―――――――――――――――――――

Isayama House

"Welcome home, Sister Huangquan!"

Huang Quan, who had just opened the door of the house, saw a cheerful figure rushing into her arms.

"I'm back, Kagura!" Huang Quan hugged Kagura, and a happy smile finally appeared on his gloomy face.

"How about the person who picked up today?" Kagura asked excitedly.

"Well~ I'll know when I see it tomorrow."

"Uh~" Kagura dragged a coquettish tone dissatisfiedly, "Huangquan is stingy~"

"Okay, the other party is a quasi-priest of the same age as me, and it seems that his personality is a little simple at the moment, and the rest will be contacted by Kagura himself." As he spoke, Huang Quan stroked his long black silk hair with his hand

"Ah~ The hot water has been put away, you can take a bath at any time!" Kagura, who has long been a brother and sister to Huang Quan, said that whenever Huang Quan sits in this action, he thinks about taking a hot bath.

"It's worthy of Kagura, my sister didn't hurt you in vain...."

"Don't it~ It's so itchy..."The two started their usual fight again.

．．．．．．．．．．．．．．

The bathroom was filled with fog, and the sound of water broke the silence

The girl's long black hair was coiled behind her head, and the hot water in the bathtub washed the girl's white and delicate skin slightly. Immerse your entire body in the water, exposing only the area above your nose.

The "Thirteenth Section of the Vatican's Imperial Court" held a scoop of water in both hands, slowly lifted it to the surface of the water, and watched in a daze as the pool water in his hand slowly drew out from between his fingers. She couldn't understand why she cared about the young man she had just met for the first time.

I recalled in my heart the words of the head of Jinguji Temple and Iwabata in the countermeasure room.

"Mr. Iwabata should tell them, after all, they will work together for a long time in the future, and it won't be nice if something unpleasant happens because of this." The head of the room said to Yan Duan, and then turned to Huang Quan and the others

"Xiaozhi's situation is a bit special, I hope if there is any conflict in the future, you can be considerate."

Iwabata glanced at the head of the room helplessly, and then spoke, "Since Sakuraba has already mentioned the twelve disciples, then, do you know that the twelve disciples of the Dao are those twelve people?" ”

"Simon Peter, Andrew, Jacob, John, Philip, Bartholomew, Thomas, Matthew" recalls with all his might

"And James, the sons of Alphaeus, Simon, and Dathea, and Matthias, the last of whom took the place of Judah the traitor." Huang Quan, who added to the ride, suddenly felt something

"Do you say?"

"That's right, the thirteenth section of the Vatican's Court – Iscariot. This department is the Vatican's non-formula enforcement force, known to the world as the Vatican's shadow, the Inquisition of Heresy, the only strongest force - the Demon Annihilation Force, the professional killer of heresy impeachment, and is named after Judas, and no one knows the existence of the thirteenth section. ”

Koji Iwabata said with a bad face, as if he remembered some terrifying memory.

"Since no one knows the way, what is it?"

"I've been a mercenary for a long time." Koji Iwabata explained slowly, "In fact, rumors of this department have existed for a long time, and many people who know more or less about the European psionic community have heard of the rumors that the Vatican has a thirteenth department, but they have never been sure.

Legend has it that this department is not just a demon annihilation force, but also a duty to eradicate heretics, whether they are old people or children, as long as they are not good for the Vatican. So they are known for their cruelty and ruthlessness, and usually they are found everywhere there are chickens and dogs. The thirteenth science is named after Scarkyo in Europe, but it is a famous existence for crying children. ”

I thought back to the crisp and neat shots of the teenager when he was fighting, and then recalled that the other party said that he had been involved in the Thirteen Departments for more than 6 years. "Maybe he already has the blood of many people on his hands."

"Wouldn't it be that the Vatican has sent such a dangerous person?" Sakuraba couldn't help but loosen the tie of the loose suit.

"Is this all true?" Huang Quan really couldn't believe that the young man who was gentle and a little off the line just now had been stained with so much blood.

"Well, the Vatican does have the thirteenth section." At this time, the head of Jinguji Temple spoke, "However, as far as I know, the members of the Thirteen Sects are mainly supplemented by three sources.

First, the main grassroots members are made up of the church's fanatics.

Second, the gifted orphans adopted by the Church in various parts of the world are very malleable, so they have also become the middle and high-level combat power of the Thirteen Branches.

Third, it is the children of many noble families and exorcist families who have been excluded, or the declining families who want to gain the support of the Church and give their children to the Holy See as bargains. In short, they are a group of children who have been abandoned by their parents.

The children who were sent to the church were generally between the ages of 5 and 12, and they were born with superior talents, which, combined with the church's special training, formed a terrible fighting group. However, many demon exterminators are reluctant to let their bloodlines flow out, so there shouldn't be many such people. ”

Suddenly remembering something, the head of Jingu Temple said casually. "Although the church will not force it, many of these children who are sent to the church will have their own family names removed, and depending on the situation of Xiaozhi, maybe it is also such a member, but I don't know which family in Japan is Lu Dao?"

