Chapter 153: It's at your fingertips
Next to the excavator was a man with a shovel, who glanced in amazement at the priest standing in front of the pit, and then at Lise Murray, who was still lying on the coffin below.
"Hey, come out."
Liz didn't answer, just stared at the coffin with a blank face, still remembering the past in her mind.
Her mother is a drug addict and an alcoholic, but it doesn't affect her love for her mother, she still misses her mother at that time, the warm embrace at that time, she has wanted to go back to that time countless times, but it's a pity......
Lise rubbed the coffin.
None of this matters, the important thing is that when the mother is there, she is not a child without a home.
And now, when her mother lies here, she is already homeless, a wild child in other people's mouths.
It feels terrible, she doesn't know what to do in the future, is she going to bow down to life or continue to think about the meaning of life?
"Hey! Come out! ”
The man stole a glance at the unmoved priest and reminded again.
"We're going to get ready to bury the pit!"
Liz pursed her lips and looked up at the man, "Where are you going to put the tombstone?" ”
The man shook his head and stuck his shovel in the ground, his words chilling.
"There are no tombstones here, and there is no place to put them!"
Lis's face was expressionless, but her eyes were already showing a hint of helplessness, and if there was no tombstone, she would never be able to find the exact location after a week.
"Hey, it's really time for you to come out!"
The man continued to shout and waved his hand at the excavator, and the driver on it also glanced at the priest, who had not moved all this time, but had just watched quietly, and began to drive the excavator forward.
York's afterglow glanced at the advancing excavator, which was obviously forcing the kid out.
Looking at Lis, who sat up silently in the grave pit, with a silent face, Yorks reached out and touched his arms, and finally found a few banknotes, and finally spoke.
"Go find a tombstone and plant it in me."
As soon as the words fell, it attracted the attention of the three people present.
Liz was stunned, staring at the strange priest, her eyes fluctuating for the first time.
The man holding the shovel looked even more surprised, and looked at the girl sitting in the coffin in the pit, and then at the priest who suddenly handed him the banknote.
"What? Don't have enough money? York said calmly.
"Nope."
The man and the driver of the excavator looked at each other, then took the bill from the priest's hand, put it in his back pants pocket, and said to the girl in the pit.
"Someone is helping, there is a place to put it this time, wait, I'll go find a tombstone."
Unceremoniously, the man waved his hand at the excavator driver and walked towards the cemetery administration together.
Only a priest and a girl were left in place.
Liz sat on top of the coffin, looked down at her dirty shoes, and was silent for a moment, then looked up at the priest and spoke.
"Why are you helping me?"
"Because I'm a priest." ”
This was a good reason, Liz was silent on the spot, and finally said such a sentence.
"You're a good priest."
"Of course, I think so too." Yorkes smiled, "Come up, child, let's pray together for your loved ones?" ”
Liss didn't know why, but she felt that the priest's voice had a convincing charm, and she obediently got up and climbed up.
Yorks looked at Lis, who was a few steps away, and motioned to stand next to him.
"Come to me."
Lis's face was calm, and she looked at the gentle-looking priest and walked over obediently.
"Who is inside?" York asked.
"My mom." Liz put her hands in her pockets, staring at the coffin inside the grave, so young that she didn't know where to know the process, and then spoke.
"The name is Kelly Lynch."
This surprised Yorks, but also calmly said, "Let's pray for your mother, Lady Kelly." ”
As he spoke, York spread out the Bible in his hand and repeated the prayer he had just read for the deceased in the Reed apartment complex.
“……”
This time the target is the mother of a child.
In the middle of the reading, the two caretakers of the Nas cemetery came over with a tombstone, and they did not bother the priest and the girl who were reciting the prayer, but looked at each other and stood behind the priest as participants.
At the end of the reading, Yorkes closed his Bible and made a cross on his chest to conclude the ceremony.
"Amen!"
York looked at Liz next to him, only to find that the other party was quietly looking at the grave, and the eyes were already sliding down his calm face with tears already flowing down his face.
Seeing this, York looked at the cemetery manager behind him and nodded.
The two of them came back to the tombstone, and together they carried the tombstone and inserted it in the position where York gave way.
Liz finally reacted, silently wiping away her tears and staring at the tombstone planted in front of her.
It happened to have her mother's name and birth date written on it, etc., which was simple, but it would allow her to find a place in the future.
"That's it, right?" The man who had been holding the shovel looked at the silent Liz, but Liz did not answer, and he looked at the priest again.
York nodded.
"Okay," the man clapped his hands, let the driver next to him get on the excavator, grabbed the shovel that had been stuck in the ground and began to fill the hole.
Airplanes!
The excavator also began to advance, and one of the two combined, and the coffin in the grave had slowly disappeared, buried by a clammy mound.
Lis, still with her calm demeanor, stared at the grave with her hands in her pockets, and finally looked at the priest.
"Thank you......"
Although there was no expression on his face, his eyes finally changed slightly.
York just smiled,
"It's okay,"
This in itself is something that can be done at hand, and it doesn't take much energy.
After speaking, looking at the grave pit that had been filled, Yorks was about to leave, but after thinking about it, he still looked at Lis, who was thin and dirty, and spoke.
"Kid, if you still need help, come to Pluto Church and find me."
Seeing Lis's eyes widen and her expression fluctuated because of these words, York smiled and strode away with his Bible in his arms.
Leaving Liz alone to watch, she thought of something, and a longing suddenly appeared in her eyes, and she bit her lip......
York, who was already in the driver's seat of the Ford Raptor, didn't know this, and even if he did, he didn't mind, because for him, it was just a good thing.
Of course, this is also a leisurely with strength, if he doesn't have the strength, he doesn't have the leisure to meddle in things.
Starting the car, York stepped on the gas pedal and drove the car in the direction of Pluto Church, leaving the area of Nas Cemetery.
At this moment.
In a luxurious manor, something happened that made Ms. Camille, who had just returned home, feel distressed and pity.
Her daughter, Bellamy, suddenly became incontinent and looked sluggish.
"Madam, Miss, she ......" The nanny next to her was a little flustered and shouted unprepared.
"It's okay, I'll do it." Ms. Camille walked over, not disgusted at all, and picked up her daughter directly, and decided to take her to the psychiatrist tomorrow......
