13 Mink Street

The VIP car parked outside Naton's villa without going too deep.

Neo turned off the car and reminded: "Don't use the concealment formation when you are not on a mission. Do you know how much spirit stones are consumed?"

Karen didn't speak, and rolled down the car window to breathe.

Neo continued to advise: "Besides, the war between Luna Sect and Reincarnation is not over yet. These two Sacred Sects were originally the export places of the two main attribute spirit stones. The war has caused the price of spirit stones to increase in an all-round way. So it’s not as bad as before, and you still have to save money. From your smoking habit, you can tell, alas, a person who has never had a hard life doesn’t understand this truth.”

Karen could only fight back: "I just think that as long as I don't increase leverage investment and spend normally, there shouldn't be a day when I will be on the top."

"Listen, this is your fault again, as the boss, I was reasoning with you, but in the end you are attacking personally here.

Who am I adding leverage for? Isn’t it because I can lend you some coupons one day earlier so that you can buy back all the war equipment on [Black Prison Castle]? Isn't it just to decorate your office beautifully and make you live comfortably? "

"If you really want to be so shameless, I have nothing to say."

"Facts are better than countless arguments."

"By the way, when will the modification of my second-hand Pens be finished?"

"Come on, come on, what are you urging, after this series of cases are completed and our status is higher, those favors will be better worth the price, right?

Even if he was merciless, wouldn't he become human again? "

"Is this considered corruption and bribery?"

"The better the performance of your car, the better it is for carrying out your work, and it is more conducive to cracking down on illegal and criminal activities in the church? Out of public interest, it is low-level to talk about corruption and bribery, isn't it?"

Neo waved his hand, picked up the cup and took a sip of water.

At this time, a black crow flew to the window.

Seeing this, Neo said again: "Look, you should turn off the shielding circle as soon as possible. If you keep it on, the summoning crow may not be able to find you. Thanks to this crow's level is relatively high, and it is very useful. Expensive spell paper, dry, it looks like Bernie's!

To be honest, I really don't like rich bosses. If they are rich, they often don't like money. This will leave me no room to take advantage of. Look at you, how lucky you are to have a boss like me. "

"Yes, I am very happy."

Karen reached out and grabbed the black crow, took it apart, glanced at it, and handed it to Neo. The crow was originally sent to Neo by Bernie.

After reading it, Neo smiled and said, "Ha, what am I talking about? Complex problems often hide the simplest solutions. Let's go to the restaurant and meet our poor Mr. Darius."

"I don't think it's that simple."

"It's okay. When we meet, you should pay attention to observe and see what his real purpose is. In short, we are not at a loss, aren't we?"

"Um."

Karen restarted the car and drove to a nearby high-end restaurant.

After saying Darius' name to the waiter, the waiter ushered Karen and Neo into the box.

A middle-aged man was sitting there with a menu to order. Seeing Karen and Neo coming in, he stood up and smiled, "You two came really fast."

Neo stepped forward to shake hands with Darius, and said, "Because we originally wanted to talk to you, Mr. Darris."

"Then we want to go together, come on, please sit down." Dalis said while pouring water, "I noticed Captain Karen in the broadcast screen, and your temperament in reality makes me even more envious, maybe , Being a diplomat is also a good way.”

"Thank you, I have always been curious about foreign affairs."

After Dalis sat down, he handed the menu to the waiter next to him:

"We're all here, let's serve the food now, and tell the back kitchen to hurry up."

"Okay, sir."

After the waiter went out, Darius took out a cigarette case from his pocket and introduced:

"The cigarettes that the senior priests of the Thunder God Sect like to smoke have always been special products for internal use. They are only rarely sold to the outside world. They are usually not available for purchase. Do you two smoke? Do you want to try it?"

"I've heard of this kind of cigarette, and the ones on the market are very expensive. The price is outrageous." Neo stood up, picked up the cigarette case from Dalis, took out one and handed it to Dalis: "Give."

Darius took his cigarette from Neo and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

After speaking, Neo brought the cigarette case over, took out two cigarettes, one for himself and one for Karen, and placed the cigarette case in front of them.

Karen took the lighter from his pocket and lit it.

After taking the first sip, there was a force directly entering his body, and then a slight numbness began to stimulate his nerves. No, to be precise, even the soul felt a feeling similar to fingertips roaming on the back. The sour and itchy feeling is extremely ecstasy.

After spitting it out slowly, that feeling began to gradually recede, and even the emotions of the whole person were completely driven, which made it impossible to stop.

With just this one sip, Karen believed that this cigarette must be very expensive, many times more expensive than the coupon cigarettes that Ventura helped him get from the hotel before. It is no longer in the category of cigarettes, it should be a high-end spiritual potion .

"Oh oh oh~~~"

Neo on the side made a long and refreshing sound. Neo has been looking for this kind of spiritual medicine for a long time, but most of the low-end ones can no longer give him the stimulation he needs.

"The soul strength of the two of you, I am amazed."

Darius picked up the lighter and lit the cigarette in front of him, then put it in front of him, fanned the smoke lightly with his hand, took a small breath, then took a long breath, and put the cigarette aside.

Seeing this, Karen and Neo looked at each other: shame.

Dalis said with a smile: "Since it looks like a cigarette, it can definitely be smoked directly, but the requirements for the strength of the smoker's soul are relatively high, so I can't bear to smoke it directly.

If you like it, I still have one that has been disassembled, and the remaining 10 packs will be given to you at that time. After all, smoking like me is a waste. "

Neo said: "That's so embarrassing, Mr. Dalis, you can directly deliver it to our headquarters building, and the Disciplinary Inspection Office will sign for it."

