Amidst the solemn and compassionate organ fugue, the strange eyes of the surrounding believers have already surrounded him.
It's not an extreme emotion like anger or intention to drive away, but a sense of disdain of "are there such people?" and "who are these people?"
"Your Excellency, please don't make outrageous jokes." Owen snorted coldly, but judging from the fact that he did not order the investigators to interfere with the deacons who went up to fetch people, he should have taken a step back on this issue for the time being.
After all, this is not his own country, Theoline.
The basis for the Special Inspection Office to exercise its powers is only based on the name of "Leading Organization of the Discussion Group" and has no secular basis. The functions of the discussion group are also limited to "containing the spread of abnormal areas" and other related fields.
Anyway, the most important clue in this incident - the "Notes on Wormology" that was integrated with the coffee table in an incomprehensible way, he had already asked someone to cut out the entire glass.
After the music ended with the glorious D major chords, the believers paid tribute repeatedly and then gradually dispersed.
"This alone does not affect any of my judgments. Lavoisier's composition level and performance level are all masters. He stands on the shoulders of the great organist, the old Bishop Sesler. He is versatile,
Truly the jack of all trades in my church.”
Hearing this "Toccata and Fugue in D minor", which is full of judgmental majesty and later filled with solemn glory, Tucqueville once again admired it in his heart.
Irving watched coldly as several deacons took the fainted Aldan away, and then watched Fan Ning's figure slowly walk back to the ground from the steps.
"Three days later is the 'Baptismal Feast' of your church." He stared at Fan Ning, "Mr. Wax will meet you at San Porto Sun Church and arrange special arrangements so that you can become a Christian in time for the grand event.
Dingjiao level."
"That's how it must have happened." Fan Ning expressed his gratitude after hearing this, "Brother the acolyte, quickly brought Mr. Irving's bowl of cold plain noodles, added soup and heated it up for a while."
Owen's legs and arms tensed and relaxed.
"No."
"I remind you to plan your own itinerary and don't use any tricks to evade investigation. If you are found to have left Lebic and deviated from the route to San Porto, you will also be held accountable by the clergy who protected you."
Bishop Tukville was about to get angry when he heard such prejudicial remarks. Fan Ning asked strangely: "Why is Mr. Owen so sulky? Why does he have evasive speculations or opinions?"
He sighed softly and looked around: "All the people in the city under the sky are blind to things. If you become something, won't you be accepted? If you don't do well, sin will be lurking at the door."
, it must be in love with you, but you must subdue it."
"Lavoisier, has no one taught you to pay attention to the way you speak?"
An investigator next to him immediately thought of some recent public opinion trends, so he finally couldn't bear the "innuendo" and pulled out his pistol and pointed it at Fan Ning: "It's not a crime, why don't you make this up today?"
Explain the motive of what you said to the commander clearly, and then take two shots from me first!"
The deacon next to him was a gentle man. He took out the pamphlet on his chest and unfolded it:
"I saw that Mr. Investigator's face had changed several times just now. I suggested that the most important thing at the moment is to calm down and read Chapter 4, Section 7 of the 'Gospel of Light' from the Enlightenment Sutra. Mr. Lavoisier almost
The word has not changed, and the previous words and deeds are basically similar.”
The believers who were watching also began to talk about it.
"This man of arms might as well explain why a priest cannot read the Bible in Janus's church?"
"These Gentiles use filthy words and draw swords and guns. They show great disrespect for the faith of our church."
"The morality of the world today has indeed changed."
"Let's go." Irving suppressed his anger, stopped looking at Lavoisier, and motioned for his subordinates to leave first.
At this time, Tukweil said loudly: "Since Mr. Inspector General has a poor appetite in the early morning, let's wait for the formal dinner and we, as the hosts, will entertain you properly."
Seeing that Owen was completely defeated in front of the would-be priest today, his tone was deliberately polite for a moment, but in fact he was secretly happy.
Owen ignored him and quickly disappeared from the doorway.
Hearing the word "formal dinner" in the conversation between the two, Fan Ning seemed to think of something.
While carrying the bowl of plain noodles to a believer who was relatively skinny among the onlookers, he casually asked:
"Your Excellency, Bishop, for the time being, that Gentile has no unpardonable sin, but he has strayed from the right path and has indeed gone astray. Why do you invite him to a banquet and sit with him to eat and drink?"
