Chapter 62: The Night of the Massacre
When did the robot cat die? Still burned to ashes? Anyway, why do you show me the ashes of the old man? Xu Changqing looked at the receptionist, didn't say a word, and exerted pressure with his eyes.
Finally, the receptionist couldn't hold back and asked cautiously, "Sir...... Is there anything wrong? ”
"I don't remember my friend's name," Xu Changqing pointed to the label on the urn, "He is a little fatter, his skin is not blue at all, and he has no pockets on his stomach." ”
"You are so funny, sir," the receptionist hastened to explain, "and you don't need your real name to store the remains of your deceased relatives and friends in the convent. In order to **, a lot of people use pseudonyms. According to the results of the number, it is indeed the same name when the deposit registration procedures are carried out. ”
However, fat hackers can't be burned to ashes by you. Before the fragment of the Godhead was stripped away, his body was not burned in the fire, did not sink in water, avoided mosquitoes and flies, and was not afraid of swords and axes, which was simply a Buddha in the flesh. You little broken convent firewood stove, how can you burn his old man to ashes?
It's not interesting to say that. Since the other party dared to take a box of ashes out to fool around, he must have been killed and did not admit it. Even the receptionist in front of him was kept in the dark. Judging by his expression, he either really doesn't know, or he is a master of lies. This man is so tender that he hasn't even grown a beard, so it's more likely that he really doesn't know.
"Well, please come and talk to me. I'm just waiting in the prayer hall, and I'd like to have an explanation for that. ”
After saying this, Xu Changqing left the morgue. The receptionist was dumbfounded, standing still not knowing what to say.
However, it seems to have been released by the pigeons. He sat in the prayer hall for nearly an hour, and he didn't see the steward. Tetsuo had had enough of the garden, yelling that he was bored and wanted to climb the statue - and was promptly suppressed by Mother Uesugi. Xu Changqing looked at his watch, stood up, and found the receptionist again: "I remember, if you have any trouble, please contact the person in charge here-"
"The abbot is too busy to see you. He said that we monasteries could not be mistaken. According to the number, the box of ashes is indeed what you stored. ”
In just one hour, the reception ecology has changed greatly. He didn't even look at Xu Changqing, his words were indifferent, and he had an expression of ignorance.
"I put in the body, but you showed me the ashes?"
"There are such things. If we determine that the body is no longer suitable for preservation, we will perform a cremation ceremony. By the way, this is a list of cremation fees, so please pay at the nearest bank or convenience store in the city. ”
Xu Changqing looked at the charge bill with a price tag of 50,000 yen in his hand, and suddenly a nameless fire rushed to his heart. He felt that he should be regarded as a more cultured person, but at that moment, he was indeed a little unable to suppress his anger.
"Let's get things sorted out from the beginning," he said as calmly as he could, "and there is a body deposited in your monastery. The receipt states that it will be refrozen for one month. All fees including GST have been paid in advance. However, what I see now is a box of ashes. Your monastery not only cremated the body without consent before the expiration date, but even demanded that I pay the fee? ”
Shame remained on the receptionist's face for less than a second, and that was about all he had left of his conscience. "You either accept the ashes and pay for them," he said indifferently, "or leave." ”
"Leave? Is this the hospitality of your monastery? ”
"It's very polite to leave," the receptionist raised his head and glared at Xu Changqing, "I can also change the word, get out." ”
Anyone should be angry at this time. Unexpectedly, Xu Changqing actually smiled. "I'll be back." He whispered.
The receptionist did not raise his head. "Welcome back to St. Andrew's Abbey." His words were full of impatience.
So he went back, making Xia Cheng baffled. "Have you seen the fat man's corpse? Have you talked to them about the cemetery? ”
"Today they are not in charge," Xu Changqing replied lightly, "Go back and find a time, I'll come again." ”
The so-called "find a time" is actually that night.
In the middle of the night, the fog is deep on the mountain. St. Andrew's Abbey, located on a gentle slope, is surrounded by trees.
A grasshopper was lying on the tip of a blade of grass, and it was crying out happily. Suddenly, one foot stepped on his head, and the screaming stopped abruptly.
Soft flat leather boots, army-style dark green twill pants, black T-shirt, and a pistol in the waist. Tonight's Xu Changqing is like a sword out of the sheath. He carried the Evil Spirit Illustrated Book in the crook of his arm, and the succubus Nobuta and the banshee Kuroki had been summoned and were following closely.
"Red Dew Demon Tea," he whispered to the banshee's pseudonym, "stealth, go explore the way first." ”
The Banshee of Pain immediately disappeared in place, and only Xu Changqing could sense where she was.
It seems that the days of peace have passed too long, and there are no patrols at night in this monastery. The porter had a vigil, but only sat on a chair and dozed off. There was a banshee who reported the news, and Xu Changqing easily bypassed the night watchman. He climbed over the low wall and entered the monastery atrium from the back of the gatehouse, avoiding the surveillance cameras.
The succubus followed Xu Changqing over the wall boredly. She was lilt, fluttering across the wall and landing silently on the lawn. A long black whip danced with her. The moonlight is bright, and the whip body glows with a gloomy metallic sheen, beautiful and dangerous.
Bypass the prayer hall and go deep behind the monastery. It's a much larger area than expected. The trees are cleverly planted to deliberately divide the space.
In front of it is a long red brick building. Turning the corner, a hoarse scream suddenly sounded. The voice was all in his throat, and it sounded like a faint cough.
When I walked over, I saw that it was a strong Caucasians. He was covered in the smell of alcohol, perhaps from the urgency of peeing at night. The banshee stabbed him in the neck with a sword. The man's eyes were wide open and his expression was terrified.
Xu Changqing flipped the Evil Spirit Illustrated Book to the title page. There was no text on the page, only an anchor-shaped blood-red coat of arms. He pressed his right hand on the coat of arms, and immediately countless pale white points of light floated out of the corpse's seven orifices and threw them into the book. The Caucasian man's muscular body quickly deflated, and finally was completely drained, becoming an empty human skin.
With each soul absorbed, the power of all the evil spirits in the book increases. This is a sweet temptation that those who can't hold it will eventually go to destruction.
Don't kill indiscriminately, Xu Changqing secretly warned himself.
"Why don't we slaughter the entire monastery?" The succubus Shintian quietly bewitched Xu Changqing's ear, and his gentle breathing touched his earlobe, "Just now, I felt so comfortable......
The succubus's temptation was rejected by Xu Changqing. "Only for those who threaten," his tone was non-negotiable, "it's not my style to kill innocents. ”
"Cut ......"
Nobuta pouted, his fingers wrapped around the tip of the whip, and he looked unhappy.
"Don't worry," the banshee Kuroki said coldly, "there are definitely quite a few people who will die tonight. ”
