Zach's phone call to Bishop's maid's family had only two main points, which were basically the same thing as the standard - "I'm sorry, please mourn." Burial or cremation, when is the funeral happening?"

Due to the special social structure of the West End, these relatives knew each other, which made it easier for Zach to arrange all the funerals together into a 'collective' funeral without much talk. For Grande, it's a time saver. Of course, the expenses reported to Sharp will not be less than a penny according to the separate funeral settlement.

While the 'General' was still 'holding his breath' and trying to touch the glossy surface with a finger (the sun was sinking, and the summer day was also turning into evening), Zach took the sorted out itinerary and confirmed that the 'General' would never have the courage to try to cross the glossy surface for a while.

"Louise, this is the funeral arrangement from Sharp Manor. Zach found Louise in the recreation room watching the opening credits of the new [Cook's Kitchen] with Alice.

Louise took it and flipped through it quickly, "Mass funeral? Have we done it before? How many temporary workers will we have to recruit, and how will the process be arranged?"

Zach tilted his chin to the side of his head towards Old Hank, who had just sat down on the couch. Our vampire, the owner of this funeral home, really, really, incompetent!

Louise blinked, hey, she couldn't complain about her man, "Oh, Hank, let's talk about it." As he spoke, he stood up, patted the old Hank, who had just sat down, and glanced at Zack, "Then we need to discuss it in the office, and Austin below is not finished yet." ”

Zack's face froze for a moment, "The 'General' is still in the office." "Can you understand Zack's embarrassment at this time, it should be Toledo's Louise and not Toledo's 'general'. Zach screwed up again on the issue of his own descendants!" I asked him to practice acting in the sun. ”

The corners of Louise's eyes twitched unnaturally, "Well, oh, well, let's go to my room." ”

"I'm not going into a woman's room!" said old Hank, standing still on the couch.

"Hank!" when he needs to be considerate of his own 'family'. Zach was saddened to find that no one cooperated, but was watching the joke.

"Let's go to the restaurant. Louise lowered her head, pursed her lips, and walked away.

Old Hank stood up lazily, raised the corners of his mouth as he passed Zack, and gave a mocking 'hum!'

By the way, Hank Sr.'s reaction to Grande's extra vampire was to say, "I'm not going to buy you sheep!"

Zach shook his head helplessly and looked at Alice, the only one left in the room. Alice's face was also a little sad, and next to Cook on TV, the young and beautiful hostess kept harassing him next to Cook, "Can I taste this? It looks so delicious......

Zach couldn't comfort him, so he could only focus on his own business, "Alice, do you see Brian?"

"He's in the South Warehouse. Alice replied inattentively, "He has nothing to do." I asked him to tidy up the clutter. ”

Zach nodded and walked out of the recreation room. Prepare to go to Brian.

As soon as I got off the back porch, I saw a dusty Brian coming out of the South Warehouse, and as soon as he saw Zach from a distance, he immediately ran this way excitedly.

The corners of Zack's eyes twitched subconsciously, and this job did not give him any ease.

"Zach!" Brian gasped sharply and stood in front of Zach. I didn't realize that the dust on my body was polluting Zack's air, uh, or did he know too well what Zack was, and knew that the other party didn't care about the air?"I found a lot of old furniture!"

Zach pursed his lips and looked at Brian. Rhetoric is brewing.

"There's a lot of stuff in your warehouse!" Brian waved his hand excitedly, "and I've found a couple of desks that look like the one you gave me last time!"

Zach opened his mouth, throwing away all the rhetoric he had prepared, "The table I sent to your house last time." Zach nodded as if in a normal conversation, "Yes, we do have a lot of tables like that, which were empty in the original room on the second floor of Grande. I sold part of it last time. ”

To be precise, the one in Brian's house is Louise's desk, which Louise casually moved down from the original second floor. Speaking of which, Old Hank is really 'shrewd', the last time Zack dragged to the North District second-hand furniture for sale was part of the repair after Grande was damaged after being 'attacked', and the intact furniture was received by Old Hank to the warehouse.

"Empty?, no one?!" Brian seemed a little excited, "It's a pity!

Speaking of which. Zach was going to start, "The last time I went to your house to deliver the table, your mother happened to be out at work, do you know what the job is?" Zach turned around and walked inside, and Brian would follow.

