Chapter 7: people

After lunch, except for the lazy Alpha and the old Hank who has always done housework, Grande's people packed up in the kitchen. August 1st? ★★? Wenwen. ww.81zw.com?
It was like this at first, but when Alice recovered, she was the only one in the kitchen.
"I'm fine." Alice took a dry rag nervously, grabbed the wet plate and wiped it back and forth, and put it in the cupboard.
Zac's rubber-gloved fingers slipped over the foam-covered tray. "I haven't asked anything yet."
Alice didn't speak anymore, and wiped one plate after another.
Zac hardly concealed his movements. He took out the clean dishes directly from the cupboard, put them in a pool of shaking foam, and wiped them twice, handing them to Alice.
It did n’t take long for Alice to realize that her rag was soaked and she could n’t do the dry job.
I, I ’ll get a new one.
Alice squatted to the cabinet with her head down, rummaging stand up.
The banshee, who was obviously not paying attention here, did not realize that the vampire had already soaked all the dishes of Grande! Is this okay? Ha ha.
Zac did not stop, and continued to take clean dishes from the cupboard and threw them into the sink, "Alice?"
Alice exclaimed, holding a new rag, lowering her head to catch the wet plate and continue wiping.
"No matter what decision you make, we will support ..." Zac said halfway with a soothing tone and was interrupted.
"I'm not going anywhere!" Alice grasped the plate with both hands, raised her head, and stared at the vampire.
"Then ..." Zac turned his head slightly, his face becoming serious. "No one can take you away." Looking at Alice's relaxed expression, Zac smiled and took the plate and rag in her hand. , "You are Sister Grande, no one can touch Grande's sister."
Alice's tense face softened and fell into Zac's arms, "This is my home! I am Grande's sister! Not someone else's sister!"
Zac held a wet plate. ￠ ￡ eight ￠ ￡ 一 ￠ ￡ 中 ￠ ￡ 文, www.81ｚw.COM Now Alice ca n’t see the vampire ’s face, Zack ’s expression is a little strange, and he seems to be unconvinced by what he just said.
Because Alice will come to pick up not the one who would initially abandon her, but for the brother who once abandoned the firefly surname for her anger. Before this unfamiliar brother really appeared. No one knows what this person is like.
If it ’s something everyone hates, it ’s okay to think it ’s stupid like Ryan. What if the person is a great person?
Obviously just a kitchen. But Louise still lightly knocked on the door frame, watching the rare warm embrace that appeared in the Grand House, and compared to a lip, ‘James is coming. ’
Zac pouted, and Alice in her arms apparently heard a soft noise and pulled back embarrassedly. He took the plate in Zac's hand, put on his gloves, and stood by the sink and smiled at Zac. "Go, I'm really fine."
Zac could only nod his head, took off his gloves and walked out.
I don't know if it was intentional or something. James was standing in the center of the backyard, his whole body was shrouded in the warm dazzling sunlight, and his eyes were turned left and right without focusing, and he didn't know what he was looking at.
Zac stood for a moment behind the door of the stairwell, pushed the door open with the corner of his mouth, standing in the shadow under the eaves of the back porch and waving. "Do you want to come in."
James's gaze turned to Zac, looking at the vampire with flat shoe tips and shadows, frowning, and stepped towards the back porch.
Zac had no expectations of James's arrival. Spella's phone call, Bishap's commission, the vampire already had a bunch of things to deal with, and James's psychological counseling became less interesting.
The two entered the office, and Zac poured himself wine as usual. James Lisso took out a document and pushed it to Zac. August 1? Chinese ▼ ★ ▲ www.81zw.com ●
"What's this?" Zac looked at the Patton police print on the cover, puzzled. He did not get the documents from the police station from James, but it was the first time that he put the original directly in front of him. Previously, James had handwritten or copied spare parts with his bad handwriting.
"Georgina's investigation report." James' face was expressionless, and his gaze was only swept away from Zac's glass, and he began to look around the office at will.
Zac pulled the corner of his mouth, opened the document, and scanned it quickly.
"It's useless. Crowley hasn't checked it in detail." James's eyes stopped on Zack, but stopped on the side bookcase. His tone suddenly changed. "These books, you really Have you seen it? "
The vampire raised his eyebrows, raised his head, glanced at James, then followed his gaze to the bookcase, not knowing what the young detective was thinking. , "Grand life is usually boring."
