The murder of the bishop of the Diocese of Chicago caused a sensation throughout Chicago, especially the believers in the diocese, who were very angry about it. They believed that Bishop Billy Lee Tuttle was a kind, kind, and compassionate person. A righteous man who regards the Lord's cause as the highest goal in life is the most trusted pastor of all believers in the diocese. The killing of such a man was definitely a provocation to the Lord.
It’s no wonder that this case caused such a big sensation, because in the West, the status of clergy is very special. They are the connection point between believers and God. Any killing of clergy is a heinous felony. This is a common belief in God. In Western countries, this kind of behavior is intolerable. Even the most vicious criminals will not do such a thing. After all, when they die, they need clergy to make their final confession.
What's more, he is also the bishop of a diocese, so his influence is naturally great.
However, the reversal of public opinion is also very fast in this fast-paced society. Just that afternoon, the police announced the collection in Billy Lee Tuttle's secret room. There are many things in it that are expressly prohibited by Catholicism, which shows that this bishop does not want to be as loyal to Jesus Christ as he appears. The more explosive news is that this Catholic bishop actually believes in a cult! This is huge news.
For a time, Billy Lee Tuttle's house became the hottest news location in Chicago. Thousands of cameras and reporters surrounded the house. The Chicago police are also very generous. In addition to not allowing people to enter the house, they can take pictures of everything moved out of the house.
This is naturally Kay's masterpiece. According to general procedures, unless necessary, items at the crime scene cannot be released before the case is clear, not to mention that there are many items in it that belong to Billy Lee Tuttle. Personal belongings, logically speaking, have no direct connection with his murder.
But don’t forget, Kai is a policeman. If anything he says is related to the case, then it is relevant. The relevant items are naturally evidence, and of course the evidence must be taken back. As for being photographed by reporters? That's because the brothers below did things carelessly. Well, we will criticize and educate them, otherwise what? Should they be fired for such a trivial matter? You know, it's hard for the Chicago Police Department to recruit people right now.
In short, a century-old melon was formed in Chicago, and then it lay shot in the Vatican Church in Europe.
What the heck, the world's largest religion actually has a mole, and the mole's level is not low. He is a bishop of a large diocese, and according to the influence of Chicago, this bishop's level is not high within the Holy See. Low.
Perhaps due to the impact of the ongoing child molestation incident by Catholic priests, the Holy See's crisis public relations is very good. As soon as the scandal was exposed by the Chicago media, a plane carried a cardinal and an entire public relations team. Coming to Chicago, they had to minimize the impact of this incident.
The first stop is the Chicago Police Department. After all, this matter is directly handled by the Chicago Police Department. And judging from the speed at which the incident unfolded, the Chicago Police Department definitely did not play a positive role. They have to figure out where the Chicago police stand.
Deputy Director Cooper was distressed. As a Catholic, he could not emotionally accept that his bishop had betrayed their faith. Moreover, it was discovered from the items in the underground chamber that their bishop was not only a cultist. It's so simple, but it also involves something more terrifying.
According to his original intention, this kind of case should be handled in a low-key manner. This is not considered using power for personal gain, it is just doing things within the scope of one's own responsibilities. Unfortunately, Kai and Matthew quit. Matthew was the most direct. He went straight to Director Cooper's office and made a rare noise, even throwing Director Cooper's cup.
In addition, Kai also requested this, so Cooper had no choice but to comply.
There was no way, Matthew was his old subordinate. When Matthew was still a young rookie, Cooper threw him into the gang to work as an undercover agent. He did this for three years and three years, a full ten years of undercover career. Matthew's life was almost ruined. Even when he returned to the police force, he still had major psychological problems. And what about Cooper? Relying on the information provided by Matthew, it cannot be said that he has been promoted step by step, but he has made a lot of contributions to his establishment.
In other words, Cooper owed Matthew something, and Cooper himself thought so.
At the same time, Kai was also involved. Kai was not only the ace of the police department, but also made many contributions, which made Cooper's face great. Coupled with Kai's network, Cooper must also give some face.
So under the strong request of Kai and Matthew, a big drama unfolded in front of everyone.
…
Bishop Parma is very troubled. Since 2002, a report titled "Catholic Priests Molested Boys" by the Boston Global Times has revealed the shady story of sexual abuse by Catholic priests over the years, shocking the entire United States. The Boston Globe devoted a full page to exposing the sexual abuse scandal of Father Geohan. After the news was exposed, thousands of victims of "child sexual abuse" filed complaints. In the past 40 years in the Diocese of Boston, no fewer than 60 priests were criminally charged for reaching out to children.
Attention to the "sexual abuse crisis in the Catholic Church" reached its peak in the early 2000s after the Boston Globe drew the world's attention to the abuses, and a flood of accusations emerged.
