"Where there is interest, there are them." Joe clasped his hands to his chest and watched from afar as Longinus and his party scurried through the crowd.

"What's strange is that today's welcome ceremony, what does it have to do with them?" Joe looked curiously at Longinus, who looked majestic and staggered the people around him by brute force: "No, he's here to trouble Turanda?" ”

Shaking his head, Joe was reluctant to provoke Longinus.

But Joe was a lot taller than the people around him, and his vision was excellent. He glanced in the direction Longinus was heading, and saw Miss Vilenya in the crowd, like a delicate flower.

With her black hair supple behind her, she wore a white whalebone skirt and a pale yellow wide-brimmed hat adorned with bright yellow tulips. Miss Vilenya was dressed up very well today, and her appearance was even more beautiful.

She mingled in the crowd, between a group of aristocratic youths of small status and the children of wealthy merchants, not far from the No. 1 trestle, just behind the military band.

There was only a hundred and fifty feet between her and Yanan.

Joe pouted, this beautiful and lovely young lady, is she here to see Yanan off?

Looking closely, Joe's pupils condensed slightly, and the direction in which Longinus was heading, intentionally or unintentionally, was directed at Miss Vilenya.

Joe parted his hands and pulled the people around him apart.

Now the Vetto family in the port of Tulum is different from the past, and Joe's reputation and status in the port of Tulun have also risen. Joe just made a movement, and before he could use much force, the people around him obediently followed the direction of Joe's finger and made way for a passage.

Joe smiled and nodded to the bigwigs who gave way, and he walked out in three or two steps, across the crowd, to the side of the marching band.

Longinus grabbed a tall man by the shoulders and shoved him aside.

Qiao slammed in front of Longinus, who was stunned, first subconsciously bowed his head, and then he only saw a majestic chest. He was very unaccustomed to slowly raising his head, and then he saw Qiao's fair-skinned face, which radiated a faint light like a jewel, with soft and warm lines.

"Joe Rong Ritu!" Longinus squeezed out Joe's name almost word by word, he subconsciously held the hilt of the giant sword behind his back, and the Mark priest beside him hurriedly stood on tiptoe and hugged his arm, Longinus's pupils flashed with golden light, and then he stopped his movements.

"What are you doing here?" Longinus lowered his arms and roared in a low, extremely unceremonious voice.

"Isn't it normal for me to be here? Hesse is the director of the Council of Seven, the representative of all the merchants and chambers of commerce in the port of Tulun, and he represents the citizens of the entire port of Tulun to welcome the newly appointed consul general of the Kingdom of St. Chia in the port of Tulun, which is a duty that Hesse should and must perform for the development of the port of Tulun and the friendship between the two countries. ”

Joe frowned and tilted his head to look at Longinus, "It's you, what are you doing in the crowd?" ”

Shaking his head, Joe whispered, "On the night of the torture of Fu Del, I heard that several priests in your church also died?" Just like Zahir, dead...... Was it someone who killed him? Did they leak the news of Zahir to the exterminators? ”

With a few sighs, Joe sighed with emotion: "There are so many flies and rats in your church...... As a ...... of the Holy Inquisition Clergy, if you don't catch these silverfish who sell the information of the church and endanger the interests of the church, what are you doing here? ”

"Greeting the Marquis of Turando? Do you have this friendship with him? ”

Joe's series of words blinded Longinus, and he stared at Joe blankly, and after a long time he whispered angrily, "I warned them not to leak out about the bastards being killed...... How do you know? ”

Joe spread his hands and grinned: "It's funny, you gave a gag order, but that night, there were so many Imperial soldiers in the Kaban family's manor, they wouldn't keep it a secret for you...... What are you doing here? ”

Longinus stared at Joe in annoyance, and from the depths of his throat, he muttered muttered muttering, 'My mother is not a Portusse woman who plays with crystal balls'......

After a few snorts, Longinus said stupidly: "Last night, when it was almost midnight, there was another smell of heresy. ”

Longinus took out a handful of gray-white golden oak leaves, and he stared at Joe coldly and said, "In Tulun Harbor, there are still heretics hiding, and the aura they leaked last night is much stronger than the two fools who performed the sacrifice before...... Many ......"

The corners of Joe's eyes twitched.

Last night, almost midnight? If I'm not mistaken, at that point in time, Joe was offering sacrifices to Order's Fair Ram.

Reminiscent of the first time Longinus took out this gray-white golden oak leaf, he was also looking for the so-called heresy in a mess.

Joe hadn't noticed it at first, but in hindsight, the sacrifice of the two hapless Corrupted Spirit believers hadn't even begun...... Rather, it is judged by the time when Longinus was ordered to rush out of the cathedral and search for heretics in the port of Tulum......

That time, it should have been Joe behind the lamprey fish cutting field, in the fish pond, where several demonic killer whales were sacrificed.

