I feel that the priest’s opening remarks may have two meanings.
It could be, what do you need to confess? Or, why should you, a foreigner, come to confess?
Roy, who experienced such a scene for the first time, felt a little nervous.
The greeting to Bishop Lavoisier inevitably led to some overthinking.
However, thinking of the subsequent vows made by Priest Duerke who asked for questioning, she felt a lot more confident and spoke with a hint of polite apology:
"Mr. Father, I don't understand the law very well. The things I want to ask you about may be more and more trivial."
"Don't mind it, you and I can chat casually." Fan Ning raised his hand to indicate that it was okay, "I need to express my gratitude to Miss Roy in advance regarding the Janus Cinema chain. This is what I have made clear before.
"
In fact, it's not me you should thank, but him. Roy sighed in his heart, but still had a smile on his face, and tried to ask: "I'm better at casual chatting. For example, I want to ask Mr. Father for advice.
You have just established your majesty and glory in Janus, and now you are about to investigate the abnormal area. What kind of state of mind is driving such a plan?"
After asking, seeing that the other party didn't answer for a while, she felt that it might still be a bit abrupt, so she kept adding: "Actually, I asked this because of an old friend. He has been away for some time, and I sometimes contact him sometimes.
No, I don’t know about his circumstances. Because of some of his life experiences and his entanglements with the Special Patrol Office, maybe he will face a similar situation to you now or in the future? So I thought, maybe you can have some reference for your state of mind.
Value? There may also be some reference value for the knowledge about that place, the expected risks and duration? But if it involves organizational secrets, forget it."
What does "contact come and go" mean? Didn't I basically reply to all your emails? I even deliberately added the word "intermittently" to avoid making it seem perfunctory. Why would others say bad things about me in front of me when they are wrong?
ah
Some inconspicuous keywords in the other party's words seemed to arouse Fan Ning's "grievance" too much, making him depressed for a while.
Then, Fan Ning was really stumped by this question, which he might not be able to answer even if he answered it truthfully.
Entering the state of mind in the abnormal zone?
What kind of tricky angle is the question?
Fan Ning regretted that she had praised Haikou and said "just chat" before the confession. If she had known that she didn't understand very well, she would have guided her at her own pace.
Now we can only step into the perspective of "Bishop Lavoisier", deeply analyze his life and character, and think about his mission.
Well, it has been delayed for a bit long. It only took so long to answer the first question, which led to a deadlock in the Sacrament of Penance. It is really unsatisfactory. I have to think faster and faster.
Back to the train of thought, the Holy Sun Church, as the "original sect" of Mithraism, inherits orthodoxy, the great achievement of "Trinity" is Lavoisier's ultimate pursuit, and the "theme of God" left by Saint Sebastian

"Mr. Father, do you think we need to change it?" Roy smiled sheepishly.
"Pilgrimage! Yes, it is pilgrimage." Fan Ning finally found a word.
He was satisfied with the accuracy of the word's summary, but he seemed to be a little weaker in terms of momentum and demeanor, so he decided to immediately take the initiative to pursue the remedy, pretending to be deep and asking questions slowly, and first confused the other party before speaking:
"Has Miss Roy ever had any experience of pilgrimage?"
"Well" Roy changed the position of his feet to one side and started thinking seriously, "This sounds like a very serious word that has a lot of meaning in life, and it has a strong religious meaning.
My life experience is relatively shallow, and I come from a school of thought rather than a church, so maybe I have never experienced it."
"It doesn't have to be a religious category."
"Oh, for other people, what kind of experience would be considered a pilgrimage?"
"In my humble opinion, two things must be met." Fan Ning stretched out his hand and said, "One is the faraway place that has never been reached, and the other is the pure purpose after taking off the disguise."
Roy speculated on these two key phrases. She was still a little unaware that Father Lavoisier's style of "casual chatting" with her alone today seemed to have changed somewhat.
It means the legacy of ancient monks.
She thought for a while and commented: "The first point is easy to understand, it is to travel far away, but the second point, what is the 'purpose after taking off the disguise'?"
Fan Ning smiled meaningfully: "Except for physiological needs such as 'eating and sleeping', in fact, many of the things each of us do on a daily basis are dominated by the purpose of 'identity disguise' rather than
Motives that are truly your own.”
Roy asked three questions in surprise:
"Identity disguise?"
"Everyone has?"
"For example, does Mr. Father also act under a 'disguise of identity'?"
Well, there must be some metaphorical imagery or essential analysis in this.
"Of course, people act under disguise and get tired after a long time." Fan Ning's answer was heartfelt and sincere.
Roy became more and more surprised.
She actually heard a hint of fatigue in Father Lavoisier's tone, which she had never felt before.
"For example, a worker in a factory or an employee in a company, everything he does is due to his employment status, responsibilities from family members, requirements from professional ethics, pressure from external survival, etc., if there were not these
'Identity disguise', he is not willing to spend most of his time and energy on this matter."
“For another example, young people who are lovers need to consider each other’s preferences when it comes to dates, outings, and meals; married wives and husbands must devote a certain amount of energy to housework and childcare; and those who attend social gatherings
People must consider their image in the eyes of others in every move they make; when a singer standing in the choir performs a musical phrase, even if he has his own understanding, he must always keep an eye on the conductor's movements and expressions. Without these 'identity disguises'
, they might as well act entirely based on their own habits and comfort when they are alone.”
"As for me, when preaching to others, I must always consider how the lambs and masters around me will understand and imitate them; when dealing with mysterious issues, I need to consider how to handle the relationship with other official organizations; when dealing with the current situation of military personnel
When committing some transgressions, we also need to prevent excessive force, which will cause the overall situation of my Janus to be unstable."
"I see, so Father Lavoisier is also wearing an 'identity disguise'!" Roy smiled.
Fan Ning's spiritual sense penetrated the partition and met her blue eyes.
He saw the other party gradually showing a surprised expression, so he nodded sincerely:
