28 Busy Mills
The wagon stopped in front of the mill, and Zach had the illusion that this wasn't the cremation branch of Grande's deserted funeral home, it was, too, too busy......
The front yard in front of the mill was full of strange cars, the strange staff who came and went, and the strange grieving family members crowded inside and outside the mill...... The only person Zach knew was Leon, the smiling demon with a nervous face and a stack of documents in the middle of the crowd, who approached his grieving family and said this-
"Are you xx's fiancΓ©e?"
"Yes, yes. Turn, is it xx's turn? Can I take one last look at him......"
Leon interrupted the sad woman, "No, no, it's not your turn yet, I just want to tell you that xx has two girlfriends in addition to you." β
"What, what ......"
"Don't you always complain that xx is always a good person to help his co-workers with the work, but he doesn't get paid as he deserves? Now you know, he didn't help anyone with the work, he just made an excuse to play with the other two girlfriends. β
"What? What ?......?"
"You still remember, that time you went to the factory to look for him, he ......"
Leon didn't finish speaking, and Zach grabbed him by the collar and pulled the demon away from the woman whose world had collapsed again, "Leon." Zach tugged at the corners of his mouth, pulled Leon away from the crowd, and walked towards the mill, "I remember I told you that you are not allowed to incite anyone or cause a riot here. Do you want me to inform Crowley and ask her to replace you?"
"Incitement?" Leon's body tilted ridiculously, and he was pulled forward crookedly. "I'm not stirring anyone! I'm helping the poor woman to get out of the shadows sooner! That man isn't a good thing! I'm helping her! I'm doing good!"
If you believe his words, you'll have a ghost, and don't forget, Lyon is a game-playing card. With the negativity that now reigns in the mill, this demon can incite a riot!
Zach ignored him and pulled the guy straight to Madison's office.
The closer you get to Madison's office, the more crowded it becomes, with mill workers coming in and out of the office with papers.
Zach frowned, pulled Leon directly, and pushed him into the office. The mill staff who tried to enter the office were stopped by Zach. Launch.
"Hey, who are you, you ......"
The whining voice caused Madison to look up from his desk and look at Zach as he entered, Leon being pulled aside by the collar, and a strange man with a childish backpack. directly snorted and waved his hand, "He's the boss, my boss." Let's get out. β
"Ugh. Oh. But the ......" staff member had the papers in his hand, and what he wanted to say, but Zach took it directly, threw it on Madison's desk, forced out the door, and after closing the door, the noise of the mill was cut out.
Madison took the file that had just been thrown on the table and looked at it. He put it under the stack of papers in front of him, "What are you doing?" Inspections. A cold tone.
Zach pouted, sat down across from Madison, and looked at the papers on the desk, all of which were cremation papers, and our vampire wasn't interested in them, "Just take it as you say, I'm your boss." β
Madison snorted twice, then stopped paying attention to Zack, picked up the document in front of him, took a cursory look at it, then signed, then put it aside for a stack and continued to repeat. It's also mechanical and boring work. But he had to do it, and Zach also noticed that the documents all had Herman's words on them, and these documents seemed to be fed back to Herman as part of the contract with Herman.
You should remember the reason why the mill was so busy, Herman's compensation plan - the death of the deceased, Herman gave two million bags to Grande's mill. Don't mind the impersonal statement, it's true.
Seeing that Madison didn't want to pay attention, Zach pursed his lips, mentally reminding himself why he was here. Shaking his head helplessly, he pulled a pen from the pen holder on the table and took half of it directly from the stacked papers in front of Madison.
Zach held the pen and watched Madison sign it, imitating it twice in the air before starting to sign on the official paper.
Maddison frowned and glanced at Zach, "If you're going to sign my name, you're responsible for my name." Tut. He was impatient, "At least check the contents of the paper!"
Zach stopped his pen, picked up the top document, and began to read it.
This is a report document on the cremation process, which records when the body was put into the incinerator, when it was turned over, and when and where it was fully burned and broken,...... When is it completely powdered out of the oven.
"Does this kind of thing, even if I check it, does it make sense?" Zack shook his head unnaturally and put down the papers. Count him unlucky, just got a document that was most uncomfortable for the aliens.
Madison also tugged at the corners of his mouth and glanced at Zach unhappily. Naturally, there are also reports in the document such as the identity certificate of the recipient's relatives, the follow-up treatment of the cremation, and the details of the requirements.
But Madison, who thinks he is more mature than Zach, will not be childish and retorts directly, pursing his lips, "Meaningful." I don't know if you've noticed, a lot of the staff at the mill are unfamiliar faces, temporary workers, and I'm not going to take responsibility for the mistakes of these temporary workers, so check it out. β
Remember, Madison had also said hello to Zach before hiring these temporary workers, purely to cope with Herman's contract.
Maddison is pretty good, in such a short period of time, there is no room for preparation, and now the picture that Zach sees, although busy, is quite organized and not chaotic. Madison insisted on taking this sudden big 'business' next.
Of course, today is just the beginning, and Herman's business is 'all-inclusive', with the exception of the deceased who have now been placed in the ice cellar under the mill and lined up to be cremated, as well as some of the survivors who are now temporary. Still in the hospital. I don't know how long it will last.
Zach shook his head as he continued to sign Madison's name without checking, "Grande has always used temp workers. "The farmer hired at the time of burial. "There's nothing to worry about, I'm sure these honest people in the South End. β
Madison glanced at Zach and didn't say anything, but it was obvious that Madison was signing faster. He also stopped checking and omitted the rough reading.
"Speaking of temporary workers. Zach tilted his head. Raising one side of his eyebrows, his subordinates kept moving, "I brought someone for you." β
Madison frowned. In the office, in addition to Zach and Leon, there was only Brian he didn't know, who was carrying a childish backpack at this time. Standing in the corner, curiously looking at the environment of the office.
