Chapter 13: Sudden Changes

Let's go!

The soldiers who had spent a lot of money to hire from the army were sent away in this way, and even almost became their enemies who were lobbied. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

This is John Condon, who is known for his cowardice!

It's horrible.

An Lila's face turned pale, and she looked at the kind young man in the hall, and for some reason, a strong sense of fear suddenly welled up in her heart.

"No, we can't let him be arrogant anymore."

An Lila sat in her chair and thought wildly, her head gradually became a mess, and she even forgot to mention the matter of "my brother was seriously injured".

For a moment the hall became quiet again, and even the sound of breathing could be heard.

I don't know how long it took, but the rich smell of rice wafted from the kitchen.

John took off his hat, bowed slightly, and said,

"Madame, lunch is ready, would you like to dine with me?"

An Lila shook her head subconsciously, and soon she realized her gaffe, a trace of intense resentment flashed on her face, she glared at John fiercely, and walked up to the second floor without looking back.

After returning to her room, An Lila screamed, the more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, and in anger, she lifted the blue and white porcelain next to her and slammed it on the wall.

Syllable!

The $3,000 Chinese Jun porcelain suddenly turned into a pile of shards, and the porcelain slag splattered, and a small piece of it slashed across Anlila's bare arm, and immediately the blood flowed like a column.

Seeing this scene, Anlila became more and more manic, tearing her hair and slamming into the bedtable like a madman.

Bang!

A tall figure appeared in front of An Lila, and his strong arms hugged An Lila's trembling body, and comforted softly,

"Don't be sad, I'll make him pay."

"Kill him!"

"What?"

An Lila raised her head, her eyes were bloody, full of violent killing intent, she tore the sleeve of the man's shirt, and said with great resentment,

"I want you to kill him, go now."

The tall figure shook his head silently, his arms clenched even tighter.

"You bastard!"

The furious Ann Lila slapped the man in the face, and the man silently endured it, allowing Ann Lila to go crazy in his arms, until she gradually quieted down, and then whispered in her ear,

"Don't worry, I won't let him survive tonight."

Meanwhile, John, who was enjoying a meal downstairs, didn't know that a "singing and crying" love story was going on 33 meters to his upper left.

A delicious pasta, half a pound of ripe Austrian steak, dessert, juice, fruit salad and a glass of red wine.

I have to say that Master Condon's lunch is indeed very rich.

Adhering to the principle of not wasting food and getting stronger the more he eats, John stuffed the food into his stomach without falling to the ground, and the terrible appetite made the maid on the side stunned.

John, who had eaten and drunk, suddenly lost his energy, and leaned lazily back in his chair, not wanting to move.

It was probably the most relaxing moment he'd ever had.

Unfortunately, good times are always fleeting.

It wasn't long before Debbie arrived, bringing with her a well-dressed old gentleman.

"Young Master, this is Father Doron from St. Louis's Cathedral, and he has heard that you are going to hold a funeral for the six deceased, and he has come to meet with you."

Debbie introduced carefully, waving her hands and eyes as she spoke, asking him to quickly tidy up his appearance.

St. Louis Cathedral!

John was startled and immediately came to his senses.

There are not many cathedrals in the world, each of which has a legendary name, such as Notre Dame Cathedral, Cologne Cathedral, Milan Cathedral, etc., and St. Louis Cathedral is the only cathedral in 11 southern states.

The name of the cathedral was established before the Great Schism, so it is recognized by the Catholic Church, the Orthodox Church and other major traditional denominations. Therefore, whether Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant or Old, priests choose to study in the cathedral for a period of time before being promoted to bishop.

In simple terms, it is the place where the training is made on how to become a bishop.

The mild-faced old man in front of him is from St. Louis Cathedral, which means that he is very likely to become a bishop of the first district.

That's a great guy!

(Note: The United States is a country where all people believe in religion, so the social status of the bishop is higher than the governor of a state in some respects. )

John hurriedly got up, walked up to the priest, bowed slightly, and said,

"Father Doron, I'm glad to see you here."

The priest bowed slightly, looked John up and down, and said,

"Mr. John, can you take me for a walk outside?"

"It's an honor!"

……

The autumn wind blows, and the autumn leaves are one after another, and the leaves fall to the ground one by one, dotted with patches of gold.

On the leaf-covered forest path, John and Father Doron walked side by side, gently communicating in the midday light.

As the two of them walked to a broken rock, Father Doron suddenly stopped, turned around and asked,

"Mr. John, have you ever seen the undead?"

John's heart tightened, but his face remained unchanged at all, and he said,

"Undead? Father Priest refers to ......"

"Vampires."

The priest's smile was still gentle, but when he said these three words, there was still a disgust in the depths of his eyes.

"Nope!"

John shook his head and laughed at himself,

"With my small body, if I touch it, I can't run away."

"Your Excellency is too worried." The priest smiled slightly and said,

"If the body is not good, you can exercise more, but if the heart is bad, then everything is over, Your Excellency did not hesitate to offend your relatives for the orphans, widows and six cursed souls, and the goodness of the heart is really admirable."

Hearing this, John only felt that his eyes suddenly lit up, this sentence spoke directly to his heart, and for a while even the eyes of the priest were a lot closer, and he patted his ass so without leaving a trace, he deserved to be the incoming bishop, and he was really not an ordinary person.

John smiled humbly and took the opportunity to say,

"I have a reluctant request to ask the priest to officiate at the funeral of those six unfortunate people."

"Where the duty lies, why don't you ask for it."

The two looked at each other and smiled in unison, one like a fox who had succeeded in his tricks, and the other like a scheming bear.

At the end of the forest path is a green plateau, and from a distance, the building with the sign of the Holy Cross stands out in the sunlight.

The holiest place in Conton Manor is the only church within a radius of a few dozen miles.

John and the priest walked slowly down the flat hillside, and perhaps because of the events of the morning, there were many more people around the church than usual.

And, to John's surprise, when the people around him saw the two of them, they came over to greet the priest, and they seemed quite familiar with each other.

What's going on?

Fr. Doron didn't always have to be so close to the people of St. Louis Cathedral, who is nearly 300 miles away, knowing that New Orleans is nearly 300 miles away!

Gradually, as the sounds around him gradually increased, John faintly felt a hint of conspiracy, a priest who was about to become a bishop could not live in the cathedral, but ran to this remote country church, and stayed for a while.

What exactly is he going to do?

Is it for the vampires? Or, something else?