Brian replied a little hurriedly, "I don't know!" he caught up with Zach in two steps, and his expression changed to something else, "What's wrong?

Zach went up the stairs and didn't look back, "Brian, I asked you something. At the corner of the stairs, Zach saw Brian's expression staring at him, and quickly turned away, "It's been a long time since your mother disappeared, and you don't have any ideas...... Zach paused, "Do you have a hunch." ”

"What hunch?" Brian followed Zach up to the second floor.

"Worry or something. Zach turned to the office and shook his head.

"No, I don't. Brian's mind made him seem to have completely failed to predict the direction of Zack's conversation at this time, "You helped me get the police to investigate, and you have been taking care of me, what should I worry about?"

Zach tugged at the corners of his mouth and pushed open the office door, the 'General' still 'seducing' the reddish sunlight with his fingers.

Zach sat down behind his desk, picked up a document, and didn't give it to Brian first, but looked at the temporary employment contract of Bishop Manor written on the document, and thought for a while, "The police haven't given us any news, and I don't take good care of you." Don't worry about that? "Of course, he just forgot Brian on the beach, and only returned this morning by the mermaid Morman, if that's what that calls care......

Brian circled around the 'General' with some curiosity, distracted in an inappropriate place, "Uncle. What are you doing?"

The General's fingers shook and touched the glossy surface, and the bright red sparks suddenly erupted in front of his fingertips! The General' howled, turned into a gray shadow, and curled up under the workbench again.

"Haha!" Brian hunched over as he looked at the 'general' under the table with his jet-black fingers moaning. "You're so funny!"

Before the 'General' glared at Brian, Zach patted the table with a frown, "Brian, I'm talking to you!"

"Oh!" Brian threw down his teeth and exposed claws, jumped to his desk, sat on the chair like a schoolboy being talked to by a teacher, and looked at Zach sincerely, "Don't worry, are you saying that I haven't seen my mother for a long time to worry?"

Zach didn't speak. He wanted to hear the reason why Brian wasn't worried, even if the mind was just a child, there had to be a reasonable reason.

"No, it won't. Brian shook his head, "When I was in the nursing home, I only had one visit a month! I often used this opportunity to exchange with Lip for one more solo movie! ”

Zach regretted that it wasn't that Lip was mentioned in the conversation, but that he shouldn't have listened to it. Don't forget that Zach has Brian's file, which he spent more than a decade in that place in the nursing home. It is half of his life, and it is still the most important part of worldview and cognitive shaping.

The conversation was overshadowed by an even heavier atmosphere of tragedy.

Zach frowned. He realized that there was no possibility of whitewashing Brian's mother's affairs, and the long pain was better than the short pain. Zach pushed the contract in front of Brian, "You're okay with your reading skills." ”

"Average. Brian meant average elementary school students, and don't forget his letter to Zach. A bunch of typos. He flipped through the information.

Brian seemed to have a hard time reading, and the boring contract terms were too much of a burden on this personality who only had the mind of a schoolboy, and Zach grimaced, "The last page." ”

"Oh. Brian seemed liberated to turn to the last page, right away. He spotted the point, "Mother's signature!"

He turned to the first page again, "Is this what mothers do?" and his eyes widened, "Bisharp, is that a famous family?" and he reflexively looked at Zack, "You've found your mother!"

Zach didn't speak again.

Brian squirmed, "Well, doesn't that mean you're going to send me back?"

Zach's brows furrowed even tighter, staring at Brian, "That's what came to mind? I'm going to send you back?" Zach's tone was incredible, but with Zack's ability to control his emotions, this meaning was expressed very implicitly, and his tone was very calm, "After so long, finally with news of your mother, the first thing you can think of is that you can't stay in Grande anymore." ”

Brian didn't seem to understand what Zach was trying to say, and blinked, "I, did I say something wrong?"

"Nope. Zach shook his head, facing such an adult face, but only a person with a child's mind, Zach couldn't avoid confusion, "I just expected something else, like Ryan, to think of." You. Zach shook his head again, "Forget it. ”

It is not a kind gesture to mention one personality to another. Before even Brian's mind could feel the malicious targeting and wanted to refute, Zach waved his hand, "Do you want to see your mother, she's in Grande." ”

The 'advantage' of immaturity - easy distraction.

"She's here?!" Brian looked at Zach, but immediately looked around, "Where?"

