Gong Chen's 'clamour' didn't last long, and he was 'suppressed' by Father An.

Of course, strictly speaking, the priest did not respond to his words at all. The reason why the so-called 'persecution' appeared was actually just Gong Chen's own unilateral statement.

No one took him seriously, and they didn't pay any attention to him.

Probably even he felt a little bored, and Gong Chen, who was lying on the chair obediently, soon fell asleep. The speed was so fast that the others who had not yet acted were a little surprised.

Listening to the loud snoring and looking at the people who climbed into bed one by one, Yu Siqi was forced to sleep with Xie Chonggui at someone's strong request.

"You men sleep inside, we women sleep outside, okay?"

Xie Baozhen, who usually doesn't talk much, said to Yu Siqi and her cousin in an extremely tough tone at this moment. Looking at her posture, it is probably impossible to say 'no' to her easily.

Xie Chonggui, who understood this, took the lead in lying down after glancing at Yu Siqi.

"No opinion at all, I'm sure Mr. Siqi won't have any opinion, right?"

"Well, after all, ladies come first."

Later, Yu Siqi, who also lay down, found that in Gong Chen's wonderful snoring, the atmosphere of the whole room was a little indescribably subtle. It's like someone singing a lullaby, and it's very sleepy.

So, in the process of the eyelids beginning to pull down involuntarily, Yu Siqi fell asleep unexpectedly.

After thinking that he had slept for a long time, Yu Siqi opened his eyes.

It was very quiet all around, and even Gong Chen, who was supposed to make noise, was like a 'good baby'.

Resting his head slightly, Yu Siqi saw Father An who was leaning against the doorrail to 'meditate', and Xie Baozhen who was tiptoeing towards Father Xie.

"I should have guessed that you suddenly emphasized the matter of changing positions, but it bothered me for dozens of seconds."

Father An looked at Xie Baozhen with a smile on his face, his expression was very relaxed.

"I can't hide it from you. Right, Father? I'm still complacent about my cleverness. ”

Xie Baozhen also laughed, and her tone sounded a little self-deprecating.

"Except for the sudden 'strongness' that is a bit suspicious, it is really difficult to see the flaws in other aspects. I guess you've done a great job for non-specialists. So, don't ask too much of yourself. Not only does that create meaningless stress, but it is also physically and mentally damaging. ”

Father Ann changed his stance, and now he looked a little like he was standing on one foot.

"All right, Father. You know I definitely didn't come up to listen to you, so... Can we stop there? ”

It was clear that Xie Baozhen wanted to get straight to the point. The priest naturally understood the meaning of this and nodded.

But just as the former was about to speak, Father Ann raised his hand and stopped her from speaking.

"I'm sorry, I guess you don't want an extra audience for such a 'private topic', do you?"

In fact, when the priest said this, he was a little flustered when he heard Yu Siqi in his ears. If it weren't for the scene where William, who was hiding behind the cabinet, was picked up out of thin air with Father An's right hand raised, he would have almost gone into pretend to be asleep.

'It's okay, it's okay. ’

Yu Siqi comforted himself.

"Let go of me, I'm just curious."

William struggled for a little while and then gave up, because he himself knew that the priest didn't blame him, he just didn't want him to eavesdrop.

"There's nothing wrong with being curious. But the practice of sneaking around without the permission of others is not worthy of praise. You know what I mean, William? ”

Father Ann let go of William, who drifted away with great interest.

The priest, who turned his gaze back to Xie Baozhen, asked, "If I'm not mistaken, do you have any questions that you want to find answers to from me?" ”

"yes, uh... That is true... Father, since you've guessed everything, I'll be straight to the point. ”

She was a little flustered by the priest's return to the carbine, and she began to forget the words for a while. Fortunately, Father An on the side was extremely careful to give her time, which allowed the conversation to go on reluctantly.

"Take your time, don't rush. This is not an exam, and I'm sure you can reorganize the language. ”

Father An's gentle tone made Yu Siqi feel his care for Ah Zhen, and also made Xie Baozhen quickly regain his confidence.

"To be honest, I don't know why I'm so nervous all of a sudden."

Xie Baozhen blushed and covered her mouth with the back of her hand.

"Human emotions are always subtle, and they may not be easily perceived by themselves, but the body will instinctively react accordingly. It's all human nature, and there's nothing to be ashamed of. ”

Father An gently lowered the cabinet and motioned for Xie Baozhen to sit down.

"I've wanted to talk to you alone with Father Priest for a long time, especially... After coming to this place called the Armory. ”

Xie Baozhen and Father An sat at opposite ends of the cabinet, looked at each other's faces, and said.

"Is it because of Ah Zhe?"

Although Father An's voice was very soft, it still clearly reached Yu Siqi's ears in this almost very quiet room.

Xie Baozhen nodded.

"Looks like I can't escape this topic anymore! Although I don't really want to talk about that. However, since you asked about it, there is no point in me pretending to go on. Just ask, I'll try to satisfy you. ”

Father Ann held his chin with one hand and lifted Erlang's legs.

"First question, why was the priest indifferent after seeing Azhe's news?

The second question, now that we know the whereabouts of Ah Zhe from William's mouth, why don't we go to join Ah Zhe and the others, but instead stay in this kind of place?

The third question is, Father, are you hiding something from me? ”

Maybe he was afraid that he would not be able to speak, Xie Baozhen raised three questions in a series of questions after plucking up his courage.

"There are three big papers as soon as they come up, which is really comparable to the college entrance examination. Let's answer your third question first, yes... I do have some things that I want you or others to know about for the time being. Because... Personally, I don't think it's time yet. I promise you, when the time comes, I will confess. ”

Father Ann said happily.

"Then the other two questions, Father, you can't just pass it perfunctory!"

Xie Baozhen was relieved to learn that the priest was so 'honest'.

"Which question should I start with? Let's go in order. Actually, the first question is easy to explain, I have never been able to trust Fell, and naturally I will not fully trust any information he comes up with. But in that case, I could not find any strong evidence to support my suspicions. So I chose a more conservative approach, which is to 'turn a deaf ear'. Of course, I know that this is very risky, and it is likely that we will miss an opportunity to know the 'truth'. But our circumstances don't allow me to take risks, remember? The big guys were exhausted at the time, and even if they were forced out, they would probably just fall into another trap that had been set up a long time ago. ”

Father An's words were irrefutable, and they also made Xie Baozhen realize how 'ignorant' she was.

In a whispered 'I'm sorry', Father Ann continued.

As for your second question, it's better to understand. Do you think our current environment is more suitable for lodging, or is the cell in William's mouth more suitable for resting? I admit that it may be a bit selfish to say that, but human beings are inherently extremely selfish creatures. I'm also human, so naturally I have my own ideas. Besides, I don't think there will be any accidents with Ah Zhe by following them. In fact, I personally think so – if even they can't protect themselves, when we force our way there, it will probably only add to the sadness. It's better to settle yourself down first, as you are now, and then think about what to do next. ”

Father An straightened his sitting posture and put his hand on Xie Baozhen's cheek, gently brushing away the tears that the latter couldn't help but shed.

"However, I really don't dare to think about what happened to Ah Zhe..."

Xie Baozhen's voice was a little tight, and even his voice changed slightly.

"Oh, he's going to be fine. I think, if I'm expecting it to be good. ”

Father An casually swept over to Yu Siqi's side and looked at him with a perceptive gaze. This move directly made Yu Siqi understand that he couldn't continue to 'eavesdrop'. So, he put down his arm, which was a little numb. As a result, when he was about to turn over, he was surprised to find that he was not the only one 'awake' on this large bed.
