Chapter 57 The Hanged Man

"Is this...dead?"

Seeing the golden toad statue on the altar that had lost its true color of gold and turned as dark as a clay statue, the expectant people in the secret room couldn't help but be surprised.

"How is that possible?!"

One of the middle-aged men with blond hair was the most excited. He looked at the cracked toad statue and said with disbelief:

"I've obviously investigated it! Apart from having a very precise business vision, Old Charles is a completely ordinary person. How could he possibly be able to block the Holy Spirit of the Scales of Gold? Something must have happened over there that we don't know about!"

"There are so many things you don't know!"

Looking at the broken statue on the altar with great distress, an old man with a rose embroidered on his chest stood up and shouted at the middle-aged man with angrily eyes:

"Thomas! We made an agreement at the beginning. As long as we cooperate with you to overthrow Charles Department Store, the Lane family will join the York family to join the shares and make our Masseny family's department store bigger.

As a result, the shares of Rose Department Store are given to you! We invested the money of the water power company! We also worked on digging a dam across the Ministry of Highways! But Rose Department Store not only failed to grow, but was about to be squeezed out! "

As if saying this was not enough to relieve his anger, I saw the old man of the Masseni family banging the table vigorously, and yelling at the blond middle-aged man with all his demeanor:

"You said that Old Charles' promotion kidnapped too many people, and you had no good solution except to use some abnormal means to solve it.

OK! Then use abnormal means, I even invited the Holy Spirit of the Scale Gold Sect for you! Is this method abnormal enough?

You bastard, don't you mean that as long as the Holy Spirit descends and causes mass deaths, you can find an excuse to ask the municipal government to order an order to forcibly stop the promotion of Charles Department Store on the grounds of safety, and cut off its last breath...

But the result? Can you tell me the result? As a result, Lord Holy Spirit died! ! How do you want me to explain to the Scales and Metal Cult? What you **** is simply..."

"Enough!"

Seeing that the words of the old man in rich clothes were becoming more and more rude, the blond middle-aged man's expression also darkened, and he asked with an extremely ugly expression:

"I'm a human! I'm not an omniscient god! How could I predict such a small probability thing?

Also, I didn’t want your Masseni family to get involved at the beginning, you had to find it yourself! Even the Holy Spirit of the Scale Gold Sect was invited by you yourself!

And have you forgotten? How many favors did you ask of us in order to invite that toad? As a result, he was killed without even making a sound! I think your Scale-Metal Cult is basically..."

"You two, stop it."

Just when the conflict between the two sides was about to break out, a cold and hard tone full of "ice ballast" sounded, curbing the situation that was about to escalate.

"Sir Thomas."

After calling the blond middle-aged man's name, the black-robed man on the throne turned around, stared at him seriously and said:

"Although the Scale Gold Sect is not a great sect, there is a true **** behind it. If you don't want to be assassinated by them endlessly, you'd better pay attention to your words. In addition..."

After turning his head to look at the old man in rich clothes with murderous eyes, the man in black robe continued to speak in a cold voice that made people shiver, without any emotion:

"The Holy Spirit you invited was not killed by anyone, but encountered some incomprehensible situation that caused it to doubt the ideas it had always believed in in the past, so it went to destruction."

After hearing the judgment of the man in black robe, the representative of the York family, who had remained silent, couldn't help but asked softly in surprise:

"Just because there was suspicion... it died?"

"It's not just doubt, but I can't convince myself anymore... But it's not impossible for you to understand it this way.

As the Holy Spirit born from beliefs and concepts, their existence itself is an aggregation of beliefs and rules. When it begins to doubt what it firmly believes in, it is equivalent to being deprived of the meaning of existence, and will naturally move toward death uncontrollably. "

When he said this, the man in black robe shook his head and concluded indifferently:

"Only extremes will be remembered, only paranoia can dare to move forward, and only madness can understand greatness."

"For you humans, this extreme paranoia about ideas may be a bit difficult to accept, but this paranoia is precisely the source of the power of the Holy Spirits, and it is also their most fatal weakness. If you still can't understand, just They are imagined as hanging men who firmly believe that the sky is below and the earth is above, so they can walk freely in the sky.

And once they begin to doubt the ideas they believed in in the past, it is equivalent to destroying the rationality of establishing a foothold in the sky, and they can only dance and fall from the sky, falling to death on the ground... Do you understand? "

"I probably understand a little bit..."

The York family members frowned and thought for a moment, then asked:

"So... what exactly happened to the Holy Spirit of the Scales of Gold Sect? Can you guess it?"

"You can almost guess it."

The man in black robe narrowed his eyes when he heard this and said expressionlessly:

"It might not be so easy to guess in other places, but since we are in the royal capital...the only person who can completely destroy the idea of ​​a Holy Spirit is that one person."

…

"Ah sneeze!!"

Strange...can I still sneeze?

After rubbing his suddenly itchy nose in surprise, the red-haired director in the office sat up straight and opened the file in his hand with a curious look on his face.

[Cleaning Report on the Pentecost Incident of the Holy Spirit of the Scale Gold Sect]

[Event Rating: Disaster Level]

[Event status: cleared]

[Incident Manager: Leon Lane]

[Use Abnormal Objects: Devil's Diagonal, Witch's Broom]

[Casualties: 1 person slightly injured]

【…】

at the same time…

"I'm sorry! I'm really, really sorry!!"

Looking at Leon, who was wrapped in a thick bandage on the hospital bed and had a neck brace under his neck, the baby-faced girl in a professional skirt couldn't help but bow to the ground, crying and apologizing with tears in her eyes:

"When I ordered that money box, if I had been more careful during the acceptance inspection and had the box reinforced, you wouldn't have been injured by the gold wheel that fell in the box! Oh... it's all my fault... "

Well...my injury is really not your fault...

Looking at the baby-faced girl in front of him who was crying very sadly and with swollen eyes, and Leon who had his cervical vertebra and ribs injured by the golden wheel on the hospital bed, he didn't know what to say for a moment.

If I remember correctly, the previous incident at the Red Brick Road Hospital was modified by the Evil God Brain into a gas pipeline explosion, and you were blamed for improper inspection and acceptance. You were the one who came to apologize in tears.

And this time, the incident of the advent of the Holy Spirit was modified into an accident in which the golden wheel in the cash box collapsed, injuring myself as I passed by. You actually took the blame and came to me crying to apologize.

After taking a look at the baby-faced girl in front of him who was crying quite sadly, Leon couldn't help but smacked his lips with a complicated expression.

Girl...are you a little unlucky?