"Don't be so troublesome. I received a letter from your office to assist in the investigation. After this meal is over, I will go home first, bring out my things, and give you gifts when I return to the headquarters with you."

Neo laughed and said, "Since we are assisting in the investigation, we don't limit the specific location. It's just a little more convenient to go back to the headquarters building, but if the investigation has already achieved results, it's the same everywhere."

"Is that so, thank you." Dalis crossed his hands on the table, "Then let's start, please rest assured, the conversation here is absolutely safe and no one will eavesdrop, besides, I am the person under investigation, you are the investigator Man, the conversation between us doesn’t have the kind of fear of being eavesdropped, does it?”

"Okay, let's start first, anyway, the food hasn't been served yet." Neo glanced at Karen, who took out a notebook and a pen.

"I'll do my best to cooperate."

"Okay, Mr. Darius, let's first..." Neo hesitated, then leaned forward, moved his face as close as possible to Darris across the dining table, and asked, "Dalis Let's just get straight to the point, sir, shall we?"

"Of course, as a diplomatic priest, in fact, I have long hated those repetitions of diplomatic rhetoric that don't have much meaning."

"We need your help to bring down your father, Bishop Dolfo. We want Bishop Dolfo to go to jail, stand trial, and at best, be sentenced to death."

"If my father is really guilty, I feel that it is my duty to assist you in the investigation. After all, although he is my father, I am also a devout believer in order."

"Okay, what's your opinion on Vicolai and your brother Trissen?"

"Vicole has already been tried. I believe in the majesty and sanctity of the Whip of Order Tribunal. As for my brother Trissen, isn't he under investigation? I believe in the results of the investigation and the trial."

Neo nodded, meaning there was something to be said.

Karen wrote in the notebook: Too calm, like an outsider, not like revenge because of his wife, more like having other reliance.

Neo glanced at Karen's notebook, as if he was checking Karen's records for the next question.

"Mr. Dalis, do you have some criminal evidence of your father? I think, as a family member, you should have some clues that are difficult for our external investigators to obtain."

Dalis shook his head and said: "Father's character is very arrogant and domineering, and his methods of doing things have always been very self-centered, but basically he does things within the scope of the bishop's power. As for the kind of criminal evidence you want...can directly link There is very little, or even almost none, that comes to the father.

Because he just needs to sit there, basically he doesn't have to do anything himself. "

"There really isn't any?"

"Father may know more than half of what happened to Vicole, Trissen, and other people who are attached to our family, but the guilt cannot be implicated on his head, at most it is on his son and subordinates , it's over.

Therefore, it is really difficult for you to convict your father from this aspect. "

Neo changed his way of asking questions and asked, "Then can you give us some ideas and inspiration?"

"I can't talk about enlightenment. In fact, this is what you will do next. My suggestion is to omit the steps in the middle, because it is really difficult for you to get through my father's subordinates and family. He might as well just find some big crimes and put them on my father's head.

For example, suspected of colluding with other religious religions, betraying the interests of the religion; the crime of apostasy is one of the most serious crimes, and then the crimes of other people around my father can be linked to him, from top to bottom, It's always easier than bottom-up. "

Neo shook his head and said, "We still hope to have some definite evidence."

"Sometimes you need evidence, and sometimes you don't really need it. I know that the Regional Management Office and your Whip of Order are now joining forces to sacrifice my Nadun family.

The reputation of the Naton family, my father's reputation, is now at its lowest point, and no one above will go after him at this time.

At this time, political means will work better than procedural justice.

From the perspective of my son, I feel that my father is very sorry for his position and his belief. "

Neo heard the meaning behind the words, and immediately asked: "What do you mean?"

Dalis nodded and said, "I am willing to serve as a tainted witness to report my father's crime of secretly colluding with the Thunder God Sect in order to apostate."

As soon as he finished speaking, Darius took out a document, put it on the dining table, and pushed it in front of Neo and Karen.

"It's about me representing my Nadun family's interest exchanges with relevant personnel of the Thunder God Sect. Some are secretly cooperating, while others are tacit understandings on the surface. How should I put it, there are behaviors that are suspected of taking advantage of my position to gain benefits for the family. But more than half of them are the unspoken rules of the job, but these unspoken rules are not visible.

In fact, all that is needed to bring down my father is a suitable reason. This reason, this witness, is up to me.

Moreover, the Divine Cult should not stimulate the relationship with the Thunder Divine Cult for this matter, so the trial may be held in secret, so that everything can be handled quickly, at least there will be no need for Captain Karen like last time Please bring out the artifact to testify the scene.

What do you think of my proposal? "

"I think it's good." Neo nodded, "It's much better than the best I expected."

Karen wrote in the notebook: His real purpose is not to avenge his father, but to destroy his family.

Neo glanced at it, and continued: "If things go this way, you need to go through the process again, and we will accept it as soon as possible, do you think it's okay?"

Dalis nodded and said, "It's about time, because my father should be trying to contact a great being related to my ancestors of the Dun family."

"I've heard this from both Trissen and Vicole. They said that there is a temple elder standing behind Naton's house."

"They are bragging, although the elder of the temple exists, and it is said that he also spoke when his father was competing for the position of bishop.

But in fact, that person just had a friendship with my great-great-grandfather, the ancestor of my Naton family, that's all.

I don't think that after my father contacted him, he would speak up about this matter again. Even if it is the worst case for you, it doesn't matter, because I was the one who came out to report my father.

