North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 644
Back in the apartment, Jimmy first said to Nia: "Nia, we are going back to your house today. If there is anything we need to discuss with Kevin and the others."

Nia was still very surprised, and Jimmy sighed: "Our wedding process may need to be adjusted. Let's wait until everyone is here in the evening. It's a bit troublesome."

Nia: "Impossible. We have already started writing invitations. How do we change them now?"

Jimmy: "You can write the invitations again. There is still enough time. Just send them out 6-7 weeks before the wedding."

Nia's face looked a little uncomfortable, and Jimmy had to sit next to her: "I went to the church today, and someone invited us to go to the church for a wedding. It's a very important person. Let's wait until I talk to Kevin in the evening."

Nia and her family are not believers. Jimmy knows this. He is also a false believer. Of course, he has no idea that he must go to a church to hold a wedding. Therefore, after previous communication, he decided to follow the normal procedures and hold the wedding in a hotel. The ceremony, everything had been arranged months in advance, and now a church wedding suddenly appeared on Jimmy's side, which would be troublesome.

Nia nodded, got up and went to the study with her cell phone: "Then let me call home."

Jimmy took off his coat and threw himself directly on the sofa to lie down, put his hands under his head, and stared at the ceiling in a daze.

Today was really a bit too exciting. He was really worried that something would go wrong. Fortunately, he managed to get over it in the end, but he still didn't know what the cool feeling from head to toe was.

In fact, you can probably guess that there are only two kinds of supernatural powers in him. One is his own ability, which is the mind's eye vision, and the other is the black rainbow given by Roland. From this aspect, it should be the black rainbow that is the most critical. I gave myself a helping hand.

Jimmy turned on his mind's eye vision to check the position of his limbs and torso. He didn't find any abnormalities, nor did he have the feeling of abundant energy like in the church. In fact, what he felt at the time was that after the external energy entered the body, it escaped directly, and Instead of filling his body, he was actually protected by the energy that seemed to be a black rainbow.

However, Jimmy also roughly guessed the reason for being imprisoned by the Holy Light energy. The Black Rainbow is obviously completely different from the Holy Light energy. When Father Rodney and the others used their confinement ability, because the power of the Holy Light was effective in a range, the body He was also listed as a heretic by the Holy Light because of the Black Rainbow. It was Father Rodney who pulled him out later, so that he was not regarded as a heretic by the other priests and performed an exorcism ceremony on the spot.

The reason why the black rainbow came out in the church this time is probably related to the intensity of the holy light energy. When I was imprisoned before, the energy was not very strong and my body could withstand it. But this time in the church, eight priests added The intensity of the holy light energy generated by the old Bible in Father White's hand was probably off the charts.

Maybe there was something wrong with his body in the Holy Light, so the Black Rainbow appeared and took over the flow of energy in his body, allowing the Holy Light to enter the body and be dispersed smoothly. Father White and the others would not doubt his performance at all. , because the holy light enters the body, if it is an ordinary evil spirit, it must have been destroyed by the holy light.

This is a blessing in disguise for him. Black Rainbow has been slowly transforming and enhancing his mental abilities. The abnormality in his body should also come from Black Rainbow. Otherwise, he would not be able to fight the possessed Bennett for so long. It can be said that he is now The enhancement of abilities should all come from Black Rainbow, including several upgrades of the Heart's Eye.

If I hadn't been stimulated by the holy light energy this time, I don't know when I would have felt the presence of Black Rainbow so clearly. But is the appearance of Black Rainbow this time due to my own body's autonomous reaction or is Black Rainbow itself in similar danger? His consciousness was uncertain. The key was that Roland was too rough in doing things. He only sent a black rainbow and did not come to explain to Jimmy. He had to figure everything out by himself, which made him really tired.

Nia came out after making a phone call and sat directly on Jimmy's lap, "What are you thinking about?"

Jimmy: "I'm thinking about the church. By the way, I'll show you something good."

Jimmy did not get up, but took out the exorcism badge given by Father White from his pocket.This is a round copper cake, a little over one centimeter thick, and quite substantial. He had just put it in the pocket behind his buttocks, and when he took it out now, he felt panicked.

Jimmy: "St. Benedict's Exorcism Badge, a good thing given by the Church, a real exorcism tool."

