13 Mink Street

"It seems that our Mr. Cullen really doesn't know about it."

"Yes, my position is still too low. I can't get in touch with the high-level affairs of the church."

Ophelia reflected the light through the elevator door in front of her, and glanced at Karen standing behind her with some curiosity.

She thought this man was very interesting. Apart from other things, this kind of statement that generously admitted her low status without the slightest emotion made people feel inexplicably comfortable.

Because he is not the kind of resignation and self-deprecating, but seems very natural, with a feeling of breaking away from the shackles of identity.

The young master of the chief bishop's family who had invited him to dance at the banquet earlier, while dancing, was still talking to himself about his grandfather's various arrangements. It was a completely different style of painting.

The latter made her feel a little greasy in the normal way, which was similar to the Wien dishes she recognized;

But the former, that is, Karen, can always give himself a fresh look, and chatting with him can make people feel very comfortable.

Because Ophelia has jumped out of the "class circle" in the traditional sense, one is that she has not experienced the so-called pressure of survival, and the other is because of the special status of Dark Moon Island, she has the self-knowledge of marriage, her family and the dark Yue Dao also has a need for foreign marriage, but it is not as serious and urgent.

Under the premise that there is no immediate and visible pressure in front of people, the sensibility is easy to become sharp.

Therefore, rather than saying that Karen made her feel refreshed, it might be better to say that she found a certain temperament in Karen that was similar to her own.

But Ophelia couldn't think about it here, because she didn't think that a member of Whip of Order could have a state of mind that matched her status.

Because it was even more impossible for her to know that the person who blew up the Temple of Order was the grandfather of the young man behind her.

The elevator door opened, and after sending Ophelia into the room, Karen also returned to the opposite guest room, picked up the phone, and called the funeral home. Sure enough, the loyal contractor Alfred still stood firm. On the job site.

Karen informed Alfred of the matter and the arrangements for the Allen family, most importantly of repairing Pu'er's tomb, and exchanged a few words of "miserable" used on the tombstone "After the poetry sentence, I hung up the phone.

He is not worried that his phone will be monitored, because strictly speaking, he is now the monitor.

Immediately after pouring himself a glass of ice water, Karen sat down on the sofa.

I really didn't expect that grandpa's bombing of the Temple of Order would have such a far-reaching impact, and the waves would reach the present.

Rumors can sometimes cause a giant to collapse;

The rumors that the God of Order gave up the Cult of Order spread outside the world, indeed set off a chain reaction, which is equivalent to the fact that a God Cult has been drawn out of its real trump card;

Because although the Cult of Order is powerful, it is impossible for one family to face the entire church circle alone.

In particular, after the fall of the Sect of Light in this era, the Sect of Order has stood upright as a bully until the present Sect of Order, which has long replaced the previous position of the Sect of Light;

So, since light can be destroyed, why can't order die?

Karen took a sip of ice water, then swirled the glass in front of her, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth subconsciously.

Grandpa's bombing, the aftermath of which has developed to the present, has affected the "soft power" of the Cult of Order, especially in conjunction with the so-called "the gods are about to wake up" trend, which has destroyed and destroyed the "cultural soft power" of the Cult of Order , becomes more serious.

"Invincible" means that no one dares to stand in the ring with you;

"Very strong" means that someone has begun to weigh the number of wins and losses with you, even if they only have a 20-30% winning rate, they finally have the confidence to challenge you.

This is a very different concept.

So, are the recent actions of the Cult of Kosmos to deal with the crisis, or have they taken a proactive approach, looking for an opportunity to show their strength and regain their influence?

The door of the room was opened, and Xie Cai walked in. Because Karen didn't turn on the light, the room was a little dark, but Xie Xi saw Karen sitting on the sofa with deep eyes.

"Can I turn on the light?" He asked.

"Yes, of course."

"Snapped!"

Xie Yao turned on the light, walked to Karen and sat down on the sofa, lit a cigarette, and said:

"When I first came in, I saw you sitting here thinking, and I felt a little charming."

"Hehe, that's right." Karen smiled, "What would you like to drink?"

"No need, I'm too full now." Xie Yao waved his hand, "What do you think of tonight's food?"

"great."

Karen found the feeling of eating rice when she was a child.

