151, necklace (plus more for a monthly pass)
16:09 p.m.
After spending half a day of peace with Alex, Dewey suddenly received a text message from Father Tony.
The church has already issued a notice that someone will be sent to New York in three days to investigate the matter of the Twilight Church and Goliath Winery.
It also included two bishops.
As the exorcist in charge of New York, Dewey had to go to church.
In addition to foreshadowing an alibi in advance, there is also the idea of getting something from Father Tony.
So, after saying goodbye to Alex, Dewey drove the "brand-new" McLaren GT to the church.
……
The road is unimpeded, and all cars are deliberately kept at a distance from each other, or avoided.
Ten minutes later, Du Wei arrived at his destination.
At this time, the elderly Father Tony was in front of the church, pushing a cart full of goods, his face flushed.
Seeing a luxurious sports car parked around, his expression was suddenly very surprised.
When Dewey opened the car door and walked down, Father Tony exclaimed.
"Oh God...... Mr. Dewey, this car ...... Did you rob a bank, or did you pay a fortune to rent it? ”
Du Wei closed the car door casually and said lightly: "No, this is what my girlfriend gave me." ”
Father Tony couldn't help but blurt out, "When did you have a girlfriend?" And...... Give? Lord...... I've never seen anything so crazy. ”
Du Wei spread his hands and said: "I haven't seen it either, but this is the truth, in fact, I came this time today to tell you that I am going to meet her parents with my girlfriend." ”
At the end, he added: "By the way, I'm going to get something from you that can ward off evil spirits and give it to my girlfriend, and the price is easy to say." ”
Public is public, private is private.
This is very clear from both Father Tony and Dewey.
"There are things." Father Tony frowned, "But are you leaving New York?" How long? ”
You must know that the church attaches great importance to Du Wei, otherwise it would not have sent two bishops, under normal circumstances, one bishop with others is enough.
If Du Wei is not in New York when the people from the church arrive, it will definitely bring a bad image to the church.
Although Dewey is an Asian American, the current situation of the church does not dwell on this, and if possible, there is nothing unacceptable to have an additional Asian bishop in the history of the church.
When Du Wei heard Father Tony's words, he explained: "Two days is enough, and I will definitely come back before the people of the church arrive." ”
Two days was enough time for him to settle the matter in Massas City.
Father Tony breathed a sigh of relief, and while pushing the cart towards the church, he greeted and said: "As long as you don't miss the time, anyway, the evil spirit incident in New York is basically gone during this time, you don't need to be too tired, there is nothing wrong with doing something of your own." ”
Behind him, Du Wei's black eyes became more and more obscure: "I think so too." ”
After the two entered the church, the rare Father Tony did not take him to the reception room, but to the basement.
……
The basement is located in the backyard of the church, which is a staircase that extends downward.
Du Wei helped Father Tony, carefully carrying the cart so that it would not be bumped.
When I got down, I saw a heavy iron door.
Father Tony let go of his hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and smiled at Du Wei: "I'm really bothering you, the things on the cart are all supplies sent by the church, if I don't have your help, I want to move into the basement alone, so I can only come one by one." ”
Du Wei smiled lightly: "You can also notify me to come over to help in the future, it's not troublesome." ”
Father Tony nodded in satisfaction, took the key out of his pocket, and opened the door to beckon Dewey to go in.
Inside, the light is dim.
Father Tony pressed a switch on the wall to brighten up the interior and make it visible.
Du Wei glanced over and saw a lot of mess around him.
There were rusty crosses, lacquered wood, silver, and gold.
There are also some gold coins......
Some strange beakers and jars, and even a priest's gown.
Nothing seems to be able to deal with evil spirits......
"It's not quite what I imagined."
Du Wei shook his head and couldn't help but say.
In his opinion, Father Tony is the base camp of the exorcists in New York, and although he is the only exorcist now, the supplies from the church have never been short.
It stands to reason that there should be a lot of things.
Father Tony explained with some embarrassment, "As you can see, the basement is empty, but it wasn't like that before, there was a lot of holy water and shrouds, and things like that framed cabinet, but because of the events in Massas, a lot of things were removed. ”
It dawned on Du Wei that he had a better understanding of the dangers of Massas City.
However, Alex is already looking for someone to collect information about Massas City, so he won't let himself rush to the city with a black eye.
At this point, Father Tony began to unload the contents of the cart.
While unloading, he said: "This time the two bishops came, and some things were prepared for them in advance, but as the person in charge of New York, you have the right to buy some." ”
As he spoke, Father Tony said helplessly: "If it were your wife, there would be no so-called money, and the church would not care about such trivial matters, but she is just your girlfriend...... You should get the idea, right? ”
Du Wei nodded and said, "Of course I know, so, what good things do you have?" ”
He had to make sure Alex was safe.
Father Tony replied, "There's one, but it's a bit of a. ”
The voice landed.
Father Tony pulled out a white box from the pile.
It looks a lot like a gift box of some kind of jewelry.
When it was opened, there was a silver-white cross necklace, but it looked very old and didn't quite look like the clergy wore it.
"Wearing this necklace, the evil spirit will not be able to do anything to it for a period of time, but if this person has been targeted by the evil spirit before, then its effect is not very great."
Du Wei took the necklace, felt the coolness from the palm of his hand, and said thoughtfully: "In other words, it can't be used to deal with evil spirits, and can only be prevented in advance?" ”
Father Tony nodded, "Yes, generally speaking, this kind of thing is for novices who have just become exorcists, and it can help them adapt to evil spirit events. ”
After saying that, Father Tony said with some distress: "Of course, compared to its function, its price is very expensive...... Because this necklace is worth a lot of money in itself. ”
Du Wei had a headache: "How much?" ”
Father Tony said, "Two hundred thousand...... Of course, you can also pay for it with Goliath's salary, after all, Ms. Victor paid 500,000 yuan. ”
