9 Sem's funeral
Sam's funeral went on in a proper manner. It's time for the burial ceremony.
As in the farewell ceremony in the church, even though the obituary was sent out early, no one but Grande attended the funeral.
Father Danse was reciting the prayers that had almost been uttered, his eyes staring blankly at the glazed spectators in front of the cemetery, his lips opening and closing mechanically, "...... Return to the ...... of the Holy Lord"
"Does Sam believe in the Holy Lord?" someone interrupted.
It's not someone else, it's ink.
Everyone's eyes were on this white-clad republican cook—wasn't that who Mo was to Grande. The white clothes that resembled a burlap bag were a little out of place with the black of this piece.
But, thanks to Mo, this is only a funeral with the participation of Grande employees, which is a little bit of a funeral.
Why do you say that? Okay --
As for Sam's relationship with Grande, we already knew it, didn't we? Remember the confrontation between Evan and Zack. Sam, in Grande, no friends.
As an independent, unsociable person, don't expect anyone to be willing to waste hours of their time remembering you after you die.
As a direct consequence, the funeral process will be pulled at an unusually fast pace because no one wants to stay here.
Can you imagine the group of people in the church staring at the dead fish in a daze when Father Dans finished reciting the canon and continued to ask the formulaic question, "Does anyone want to say something to our deceased person who was loved in this world, Samuel xxx?"
It's good that there is ink.
Mo was the one who stood beside the coffin dressed in white, bathing in the 'love' emanating from the statue of the Son, "I remember when Sam first came to Grande, there was a little unpleasantness between us. Hehe, I remember that Grande has a 'tradition', newcomers will be taken care of by the master, I bullied Danny when I first arrived in Grande, does anyone still remember Danny~ Later, Sem bullied me when he came......"
As you can imagine, after Father Dan fled as if he were fleeing, no matter how reluctant and reluctant Grande's employees were, they had to fill up the time for the process.
At this time, it seems that the situation is about to be repeated.
Mo walked out of the crowd dressed in white, tilting his head and pointing to the coffin that was being guarded by several employees and ready to be buried at any time, "I've actually been quite curious, our funerals seem to be this process, priests, pastors or something, it seems that not everyone in the Federation believes in the Holy Lord, why do any funerals have to come like this?"
Mo smiled, as a guest attending the funeral, Mo smiled a little often, "Matthew, did you choose the coffin?" Yes, wasn't it the funeral arrangement that Zach asked Matthew and Charlie to handle, and was complained about by Old Hank, "The coffin you chose was stuffed with 'Soul Attracting Grass' in the mezzanine, because Sam is an Indian, right?" Hehe, but we don't know yet, there are no outsiders here~" Mo looked around, "We all know that those 'soul-attracting grass' are just weeds~ Speaking of the funeral rites of the Zeng Yin'an people, in the end, only this boring thing was preserved?"
Father Dans, who was interrupted, was actually in a daze.
Mo looked over without warning, "No offense, Father, it's just that you just said that you would return to the Holy Lord, and I suddenly thought of it." When Father Danse's eyes appeared and wanted to escape again, Mo had already turned his gaze away, and looked at old Hank with a gloomy face, "How can we say that it is also a benchmark for the funeral industry, we have all held a republican funeral (Allen funeral), why don't we try to restore the Yin'an funeral?"
The reason for Old Hank's gloom - if it weren't for Mo jumping out from time to time to drag the process, the funeral would have been over a long time ago.
Old Hank didn't have time to speak. Bain.
Bane came with his family, and most of the time he was with his wife and son, and now he stood up for some reason, "I think Mo is right. ”
Bane ignored the gloomy look from old Hank and continued, "Sem and I are kind of familiar. "There's no need to deny it, after all, before the gang in prison came, Bane and Sem were the only residents of the Grande living area for a while. Remember the defense that Sam prepared for the Bane family when he was preparing for Eli Toredo's attack.