The aura of heresy is leaked by the sacrifice to Ram, the balance of order.

But to Joe's peace of mind, these gray-white golden oak leaves do not accuse Joe of being a heretic. Outside the gates of the Golden Anchor Club, this has been demonstrated.

Joe stood in front of Longinus, and the Golden Oak did not react to Joe, but instead found the unlucky little girl of the Caban family who had a deep communication with the believers of the Corrosive Spirit.

"There are many heretics......," Longinus said nervously, "I think you are heretics too." ”

Joe stretched out his finger and poked Longinus's chest hard, and he laughed in a low voice: "You can't talk nonsense, Your Excellency Longinus, in this way, it will definitely destroy the relationship between the church and the port of Tulun, and will affect the status of the church in the hearts of the citizens of the port of Tulun, do you think?" ”

Shrugging his shoulders, Qiao said with a rogue smile: "You know, how can I be the son of the chairman of the Tulun Port Seven Committee." ”

On the new pier No. 3, the Duke of Ross and the Marquis of Turando were smiling and engaged in an awkward conversation without nutrition.

The two intermediate judges of the Tulun Port District Court brought by the Duke of Rose, as well as two civil lawyers, carefully checked the documents brought by the Marquis of Turando, and after making sure that there were no ambiguities and legal loopholes on them, the two nobles signed the documents and used seals to represent the successful completion of this transaction between the two countries.

Then, the Duke of Ross sent out a warm invitation, and the Marquis of Turando cooperated with her with a ignorant expression, and the two of them held up the signed trade documents at the same time, and stood around the high table.

For the first time in the history of mainland Medland, there is a picture of the signing of the arms sales and trade agreement between the two major powers.

With this, the Duke of Ross will undoubtedly be able to make a name for himself again.

Yanan had already stepped onto the battleship, and he stood on the deck, accompanied by several Santa Cia officers, with his hands on the guardrail, and looked at Miss Vilenya with a deep gaze.

Miss Vilenya also looked at him affectionately, and she kept raising her slender white hand and gently pressing it on her heart. I don't know what she means by this action, 'Don't forget me' or 'I won't forget you'!

On the second pier, Yanan's wife and daughter had boarded the boat, and they stood at the bow of the boat, looking at Yanan and Miss Vilenya with gloomy faces. In particular, Yanan's wife, a white handkerchief writhed in her hand, and from time to time there was a 'snort' cracking sound.

Two four-wheeled carriages passed through the crowd and came to the pier.

A group of civilian employees of the Consulate of Santa Sia carefully opened the carriage and sent boxes of luggage onto the traffic boat.

Not only Yanan, but also the Consulate of St. Sia In the mid-autumn bloody incident, all the surviving officials were ordered to return to the country to report on their work. In the future, their jobs will certainly not be in the port of Tulum.

The belongings they had amassed in the port of Tulun, books, letterheads, clothes, boots, and some large daily necessities, including some rare personal collections, were to be returned home with the visiting St. Sia's fleet.

There were a lot of people on the dock, and the road was blocked.

The two four-wheeled carriages carrying the luggage were only lucky enough to break through the crowd, and behind them, dozens of luggage carts pulled out of the long line, slowly and struggling through the crowd.

Joe and Longinus exchanged a few more nonsense, and Longinus flicked his hand in annoyance, bypassed Joe, and continued on his way. The direction he traveled was not only Miss Vilenya, but also the No. 2 trestle.

Joe stuck to Longinus' side like a cowhide plaster, giggling and saying nonsense that made Longinus want to draw his sword and slash indiscriminately. Led by Joe, intentionally or unintentionally, Longinus bypassed Miss Willena and unconsciously approached the second trestle.

A group of white-robed knights surrounded Longinus.

The brothers Lan Mu Hibiscus and Lan Kikyo came out of nowhere, and they were followed by ten sturdy young men wearing iron gray military uniforms, but no epaulettes and military hats.

This group of church knights, many of them participated in the brawl at the entrance of the Golden Anchor Club, they were already extremely sensitive to the iron gray uniform, and when they saw the ten young people behind Lan Mu Hibiscus and Lan Kikyo, their eyes were not right.

In the crowd, the church knight made the first move, and the two sides began to make small movements, gradually pushing and shoving.

In the crowd, some men in civilian clothes began to move closer to this side, gradually blocking the No. 2 trestle.

Their movements and expressions are very natural and smooth, but the consequence is that the density of the crowd near the No. 2 trestle has increased unnaturally.

To the north of the No. 3 new pier, in a small building, the burly man standing in the shadow behind the window sighed lightly: "Was it discovered?" Or was it unintentional? Withdraw it...... The line of Santa Sia cannot be used. ”

"Messingled, it seems that it is time to use the method you said."

"If you succeed, you will be a hero of the Church, and my Lord will not hesitate to give you the power to take revenge."