"This kind of opportunity is rare. There were not many such opportunities in Sangpu City before, and the grade was not as high as that of York City. But there will probably be many security tasks in the future."

Xie Cai winked at Karen.

"That would be great."

"Oh, by the way, the lady's maid on the other side seems to dislike you."

"Oh, yeah?" Karen shrugged. "I didn't notice."

"Yes, don't pay attention to this kind of person. The more servants you have around a big shot, the easier it is to have the illusion that you are a big shot."

"Do dogs see people as inferior?"

"I like this analogy very much, I wrote it down, hahaha."

Xie Cai pointed to the bed with a smile, and said, "Go to sleep, I will watch the first half of the night, and Fanny will watch the second half of the night."

"Don't you need to arrange for me?" Karen asked.

Either way, it's always bad for the two ladies to keep vigil and sleep by themselves.

"Unless you think that the lady across from you will call you over in the middle of the night and then something else will happen..."

"I don't think so." Karen said immediately.

"Then you can sleep well to recharge your energy, and deal with her call during the day, well, you're welcome, just be more straightforward, don't twitch, and show the decisiveness you said in the afternoon that we are old."

"You're actually quite attractive, really."

"I want to remedy it now, oh, it's too late."

Karen took off her coat, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep.

Although my personal security team has always been a little laughing, and even the whole team looks a little unreliable, but in fact, everyone's professional quality is very high.

Perhaps, it is precisely because of the high professional quality that I have the calmness to carry out "lively" in "serious".

Go to sleep and rest.

Karen soon fell asleep. He vaguely heard the sound of Fanny opening the door and coming back, but he didn't wake up. Immediately, he felt Fanny's movement of falling asleep directly beside him.

Then, the wall clock in the guest room was slowly moving.

Karen thought that his light sleep could last until morning, but what he didn't expect was that when he fell asleep, he felt a little hot.

Deep inside, it seemed like a fire was being seduced.

It's not desire...but some kind of energy attribute, or some kind of spiritual imprint or inertia.

Karen began to subconsciously search for the source of this feeling, and finally realized that it was the [Dark Moon Blade] in his body that was slowly and spontaneously operating.

Karen, who realized the root cause, immediately stopped the operation of the spell, then sat up, and saw that the person sleeping next to him was not Fanny but 姵茖, and it was very close to him;

It's so dangerous, if I had successfully operated [Dark Moon Blade] inexplicably before, it was really possible to cut off the sister who was sleeping next to me.

Because she was sleeping next to her teammates, and there were people "watching the night", and she didn't have any murderous intentions. Therefore, no matter how vigilant she was, it would be difficult for her to guard against a sneak attack in this situation.

At the same time, in the opposite room, Ophelia, who was doing daily meditation with a red long sword, also opened her eyes with some doubts.

"What's the matter, Miss?" The female warrior who was meditating and practicing Dharma protection for Miss asked with concern.

"I was like, sensing something."

"This is the Ankara Hotel. There are many people from the church circle living here. Maybe there are other people who are using the night time to practice like you, Miss, so there is some resonance in the air mechanism."

"Well, it should be like this."

Ophelia nodded, and lightly touched the long sword in her hand with her palm. The blood on the long sword overflowed instantly, and the breath of the Dark Moon Blade became extremely strong. She closed her eyes again and continued the interrupted meditation.

…

"Dream?"

It was Fanny who was talking. She was sitting on the sofa with her feet on the tea table and cutting her nails.

"Yeah." Karen nodded, "On the first day of the mission, I feel a little uneasy."

"You don't have to explain this to me." Fanny smiled, "Anyway, I wouldn't think that it's because your concubine is sleeping naked next to you that you're so restless that you can't fall asleep."

When Karen heard this, he glanced beside him and found that Michelle was really not wearing any clothes. The strange thing was that he hadn't noticed it before;

It was probably because she had been naked by her side during the day, so she subconsciously thought it was normal.

"Isn't she worried that something will happen suddenly at night and it's too late to get dressed?"

"What's the matter if you don't wear clothes?" Fanny didn't care, "I won't lose a piece of meat after being looked at a few times, as long as my life is alive."

"Okay, I know."

