Volume 1 The Winter of Halma Chapter 38 Serendipitous Encounter

Jobble Street, downstairs of a slum apartment.

Several police officers in civilian clothes were recording the confessions of the residents around the apartment, and from time to time they were reminded of the precautions.

"Captain, it's been dealt with. Carmen sorted through her notes and bowed her head to report.

"Well, you're in charge of getting Arnold to a nearby orphanage. ”

Chade said gloomily.

Everyone in the purifier team was also in a low mood at this time, Carmen nodded, and led the little boy Arnold to prepare to leave.

Carmen had barely taken two steps by the boy's hand when a strange expression appeared on her face.

"Andu?"

Carmen's low voice instantly caught Chad's attention, and he walked with a heavy face.

As Chad walked towards Andu, the movements of the entire purifier team immediately changed.

Matt put away his smile and quickly dispersed in seriousness, with York and Tolan following behind Chad, and Barry standing not far away, seemingly ready to rush up at any moment.

Andu looked at the reactions of these people in front of him with some inexplicability.

Do you need such a big battle?

Did they find out?

Andu said with a smile on his face and spread his hands.

"What a coincidence!"

Chad reached out to stop the team members who were about to move behind him, and motioned for Andu not to move on.

"Attorney Ron's family moved out. ”

Chad said in a cold tone.

"Really, when?"

Andu looked at Chade in surprise, and then showed a strange look.

"That's what you're for?"

After saying that, he also pointed to Barry, a member of the Purifier Team who was glaring at him.

Cha De looked at him indifferently, and the ice slag could fall out of his mouth with coldness.

"The demon of that day was not at all what you said, entering the villa from the outside!"

After finding out that Andu was lying the day before yesterday, he originally planned to return immediately, but under Tolan's persuasion, he changed it to go again the next day.

That is, yesterday.

"I went to Attorney Ron's villa, where all that was left was empty rooms and furniture that had not had time to be moved. ”

Chade's eyebrows were very dense, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were particularly obvious as he squinted, and he looked at Andu with a hint of playfulness, and said in an intriguing tone.

"I'm curious, why would they be in such a hurry to move out?"

Andu looked at Chade suspiciously, thought seriously for a while, and said with a serious expression.

"Didn't you tell them to move quickly?"

There was a hint of frustration on Cha's indifferent expression.

"Did you just listen to me?"

Chade looked at Andu, as if talking to himself, his expression was still so indifferent, just like Andu when he saw him for the first time, rigorous, serious, but not good at talking.

"I guess so. ”

Andu bowed his head in thought, then waved his hand with a strange look.

"You don't think I told them to move out, do you?"

There was a gap in the conversation between the two, and neither side continued the topic, and the scene was a little cold for a while.

Cha De's eyes didn't see any thoughts, he was not burly, he stood there, but he had an unusually calm and heavy momentum, his long brown hair was obviously not long and unkempt, and it looked a little messy, but it added a bit of special charm unique to middle-aged men.

"Hopefully we'll see each other again. ”

Chad waved his hand, and did not choose to continue arguing with Andu, and prepared to leave with the purifier team.

As he passed Andu, Chade deliberately slowed down, looked down at the church emblem on his chest, and gave him a meaningful look.

"Hopefully, in the future, we will not be enemies. ”

Chade's voice came from a short distance behind, and the trademark smile reappeared on Andu's face.

Isn't it just that wonderful about some things?

Andu shook his head and continued to rush to church.

Andu basically spent the morning cleaning, or in other words, the missionary's job was to clean the church in addition to going out to preach.

But how could he be a newcomer to such a missionary work?

After lunch, Andu and Walkley chatted for a while, and the fanatics of this church stayed in the church almost every day and rarely went out.

"Why didn't you join the Purifier Squad?"

Andu suddenly thought of what happened in the morning and asked casually.

"How dangerous is that?"

Walkley answered this question decisively, he looked at Andu and thought about it, and said sincerely.

"I'm telling you, don't think about joining the Purifier squad in the future. ”

"What's wrong?" Andu looked at him strangely.

"Do you know how many Purifier squads die each year?"

Walkley said abruptly, his right hand stretched out, and two fingers popped out.

"Double digits!" he said with some sadness, "There are only seven or eight purifier squads in the entire Halma, and there are only forty or fifty people in total, and nearly a quarter of them die on the mission every year. ”

"Halma's evil creatures are so rampant?" Andu looked at Walkley in horror.

Although he knew that the evil creatures in this world were also rampant, he was still shocked when he heard what Walkley said!

It's just a fifth-tier small city, and there are still so many church personnel dying on the mission every year, so how many hidden evil things should there be?

