The Priest's Suspicion (Part II)
The priest's words made Yu Siqi unconsciously think of the previous 'ventriloquist' incident, and also made Wan Jie's questioning expression appear in his mind. He tried to keep his mind from thinking about the things that would shake his resolve. It's a pity that the 'ventriloquist' incident still had a big impact on him.
Especially when he thought of Qi Sheng's tragic experience, he began to question his heart, did he really not 'stop' the priest from continuing to be 'wrong'?
"I know it's not the right time to say this, Father. But shouldn't you be a little more restrained? After all, the previous 'ventriloquist' incident still illustrates a lot of problems. I don't want you to be 'wrong again and again'. ”
Yu Siqi's persuasion obviously attracted widespread attention, and at the same time, Father An chose to shut up for the time being. Because he mentioned a secret that no one else knew, he was now facing the fate of being questioned by others.
The most positive is Gong Chen, this guy has always been the kind who doesn't let go easily when he gets the opportunity. It's rare that there is a topic that he doesn't know and is related to the priest, so he naturally goes to death to ask.
There was even a scene of him and William working together to unilaterally test Siqi under Xie Baozhen's 'assist'.
Yu Siqi, who couldn't resist it, symbolically set his eyes on Father An's side, expecting the other party's assistance. Regrettably, the priest does not seem to intend to help those who have just 'taught' him. Yu Siqi, who had no choice but to choose the path of 'confession and leniency'. Fortunately, Fr. Ann did not say anything further about this.
Perhaps it is precisely because after listening to the story told by Yu Siqi that everyone's trust in the priest seems to have dropped a lot.
The most obvious is Gong Chen, this guy can rarely find an opportunity to bury the priest, so naturally he has to take advantage of it.
No, he and William's newly formed 'choir' even began to choreograph songs to make fun of the priest's 'obstinacy'.
Unfortunately, these two completely ignored Father An's strength. In order to match their 'enthusiastic chorus', Father Ann actually took the initiative to score the music with a whistle.
Probably realizing that this was just a waste of each other's time, William, who no longer sang, chose to use another way to launch an 'attack' against Father Ann.
"Priest, do you realize that you are showing symptoms of suspicion, I know that such a statement may make you uncomfortable. However, this may be a reasonable explanation for why you always want to take control of the whole thing. Admittedly, this may seem right, but it is not a wise move for people with psychological disorders. ”
It is not incomprehensible that William, a former professor of psychology, would use such a serious way to make a didactic critique of Father An's approach. It's a pity that he doesn't seem to realize what kind of bottom line he has touched at all.
"Understanding is the first step to acceptance, and it's clear that you're starting to say 'no' to accepting 'my thoughts.'"
There was no sign of anger on Father An's face, but every word in his tone revealed that he was very dissatisfied. I saw that he handed the crystal plate to Yu Siqi on the side; While taking out a thick ancient book from his bosom and opening it.
The yellowed pages made the characteristic sound of paper as the priest's fingertips turned. Flashes of words and symbols drifted into the air and began to surround himself. Then, an ancient, deep incantation flowed from between his lips and teeth, like a solemn poem.
Then, under the gaze of the crowd, the words and symbols that surrounded the priest flew into his body one by one. The priest now looked like an oversized light bulb, and his whole body glowed with that warm yellow glow.
Perhaps it was such a divine light that brought calm back to the restless heart, and even Gong Chen, who was supposed to express a little personal 'opinion', chose to shut up at this moment.
After becoming a 'large light bulb', Father Ann certainly wanted to be more than just a 'lighting tool'.
Sure enough, with a wave of his big hand, the golden light directly spread out towards the entire gallery in a circular manner.
As the rings of light touched all corners of the gallery, Yu Siqi finally knew what Father An's purpose was.
In fact, not only him, but even Gong Chen lowered his head in embarrassment. For not far from the wall where it had been struck, a small hidden door appeared in front of them.
Retracting the light that was emitting, Father Ann looked a little tired as he closed the book. But on the contrary, his interest was very high. Especially after seeing William and Gong Chen not continue to speak sarcastically about themselves, he deliberately raised his voice, and a very strong sense of oppression emanated from his body.
"Now, who is the 'sick one'?"
"I didn't know it would be like this."
Depressed, William looked like he had lost a battle.
"And what do you think the outcome will be, Professor William? Do you think I should be put in a special room for so-called 'treatment' like what you call a 'patient'? And you, my good student. I thought you'd be different from them, and I thought you'd at least choose to trust me, as we've made so many times before. However, you have disappointed me. Of course, blindly thinking about past gains and losses will only make me seem mean. It's just that I think you may owe me an explanation. ”
Father Ann took a few steps forward and pulled the small hidden door open. They were a little surprised by the sight inside, and almost all of the paintings were crammed into this small space less than three feet square. Some of the avatars even slipped out because the small door was opened.
Fortunately, Father Ann caught them one by one in time.
When the priest said this, Yu Siqi began to regret why he was not strong-willed. At the same time, Xie Baozhen was the first to stand up and say 'sorry' to the priest. It was she who made such a start, and everyone else expressed their apologies to Father Ann.
"I don't want to pretend that I have nothing to do with someone's death, that's not my intention. However, I sincerely hope that I will not confuse two completely different things together. Not only is it easy for you to lose your judgment, but it is more likely to lead to big mistakes. Okay, I'm not a stingy person, so let's pick up where we left off. In fact, because of the sheer number of paintings in it, I'd like you to do me a favor and take them out without damaging them. ”
As the atmosphere gradually became more relaxed, the sense of oppression that Father An brought to Yu Siqi quickly disappeared.
