Dongshan Church is located in Dongshan District, Zhongnan City, although it is the smallest of the three cathedrals in Zhongnan City, but because the people who believe in Catholicism in Dongshan District far exceed those in other districts, Dongshan Church's weekday activities are the most among the three cathedrals.
Sunday is the regular Sunday of the East Hill Church, and the hall for the 200 people is almost full each week, and the last day of the day is a choir of seventeen or eighteen children, singing beautiful hymns in their young voices.
Luo Ji and Eli quietly walked into the church with this holy song.
Father Joshua was the head of the Dongshan Church and the man Luo Ji was looking for.
After more than half an hour, the people who attended the service gradually dispersed, and only three or three people were left in the empty hall talking in small voices.
"Hello Father, my name is Daniel." Luo Ji smiled and stretched out his hand.
Father Joshua turned around and saw Luo Ji stunned for a moment, then gently shook hands with Luo Ji and smiled, "Hello, is there something wrong?" ”
"Old John asked me to give you these two discs." Luo Ji took out the music disc of Johann Strauss Jr. and Mendelssohn, which he bought at Uncle Tan's video store for the first time, and handed it to Father Joshua.
The priest's hand froze suddenly, and it took a while to take the two beautifully packaged discs in Luo Ji's hand, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Old John, how is he?" ”
"Good." Luo Ji smiled faintly, looked at the crucifix statue in the middle of the church, and said softly, "He has completed his mission and can finally rest." ”
The priest closed his eyes slightly, sighed secretly, and then slowly opened the wrapping paper, took out the two music discs, and looked at them attentively, as if he were looking at some rare treasure.
Luo Ji looked at Father Joshua's serious face, and suddenly his heart moved.
Father Joshua looks to be in his thirties, tall, and obviously of Western descent, but in addition to the brown eyes, the eyebrow bones and the bridge of the nose are not high, and the eye sockets are not as esoteric as those of Westerners, and the whole face appears softer, which is very oriental.
It should be said that Father Joshua and Uncle Tan did not have any imagination, and Luo Ji felt an indescribable familiarity.
"Thank you, Daniel." After a long time, Father Joshua finally controlled his emotions and put away the disc to thank Luo Ji.
"You're welcome, things are delivered, and I should go." Luo Ji nodded slightly, turned around to leave.
"Wait." Father Joshua stopped Luo Ji, walked a few steps to the bookcase next to the altar, took out a Bible, handed it to Luo Ji, and said, "Give this Bible to you, may God bless you." ”
"Thank you, Father." Luo Ji drew a cross on his chest and took the Bible with both hands.
Eli had been sitting in the last few rows of seats in the hall when he saw Luo Ji coming over, smiled at the priest, and walked out of the church together.
"What did you get?" Not far from the church, Eli couldn't hold back and asked in a low voice.
Luo Ji shook the Bible in his hand: "It is estimated that it is a task." ”
"Open it and take a look."
Luo Ji smiled: "I can't see anything when I open it, you think the priest will clip a note inside." ”
"Won't it?" Eli was not convinced, snatched the Bible, took it in his hand and quickly flipped through it, and indeed there was no note, it was a very ordinary Bible, at least eighty percent new.
"Are you sure we have a mission here?" Eli was skeptical.
"Why else give me a Bible?" Luo Ji said lightly.
"But how do you find it?" Eli flipped through it again, but still didn't see any difference.
"Go back and study slowly, if you look at it like this, you can see the difference, and there is no secrecy." Luo Ji said with a smile.
"Do you still have to give those two lists to the priest?" Eli asked quietly.
Luo Ji smiled mysteriously: "It's already for him." ”
Eli was stunned for a moment and asked worriedly, "Are you caught in the disc?" It's too dangerous, are you sure that Father Joshua we see today must be the priest we are looking for? ”
The two lists left by Uncle Tan are not trivial, if they fall into the hands of the Luo people, the underground resistance organizations in Zhongnan City will be all over, including the Luo Ji team.
Although Father Joshua is the new connector left by Uncle Tan through code words, Luo Ji and the others have never seen Father Joshua, if someone is fake, Luo Ji will hand over the list so easily, it is indeed too rash.
"It's on the disc, but if it weren't for Father Joshua himself, I wouldn't have seen the list, and of course, I wouldn't have gotten this Bible." Luo Ji shook the Bible in his hand.
"Why?" Eli wondered.
"I didn't give him two pieces of paper full of lists directly, but wrote the list on the track list of the disc with a special potion, and to see the words on it, you first had to shake hands with me, and there is a special way to shake hands." Luo Ji stretched out his right hand slightly, and on the wrist of his right hand, there was a red mark that was not very obvious.