No wonder Cha looked at me like that this morning......

Andu suddenly understood the other party's approach.

For Chad, he may be one of those potential enemies, and it may even be the presence that will kill his teammates in the future.

"There are more evil things than we think. ”

Walkley put the Bible on the table and sighed, "They are far more cunning than we think, and the higher the rank, the wiser they are." ”

"The first-order evil creatures are better, they don't have much wisdom, but when they reach the second order, they are no different from normal people's thinking. ”

Andu listened to the real situation told by Walkley, and felt more and more in his heart how dangerous the world really was, and his mind gradually became more and more complicated.

Walkerley said all this that Ando didn't know, after all, he hadn't really come into contact with the church in this world in his two memories, and the difference between games and reality could not be expressed in words.

Andu found that what he knew was actually not very useful at all at this time, and it was far less reliable than wearing a few more card rings.

Originally, he just wanted to take care of himself and the people around him, but with this period of contact, whether it was Roy, Walkley, or even Chad, he was greatly touched.

In this world, evil creatures are real, everyone can encounter a threat to their life at any time, and the most terrifying thing is that no one can predict when this danger will come.

In addition to these potential dangers, a large number of poor people also live in the heat of the water, desperately struggling to live a better life in this world, and sometimes this beauty is just a full meal.

I don't know when it began, this world is no longer the original illusory existence for him, and there are many more inexplicable things mixed in.

He suddenly wanted to change something, not like he was at the beginning, just to be a spectator.

Time passed quickly in Walkerley's narration and Andu's deep thoughts, and before I knew it, it was time for afternoon classes.

Today is also the last day of Roy's lecture.

Tomorrow, the beloved priest and his teacher will truly leave Halma and return to his former city.

Andu took a rare moment to calm down and listened carefully to Roy's lesson, although it still didn't inspire him.

After all, this was the last time he would give a lecture......

Roy also noticed the change in Andu, and after the class, he was left alone again.

Roy didn't go and talk to Andu about something he had just talked about this time, but chatted with him and pulled out something.

"What is this?"

Andu looked at him curiously, but he was a little moved in his heart.

Call crystals worth more than a dozen silver dollars are not something that can be bought if you want to.

"It's called a call crystal, and it can talk over long distances. ”

Roy said softly, "You inject spirituality into it, and then say what you want to say, and you can pass on what you say to the designated call crystal." ”

After Roy finished speaking, he took out a call crystal that was almost exactly the same as that given to Andu, and continued.

"Every time you use this call crystal, it will take a month to regain your energy before you can use it again, and if you have anything, you can use it to find me. ”

Andu nodded silently, although he had long known the function of the call crystal, he still listened very carefully.

It's not just a matter of money, he didn't get the first call crystal in his life until the third ring, and in Akmund's situation, it will only be more difficult to get the call crystal.

Andu didn't say a word of thanks, and saying thank you at this time would seem tacky and contrived.

Roy looked at Andu in front of him and sighed deeply, but he seemed to be much older at this moment in his forties.

The room became somewhat quiet, and the two of them did not speak for a long time, until a kind voice broke the rare silence.

"You are very smart and very perceptive, and some of your understanding of the Bible makes me a little unbelievable that you can say it, but what I hope most is that you can be an upright person. ”

"What is not lacking in this world is the dark side that you told me, so I don't ask you to have any high achievements, as long as you can keep going on your own path, it's good. ”

"Jobe Ferreira said that your heart grows wider with the place you go. ”

"If you have the opportunity in the future, try to visit all parts of the world. ”

Andu's eyes didn't know when they began, they gradually turned red, but he had been a human for almost twenty years, and he had not heard this advice to himself like a loving father.

When he wiped the corners of his eyes and looked up, Roy had already returned to the room.

Maybe I don't want to see him now.

Andu slowly raised his head, put away the sadness in his heart, and left Roy's residence.

There was a little less casualness in his eyes and more determination.

"Do you have something to do at night?"

Andu said with a friendly look at Walkley.

"It's fine. Walkley looked at Andu in surprise and said honestly, "What's the matter, you want to invite me to dinner?"

"I'm going to find someone, and if today's business is done, I'll invite you to eat, and the Bible will talk to you. ”

Andu said seriously.

"Who, it's not right to see you like this. Walkley looked at Andu's expression, and he didn't know why he had a bad premonition.

"A person who may be involved in evil things, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it alone, aren't you the strongest and first person who claims to be a trainee priest?

Looking at Andu's playful expression, Walkley's face turned red and he hesitated.

"Who said I was scared!Go and go!!"

"So for now, it's hard to talk about the evening. Andu looked up at the dim sky, and it was only an hour before it got dark.
