Chapter 0249 - The Exposed Impostor
Maria lives in an apartment, and she has now stopped taking her medications, which she has hidden from the Holy See. "Cybertron, do what you think is right, I don't want to be a burden to you. "She's ready to die.
At this time, someone pushed the door open and came in, knelt in front of Mary with an anxious expression, and grabbed Maria's palm. "Mom, Cybertron is back, I'm sorry for the delay in the past, and now I'm coming to see you. ”
Maria looked at the child kneeling in front of her, Cybertron, and stroked Cybertron's hair. "Son, what the hell is going on, tell me. ”
Cybertron got up and sat down beside Maria. "I have gained the dignity of the Holy See, and now I can stay in the Holy See and you can enjoy a better life here, it is all true. He grabbed his mother's hand. "Our lives will be better and we will live the life of the rich. He seemed quite excited, and the average person should be happy to live the life of a rich man.
Maria withdrew her hand, and in a quiet tone she seemed to be reminiscing. "Child, remember what you said when you were a child, when you enter the Holy See and become a servant of God, you will never rejoice in living a good life, but you just want the people of God to enjoy peace and will persevere for this for the rest of your life, so you have refused many rewards from the Holy See and lived in an apartment that is not too big but strong enough to withstand the wind and cold. ”
But there's no shame in improving the quality of life for God's people at the same time, all of which I have earned through hard work. Cybertron snuggled up to his mother. "You don't have to be grateful to anyone for that, it doesn't hurt anyone. ”
"But there's always something wrong here, don't you think?" said Mary's voice, which became a little reproachful. "You shouldn't forget your favorite rag dolls, you said you would take them with you wherever you go. ”
Cybertron paused. "There are a lot of rag dolls in the Holy City, they are well made enough, I will buy a lot of them to replace them, don't worry. ”
"But those rag dolls are made by my own hands, and you receive them every year for your birthday, and then you collect them, and that means something special to you. "Mary is quite stubborn.
"Now that I'm older, I don't need those rag dolls, we have to look forward, let the old things go away from us, we have to welcome a new life. Cybertron looked a little agitated.
"So you're not Cybertron, only Cybertron understands the special meaning of those rag dolls. Mary got up, and her cloudy eyes suddenly brightened and sharpened. "You will never abandon them wherever you go, and Cybertron will never forget to remind me to take those rag dolls with me when they take me to the Holy City. ”
It seems that something is wrong, it is exposed, and it has been revealed on the way back, this is the reason why the old woman is reluctant to reveal any secrets, Cybertron's face changes rapidly, and soon after the true face is revealed, it is Anruida, who looks at the old woman angrily. "Old woman, I have to tell you that your child has betrayed the Holy See, and he is now a wanted criminal of the Holy See. ”
Maria looked at the guy in front of her, the same guy who had asked her about Cybertron's background, and she expected things to change, but she didn't expect things to be like this. "Cybertron, what did he do?"
An Ruida's face was hideous, and he said coldly: "He killed the believers of the Holy See, burned several churches, is an enemy of the Holy See, is the devil, as his mother, you should tell me everything about the devil." ”
"Yes, there must be something wrong with the Holy See. Mary bowed her head and muttered, "He is a kind and honest child, and he will never do this for no reason, let alone the devil." ”
Stubborn old woman, Anruida thought to herself. "Well, it looks like you're reluctant to tell me anything about Cybertron, so I'll have to kill you, and it's a punishment for your son. ”
Mary closed her eyes. "Come on, I do. ”
The stubborn and brave old woman is not even afraid of death, this is a bit unreasonable, no one will be so calm about death, but the old woman in front of him was beyond his expectations, Anruida grabbed Maria's arm and made a slight noise. "Don't think about dying, it's not that simple, I have to let you live well, and then let your precious son come to the Holy City, and I will let your mother and son go to the guillotine together. ”
Anrida left the house in a fit of rage, and Mary fell on her knees and prayed to God. "May God bless my child, he is by no means a devil. After that, she struggled to get up, lay down on the bed, closed her eyes, and because she stopped taking the medication, her body was quite weak and could not hold on.
Not long after Anruida left, news came that Maria had died. "Damn, there are people who are not even afraid of death, this world is crazy. ”
"What should we do then?" the Holy See personnel asked for countermeasures.
"Bury her, think of other ways, don't let the news get out, otherwise it will affect the credibility of the Holy See. "Anrada has to think of a new way.