"It's the mark of a potion." Luo Ji explained, "If Joshua is himself, when he shakes my hand, his thumb will rub back and forth on my mark twice, and the potion will stick to his thumb. ”
Eli also rubbed Luo Ji's wrist twice with interest, spreading his hand without a trace.
"It's been so long, it's gone." Luo Ji said with a smile.
"Dip your thumb in the potion, rub the disc on the tracklist, and you can see how you write?" Eli asked.
Luo Ji shook his head: "No, this is just the first step, I sprinkled another potion on one corner of the wrapper, the two potions fused, and then rubbed the track list of the disc to see the handwriting." ”
The handwriting that appears will disappear after a minute, as if all the ingredients have been combined after the three potions have been mixed together. Therefore, after the handwriting is displayed, it becomes an ordinary piece of paper, and no matter what means are used, it cannot be checked for any difference.
Father Joshua was ostensibly watching the disc, but in fact he was looking at the list he had rubbed and silently remembering it.
Eli shrugged in amazement and sighed, "How did you come up with such a vague idea?" How did Father Joshua know? ”
Luo Ji chuckled: "Use your brain, of course I didn't think of it, it was Uncle Tan who taught me, if Father Joshua is the contact person designated by Uncle Tan, he will naturally know that when I stretch out my hand to shake his hand, I am verifying his identity, and at the same time, I am also telling him what to think of the information I passed on to him." ”
Eli's eyes darkened, and he said sadly: "Uncle Tan is really a rare good person, knowledgeable and experienced, but it's a pity that ......"
"So, whether this mission is to kill He Literature or not, I won't let him live." Luo Ji's tone was smooth and his voice was very soft, as if he was saying something inconsequential, but Eli clearly felt his anger and firmness from the cold air emanating from his body.
Holding Luo Ji's slightly cool hand, a little harder, Eli also said in a relaxed tone: "Take me." ”
Since the street where Dongshan Church is located is relatively narrow and there are many pedestrians, Luo Ji parked his car on the adjacent street and walked to the church with Eli.
Of course, another reason why Luo Ji did this was to observe whether anyone was following them.
Back in the car, Rogue asked Eli to drive and carefully study the Bible that Joshua had given him.
He is not a Christian, and although it is not the first time he has read the Bible, his familiarity cannot be compared with that of a Christian, and Father Joshua is very clear about this. So, if Father Joshua wanted to convey any message, he would never use the Bible.
A book, in addition to words, is numbers. Luo Ji first checked the pages of the Bible, but unfortunately he carefully turned to the end of the book, and there were many pages.
Thinking of the handwriting that I wrote on the disc track with an invisibility potion, this Bible is probably also written with a special potion.
Walking Street Basement.
Eugene, who didn't let him go, was already waiting inside, and when he saw Luo Ji and Eli walking in, he hurriedly stepped forward to ask about the situation.
"Learn from Dick, I didn't let him participate in the two operations, and I didn't scratch my ears and cheeks as anxiously as you did." Luo Ji was not in a hurry, took out the Bible and handed it to Eugene, turned around and walked into the pantry to make tea.
In the previous day's operation, Dick was responsible for making the slow-burning but smoky arrows, and although he didn't have any task in today's operation, Dick's restaurant itself was a gathering place for intelligence, and who knew when and which customer's inadvertent revelation was crucial.
So Luo Ji easily did not let Dick leave the restaurant, although Dick was very dissatisfied with this.
"Just take the Bible?" Eugene asked.
"Luo Ji said to try it with a special potion." Eli saw that Eugene didn't find any information, and prompted.
Eugene immediately brought a bowl of water, dropped a few drops of the potion, and began to learn from Luo Ji's previous appearance, using a brush dipped in the diluted potion to smear the front cover, back cover, spine, table of contents, etc. of the Bible little by little, but after tossing for a long time, not a word was displayed.
Luo Jihe followed behind them, and Dekaise, who had just returned, sat at the other end of the table drinking tea, watching the two toss.
"Do you want us to help?" Seeing that Eugene and Eli were sweating from tossing, Luo Ji asked leisurely while drinking tea.
"No, you don't." Eugene flatly refused, he didn't believe in a small book, and he couldn't find any information.
After tossing the potion, the two discussed, brought the alcohol lamp again, and prepared to roast it over the fire.
"Be careful, don't light it." Decais reminded with a smile.
Eugene glared at Decais with a grunt, but his hands were much more careful.
After more than ten minutes, there is still no gain.
"Luo Ji, are you sure that the Bible has a hidden message, not that the Bible itself is a message?" Eugene asked suspiciously.
Luo Ji smiled and shook his head: "I don't know." ”
"We can't help it, you come here." Eli shouted.
Luo Ji glanced at Decais with a smile, and the two walked over together.
