The priest continued: "I command you, before the Lord, to confess any reason that hinders your union. Mandy Juliet, would you like this man to be your husband and enter into a marriage contract with him? Love Him, care for Him, respect Him, accept Him, and remain faithful to Him to the end of your life, whether it is sickness or health, or any other reason? ”

"I do." Mandy looked at Yu Ming and replied.

The priest also asked Yu Ming, Yu Ming looked at Mandy, when will you help me report my real name? Yu Ming nodded: "I am willing." ”

The priest was again, and asked from the stands: "Are you willing to testify to their marriage vows?" ”

"I do." A voice sounded, and Yu Ming and Mandy turned their heads to see that it was a drunkard in his thirties. Drink your wine and go, join in the fun.

Then there was the exchange of rings, and Yu Ming and Mandy exchanged investigator rings with each other. After a pile of nonsense, the priest said: "I declare you husband and wife, and the groom can kiss the bride." ”

The two kissed without barriers, and it was done. The priest pulled his legs to leave, but Yu Ming's eyes and hands were quick, and he knelt down and hugged the priest's thigh: "Father, I am guilty." ”

"We are all sinners," said the priest. ”

Yu Ming cried: "I want to go to that ......" What is that called, Yu Ming looked at the two small rooms next to him.

"......," the priest asked Yu Ming.

"I want to go...... Let's talk to you about it. ”

Mandy immediately felt the urge to vomit blood, and whispered, "Confession room." ”

"Excuse me, Father, I'm really guilty."

The priest looked at Mandy, and then at Yu Mingdao: "Child, you ...... haode。 "He would have said that you shouldn't confess in front of your new wife.

There was a chair in the confession room, Yu Ming entered the room, and the priest said, "Child." Gone wrong. ”

"I'm sorry." Yu Ming changed rooms.

A voice came from the earbuds: "Crack the security system." ”

Yu Ming said: "Father, I am guilty, I started to cheat on my classmates when I was five years old, I borrowed a lollipop from classmate A to add a bite to B, and exchanged it for two cookies." I gave a cookie to classmate A, I was guilty, I took the lollipop and a cookie. ”

"Father, I'm a liar, but I don't want to be a liar, but my adoptive father is a liar. After the disappearance of my adoptive mother. I began my unbearable career as a liar......" Yu Ming opened the cola tab in the inner pocket of the dress, inserted it into the straw and said while drinking: "When I was eight years old, I told my teacher that my adoptive father was dying, and I hoped he could change his transcript. so that my adoptive father may die blindly. After spending a winter break, the matter came to light. I've learned that there must be room for lying. At the age of nine. I scored 17 points in the Chinese test, and I changed 1 to 7 and then to 9. My adoptive father saw through it at a glance and said, "Boy, don't think I don't know that you only scored 77 points." Ten years old. I found out that I got 20 points, which made me sad because I couldn't change 2 to any passing number, and I cried for a long time. My tears fell on the report card, and Yu Ming thought of a good solution. While crossing a single-plank bridge, I bravely fell into the water. ”

The priest interjected: "I'm curious, your adoptive father didn't see your grades and won't ask the teacher?" ”

"Father, I'm guilty, I fell overboard not with my own transcript, but with the transcript of my tablemate. After falling into the water, I was lucky that I couldn't see the name on the report card, and the results were still very clear. Yu Ming took a bite of chocolate and said: "At the age of eleven, with my efforts, I finally only scored seven points, and I happily filled in nine in front of seven." At the age of twelve, I found that the revised grades would be exposed, so I began to work hard. ”

"That's right, kid." Father Raqqa was pleased.

"I started trying to cheat on exams." Yu Ming continued: "I found that Xiaopang has a shortcoming, he writes his name every time he finishes the question, so I exchange my test paper with him. But to my disbelief, Chubby got a perfect score after redoing the question, and I only had a score of 99. Afterwards, Chubby thanked me very much, and he played a role in my future test results that cannot be underestimated. I learned a truth, good people are rewarded. ”

"When I went to junior high school, I was miserable, especially English. Father, I was guilty, and I began to encourage my classmates to steal the exam papers. After the test papers were in hand, I sold them to many students, and the students were very happy, and the teachers were also happy to see that we got good results. I'm glad to be able to bring happiness to so many people. In the second year of junior high school, a new student who transferred to the school reported us, and we have been putting the responsibility on the classmate who stole the exam papers, in order not to be beaten collectively, he bravely endured the pain alone, we are very grateful to him, and bought him a pack of cigarettes as a reward. ”

……

The earplug said, "No hand-copied Bibles were found in the safe. ”

Mandy asked, "What about the rest of the world?" ”

The earbuds replied, "No." ”

"Am I mistaken?" Mandy frowned.

The door of the confession room opened, and the priest stumbled out, grabbed Mandy's hand, looked at Mandy with tears in his eyes and said, "Son, I was wrong, you shouldn't marry him, I hope you can get a divorce as soon as possible." ”

"Ah......" Mandy watched the priest leave, and turned his head to see Yu Ming coming out of the confessional room, refreshed.

