Chapter 1385: Small Town

In the northern part of the Xizhou continent, there is a quiet town.

This town is winter for five months of the year, and a short distance to the north, it seems to be about to enter the Arctic Circle.

The town is very quiet, with no overdeveloped industry and commerce, a population of only a few thousand, and only a few roads, an old railway, and a small airport where not a plane has landed for several days.

This town is a station on a long intercontinental railway, a mottled old station, very distinctive, and tourists often get off the train to take pictures, but few people really stop.

In the middle of the town, there is a church, and in the square of the church, there are often some gray-haired old people, looking at the fountain that has dried up, talking about everything that has passed.

It's rare to see any tourists in the town, and occasionally a backpacker, raunchy backpacker, walks across the square, walks to a few small hotels on the edge of the square, and then asks a guide, or walks alone into the wilderness outside the town.

These small hotels rely on these occasional tourists to survive, and of course life is also very hard.

At this time, another traveler came to the square.

He looked up first and took a closer look at the old church, which had fallen into disrepair.

In front of the church, there is a notice posted on the notice, the handwriting on the notice has been mottled, which probably means that the stained glass windows of the church have been blown by the wind, and there is no money to repair them, hoping that the majority of the congregation can raise donations.

The visitor turned his head to look at the stained-glass window of the church and found that behind the glass, several wooden planks had been nailed.

The visitor stood silently in front of the church for a long time, and finally sighed, raised his feet, and walked towards the church.

An old lady sitting on a mottled bench with a headscarf looked up at the figure.

The back of the tourist is tall and muscular, wearing a pair of camouflage pants and a peaked cap.

Looking at his back, the old lady didn't know what to remember, and lowered her head and smiled.

An old dog, with bald fur, lying at her feet, looked up suspiciously, glanced at its master, and then lowered its head again.

Several dead leaves were blown by the wind, and one of them landed on its head, covering the tip of its nose, and it remained motionless.

With a "squeak", the door of the dilapidated chapel was pushed open, and the tall visitor strode in.

The benches filled the chapel, but unfortunately most of them were dilapidated, and there were signs of moth-eaten everywhere.

An old priest, standing on the altar, looked down at something, and when he heard the voice and looked up, he saw that it was a stranger, and he lowered his head again.

Sometimes, tourists come to the town to take pictures in the dilapidated church.

It seems that there are a lot of tourists who just like this tone.

But the tourist, who did not seem to have the intention of taking pictures, walked forward step by step, came to the altar and looked at the portrait behind the priest.

Seeing that he did not pray, nor did he show respect, the priest was a little displeased, and he was about to speak, when he saw the tourist, take out a wad of money, and put it in front of him.

"It's ......"

"Glass." The tourist was concise and pointed behind him.

"God will bless you!" The priest was excited, both this church and this parish needed this money.

Hearing this, the tourist smiled and shook his head.

"I hope so."

The priest frowned slightly and took a step forward, as if trying to educate the tourist.

Suddenly, his complexion changed, his hands began to tremble, and his knees became a little weak.

"First...... Prophet! ”

It turned out to be the Prophet!

The Prophet has come to my chapel!

The pastor's heart was beating out.

Now that he was discovered, Orion simply stopped hiding it.

He waved his hand and said, "I'm here to inquire about someone." ”

"You...... You say. ”

"A few years ago, there was a woman named Maia who moved to this town, do you know where she is?"

"Maia?" The priest frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "It seems that there is a nurse named Maia in the hospital, who is about forty years old. ”

"Nurse......" Orion nodded, "Okay, thank you." Where is the hospital? ”

The priest stretched out his hand and pointed out the door, and on the other side of the square was the town's hospital.

Seeing that Orion turned around and left, the priest hurriedly added.

"By the way, she seems to have moved in with her husband."

Orion paused, nodded, and strode out.

The priest frowned, then sighed and shook his head.

The prophet was just a man.

The hospital in the town is a bit busy.

Not long ago, the time storm injured many people in the town, and there were many elderly people in the town, and many of them were unwell and were admitted to the hospital.

Maia, the head nurse, was busy all day, barely touching the ground.

In the middle, a colleague said that someone was looking for her, and she casually said, "Let him wait for a while." ”

Then, it started to get busy again.

Until the end of the afternoon.

"You said someone was looking for me, who was it?"

"Ah, a very tall and handsome man, Maia, did you steal people behind Igor's back?" A colleague who knew each other giggled.

"Go." Maia spanked her.

"Really, Maia, life is too short, haven't you heard? Maybe tomorrow the earth will be destroyed, and if such a man comes to me, I will definitely rush to it. ”

In this town, the invasion of the Time Giant still seems to be something that happened on TV, and there is a sense of absurd unreality, and no one knows when the next one will come.

They only knew that the days should be lived or lived, and when the sky fell, there was a tall man on top of it.

Those people in the news always seem to be only on TV and will never come around.

"Igor came to pick me up, I'm leaving." Maia changed into her red tweed coat.

Even if she is middle-aged, Maia, who is in her forties, is still glamorous after changing her clothes.

And her husband Igor is a small man, honest and submissive.

Everyone is curious about how such a man chased Maia into his hands.

But Maia never mentioned her past, and everyone can only guess.

Maia walked to the door and saw a tall figure sitting on a bench on the side.

She felt a little familiar, but before she could think about it, Igor had already driven the car out of the parking space.

In fact, it is not far from here to home, at most a kilometer away.

But over the years, Igor has almost never been able to pick her up every day.

Sitting in the co-pilot, Maia complained a few words about the hospital and saw something in the back seat.

"What is this?"

"You're in a bad mood these days, so I've prepared a candlelit dinner." "I hope it will make you feel better." ”

Maia turned her head to look at the back seat and saw that it was full of flowers.

A smile appeared on Maia's face, but the smile quickly froze.

She saw a tall man in a peaked cap standing on the side of the road.