"The two of us are relatively early employees of Grande. Occasionally, we talk about things. "It's also a fact, remember that Bane didn't find Sem twice, and ran straight to the table inside Grande. That's right, it's Bane who realizes that there is something invisible in Grande that is converging in the circle that belongs to Grande's core, and he's not in it.
"Hank should know. Bane mentioned Old Hank, but didn't look at Old Hank, "You just cleared the things out of Sem's apartment the other day. "Old Hank moved to the living quarters, occupying Sam's room, deliberately angry with Zack, don't forget," his apartment is full of Indo-An cultural decorations, dolls, herbs and the like. I chatted with him occasionally, and I also talked about Indo-Ann culture. I think he deserves a funeral that belongs to his own culture. ”
The old man still didn't have time to speak.
Almost jumped out, in an angry, irritated tone, in the cemetery, not afraid to disturb the loud noise of many deceased...... "What do you mean! It's the end of the process! We're going to do it all over again?!"
Just ask a question. If Sam's funeral wasn't a funeral for a Grande employee, would anyone in this group be willing to attend?
Nope.
Zach didn't bother to come at all. Sam's life continues well, why do you want to say goodbye pretentiously. It means that people who know the truth about Sem, represented by Zach, do not need to attend the funeral. And then, now only wishing the funeral was over sooner, represented by this boisterous Evan, hehe, 'knowing' that Sam was a fake Grande employee, the one who was purged by Old Hank.
We don't need to re-emphasize Sam's interpersonal relationship with Grande, these two facts alone can determine whether the funeral will be more bleak than bleak.
The only reason for the funeral to be counted as a funeral has a fixed process is only because of Sam's status as a Grand employee.
To say something that shouldn't be said, the employees of the funeral home, the welfare should at least include the afterlife, otherwise, the cohesion of the enterprise is not too ......
Yes, all the people who are standing here waiting for the coffin to be buried, are doing surface work. Now, for a ridiculous reason, it's possible to start all over again!
"Don't just do it all over again. Mo smiled again, "We also have to investigate, research, and collect evidence, and use the Grande's iconic as the glory to restore the funeral rites that belong to Sem and the Indoans." Mo Yi raised his eyebrows, "I suggest that we go to Pai Siying, there are many people in India, let's have a good understanding of the funeral culture in Yin'an and rearrange the funeral." ”
Old Hank, but he didn't have time to speak.
Matthew who spoke this time. With Matthew's character, he should have been quiet in this atmosphere of relative contention, but he spoke up, "Hank......" Although he still felt a little hesitant, fortunately, the conversation was smooth, "When I went out with Alice and them yesterday. "Well, I forgot to mention it. Wasn't it Sunday yesterday, in the morning Alice and Maya's girls were in the room to renovate Seim, and in the afternoon they were dragged out by the high school group to make up for Saturday's missed fun trip because they were involved in the negotiations between Hamilton and Sbella. Matthew, who had been with his father in the morning, was naturally dragged out again," Lola told me that Alice was still angry. "Alice and old Hank's quarrel about 'who is my family' is not forgotten," Alice said that it was a big deal not to have Grande's last name, she was just an adopted daughter anyway. "Alice doesn't want to inherit Grande anymore?" "I think we should be able to study the funeral in the Indian style, well, you two reconcile." ”
Old Hank didn't mean to speak this time, and lowered his head with a pensive look.
Let's talk about something very realistic.
What would we do if we picked up someone in our lives who had the ability to see the events of death?
Personally, I think it's safer to have regular contact like Kate in Newton, with only one purpose, to make sure that your death doesn't come so suddenly.
Yes, it is to try to use resources in a way that does not offend the other party. Save your life.
The essence is to use, but to use it very carefully, very, uh, politely. At least I won't disturb other people's lives and abuse this power that doesn't belong to me, right?
So, are there any people who are a little more daring who would want to abuse it? After all, it's too tempting. You can see death, and you can see the magic of the future!
Some.
