Zack...... Sitting on a bench in the center of the City Hall Square, holding a metal bottle in his hand. Not his snack jar, but Gangaro's relic, the blood of Gangaro containing the key to Heaven's Gate.

Why is Zach sitting here? Because Zach is a citizen of Barton, he can sit wherever he wants!

Let's not talk about that yet.

Let's talk about how Zach got here.

After coming out of Grande, Zach went directly to Sissi's villa, no one was home, just in time, Zach found Gangero's blood, put it away, and then went to the North End.

Grande is a bunch of people waiting for Zack to bring back the 'answer', and it stands to reason that, no, according to Zack's previous way of dealing with people, he will go to Sissi's soul and ask if there is something going on in purgatory.

But the current Zach is not the Zach of the past.

Zach already realized that in Barton, he was no longer the character who was going to give whatever others asked for......

Heh, Zach wasn't supposed to be that kind of character. I still remember that when Zach and Benjamin came to the city eleven years ago, they were the top of the city's creatures. The combination of vampires and alpha can easily dominate the city.

However, we know that the vampires and alpha did not do this, they cleansed and eliminated the disobedient aliens, signed a coexistence agreement with the remaining aliens, hehe, picked up Anthony, a veteran military friend, and then at the request of this human friend, 'rolled' to the Grande funeral home to be a 'hermit'.

If a person is a diamond in itself, no amount of soil you bury on him will not be able to cover his Guan Hui.

Zach is this diamond.

Even if Zach only has a funeral home in the city of Barton that is quite ironic for vampires, Zach still becomes a character that everyone in the city must look up to!

Yes, Zach knows what his true role is when his story is no longer written by Maddison.

Those who need Zack's answers, just wait, and Zach will decide whether to give them what they want or not, depending on their mood......

Therefore, Zach didn't continue to look for Sissi's soul, even if Zach roughly guessed where Sissi is now, hehe, Zach just didn't go~ to sit here and watch people come and go~

Ethra stepped on her high heels and walked over with a click, "What are you doing here?!"

Zach took the metal bottle in his hand, squinted at Aethra, sunglasses and hat, fully armed, "Good afternoon, Secretary Mayor~"

"Good afternoon with you!" Ethura's eyes behind his sunglasses looked around irritably, this was the City Hall Square, the time was noon, and many city government workers were coming out to breathe fresh air during the break from work.

But Ethella's irritability was not that she was a mayor's secretary talking to a 'passerby' in the city hall square, but that she was a new fourth-generation Lesenbra, and in such daylight, she couldn't stay long, "Mayor Anthony told you not to sit here!"

Zach raised his eyebrows, after mastering blood control skills, Zach can't say that he is completely immune to the midday sun, but he is countless times more calm than Aethera, "It's upset that you don't look at it~" Zach didn't mean to leave, but adjusted his posture more comfortably, "I'm a Patton citizen, did you sit in his mayor's office, hehe, what is he nervous about~"

Aethra stared at Zach for a moment, then turned around, "Whatever you want!" and walked away.

Zach looked at Ethella's back, smiled, and continued to enjoy the midday sun.

With such a short period of time, the eyes of real passers-by looked at Zach more.

Everyone remembers that Zach's only appearance in the media was at Sbella's funeral. The influence is there, but it's more of an image outside of Patton—like the Feast, where societies in the West know Torredo's stance on wizarding traditions in the East.

It's normal for Zach to have this face, and no one knows who it is at Barton.

But Ethra's face, heh, she is wrapped into a rice dumpling, and she can be recognized at a glance around this city hall! This woman has an aura of attention.

So, now someone is paying attention to Zach.

"Who is that person? The mayor's secretary never goes out at noon, why did he come to look for this person?"

"I don't know, this man seems to have been sitting here for a while. I also had a wine bottle (metal bottle) in my hand just now. It's not like he's here to make trouble. ”

"No, if it's a troublemaker, the mayor's secretary will bring security guards over just now. ”

"Don't you think this person is a little familiar, where have you seen it? You're from the reception, has this person been to the town hall before?"

"Tsk, so many people come to do things every day, how can I remember who is who. ”

......

"I am the owner of the Grand Funeral Home. Zach suddenly waved at the man on the other bench, "Zachary Grande." I was on the news some time ago. "Introducing yourself with a smile on your face.

A row of people embarrassedly blamed each other for being too loud for people to hear. Laughed with honor, and then quickly dispersed.

Zach watched as the line dispersed. Keeping a smile on his face, he continued to sit and enjoy the sun.

The voices of passers-by were still in Zach's ears. Vampire senses, you know, unless these people run out of the city hall gossip, Zach can hear it clearly.

The gossip of these passers-by is not completely meaningless-

"He's Zachary Grande. The rumors have something to do with the mayor of the funeral owner. ”

"What's the matter, it's just a blessing, I participated in the privatization of the funeral industry, and it is impossible to keep the cemetery of Ford Funeral in the North District, and if we want to keep a piece of land for burial, we can only choose from two funeral homes in the South District. ”

"Then why don't you choose another one, uh, what's it called, by the way, it's Allen! Why don't you keep the cemetery where Allen was buried? It's not that the mayor is a veteran, this brother Grande, what's it called, uh, it's also a military birth anyway. ”

"I can't even remember the name, what are you still gossiping! Tsk, I said that luck is luck, you see the development of Ford and Allen's cemetery, one is the large general supermarket of the current West End rookie Quist, and after the Republic entered the Federation, most of the goods that our Barton City can accommodate! One is the construction site of the new port in the South District! This is just simple urban planning! He Grande is lucky, the cemetery is in a remote place with no development prospects. ”

"yes. We also know why it was revealed last year that the mayor was biased in favor of people from the military, tsk, it was not the result of the fact that Aethra was going to run for election at that time and exchanged tactics with the mayor. ”

"That warden of the Southern District Jail, right? Hey, the relationship between these high-level executives is really ......."

