"Do you have any other questions?"
After answering another question, Archbishop St. Anthony, who was still smiling slightly and looking at Valila on the sofa, asked a rhetorical question for the first time.
At this time, Valeera also felt much more settled.
A series of questions she asked after entering the door were more or less answered accordingly. Although the words were unclear, they were enough to show the kind attitude of the Goddess Church...well, a relatively kind attitude.
"No more for the time being." Valeela stopped as soon as she felt good.
Although she actually had some questions she wanted to ask, they were not too important... Moreover, you must listen to your words. The meaning of Mr. Anthony's question was obviously that he had something to say, and he should cooperate both emotionally and rationally.
"well."
Anthony nodded slightly and continued with a smile:
"After talking for a while, we haven't formally introduced ourselves yet.
"Haha, I don't need to say more, old man... Anthony Stevenson, Archbishop of Backlund Diocese."
A very tactful question.
Although Valeera prefers a straightforward conversational style, it is not impossible to understand this method... Not to mention, after she entered the "Instigator" stage, due to various reasons, her speech became increasingly vague and tactful.
"Valila Veitch, from a run-down aristocratic family, currently lives at 67 Williams Street in the West End. It goes without saying much else..." Valila continued to meet Anthony's gaze, "Of course, this identity has It’s a small problem, but I can guarantee that this is not a simple false identity, and I will never abandon it.”
She had no hope of hiding this from the Goddess Church, and there was no need.
More importantly, while speaking, Valeela suddenly thought that she might be able to use the energy of the Goddess Church to repair some of the flaws in her identity?
Self-introduction is a symbol of a turning point.
Since then, Valeela and Anthony have initially established a certain tacit understanding, and the conversation between the two parties has therefore entered a new stage. Although it is still relatively superficial, it has indeed begun to truly exchange some more valuable information.
Valeela roughly explained the origin, experience and some flaws of her current identity. In addition, she generously admitted that she was the "Phantom Black Queen" who was once rumored to be a ghost...
Anthony mainly introduced some relevant information about the organizational structure of the Goddess Church. Some of them were known to Valeera and some were unknown to her. None of them were exhaustive, but they also allowed Valeera to more accurately grasp her current situation in the Goddess Church. Subtle location——
To put it simply, she does enjoy rights equivalent to those of a senior deacon when it comes to "little things" that do not interfere with the operation of the church.
Anthony doesn't play tricks.
After briefly giving two examples, he took Valeela all the way down to the guard room in front of Chanis' door under the church.
"This is the church's newly promoted senior deacon, 'Shadow of the Goddess Valeela Veitch." He said to the four-person team on duty.
Valeela stepped forward with a smile and said hello:
"Thank you for your hard work."
She glanced around, and was surprised and surprised to find that she actually recognized half of the four people in the team in front of her, and even vaguely guessed the identity of one person, except for the last one who was a complete stranger——
Leonard Mitchell, who had black hair and green eyes and an obvious romantic temperament as a poet, she had met at Klein's funeral;
Standing next to Leonard was actually the leader of the "Red Gloves" team who was responsible for investigating the death of old Viscount Stott. He was about thirty years old and was known as "Mr. Banks";
There is also a captain with soft facial features and long hair on the temples who looks to be in his forties. Unsurprisingly, he must be Sost, who is in love with Ms. Daley Simone;
As for the remaining one, he was just a passerby, so it didn’t matter. Valeela took a quick look at him and passed him by.
As an archbishop, Anthony obviously couldn't stay for a long time. He probably left alone after explaining Valeela's identity and requirements.
On duty indoors.
Valeera sat on the single sofa and noticed the interrupted card game on the table not far away, with a faint smile on her face.
Among the four members of the team on duty, passerby A received the order and entered Chanis Gate; Sost was a little surprised that he had no impression of Valeera at all; Banks was a little confused, feeling as if he had dreamed about this strange senior deacon. ...As for Leonard, he felt quite surprised.
Why did Klein's lover suddenly become a senior deacon of the church?
Without even thinking about it, he felt there was something wrong here!
Valeera just pretended not to see the three pairs of unnatural and evasive glances, controlled the topic, chatted with them, and waited for passerby A to return with what she wanted——
As a senior deacon, she is still qualified to apply for some supplies, even if it is more in name only.
Therefore, some small problems that had troubled her for a long time suddenly stopped being a problem, such as the promotions of Habib and Dunn.
After a while, a passerby came out of Chanis's door and handed a small suitcase to Valila:
"Ma'am, what you want."
"Yes," Valeela nodded, stood up from the sofa, and looked at the "Poet" on the couch opposite, "Leonard, could you please take me to the No. 2 Data Room here?"
She already knew from previous conversations that former "psychic" Daly was there.
"Ready to serve."
Leonard stood up with a smile, walked to the door of the duty room, raised his right hand in a substandard "please" gesture, and his attitude was slightly casual.
Underground passage.
Valeela looked at Leonard who was walking beside her and hesitated to speak. After a moment of hesitation, she decided to listen to her inner voice and said:
"Tell you some information.
"There is a 'parasite' hiding in the sewer near Berklund Street. The key person is Miss Hazel from Senator Macht's house."
She is trying to verify the truth she learned in her confession not long ago - "make choices according to your heart and accept the consequences of your choices", trying to deepen her understanding, help herself get rid of vacillation and strengthen her heart.
Suddenly hearing the word "parasite", Leonard felt that his heartbeat had skipped a beat, and the few thoughts and speculations about Valeela in his mind were instantly shattered.
He took a little longer before replying with a smile:
"Ma'am, do you want me to convey this news to Lord Sesima?"
"I think you should understand what I mean."
Valeera shook her head imperceptibly, with an inexplicable faint smile, and said pointedly;
"There are many special people in this world who have secrets that ordinary people don't have, such as you... and me."
This sentence evoked a certain memory in Leonard's heart.
He once said similar words to a former teammate.
"Do you have a lot of questions now?" Valeela asked and answered herself, and said unhurriedly, "Perhaps you can get the answer from a being in charge of good luck.".net
Leonard made a wrong step and almost fell down.
He wanted to question Valeera:
"Are you really the senior deacon of the Goddess Church? How can you say such blasphemous words?!"
Of course, in fact he didn't, because a sudden chuckle in his mind gave up his idea.
