275, Matthew (for the alliance leader)
June 8th.
Headquarters of the Twilight Church, Switzerland.
When Hannibal returned, the council table in the church was full.
He glanced at his place, and next to him sat a middle-aged man about his age, with an expressionless face and a pair of very deep eyes.
It's a little weird.
This person is obviously white in appearance and figure, but his eyes are dark and brown, a bit like a mixed race.
Hannibal thought for a moment, and a name came to mind - James.
Before leaving the Twilight Church, he had heard that one of the church's hunters had chosen to join.
It should be this person.
The atmosphere was a little wrong.
Hannibal looked at the man sitting on the throne, who had not appeared in the previous meetings, but no one dared to ignore him.
Because this man is the actual leader of the Twilight Church.
No one knows his name, or the person who knows his name, is either dead or an absolute confidant.
His identity is a mystery, Hannibal has only met him once, and vaguely remembers that the other seems to be an old man.
Looking at the man who was dressed in a priest's robe, with a reverse cross on his chest and a large hood covering his entire face, Hannibal smiled and bowed down decently and said, "Praise be to your Excellency." ”
The person addressed as Your Excellency nodded slightly.
The person on the side said: "Mr. Hannibal, how are you and Mr. Du Wei in contact, and is the other party willing to join us?" ”
Hannibal laughed and said, "We got in touch very well, and we became good friends, but he didn't seem interested in Twilight." ”
The other party was a little regretful: "Okay, so you are busy this time." ”
Hannibal looked strange: "No, at least I got a very important piece of news, Alvin Dawqua is dying." ”
With that, he walked over to his place, pulled out a chair and sat down.
Others had strange expressions.
Eyes meet, silently.
Sitting next to Hannibal happened to be James.
When he heard this, his expression remained unchanged, but his heart was filled with curiosity.
Alvin Dawwe was a veteran hunter of the Church, and Hannibal was in contact with Dewey, with whom he claimed to be friends.
This kind of important news, Du Wei would actually tell the people of Twilight.
Did he go undercover for Twilight?
James had the idea of informing the church of this, but the thought of the order given to him by the church could only extinguish this thought.
Before getting covert feedback from the church.
He is the man of the twilight bell, and he must not show any horses.
At this time.
Someone said, "By the way, Mr. Hannibal, did you see Depp when you left?" He has been missing for two days. ”
Hannibal remembered the hunter he had eaten earlier, shook his head, and said with a smile, "I haven't seen him." ”
The man hummed and stopped talking.
It's as if you don't care.
And the leader, who was sitting at the top, reached out and knocked on the table.
Knock knock knock......
"Ladies and gentlemen, the church is currently losing a lot of manpower, and the Archbishop Skady has sent us a message for help."
"Tell me what you think."
All of a sudden, there was a lot of discussion.
It dawned on Hannibal that it was no wonder that the atmosphere was so solemn, it turned out that the church had made contact with Twilight on the surface.
However, he wasn't going to speak.
Because Depp has been killed by himself, it is best not to be in the limelight during this time, otherwise he is likely to be targeted.
Twilight originated in the church, and it also inherited the divisions and confusion within the church.
And it's getting more and more obvious.
Instead, he turned his gaze to James to the side.
Hannibal remembers very well that this James seemed to have a good relationship with Dewey.
"Funny ......"
He said something in his heart, and sat up.
Bang......
Someone slapped the table: "The church was founded by a group of people who were carried away by faith, it has long since decayed, and we don't need to have any contact with the church." ”
It was a new faction that was hostile to the Church, and their idea was to let Twilight stay in Switzerland and develop it, and it would be better to stay in contact with the Church and watch the Church decline step by step.
But as soon as he said this, someone sarcastically said, "Is it? But I don't think there's anything wrong with maintaining goodwill with the church, and Twilight Bell and the church are always of the same origin, so there's no need to tear your face. ”
This man is old-fashioned.
The leader of the Twilight Church, the old man known as Your Excellency, remained silent, listening to the crowd and falling into reminiscence.
He remembered his former name, Snape Matthew.
But now, the name has long been forgotten, and he has chosen to give it up because of some kind of secret.
Even the people inside the twilight bell have changed generations, and they don't know his real name.
The more people discussed, the more excited they became.
It soon turned into a violent quarrel, and there was even an intention to do it.
Matthew had a headache, knocked on the table again, and said, "That's enough, are you going to use Twilight as a battlefield?" Or do you want to split now? ”
High hats, no one dares to wear them.
Immediately, the men apologized: "I'm sorry, Your Excellency, please forgive us for our rudeness. ”
Matthew coughed and said, "This matter won't be brought over like this, the next time we have a regular meeting, you give me a solution, and I will only use the opinion that is most beneficial to Twilight." ”
His voice was very old, with a lingering sense of decay, like a dying man who has one foot in the grave.
In fact, he had a plan for a long time, but on the surface, he had to ask for the opinions of many people.
Otherwise, it will inevitably make some people have strange ideas.
After speaking.
Matthew turned his head to look at Hannibal again: "That special hunter named Ryan, you don't seem to have made a difference in him. ”
Hannibal lowered his head, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes: "He will be willing to cooperate with us." ”
It seems that the council is not just for the church.
Matthew glanced at him and said in an indifferent tone: "You've been working hard lately, I'll give you a vacation, and during this time, Ryan will be handed over to James to be responsible." ”
James on the side nodded, "Follow your wishes, Your Excellency." ”
Hannibal looked up, and the smile on his face grew stronger.
He opened his mouth: "Yes." ”
……
The other side.
Dewey and Alex walk the streets of New York.
The two were shopping.
Just like the most ordinary couples, they need this kind of daily activity to strengthen their relationship with each other.
But I just walked out of a famous men's clothing store.
Du Wei received a phone call.
The address book shows Reagan's father.
"Hello Dr. Dewey, I'm Reagan's father, and a month ago, I took my daughter Reagan to your counseling clinic for a counseling appointment, you should remember."
"Recently, my daughter's condition has been serious again, I don't know if you have an appointment recently?"