From the point of view of that great existence, even if everyone in the Naton family was arrested and sentenced, at least I, the informant and tainted witness, can be preserved, and I even have a little credit.

As long as the Nadun family is not rooted out and completely wiped out, that great existence should be able to turn a blind eye to this matter. "

Karen pursed her lips and stopped recording.

He believed that Neo could also feel the horror of Darius Naton sitting in front of him. At this time, if he simply thought that he was revenge on his father for his wife's affairs, it would be an insult to the two of them. IQ up.

Even taking into account the family's biggest back-hand reaction, he really wants to reshuffle the whole family.

Footsteps came from outside the box, and the waiter began to serve the dishes. After the dishes were ready, Darius picked up the red wine bottle and asked, "Will you have a drink? Just wish us success in advance?"

Neo nodded and smiled, "Why not?"

The three of them raised their red wine glasses, touched each other lightly, and drank it all in one gulp.

Dalis continued to pour the wine while saying: "If you have any questions, you are welcome, you can just ask."

Neo shook his head and said: "There is nothing to ask, we just want to focus on the work at hand, of course, if we can become friends in the future, we can chat more easily."

"Okay, welcome anytime."

Next, everyone began to eat.

Karen and Neo were just eating together, while Darius ate quickly and attentively. Soon, he finished eating, and said apologetically when he picked up the napkin and wiped his mouth:

"Sorry, I haven't tasted the dishes of my hometown for a long time, and I can't hold back. I originally thought that I could eat them before you came, hehe."

"Being a diplomatic priest and living abroad all year round must be hard work," Karen said.

"It's not hard work. There are too many people in the divine religion who are contributing to the divine religion in a more difficult environment. I don't think it's hard work. Oh, yes, there is one more thing."

"Please tell me." Neo changed his sitting position.

"If you want to bring down my father more safely, then it's best not to treat him with the death penalty when suing. Unexpectedly and without touching the sensitive nerves of other factions in the church, including in order to better cooperate with the Whip of Order and the regional management office, I suggest that the main appeal should be to remove all positions of the father and add a ban to reflect.

Such a request can be accepted by many parties, and it can be implemented more securely.

Of course, I know that from the perspective of the two of you, I definitely hope that my father will be sentenced to death, preferably the kind of 'killing'.

You are right to want this, but I think your boss might not think so. "

"Thank you for your reminder, Mr. Darius." Karen said.

"You're welcome, this is what I should do. In fact, I really hope my father can die, really. But my father is different from others. If other bishops encountered such a thing, they would probably have written for the last bit of decency. The suicide note chose to commit suicide.

But my father is not a suicidal person, he will try his best to live a healthy life as much as possible.

Therefore, we don't need to expect that he will write a suicide note saying that he will choose to commit suicide after being sentenced to dismissal and confinement.

This beautiful situation, it will not happen. "

Having said that, Darius raised his glass again:

"After drinking this glass of wine, we will get busy. I hope it can end soon. I want to read a book quietly by myself."

Karen and Neo also raised their glasses, and everyone drank the last glass of wine.

Dalis put on his coat and said, "Both of you can wait for me here first. I'll come back when I go back to get some things. It may take a while. I want to say goodbye to my family."

"It's okay, you can do whatever you want, Mr. Darius."

"Okay, thank you for your understanding."

Dalis walked out of the box, and soon, the waiter delivered fruit plates and drinks to the box, which should have been ordered by Dalis when paying the bill.

Neo waved his hand and set up a simple enchantment:

"Looking at it now, the most sane member of the Nadun family is actually a cuckold."

Green hat has the same meaning as the "green hat" used by Karen in the Wien cultural language family, but the origin is different. This word comes from a story many years ago in the royal family of Wien. The queen often recruited men in order to satisfy herself. The waiter enters her bedroom to serve herself, because the queen inherits the throne, so her count's husband is not of high status, and compromises must be made in this regard.

In order to avoid embarrassment and "tolerance" each other, the queen's maid will use the color of the hat as a signal when the couple have breakfast together. If they choose a green hat to wear, it means that there will be men coming in today. Will actively avoid offering "office space" after breakfast.

After this story spread, the green hat has its special meaning.

Karen took a sip of the ice water and said, "I even have some doubts now that his father might have a reason for doing such a thing to his wife."

Neo looked at Karen in disbelief: "Oh, my God, do you know how twisted and perverted what you just said is?"

"Have you read the document? It was sent to our headquarters by his chief officer. It is different from Trieson's chain of evidence that is full of shit. His side seems a bit too clean, just like the one he himself handed over to us. A piece of evidence, most of which belong to unspoken rules of job income, just like we used to charge tea for protected people when we performed security tasks."

Neo picked up another cigarette, ready to light it, and said:

"If a normal person is placed in that abnormal family, will he appear abnormal if he is too normal?"

Karen responded:

"Sometimes, the one that seems the most normal can be the one that is the most abnormal."

"Then we will continue to wait here. If there is no accident, the matter should be dealt with quickly. By the way, that Trissen should be sentenced to obliteration, and that one will be left for me to practice. Don't rub the ashes anymore. gone."

"It's a pity, can't Dolfo be killed?"

"You are afraid that if you can't kill him this time, there will be some accidents in the future. There is no way to do this for the time being. Let's take him down first. Learn from Vicoley. After a few years, this incident has passed the limelight, and we will think about it again." The way to finish him off.

Anyway, as long as we can keep doing well, we don’t have to worry too much about those people who secretly stare at us with hatred. Those people only dare to rush up and bite you when you are down. At other times, they are more timid than anyone else. sharp.

