Chapter 51: We are family

Qiao Xi didn't look guilty at all, instead she looked like the eldest lady who usually acted naughty and coquettishly towards him.

But Xu Tong didn't feel angry about this, but his eyes looking at Qiao Qian were full of regret, even... pity.

This result seemed to be beyond his expectation, but it also seemed to be within his expectation.

I just didn't expect that this card would be revealed so quickly.

"Huh? What's your expression!!"

Seeing Xu Tong's terrifying calmness, with no wave in his eyes, Qiao Qian couldn't help but frown and asked, "Shouldn't you be angry?"

Xu Tong glanced at the withered sycamore behind Qiao Qian and said: "What a pity, this tree must be more than a hundred years old."

"I'm asking you a question, answer me, Kevin!!"

Qiao Qian's face turned cold as she was ignored by Xu Tong. This was completely different from what she expected. Shouldn't he be angry because of his fooling?

"Pity!"

Xu Tong repeated what he said just now, but this time he was referring to Qiao Qian.

"This kind of thing is like playing cards. The card that is thrown out is equivalent to a discarded card. Only the card in your hand is the trump card..."

As he spoke, Xu Tong sat down, took out the hookah pipe from the props book, rolled the shredded tobacco into a ball with one hand, and stuffed it into the pot.

"Actually, I didn't expect it to be you. You hid it very well. I didn't notice anything was wrong at all. It wasn't until Deli, the old dog, that I noticed something was wrong with you."

Xu Tong did not lie about this matter.

Even at this moment, when he was examining Qiao Qian's body with his Life Eye Qi Men, Qiao Qian was still just an ordinary person.

This shows that Qiao Qie’s strength level is higher than hers.

So I never noticed anything was wrong with Josie.

It wasn't until the death of the new housekeeper that Xu Tong became alert. He stared at the old dog all night and finally gave up on this clue.

"Josie, in fact, you are no threat to me. It has been like this from the beginning to the end, until this moment!"

"Oh, I was almost moved to tears!" Qiao Xi curled her lips disdainfully.

How could I believe such nonsense?

As Mrs. Morgan, a mean bitch, often says.

It is indeed a man's mouth, a liar.

Sizzling...

The shredded tobacco in the smoke pot gradually carbonized under the firelight. Xu Tong blew out a puff of green smoke and watched the smoke clouds rise, with a relaxed expression on his cheeks.

"Don't you understand yet? We are essentially the same. You are a devil and so am I. There is no hostile relationship between us."

"seem……"

Qiao Qian was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect Xu Tong to say such words. This was completely different from what she originally thought.

"You admit that you are a devil?"

Xu Tong pointed to his chest: "It was a long time ago."

Now Josie was a little confused.

Because this was not the design in the original plan, shouldn’t Kevin, as the church bishop, stand on the side of the Lord of God?

What Qiao Xi thought was correct. From any perspective, Xu Tong's identity as the bishop of the church was indestructibly bound to the church.

But what she may not have expected is that after hearing what Lao Dao said, Xu Tong completely understood.

Identity is the biggest trap in this game.

Just when Qiao Qian was at a loss, Xu Tong stood up, walked step by step in front of Qiao Qian, suddenly grabbed her hand, and put this little hand on his heart.

"The great Lady Lilith bears witness to me with her conscience, just as I have my unwavering faith in her."

I don’t know what Lilith’s expression would be if she could hear such words.

But when Qiao Qian felt the beating heart in her chest and Xu Tong's fiery eyes, Qiao Qian became a little panicked.

She vaguely felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't put it into words.

Xu Tong leaned down and whispered in Qiao Qian's ear: "So from the beginning, I never doubted you, and I don't need to doubt you.

because……

We are family!”

"family!"

Qiao Qian's eyes were in a daze, but at this time Xu Tong's hand was already on Qiao Qian's waist, and he said in a very firm tone:

"Yes, from the moment I stepped through the door of Morgan's house, you and I have become family, my fiancée, Josie Morgan!"

Qiao Xi's eyes were blurred, and she didn't know how to refute or accept it for a moment.

"Ahem! What a touching love story!"