James nodded and looked away, looking to the other side. By the door of the office, Louise exposed a branch of leaves in the potted plant enclosed in a corner of the exhibition hall. James raised his chin, "Do you usually take care of it?"
The young detective's thinking is really confusing now. His mouth twitched inexplicably and shook his head. "I wouldn't put the plant indoors. It's summer again, and it attracts insects."
Zac took the stage again from the file, looked at James suspiciously, and then looked at a piece of foliage at the door. For the summer, it grew very well. "No, I rarely take care of it. Louise is taking care of it. "Zack paused and raised his eyebrows." If the bugs you mean are mosquitoes, they never come close to me. "
James nodded again, his eyes shifted again, and looked behind Zac, staring at the floor-to-ceiling curtains that blocked the sun. "Curtains, would you clean them, you know that the curtains are the dirtiest in the room except the carpet ..."
"James." Zac looked at James' face without letting this somewhat inexplicable detective continue to ask, "What do you want to ask?"
James's eyes finally fell on Zac. He paused and shook his head. "I'm just talking to you about everyday things."
Zac closed the document in front of him, as James said, it was really useless, but it just marked some things for classification and forensics. Now for vampires, the abnormal James is more valuable than Georgina ’s case.
"James." Zac looked at James's eyes. "You've lived here more than once. You know our daily life is just a family with very poor funeral services. Everyone is looking for things to do nothing. What do you want to ask? "
James's gaze shifted and moved on a chair in front of his desk, changing to a comfortable posture. "This is a strange place, didn't you notice? You, you guys." James nested in the chair On the whole, the whole body seems extremely loose, "It is actually just a funeral home with poor business."
The vampire frowned, "Well, James, you aroused my curiosity." He waved his hand. "Speak, what are you thinking, I will try to answer."
"In fact, there is nothing to answer." James suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly. "I just ..." He moved on the chair again, showing a weird smile. "I'm only now." He bent down and began to look The chair underneath him, "Your chair is really comfortable, did Hank do it? Or did you buy it?"
Zac ’s fingers slipped a few times on the eaves of the wine glass and shrugged.
It ’s made by Old Grande.
Zach ’s hand circled in front of him. Grand and Hank did it. Newer, rougher work. "The vampire pointed to the workbench in front of the bookcase." I made it with Benjamin. "He bent his mouth." It seems that leisure is a Grand tradition. "
"Yeah." James lifted up and looked around again. "I've never noticed before."
Zac's eyes stayed on James. He understood that Zac had touched James's mind. Sipping his wine, he smiled. "You used to think these were props, right."
James nodded unabashedly, "I think these are all your props to disguise the lives of ordinary people."
There is nothing to mind about it. Zac knows clearly that when James first met him and Benjamin, he was evaluating everything about these two inhumans.
"You're not wrong." Zac turned his head and shook the wine glass in his hand. "Our ability really does not need these things that ordinary people need for their lives. It is normal to be regarded as a prop."
James never regarded the Grand House as a funeral home for accommodating aliens, but as a funeral home used by the aliens to cover their identity. There is a big difference between the two. At this moment, Zac is now that James' understanding is shifting from the latter to the former.
This is a good thing.
James nodded, "I had never relaxed when I lived here before. All my attention was on the two monsters hiding under this building."
"These." James raised his hand and slid through a circle in the air. "It's all decoration. Your life is just a performance. Let's hide your true colors together under this, I must be alert."
Zac made a gesture to himself, "Relax, I didn't feel offended."
"Now." James shook his head. "I'm ... I'm wrong." The young detective shrugged. "You are just like ordinary people, living here. Human life." James's eyes Lose focus again, as if muttering, "Just, the life of ordinary 'people'."
Zac was silent for a while, and the atmosphere was a little strange, "James, tell me well, what made you finally show this? I'm curious, I don't think you will be mature enough to understand this."
We can testify that Zach has tried to use various guides to make James realize that aliens are also a member of this world. There is no need to understand why they exist. Existence is already a fact. Just treat them with justice. .
"Harrison." James's voice was calm. "He will have a girlfriend like that who loves him, worrying about him, and not giving up on him. He must be a good person, right. It must be like this Yes, right. Otherwise it does n’t make sense. "
Zac was stunned, then shook his head helplessly. Forget it, naive people have naive ways of thinking, and Zac doesn't want to pursue them. Hey, the good thing is that James finally realized this, enough. (To be continued.)