Yu Ming said: "Mandy, don't say it, this thing is really useful." Talking about things makes people feel a lot more comfortable. ”

"But the priest seems to be a little unwell." Mandy asked curiously, "What do you say?" ”

"Well...... Something in school. In my junior year, the priest was rude to interrupt me and tell me not to waste the Lord and his time. Yu Ming said: "It's like I'm hopeless." ”

Mandy laughed, "It's like you're still saved." ”

"What, I didn't find anything?" Yu Ming asked.

Mandy frowned: "Maybe I'm wrong......"

"It's not your fault." Yu Ming said: "I know where the things are. ”

"You?" Mandy shook her head: "It's your first time in the United States, your first time in this town, your first time in church, right?" How do you possibly know where something is? ”

Yu Ming said: "It's in the hands of the priest." ”

Mandy was stunned and said, "No, his Bible is brand new." ”

"Wrap up a new skin." Yu Ming said: "The priest is a very devout Catholic, and he hopes that he can serve the residents of the town with something more powerful. I don't think he stole the Bible for collection, but for use. While you were praying, I used my phone to look up some information. It was discovered that before the Bible was stolen, there had been a number of cases of Mexican smugglers attacking the town's residents. I think he thinks it's the Lord who has neglected this. So I went and got an old Bible. You see, the priest doesn't feel the slightest guilt for stealing the old Bible, and it reminds me that you don't feel the slightest guilt about lying to the priest in order to recover the Bible. Both the priest and you think you are doing the right thing. Since this is the case, there is no reason not to use hand-copying the Bible for weddings, masses, and other activities. ”

Mandy asked, "Didn't you say it earlier?" ”

"When we were married, I saw the disharmony between the old and the new pages and covers of the Bible, and I figured it out after I went to the dark room and thought about it behind closed doors." Yu Ming said: "But I'm not sure, and I can't destroy your jihua." It wasn't until the helper you hired said he hadn't found the Bible that I was sure of it. Mandy. ”

"Huh?"

"The priest's Bible is in his hands, and now you have to find a way to snatch the Bible from the priest's hands." Yu Ming was a little gloating.

Mandy hesitated, she was someone who rarely hesitated. After thinking for a while, he picked up the phone and connected: "I am an independent investigator, and I already know the whereabouts of the Bible, but the Bible is used by a dedicated priest as a treasure of God to serve the residents. Personally, I strongly discourage you from taking the Bible back and storing it, so you might as well leave it to him to use. ”

Mandy hung up and said, "They asked me for the identity of the priest. They will explain to the priest and get the Bible back. ”

Yu Ming said: "This is not good. Good things didn't happen. The commission is not completed. ”

"I also refused, and I thought that instead of enshrined the Bible in the Holy See, it would be better to let him play his part."

Yu Ming said: "I have an idea. ”

"Huh?"

Yu Ming said: "You can go and make a fake Bible, and then swap it with the real Bible." In this way, the priest thought that he still had a Bible with divine power, and the Holy See took back the true Bible. You get paid and by the way, you improve your reputation within the organization. No one has anything to lose, everyone is happy. ”

"......" Mandy has a toothache, and it is undeniable that Yu Ming proposed a good solution to the problem. But these things related to her faith, and she couldn't tell if it was against her faith. Mandy asked, "Is there any other way?" ”

"Yes, get some psychedelics, and tell the priest that the Lord thinks he is guilty of stealing, so he takes the Bible and gives it to his master."

Mandy saw Yu Ming's expression on the other side of the river watching the fire while drinking Coke, and said mischievously: "Yu Ming, I want to keep my surname after we get married." ”

"En......" Yu Ming was stunned for a few seconds, and then smiled: "Whatever." ”

"Aren't you worried about getting married?"

"Last night I quietly looked for the relevant law, and we were only married in the religious sense, not in the legal sense. The marriage certificate given to us by the priest is a souvenir, and in order to legally get married, we need to take the certificate given to us by the priest to the government notary office to fill out the form and make an appointment with a witness to sign it. If there is no wedding, the government has a chapel for us to use, and we need to fill in passports and other documents, and importantly, foreigners who get married in the United States need to provide their own domestic unmarried certificates, etc., and the procedures are not generally complicated. Unless it's Las Vegas. ”

Mandy laughed: "But I'm Australian. ”

Yu Ming also smiled: "I also checked Australia, and I need at least one unmarried certificate." ”

"Partner, you're going too far, don't you want to marry me?" Mandy asked dissatisfied.

"Partner, do you want us to divorce in a few days?" Yu Ming said: "I have to go back to Washington, you have decided whether or not." ”

"A manuscript Bible is seen by others as an antique with value, but in his hands it is considered the grace of the Lord." Mandy stood up and said, "I'll send you back to Washington first." ”

"I'm glad you think so." Yu Ming sighed: "But he doesn't think so." Yu Ming looked at the drunkard who was sleeping on the back of the chair in front of him, and Yu Ming looked at the drunkard and asked, "Right?" ”

"......" The drunkard did not react. (To be continued......)