Zach and Benjamin. There were more poor people living on the streets and homeless, but the two alien brothers adopted only this one. It's not about disturbing the life of a person who has the ability to predict death, it's about turning the other person's life into your own, it's binding, it's the ultimate form of exploitation - we are three brothers and sisters who love each other...... Tsk, for the sake of Zach and Benjamin who genuinely love this Grande sister, we don't need them as an example.
With the old Hank now.
Old Hank told Zack that Alice was the adopted daughter of Old Grande, and no matter what was wrong with him and Zack, the idea that Alice was Grande's heir was never wavered. At that time, Zach thought that he was thinking too much with malice.
But in fact, Zach didn't think too much, he just thought crookedly. Zach thinks that the core criteria for Hank's division of Grande are aliens and humans.
On the surface, it seems that the future of aliens and humans in the future of the Grande is bound to be divided, two fundamentally different life forms that will not stand the test of time, and there seems to be nothing wrong with being the criterion for division. But the point, in fact, on the future.
It's impossible for Zach to be the master of Grande in the future, swaggering around. But, Alice, who was already an adult by then, can.
Not only can, but it will be very, very suitable. The future of the Grande planned by the elder Hank is not an honest funeral home, but a clean-up person who returns to the old Grande tradition.
Believe me, this profession will be very hot at Barton in the future. Count how many corpses have appeared in Patton since the beginning of the year, how many corpses have appeared in Patton, how many have needed to be professionally covered, and how many events would have been countless times easier if they were controlled on the dark side of the world. In the future, there will only be more and more.
The times are calling old Hank to return to his duties.
And old Hank, with a bunch of ex-convicts who came out of prison, can handle these future commissions?
There is no need to evaluate the results of Zack and James, how much do you think that Old Hank, a professional cleanup, recognizes Zack's role in various events?
Every case Zach handled, it didn't disappear. It's just presented in a different form, just like Zack's definition of the Toledo clan - the other side of the truth. And the profession of cleaning up people should be to make the case disappear without leaving a trace.
Everything that happens to Barton today could have been done better and more perfectly, if it had been handled by old Hank. The only problem is that Old Hank is not the guy he finds in every incident, and he can only watch Zach spoil everything from the sidelines.
All these grievances will be better in the future where Zach will eventually get out of Grande~ The premise is that Grande must leave a seed of Zack. Let those people, aliens, and things who create events in Barton that need to be covered up know, come, come and find an upgraded version of Grand~
Alice is that seed. Old Hank couldn't have allowed Zach to take all of Grande's aliens with him when he left.
Not only seeds, banshees...... Alice, who will definitely be a competent black witch in the future, is simply the one who was built for Grande. The revelation of the death event is so suitable for the ability to clean up the profession! How can old Hank be willing to let it go?
I remember the quarrel between Alice and Old Hank, except for Alice's sad "You're not my family, just an old man who lives in my house", the "I don't listen, I don't listen......".
Of course, it was old Hank trying to reason with Alice, and Zach couldn't stay in Grande forever as an immortal vampire. Parting is inevitable, so why not prepare for your family name and the future of the 'Grande' that gave you a real family before it happens.
It's a pity that Alice doesn't want to hear it.
That's when Alice had to listen. Restoration of the Indo-An funeral. Alice, if you want to abandon your Grande surname, don't you even want your In'an blood?
The demand for Indian culture is not only expressed in the Federation, but also the people who live in Paising.
Better yet, don't underestimate Old Hank. Old Hank thought of the person who would compel Alice to listen even more, Mrs. Quinn, the lady of the West Side, who was obsessed with Indoan culture, the lady who had been rescued by Alice and who had now booked a place for Zack's descendant. When Mrs. Quinn will also say goodbye to human life, shouldn't she prepare a funeral for this lady that will represent her life's interest?
Old Hank's musings were over, "Call it a day!"
"What?!We're going to ...... again"
Old Hank is already at the forefront, and he has already planned the task of restoring the Indo-An funeral, which is Zack's. reason, let the elder brother tell the younger sister.
