The Record Of Barton's Fantastical Events-Chapter 46
Chapter 46: Chapter 12 Second Time
“You don’t need to be so resistant.” Benjamin pushed Conner into the locker room. Even if there were only two people, the whole room still smelled of boys’ sweat. The werewolf wrinkled up his nose, “I’m not trying to interfere in your business. I’m here for Kyle.”
‘Conor’ adjusted the shoulder shields that were pushed out of place by Benjamin and looked warily at the guy in front of him. ‘I didn’t do anything to him!’
Benjamin shrugged. “Technically, yes, Ryan Gale.” He walked to the rows of metal lockers, glanced around, and walked toward one of them, “But you took advantage of what he did. So you owe him one, don’t you think so?”
Seeing Benjamin stopped, the brows of ‘Connor’ were pressed even closer. Because the place where Benjamin stood was the place where the real Connor died!
“Is it here?” Benjamin crouched down, touched the ground, and looked at Connor with a smile, “The place where you possessed Connor.”
“Yes! So what!” ‘Connor’. Oh no, let’s call him Ryan instead. Ryan clenched his fists. “What do you want from me? Connor’s dead! I need a body! And that Kyle, he should thank me! I’m the reason he’s not in jail!”
Benjamin raised his eyebrows and smiled. “Don’t be so self-righteous. You saw what happened. It was just an accident. He has the name Barton, and he will not be thrown into jail.”
“What do you know!” Ryan shook his fist and glared at Benjamin. “Who do you think you are? The Barton family’s guard dog?!”
“Clang!”
The tips of Benjamin’s fingers, the sharp nails made a deep mark on the ground!
“Alpha…” Ryan’s face was covered with panic, and he staggered back, but his legs were blocked by the bench, so he slumped in fear.
Benjamin stopped using his alpha fingers and gave Ryan a calm look. “Like I said before, I don’t want trouble. But you should know who you are talking to.”
“It can’t be!” Ryan’s voice was shaking “No wolf packs live in Barton city! What’s your name! How long did you live in Barton city? !”
“Benjamin Grande. At least ten years.”
When the other person utters several keywords in a row, the conversation can still be continued even if you just answer one of the questions. So this is a reminder to everyone. If you want to confirm something, focus on one keyword!
“Grande! I know you!” Ryan exclaimed in surprise.
“Yeah, we seem to be quite popular these days.” Benjamin raised an eyebrow, stood up, and walked to the bench. “So you read the newspaper and learned the changes in the world in the past three years? I’m beginning to like you.”
“What do you want? !” Ryan was agitated, and a strong sense of defeat invaded his mind. As a person who fully inherited the spirit of the federal Indigenous Inans, he and his family didn’t know that in the city they lived in also lived an alpha and a wolf pack. After ending the three years’ ‘life’ of Earthbound Spirit, and within a week of his resurrection, his identity was discovered by this wolf!
“Relax.” Benjamin smiled, looked at the young man, and shook his head. “I have no interest in making you my Shaman. As I said, I’m here for Kyle.”
Ryan heaved a sigh of relief, but his body remained tense, keeping Benjamin at arm’s length. “As I said, I didn’t do anything to him!”
“I know, but I might ask you to do something for him.” Benjamin thought for a moment and said, “First of all, I want to know what really happened. Be aware that his unusual attention to you has caused him to behave in a way that others around him are beginning to notice his strange behavior. I’m just helping him get back to normal, in other words.” Benjamin looked at Ryan, who was still on guard, and leaned in friendly. “I’m helping you, too, so why don’t we help each other?”
After a long silence, Ryan nodded. “Okay, I’ll accept it! But I also have a request! Don’t tell my family I’m here!” Ryan pointed to his body.
Benjamin nodded.
“First of all, that Kyle!” Ryan’s eyes suddenly became cold. “He’s not some good person. First time. It might be an accident! But he tried to kill me! The second time!”
Benjamin raised his eyebrows. “Be specific, please.”

Zach waved to disperse the dust in what looked like an abandoned classroom, dusty textbooks, tattered chairs, stained windows… Only a place in the corner of the classroom was clean, but Zach had seen bottles and cigarette butts stuffed into a pile of sundries. Clearly, this is a secret base for some students.
Kyle turned around in shock, wondering why he had suddenly decided to bring the man here. He wanted to say something and then leave, but his eyes once again saw the red dots.
“Tell me everything, from the time you accidentally killed Connor,” Zach spoke the words quietly, and then the vampire closed his eyes and rubbed his temples, his eyes became light green again when he opened. The land is lit by the sun, which is not the ideal time for the vampire.
