13 Mink Street

Leon stared at the cigarette butts in the ashtray that were gradually extinguished with light pressing. He obviously didn't take another puff of cigarettes, but the tip of his nose and eye sockets began to sore again.

Before his death, Woflon paid the most attention to the psychological construction of his grandson.

He doesn't want his grandson to feel guilty, and he doesn't want him to bear too much; Leon also understands his grandfather's heart, and he takes the initiative to continue to face the world with a smile.

It's just that his smile at this time is compared with the old boy brother in the past, it's like a painting with all the colors removed, you can see that he is smiling, well, he is indeed just smiling.

Therefore, after Alfred told him the "truth", he could also smile when facing Erlanga.

Now, he often feels that his life is like an actor. He lives, stands on the stage, and performs for his family in heaven.

However, the strength of all of these, accompanied by this cigarette, and the words "put it out" by his minister, instantly disintegrated.

Leon opened his mouth, then took a deep breath, and wiped his face twice vigorously with his palm.

"Minister, I'm sorry, I was a little hard to accept for a while, no, it's not hard to accept, but I didn't expect you to say these things to me after you let me come over, I..."

"A little sudden?"

"Ah, um, yes, it was so sudden that I was completely unprepared."

"I feel the same way."

Karen reached out to grab the second mango.

Seeing this, Leon took the initiative to reach out to help pick it up, quickly peeled it off, and placed it on the dinner plate in front of Karen.

Karen glanced at Leon's hand, but still didn't move the mango.

"Actually, I originally wanted to delay this matter, thinking that after the higher-ups made up their minds and issued an order, I would make my own choice based on the result of the order. I also thought I would think about it for a long time, but when After I learned that the above gave up the hands-on plan, I realized that I already had the answer in my heart.

Simple, calm, natural, without hesitation at all. "

"Thank you, Minister, but I don't want to put you in an embarrassing situation again because of my grandpa. This is not what I want to see, nor is it what my grandpa wants to see. You can say this to me, I'm already very moved, or we can wait for a better opportunity later..."

"You are wrong, your grandfather was really good to me when he was alive, I have always been very grateful that he didn't do anything to me because of the rumors outside when he could easily crush me to death.

In addition, Grandpa Ni did several things for me before he died, each of which is worthy of my remembrance of his affection and his kindness.

But I made this decision, not for you, not for your grandfather, not for personal feelings..."

Karen silently took out a copy of the "Regulations of Order" from his robe pocket and placed it on the table.

"According to the Order Ordinance, they deserve to die."

Rubbing lightly on the cover with her fingertips, Karen smiled and continued: "I have found the most reasonable basis to support my next behavior. As for whether this behavior is in line with my personal emotional position, that is up to you." Coincidentally, right?"

"Yes...Minister."

"Go ahead and do your thing. Your next task is to play your current role well and manage the security affairs here instead of me as before. When and how to make a move, don't ask me. I'm afraid your emotions will adverse effect on operations."

Leon nodded vigorously and said, "Please rest assured."

"Yeah." Karen waved his hand.

Leon stood up and walked towards the banquet crowd.

In the distance, Alfred, who was standing at the door, kept staring at his young master's situation. After seeing Leon get up and leave, Alfred took out his small notebook and drew two emphatically on Leon's name. lock up.

Although the new path of faith ultimately needs to rely on its light to inspire the world to follow, this does not affect the initial stage of relying on the personal charm of the leader to construct a basic framework.

The two do not conflict.

Therefore, the original inner circle believers, loyalty, always come first.

At this time, Elanga walked to Karen's table and said to Karen, "Minister Karen, can I sit here?"

"Of course." Karen nodded with a smile, and then brought the mango that Leon had peeled for himself with the hands that wiped his nose and tears before and brought it to Elanga, "Try it, I like the taste very much."

"Oh, yes, then thank you." Elanga picked up the spoon, scooped up a mouthful and put it in his mouth, "Mmm, it's delicious."

"If you like, you can ask the front desk to deliver it in the hotel room."

"Okay, thank you for your reminder, I just saw you talking about work with your subordinates here?"

"Yes."

"Your subordinate is the grandson of the former chief bishop of the region. Bishop Boqier introduced it to me just now. I feel sad for his family's experience."

"He needs no mercy, he's strong."

"Of course, believers in Order are very strong and cannot be defeated by any storm. This is why the Order of God is so strong today."

Karen shook his head and said, "An elder once told me why the Cult of Kosmos has the current status in the church circle."

"So, how did your elder explain it?"

Karen raised his hand, made a fist slightly, and replied, "Big fist."

Elanga froze for a moment: "This..."

"And not only is the fist big, but also adhere to a principle, that is, whoever dares to violate the order, just punch...kill him."

"Minister Karen, do you think so too?"