"Arrange it. Zach seemed to be indifferent, giving orders like a boss. "Forget the important work, let him do some chores. β
Brian didn't seem to realize that Zach was talking about him, only to notice Leon smiling at him in the other corner of the room, so he laughed back. The two guys, both of whom were nervous, were smiling at each other in the office.
Madison tugged at the corners of his mouth, "How long are you talking about temporary?" "Madison is worried that Zach is forcibly stuffing people into the mill again, and there is a bad example of Lyon, which proves that Zach is not a good guy, and Madison naturally wants to confirm it.
Madison forgot. In fact, he is also the person who came to the mill by Zackse, and he is still the first person.
Zach raised an eyebrow. "It's temporary. β
Seeing that Zach didn't mean to give an accurate answer, Madison shook his head and looked at Ang, "Take him out for a walk." β
Leon seemed to be happy to answer, and at this time, Zach deliberately put down his pen and glanced at Leon, which was a warning, warning him not to try to do something demonic again.
"Hey, what are you doing?!" Brian, who reacted, received the smile he had on Leon before, and wanted to refuse to be dragged away by Leon.
Zach looked at Brian again and said in a calm tone, "Brian, go out with him, it's busy outside, go help." β
Brian looked at Zach's expression, oh, and followed Leon honestly.
Maddison, who was observing this, glanced at Zach and Brian, and then stopped at Zach at the entrance where Leon took Brian away, frowning, "Who is he?" or, what is he?"
Zach wasn't interested in explaining, but it was a great opportunity to start his second purpose at the mill.
"If I told you. Zach raised an eyebrow and continued to sign papers, the corners of his mouth curled and his words smiling, "Will you turn around and tell your new best friend Riley." β
Madison's signature movement stopped, and he looked up at Zach, his brow furrowed, "What do you mean?" β
Zach shrugged his shoulders and kept moving, "Don't you understand? I mean, you're going to tell someone what I told you about Grande's, mine, private things, and turn your head around and tell somebody else." After signing a document and placing it in the space to the side, Zach spread his hands, "I'm sorry, it's none other than your new friend, Riley, an alien charm who has nothing to do with Grande or me." β
Sometimes, we get caught up in Zack's vampire identity and don't really think about what kind of person he is, and now this statement proves that he is not a generous person. He was accusing Madison of telling Grande about his private affairs.
Madison looked at Zach, and for a moment, in the office, there was only the sound of a single pen tip scratching across the paper.
Madison was silent for a moment, then lowered his head again, looked at the signature on the document, shook the pen in his hand, and added the sound of pen and paper swiping, "Are you a little too presumptuous?" Madison shook his head slightly, "What I said to Riley is my business, and it has nothing to do with you. β
"Oh yes?" Zach raised an eyebrow, of course, he was signing papers, not looking at Madison, only a slightly lower head, under his forehead, an eyebrow raised there, "but it doesn't sound like that." I think you can try to imagine being interrupted by your phone call yesterday, I think I think I still maintain a calm image, but, yesterday ......"
Zach didn't continue, but the meaning was already there. It's a calm person like Zack, who was provoked to steel with the demon, the pupil of charm to the charm, it must be the charm that the demon said something about Zack's private matter that Zack cares about very much, otherwise how can the always calm vampire be impulsive.
In fact, Zach didn't want to be too straightforward, after all, Madison was his own person, and he still wanted to give Madison a chance to argue. What we know is that Riley is directly talking about Zack's use of the West End, which is related to the nature of Grande's social attributes, and it is a very serious matter.
Madison's autograph paused, tugging at the corners of his mouth, "Riley and I are talking about my business." Who am I, what do I do, maybe I mentioned how I got the job, and what I think about the job, my boss, but it's my business, and you insist on saying it's your business. β
Maddison glanced at Zach, "I can only say that my opinion is right, and I am all right." β
This time, Zach stopped his movements, raised his eyes to look at Madison, and wanted to pull the corners of his mouth to show that it was a quibble, but, in the end, Zach only raised his eyebrows again, "Are you trying to say that you are a person who sees things very accurately? What Riley succeeded in provoking me was not to state Grande's private affairs, but to think about Grande, but just happened to be all right?"
Madison tilted his head, "You come and tell me." β
Zach narrowed his eyes, was silent for a moment, and waved his hand, "Okay, that's all for that." "Cunning vampire, forced to give himself a step.
Madison tugged at the corners of his mouth, shook his head, and didn't bother to ask. God knows, how much language he and Riley have in common, how many words they say to each other, and to be honest, he doesn't know exactly what Zach is referring to.
Because the phone call to Riley yesterday was the only private thing he could spare to do after he started busy trading Herman's contracts. As a result, time is all used to explain to Zach that he has become involved with "Urban Legends".
"Let's move on to Riley, your new friend. Zach himself didn't seem to have a long staircase, "You two, well......" Zach thought about the words, "your friendship, how much, well, reliable." β
"What do you mean. β
No wonder Zach, this question can be offensive no matter how you ask it.
"I mean, obviously, in my opinion. Zach glanced at Madison, trying to hint at something with a meaningful look, "It's just my personal opinion, it seems to be more beneficial to her to be friends with you." Like you've already said to me, someone is curious about Grande, so you write it, and so Metro Weekly increases sales, which is a 'benefit' for her, right? But I don't see any 'good' for you from her. β
Madison looked at Zach with a strange look.
What is this vampire trying to say? 'good'?
Zach awkwardly added at this point, "After all, she's a charmer, do you know what I'm talking about?"
Madison's face fell. (To be continued......)
