Volume 1 The Winter of Halma Chapter 133 The Herald
"Actually, I was very nervous just now. Andu smiled and pretended to be surprised, "Is there a problem?"
Cha De didn't reply, looked at him quietly, and said in a hoarse voice after a long time,
"Hopefully, my guess is just a guess. ”
Smiling slightly, after responding, Andu didn't say anything.
Out of the blockade area, Andu quickly left with the two of them under the strange gaze of the people and the police.
"Let's go shopping for clothes first. ”
A few minutes later, looking at the ragged and beggar GoldFrey and Robert, he couldn't help but ask.
The two of them nodded hurriedly, in such a cold weather, almost completely exposed their upper bodies, it was also a huge test for the two of them, especially Robert!
I looked down at my "black suit", and I don't know when it has become a cloth strip suit, and this thought has become even stronger!
found a clothing store nearby, and after Andu repurchased a set of clothes for the two of them and himself, he finally felt a sense of steadiness in his heart.
However, the inner stability cannot relieve the mental pressure, although the battle just now is short, the consumption brought is far more than that simple.
Considering that Gaufdry and Robert were also injured, Andu thought for a while, found a rickshaw and chose to go home.
The newly bought light blue suit was very comfortable, and the heat provided by Andu was also very satisfied, and he was amused when he looked at Gao Fodri who was constantly looking at the new clothes in front of him.
"How are you two?"
Gao Fodri immediately said: "No problem at all!"
Robert glared at the barbarian fiercely, and then sighed: "It's just a little tired." ”
Andu nodded, Robert is not like Gao Fodri, he has a strong barbarian blood, he has just recovered from his injury, and he has encountered such things one after another, and the consumption is indeed very large.
He was about to speak, but the barbarian on the side said a little desolately,
"I'm just a little hungry!"
Andu was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that this guy hadn't eaten since morning.
An inexplicable smile suddenly came to his heart, and for a while Andu actually laughed out loud.
After a few seconds, he realized that his appearance was not very serious, and he coughed lightly and smiled,
"When I get back, I can eat. ”
"Really?" Golfdrie's eyes widened, his face full of joy and nervousness.
"Really. Andu nodded slightly.
......
Until lying in bed, Andu still couldn't come back to his senses.
The exhaustion of his heart invaded his whole body, and the depression and hardship of a long time made him fall into a deep sleep.
By the time he opened his eyes again, it was already evening.
"I've slept for so long?" Andu looked a little surprised as he glanced at his pocket watch.
Putting his pocket watch in his pocket, he felt most of his energy regained, put on his coat and walked out.
At the dining table, Elizabeth sat quietly, holding a music magazine in her hand, looking at it with relish.
Gao Fodri, who had been gearing up for a long time, peeked in the direction of the kitchen from time to time with expectant eyes, where Ms. Elsa was preparing dinner for a while.
Robert glanced at the barbarian with disdain, but rarely said nothing, just snorted coldly to express his disdain.
"It's all here?"
Andu walked to the table with a smile on her face, and Elizabeth finally put down the magazine in her hand.
Before she could speak, Elizabeth looked at her with complicated eyes.
What did she know?Andu's heart tightened for no reason, and his thoughts instantly diverged, thinking about how to answer his sister's question for a while.
The question didn't wait, Elizabeth looked at herself deeply, and a rare gentle smile appeared on her face,
"In the evening it was steak with caviar. ”
"I love steak!" said Guffrey, his eyes lit up.
Looking at the excited barbarian like a child, Andu's heart was calm.
"It's good, I like steak too. He chuckled as if the two had never looked at each other before.
A hint of weirdness flashed in his heart, Andu always felt that something was not right, but he couldn't say anything.
His gaze swept over Gofrie and Robert, and suddenly there was an answer in his heart.
"Yes, such an obvious problem...... Andu sighed in his heart, and the white faces of the two, especially Robert's bald head, expressed all the time the strange situation they encountered when they went out today.
Even his hair has been burned a lot shorter! Andu resisted the urge to touch his head, and couldn't help but think of the picture of looking in the mirror when he went to buy clothes today!
"It's time to eat!" said Ms. Ersa, who appeared just in time, along with Abt and Arnold, both of whom had freshly grilled steak and caviar in their hands.
With a smile on his face, he forcibly put down the trivial matters in his heart, and started dinner with everyone as usual.
Dinner went on pleasantly, and Elizabeth seemed to be in a good mood, and it was rare that she did not bother him.
After eliminating five steaks, Gofrich went back to his room with a full burp, and Robert finished his meal early.