"I have been to many places, and I have been to many sacred places of the Religion, and I have naturally met many people. I rarely see those people's awe of the Religion of Order stemming from their identification with the teachings of Order. Part of it is the fear of being punished by the Cult of Kosmos if you dare to disobey the will of Order."

"Of course, the great Cult of Kosmos cannot be violated!" Elanga raised his glass, "Come on, let's have a toast."

Karen didn't raise her glass beside her,

Instead, he pointed at Elanga,

Smiled:

"You said it yourself."

Elanga: "..."

He came here to test himself, and Karen knew that.

It's just that Karen doesn't bother to hide it, because unless the meeting address is changed, the security of the meeting is still in his own hands, so Karen can be calm.

Whether or not to kill them is not a question of whether it can be done, but a question of whether they are willing to do it.

If he didn't care about the impact and consequences at all, Karen could even order dozens of Whip of Order squads to rush into the hotel and kill them all in the name of "worshiping the evil god".

So Karen didn't mind playing with them a bit, like a guinea pig with one hand, before this final answer was revealed.

The banquet speech began. Karen, who had already eaten and drank enough, did not stay here to continue listening to any beautiful visions and false blessings. Instead, he nodded to Alfred and got up and left the banquet hall. Finally, he walked out of the banquet hall. Hotel Ankara.

The snow has stopped and the temperature has dropped.

Karen put his hands into the pockets of the divine robe, and let out a breath on purpose, forming a white mist.

A taxi stopped just in time, and a young priest came down from it. The priest glanced at Karen. Because it was dark and Karen was sideways, he couldn't recognize him, so he carried himself file package and walked into the hotel.

Seeing this, Karen simply walked to the taxi, opened the door, and got in.

"Sir, where are you going?"

"Do you know the way to the cemetery in Lanqiao Community?"

"Of course, the road is a bit far away. You know the road conditions now. It may take some time."

"No hurry, drive slowly."

"Okay, sir. By the way, sir, is this hotel any different?"

"What?"

"I mean, I pull passengers here occasionally, but sometimes when I come with an empty car, I can't find the hotel."

"Probably because I'm not in the mood to look at the scenery when the empty car comes."

"Haha, no, I came here several times just to find this hotel, but I couldn't find it. I also told my cousin about it. He is a writer. He told me about it. Wrote the story of this hotel as a prototype."

"Is it published?"

"It was only serialized in the newspaper, but it seemed that the response was not good and it was cut off."

"Pity."

"Yes, it's a pity, what a mysterious place."

"Aren't you afraid, Mr. Driver?"

"Afraid? Oh no, I like the job of being pulled here, because the passengers who go to this hotel always give a lot of tips, at least they won't let me give change, haha.

In this world, even a demon can make people rush towards it crazily as long as it holds a lot of Rael in its hand. "

Karen was noncommittal.

Halfway through the car, a woman on the side of the road took a taxi. The driver glanced at Karen in the rearview mirror, and then stopped the car:

"Hi ma'am, where are you going?"

"Second Queen's Road."

"Get in the car, ma'am, you'll be on the way." Then, the driver observed Karen's reaction through the rearview mirror.

The lady opened the car door and saw that there was already a person sitting in the back seat, she hesitated for a while and sat in.

Karen closed his eyes. He didn't object to the driver's behavior of soliciting passengers halfway, and he wasn't in a hurry anyway.

However, Karen could smell the disinfectant on the woman's body, and the flat shoes she was wearing at this time should be nurses in the hospital.

"Ma'am, do you want to go home?" The driver took the initiative to brighten the atmosphere.

"If my home is there, do you think I need to come out and work?"

"That's not what it says. Some people live to live, and some people live to live."

"What you said is really reasonable. There is such an employee in my department. Her husband is the deputy chief of the police station in our district. She comes to work because she feels bored at home."

"I didn't say that, it was my cousin who is a writer!"

"Oh, that's amazing."

"Yes, I'm proud of him."

The car stopped on Queen's Road, the woman gave the money and got out of the car.

Immediately, the taxi continued driving and finally arrived at the gate of the cemetery.

"45 raels, my lord sir."

Karen handed over a 50 real ticket, opened the door and got out of the car.

"Hi, sir, this is 5 reals for you." The driver grabbed a small handful of coins and handed them to Karen through the car window.

Karen took the coin and asked, "Isn't there no change?"

"It's different this time, thank you for your understanding, haha, good night."

"Good night."

Karen walked to the gate of the cemetery. The gate was closed, but not locked. The administrator's cabin where the old Saman lived has now changed to a new owner, but he is obviously not very responsible for his work.

After reaching out to push the door open, Karen walked in.

As soon as he entered, Karen had a premonition. He came to Miss Eliza's tombstone, and sure enough, he saw a man sitting leaning on the tombstone.

