Chapter 10: The Top of the Storm 50

Looking at the battery car carrying Nicole away-

"Don't expect a car to drive you, go down this road by yourself. Naturally, you'll find dormitories for those who sweep the floor. The security captain next to him pointed to a green path and said.

"Okay, thanks." Lloyd walked into the greenery alone and smiled.

Sure enough, it is a very luxurious manor, and even the trail is planted with all kinds of rare plants, lush and full of life, and you can faintly hear birds singing from time to time.

Walking and walking, walking for a long distance, Lloyd had not even seen the so-called staff dormitory, but a church-like building appeared in front of him.

It is a church with a creamy white façade, arched doors, and red-and-yellow intervals of color-striped arched windows. In front of the church there is a small circular fountain with a special statue standing in the fountain: human, deity, and ghost.

There was a burst of bells in the church, thick and heavy......

Seeing that there was no one outside the church, Lloyd walked around the fountain and walked up the low steps to the door of the church.

Inside the church came the murmuring of a woman.

With a flick of his right hand, Lloyd pushed open the church door.

The church is lit with candles, just like the traditional European-style church, the white candles stand on the candle stand in rows and rows, and the candlelight dances gently, as if singing the scriptures that cleanse the soul.

In front of the rows of empty chairs, there seemed to be a lot of devout believers listening.

However, in the entire church, there was only one person in front of him, except for Lloyd.

Beneath the statue of the Virgin Mary, a woman kneels reverently, chanting there......

The church was not large, and Lloyd quietly walked not far behind the woman and sat down on the empty bench.

"Thank the Lord for giving me food. Thank you, Lord, for giving me strength......" the woman read with her eyes closed.

Lloyd looked at the woman's back, very familiar, although she had changed into a black dress, and she was Qiu Min, the psychological counselor in the office.

"Why is she here?" Lloyd thought to himself.

"Please forgive me for everything I did...... I'm willing to accept all punishments......" Qiu Min whispered there.

After a moment of trivial chatter, Qiu Min stood up, turned around and prepared to leave.

Suddenly, she saw a man sitting on a bench, and she was startled, and then she fixed her eyes and saw that it was the same Lloyd she had seen today.

"It's you?! How did you end up here!? Qiu Min asked angrily.

"Passing by...... I'm curious, a counselor who needs the Virgin Mary to forgive, doesn't know that this counselor has made an unforgivable mistake? Lloyd asked coldly, glancing at Qiu Min and then at the kind statue of the Virgin Mary.

"What's the matter with you!? You get me out. Qiu Min gasped and said angrily, pointing to the door of the church.

"Don't get excited, being a counselor has encountered something that can't be solved by himself, and this thing seems to be not small. For example, murder of human life. Lloyd said coldly and steadily.

Qiu Min's eyes suddenly became much more hollow, and he walked to the other end of the bench where Lloyd was sitting in a daze, and sat down weakly, silent.

"In your eyes, is money really more important than human life? Is money more important than your principles and professional ethics!? Lloyd questioned further, stood up, walked over to the candle stand, and re-lit some of the candles that had been extinguished.

When the extinguished candles shone again, the church became brighter again.

"Sometimes the candle in my heart goes out, it doesn't matter, if you want, you can still light it again." Lloyd turned around, looked at Qiu Min and said.

Qiu Min lowered his head, his hands rubbed back and forth vigorously and slowly, very anxious.

"You...... Who are you? Qiu Min asked tremblingly, raising his head to look at Lloyd.

"The messenger of light who shows you the right path." Lloyd returned to the bench and sat down.

"I'm gone, there's hope!?" Qiu Min looked at Lloyd and asked excitedly.

Lloyd didn't answer right away, but stood up again and walked slowly towards the candle stand.

Qiu Min's gaze moved with Lloyd.

Lloyd held out his right hand and gestured to the candle.

"The glimmer of hope is still flickering, and you can turn back." Lloyd said with a smile.

"But I'm not a clean woman anymore! I don't have the right to pursue love anymore! I even sold my soul! Sleeping with the enemy! Qiu Min said sadly, tearing his hair in pain. It seems that the end of being unhappy all the time is that it is difficult to bear such mental pressure, even for psychological counselors.

"Everyone has the right to salvation." Lloyd walked up to the statue of the Virgin Mary and bowed reverently.

Qiu Min smiled slightly with tears in his eyes.

Lloyd smiled slightly when he saw the swaying figure outside the completely opaque window of the church.

"Tell me, where are they?" Lloyd closed his eyes and felt the light shining in the church, as if a warm power filled the entire church.

Qiu Min's face was ugly...... The man in front of him seems to know everything, and he seems to have seen through everything, is this man really a messenger sent by God?

"They're ......," Qiu Min said tremblingly.

At this time, five or six specially dressed security guards rushed in from outside the church.

"You see, these Yellow Spring envoys have come to the door." Lloyd opened his eyes, looked at the security guards, and said to Qiu Min.

When she came to report to the black-hearted boss, after the black-hearted boss lingered with her, he arranged for her to change her clothes and wait here. Qiu Min, who can be a consultant, is not stupid, she also knows that she has been used up and cannot escape, so she said to Lloyd: "Help me!" I'll take you to them! ”

"That's right!" Lloyd smiled.

"Boy, you're going to be nosy?! How many lives do you have? Brothers, on! The security guard said viciously with a baton and an electric baton.

"Hide behind the Virgin! I'll leave it to me here! Lloyd said.

Qiu Min hurriedly ran behind the statue of the Virgin Mary, and squatted there with his head covered in horror.

Then came the sound of a "clanging clang", the sound of the benches being knocked over, and the sound of candle stands being slammed.

After a while, it was quiet.

Qiu Min poked his head out from behind the statue of the Virgin in a panic.

Lloyd was standing there unharmed, and the security guards had been knocked down.

"Are you really sent from heaven to save me?!" Qiu Min asked in a daze.

"Perhaps, but only you can redeem yourself. You need to make a choice. Lloyd said as he lifted the overturned chair and candle stand with his right hand.

Qiu Min sat behind the statue of the Virgin, feeling lost in this glittering city, reduced to a body that only knew how to get drunk and gold, and his eyes were dim.

Lloyd lifted the candle stand and re-lit the extinguished candle.

The light of hope was rekindled......