Bishop Tukville immediately explained: "Irving's recent tour in the San Porto area actually had nothing to do with your sudden visit and Hester's sudden death. There was a pre-existing reason."
"There are distinguished guests from the Bologna School in the Northern Continent, who are inspecting a systematic art construction project in Janus. It is related to the overall situation of the continent and is very important. It is also within the scope of the discussion group. Therefore, the key node is the Special Inspectorate.
Helping people requires supervision and participation.”
"The main destination of the inspection group was San Porto, but then on a whim, we decided to make our first stop in the small town of Lebici. I invite you to go with me in the evening. Do you want to do it?"
After receiving the confirmation, Fan Ning felt a little anxious, and said "Oh" with relief:
"This matter of cooperating with the righteous is like imitating the covenant with the Lord, and the merit must be no small."
Tukweil nodded in agreement: "Well, you don't have to be mentally burdened by what happened before. The Mass ceremony on the 'Baptismal Day' was personally presided over by Pope James XIX, and the saints will also be watching.
Everything, even though Mr. Nawa is the enforcer, he cannot overstep the boundaries of Janus’s territory. Even if Bogorelic comes to judge in person, you can still show the decree and inspiration you received as usual."
However, after he finished his concerned reminder, seeing Lavoisier's always upright and peaceful attitude, he suddenly felt that what he said was a bit redundant.
Fan Ning continued to return to the bandstand to practice the organ until lunch.
Then he asked someone to move two large bundles of books, and sat on the first row of seats in the empty church for the whole afternoon. The whole time, he looked like he was pondering the meaning of the scriptures and studying devoutly.
In fact, Fan Ning is really studying, and it has been like this for the past four months. As the world source god in charge of the "Candle", the "Unfallen Fire" is directly related to the powers such as glow, flame, enlightenment, etc., and is closest to the "Sun"
The essence of "divine art".
He had previously mastered the rituals related to the Lord of Witnesses. Now, relying on the knowledge and inspiration of the Knower, as well as his personal visits to Janus to observe, he has gradually assumed the temperament of Lavoisier's ancient priest.
There is a model.
In short, after the storm subsided in the early morning, Fan Ning had no intention of seeking information, nor did he go out to investigate the situation.
On the way to the banquet in the evening, he received the first real-time interrogation progress that the church proactively shared with him.
There was indeed something wrong with the so-called "helminthology" studied by Hester, which caused some unknown changes to him, so Aldan prepared a sacrifice ceremony according to the method provided by the secret organization.
But the unexpected thing is that the plan, which was originally predicted to be implemented a month later, seemed to suddenly advance ahead of schedule last night, so Aldan received instructions to start immediately.
"Sure enough, this 'blind box' really opened something that was not good for me. It was very necessary to handle it carefully before. First, I used the first two dialogues to simplify the problem, and then asked Aldan to shut up the rest. There is no explanation in front.
, even if I explained it later, if people from the Special Patrol Office were present when Aldan confessed the following words, Irving would definitely hold on to this issue and he would not be as easy to talk to as before."
In the current situation, the people in the Special Patrol Department only thought that it was because Lavoisier's visit would attract the Insight, so Aldan implemented the plan in advance. Only the people in the church knew that the real reason was that "the progress of the transformation of the sacrifices suddenly accelerated."
The church will definitely further investigate the cause of this clue, but with Fan Ning gaining admiration and trust, the initiative has been taken - internal progress has been shared directly with itself as soon as possible.
"It's just that Hester, who studies 'helminthology', is it really because of my proximity that the progress of unknown mutations has accelerated? This is really uncertain. There are too many mysterious factors in my body now.
The status is so high that anything can happen.”
"The top priority is to follow up on the interrogation of Aldan and find out what is written in the "Notes on Wormology", but the source of evidence has been taken away by Irving."
The carriage stopped at a private residence in the small town of Lebic. Under the guidance of the attendant, Fan Ning followed the church people through the hall. While he was thinking, he suddenly heard a clear and noble voice——
"Thanks."
At the corner, which was blocked by the goldfish tank and the screen, Roy, surrounded and escorted by several people, burst into Fan Ning's field of vision.
She was wearing a large dark red cotton trench coat, which was wrapped in a tight and slim-fitting thin sweater and over-the-knee boots. The attendant handed over the red soft felt hat with her smile.
Thank you, the moisture on your lips floats in the cold air.
There will be 2k-3k single updates in the past few days at the end of the month, and I will try to resume double updates next month when the situation is better.
