I'm the fourth calamity, but they call me a saint
Chapter 29 Twilight Blessing
The bishop's kneeling made tens of thousands of workers feel complicated and panic-stricken.
When they faced this old man, they were full of gratitude. He was the Bishop of Twilight, a big shot who could be elected to the upper council, but he was rooted in Yuguang and devoted almost half of his life to the workers. .
Now he drags his old body to his knees, and no one thinks he can bear this.
The workers in the Houshan Cemetery who were angry and wanted an explanation all knelt down. Everyone felt that they were not qualified to stand and face the kneeling old man.
Behind the bishop, there was a priest with a face full of self-blame and grief. He quickly stepped forward and wanted to help him up, but the withered hand stopped him.
His voice was not loud, but in the quiet night, most people present could hear him clearly.
"The corpses in the cemetery were stolen. This is the responsibility of the church, and it is also my responsibility. I promise to investigate this matter as soon as possible and give everyone an explanation. No matter who the person who committed such a crime is, he will be handed over to the police." Public Judgment!”
The bishop's assurance had great conviction in the hearts of the laborers.
He only made a verbal guarantee, and the workers dispersed. The back of the church, which was originally overcrowded, became empty again, leaving only Twilight's teaching staff, the labor union, and the people from the police department led by Tian Yuan. .
With the support of the union president and Tian Yuan, the bishop's stooped body stood up and sat back in the wheelchair.
He looked extremely tired, leaning on the back of the chair, and raised his cloudy eyes to look at Tian Yuan.
"Superintendent Tian Yuan"
Tian Yuan could show off his power in front of Feng Yanyi, and could put on airs in front of Li Ming, but he did not dare to put on airs in front of the bishop.
He bowed his head and his tone was more respectful than ever before.
"I'm here, Mr. Bishop."
"Can I safely leave this matter in the cemetery to you?"
Tian Yuan, who was already annoyed by the lack of progress in Fengzi's case and could not come up with an explanation within the seven-day period given to him by the parliament, did not dare to hesitate or refuse at this time.
He stood at attention and solemnly bowed to the bishop and promised.
"I will investigate this matter, please feel free to leave it to me!"
"That's good. The people need an explanation, and the workers also need a belief to persevere."
The bishop sighed and shook his head, motioning to the nanny behind him to push the wheelchair out of the back hill.
After he left, Tian Yuan no longer concealed his extremely ugly expression.
Almost everything is weighing on him, including the Fengzi escape case that has attracted the attention of the entire parliament, the torture and murder case that frightened Yu Guang's workers, and now the empty grave case that is enough to shock the entire sun!
Except for the murder case, he couldn't afford to delay the other two cases. The parliament was his immediate boss, and the bishop was a big shot he couldn't afford to offend.
Tian Yuan shouted in a voice that was almost self-defeating.
"Check! Check them all for me! Let people check the time when the cemetery was hollowed out! Check all the people who have had contact with the cemetery over the years!"
Levi stood behind the crowd and watched the whole process with cold eyes.
Fengzi stood beside him, holding his sleeve, her pale face full of worry.
"Why would someone steal so many bodies?"
"Let's think about how to solve our own troubles first." Levi said softly.
Fengzi could not help but turn her head to look at him nervously.
"What trouble are we in now? Have any police officers spotted us?"
Levi looked around and asked a seemingly irrelevant question.
"Did you see Nanny Cheng this afternoon?"
Fengzi shook her head.
"I haven't seen her. She seems to have lost track of what she was doing after lunch."
When I saw Nanny Cheng again, it was already the morning after the incident happened.
Because of the empty grave case, the entire church staff began to be questioned and investigated by the police one by one, causing the choir training to be suspended for the next day.
At the same time, on this day, Grandma Cheng reappeared to conduct the first screening of the already over-subscribed choir.
Two children who struggled to recite the Gospels because they were illiterate were screened out. This made the atmosphere of the choir, which was originally relaxed and cheerful, become tense.
If there is selection, there will definitely be competition. If there is competition, then everyone's relationship will not become so pure.
At the same time, after this screening, Grandma Cheng also called out five people individually for a private conversation.
Levi and Fengzi are included among these five people.
They were brought into a room. The other three children all looked uneasy. After all, two of them had just been kicked out, and now five of them were called out alone. It would easily make people feel bad. association.
Li Wei and Fengzi looked at each other, and Fengzi's face was full of embarrassment. She thought this was the trouble Li Wei said they would encounter yesterday.
But Li Wei himself understood that things were probably not that simple.
After closing the door, Grandma Cheng's sharp eyes, which usually make people afraid to look directly, felt inexplicably nervous and anxious at this time for some reason.
"You are the children with the best performance in these three days, so the church will give you extra rewards. There will be a Twilight Blessing tomorrow that only faculty members can participate in. You can also follow it."
Hearing these words, the worries on the faces of the three children immediately disappeared, and even Fengzi's expressions relaxed.
Mrs. Cheng brought the five of them to such a small room, and it seemed that she only wanted to talk about this matter. After that, she let them go.
On the way back, Levi asked Fengzi thoughtfully.
"Are there scientists in the Twilight Church?"
This should be a common sense question. Fengzi didn't think it was strange when Levi asked it. He had been imprisoned for 17 years, so it was normal for him not to understand.
"Of course, Twilight was founded by a great brain biologist, and almost every priest is a doctor. The high-ranking bishops of the church are all in the Central Biological Institute, and the bishop of the Sun Diocese is also. He stayed in the Central Biological Institute when he was young."
Fengzi also explained to Levi about the blessing of Twilight.
"In addition to biology, the Twilight Church basically gathers all the top biological talents in the dungeon. They are very experienced in solving bacterial diseases, improving human quality and prolonging life, so the Twilight Blessing is sought after by many rich people, but the Archbishop's blessing is generally something that money can't buy."
"The blessing that the church invites us to participate in tomorrow should be just a small blessing hosted by a senior priest. Even so, it is a rare blessing for ordinary people."