Looking at the dining table with only two people, Elizabeth finally looked at Andu again, her eyes were deep, and her good-looking eyebrows were slightly raised,
"Is it dangerous?"
It's still been discovered...... An Du had a wry smile in his heart, but there was a warm smile on his face.
"A few minor issues. ”
Elizabeth's mouth opened, and then closed helplessly, and after a few back and forth, she finally said,
"Why don't you go to church?"
"That's not going to work, you know, there's a number of years to be in the church. Andu's expression was embarrassed, but his eyes secretly observed Elizabeth's reaction.
A hint of disappointment flashed on the girl's face, but as if she had guessed it a long time ago, she instantly covered it up.
After adjusting his emotions, Andu continued, "If you want to leave the church, you will not be able to apply to be a preacher until two years at the earliest. ”
Elizabeth asked inexplicably, "Preacher?"
Andu nodded and explained, "After two years in the church, if you don't plan to continue working in the church, you can apply to become a preacher, so that you can unilaterally leave the church and don't have to serve in the church. ”
As if thinking of something, he suddenly smiled strangely: "But in that case, you won't be able to get a salary from the church." ”
Elizabeth's face turned red and she said angrily, "Am I that kind of person?
Arnold, who was in the distance, quickly shrank his head to reduce his sense of presence, but Elizabeth was not interested in paying attention to him, and looked at Andu with an anxious face and continued,
"You're really dangerous! I can't imagine if one day, one day, one day, ......"
Elizabeth's eyes gradually reddened, and by the time she said she had begun to choke up.
With some emotion, she took out a delicate-looking lady's handkerchief, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said with a firm gaze.
"Is there really no other way?"
Looking at Elizabeth, who was holding back her emotions and looking at herself nervously, Andu was a little speechless for a while.
"It will take two years at the earliest to apply for ......," he explained helplessly.
It's just that even after waiting for two years, I can't apply...... He said silently in his heart.
Only pastors who have not joined the career choice can apply to become a preacher, and pastors who have joined the judge and purifier cannot leave the church for the rest of their lives, and at most they can only change careers or departments......
Now that he is a judge, even after two years, the church will not agree to his request to change careers or apply for a preacher.
Unless he dies, his identity as a judge will always exist in the records of the church, and he cannot change that.
But looking at the tears in the corners of his sister's eyes, he didn't say the next words.
"Two years?" Elizabeth thought seriously for a while, and said seriously: "Then you must protect yourself during this time! We are not short of the church's money!!"
Andu's expression was a little stunned, and he couldn't help but say, "When I first joined, you didn't seem to say that." ”
Elizabeth said angrily, "Can you compare that then with now!?"
Looking at Elizabeth, who was suddenly excited and returned to a normal state, Andu's heart was unexpectedly steady......
After finishing the conversation with Elizabeth, he returned to his room and lay down on the bed again.
After resting quietly for more than half an hour, he got up from the bed and started today's task.
"Because of the accident, two hole cards were exposed, which may be caught by Ruskin......"
"The hostility of Cha De has not changed, and it is still full of precautions against me, so it is very important to pay special attention in the future!"
"Brewster's situation today was better, but he was suspicious, which doesn't bode well. ”
"Although you can use the teacher as an excuse, this is not a long-term solution, and sooner or later people will be questioned......
At the end of the record, he thought about it and wrote,
"Halmar has a fallen child, judging from the previous situation, the evil thing should have come to Halma, but it has not been discovered yet!"
"Tainted Miranda, Justin ......"
When he wrote this, Andu's thoughts were in a trance, and he suddenly remembered Miranda when he changed today, and his mood instantly dropped a lot.
That girl of the age of a flower should have a great future, a person in love, and a happy, simple and ordinary life in this not too big city.
She should have a child, maybe two? She would be with them and watch them grow up until they grew old.
The pen in his hand was gently put down, and Andu walked to the windowsill, looking at the sea view in the distance, and fell silent.
The paper was ignited by the flames and turned into black ash and floated into the distance, quickly disappearing under the darkness of the night.
"Who is behind the scenes?"
Looking at the pitch-black night sky, as if an invisible black beast was engulfing the earth, his heart was cold.
......
Monday, new morning.
"The weather today is really nice. Andu looked at the bright sun and couldn't help but think of the night sky that was as dark as ink last night.
Not meteorological at all!, he spit silently.
After getting out of the carriage and sending Karl away, Andu strolled to the episcopal church and headed straight for the church.
"You're here?"
The captain's voice suddenly sounded, and Andu turned back in surprise, only to find that O'Connor didn't know when he had arrived.