Okay, okay, you want another one too?

Don't worry about this anymore, his son has said that it is impossible for Dolfo to commit suicide in order to write a suicide note for decency. "

...

"Are you tired?"

"Not tired."

"Actually, you should listen to me and sit there to rest. I can handle this matter by myself."

Philomena looked at Richard and said, "You are not qualified to order me to do things."

Richard shrugged, he had long been used to the way the girl in front of him spoke.

However, without her help, he would have to deal with these corpses until dawn alone.

After everything was done, Richard stretched his waist and said, "This is not far from the night market, why don't you go have a supper?"

Philomena stopped.

Richard continued: "I'm hungry, I want to have supper."

But Philomena still didn't respond.

Hey, what's wrong?

Richard walked to the front and found that Philomena was staring at the corner of the road ahead, where an old woman was standing.

The old woman was leaning on a cane in her hand, and she was wearing a brown robe, and she was also looking here.

"Who is she?" Richard asked.

"My grandma."

"Your grandma? Oh, she's just..."

At this time, Richard sensed a gust of wind appeared beside him, and immediately continued:

"Is she the kindest grandma you love the most that you often mention?"

"Young man, I don't believe that my granddaughter will say good things about me outside. Don't provoke our grandparents' feelings."

"How could it be, grandma?" Richard scratched his head, pretending to be innocent and innocent, and turned to look at Mrs. Fisher.

Mrs. Fisher took a breath, noticed the imprint on Richard's palm out of the corner of her eye, and asked:

"That waste snack from Guman's house?"

Richard immediately said: "Yes, it's me! Hello grandma, I have always wanted to visit you, but I have never been able to find the opportunity, hehe."

"Your grandma sure doesn't want you to visit my house."

"It's okay, I can come secretly without telling my grandma."

When Mrs. Fisher heard this, she laughed directly: "Your grandma is such a strong person, she can have a grandson like you, she is not mad at her, ha ha."

"My grandma's personality is much softer now, and she has already seen it." Richard responded.

Now grandma sees that Karen is just like her own grandson. The last time she bought a divine robe, she bought her own size as Karen's.

But this is also very good, Richard feels that he can't make grandma proud, so let grandma get a sense of substitution and pride from Karen, it's the same.

Philomena said, "Grandma, what are you doing?"

Mrs. Fisher looked at her granddaughter and asked doubtfully, "Can't I go out?"

Philomena shook her head.

Richard immediately answered: "Yes, of course you can. The elderly should go out more often and breathe fresh air, so as to live a long and healthy life. Grandma, you should go out more often."

"Faceless and skinless, who do you call grandma?"

"Aren't you on good terms with my grandma, so I just called her in and seemed close."

"Hehe, the relationship between me and your grandma is really not good, it's just that not many old people survived, and there are only a few who can talk in disguise.

In the past, the relationship between me and your grandma was very bad. "

"That's all about the previous generation. In fact, there is nothing you can't ignore, right?"

"Your grandfather couldn't talk without you back then, so he knew how to roll up his trouser legs and catch loach for barbecue. If he had your mouth, he should have saved a lot of effort back then."

"Hey, my grandpa is really wise. Pretending to be dull and unable to speak is also an impression, isn't it?"

"It's also possible, at least he coaxed your grandma into his hands. I still haven't figured out why your grandma fell in love with him. How could she be willing to choose a frog on the ground after seeing a giant dragon soaring in the sky? "

Richard responded: "Maybe it's because my grandma knows exactly what's right for her, and dragons don't belong to her."

Hearing these words, Mrs. Fisher's eyes suddenly turned cold.

Richard was completely imprisoned with his feet suspended in the air.

Mrs. Tang Li said the same thing to her, and now, her grandson is actually saying it to herself.

This pair of grandparents and grandchildren are really mocking themselves, they have a tacit understanding!

"Boy, I don't mind twisting your head off and sending it to your grandma with a fruit basket."

Philomena stood in front of Richard and looked at her grandma: "You didn't go out to see me."

"Of course, I'm going out this time to meet a kid. I'll come and see you. Okay, I should go. You haven't been home for a long time. Come back when you're done. Hey daddy .”

After Mrs. Fisher finished speaking, her figure disappeared from the spot.

Richard's imprisonment was lifted and he landed.

"Your grandma's temper is really bad." Richard said, "Well, let's have supper first."

"Wait a moment."

"What's the matter, what else?"

"I didn't say to my grandma, you're a piece of shit."

"Oh, haha, um."

...

"You have grown up, and you are no longer the little Darius who knelt in front of me."

Darius walked up to Mrs. Fisher and knelt down: "You don't seem to be old at all."

"Don't say compliments against your will, I don't like to hear this."

"yes."

"The Dun family is about to collapse."

"No, it's about to collapse."

"You are really a good boy of the Dun family." Mrs. Fisher moved forward while feeling emotional.

Darius stood up and followed her.

"I don't know what I thought at the beginning, but I decided to help you. Probably, it was because your grandpa made me feel very uncomfortable at the beginning, hehe."

"I think this should be a kind of predestined fate."

"Maybe, fate. Sometimes, there's nothing wrong with being a little selfish, right?"

"Yes, that's right."

"Even if it's because of you that you absorbed the aptitude and fortune of the blood relatives in the family, turning the Naton family into a heterogeneous family in the church circle of the entire region, and a family like a mad dog, it's still worth it, right?"

"Yes, as long as it's good for me."

"Well, now I recall why I stopped in front of you, why I spoke to you, why I asked you, do you want to do this.

Because at that time, even though you were just a child, I saw extremely strong selfishness under your gentle eyes. "

When Darius heard this, a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "I don't think there is anything in this world that can hide from your eyes."

"Now, all that's left is the finishing touches. The flower of the Naton family is about to wither, and then a brand new you will be born."

"These all come from your fulfillment."

"Go and thank your family. They have made too much contribution for you. Although, they may not know about it. No, your father should be aware of it, right?"

"Yes, he noticed it. He said that since I was eight years old, every time he stayed with me for a long time, he would feel irritable. He also said that he wanted to kill me.

However, how could he really discover your wisdom and secret techniques? He couldn't do it. "

"He didn't kill you, not because he didn't find out and couldn't do it, but because as a father, he couldn't bear to do it to you.

Your grandfather was a scumbag, and your father was a scumbag, too.

But there is one thing they are all the same, in terms of treating their own family members, they really have nothing to criticize.

To make a scumbag, in order to get revenge on you, just sleep with your wife and let your wife give birth to him, but still can't bear to kill you, this is really a father's love. "

"maybe."

"Have you regretted it? Even for a short while."

Dalis shook his head, smiled, and said, "It's just a dream, why should you care about it?"

"Okay, very good, this road, the most important thing is to keep going firmly, one day, dreams and reality will be reversed, you in the dream will wake up, and you in reality will return .

Darius, I am very satisfied with you, you are my best successor. "

"Everything about me comes from your gift, from the bottom of my heart, thank you."

"You don't need to thank me. I just use you as a test case. Seeing your success is the greatest affirmation I have for myself."

Mrs. Fisher took out a scroll and a black stone:

"This is the ending volume of the secret art. This stone can help you better distinguish between dreams and reality at the end."

"Yes, I will succeed."

"I believe you will."

"I also hope that you can succeed."

"Of course, I still feel that the curse that fell on my house was specially arranged by him to help me.

Hehe, he is always like this, he obviously likes it, but he doesn't like to say it out loud, but I can feel that he still cares about me, he still spoils me, he loves me. "

Darius didn't speak. When a woman is recalling the love she never got in the past, it's best not to break her artistic conception, because she doesn't need you to tell her that this is false, and she knows it very well in her heart.

But Mrs. Fisher asked, "Aren't you curious, who is the 'he' I'm talking about?"

"Ma'am, is that something I can ask?"

"You can ask, but I won't tell you. In fact, he also had a relationship with your family."

"Have you ever had a relationship with my family?"

"Remember where I met you?"

"At a very special funeral in my memory."

"Well, I wanted to come and see him."

"Is that his funeral?"

"Hehehehe, hahahaha..."

When Mrs. Fisher heard this, she laughed out loud, and it was so exaggerated that she bent over.

Dalis stood on the side, facing this somewhat terrifying old woman, he was a little at a loss.

Finally, Mrs. Fisher stopped, took a deep breath, and looked at the black sky in the distance: "Stop joking with me, no one can attend his funeral, because no one can kill him.

He is a giant dragon soaring in the sky. As long as you have seen his true appearance, when you look at other people, you will feel that they have lost their color. "

"He's a great guy."

"Okay, you can shut up now. I don't really like sharing things about him with others. I hope he will always belong to me alone."

It was you who asked me to ask, and I just cooperated with you.

But Darius could only apologize: "I'm sorry, I said something wrong."

"Okay, go back and get ready to finish. I'm waiting for your result, don't let me down. Although you lost your family, you will gain a stronger self.

Sometimes, family has no meaning, it can even be said to be a burden.

When you are strong enough personally,

you alone,

It's a family! "

"Yes, I see."

Darius saluted Mrs. Fisher, and then walked towards home.

Mrs. Fisher stood there for a long time. She really wanted to see the moon tonight, but because of the bad weather tonight, the moon was hidden in the dark clouds and could not be seen.

"Hey... It's rare to have a reason to go out. You don't even show me the moon. What a bully."

...

A middle-aged man is sitting by the beach, busy with the barbecue in his hand. It can be seen that his craftsmanship is a little rusty, but his attitude is extremely serious and meticulous.

Beside him, stood a woman in a long black dress, looking dignified and luxurious;

If Pu'er was here, she should be able to recognize her immediately - Siti.

And often when Pu'er mentions her, they will give her a prefix nickname in accordance with the habit of "pirates" - Siti the Faceless.

It means, this woman is so shameless!

More than a hundred years ago, she had a conflict with Pu'er, which made Pu'er suffer a lot.

More than a hundred years later, in order to vent his anger on Pu'er, Diss hung her on the cross on the top of the church with his own hands in front of many Kosmos priests who rounded him up, and let her blow the wind for a while.

As a woman, it is only natural for her to find a man at home to vent her anger when she suffers outside.

In the chasing game between Pu'er and Siti, Siti also called people from the Cult of Kosmos to help block her, otherwise Pu'er might not be caught by her.

Therefore, Pu'er has always taken it as a matter of course for him to find someone to succeed him!

After all, she was the one who found someone out of shame, and the person from her side was the junior Diss whom Pu'er had watched and raised since she was a child.

In short, in Pu'er's narration with Karen sometimes, anyway, that woman Siti is very shameless!

"I'm sorry, Siti, my grilling skills have regressed too much. I used to be very confident in my skills."

"Luohan, don't say that. The smell of your barbecue has already attracted the attention of the dog's nose, and it even chased here drooling."