"Be careful with your words!"

"Bright flowers...... Former competitors are now working together for the development of our Bard......"

"Tsk, the sun makes me dizzy, go back, work!"

"Let's go, let's go......"

Zach wants to keep these gossipy civil servants, what interesting people~ But forget it, it's just embarrassing the other party.

After the lunch break, the square was much less crowded. But there are still some passers-by who are wandering casually. From the outside, it can be seen that they are retired elderly citizens, who live boring lives and wander around.

Zach's was still sitting there.

It's time to say the purpose of Zach's sitting here-

This purpose has come.

Mayor Barton, Anthony, walks with an imposing attitude. After not seeing him for a while, Zach unexpectedly noticed that Anthony's middle-aged trait, a slightly bulging belly, had flattened. Could it be that now that Aethra is back with him, he has made some efforts for the needs of some kind of life?

"Are you sick!" Anthony stood in front of Zach and opened his mouth to show his attitude, "What are you doing sitting here!

Zach looked up and looked at Anthony's face, "Hi~"

"Tsk!" Anthony glanced back at the direction of the city government irritably, and didn't know how many people found out that their mayor was not working in the office, and ran out to chat with passers-by, "Do you have anything wrong?!

Anthony walked a few steps before realizing that Zach hadn't followed, turned around and stared at Zach, "What the hell do you mean?!"

Zach gave Anthony a smile, but looked away from Anthony's face. This face is aging too fast - "You said how good it was that you promised to be my descendant more than ten years ago." ”

"What?"

"Whatever you want, I'll give it to you, after all, you'll be the first descendant of my manufacturing in a hundred years. Zach waved his hand, "Or the descendants that I confirm meet Toledo's criteria." Shaking his head, "You see, because you didn't agree to be my descendant, your younger brother, Ian, took your place and became the eldest son I don't care about, and now I beg to live under the unreliable god of Papa Midnight." What are you...... Hehe, that's it, Mayor Patton, that's your limit. ”

Anthony's face changed several times, and finally it became tense, the kind of middle-aged man's wrinkle that was tense in every part of his face. Anthony walked over to Zach again, "What do you mean!"

Zach looked at Anthony again, still smiling, and didn't explain anything about the inexplicable words just now, directly, "I'll inform you that the city of Barton has taken over." ”

"Say it again!"

Zach knew that Anthony was not deaf, so he would not repeat, "From this day forward, Barton is Toledo's territory. If you have any questions, you can ask Toledo's representative, my second son, 'General', for a consultation. ”

Anthony stepped up again, a little closer to Zach, and now Zach was still sitting, looking down, "What did you say?!"

Zach looked down at Anthony, "As the leader of the human power in the city of Barton, it is necessary for me to inform you that your power is only valid in the North Side, so the 'General' is enough to deal with all your doubts. Zach didn't finish this, "Anything on Barton's West End, you don't touch." ”

Anthony couldn't get close to Zach anymore, and was about to lie on top of Zack, "Heh, are you dreaming, Zach?"

Zach didn't bother to answer such a boring question, "If you have itchy hands, you want to take care of the West End." "I won't stop you, but if you get in the way of Toledo's representation on the West End, Mrs. Quinn, you do it at your own risk." ”

Zach, stand up. Put his hand on Anthony's shoulder and pat him gently, "I won't be here because we were friends to save you, human." After saying this in Anthony's ear, "Good luck, Ann Anthony." "Turn sideways and leave.

"Stop!" Mayor Anthony was quite imposing, but ...... "You wait for me!" A mayor still put down his childish class position, caught up with a civilian, and grabbed the civilian's arm, "What the hell do you mean?!"

Zach turned his head with a ...... on his face Seems to be sentimental?

Zach closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his face changed to Toredo's usual smile, "I was sitting there thinking, if you don't come out, I won't say these words." But Anthony, you're out after all. ”

Anthony's face changed several more times, pausing in anger, "Can I not come out if you sit here all the time?! The devil knows what happened to you again!I am the mayor of this city, I am responsible for this city, can I not come out?!"

Zach chuckled lightly and pushed Anthony away to hold his hand, Anthony resisted, but there was no point, "That's what I mean, as long as I appear in your sight, you can't ignore me~" This is not an ambiguous 'love story', it is countless times worse...... "Why can't you ignore me? Anthony because of our friendship?"

"*!" was first forced out of his city hall by Zack, then told by Zack of a bunch of sensational notices, and now by Zack such a strange confrontation...... That's all for Anthony's self-cultivation, "You're embarrassed to say! As you just said, you've got a 'general' in the North Side to run a gang of gangs! You've got a Lady Quinn in the West Side, staring at the West Side family that means a lot to Patton! You're messing with the South Side yourself! A vampire with a Feast! How do you tell me to ignore your existence?!"

It's good that Anthony has said all the things we need to be aware of.

Zach nodded kindly, "Look, don't you see it better than I do." Hehe, Anthony, you understood my position before I understood my own situation, didn't you~" Zach stepped up again and left, "Anthony, the chess pieces on the chessboard have long been placed, but I am too gentle and have been worried about everyone and not to play this game of chess." But in the end, I realized my gentleness, as if I wasn't appreciated by anyone. Then ......," Zach replied, "it's time to play chess for myself." Good luck Anthony, like I said, your status in this game of chess is not good, take care of yourself. This is the last thing I can do to our friendship. ”

Maybe it's time to wrap up.

Zack's mental journey during this time was very bumpy, and now he finally fell to the flat ground, which is ...... It could be bad, it could be beautiful, just watch it as you go.
