Chapter 785

Jimmy had already inspected the house on the spot, and apparently Father Koch should have explained to the two children, they only cleaned the house where they lived, and the rest of the house was not moved, and of course it was not ruled out that the two children were too lazy to toss except for the place where they slept.

Jimmy is also worried, after all, crossing into another world is not a joke, if the two children are tossed around, it is not necessarily impossible to start, but it is a pity that Roland attaches great importance to this door, and does not provide any way to start, only saying that there is no corresponding number to go, but even the wrong number has a certain risk, right?

The key is that the house, if you want to get the two children out, you have to go through the pass of Father Koch, he said before, the family of the two children is his acquaintance, or the believers of the church, he arranged for the two children to have a place to live out of kindness, and it is definitely not possible to drive them out, there must be a proper arrangement.

The other thing is to figure out why the church has such a good location for this house but does not develop or repair it, after all, there is a park next to it, and at least an office area or parking lot can be built here, and even a villa can be made to house some high-rise churches, this is certainly not because the church has too much property and forgot that there is a house here, after all, it is next to the church, they must know.

This is very troublesome, the people Jimmy knows on the side of the church are exorcist priests like Father Rodney, although they have a very high status in the church, but for asset management, it is obvious that they will have complete information at a higher level.

Bishop Jimmy Anderson of the Archdiocese of New York did meet him, but it was Dave who brought him there at the time, and he hadn't been in touch since then, and there was no friendship between them, so he couldn't go to Dave to introduce Bishop Anderson to him for this matter, right? It's too much to take the big guys seriously.

As a last resort, Jimmy had to go to the church again the next day to see Father Rodney, but this time he was not alone, but picked up his godson Elliot on the way, and he hadn't met Elliot for a while.

After praying with Eliot in the church and asking him to wait on the pews for a while, Jimmy went directly to the back of the reception room to see Father Rodney, and this time he made it clear that he wanted Father Rodney to help investigate the house.

Father Rodney was a little surprised, how could Jimmy, who had always been desireless, suddenly interested in that house? Is there any secret there?

In fact, Father Rodney and Father White have investigated and discussed Jimmy many times before, Jimmy seems to be shrewd and capable, witty, and has various advantages, but in fact, this guy is a person of life, has no specific goals, and has no special hobbies, belongs to people who can go to work and live a stable life, he has no opinions, and likes people who have no turbulent days.

Now he's suddenly showing interest in something, and that's funny.

Fr. Rodney: "May I ask why?" ”

Jimmy thought for a moment, and some of the reasons still couldn't be too outrageous: "Just wanted to confirm the reason why the church didn't deal with that house, nothing else." ”

Father Rodney shook his head, and Jimmy could only add, "Well, if it can't be handled there for special reasons, I'd like to contact the relevant departments of the diocese to see if it's possible to transfer the house to me." ”

Father Rodney was stunned, what is the reason for this? "Why?"

Jimmy pouted, "It's a good environment, next to the church and the park, if I have a child with Nia, I still hope to give the little one a better environment to live in, you know, the apartment building I live in now, the house is not big, the environment is not good, Manhattan." ”

Father Rodney's mind was a little confused, but now was not the time to be entangled, he nodded: "I'll help you ask, you wait for my news." ”

Jimmy: "Thank you, Father Rodney. ”

Picking up Elliot from the church, Jimmy took him to the shooting range again, the little guy is much more normal now, and his performance at school has returned to normal, and the psychological shadow left by that kidnapping should have been resolved.

The little guy is still very happy, after all, for him, Jimmy, the godfather, is the best, from picking him up to the church, back to pulling out the gun, has always been very excited, although there are many opportunities to play with guns, but there is definitely no godfather to play alone.

Elliot of course uses the .22 series that his father Alex Green bought for him, and Jimmy still uses his own pistol, but in addition to teaching Elliot how to play guns, they also play some interesting games, such as throwing a wine bottle and shooting moving targets.

This kind of game is actually the most suitable to play the flying saucer throwing machine, whether it is one-way or two-way, the distance and speed of throwing the flying saucer are much faster, and the double-barreled shotgun is generally used, and the extended barrel pursues accuracy, but the 12-gauge caliber used by the double-barreled shotgun, the recoil is a bit too much for Elliot, so now I can only make do with it first, and the finished beer bottle is thrown into the air by Jimmy, and Elliot shoots, and if he misses, Jimmy will make up for it himself......

This kind of game must not be expected to be played by Alex Green with Elliot, except for Jimmy who can do this kind of sassy operation, everyone else must just let Elliot stand behind the table and aim at a fixed target in the distance, at most add a small activity such as mouse hunting or pheasant.

While Jimmy was playing with Elliot, Nia didn't go to work, but pushed Roland to the shooting club.

Jimmy's event today was scheduled yesterday, and of course Nia knew about it, but when they went to the police station to bring Roland back, they forgot to ask Roland if she could teach her how to practice guns, so Nia had to come to the door by herself to communicate.

Roland didn't refuse, Jimmy's words yesterday were obviously refused, and he had to start with the people around him, so he had to get familiar with it first.

Roland's teaching is completely different from Jimmy's, although the gunmen are all men and have no experience in teaching women to use guns, but after all, he has been using the revolver for decades and has a lot of experience, so it must be no problem to teach Nia, and it must be much better than what Jimmy taught, Jimmy is more about the muscle memory that his predecessor has practiced for many years plus the insights he brings from using the revolver all year round.