Without the retaliation of the Thieves Assassin Alliance, the clean-up plan was vigorous, almost terrifying the underworld, Edgar's underworld shrank rapidly, and the personnel dropped sharply, almost to the point of unsustainability, during which Edgar had asked the gangsters in the underworld to assassinate those military bosses, but with little success, the gangsters had no way to compare with those smart members of the Thieves Assassin Alliance, and almost every assassination failed.
"What to do, if I continue like this, my underground world will be over soon, Santos, this madman, he has completely lost his mind, and now he doesn't want me to apologize, but wants to destroy me completely. Edgar anxiously walked around the room, having completely lost his grip on the situation.
Nasri looked at Edgar walking around the room and cried out in pain, "It would be great if you could calm down now, my head is about to be stunned by you, the Wizarding Guild has dealt me the worst blow compared to you, and now my League of Rogue Assassins is finished." ”
"We should reach out to Santos and Tucker and apologize to them, apologize sincerely, to avoid a worse situation, maybe they are already trying to cut our heads off. Nasri chattered.
"Apologizing is tantamount to surrender, tantamount to admitting defeat, Santos will definitely tell everyone within the mysterious organization about these things, and when the time comes, we will become the laughing stock of the entire organization, we will never be able to raise our heads, and even the most basic right to speak will be deprived, just like two cats who are about to die, no one cares. Edgar vetoed Nasri's proposal. "Come to think of it, we were excluded from the mysterious organization at that time, and I would never surrender anyway. ”
Nasri was silent, it was true, there were no friends within the mysterious organization, only interests, and those despicable fellows would definitely be like Edgar said. "So what do we do. ”
Edgar was stunned for a moment, he didn't know what to do, and now he didn't have any way to counter Santos, like a poor worm.
Someone pushed the door in. "Two gentlemen, someone wants to see you. ”
"Who is it?" At this time, whether it is Nasri or Edgar, what they want to hear is Santos's name, as long as Santos comes to the door, it will not be counted as their voluntary apology.
"It was a little boy named Abel. "Someone said.
"I don't have time to see the damn kid, tell him to get away. Edgar waved his hand in disappointment. "Don't let people bother me, I'm busy. ”
The visitor did not leave, but hesitated. "But he said there was a solution to the problem you were experiencing, and he said so. ”
A child said that he could solve the current difficulties, and Edgar would never believe these nonsense. "Hell, didn't you hear me, get rid of him. ”
The people were leaving, but Nasri didn't think so, and now they didn't have any strategy to deal with it, even if there was even the slightest possibility, they had to seize it, he got up and said, "Let him in." ”
Edgar looked at Nasri in surprise. "Do you think that a child will have a solution to the current predicament, don't be funny, unless you are a fool, you will pin your hopes on a ...... named Ya" He forgot his name.
"Abel......" Nasri reminded, helplessly: "But we really can't do it at the moment, we won't waste too much time when we meet, if he can't come up with an effective solution, just teach him a lesson." ”
Time goes back a little earlier......
The two girls are missing, Abel's mission fails, and he doesn't complete the mission left by Antonucci, so he blames himself quite for the incident.
Downing looked at the child, the only character in the underworld, and the only microphone, now that Edgar and Nasri were almost exhausted, according to the original plan he could not contact them so much, but he had to save the two girls, so he had to negotiate with these two, this was a great opportunity.
"Abel, I know you're tasked with protecting Linda and Taylor, and now that they're gone, you must be quite remorseful. Downing walked out the door and stroked the child's back.
"I'm going to get them back. Abel swears.
"yes, where do you want to find it?" Tang Ning motioned for the child to squat beside him, and the two sat down on the steps. "Do you know where they went?"
Abel was silent, he really didn't know.
"If I knew where they were, and had a way to keep them safe, would you do me a small favor? Downing discussed with the child.
"Of course I do. Abel agreed, and this was the whole thing.
"You say there's a solution to my dilemma?" Edgar looked at the child who had been brought in, his face full of doubt, such a child would only be an idiot would believe what he said.
Nasri looked at the child and asked, "Are you sure we're not having fun?"
Abel was quite brave, like a seasoned veteran. "That's right, I have a way, I promise with my head. ”
Edgar motioned for the men standing in the doorway to leave and return to their seats. "Tell me about the kind of trouble we're in. "If the other party doesn't even know their situation, then the other party must be lying.
Abel recalled what Downing had told him. "The League of Thieves and Assassins has been wiped out by the Wizarding Guild, the underworld has been wiped out by the military, and now there are not many people left, and those gangsters are trying to find a way to get rid of their ties with the gangs, and there are not many people left in your organization. ”