"Did your life before be very peaceful?" Fanny asked.

"um, yes."

"That's no wonder, just get used to it slowly."

"I will."

Karen felt that Neo's team was like a team of mercenaries, and what Xi Cai and Fanny showed was not debauchery, but indifference.

Not wearing clothes is nothing in their eyes, even if their arms and legs are broken, they will continue to grit their teeth and fight.

People who are often hovering on the edge of life and death tend to shed more unnecessary burdens and encumbrances than ordinary people.

Karen got out of bed, poured herself a glass of ice water, and refilled Fanny's coffee.

Then, Karen sat down opposite Fanny.

Sleep, I can't sleep, but it's already 4:30 in the morning, and it's almost dawn anyway.

Fanny continued to trim her toenails, blowing them from time to time.

"How did you meet your girlfriend?"

"A blind date arranged by the parents of both parties."

"Oh, so old-fashioned."

Karen nodded.

After a while, Fanny said, "Why don't you ask me about my relationship experience? After all, I just asked you. If you respond according to the etiquette, you should also ask me."

"Because I don't think it will be a good result."

Fanny's hand holding the nail clippers stopped moving,

road:

"I used to be a non-staff member just like you.

I met a guy in the team, he is not handsome, he is even a bit ugly, but he said he likes me, well, since he likes me, I will fall in love with him, anyway, we are in the same team, I was younger than I am now..."

"You're not old now, really, very attractive."

"Do you know what behavior is the most disgusting? After happily stabbing the knife, you pretend to care about you and sprinkle sugar on your wound. It's a fart."

"okay."

"Anyway, I thought at the beginning that in a team, I didn't need to take advantage of other men, so I closed my eyes and stayed with him. I also closed my eyes when I went to bed."

Karen listened in silence.

After a while, Fanny asked again: "Why don't you ask which one he is? Didn't you already know them all during the day? Have you remembered everyone's name?"

"remember."

"Aren't you curious who it is?" Fanny asked.

"You're not a non-staff now," Karen said.

"Dry!"

Fanny threw the nail clippers directly on the carpet, and looked at Karen helplessly:

"Chatting with you is really boring. I don't have any sense of expectation. I have no sense of expectation."

"terribly sorry……"

"Yes, you guessed it right, he died, he died protecting me during a mission, and then I made up for it, from a non-staff member to a regular member."

Karen nodded.

"Do you know what the last two words he said to me when he was lying in my arms before he died from serious injuries?"

Last... two sentences?

Karen looked at Fanny with a look of embarrassment.

"Try to guess?" Fanny urged.

"Could you not close your eyes the next time I have sex with you."

"Damn it!" Fanny cursed.

Obviously, Karen guessed right.

"What about the second sentence, guess it!"

"I can't guess it," Karen said.

"Quick guess!"

Karen moved his gaze to the floor-to-ceiling windows and said, "I don't want to keep pushing behind."

"Dry!!!"

Fanny went completely berserk.

"Are you doing it or not?" Xie Yao was woken up, she was lying on the bed with her head on her hands and looked here, "Should I let the bed out?"

"If I didn't know that he was certified as a servant of the gods, I would really wonder if this guy is a bewitching monster lurking in the ranks of the God of Order!"

Karen licked his lips, a little helpless, he didn't want to continue this topic from the beginning.

"Hey." Xie Qiao laughed, "Very interesting newcomer, really."

"You can talk to him about your relationship history." Fanny suggested, "Trust me, there will be surprises."

"Oh, I'm not stupid, I woke up early, and then I saw you dragging someone to chat, and in the end, you were stripped of your short-speaking underwear, oh no, you were directly put on your head. It's really interesting."

"Do you know how the captain described him at the beginning? The captain said that he was recommended by Mr. Pavaro, and he will definitely become a completely different brilliance in our team.

Now I find that he is actually darker than us. "

"Hey." Xie Qiao got out of bed, picked up a piece of clothing and put it on her body, walked over, lit a cigarette, looked at Karen, and said, "Isn't this good? A little white rabbit came among the hounds? At that time, who will die to protect him, that would be called suffering."

Karen asked, "Today's schedule..."