The middle-aged man Luo Han turned his head and looked behind him.

There, stood Foden's figure.

"Our whipkeeper is really upbeat. Why, come here on purpose to have a barbecue?"

Foden saluted Rohan and Siti in turn. Although he was a high-ranking whipman, the identities of these two in the divine religion could no longer be measured by their positions.

"Greetings to Elder Rohan, and Elder Siti."

Siti didn't have a good impression of Foden, she turned sideways and ignored him, she did have the right to give the whipman a slap in the face.

Foden took out an official letter and said: "Originally, I wanted to send someone to deliver it to the temple, but when I learned that the two elders had left the temple, I had to come over in person and deliver the official letter."

Xi Di snorted coldly, and said: "It seems that we really can't hide our whereabouts from you, the whip bearer."

"Protecting the safety of the elders is the responsibility of the Whip of Order. I will put the official letter here. Please take the time to read it."

Foden put the official letter on a small luggage pile, and then he noticed a silver mask on the luggage pile.

Because the clear aura of the formation was coming from the silver mask, as if being called.

"If you don't disturb the two elders Yaxing, I will take my leave first."

Rohan lifted a squid, threw it backwards, and was caught by Foden.

"Come here, let's eat a bunch."

"Thank you, elder."

Foden dissipated from the spot while eating the squid.

Siti looked at the blue sea ahead and sneered:

"I never thought that one day, when we came out of the temple and wanted to take a breath, there would be a dog that could follow directly.

Rohan, times seem to have really changed.

But blame Rasma that guy for stepping down so quickly and so thoroughly that we lost time that could have been prepared and arranged.

well,

This great priest really wanted to raise the temple like a pigsty. "

Luo Han said with a smile: "Rasma resigned so quickly, do you really think it was an accident? Why did he give us the time to prepare? I think he did it on purpose."

"Is the incident on Minke Street also intentional?"

"Without Mink Street, Rasma would have found other streets and caught us all off guard and had a quick transition of power.

It is said that Rathma is old-fashioned, but I have never believed it. A child raised by a prostitute must be full of rebellion in his bones. "

"So, did he hide on Mink Street on purpose?"

"The most realistic lie is to intercept part of the truth. The most convincing accident is to encounter some coincidences deliberately.

However, it's meaningless to say these things. We can't go to Minke Street to ask Rasma for clarification.

He is there, covering up all information investigations, just to tell us, don't bother him, hehe, I can't imagine that the great priest who dared not even sit down in front of you is so resolute and strong.

Oh, by the way, everything on Minke Street, even the collective divination of the best fortune tellers in the church, couldn't penetrate in the slightest. Although that one fell asleep, the quilt covered was really a bit big. "

"He said he wanted his family, that he could live in security," Siti said.

"Then satisfy him. His request is not too much. It will only be a few decades at most. For us, it is not too long. I will never look down on people with a temper, as long as he has the ability Let me put up with his temper.

Obviously, our 'Elder Diss', he has, hehehe. "

"It's a pity that he didn't enter the temple."

"Don't you hate him, Siti, I thought you would hate him very much."

"If you are humiliated by a person who can condense three fragments of godhood, then you will be humiliated. What's the point of hate? If you can't compare with fists, and you don't dare to tear your face, you can only bear it."

"Well, your temper is indeed much better than before."

"how about yours?"

"I, I have no temper at all."

Luo Han stretched out his hand, and the silver mask behind him floated up and flew in front of him.

"It's calling you, no, someone is calling you through another mask, but I remember you, you have no heirs, and you haven't left any inheritance outside."

"Yes, that's right, but I have friends. There are a total of three masks like this. They are life and death friends who explored, traveled, and did tasks together when they were young. They are all excellent people.

You are not surprised, I have been in the temple for many years. It can be said that the time I have lived in the temple is much longer than the time I have not entered the temple.

However, the clearest memory in my mind is before I entered the temple.

The time when I was with my friends back then seems to have happened yesterday, alas. "

"Only you entered the temple, right?"

"Well, one of them died in an accident when he reached middle age. The other 'Natun' had hoped to condense fragments of godhood behind me.

He is not easy, really, he is very difficult.

In order to successfully condense the godhead fragments, he tried every means to prolong his life and pursue the slightest possibility. I, who had already entered the temple at that time, also helped him a lot through my relationship.

He was lucky, because before his lifespan was completely exhausted, he finally saw the dawn of condensing the fragments of godhead. If the condensed fragments of godhead were successfully brought in by the gate of the temple, he would be blessed with a huge extra lifespan. The hard work and perseverance are meaningful.

But he was unlucky again. On the eve of dawn, an accident happened to him. "

Siti asked: "Failed to condense successfully?"

"It was an accident." Luo Han's eyes revealed a trace of remembrance and helplessness, "I haven't found out yet what the cause of that accident was. In short, he died."

"Did it fail?"

"I don't know. But I remember that when he had an accident, the gate of the temple seemed to tremble, as if he was about to receive him."

"Do you doubt that he actually succeeded?"

"Can't be sure, either, it's a failure. Or, it's a success.

But he died.

I only saw his body, not the fragments of the godhead.

If he succeeds, but still dies... Hehe, who can kill him, and kill him almost silently.

I can only think that he failed in the end.

Otherwise, I can only accept another fact, that is, he was killed after he successfully condensed, and the fragments of his godhead were also taken away.

Not only can I not accept this fact, I believe that you, including the temple, cannot accept this fact. "

"Yeah, that was scary."

