep in the cargo box." "It's still the car that Zach sent, remember, Grande's old van," things should be very busy these days, I'll go back to the North End first." β
Zach was naturally encouraged, "Of course, you go, if you can't find it, you know you can come to Grande at any time......" Zach realized that Grande had no vacant rooms, only haystacks, and smiled awkwardly.
"No, I've been taken care of too much by you, I'll find a place. β
Zach nodded, he wanted to send it down in person, but the phone rang.
"You're busy, I'm leaving. Xue Pide smiled and waved his hand, turned around quickly and consciously, and disappeared at the staircase without giving Zack a chance to be polite.
Zach still paused for a moment, listening to Shepride say goodbye to the people in the restaurant one by one before officially leaving, and couldn't help but think of Emilia again. Zach shook his head, this is Barton, as a ghoul's girlfriend, and a chance to say goodbye to a vampire...... Forget it, without further ado, the phone ringing has stopped once and rings again. Calls to Grande are so persistent.
Zach picked up the phone, and Sbella's voice was angry, "Didn't you tell us anything?!Are you naΓ―ve?! Max and Katie went to Grande early in the morning! You didn't say anything? Are you sick?"
Zach blinked, a little confused, "Notification what?"
"Boyson's corpse!"
"Uh......" Zach almost habitually went to get the drink, but fortunately he reacted quickly and stopped, "Need to notify you?" Zach was a little confused, "Uh, wait a minute, how do you know?"
"James told me!"
It couldn't be a surprise.
"Okay, so what do you want to know about this?" Zach didn't really feel like he needed to tell Sbella about this.
Almost two weeks ago, when the news of Boyson's suicide appeared, Zach also specifically consulted Sbella: Is there anything to watch out for when a wizard commits suicide. But at that time, Sbella replied to Zach with a mocking attitude-
Do you think that it is the same as your faith in the Holy Lord, and it is up to you to die no matter what? (The Holy Lord believes that suicide is a sin and will go to hell) Hmph, ignorance. β
Zach naturally judged that this was what Sbella was saying, not careless, not caring.
Sbella on the other side of the earpiece was even more angry, "What are you doing? He's a wizard who was transformed by Papa Midnight! I want to know anything he does!!"
Zach pouted, and became even more confused, he misjudged?"So, you know now, and then what?"
And then ...... And then?" the earpiece was so inexplicably silent for a moment, "I don't know. β
Zach frowned, waited for a while and didn't hear anything from there, and shook his head helplessly, "Sbella, do you have something to do with this call?" β
"Tsk. "At least Sbella wasn't so excited," James told me the reason he had sent someone to Boyson's original workshop to check things up, and I forced him to ask......
Zach wasn't very interested in what was going through, and Sbella didn't have to explain it to James, Zach himself would ask, "Don't be so specific." β
"James told me that he's still trying to determine if the body is Boyson, so he needs his 'old things' comparison. "Maybe it's hair or something," he didn't want to alarm the Western Police Department first......
Zach raised his eyebrows, naturally, the West District Police Department that arrested Boyson, and the handling after Boyson's suicide was also on the West Side side. If James, the North Side detective, had been kicked out if he had just taken Zack's judgment that 'hey, the body of the criminal who committed suicide on your side and was disposed of by you has floated to the North Side' and asked for cooperation.
"Check for yourself first. Sbella paused, "I don't have time to wait for James's side to slowly confirm, I'm just asking you now, how sure are you, that body is Boysen!"
Zach pursed his lips, "Very." β
Immediately after, Zach was about to ask what the call was for......
"Come and see me!" hung up. (To be continued.) )