Although Roland can't teach standing, it's no problem to help Nia adjust her posture in a wheelchair, from the holding posture to the standing position, and the arm force is explained in all directions, although Nia can't remember so much at a time, but she can always learn it if she learns a few more times, but don't expect her to do things like destroying demons like Jimmy and Roland, just protect herself, which is what Roland realized after seeing Jimmy give Nia the revolver.

Teaching with heart and being a coach in general are completely different things, and after just practicing for a while, Nia felt that Roland was much more professional and better than Jimmy, and her shooting percentage was much higher.

.

The 45ACP bullet is what Roland usually uses, even if he is in a wheelchair, he still has no problem shooting, and he demonstrates shooting while teaching, which is more careful than when he taught Jimmy to use a gun, so let's brush up some favorability first.

Jimmy played with Elliot for a while, shooting is not something that can be moved continuously for a long time, the muscles will not be able to bear it, and it must be necessary to rest, and when he rested, Jimmy also cared about Elliot's learning by the way.

Alex Green is an advisor to the mayor, and it is impossible for this kind of person to let Eliot go to public schools, and the education situation of private schools is far greater than that of public schools, whether it is learning content or teaching style, so there is no need to worry about these children wasting time and life like children in public schools.

However, they did not stay at the range of the farm for long, and returned to New York after lunch, and Jimmy received a call from Father Rodney, so he could not wait too long.

After sending Elliot home, Jimmy went straight to the church to see Father Rodney, who did not explain anything to Jimmy, but gave Jimmy an old file that looked like it was some years old.

Jimmy opened it and looked at it, but he still understood the origin of the house.

Decades ago, a wealthy believer donated the park to the church, which was once a large estate that was no longer inhabited by the wealthy after an accidental fire killed his family.

After the church took over, it cleaned up the burned house on the manor and repurposed it into an open park.

As property ownership was transferred to the church, the New York City Planning Board and District Board did not refuse the adjustment here, and the house next door served as a residence for those who managed the park by the church.

For some time afterward, the place was normal, but after a few years, there were a series of disappearances in the house, and the church people even found a case of paranormal here, where a resentful thing would attack anyone who entered the house.

The church cleaned up the spirit at a cost, but the people who entered the house disappeared for years.

The church has been inspected several times in a row and has found no problems, so it can only be put on hold for the time being, and no more people will be arranged.

The inertia of some things is unavoidable, and after this place is deserted, the church even forgets about it. For them, there are a lot of assets, and pointing fingers at things that have not been handled by others before will only embarrass some people, so even after decades, there are no more people to deal with them here.

Jimmy closed the file: "So, is there an investigation behind the disappearance of those people?" ”

Father Rodney shook his head: "There is no result, which is why this place will be abandoned." ”

Jimmy: "So...... Is there a possibility to transfer this to me. ”

Fr. Rodney: "It's not up to me to decide, Jimmy, there's so much going on in that house after all, I think maybe you can choose somewhere else." ”

Jimmy took two deep breaths, thought about it for a moment, and shook his head: "Father, help me ask, I can rebuild that house, it's deserted after all, isn't it?" Besides, even if something does happen, I think I can fix it. ”

Father Rodney sighed and nodded, "I can help you ask, but I can't guarantee it, you know, this is New York." ”

Jimmy: "Thank you, thank you so much. Fr. Rodney. ”

Before leaving, Jimmy took out his checkbook and donated a sum of money to the church, and of course it was up to Father Rodney to know that the money was donated by Jimmy.

When he got home, Jimmy was very strange to see Nyoa resting at home, he thought that Nyoa was at work today, Nya happily told Jimmy about Roland teaching her to practice guns, and it worked very well, she already wanted to use that revolver as her spare gun, just like Jimmy.

But there is still a trouble with this matter, that is, this gun is now strictly said to belong to the black gun, there is no registration and no number, as a police officer, Nia still needs some procedures to register this gun, but since she has this idea, of course Jimmy can only help, fortunately, his two guns have been registered before, or use the name of the previous studio to register, but it takes a little time.

After a period of time, Roland was able to get out of the wheelchair, and after a hospital examination, as long as he did not do strenuous exercise, ordinary walking and standing would basically not have much problem, but he still needed more rest, and the muscle injury still needed a long time to recover.

Soon Jimmy's vacation is over, and he's back in his office moldy.

The case in Los Angeles is over, and they are far more efficient than Jimmy had been, as they had found Mrs. Harriton's lawyer, Sebastian, who had been in hiding for a while after leaving Los Angeles, and when he went to contact Mrs. Harriton's family, he was spotted by FBI surveillance agents who stayed there and were arrested while he was staying at a motel.

After the information provided by Jimmy to the Los Angeles office matched Sebastian's interrogation records, the Los Angeles office successfully closed the chain of clues, and the death of the shareholder of the Hareton Foundation was successfully solved, which was set up by Mrs. Hareton and Sebastian contacted professionals.

It's just that the murderer can't be found, and even the intermediary that Sebastian contacted has disappeared.

In any case, most of the case has been solved, and the rest has been put on hold, including Mr. Hareton's yacht bombing, and they will have to make certain trade-offs in order to maintain the normalization of the elections in the future.

And for Jimmy, the good news is not only that the case is closed, Father Rodney also gave good news, the church agreed to transfer the house, but not the transfer of property rights, only the right to rent and renovate the use of the house.