Fanny said: "The application for today's itinerary has been completed. I will leave for Allen Manor at ten o'clock in the morning. They asked if we need to add additional security equipment, but I rejected it in the name of the captain. Well, the captain himself will definitely refuse. .”

"Of course you have to refuse. The rewards for a mission are the last calculations. If other teams intervene in the middle, even if they just show up, they will definitely have to argue in the end." Xie said.

"In addition, there is one more thing. Our mission schedule for this time will be prolonged." Fanny said, "According to the above, if the talks go well, the Church of God will set up a missionary office on Dark Moon Island, and the Dark Moon Clan will A small number of islanders and family members will also be allowed to believe in my religion, and our team will be responsible for escorting Miss Ophelia's delegation back, and part-time escorting missionaries and other staff sent to Darkmoon Island."

Karen asked: "Doesn't this mean that our rewards for this mission will be more?"

"It's like a reward for two missions, and it's treated as one mission." Xie Yao said.

Fanny smiled and said: "The most important thing is that according to the usual practice, when we leave Darkmoon Island, the Darkmoon Family will definitely give us extra hard work fees. This hard work fee will definitely not be low. It can be called three The task was done together."

Xi Yao said with emotion: "Oh, I love York City, this is called a mission, no, this is called a real vacation!"

…

In the morning, the doorbell rang.

"Go." Fanny said.

"Let's go." Xie Yao.

Karen stood up and opened the door. It was the maid who stood at the door and said to Karen, "Miss wants to invite Mr. Karen to have breakfast."

"OK."

Karen walked to the opposite room, and the dining car had already pushed in here. There were a lot of food on it, some of which he had eaten at the banquet last night, and some of which he hadn't eaten. At first glance, they could only be purchased with coupons. high-end ingredients.

This meal standard is really ridiculously high, even the breakfast is so extravagant, the breakfast opposite him must be far inferior to this.

Karen picked up the tray, loaded the food cart with food, and sat down to eat.

After finishing one plate, he stood up and walked to the dining car, filled another plate, and sat down to continue eating.

He felt that this breakfast probably cost Mr. Pavaro more than three months' salary.

From beginning to end, Ophelia just took a few sips and spent most of the time drinking milk while watching Karen eat with a smile.

Karen said in his heart: What a prodigal, can't you buy it in the milk store?

Finally, Karen was full.

"Vien's food is not as scary as I imagined before I came here." Ophelia laughed.

"Because what you eat, miss, is not something that ordinary Venn people can eat."

"Oh, you mean it's a pity I didn't taste it?"

"No, it's a kind of luck."

"Oh, you always make me happy, Mr. Cullen."

At this time, the maid Xin La reminded: "Miss, you can prepare for today's itinerary." Then, she looked at Karen, meaning that Karen can avoid it first.

"Yeah." Ophelia nodded.

"Miss, I am waiting for you outside." Karen stood up and walked to the dining car naturally, "Miss, I will help you push the dining car out."

"Okay, trouble...you."

"You don't have to trouble Mr. Cullen." Xin La stepped forward and said.

"It's okay, I'm happy to serve you, you're welcome." Karen smiled and insisted on pushing the dining car out of the room. After closing the door, she pushed it straight into the opposite room. Xie and Fanny immediately got up and walked over.

"Come, come, eat something delicious."

"Haha, it's great! This has long surpassed the Ankara Hotel's VIP meal standard, and they must have ordered it themselves. As expected of the big family of Dark Moon Island, the breakfast is so extravagant."

"There are so many, let's eat first, and pack the rest in a bag and send them to the captain later. The captain likes lizard dragon barbecue the most."

Karen smiled and said, "You guys eat first, I'll find a bag to pack."

In the opposite room,

Ophelia looked at the place where the dining car was placed before, and covered her stomach with her hands.

She is a martial artist, and one of the characteristics of martial arts practitioners is that she has a very large appetite, and she needs to eat a lot of food for each meal. She didn't eat much at the banquet last night, and only cared about socializing.

And just now, in front of Karen, she was embarrassed to really start eating to show her appetite. She just drank some milk to pad her hunger, thinking that she would feast on it after Karen left, but in the end...

"He... actually pushed the dining car away."

Miss Ophelia bit her lip,

Some grievances said:

"I am so hungry……"

And at night.