"Morgue. Zach no longer packs, "A lot of bad things have happened at Bisharp Manor, and your mother was unfortunately involved in it, becoming one of the victims, and now in Grande's mortuary......"

"Wait!" Brian stood up and looked at Zach, "Zach, you, what did you say?" What emotions were happening on his face.

Zach glanced at him, "A lot of bad things have happened in Bisharp Manor, and your mother is unfortunately involved in ......" Hehe, Zach didn't even want to do a little embellishment, repeated the previous words word for word, and finished what was interrupted, "...... Now in Grande's morgue. Now that Grande is handling the funerals of those who have been caught up in the bad things for Bishop, I, as the owner of the funeral home, have an obligation to inform the families of the deceased and make arrangements for the funeral. ”

Zach withdrew his gaze, "Your mother's family, it's you. ”

The phone rang at this terrible moment, and Zach didn't bother to bother and waited for Brian's response. Even the 'general' no longer came out under the table, looking at the silent side, only the screeching of the phone.

The bell rang six times, and when it started the seventh, Brian moved.

The chair behind him was moved by the abruptly turned body, and it slanted off the ground. Brian's body, the corners of his clothes, and his swaying arms tickled at the things on the desk—pen holders, small decorations, ink bottles, papers...... In the midst of the chaos, he rushed to the side door, "Wow!" The door opened, and the "bang" slammed shut.

In the office, all that was left for Zach was the messed clutter on his desk and the chair that had finally toppled over. Brian ran away.

Zach frowned, and shook his head before the ink in the bottle had contaminated anything more. What else to expect, Brian is just a child, you can try to tell a child the news of his mother who has been there since birth, always there, always there, in the morgue, and see what it looks like.

"Clean up here. Zach gave the order to the 'General' hiding under the workbench, and picked up the phone just after the seventh ring, "Grande Funeral Home ......"

"Mr. Zachary Grande?" asked some familiar male voice in the earpiece, politely.

"It's me. Zach calmed down and waited for the other person to introduce himself.

"Zach, it's me, Jason. Remember me? Well, the things that happened to White and the club before ......" (Volume 10, Fight Club, the man who brought Weiss undercover into the fight club in a nightclub. ）

Zach remembered, Jason, old Hank and Blake's 'same style', you know what I mean, "Remember." Zach raised an eyebrow, why would this guy look for himself?

"Oh, sorry. The voice on the phone was apologetic, "Did you call to inquire about the business content of xx insurance company before?" I am a salesman here, well, the supervisor is Bob, you have also met, the middle-aged man in room 105, he noticed your appointment, so he arranged it for me. ”

"Uh......" Jason was right, Zach was dealing with the gap between the 'main job' of the funeral home, and took time to do some gray professional work, "yes." Zack tugged at the corners of his mouth, he could meet someone he knew, and he was helpless.

"Yes. The other party seemed a little embarrassed, in case everyone forgot that these people from the original Fight Club knew about vampires, but under Gangero's lame eyes of charm, they were brainwashed and couldn't talk about it......

Jason's embarrassment, a vampire-run funeral home, is actually consulting the insurance business, do you know how ridiculous it seems.

"Za, Zach, do you have time, now that your business has been assigned to me, we should make an appointment to talk and see what kind of insurance you want. ”

Zach suddenly had a 'terrible' idea, "Do you have time tonight, I've only had time outside of work hours lately, and Grande is busy." "Honestly, the mass funeral, the work that was just arranged. It's just that Louise and Old Hank are busy, Zack, don't talk about it.

"Uh, yes, yes. Jason agreed, "Well, if you are taking out business insurance for Grande, I need to review Grande's condition, if you can, it is best to ...... at Grande" Please understand Jason's last hesitation, Grande, the vampire's home, is not a fun place. In order to work, Jason is also hard enough.

"Not for now. Zach waved his hand at the air, "You are waiting for me in the back alley of Liszt Street, there is a café called [Time Elf], I will come over in a moment." "James's house?

"Oh, good, good. "There's nothing unreasonable about talking about official business in the café, "I'll prepare the materials......"

"No, I don't. The corners of Zach's mouth went up, "It's Wednesday, game night." ”

The Comic Con team is back, and the regular event with Fizz's otaku friends, Dungeon & Dragon Game Night, has started again. (To be continued......)