The man held a wine bottle in his right hand and a cigarette in his left hand, and said very clichéd words:

"Look at you, my life without you is just so sloppy, how can I live without you..."

Few people can be consistent in front of others, and most of them will behave naively in front of their closest people.

Even Karen, with Eunice, exhibits an indulgence that is invisible on the outside.

Neo is no exception.

It's just that they used to restrain each other, just like when Karen came here before and saw Neo was there, Neo would often stand quietly in front of the tombstone, silent, silent, silent again...

Now, he must have noticed that he was coming, but he didn't bother to get up and pretend to be silent.

"Oh, Eliza, look, here comes our little Minister Karen."

Neo looked at Karen drunkenly.

Karen asked, "Are you not injured?"

"For me, it's okay. The injuries and overdrafts on my body are not serious, but I feel a little uncomfortable in my head. After the fight, I found an island and reef and fell into a coma for a long time. I just came here not long ago."

"coma?"

"In my mind, they were arguing in a meeting, and I didn't bother to listen. I simply asked for leave and let them go to the quarrel by themselves. They would also get tired after arguing. No, it's much quieter now, hehe."

"Will there be side effects?"

"Is this a polite question?"

"Um."

"It's just that little thing, the big deal is getting lost."

"Um."

"Why are you here, in a bad mood?"

"Why don't you guess that I came here specially to find you?"

"Oh, I believe you will go back to Allen Manor to find your fiancée, and you won't come to me specially for nothing. Tell me, what happened, and you look a little disappointed."

"The wind has changed direction from above."

"Where's the wind direction for those people in the desert?"

"Um."

"The foreshadowing was done in vain?"

"should be."

"Hehe..." Neo stretched his waist, stroking the tombstone with his palm, "I think this Cult of Kosmos will follow the bright old path sooner or later."

Karen avoided the subject.

Neo continued: "Blindly pursuing the so-called strength of oneself is getting farther and farther away from the original intention. It is hard to say whether it is really strong or weak."

Karen took out a cigarette case from his pocket, took out a cigarette, and tapped on the case.

Neo pointed to Karen: "You can understand."

"I think the method can change according to the changes at the time."

"Oh, yes, after all, now that the Christians of Order have a great career, it should be like this, and the light has died, and there is actually nothing left of the light except for the original intention.

But this matter, I am talking about the people in the desert. "

"The meeting is still going on for several days."

"Then what?"

"I will not let them leave Yorktown alive."

"I knew it." Neo took a puff of cigarette and exhaled a smoke ring, "You can take care of things that the Cult of Kosmos doesn't want to take care of; you can kill people that the Cult of Kosmos doesn't want to kill."

Karen took out the lighter.

Neo stood up and patted the weeds on his clothes: "You are qualified to do such a thing, as the outside world has always said about us... oh no, it's not a legend anymore, we witnessed the undead of the great priest with our own eyes Summons can use Tiranus's sealed curse.

In terms of interpreting the "Regulations of Order" and doing things in the name of Order, you are more legal and legitimate than the Cult of Order.

For a god religion, can the biggest overall situation be bigger than the god of order?

Well, I know you are disgusted by others saying that you are the god of order. I am here to comfort you, hahaha, don’t feel self-willed, just do what you have to do, and do what you want. "

"I don't need consolation," Karen said.

"Huh? I thought you came to me specifically for this. You know, I'm the best at this."

Karen shook her head and asked, "Why do you think I did this?"

"For Walfren, he has been very kind to you."

"All right."

Karen walked to the other side with the cigarette and lighter, and Neo followed behind him.

Eventually, Karen stopped at a gravestone with Dincombe's picture on it.

"It looks familiar." Neo took a closer look, and quickly remembered, "An employee under the Pavaro Tribunal, I saw it when I went to your place before."

"Well, yes, he died that night, killed by an assassin, and his body was flattened like a piece of paper. When I went back to the funeral home, he would be with Peak at night Alternate vigils and their purring will be heard."

Karen bent down, stuck the cigarette in front of the tombstone, and lit it.

"Do you have a good relationship with him?" Neo asked after a pause, "Are you extremely saddened by his death?"

"My relationship with him is average. His death made me feel uncomfortable for a while, but not for too long."

"Oh, you are so sincere." Neo pursed his lips, and then his eyes suddenly changed, "Oh, I almost forgot."

"Yeah, you all think that I made this choice to avenge Walforon, and Leon thinks so too. But you all ignore one thing, that is, since this assassin was sent by them Yes, that is to say, this group of people almost killed my family."

"Ah, yes, the matter suddenly became very serious and legitimate." Neo grabbed a handful of snow and rubbed his hands, "Tsk, all of a sudden my mind is clear."

Karen straightened up, looked at the tombstone, and said calmly:

"Yeah, just based on this, they deserve to die."
