Chapter 718: take a step back

Views:

In the evening, the city of Altland quickly became noisy again after the rush hour. update the fastest

Of course, it's not the unscrupulousness at night.

But closer to life.

The first few housewives carrying handbags in the 'Twist Tower Bakery' immediately pushed the door open after hanging a 'half price' sign in the bakery window.

A few minutes later, one by one returned with a full load.

This is a secret that only those who live nearby know.

Every Friday evening, 'Twisted Tower Bakery' sells leftover bread from the day and previous days at half price.

The leftover bread of the day is the first choice of housewives.

Leftovers from previous days... would work too.

On the premise that food is not expensive, spending less money is what housewives need to consider.

After all, the saved money is enough to buy half a piece of sausage and three or four more eggs, with some vegetable soup, it is a hearty meal.

People living around enter the 'Twist Tower Bakery' in an endless stream.

Soon, the half-price bread was sold out.

There were only a few loose ends and crumbs left in the basket.

The owner of the bakery started to organize these. He put all these bread corners and bread crumbs in a basket, and then marked a word '3¥'.

This is also the practice of 'Twist Tower Bakery'.

Some people don't mind paying 3 yuan for a basket of bread.

Even if they are not complete.

Tonight is no exception.

Just as the owner of the bakery was cleaning most of the store, a customer walked into the bakery.

Not the housewives of the neighborhood.

But no strangers either.

Although the other party was wearing a long trench coat with a stand-up collar, a mask and glasses that always like to cover his face, the owner of the bakery still welcomed him with a smile.

"Good evening, that's all that's left, okay?"

asked the bakery owner.

Then, without waiting for the other party's answer, he began to help put it into a kraft paper bag.

He knows exactly what the other party needs.

no answer.

Two crumpled banknotes appeared on the counter. After checking the integrity of the banknotes, the owner of the bakery handed the brown paper bag full of bread crumbs to the other party, and, as usual, sent a polite word .

"Welcome to visit us next time!"

Again no answer.

Silent customers leave 'Twist Tower Bakery' with paper bags.

But when he was about four or five meters away, the customer stopped abruptly.

He saw several people standing across the street.

The long monk's uniform and the badge of the 'Dandong' church on the chest are enough to explain where these people come from.

Without even thinking about it, the customer turned around and changed direction.

But monks from the 'Dandong' church also appeared in that direction.

In another direction, the same is true.

The monks of the 'Dandong' church began to approach slowly.

The silent customer backed away quickly.

The other side once again entered the 'twisted tower bakery'.

And the moment the other party enters

boom!

The explosion happened.

Amidst the huge roar, 'Twist Tower Bakery' flew into the sky.

But the strange thing is that there is no thick smoke or flames.

There are only white flying flour and some crystal powder emitting white light.

"Ah! Ahhh!"

Contains a roar of pain, like the roar of a wild animal.

A figure stained with flour and crystal powder rolled on the ground, as if he was stained with concentrated sulfuric acid!

"Dandong, full of fighting spirit!"

"Use your sword to destroy the evil in front of you!"

In the low aria, the monks of 'Dandong' surrounded the figures rolling on the ground, pouring bottles of holy water on each other.

Chi Chi Chi!

White smoke rose from the opponent's body.

The figure that was tumbling violently, soon stopped moving.

"It is impossible for any evil to exist in the world under the watchful eye of His Majesty Dandong!"

In the high-pitched voice, the dean of the 'Dandong' church with white beard and hair came from the end of the street.

From the beginning to the end, the officiant's eyes were on Qin Ran who was walking beside him.

Obviously, these words were meant for Qin Ran.

"Never be careless at any time!"

Qin Ran replied like this.

It's not contradicting, let alone being rude.

Coupled with the humble expression on Qin Ran's face when he spoke, even the priest in front of him couldn't fault him, and the two nuns and the middle-aged priest beside him nodded repeatedly.

However, the chief priest thought that Qin Ran should be more obedient.

Not just for 'Dandon', but for him as well.

You know, he is the most loyal servant of 'Dandong', and not everyone can walk side by side with him as he deserves such respect!

"Is he the one responsible for the bombing of Winchester House?"

"Who killed the trio of Utah State 'Greven'?"

The priest asked continuously.

"Yes."

Qin Ran nodded.

"How did you confirm that?"

"Although he is indeed evil, what is your evidence?"

The chief priest with white beard and hair continued to ask.

Such questioning stunned the two nuns and the middle-aged priest who were traveling with them.

Especially the nun, Sili Danton, frowned.

"Your Excellency, what are you doing?"

Sili Danton's tone revealed seriousness.

"I just want to know the truth of the matter!"

The priest answered like this.

But everyone could feel the priest's insincere words.

Thinking of the arrogance and arrogance of the priest on weekdays, the remaining three senior priests of the 'Dandong' church frowned. If the other party was not the only one who could open the altar, how could he become the senior priest of the church with his personality? personnel.

"My evidence?"

"A person who has spent time and energy building his own organization, why would he just give up?"

"But there are a lot of books that no one will believe that record myths and legends, but some people are willing to kill people for these things. Why?"

Qin Ran did not answer directly.

After using Ann Rutledge Okun to investigate the current 'Dandong' church, Kieran knew who he needed to pay attention to.

He spent a considerable amount of time to study the 'Dandong' priest.

Not only the life of the other party, but also the character of the other party.

Therefore, he knows how to answer to convince the other party.

Don't state to the other party, but let the other party find the answer by themselves.

Watch the expression on the other person's face change.

Qin Ran added just right.

"The Winchester House bombing... was it really as simple as it seemed?"

"Just for some museum collection?"

"Could it be something else that is more precious and rare?"

As Qin Ran spoke, his eyes swept across the priest of the 'Dandong' church with a shocked face and thoughtful thoughts.

Not only the priest, but the remaining two nuns and the middle-aged priest also looked at the curled up figure on the ground in shock.

"Besides such an explanation, I can't think of any reason why you would do this... Professor Haroldt!"

Qin Ran looked at the man who was lying on the ground as if he was dead.

Of course the opponent is not dead.

Although it seemed that the other party was not breathing, no one knew the magic of that heart better than Qin Ran.

If it was really that heart, coupled with some of the opponent's hidden cards, the scene of knocking down the opponent just now was nothing more than the opponent's intention.

As for why

Qin Ran saw the agitated expression and twinkling eyes of the head priest of the 'Dandong' church anxiously stepped forward to check the other's body, and immediately took a step back calmly. (… )r