“It was an accident!” Kyle’s mind was twisted by the vampire and forced into remembering it again. His face became agitated and tense. He was trying to explain. “I didn’t want… It was not my fault that he kept goading me!”
“Okay.” Zach waved his hands impatiently and took a chair to sit down. “What happened next.”
Kyle was still very agitated. “Lola came, she was urging me and Connor!” He covered his face. “I panicked! I didn’t know what to do! Connor! Connor, he was not breathing! I didn’t mean it! I…”
The vampire massaged his eyes. He didn’t stop him and decided to let this guy immerse himself in guilt for a while. Even if it wasn’t intentional, it didn’t mean that it wasn’t wrong, besides, a person died for it.
Kyle murmured for a while, and the incident finally moved on.
“I wanted to run, and pretended that none of this had happened! And then I did it! I left there, I left Connor lying there! I drove to the stadium!”
Kyle’s slightly relaxed mind became tense again. “I was trying to act like it didn’t happen! But I couldn’t… I know I was wrong! My head was about to explode! I was driving, that road, I knew Barton police was right ahead! I didn’t know what to do! I was scared…”
Zach put down his hand. If it hadn’t been for Mrs. Barton’s request, Zach wouldn’t have cared about this fellow. Every vampire knows that if you make a mistake, you need to be punished. This is the lesson taught by the ancestors of all vampires. The rule of nature.
In Zach’s mind, there was more interest in Connor than in Kyle.
Zach was reluctant to help such a man. But at least now knowing that Kyle was blaming himself and had even considered turning himself in, the impression of him in Zach’s mind improved a little.
“And then I met you.” Kyle’s expression froze slightly, then it quickly developed in a weird direction, “You said the beavers were going to lose a player in a traffic accident.”
Zach frowned. What was Kyle trying to say?
“So I went back to school…”
“Hehe!” Zach chuckled at the sudden realization! He shook his head and thought. ‘So it was this.’
Please don’t forget that Kyle was forced to learn the law, he knew that even if it was all ‘accidents’, it would develop into a completely different result!
In front of him, the balance of this eighteen-year-old boy in his heart had tilted to the dirty side!
“I went back to school, and I had a plan! I put Conor in my car, and I knew I was taking a risk! But I had to! I couldn’t ruin my own future! I kept reminding myself of the steps to follow! …”
In the locker room on the side of the playground, Benjamin frowned. Ryan’s fists clenched tightly.
“I just possessed this body, and I still needed time to get used to this body! I couldn’t move, but I could still hear him! He was talking to himself constantly! His plan! He has gone down to the dark path!”
Ryan’s face was filled with anger. “He got me in the car! I heard him say to himself, ‘Time! I need to hurry! Before the blood starts to clot! Becky East Street is currently under construction! I can do it! As long as I can control the distance!’…”
In the corner of the abandoned classroom, Zach stared at the increasingly agitated Kyle. On his exposed neck, the bulging veins attracted the vampire!
“I know I can do it! Acceleration, right turn, impact… I will hit the steering wheel! I may break a few ribs, but the seat belt will save my life! But he won’t! He’ll just hit the front window! He’ll fly out! He would ‘die’ on the spot…”
The locker room, Ryan.
“He went on talking to himself, not knowing that I had heard everything! ‘We were arguing! All the players can testify! This can explain why Connor did not wear the seatbelt and why was there a sudden turn, why was there a tragedy! This is the most perfect testimony! I will be able to get away! …’ I heard, everything!”
The corner of the classroom, Kyle.
“Everything is perfect! My plan can succeed! I know it will succeed!” Kyle’s expression already became completely twisted, with a mad smile, “Until! Until! …”
The locker room, Ryan.
“When I opened my eyes, Becky East Street was right in front of me!” Ryan punched the locker, The loud noise reverberated in the empty room.
Benjamin heaved a long sigh, “At least you stopped him in time. You are still alive, you are lucky.” Benjamin looked away and murmured, “The other guy may not be so lucky.”
The corner of the classroom.
Zach raised his head, his eyes closed slowly, a look of satisfaction. The bright red tongue licked the remaining blood from the corner of the mouth. “The taste is not too bad.”
The fatigue of the vampire’s movement during the day was finally dispelled with the injection of fresh food. Zach moved his hands comfortably and pushed away the teenager he lifted with one hand. Kyle’s eyes were unfocused, and he gradually lost consciousness and collapsed on the ground that was not very clean.
Zach looked at the ground, Kyle, who was breathing weakly. He decided to discuss with Benjamin.