There was a hint of pity and pity in the words of the head of Jinguji Temple.

[Is it an existence abandoned by the family?] Thinking of this, Huang Quan poured the water in his hand on his face.

Huang Quan suddenly found that he was much happier than this teenager. Although his original family was destroyed by evil spirits, he was lucky to be adopted by the Isayama family, and although the training of the exorcist was extremely difficult, his adoptive father's care for him was real, and he could live like an ordinary person.

She never understood why parents would abandon their children so ruthlessly.

Feeling that the water temperature was already a little cold, and realizing that he had been soaking for too long, Huangquan put aside the entangled distractions [Perhaps, we are all orphans, in every sense. 】

With such a conclusion, Huang Quan reluctantly stood up from the bathtub, and the two white rabbits on his chest jumped to the surface with the action of getting up, revealing their flawless bodies

"This is your room, and your luggage will arrive tomorrow." Nikaido Kiriri opened the door.

Shi's residence is very close to the countermeasure room, only two blocks away, and the room is just a hotel-like apartment, with a spacious entrance and all the facilities inside.

"Thank you."

Without the gratitude of consciousness, Nikaido Kirichi handed the key to Akaku, and by the way, handed a box to Akaku.

"This is a mobile phone distributed by the countermeasures room, and it contains the numbers of the head of the office, Mr. Iwabata, and others, so if you have any questions, you can call them and ask them. Well, I'll come and call you to the countermeasures room tomorrow morning. "It's completely businesslike.

After the other party left, he gently closed the door and opened the curtains slightly.

[The window faces southeast, and there are several buildings above this position on the opposite side, making it a very easy position to be monitored and sniped.] The best time to snipe is in the morning and at night, when it is easy to be exposed due to the reflection of sunlight in the afternoon. 】

Looking back at the single bed on the side.

【The bed is too close to the window】

The curtains were drawn, and several pages with Bibles floated to the wall by the window, and several spikes nailed the Bible to the wall with a cold light. The Bible emitted a faint yellow glow, and then quickly returned to normal.

"The enchantment is complete."

Pull the bed to the corner of the window and quickly and skillfully check whether there are any surveillance devices in the room.

After everything was done, Zhicai took out a simple mobile phone from his arms (no way, the current global satellite mobile phone is not ugly) and broadcast a string of numbers.

Toot toot

"Excuse me, I was scolded in front of His Holiness the Pope, and I still want a gratuity? Will pay you I'm an idiot. There was an angry and rough scolding voice on the phone.

"Huh? That's by Mie "Two familiar voices faintly came from the phone trying to argue.

"That Director Max Weil." There was a big bead of sweat hanging on the door of his head, and it seemed that Heinkel and Yumie were in trouble again.

"Is it knowledge?" The originally rough voice quickly changed to a steady and gentle voice, and I really doubted that it was the same person who spoke just now.

"It's me, Director, I've reached Japan."

"How, how does it feel? Hometown."

"I don't feel anything." Sense's reaction was rather lukewarm.

"It's a pity, I originally wanted to take this opportunity to let you experience the long-lost nostalgia!"

"Director, we're thirteen sections." For the director who often takes care of himself, he has a deep helplessness, and the people under him are all a group of problematic elements, not to mention their abilities, and most of them have some personality disconnection.

"That, Yumie and Heinkel are in trouble again?" I asked cautiously, hoping to help my two friends solve the crisis.

"Look at the news for yourself now!" At the mention of this, Maxwell was not angry.

I turned on the 19-inch TV in the room, and it was playing international news.

"The day before yesterday in the attack on the Vatican condolence group in the Bekaa plateau, all the terrorists were killed, but the Vatican priests were also frightened."

The camera immediately shifted to the victim priest who was interviewed

"That's right! It's very scary, the professional killer actually kills in priest's costume and nun suit. ”

"The identities of the two professional killers are still unknown, and the Vatican has not made any public statements about this"

Seeing this, I already understood why Maxwell would be so angry.

I turned off the TV.

It is conceivable that the two friends must have forgotten the director's orders again, and saw the priests being kidnapped and threatened by vicious pagan terrorists. So, the fanatics, in a fit of heat, put aside Max Well's orders to be just guards, and without any disguise, they dressed up in the costumes of priests and nuns, and staged a good show of torture and murder in front of everyone.

Then, instead of being grateful to the two of them, the rescued person was frightened into a state of mind, and most importantly, the incident was stabbed in the international news. No wonder the director is so angry, the Pope must have been severely reprimanded in front of him. And the reputation of the Thirteen Branches has become even more stinky.

[I'm sorry, Yumiko, Heinkell, I can't help you now.] 】

Yumiko and Yumie are one dual personality, the former is so kind that he refuses to kill even an ant, and the latter is extremely fierce, and the two personalities can alternate with each other, which just forms a reasonable complementary approximate.

"I see."

"That's good, let's take a long vacation, let's relax."

"I'll do my best" For this kind of life that may tend to be calm, there is a kind of confusion and resistance in my heart.

"In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit."

"Amen."

After hanging up the phone, silence returned to the room where the lights were not turned on.
