Chapter 65 - speech
Su Qi’s grandmother, Ms. Adele, invited Bill to the church to give a speech. Benny also went to listen. He was with Bobby and John’s family. As for 11, he went to the prom with Mike and the others.
Benny was originally worried about going to the prom at 11, but Jonathan later pledged that he would look at the little guys and promise to send them home when the time came, and would never let them participate in any weird sports. , Benny thought about it three times before he agreed.
Bill in front of the stage is wearing an old-fashioned plaid suit, his hair is meticulously managed, and his pale complexion is added. He is quite a medieval European aristocratic style. Standing on the stage and talking, his words are clear and his expression is smooth, which makes Benny slander. Endless.
No one was making trouble, everyone was fanning their fans and listening to Bill’s speech.
Bill started with his family, talked about his participation in the Civil War, and then his wife and children died one after another, and then he broke an anecdote.
Andy of the Beverler family turned out to be his great, great, great… grandson!
Impulsive and irritable, conservative in thought, Andy, who had always wanted to be repelled by Bill, was stunned on the spot, then petrified and shattered into a scum.
The crowd in the church also became agitated.
At a critical moment, the mayor took out his great-great-grandfather… the photo of his grandfather and handed it to Bill, stating that the great-great-great… grandfather had participated in the Civil War, but there has been no news and brought the topic back to the Civil War.
“I know him.” Bill glanced at the photo, rubbing his fingers lightly over the handsome young man, his eyes full of memories.
“He is a brave soldier.”
“In order to save a wounded civilian, he was killed by the enemy.”
Bill told the scene of the war in a low tone. He was very good at telling stories, setting the atmosphere to the right level, making the audience immersive and quickly attracted.
After answering a few more questions, Bill concluded
“My family, the Compton family, have lived here for generations, and I have also lived in Hawkins. This is not only your home, but also my home. Although I am a vampire, I have had an unbearable past, but I don’t Will hurt my family,
Now that I come back, I just want to live quietly in this familiar land. If my identity as a vampire has a bad influence on everyone, I am sorry, if everyone is still afraid, I will restrain myself and try to stay away from everyone. Some, do not disturb everyone’s life. “
“I just want to live quietly in this land where I used to live and where my wife and children were ruined. There is no other request.”
Bill said this sincerely and moved many people. There was enthusiastic applause from the audience. It seemed that after a short speech, everyone had gotten rid of their fear of vampires.
John clapped his hands and curled his mouth in disdain. Kate on the side didn’t even bother to do it, staring at Bill on the stage with piercing eyes.
The speech was very successful and eliminated many people’s fear of vampires.
People began to leave the field, and Bill and Adele stood at the door, hugged them one by one, and blessed each other.
“Where are the two girls killed by vampires?” Andy walked to the door and did not hug Bill. “Bill Compton, I will stare at you. I won’t let you destroy my Hawkins!”
Adele hurriedly stepped forward to take Andira away.
“Brother, I understand you. They don’t understand, I understand you.” Andy’s cousin also came, and he embraced Bill with tears and said sadly, “We are all the same. I understand. you.”
After this time, not only the people around him looked dumbfounded, but Bill was also a little dumbfounded. He reacted quickly. Although he didn’t know what happened, he still held Terry and patted him on the back.
After Terry left, it was Benny’s turn.
“Good point.”
Benny didn’t hug Bill, just smiled and shook hands.
“Thank you, thank you for your understanding.”
Bill answered seriously.
“Ah–“
Kate behind him let out an unexplained sneer, hugged Adam, and hurriedly got on the impala and left John.
“Stay away from my sister!”
Su Qi’s elder brother Jason warned, and was driven away by Adele who had just returned.
Soon, the people in the church were almost gone, and Su Qi came to Bill.
“Oh, you can go to the bar for a drink, I have to go back and rest.” Adele winked at Bill “Bill, take care of Su Qi.”
After speaking, Adele left with a smile.
There are only two people left in the church, Bill and Suki.
Neither of them spoke, but just stood face to face, staring at each other affectionately and intently.
The two got closer and closer, and they kissed deeply.
……………………………………
Benny stopped the chattering Andy.
Knowing that Benny and Hope are best friends, Andy opened the door with a smile and invited Benny into the car.
Benny did not refuse and got in the car.
“Andy, I’m missing a chef, can I get Terry over?”
On the way, Benny asked.
Andy looked back at Terry, who was sitting silently behind him, with some surprise.
“Of course, I mean, yes, yes, absolutely, Ben. Terry has been cooking since he was a child, and has been praised by my mother. You should really try his macaroni and cheese, that’s our Bever The secret recipe of the Le family, it tastes great…”
Andy was strongly recommending his cousin, what vampire, what two girls who died, in front of his cousin, he was immediately thrown away.
Benny looked back at Terry, who quickly shifted his gaze and looked out the window.
“I heard……”
“Don’t listen to them nonsense!”
Andy braked the car to the side of the road and said loudly, “They all said Terry was crazy, they were talking nonsense! Terry just came back from the battlefield, not used to it!”
Benny nodded and looked at Andy’s fierce expression to show that everything you said was right.
“Terry, would you like to come?”
Andy followed and looked back at Terry, wishing to press Terry’s head and nod quickly.
“I will hurt people around me.”
Terry muttered.
“No. You don’t have to contact too many people. You just need to cook in the kitchen. By the way, if you don’t have a place to live, you can live with me. I have a place there.”
Benny persuaded.
After hesitating for a long time, Terry finally nodded with the encouragement of Andy and Benny.
“Thank you, Ben!” Andy said sincerely, “I owe you a favor.”
“You don’t know, I tried my best to get Terry into everyone, but it didn’t work at all. Before my mother passed away, I kept telling me to take good care of Terry…”
With that, Andy choked up.
Benny waved his hand quickly. “Don’t care. I also need Terry’s help. We are mutually beneficial.”
Andy wiped his tears. “Anyway, thank you, Ben.”