Suddenly, a light cough interrupted Qiao Qian's chaotic thoughts. Her face turned pale, like a frightened rabbit trying to jump out of Xu Tong's arms.

However, Xu Tong's arms were as strong as iron pincers.

I saw a figure slowly walking out of the haze, an unexpected figure.

Archbishop Evelyn.

Josie seemed to be very afraid of Evelin. When she saw Evelin staring at her, Josie's body couldn't stop trembling.

"Josie, you disappoint me."

Evelin's hoarse voice was filled with impatient anger. According to the plan, Qiao Qian should have arrested Xu Tong by now.

Even if Qiao Xi can't do it, she can still launch a fatal blow at the critical moment.

Complete the final step of this operation.

However, Evelin obviously did not expect that Josie was actually confused by Kevin's few words. Seeing that if it continued, she was about to surrender to the enemy. Evelin finally couldn't sit still and could only walk out of the darkness.

Faced with Evelin's harsh criticism, Qiao Xi didn't know how to answer for a while, but Xu Tong smiled and said: "Don't have any hope for the devil. Isn't this what you taught me?"

I saw Xu Tong take out a book from the props book. It was a book about the church that Evelin gave to Xu Tong when they first met.

Xu Tong opened the title page, and there was a sentence written on it: "The greatest kindness to the devil is to send them to hell!"

Naturally, Qiao Xi also saw this sentence.

Xu Tong continued: "So you killed Andre just to use him as bait and put the hat of killing him on my head, right?"

Evelin sneered: "Shouldn't you be the one who killed Andre?"

Xu Tong took out a sticky substance, which was the contaminant extracted from the skull of Archbishop Andre.

"Andre has many guards around him. It is impossible for Josie to enter and leave the ward at will. Moreover, she has never entered the Inquisition.

It just so happened that you frequently visited the Inquisition during this period, as Art can prove.

Therefore, you are the only person who can enter and leave the ward freely, and you are the only one who can plant contaminants into Andre without him being alert."

Evelin glanced at the speck of contaminant on Xu Tong's hand and did not deny the matter. She just cursed in a low voice: "Trash!"

"Now, the only thing I don't understand is that you should be with Tommy at this moment, why are you here??"

This is the only thing Xu Tong said he couldn't explain.

"Because this is not his true identity."

Josie suddenly spoke and revealed the answer.

There is a very special ability in the church called light walker, which is said to be able to separate into light clones and travel to any place at will.

Evelin happens to have this ability, and at this moment his true body is on the way with Tommy.

Qiao Qian said, pushing Xu Tong away, and her expression gradually became decisive: "Let's go! It's not too late now."

"Josie!!" Evelin's expression changed drastically.

Josie turned her back to Evelin, so that Evelin could not see the cold look in her eyes:

"Isn't this result in line with your plan? Could it be that your original plan was to let him kill me."

Evelin was speechless for a moment when she heard this, and immediately denied: "How is that possible!"

"Then let him go. I have prepared sacrifices to help you open the door to hell." After Josie said that, the surrounding fog began to dissipate.

The sun gradually shines down from the sky outside.

Faced with Qiao Xi’s decisiveness, Evelin hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and looked coldly at Xu Tong: “As a cardinal, I will issue a fatwa to you. Kevin, you are a good boy, but I

You shouldn’t have come to Amantes, now, run away!”

Evelin finished speaking, and before Xu Tong could say anything, a prompt came from the prop book.

"Special Mission 3: Escape from the Chase

Mission description: You are about to face the pursuit of the church, and all those who help you will be regarded as enemies of the church.

Task time: 3 hours.

Mission punishment: death!"

Seeing the mission prompt, Xu Tong didn't say any more nonsense. He knew that he had to leave as soon as possible and glanced at Qiao Qian: "Wait for me!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Evelin sighed: "Josie, the church is proud of you. One day, you will have a place on the mural of the Lord."

Hearing Evelin's words, Josie did not refute, but put her hand on her chest: "This is exactly the meaning of Eretia's sacrifice. The contract he set with his life is something I cannot break."

Evelin nodded with satisfaction, and her figure gradually disappeared into the sunlight.

After Evelin left, Josie still maintained a humble posture and just continued: "But this does not change the fact that I am a devil!"