This has left the church’s top leaders in a state of distress, having to deal with hundreds of lawsuits every year. Not only that, but the Catholic Church has also been criticized in recent years in terms of public opinion.
There is no way, who calls Catholicism the number one religion in the world? It is too conspicuous.
The Bishop of Parma also disliked his colleagues very much, but for the majesty and face of the Holy See, he had to travel around every year to eliminate these negative influences.
As a member of Opus Dei, Palma was very conservative.
Here I would like to explain Opus Dei. This sect was founded in 1928 by Spanish priest Jose Marjan Escriva. It advocates a return to conservative Roman Catholic values and encourages believers to make huge sacrifices so that they can practice "the good deeds of God." ." The full name is "The Higher Order of the Holy Cross and the Grace of God." This organization operates with strict and ruthless efficiency; anyone is dispensable, but the canon must be followed unconditionally. Opus Dei has always targeted the most talented students from higher education institutions. It is often called the "Holy Ghost Mafia" because of the terrifying atmosphere surrounding the "Black Cloak Dagger".
Although there are many controversies, there is no doubt that this organization has an extremely important position in the Holy See because they have always upheld the idea that the majesty of the Holy See is above all else, and are very valued by the Vatican.
Their response to the scandal is simple: they can remove the clergy involved in the scandal, but they will never allow convictions and trials. Many of the clergy who caused harm have become "cardinals" with high status, and some have even been recommended by the Catholic Church to work in the "Disney Theme Park" in the United States. This is simply sending wolves into the flock...
In short, in one sentence, it is impossible to admit making a mistake!
This method of handling is undoubtedly highly appreciated by the Vatican, so the main members of the sect hold important positions in the Vatican.
The Bishop of Parma is one of the best. It is precisely because of his public relations operations that the scandals over the years have not affected the authority of the Holy See.
But this time, the Bishop of Parma felt that the situation was more serious than all previous scandals.
apostasy!
A term that seems to have existed in the Middle Ages.
But now it happened to a bishop! This is undoubtedly a scandal, a huge scandal that may even affect the authority of the Catholic Church. After all, the apostasy of a bishop and the apostasy of an insignificant believer are two different concepts. If a religion even betrays its high-ranking clergy, what prestige and credibility does this religion have?
Palma came to Chicago in a low-key manner, and then found a city council member and asked him to take him to the Chicago Police Department in person and found Deputy Chief Cooper who was in charge of the case. This is already a very high standard. Otherwise, with the arrogance of the Holy See, it would be impossible for a deputy director to receive a personal visit from a cardinal.
Faced with the visit and mediation of a cardinal, Cooper could not bear the pressure.
This pressure comes not only from faith, but also from votes.
When the police reach Cooper's level, they can no longer simply be called police. It is not an exaggeration to call them politicians. It is true that in the United States a cardinal cannot control a deputy chief of police in a big city, but don't forget, they control the believers.
The Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago is a Roman Catholic provincial archdiocese in the United States and one of the thirty-two archdioceses in the country. It covers Cook and Lake counties in Illinois and governs five parishes. There are 2,364,000 church members!
They don't need to influence the votes of more than two million people at all. Even if they only influence one-tenth of the votes, that is still a very large number.
No politician can ignore such a powerful force.
Cooper wants to be promoted to chief, and basically the entire Chicago Police Department knows this. How dare he offend a cardinal from the Holy See?
But he really can't do it if he goes back on his words to his subordinates. So Deputy Director Cooper simply went all out and found Kai and Matthew directly.
Kai's response method was simpler and he directly took out the videotape.
after……
After watching it for less than ten minutes, the Bishop of Parma screamed at someone to turn off the tape.
"This videotape was obtained from the intelligence team. When they were assisting us in tracking down the murder of Billy Lee Tuttle, they caught a thief selling stolen goods nearby and obtained this videotape from him. .”
Kai ejected the tape from the VCR, put the tape into an evidence bag, and dropped it on his desk. Then he folded his arms and looked at the big shots at the scene as if you just had to figure it out.
This was the first time Cooper saw the tape and he was shocked and felt physically uncomfortable. He also quickly guessed that the reason why Kai and Matthew were so eager to ask him to help get a search warrant must have known about the existence of this videotape, but they didn't say anything. Obviously, they were even confused. He was on guard.
But right now, he had no intention of blaming these two people for being on guard against him.
Because the content of this videotape is too terrifying.
Palma finally resisted the desire to vomit and stared at the videotape. It seemed like he was going to pounce on it and destroy it the next moment.
Unexpectedly, Kai took the initiative to push the videotape in front of Bishop Parma.
"If you are interested, you can take it back and enjoy it slowly. After all, your Catholic Church has done many such disgusting things over the years. But I want to remind you that before we got this videotape, this thing has been ripped off. , As for how many copies have been copied...I don’t know, in short, it is very likely that this stuff will be all over the country tomorrow."