"There are three sets of this silver mask. Back then, there were three of us, one for each of us. The middle-aged man died unexpectedly and had no heirs. I took his mask."

"Then is the descendant of the person who failed to cohere now, calling you through the mask left by his ancestor?"

"Actually not. The mask they used to summon me belonged to the middle-aged deceased. I gave it to them. The mask of their ancestors... I couldn't find it."

"did not find……"

"Maybe he hid somewhere, but he left too suddenly, so I didn't have time to tell posterity. I can only think about it this way."

"Yes, that's all I can think of."

"Do you want to read that official letter? I'll help you read it. I think it must be the owner's intention that the dog brought it here himself."

"You don't need to watch it, I already know what it means. Did you watch the broadcast of the trial that day?"

"I just finished my duty, so I went out with you to relax, do you think I have seen it?"

"I read it, hehe, when I saw that surname, I read it. Nadun, the surname of my friend."

"But I've heard some, and it seems interesting."

"Yes, he can take the position of bishop. During the competition, I spread a word. As a descendant of a former friend, he should be taken care of, and he should be taken care of."

"What about this time?"

"Our high priest sent that dog over to warn me not to reach out again in this matter."

"What do you mean by yourself?"

"It's all like this, what am I still stretching out my hand for, a group of unsatisfactory guys, making me unable to confront their ancestors at all, will make me even more angry.

Besides, the high priest has been teasing the temple on purpose, just to wait for the reaction of us old antiques.

Compared with the reform of the lower part, he hopes to operate on the upper part.

However, he is different from Rathmah, he is not Rathmah, we can bully a child raised by a prostitute, but we cannot bully him, and we dare not bully him! "

"Is he really the... successor of Lord Tiranus?"

Tiranus, the founder of the Cult of Kosmos, wrote Symmetra himself, and single-handedly built the Kosmos system that continues to this day.

If there is any branch of God that has an absolutely transcendent and special status in the Cult of Kosmos, it must be Lord Tiranus.

Denying him is tantamount to denying the Cult of Order itself.

Inheritors are not uncommon in the religion, and there are not many inheritors in the world, but the inheritor of Lord Tiranus is definitely the most special one.

"No one knows, divination can't produce results, deduction can't make sense, the oracle is vague, and those higher-level elders, protectors, maintainers, guardians, etc., can't give an accurate answer.

He might be, but it's also possible...not.

But who can... who dares to really tear faces with him.

If he really is, the result of tearing his face is that everyone in the Temple of Order needs to kneel at his feet to re-state his loyalty to the Cult of Order!

Hehehe, hehehe.

Forget it, just treat him like that, okay? "

Luo Han reached out and pressed the silver mask. The silver mask was instantly frozen, blocking all calls.

"I follow the will of our high priest, and I will not sing against him. My descendants are rotten, and my friend will not blame me for not taking action. He will be the first to persuade me not to treat these scum again. If you look at it more, you will find it dirty and shameful."

"In your heart, you still feel uncomfortable, otherwise you wouldn't come out to fish and barbecue."

"Because this is the favorite activity of the three of us, a difficult task to complete, the three of us, fishing and catching fish together, then barbecue, and pair it with some wine, um, not too much wine.

Fatigue, fear, these things are all gone. "

"Now, do you still feel this way?"

"I can't find it, I can't find it at all. So, now I understand why so many powerful gods in the records pursue the research of time taboos.

The more I live in the future, in fact, the more I want to go back to the past. "

...

"master."

The old butler brought three maids.

"Um."

Dolph responded.

The old housekeeper understood, and silently exited the basement.

The three maids stood respectfully in front of Dolfo.

Dolfo stretched out his hand, and three strands of black mist instantly engulfed them all. They began to struggle and scream instinctively, but neither their bodies nor their voices could break through the obstruction of the black mist.

Watching their struggles, Dolfo's restless and anxious heart finally got some kind of release and comfort.

Eventually, the black mist dissipated, and three corpses appeared there.

Immediately, Dolfo led the three shiny beads into his hands, and put them into his mouth one by one like eating jelly beans.

No need to chew, it melts in your mouth.

Although they are three ordinary people, smoking them will not bring any specific changes to him, but this process, this action, can bring him peace of mind.

Children only imitate their elders.

Viccole's aptitude was so poor that Dolfo found it unbelievable, so in order to pave the way for him, he personally taught Viccole to use this method to indoctrinate himself.

It's a pity that my grandson... Heh, my son finally ended up like this.

However, now is not the time to worry about him. What I have to consider now is to protect my family.

So, I hope that you, the great one, can answer my call.

With a wave of his palm, Dolfo moved the three corpses outside, and he himself rearranged his clothes. Having received the supply of soul, his complexion has now become a little ruddy and normal.

It was like taking a bath and changing clothes. Dolfo hoped that that great being could see himself in his best state.

After confirming that the packing was complete, Dolfo knelt down and began to chant. After the mask in front of him floated up, it began to revolve around him.

"Great you, please listen to the call from the Naton family..."

"Great you, please save the Nadun family who are in trouble..."

"Great you, please give me another chance for the Naton family..."

...

In the restaurant box, Karen, who was drinking ice water and chatting with Neo, suddenly felt that the silver ring on his fingertip was a little hot, which had never happened before.

"What's wrong~~~~~~"

Neo, who just took a puff of a cigarette, asked in a trembling voice.

"The ring is hot."

"Mask ring?" Neo breathed a sigh of relief and finally returned to normal.

"The mask my grandfather left me is also integrated into this ring."

"Oh no, your wording is inappropriate. It should be the silver mask left by your grandfather that occupies this ring."

