Chapter 22: Evil flowers blooming in the evil land (please read it later!)
Early in the morning, Ash woke up from his bed and stretched.
Ash touched his waist and didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that his kidneys seemed a little empty today.
But when I looked at the panel, the red, blue and green bars were all at 100%.
Shaking his head, Ash didn't think much about it, got up to fetch water to wash, and happened to meet Valentine who was also fetching water to wash.
Ash suddenly thought of a question from yesterday and asked directly, "Valentin, do you know where that old guy went?"
"What old thing?" Valentine asked in confusion.
"It's old Sister Colleen." Ash explained.
"I'm not sure about that." Valentine shook his head. "It seems that the nun has returned home. That's what the priest said."
"Oh." Ash nodded, but a gloomy look appeared in his eyes.
Go home? After priests join the church, they can say that there is no such concept as a secular home. The church is their home.
Although some priests have chaotic private lives, they would never utter the word "home".
And even if she quits the church, that old thing has no home to return to. She joined the Church of Darkness after losing her husband and son in middle age. Where is her home?
"Sure enough, this place has been corrupted for a long time?"
After washing up, Ash headed to the church.
Inside the church, more than twenty children were praying, and Sister Maria was leading them.
Ash stood at the window, watching silently.
Just as the prayer was almost over, a middle-aged man with a somewhat frail face came out wearing the priest uniform of the Church of Night.
Father Bertrand nodded to Maria and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Sister Maria. I feel much more relaxed with you around."
As he spoke, his cloudy eyes were looking Maria up and down, like a hungry old wolf.
"This is what I should do." Maria said with a smile, but there was a hint of disgust in her eyes.
She had seen many people's dreams these days, and the dream of the priest in front of her was the dirtiest. She couldn't understand how such a person could be responsible for the management of a church.
Bertrand stretched out his skinny hand like a chicken claw and reached out to Maria: "Sister Maria, can you do me a small favor? My waist has been a little bit bad recently. Can you help me treat it?"
Maria took a step back and avoided Bertrand's hand:
"I can't cure your back pain either, and even if you suppress it, Father Bertrand can do it yourself, right? Have you even forgotten the words of the Goddess?"
Bertrand withdrew his hand, a trace of resentment appeared in his eyes, and he laughed: "How is that possible? I just wanted to be lazy for a while."
"Being lazy is not a good habit, Father," Maria said calmly.
"When people get old, they always become lazy." Bertrand looked at the children next to him, his eyes full of greed, "Unlike these children, they are full of energy."
The children couldn't help but tremble.
Ash narrowed his eyes slightly. At this moment, the bloodline of [Sun Quetzalcoatl] reacted, but the reaction disappeared quickly.
Glancing at the children, Bertrand frowned, "Why are there three children missing?"
He always remembered the number of his children very clearly, after all, they were the source of his energy.
"I don't know either." Maria shook her head slightly. "I asked the children, but they didn't know either."
"Really?" Bertrand looked at the children with a somewhat cold tone, "Can anyone tell me where Dicka and the others went?"
The children were silent. Bertrand looked around and finally landed on a boy who was trembling slightly: "Chica, do you know?"
"I don't know." The boy pursed his lips and said in a trembling voice.
"You're lying!" Bertrand suddenly shouted, his voice as sharp as a vulture.
The boy Chica trembled even more: "I didn't lie, Father." Bertrand came to the boy Chica and looked at him coldly: "I didn't lie, what are you afraid of?"
"It's not okay to be a bad boy, Chica, come with me to the confessional."
When Chica mentioned the confessional, his body trembled even more violently. When Bertrand grabbed him, he felt the coldness coming from his palm.
The boy finally couldn't resist the fear in his heart and shouted, "I said, I said, Dicka and the others are dead!"
"Dead?" Bertrand frowned. "How did he die?"
"She killed them. It was the new Sister Maria who killed them!" The boy raised his finger and pointed at Maria not far away.
Everyone was stunned, and Maria's face was full of disbelief. Only Ash, who was standing by the window, sighed, because he knew it would be like this.
Bertrand felt a perverted joy in his heart, but he said coldly on the surface: "You lied again. Why did Sister Maria kill Dika and the others?"
"I don't know. After Dicka knocked me out, I woke up in the nun's room." The boy Chica said, "She asked me to forget what happened today."
"Oh?" Bertrand looked at Sister Maria, "Sister Maria, do you have anything to say?"
"I didn't kill them." Maria frowned. "When I rushed over, the three children were already dead, and there was only Chica in a sack next to them."
"So you have no evidence to prove that you didn't kill anyone?" A greedy smile appeared on Bertrand's face.
"You have no evidence to prove that I killed anyone." Maria frowned even deeper. She could clearly feel the malice coming from Bertrand.
"This is making it very difficult for me, Sister." Bertrand patted Chica's shoulder. "It will be hard for me to explain to my superiors that I lost three children."
"You get out," Bertrand said to the remaining children.
The children immediately left with a sense of relief.
Bertrand took a quick glance and was stunned when he saw Ash standing outside the window. He had never seen such a beautiful child, but it was a pity that he had yellow skin.
"Please leave, we have something important to discuss here." Bertrand said to Yaxiu.
Ash looked at Bertrand's face and suddenly smiled: "I think I can stay."
As he said that, he climbed in through the window.
"Ash!" Maria couldn't help but scream in surprise when she saw Ash climbing in through the window.
"Do you know him?" Bertrand looked at Maria.
"You don't know him?" Maria asked.
"I should know her?" Bertrand looked at Ash who was closing the window. He should have an impression of such a beautiful child.
"You should know me." Ash closed the window and looked at Bertrand. "My name is Ash. I asked you to use my kitchen more than half a month ago."
When Ash said this, Bertrand immediately realized, "So it's you, but why have you changed so much?"
"Because I have awakened my bloodline." Ash smiled, with a hint of greed on his white teeth.
Bloodline? Bertrand frowned, and then greed rose in his eyes. Bloodline people are excellent sacrifices.
"Do you want to know what bloodline I awakened, Father Bertrand?" said Yaxiu.
"What bloodline?" Bertrand asked curiously.
"Kill your bloodline."
