American Drama World Exorcism

Chapter 207: Hall's Department Store

Benny came to the hospital to give Jack an injection.

Hope is very busy at the police station, Joey works in the department store, and is also very busy, Jonathan works in Benny’s restaurant and is also very busy, Will and Eleven and others are mysterious all day long, and they seem to be very secretive. Busy, so the things like accompanying Jacks to get an injection fell on Benny, who seems to be very idle.

Jacks is seven years old this year. Compared to Hope, the little guy looks a little more delicate and looks more like Joey. This incident was laughed at by Benny for a long time, and it also troubled Hope for a long time.

In Hope’s view, boys should look like him, five big and three thick, with a rectangular face and two cheeks, so they are full of manliness. This is also the reason why Hope "abandons" Will-Jacks Looks very similar to Will.

Benny and Joey both sneered at Hope's argument. Benny even secretly rejoiced in his heart. Fortunately, Jacks is not like Hope...

Benny had seen the photos of Hope when he was a child, and showed an undisguised dislike-a fading combat appearance.

Jacks was a little afraid of getting an injection, and was lingering in front of the hospital and refused to go in.

The little guy hugged Benny's thigh tightly, buried his face in his clothes, and refused to take it out.

After Benny promised to take him to the department store to buy toys after the injection, and to cook his favorite braised pork in the evening, Jacks reluctantly let go of Benny's thigh.

During the injection, Benny was accompanied by him. Jacks was still very nervous. Under the double comfort of the nurse and Benny, the little guy reluctantly took off his pants and lay on Benny’s lap, hugging him with both hands. His head showed a brave appearance.

The nurse wiped the skin with alcohol, and Benny could clearly feel the tension of Jacks lying on his lap. His body was tight and stiff.

The moment the needle pierced the skin, Benny really felt the tension of Jacks-he bit Benny on the root of Benny's thigh.

After a while, in the nurse's smile, Benny took Jacks by the hand, two people, one large and one small, limping out of the hospital.

"Ben, go buy toys."

Walking out of the hospital, Jacks, who had been silent, raised his head and reminded.

"Okay, let's go and buy toys."

Benny rubbed his thighs, bent over and picked Jacks into the car, and drove towards the department store.

There was originally only one department store in Hawkins Town. Although the store is small, it has a complete range of products, from daily chemical department stores to daily-use hardware, from bedding to small household appliances.

This department store is also the only source of household for the people in the town.

This shop is good at everything, the only drawback is that the goods are very expensive.

In the days when the only department store monopolized daily necessities in the small town, the price he sold was 1.5 times the market price, and it was extremely unstable.

In Benny's view, the price of their products is determined at will based on the boss's preferences. It has no reference value at all.

Later, with the gradual development of Hawkinstown, there were two more department stores.

After two other department stores competed, commodity prices finally stabilized and returned to a state where market prices were similar.

Joey works in the old department store.

Naturally, Benny would not take Jacks to the department store where Joey worked. If Joey found out, the little guy's toy purchase plan would definitely fall through.

Benny II was a human and still had no experience in raising children. Although Hope once had a daughter, he died very early. He is very fond of Jacks, the middle-aged son.

Therefore, Jacks can get almost what he wants under the no lower limit of Benny and Hope. Fortunately, there was another Joey stopping by, which didn't make Jacks crooked.

Drive back to the restaurant, parked the car, Benny led Jacks to the street. At this time Jacks had recovered from the fear of injections, and was completely immersed in the joy of buying toys that was about to come. Twittering all the way.

The newly opened department store is on the same street as the restaurant.

Arriving at 4810 Randolph Lane, and greeted the clerk, Benny took a shopping basket and handed it to Jacks, pushing his back.

"Go on. Corporal Jacks Hope, you have five minutes to buy."

Jacks took the shopping basket excitedly, gave a gift in return, and yelled loudly.

"Yes, sir!"

After speaking, he pulled the shopping basket and rushed into the shelf.

Benny smiled and watched the little guy leave, turned his head, the smile on his face gradually faded.

"Diu Carrion? Why don't I know when you became a clerk in a department store?"

Yes, Benny also discovered that the clerk in this department store turned out to be Diocalion.

Deucalion put down the "Divine Comedy" in his hand and corrected it.

"To be precise, we opened this department store."

With that, Deucalion pointed to the outside and then to the wolf-shaped puppets that can be seen everywhere inside.

Benny then remembered that the sign hanging outside the department store painted a picture of a huge pack of wolves running.

