Chapter 188: The Priest and the Demon

Colin was a little curious, there was a little secret that Skye didn't want to let him know

Soon he found Skye on the surveillance, and she ran happily on the road until she walked into an abandoned subway passage and never came out again

Colin somewhat understood, the soul mark allowed him to feel that Skye was not the only one in the subway passage, but that there were many people

It seems that this is a gathering place for wanderers, and Skye doesn't want Colin to know that she lives in this kind of place

Colin frowned, it was indeed dangerous for a girl to live in this kind of place, and he remembered that in the original play, when S.H.I.E.L.D. caught her, she lived in a box truck

Do you want to befriend Zhenbo Girl in advance, her potential is very strong

At that moment, a man walked over and took the position opposite him

This man is about 30 years old, with short brown and black hair, a handsome face, an embarrassing beard, and a black dress with a white collar lining inside, which explains his profession

This is a priest or a priest

Colin frowned and said, "Father, there are a lot of empty seats here, I don't like to be disturbed"

The priest said, "May God be with you, I have come to save you, lost lamb!" ”

Colin: "Slut! ”

Ha ha! The priest on the other side laughed, and the two stood up and embraced

Thomas Ortega, Colin's high school classmate, after being adopted by Paul's family, Colin met this guy, and the two went to school together and fought together, so it can be said that this guy evoked Colin's childlike innocence

Later, this guy went to seminary, and the two rarely saw each other, and Colin lost contact even more after coming to New York

It's just that there is something wrong with his current state, Colin actually feels the breath of hell in him, although it is very faint, indicating that he has recently been in close contact with some kind of hellish creature

Colin teased, "What? You're really a priest, and you're not going to find a wife."

Catholic priests are not allowed to marry, and Colin is not a devout Catholic, so when he was a child, Paul's family took him to church for worship

There was a hint of gloom on Thomas's face, and Colin understood that he was hurt by love

Thomas: "Don't talk about me, you're so good now, you've become the deputy director of the FBI"

Colin explained: "No, no! It's just the deputy director, and the director is in Quantiko."

Rowling is actually the director of the second division, she is the same level as the director of the FBI, but as long as she is attached to the FBI for a day, she can only be a supervisor

Colin said with interest, "Tell me, Tommy, which parish do you work in?"

Ever since he became a Lucifer, he has been interested in religion

Thomas: "I've returned to my hometown, and I'm now an assistant bishop of the Archdiocese of Chicago, and now I serve my lord mainly at Evanston Cathedral."

Colin was rather surprised: "Doesn't that mean that when the archbishop retires, you can inherit the throne?" It's really good, what are you doing in New York this time" China

Speaking of this, a smug smile appeared on his face: "I developed Evanston into a star parish, and the people of the Archdiocese of New York invited me to speak"

A beautiful waitress came over to refill her glass, and she just nodded politely to Thomas, but instead stuffed Colin with a small note with a string of phone numbers written on it

Colin: "Look, this is the price of being a priest, the beauty directly ignores you, haha"

Thomas shook his head disappreciatively and took a sip of his coffee

Colin finally asked, "Tommy, have you been exposed to anything special lately, or have you been having nightmares or anything?"

It was his childhood buddy, and he certainly didn't want to let Thomas have an accident if he could

Thomas's face froze, and he sighed and said, "Colin, do you believe that there is a devil?"

Colin shrugged his shoulders and said, "Believe me, you can tell me anything incredible, my friend, my job now is very special, dealing with cases made up of many things that others don't believe in, two months ago, I just eliminated a nightmare demon." Do you remember the serial killer in Harunki Town, in fact, it was done by a demon who can make people fall asleep, and we claim to be a serial killer, you know this kind of thing can't be publicized"

Thomas's eyes widened, he didn't expect his long-lost friend to know more than he did

Then he told what had happened in his parish

There is such a family in Evanston

His father, Henry Lance, suffered a head injury and suffered from memory and mental decline, and his mother, Angela Lance, had a local company and was considered a celebrity in the business world

The reason why the church is so prosperous is inseparable from the dedication of these merchants

And the other day, his mother Angela came to him and told Thomas that her daughter Catherine seemed to be possessed by a demon, and that strange things often happened in her house, such as drawers opening on their own, chairs moving automatically, and so on

And there was a strange breathing sound in the wall, which made her think that her daughter, who had been at home all day, was possessed by a demon

In fact, Catherine had just experienced a serious car accident, and her best friend or girlfriend died next to her, so it is understandable that she was not in good spirits

But these supernatural conditions in the home cannot be explained

Thomas didn't believe in demonic possession at first, but since Angela came to him, he had been in a dream, a priest named Marcos was exorcizing a black child, and in the dream the child became in that unusually terrifying state, which made him unable to calm down for a long time

So, at Angela's request, he finally came to Lance's house for dinner

In the course of the chat, she noticed that Catherine, in addition to being a little rebellious, also seemed to have something wrong. On the contrary, the second daughter of the Lance family loves sports, has a healthy body, and is a beautiful girl full of vitality

However, he found something unusual about this girl, which was very similar to the little boy he dreamed of being exorcized in his dream, so he thought that Casey was the one who was haunted by the demon

This incident directly subverted the three views he had established in the first half of his life, and he was warned of nightmares again and again, and he thought that this was God's instruction to him, and God asked him to find the priest named Marcos to exorcise the poor girl

So he began to search for this priest named Marcos, and the effort paid off, and he finally found the information of this man, who now teaches at the seminary of San Aquinas

As a result, Father Marcos did not give him a good face, at first he said that there were no demons in this world, and then he was exposed by himself and said that he had not been an exorcist for a long time

This made him a little confused, how he could save the girl who was possessed by the devil, he recorded a video of the girl possessed with his mobile phone and reported it to the bishop, but the bishop said that the girl should see a psychiatrist

This invitation was actually an excuse that the bishop deliberately sent him away, Thomas was very good at developing the church, and the bishop did not want to let this mess ruin this promising young man in his opinion