"It will be all right."

"Anything is possible. After wearing the mask your grandfather left for you, it will allow you to impersonate the elder of the temple directly. The mask made by Lemar is excellent, but it is not to this level."

"Can we discuss something useful?"

"Oh, yes, why is it hot?" Neo put his face in front of Karen's ring, and then sniffed, "I sense the breath of the formation, but it's not obvious, maybe I feel wrong."

Karen's mind moved, and the silver mask appeared and floated up.

Neo immediately said: "It's obvious now, the atmosphere of the communication formation, the very advanced communication formation, the setting is really ingenious."

"In other words, someone is calling me?"

"Well, it should be."

"But who could it be?"

"Maybe it's your grandfather, maybe, your grandfather is already awake?"

"If my grandpa wakes up, will you lie there instead of my grandpa?"

"If it can have the same deterrent effect, I am really willing to go to sleep instead, so that I feel very fulfilled when I dream."

"It can't be my grandfather."

"Are you so sure?"

"Because Uncle Mason has my funeral home number."

"Oh, by the way, it's true that technological advancement is good. It's more convenient to make a phone call than to set up a communication circle, but who is calling you, or now. That, can you answer it?"

"You'll know when you pick it up." Karen pursed his lips. He was a little nervous. Compared with the pile of books that Mr. Hoffin left for him, the things that grandpa left for him were actually not many, but each of them was worth reading. Full of mystery.

Of course, it may be just a dispensable toy for Diss, but for Karen now, it is like a child playing with a grenade.

"Take it, what are you afraid of, anyway, you are wearing a mask." Neo urged.

In the face of such a fun and exciting thing, how could Neo make the opposite choice.

Karen took a deep breath and nodded. In fact, he was not hesitating whether to accept it or not, but to calm down his emotions, because he must accept it.

"Or, can I pick it up for you?" Neo suggested, "if you're nervous."

"Don't worry, what will happen after you wear this mask?"

"Nonsense, of course! Can't you hear me, I'm talking ironic! My surname is not Inmeles, what I mean is, hurry up!"

"Don't make noise."

Neo immediately shut up and stopped making a sound, but his eyes continued to urge Karen.

Karen grabbed the silver mask in front of him, took a deep breath, exhaled it slowly, and slowly put it on his face.

next moment,

Karen's consciousness felt drawn into a deep vortex, and as the consciousness deepened, the vortex began to shrink rapidly.

In the end, Karen found that his "sight" became a little dim, as if his consciousness was drawn into a new and strange environment;

Soon, he saw an old man kneeling and praying to him. When the old man raised his head, Karen recognized him—Bishop Dolfo Naton!

What exactly is going on?

Bishop Dolfo was praying and calling, but it turned out that he was the one who answered his call?

Karen suddenly remembered that both Vicole and Trissen had said that his family was related to a great being, and Darius had also said that his father was trying to summon a temple elder who had friendship with the ancestors of the family. .

so,

Why wasn't the elder of the temple summoned, but he himself was summoned?

What kind of secrets are hidden in this silver mask that grandpa left for himself?

No,

Now is not the time to think about these things, focus on the present first!

That is to say,

Now Bishop Dorfo... is asking himself for help?

Ah,

hehe,

This damned absurd world.

...

Dolfo raised his head and saw a huge bright red ball of light appearing in the center of the formation, with strands of golden stripes branded on it.

Yes, it is exactly the same as the response I received when I was competing for the position of bishop, the same breath, the same dignity, and the same inviolable sanctity!

The elder of the temple, a great existence, finally answered his call!

Dolfo wept with joy, and the tears really dripped out. He said sincerely from the bottom of his heart:

"Thank you for answering my call, thank you for not giving up on the Naton family, thank you for your kindness and generosity, thank you for your kindness, the Naton family is saved, please save the Naton family, please Save the Naton family!"

At this time, Dolfo heard an icy voice coming from the gilded red light ball:

"You have let me down too much."

"Yes, we are not up to date, we are shameless, we are too useless and too stupid. I beg you, give us another chance, give the Nadun family another chance, they are going to completely destroy the Nadun family Tear it up, so that our Dun family will never be able to stand up again.

Please, give the Natons another chance, please. "

Dolfo knew very well in his heart that since the great existence responded to his call, it meant that he would take action on this matter.

The voice inside the gilded light sphere sounded again:

"the last time."

"Yes yes yes, the last time, the last time! Please believe that after this lesson, the Nadun family will reorganize and will not worry about you, embarrass you, let you down, I promise!"

"I'll run this from above..."

"Then what about me, what do you need me to do with you, as long as I can save the family, I am willing to do anything, no, your will is the mission that I will do at all costs!"

"You need to make things bigger so that I can operate from above. It is no longer a conflict between the Whip of Order and the Regional Management Office, but a conflict between the High Priest and other factions.

This is the only way to save the Naton family. "

"What exactly do I need to do, please tell me, I will definitely do it to the death!"

As long as the family can be preserved, Dolfo will not hesitate to enter the vortex of political struggle at the level of the high priest.

Because at this time, the Nadun family has nothing to lose. He knows very well that his second son is right, and the whip of order will definitely attack him next time, and the district management office has obviously planned to to abandon him.

After waiting for a while, Bishop Dolfo, who had not heard the specific order for a long time, raised his head cautiously and secretly, and found that the huge gilded light ball was still behind him. He immediately calmed down and lowered his head again, with an extremely pious and excited expression.

"To the whole teaching, publish your suicide note."