Nia reached out and took it, turning it over and over to look at it. She was not an exorcist expert or a member of the church, so naturally she had never seen this thing.After flipping through it a few times and observing the cross and letters on it, Nia returned the badge to Jimmy: "Is this why you went out today?"

Jimmy: "Well, I went to Staten Island and helped them a lot some time ago. This is a thank you gift."

Nia raised her eyebrows and asked in surprise: "Isn't it just a simple help? Although I haven't seen this before, but just from the look and the name you said, I know that this thing is definitely not simple."

Jimmy: "It's not a big favor. I just saved a priest by the way."

Nia: "You have destroyed three or four suits during this period. How could it be a simple matter? Just because I don't ask doesn't mean I can't see it. What you encountered is definitely not a simple matter."

Jimmy curled his lips, "It's not a big problem. Don't worry, I'm so strong there will be no problem."

Nia: "By the way, let's make a few more suits when you have time. The clothes in your wardrobe can't withstand such consumption."

Jimmy: "Well, I'll contact you later and make an appointment. Is your wedding dress ready?"

Nia: "Not yet. I've tried it twice and I'm still adjusting. I'll definitely make it in time for the wedding."

In the evening, Jimmy and Nia came to Nia's house together and had dinner. After dinner, the family sat in the living room and chatted, and then Jimmy revealed the purpose of his visit.

Kevin: "You're talking about the old church on Staten Island?"

Jimmy: "Yes, St. Andrew's Church. Father White, the director there, invited me."

Kevin asked doubtfully: "I remember that church doesn't hold wedding ceremonies? Only some special events will be there."

Jimmy: "I helped them a little, and Father White had a good impression of me."

Kevin stood up: "Come to the study with me."

Jimmy also stood up and left. Kevin obviously knew something, and it might be inconvenient to continue talking about it.

Kevin first went to the bookshelf and poured two glasses of wine, then took it to the rest area and sat down, "Tell me, what happened? If it was just a small favor, even Bishop Anderson of the archdiocese would It’s impossible to let you use St. Andrew’s Church.”

Jimmy took out the exorcism badge: "Well, because of some things, I am now a supernumerary exorcist of the Holy See. This is the St. Benedict's exorcism badge. Father White just gave it to me today."

Kevin: "Are you able to perform exorcisms now? Didn't you say it wasn't possible when you went to Buffalo to help Harrington solve the problem with the villa?" Jimmy: "It's just to help the church priests do some things. It’s a sign that they trust me more.”

Kevin: "Is there anything else?"

Jimmy: "Although I am not a fanatical believer, I can be considered a believer to some extent. I am one of my own with them. The reason why Father White invited me to hold a wedding at his place probably has something to do with this. I know that none of your family are believers, so I didn’t agree to him directly. If we decide to hold a wedding there, we will probably become true believers in the future. It’s not just me, maybe you..."

Kevin was drinking while thinking about this matter. His family has always been in the Democratic Party. It is not a big problem to have an apparent believer. He is not running for Congress, so the identity issue is fine for him. Ignore it, but if the wedding is held in St. Andrew's Church, it basically means that they are bound to the church.

Kevin is now the deputy chief of the NYPD. If the results of recent operations are basically no surprise, he can continue to rise. If he can get some support from the church, there seems to be no harm.

Kevin: "Aren't your affairs, those exorcisms, dangerous? They give you so many benefits just to make you sacrifice your life for them, right?"

Jimmy: "The scales must be balanced. If you gain something, you will naturally have to bear the corresponding consequences. Judging from the current situation, becoming an exorcist of the church is not a big problem for me. I have enough ability to do it. These things, but for you, Nia’s wedding in the church may change some of your positions.”

Kevin shook his head: "It doesn't matter, don't think about it. If you think it's okay, we can change the wedding process and have the ceremony in the church and then go to the hotel banquet hall."

Jimmy: "Do we need to redesign the invitations? Also, I have never seen the process of getting married in a church before, and it is quite troublesome to get from Staten Island to Manhattan..."

Kevin: "These are not problems, but the temporary change of the wedding venue does need to be adjusted, and the number of people the church can accommodate needs to be communicated with Father White. I have the impression that the church is quite big, but it is the largest in New York after all. One of the old churches certainly can’t accommodate too many people.”

Jimmy: "Then you come with me?"

Kevin didn't answer. He drank and thought, "I'll contact them myself, but I need you to say hello to them in advance."