Benny curled his lips and glanced at the book in Diu Carrion's hand. He seemed to be holding this "Divine Comedy" all the time, and he didn't know when he could change it.

"Where is Talia? What have you been up to lately?"

Benny leaned against the cash register and asked casually.

"The leader is preparing for the night of the full moon. Derek has not yet learned to control the transformation. The night of the full moon is in danger of getting out of control." After a pause, Deucarión pulled out a smile and said unclearly. In wolves, young wolves usually follow their father to learn to control their transformation, rather than following their mother."

This made Benny a little embarrassed. He touched his nose, picked up a newspaper and flipped through it at random, and quickly turned the topic off.

"How did you find your guide?"

Benny doesn't know why he feels embarrassed. Ming Talia has already explained that Derek is not Benny Hammond's son. What is embarrassing for him?

There are also these werewolves. Don’t blame the vampires for calling them stupid dogs. How can one or two think that Derek is his son? It's as if he is a scumbag who abandons his wife and children.

"No clue. It may take a long time to find, so we opened this department store."

Deucalion shook his head and said, then looked at Jacks wandering between the shelves, and then said

"You seem to like children very much, Lord Guardian."

"He is Hope's son, my godson." Benny replied vaguely, pointing to the newspaper and said

"Look, the Vampire Rights Act is about to be outlawed."

Deu Carrion nodded, "Because the impact of the Washington incident is too great, some states have decided to deliberately discuss the vampire rights bill. Since your guardian likes children so much, why are you still not married?"

"Officials in Washington are pretending to be shit. A bill has only been passed a few years before it is about to be banned again. It's really like a family."

"The Vampire Rights Act was a bit sloppy when it was passed. Guardian, whose child do you think Derek will be?"

"You should ask Thalia about this question, not me. I have asked, but it's not mine anyway."

Benny said helplessly.

Deu Carrion nodded, with a very agreeable look, and said sensibly, "That might be the case, maybe the leader is embarrassed--"

"Stop it!"

Benny hurriedly stopped, he felt that he could no longer struggle with this issue. He could see that it was a mistake to come to this department store today. He shouldn't walk in, or even be near the department store.

"Diu Carrion, this was already said very clearly in the restaurant that day. It's not easy for Thalia to raise Derek by herself, but you know, Thalia and I have broken up, and we have broken up for eleven years. .Thalia left without a sound."

At this point, Benny stopped, he lowered his head and glanced at the right hand that had begun to be a demon again, raised his head, and looked at Deu Carrion blankly.

Diocalion nodded solemnly, as if you were right, please continue.

Benny Hammond broke up with Thalia for eleven years, and Derek is eleven this year...

Benny felt that something was not quite right. He lowered his head and glanced at his restless right hand, and now even he himself started to think that Diu Carrion and Pete's thoughts were justified.

"Book!"

Just as Benny was at a loss, Jack rushed over with the shopping basket, alleviating Benny's embarrassment.

Jack’s shopping basket is stacked with a lot of toys, from Transformers to basketballs, from various soldier dolls to toy guns. The height of the stack has completely concealed himself, and he still holds one in his hand. The huge gray wolf puppet.

"Yes, the time is just right. The task was completed very well."

Benny suppressed the strangeness in his heart and stroked Jacks' head with a smile.

Diocalion pursed his lips, closed the "Divine Comedy", and began to calculate the price of the toy.

He did the calculation very quickly, which seemed weird to Benny.

Among the people he has contacted, there is almost no one who can accurately calculate the price of commodities by relying on mental arithmetic, let alone a stupid wolf...

"A total of five hundred and fifty-eight."

The previous gossip Diocalion disappeared, and Diocalion, who returned to the clerk mode, let Benny secretly breathe a sigh of relief. He quickly took out his wallet, swiped his card to pay, and then took Jacks and left the department store as if he were fleeing.

Deucalion looked at the embarrassed back of Benny outside the window and curled his lips until Benny and Jack went into the restaurant and disappeared. He then retracted his gaze and was about to take the "Divine Comedy" from the side to continue. Reading, a person pushes in.

"The shopping basket is there—"

Deu Carrion's words stopped abruptly. He raised his head and looked at the person in shock, his pupils contracted rapidly, he could not help staggering back two steps, and leaning against the wall.

"This is Hawkins. We have the permission of the guardian. You can't hunt us here."

Diocalion swallowed, pretending to be calm.