Whether to rip or not is not a matter of Kai's words, so this sentence can be understood as a threat. Of course it might be true, but no one present believed it.
Palma's face turned red and he glared at Kai.
But Kai smiled happily.
"By the way, after a technical comparison, there are several young people without masks in the picture, including former Bishop of the Archdiocese of Chicago Billy Lee Tuttle."
Another kill!
Palma's flushed face immediately turned extremely dark.
Catholicism has dioceses all over the world except China. There are also many bishops, and in many places the sky is high and the emperor is far away. It is very common for people to engage in excessive behavior in private. But the content in this videotape is so heart-rending. Once it is circulated, the prestige of the Catholic Church will definitely suffer the most terrible blow in history.
Even though this was a pagan act of sacrifice, there was an archdiocesan bishop in it!
How does this make others view the Holy See?
Blind or complicit?
This wasn't the end yet, as soon as Kai stretched out his hand, Matthew immediately handed over a piece of information. Kai threw these materials in front of the Bishop of Parma very rudely.
"This is the Siyuan Project hosted by Billy Lee Tuttle during his lifetime. He planned to open missionary schools across the state to enroll poor children for free. But the interesting thing is that children and women continue to disappear around these schools, and even this There have been cases of disappearances in many of the schools. We did a rough calculation and found that at least more than 380 children and women are missing, and this is still on record. You are looking at this information. It shows that some counties and counties have been missing. There are almost 45 canceled disappearance cases, and the missing persons have never appeared again. All the victims of the disappearance cases have been witnessed appearing around the schools run by the Siyuan Project."
"Isn't it interesting that the charity run by the church has turned into a killing factory! I believe the reporters outside will be very interested in this report."
Now Palma's originally dark face immediately turned extremely pale.
For the first time, he hated himself and the Holy See's shielding strategy so much. What kind of monsters had they cultivated?
As soon as these successive scandals break out, he won't need public relations and will just commit suicide to apologize.
He really can’t wash it!
It's useless even if the Pope stands here. Maybe there will be the first Pope in the Holy See who is impeached and steps down.
At this time, the black-clothed attendant who had been standing behind Bishop Parma hurriedly came over and handed Parma first aid medicine to prevent the old man from having a heart attack and dying due to excitement. At the same time, the attendant in black raised his head and looked at Kai: "What do you want?"
Kai smiled this time, very happily.
Hooked!
Plan successful!
…
Flash back to yesterday, two hours after we received the news that Billy Lee Tuttle had been killed.
After Kai came back from the scene, he found everyone and explained the situation.
Judging from the scene, Billy Lee Tuttle died from the poison of the djinn! In other words, he was silenced by his own people!
Matthew lost his temper on the spot and smashed all the tables, chairs and benches in front of him. Sam and Dean even looked at each other, both of them couldn't believe this was true. Martin was at a loss as to what to do. They were obviously at the last step, how could they...
No one expected that the cult would be so decisive. As soon as they learned that Billy Lee Tuttle's underground secret room had been stolen, they killed Billy Lee Tuttle to avoid future troubles.
Kai didn't have any good ideas for a while.
He is indeed very strong. He can kill them all by himself! But he is not God, and it is impossible to know all the members of those cult organizations out of thin air. Now even if he wants to kill someone, he doesn't know who to kill.
What's even more disgusting is that these cult members are not the most important. What is really important is the guys who protect them. As long as they are around, this cult will definitely come back again! Originally, Kai wanted to catch Billy Lee Tuttle, follow the clues, and kill everyone involved.
Even if some people are not suitable for arrest, he can still use the name of Hannibal to kill them all. After all, he is called Hannibal, so his reputation cannot be any worse. In this case, it is natural to make the best use of everything.
But at this moment, a person inspired Kai.
William called immediately after learning that Billy Lee Tuttle had been killed. Based on his experience, he was a little confused about the situation in front of him and had no idea what to do. All he could do was comfort Kai and Matthew and tell them not to lose heart.
At the end, William sighed with emotion, "Blind faith kills people." '
This sentence was like a bolt of lightning piercing the dark clouds, allowing Kai to clear the clouds and see the dawn.
This sentence reminded Kai of a force that he had always ignored, a religious force.
Catholic Church!
Indeed, this cult is very powerful. But what is it compared to Catholicism?
And no matter from which aspect, this cult seems to be an enemy of the Catholic Church, right? Regardless of ideology or vital interests, it is!
This cult is using the power of the Catholic Church to develop and strengthen itself!
No one can tolerate this kind of eating and drinking behavior, right?
The only problem is how to get the Holy See to stand up with them.
So Kay decided to expose the scandal in advance to attract the attention of the Catholic Church, and then use Billy Lee Tuttle's scandal to make a deal with the Catholic Church!