Jimmy: "Okay, let me tell Father Rodney."

Kevin: "By the way, have you found your best man and flower girl?"

Jimmy sighed, this is a big trouble. Most of the people he has contacted and met in the past few years are older than him, whether it is the hotel, the FBI, or the CIA. As for people in society, in this regard There are really very few, and he is not the kind of person who likes to make friends.

In fact, I had already been considering the candidate for the best man before. If it didn't work out, I had no choice but to find Mark as his replacement. At least he was a few years younger than Jimmy, and he still looked young.

Jimmy: "What do you think of Elliot as a flower boy? Elliot Green, Alex Green's son."

Kevin: "You just have to decide for yourself. You must make a decision in advance to avoid trouble later."

Jimmy: "Yeah, I'll get it done as soon as possible."

Kevin: "Let me discuss the invitations with Father White before making a decision. If the wedding is held in a church, the previous invitations will need to be adjusted."

The invitation is not a blank piece of paper. The previous invitation was customized by the hotel. Now the hotel only handles wedding banquets. The wedding is in the church, so naturally it has to be customized. It also involves the question of how many people can accept it. Invitations to the church, how many guests can the church hold...

After getting the customized invitations, you still need to handwrite the invitations. These things cannot be done in a day or two. There are still more than two months until the wedding. It takes at least one and a half months to mail out the invitations. Some people also need Jimmy and Nick. Ya personally delivered it to the door. In short, time is very tight now, and both Jimmy and others need to re-plan.

Jimmy shook his head helplessly: "Everything was ready, but now so many things suddenly happen, it's really torturous."

Kevin: "Don't just see these bad things, think about the good things. Do you know how much attention you will attract if you hold your wedding at St. Andrew's Church? These will also become your capital." "

Jimmy: "Hey, it's useless for me to pay more attention now. I originally planned to be promoted to supervisory agent this year, but it turned out that I was stuck because of academic issues. I have to wait for at least a year and a half."

While drinking, Kevin suddenly choked on Jimmy's words, coughed, and then laughed, "As you can imagine, I had thought about this problem before, but at that time I thought I would have to wait until your next promotion. It will only appear, but I didn’t expect it to appear now.”

Jimmy: "Well, the entry standard for the FBI is a bachelor's degree or above. When I joined the job, it was because the FBI urgently needed to expand its manpower after 911 that we had such an arrangement. Otherwise, I would still be a county police officer who drives and patrols the road. Maybe I can work in the police department. If you move up a level or two in the bureau, your salary base will increase."

Kevin: "Don't worry, you are still young and time is in your favor. It's good to settle down for a year or two more. When you get promoted in the future, others won't be able to give any reason to stop you."

Jimmy: "Well, there's nothing anyone can do about it. It's just that the higher you go, the fewer positions you'll get. I hope there will be a position for me by then."

After chatting casually about daily life, Kevin and Jimmy left the study and returned to the living room to chat with Nia and her mother. They couldn't stay in the study all night.

There will be a lot of troubles in the future. Jimmy shouldn't leave everything to others to handle. He is probably going to be busy too. There is also the matter of sending invitations in person. He needs to send invitations to a lot of people. He probably only has to run around. It takes a lot of time.Fortunately, he had informed Ruiz in advance that he would just take a few days off.

After going to work, Jimmy found that Mark was not in the office. It seemed that he was still helping Mahone. He was now the commander-in-chief. The key was that there were many white-collar cases. Unlike the homicide team, it would be good for Mark to assist in the investigation, at least. I have gained some experience in different cases, but Jimmy is a little depressed, and it is difficult to catch fish.

Jimmy thought about it for a while and decided to make a call first. Kevin's words on the weekend reminded him that he still had to think carefully about the best man, but it would be a tragedy if he didn't have the right person. After thinking about the people around him, he was actually the most suitable one. Instead, it was his friend from the bar, Woody. He was single, and although he was a little older than Jimmy, he was at least pretty good-looking and not embarrassing.

However, after thinking about Woody, Jimmy suddenly thought of a perhaps more suitable person over the weekend, Justin from Little Rock. In terms of helping Jimmy, in addition to various big guys, Justin did help him a lot in the early days.

Justin has not been in contact for a while. Jimmy thought about it. It is not convenient to meet and chat now. Let's call him first and ask him. Maybe he will refuse.
